436: Break out, Dan Gui

[ You quickly arrived beside the Universe Barrier. ]

[ You began to attempt to blast it open. ]

[ But who would have thought. ]

[ Even though your dual cultivation Realm has now reached the Peak of the 18th Realm, with your own strength, it is difficult to break it directly. ]

[ To avoid being discovered, you had no choice but to return to the Long Domain, intending to use the power here to open the Universe Barrier. ]

[ Through continuous effort, you only spent 200,000 years cultivating the Long Domain to its Peak. ]

[ And the moment it reached its Peak, you immediately unleashed a Fatal Strike, blasting an opening in the Universe Barrier. ]

[ Endless Chaos Qi surged into the Inner Universe. ]

[ But this time, you did not leave immediately; instead, you released another Fatal Strike, continuously widening the opening in the Universe Barrier. ]

[ After doing all this, you nodded with satisfaction and headed to the Outer Universe. ]

[ You searched continuously in the Outer Universe. ]

[ Anything that could enhance your strength was taken into your possession. ]

[ The 300,000th year. ]

[ " My Lord, this is the new Medicinal Pill I have refined. " ]

[ " My Lord, this is mine. " ]

[ " You should look at what I have refined first, My Lord. This Medicinal Pill can keep you absolutely clear-headed, without the slightest bit of fatigue! " ]

[ " ... " ]

[ As several voices rang out, you slowly stepped into the pavilion before you. ]

[ In order to withstand that future "evolution," during your plundering in the Outer Universe, you had captured several Alchemists to refine various Spirit Pills for you. ]

[ However... ]

[ Although these people's skills were decent, they never refined anything that satisfied you. ]

[ Finally, you sighed heavily and said, " Everyone, these items are all quite good. " ]

[ " But this seat still wants some Medicinal Pills that can directly enhance my own strength. " ]

[ " You do not need to worry about material costs; no matter what you want to use for refinement, this seat will do my best to find it. " ]

[ Upon hearing this, everyone present was speechless. ]

[ After a long time, an old man spoke up, " My Lord, it is truly not that we do not want to refine them. " ]

[ " Your current strength, My Lord, has already reached the Peak of the 18th Realm; it can be said that there is no room for further advancement. " ]

[ " No matter what kind of Medicinal Pill we refine, it is impossible to enhance your power. " ]

[ " If you really want to refine such a thing, I am afraid that apart from Daoist Dan Gui, no one can refine such a Medicinal Pill. " ]

[ " Oh? Daoist Dan Gui? " ]

[ You raised an eyebrow, signaling the old man to continue. ]

[ He did not hesitate and immediately told you all the information regarding Daoist Dan Gui. ]

[ This person is very strange. ]

[ Not only is he a ghost Cultivator, but he also likes to tinker with some strange and bizarre Medicinal Pills. ]

[ It is just that these Medicinal Pills mostly have very strong side effects, so he is quite criticized by other Cultivators. ]

[ However... ]

[ Side effects are side effects. ]

[ The Medicinal Pills refined by Daoist Dan Gui often have unexpected effects. ]

[ If there is anyone in the current world who can refine a Medicinal Pill that allows a Cultivator at the Peak of the 18th Realm to increase their strength, it must be Daoist Dan Gui. ]

[ Hearing this, you nodded thoughtfully. ]

[ However, just as you were preparing to get up and find Daoist Dan Gui, you suddenly thought of the few Cultivators mentioned by the Inner Universe phantom. ]

[ " Since you are all unable to refine a Medicinal Pill that allows a Cultivator at the Peak of the 18th Realm to advance further, then what about Bei Ming Wu Liang, Dongfang Wanling, Ximen Dang Tian, and Nangong Bu Mie? " ]

[ " How did they manage to improve? " ]

[ You spoke slowly, believing that these Alchemists would have some understanding of the four. ]

[ After all, the Alchemists you captured were all the most top-tier existences in the Outer Universe. ]

[ If even they did not know, then I am afraid no one else in the Outer Universe would know the situation of these four. ]

[ But who would have thought. ]

[ Even these people had no impression of the four you mentioned, as if they had never appeared in this world. ]

[ This immediately caused doubts to arise in your heart. ]

[ However, just as you were preparing to leave in disappointment, a middle-aged man spoke up. ]

[ " My Lord, although I do not know the four people you mentioned, I have heard the name of Nangong Bu Mie from a Nangong Family cultivator. " ]

[ " It is just that the Nangong Family is truly not considered powerful; even their strongest member is only at the 16th Realm. " ]

[ Upon hearing this, your heart filled with joy, and you immediately demanded the location of that Nangong Family from the middle-aged man. ]

[ Although this Nangong Family might not necessarily be the existence you are looking for, it at least gave you some hope to continue improving. ]

[ " Very well, I hope everyone can stay here for a while longer to refine Medicinal Pills for this seat. " ]

[ " As long as the time comes, this seat will certainly keep my promise and let you all leave. " ]

[ You cupped your hands slightly, then disappeared from where you stood. ]

[ And after you left, although those Cultivators you captured were unwilling, not a single one left. ]

[ After all, your methods and strength were obvious to all. ]

[ If they left, no matter where they hid, they would soon be caught back by you. ]

[ Ten years later. ]

[ Relying on Celestial Travel, you shuttled continuously through the Outer Universe and soon found the whereabouts of that Daoist Dan Gui. ]

[ Just as the old man described, this person was indeed a ghost Cultivator. ]

[ Furthermore, his behavior was extremely strange. When you found him, he was actually still trying to use Chaos Qi for Alchemy. ]

[ Unsurprisingly, he failed. ]

[ The energy contained within the Chaos Qi is incredibly mottled; if one forcefully uses it for Alchemy, not only will it not succeed, but it will also cause a huge explosion. ]

[ " Rumble... " ]

[ Following a violent explosion, Daoist Dan Gui was instantly blown away. ]

[ However, just at this moment, you appeared behind him and caught him with one hand. ]

[ " Fellow Daoist, your Alchemy skills are truly formidable. " ]

[ " If this seat is not mistaken, you should have almost succeeded just now, right? " ]

[ Upon hearing this, Daoist Dan Gui raised an eyebrow and said, " Oh? I did not expect there to be someone with discerning eyes in this world. " ]

[ " That is correct, this old ghost almost succeeded just now. " ]

[ " Everyone says that Chaos Qi cannot form a Medicinal Pill, but in my opinion, that is not the case at all. " ]

[ " Chaos Qi is endless, and it contains extremely immense power. " ]

[ " If it can be refined into a Medicinal Pill, it will be a huge help to the entire world. " ]

[ " It is just a pity that I am still lacking a little bit. " ]

[ " And it is precisely this point that causes me to fail no matter how I refine it. " ]
