ly directly consume spiritual fire. Such an otherworldly spirit bird, I haven't even heard of it on the Chiyan Continent. I wonder what kind of creature this spirit bird is"“I have no idea who he is.”...“This place is less than three hundred miles from my alchemy site, Eastern friend, you’ve finally woken up.” The voice of the One-Cultivation Daoist echoed from the clouds. Afterwards, the other figure walked out between the cloud layers, seeming to have been beside Lu Xiaoteng all along. In fact, for a Golden Immortal-level powerhouse, three hundred miles was no different from being right beside him.

"How long have I been sleeping" Lu XiaTian asked.

“It’s been almost three years,” Mu Xia said with a hint of joy, “Originally, we were all trying to find a way to help you wake up. But Master Huashidao said that it might affect your future cultivation. We could only give up for now. I didn't expect you to recover so quickly.”

The wait was excruciatingly long, but once Lu Xiaottian regained consciousness, he felt that time had been insignificant. As for the matter of refining pills for Xue DaoYuan, it was no longer on Mu Xia's radar at this point.

“It’s rare for a young friend from the East to recover within three years. In the future, your quest for the Golden Immortal Dao will be even closer.” Yi Hua Dao Ren was also extremely surprised, repeatedly looking at Lu Xia Tian. Although Lu Xia Tian was facing only a clone of the Eroding Devouring Heart Demon, that heart demon realm was a great test. At this moment, Lu Xia Tian was only at the Xuan Xian realm. In Yi Hua Dao Ren’s eyes, although relying on that medicinal pill saint spirit and his mastery of alchemy, his primordial spirit could already rival that of a Heavenly Immortal.”

It's true that the scale of a primordial spirit is one thing, and most Dan Saints have pretty decent primordial spirits. However, when it comes to actually using them in combat, they fall short. Very few Dan Saints can truly achieve this level. That's why a Daoist cultivator like him is more revered than an ordinary Golden Immortal.

Right now, Lu Xia Tian not only achieved it, but he did so facing a powerful existence like the Erosion Devouring Demon Heart Split Body. He was even more extraordinary than before. The Erosion Devouring Demon Heart Split Body unleashed its Demonic Realm, causing countless celestial immortals to become trapped within and unable to extricate themselves. Lu Xia Tian's primordial spirit was steadfast, his heart devoid of distractions. Whether in cultivation or alchemy, he would undoubtedly face a smooth path.

"Golden Immortal's Path!" Nie Tianhou and Shen Tu Zhan Feng were happy for Lu Xia Tian, but their hearts were also filled with bewilderment. The two of them were still striving to ascend to the Heavenly Immortal realm. Although it was a likely event, it would still take many months of hard work and full effort to break through to the Heavenly Immortal.

As for Shen Tu Zhan Feng, for Nie Tian Hou, striking the Heavenly Immortal realm wasn't particularly difficult. The difficulty lay in establishing a solid foundation during the process of striking the Heavenly Immortal realm, otherwise, it would be a forced ascension, with an unstable foundation, making him the bottom dweller even amongst Heavenly Immortals. It would be better not to ascend at all. Their family backgrounds and lineages didn't allow for them to become mediocre after ascending, blending in with the countless other Heavenly Immortals.

It's just that while they were doing everything they could to advance to the Heavenly Immortal realm, Lu Xia Tian, in Yi Zhidao's eyes, was already looking towards the Golden Immortal path. Judging from Yi Zhidao's tone, it seemed that his hopes of advancing were quite high.

"This is still out of the question." Lu Xia Tian shook his head and smiled.

"How are you doing, young friend" the Daoist asked.

"Not bad, not much affected. Has Senior already started refining the Golden Vault Nine Extremes Polarizing Yuan Dan" Lu Xiaodao said.

"Good, it has begun, though the progress in the early stages is rather slow. If you, young friend, are still in good shape, come and lend this old man a hand." The Daoist invited.

"Since alchemy has already begun, will I have any impact if I join in now" Lu Xiaodao said.

“Ordinary people joining would naturally have a significant impact, but you are not one of them.” Yihuadao heard this and laughed heartily, “The Tian Dan Palace sent several third-rank Dan Saints over, but they didn't have a good solution. As for fourth-rank Dan Saints, although there were suitable candidates, they were busy with other matters that were equally important to treating Deputy City Lord Xue.”

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Alright, I'll help with treating Deputy City Lord Xue. If there's an opportunity, I will certainly lend a hand." Lu Xia Tian nodded. The Golden Vault Nine Extremes Transforming Yuan Dan, such a high-level pill's refinement, if he could participate, it would be extremely beneficial for his own alchemy path. Even ordinary Pill Saints wouldn't have this chance. Lu Xia Tian naturally wouldn't refuse.

“Follow me.” With a hand gesture, the Daoist priest led Lu Xia Tian through the air.

The place where Yihuadao people practiced alchemy was very similar to the place where Lu Xiaoteng's avatar was deceived by the Xilulu Heart Demon before. Of course, the Xilulu Heart Demon was also derived from the realm of heart demons. However, the situation in front of him was exactly the same.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

It seems that the demonic soul-corrupting phantom likely learned about this Golden Vault Nine Extremes Transforming Pill from other Alchemy Saints. After all, unless this old demon knew about the Golden Vault Nine Extremes Transforming Pill himself, the illusionary realm of demons he created, especially the number nine extremes, wouldn't be so realistic. If this fiend influenced other Alchemy Saints through demonic phantoms, and something went wrong during their alchemy process, it would be fatal. This demonic soul-corrupting phantom is truly formidable.

Lu Xia Tian immediately transmitted his doubts to Yi Hua Dao Ren.

At that moment, Yi Hadao's expression turned solemn. He raised his hand and cast out a light shield, enveloping an area of a hundred meters in all directions.

“In that case, it's certain that other Dan Saints have been afflicted by the Xī Lù Xīn Mó demon. This fiend is truly formidable.” Yī Huà Dào Ren sighed deeply.

"Senior, any advice" Lu Xiaodao said.

“To play tricks under my very nose, the other party is just losing a sliver of their divine sense. In the end, the final steps to forming the pill must be personally controlled by me. However, in the early stages, neutralizing the medicinal power refined by each Alchemist Saint is necessary to avoid clashes of dan qi. This cannot be ignored either. I knew if you could have woken up within three years, just wait a while.”

Yi Hadao, after patting his forehead, said, "Forget it, no matter what. Since you, Dong Fang Xiao You, have already passed the test of the Eroding Heart Demon, you are qualified to join in. We'll stick to the original plan. I will be responsible for the final step of forming the elixir, and you will be responsible for harmonizing the Nine Extreme Dan Qi. If we still can't form the elixir in the end, then it's just Xue Fu Chengzhu's fate."

Lu Xia Tian nodded. On this point, he naturally had nothing more to say. For Lu Xia Tian, as long as he could participate in the alchemy process, it would be good. As for whether or not to successfully refine the elixir, Lu Xia Tian didn't demand it so much. If it could be refined, then great; if not, it wouldn't make much difference. After all, Xue Dao Yuan, this extremely important Jin Xian powerhouse of Honghou Heavenly Court, had nothing to do with him. Lu Xia Tian had already reminded Yi Hua Dao Ren, and as for how to deal with it, that was Yi Hua Dao Ren's own decision.

There were nine altars arranged together, the central one being the largest, its area exceeding that of all the others. The remaining eight altars were positioned around it. At this time, each of the eight smaller altars had a Dan Saint who was raising their furnace, transforming immortal plants into medicinal liquid.

On the main altar, there were many more. Apart from Xue Dao-yuan's ice coffin, there was also a cauldron of a Nascent Soul cultivator. Another middle-aged man with a square face also set up his own cauldron, connecting it to the eight subsidiary altars through the restrictions on the main altar. Praying Mantis and the Red Green Ape King to make their move, Daoist Lu will have missed his opportunity. By then, facing two enemies alone, he will surely lose the battle. Since that's the case, it'...
