Chapter 1339: On Mount Tongtian!

Before Ye Yuan was a mountain of divine-grade spiritual herbs.

Back then, refining the One-Star Heavenly Pattern Pill was targeted training.

All the pills he refined were ultimately for the sake of producing the One-Star Heavenly Pattern Pill.

Now, Ye Yuan intended to push the One-Star初级 Pill God to its limit!

At this point, the powerful supply system of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion became evident.

At Ye Yuan's request, Yang Rui had procured many very obscure divine-grade spiritual herbs.

Now, piled before him were thousands of varieties.

Of course, this was not all the first-tier divine-grade spiritual herbs in the Tongtian Realm.

Nor did Ye Yuan need all of them; he only needed a catalyst, an opportunity to comprehend the Heavenly Dao!

After the first decade, Ye Yuan began the long process of comprehending the Dao of Alchemy.

He devoted himself to experiencing and understanding the medicinal properties of each herb.

Ye Yuan had done this work before in the Immortal Forest World, so it was not unfamiliar.

However, the difficulty had increased countless times.

Time flowed within the Town Boundary Stele, and in the blink of an eye, a hundred and twenty years passed.

In these hundred and twenty years, Ye Yuan finally thoroughly comprehended the medicinal properties of thousands of spiritual herbs.

Ye Yuan's path of alchemy could be summed up in ten words: a solid foundation and diligent cultivation!

Spending a hundred and twenty years fully immersed in understanding medicinal properties was an extremely tedious task for others.

Even among alchemists, few could endure such solitude.

But Ye Yuan could!

These hundred and twenty years laid a very solid foundation for Ye Yuan's divine pill refining.

After a hundred and twenty years, Ye Yuan finally began to refine pills.

His method of pill refining differed from others; he followed his inspiration and was not constrained by formulas.

There were successes and failures.

Yet Ye Yuan found this monotonous life sweet as honey.

Spring passed and autumn arrived, cold came and heat went, as time flowed year after year.

Finally, one day, a flash of insight crossed Ye Yuan's mind. It was like a lightning bolt tearing across the sky.

So he set down his pill refining and began to contemplate the Small Tongtian Mountain before him!

The Small Tongtian Mountain, which had been still all along, now emitted a dazzling light.

This light was multicolored and magnificent.

Ye Yuan, immersed in it, felt as if he had fallen into a fairyland.

He had finally used the Dao of Alchemy to knock open this door!

But for Ye Yuan, this was only the first step; he was not creating a cultivation method solely for pill refining.

All along, the various cultivation methods and martial techniques Ye Yuan had practiced began to churn incessantly in his mind.

Lingzhe Nine Yang Divine Art, Overlord Dragon Rebirth Art, Evil-Slaying Sword Art, Nine-Character Mantra...

At this moment, Ye Yuan was like someone cooking a delicious dish.

These cultivation methods and martial techniques were the ingredients, and the Small Tongtian Mountain was the big pot.

Ye Yuan was immersed in it, completely forgetting time.

No one knew how long passed before the rudiments of a cultivation method gradually formed in Ye Yuan's mind.

Ye Yuan constantly revised and perfected, then revised and perfected again.

...

At this moment, at the very center of the Tongtian Realm, the sacred land of all martial artists—Mount Tongtian—suddenly became wildly turbulent.

Spiritual energy, like a tsunami, cascaded down from the summit of Mount Tongtian.

This spiritual energy was too vast to absorb.

The immense force directly flung the experts who were comprehending the Dao on Mount Tongtian into the air, and cries of pain rang out incessantly.

No matter how strong their strength!

This was the true might of heaven and earth, something no human power could contend with.

Brilliant, resplendent rays of light enveloped the entire Mount Tongtian, making the already mysterious mountain even more unfathomable.

After a few breaths, Mount Tongtian was empty of people.

"This... what is happening to Mount Tongtian?"

"Who knows what's happening! Ouch, I've cultivated to the True God realm, but I've never fallen so hard!"

"It's incredible. I've never seen Mount Tongtian unleash such terrifying heavenly might!"

...

At the foot of Mount Tongtian, large numbers of martial artists were sprawled on the ground, dizzy and disheveled.

But what shocked them even more was why Mount Tongtian had undergone such a change.

"Not good, the spiritual energy is rushing down! Run!"

Suddenly, someone shouted, and everyone started sprinting.

This vast spiritual energy, like an avalanche descending from the sky, would at least peel off a layer of skin if one were buried in it.

They had never seen such terrifying spiritual energy!

"Boom...!"

The spiritual energy hit the ground with a huge roar, rippling outward into the distance.

"Ha... hahaha, I'm about to break through! I've been stuck at a bottleneck for tens of thousands of years, and now I'm finally going to break through!"

"I'm about to break through too! Hahaha..."

"I never thought I'd break through to True God! Hahaha..."

...

After the spiritual energy landed, it finally became somewhat thinner.

Battered by this vast spiritual energy, the martial artists who had been cultivating on Mount Tongtian turned misfortune into blessing; many broke through their bottlenecks.

Those who did not break through still saw a significant increase in their cultivation.

"Not good, we can't break through now; another wave of spiritual energy is coming down!" Just then, someone shouted again.

On Mount Tongtian, spiritual energy that had nearly solidified was once again cascading down like an avalanche.

...

At this moment, in the void beyond everyone's sight, several voices were conversing.

"Life, among us, you have lived the longest. Can you tell us what exactly is going on?" a steady voice said.

"I don't know! Since I attained the Dao, I have never seen Mount Tongtian so agitated!" an aged voice replied.

At these words, everyone fell silent again.

Suddenly, another person spoke: "No, this time Mount Tongtian gives me the feeling... as if it's celebrating something!"

"Celebrating? Haha, Thunder Ancestor, are you joking? Mount Tongtian is an inanimate object. Though it contains the might of the Heavenly Dao, how could it possess human emotions? Haha... I must admire your wild imagination!" Another person immediately retorted.

At this point, Life Dao Ancestor suddenly spoke again: "I rather think Thunder Ancestor has a point! Look, this is the third wave of spiritual energy avalanche! Once such vast spiritual energy spreads, who knows how many people will benefit and break through! This gives me the feeling... of benefiting all living beings!"

Life Dao Ancestor's words made everyone fall silent again.

"But... even if it is as you say, even you have never seen Mount Tongtian like this. Why would it suddenly become like this?" another person questioned.

Life Dao Ancestor said slowly: "That is because Mount Tongtian has never encountered a person or event worthy of such a response. But... aside from us few, who else is worthy of it doing so?"

Another silence.

After a long time, Life Dao Ancestor looked up to the heavens and sighed: "Mount Tongtian, Mount Tongtian, what kind of existence are you? What lies at the summit?"
