Chapter 679: Recipe for the Demon-Breaking Pill

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“That’s right.” Tian Yi nodded. “Any cultivator that skips stages in his training would be afraid of developing mental demons. This Demon-Breaking Pill is a tenth-grade pill that would help people remain pure in heart even after skipping whole cultivation stages in their training. It will help people get rid of their mental demons. The only thing is... A main ingredient in this recipe is the Thousand Leaves Spirit Flower.”

Lonemoon lowered his gaze. He had heard of the Demon-Breaking Pill before, but he never heard that the Radish Flower.. Ah pui, the Thousand Leaves Spirit Flower was needed to refine these pills. But each small realm had different practices. It was possible that the recipe in this small world would be different from others.

As he pondered, he paid little attention to the written recipe. Instead, he handed it back to Tian Yi.

Tian Yi stared at him blankly. He shared the recipe with Brother Lonemoon so that he could obtain his opinions on these things. He did not expect Brother Lonemoon to be of such good character that he did not even bother to take advantage of the recipe in his hands. He barely took a look at it before returning it back to Tian Yi. Suddenly, Tian Yi felt his heart grow strangely warm. He was absolutely right to trust this man. He was a good man!

“Brother Tian Yi, you wanted to ask me if there is any way I can help you find a Thousand Leaves Spirit Flower?” Lonemoon asked.

“That’s right!” Tian Yi nodded with some hope. “Brother Lonemoon, do you know of any way?”

Lonemoon did not answer him immediately. Instead, he changed the topic. “Brother Tian Yi, you seem so worried about getting rid of mental demons. But nobody we know is showing any signs that they have mental demons. None of the disciples in the sect have skipped cultivation levels as well, neither are they close to going through lightning tribulations. Why are you so eager to refine these Demon-Breaking Pills?”

Tian Yi’s expression changed at once. As if realising something, he became angry. “Ai! Isn’t it all for Junior Brother Tian Ji? It is all his dong that my Gui Yi Sect has been implicated!”

“Oh?” Lonemoon narrowed his eyes. Why was this Tian Ji’s fault? “What has all of these got to do with Supremacy Tian Ji?”

“This thing is related to the Demon-Breaking Pill as well,” Tian Yi said angrily. He sighed and continued, “500 years ago, Junior Brother Tian Ji was only a Nascent Soul cultivator. He was in a small mystic realm together with Tai Yan Sect’s Supremacy Teng Jue. In that mystic realm, they found a portion of an inheritance of pill techniques. This recipe for the Demon-Breaking Pill was one of the recipes in that inheritance. But Supremacy Teng Jue was a taliman cultivator. Pill techniques were useless to him. Thus, the two sects struck a deal This inheritance was to be left to Gui Yi Sect.”

Tian Yi kept the recipe for the Demon-Breaking Pill and continued, “After that, we agreed that each sect would contribute a portion of spirit herbs. The disciples of Gui Yi sect would then refine these herbs into pills, and split them among the two sects once again.”

Lonemoon nodded. This seemed fair. Since the inheritance went to Gui Yi Sect, they had to be put in charge of refining the pills. What’s more, Tai Yan Sect would already have contributed half the spirit herbs required.

“Since Junior Brother Tian Ji was the one who found this inheritance, he was the one who was allowed to pass it down. Some valuable pills were also exclusively refined by him!” Tian Yi said bitterly. It was obvious from his tone that he was envious of Tian Ji. “So all these years, Junior Brother has been the one refining the pills that we contribute to Tai Yan Sect. Originally, the agreement was to refine the pills once every ten years. We will be due to hand them to pills in three months...”

“He didn’t refine them?” Lonemoon exclaimed, shocked.

“That’s right!” Tian Yi responded, panicked. “Junior Brother Tian Ji went to look for Yu Luan a few days ago and said he had no time to refine the pills because he had been locked away! Yu Luan had no other choice but to look for me.” The more he spoke, the more anxious Tian Yi became. “Tai Yan Sect is the number one sect in the world. Although we have good relations with them, they’re bound to get angry if we go back on our word. This will undoubtedly affect the sects’ relations. For all we know, they might even blame our sect for keeping all the pills to ourselves.”

What’s more, ever since this Soul Formation Sword Cultivator Yi Qing came to Gui Yi Sect, Tai Yan Sect had become more and more wary of them. From time to time, they would even find fault with them. If Gui Yi Sect made this mistake, they might just be giving Tai Yan Sect the excuse to wipe them out!

“Then... This Demon-Breaking Pill is...?”

“Yu Luan asked around about this Supremacy Teng Jue. Apparently, he has a disciple whom he dotes on – a nephew – who got accidentally injured by a fiendish cultivator. He’s lost his sentience. The Demon-Breaking Pill would be able to clear his heart and make it pure again. It can also help him to recover his sentience. Supremacy Teng Jue was the one who found this recipe together with Junior Brother Tian Ji. As long as Junior Brother Tian Ji says something, it should not matter that this batch of Demon-Breaking Pills are late. However...” He didn’t think that this recipe would require Thousand Leaves Spirit Flowers.

This was a mess that Tian Ji had created once again. Lonemoon recalled the recipe from before and asked, “I have something I do not understand. Since Supremacy Tian Ji was able to give this recipe to you, it shows that there’s nothing that he’s trying to keep for himself. Since he’s already gained the inheritance, why doesn’t he just pass it down to the disciples in the sect? For all we know, the disciples might be able to rush the pills out. Why must he leave it to you alone?”

“Brother Lonemoon, there are things you might not understand,” Tian Yi began to explain. “Although there’s nothing special about the recipe, for some reason, only Junior Brother Tian Ji is able to refine some of the pills in the inheritance. It’s the same for me. Just knowing the recipe alone will not help me refine the pills that I need.”

Lonemoon stared blankly at him. This was strange. He did not know there was such a thing? The so-called inheritance should have only contained some manuals on pill refinement, as well as some recipes at most. Tian Yi was a tenth-stage alchemist. His practical experience must have been more than sufficient. With the correct recipe, why would he not be able to refine the pills?

Unless... Tian Ji’s pill refinement process had a special step inside of it that other people could not replicate. This technique must have an effect on the success rate of the pill refinement. And there were only several things that affected the pill refinement process. One was the ingredients. Another was the spell. And a third was... the fire!

Heh heh, this was a coincidence. It was no wonder that Tian Ji wanted to hold that fiendish cultivator captive for so many years. He wanted the dark fire!

Pills that were refined using dark fires were naturally different from the ones that were refined using normal fires.

“Brother Lonemoon, do you know of any way to solve this problem with the Thousand Leaves Spirit Flower?” Tian Yi could not help but ask.

Lonemoon glanced at him. Of course he had a way. There were many such flowers in his storage room. All of them were flowers that Radish tried to give to Shen Ying, which Lonemoon later kept away. The only thing was that he could not just take them out. First and foremost, he would not have a convincing story to tell. What’s more, Radish had already ascended to immortality for a long time. It was no longer an ordinary vegetation spirit. its flowers were thus already top-grade immortal herbs. If Lonemoon brought them down to be used for pill refinement in the lower realm, he was unsure what consequences there might be. Thus, there was no way he could just take them out so easily.

He smiled politely and said, “I’ll ask around for you on this matter. I haven’t seen such a flower with my own eyes either.”

“Even you have no solution?” Tian Yi was crestfallen. He slumped down in his seat, visibly disappointed.

Lonemoon took one glance at him and could not help but added, “There are so many spirit herbs in this world. Brother Tian Yi, why must you look for the Thousand Leaves Spirit Flower specifically?” As far as Lonemoon knew, there was not just one method to produce the Demon-Breaking Pill. He alone already knew more than ten different recipes for the same pill. None of them required Radish’s flowers.

“Brother Lonemoon, you must be joking.” Tian Yi smiled bitterly. “Apart from being able to improve the quality of pills, the Thousand Leaves Spirit Flower is also a wood-elemental ingredient. Thus, it has the effect of warming one’s body and clearing one’s mind. That’s the reason it can be used to refine Demon-Breaking Pills.”

“But improving the quality of the pills aside, there are many other spirit herbs that can also clear one’s mind.”
