On The Path Of Cultivation To Become God

Right after Duan Shu left the Sect Pavilion, she appeared beside a towering oak tree.

The oak tree looked like a big house with its massive trunk and sprawling branches.

The tree was gigantic, its branches stretching out in all directions; Duan Shu standing next to it could barely see the top.

Duan Shu felt a sense of tranquility wash over her.

"Where can I find a good-quality yang qi?" she wondered aloud.

As if in response, a soft breeze rustled through the leaves of the oak tree, carrying with it a faint scent of floral sweetness.

Duan Shu closed her eyes and took a deep breath, allowing the calming energy of the tree to envelop her.

She shook her head in frustration. If she couldn't find the Yang Qi that she was looking for, the pill that she was creating would not be as effective as she had hoped.

Duan Shu was a renowned alchemist known for her ability to create powerful pills.

She had spent years studying the ancient art of alchemy, honing her skills in the pursuit of mastering the art of alchemy.

All the hard work and dedication had paid off, and as she had become one of the most respected alchemists, even important figures from other sects sought her expertise.

Because she was an Alchemy King, her pills were highly sought after and believed to be incredibly potent.

Alchemists are ranked based on their ability to create pills of different grades.

Alchemy Apprentice can concoct Grade 1 and Grade 2 Pills, which are used by Body Refinement and Qi Refinement Realm Cultivators.

Alchemy Masters can concoct Grade 3 to Grade 5 Pills, which are used by Meridian Opening to the Soul Formation Realm cultivators.

Next is the Alchemy Grandmaster, which was a huge leap in ability, as they were able to concoct Grade 6 and Grade 7 Pills, which contain the Dao in them and are used by Dao Fusion and Dao Lord cultivators.

Which only meant that Alchemy Grandmaster are at least in the Dao Fusion Realm.

Alchemy Kings can concoct Grade 8 and Grade 9 Pills, which are used by Dao King and Dao Ancestor Realm Cultivators.

Even with her rank as an Alchemy king, Duan Shu was now facing a great challenge.

Her disciple, whom she had mentored for years, was going to breakthrough to the Meridian Opening Realm and needed a special pill to aid in the process.

"Flame Pulse Pill," a Top Notch Grade 4 Pill that not only can help her discipline enter the Meridian Opening Realm but also help her discipline fire burn with stronger intensity.

Duan Shu could create such a pill with ease; after all, she is an Alchemy King who can create Grade 8 pills at the least.

However, there was a catch. The ingredients required to make the Flame Pulse Pill were extremely rare and hard to come by.

She already had everything prepared, but the high-level yang qi was missing.

Without this crucial ingredient, the pill would not be able to achieve its maximum potential.

"Should I go and search for the missing ingredient in brothels?" Duan Shu pondered. She knew that Brothels were a vast place that people often went to for various reasons, mostly for pleasure.

"Sigh." In the end, Duan Shu shook her head.

Such places wouldn't have the high-level yang qi she needed for the Flame Pulse Pill. It was unlikely that she would find what she needed in such establishments.

"Where can I find it?" She wondered, her mind racing with possibilities.

"Master, you're back?" Duan Shu turned around to see a beautiful girl standing in front of the oak tree, where a door was located.

The girl had long, flowing brown hair and a mischievous smile on her face.

Duan Shu immediately recognized the girl; the stiff expression on her face turned to a small smile as the previous cold attitude melted away.

"Ah, little Yun, you've returned," Duan Shu said warmly.

The girl was none other than Yin Yun, who had been with Chen Tian and Su Bingxin for the past couple of months.

She had to return and report to her master yesterday, but she came back today.

As she approached Duan Shu, her eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Master, I have completed my mission successfully," Yin Yun announced proudly.

Duan Shu nodded approvingly, her heart filled with pride for her talented disciple.

"So how was that other continent?" Duan Shu asked eagerly, eager to hear about Yin Yun's experiences.

"It was incredible, Master," Yin Yun replied with a smile.

Yin Yun started to recount her adventures, describing what happened there. She didn't forget to tell Duan Shu about the two new friends that she made along the way.

"Oh, my little Yun had such an amazing journey!" Duan Shu exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with excitement and motherly love for the girl in front of her.

"Tell me more about your new friends." Yin Yun chuckled and nodded, explaining more about Chen Tian and Su Bingxin.

Hearing Yin Yun talk about her new friends made Duan Shu remember the couple that she met a few minutes ago.

'Maybe it's just a coincidence,' Duan Shu thought to herself.

After talking with Duan Shu for a while longer, Duan Shu checked on Yin Yun cultivation.

"Mm... good, you're one step away from breakthrough to the Meridian Opening Realm," Duan Shu remarked, impressed with Yin Yun's progress.

"Thank master~~ I can feel the energy flowing through my body; I've been practicing diligently," Yin Yun replied gratefully.

Duan Shu smiled warmly, proud of her disciple's dedication.

"That's good, but try and take it slow," Duan Shu advised.

"Sometimes, rushing can lead to mistakes and setbacks. Remember, patience is key to cultivation." Yin Yun nodded.

"Wait till I give you the pill that I promise you," Duan Shu said with a mischievous glint in her eyes. "It will enhance your cultivation and make it more solid for the future."

Yin Yun's eyes lit up upon hearing Duan Shu's words.

"Okay, master, I will wait!" Yin Yun exclaimed eagerly.

Duan Shu chuckled, pleased with her disciple's enthusiasm.

"Good. Remember, true progress comes from a balance of both diligence and patience," she reminded Yin Yun.

"Um~"

After having a good chat with her master, Yin Yun left Duan Shu's residence feeling hopeful and eager. She couldn't help but envision the possibilities that the pill could bring to her cultivation.

Duan Shu gazed at her departing disciple with a mix of pride and fondness. As Yin Yun walked away, the eyes of Duan Shu returned to their previous cold and calculating nature.

"I need to find a good-quality yang qi," Duan Shu muttered to himself, determination etched on her face.

She knew that in order to create a successful pill, she needed a potent source of yang energy.

With this in mind and set on her goal, Duan Shu began to devise a plan to seek out the elusive yang qi.
