The Peak of Alchemy & Martial

Chapter 2



C2 – Pill-God Body

“Indeed, you’ve been reborn alongside me. It turns out the legend that innate abilities reside within the soul is true.”

“Pill God Body, refine.” A green-red flame materialized before Yun Haoyan.

“It seems I won’t need a pill furnace for future alchemy. I can refine pills directly within the void.”

“Pill God Body, engage.” Yun Haoyan’s aura surged, and he swiftly ascended from the first level of Martial Warrior to the first level of Martial Grandmaster.

In this world, the hierarchy of martial arts realms is as follows:

Body Tempering, Martial Warrior, Martial Master, Grand Martial Master, Martial Grandmaster, Martial Spirit, Martial King, Martial Emperor, Martial Sovereign, Martial Saint, and Martial Monarch.

Each realm represents a distinct tier of heaven, and challenging a higher realm is typically unthinkable. Yet, Yun Haoyan’s God Level talent defies this norm. He can not only challenge one realm above but can leap across three.

“The only downside is the high consumption of Spiritual Energy.” Since employing the Pill God Body, Yun Haoyan realized all the Spiritual Energy from his past life had been stored within it. But this energy was rootless, depleting with each use, compelling Yun Haoyan to be cautious with its application. He promptly deactivated the Pill God Body, ceasing the ‘engage’ command.

He retrieved a Spirit Stone.

The Pill God Body absorbed the Spiritual Energy from the stone, which rapidly dissipated, leaving behind nothing but an ordinary rock.

The shadow trailing Yun Haoyan deepened, a sign of the increased Spiritual Energy he had amassed.

Such is the might of the Pill God Body, a God Level innate ability coveted by many.

It’s common knowledge that innate abilities are categorized into four tiers: Heavenly, Earthly, Profound, and Yellow. Yet, unbeknownst to most, above the Heavenly tier lies the God Level.

The lore of the God Level innate ability circulates only among the mighty, and the path to its acquisition is fraught with difficulty. To attain the Pill God Body, one must possess no innate abilities and break through to the Pill God realm solely through their own prowess.

In this world, the only individuals to have reached the Pill God realm were the Divine Alchemists, who perished over a hundred thousand years ago. Legend has it that the Divine Alchemist, in his breakthrough to the Pill God realm, relied on a Heavenly innate ability to succeed. Thus, even the Divine Alchemist never awakened the Pill God Body.

“Your presence here confirms it—I’ve ascended to the realm of the Pill God.”

Yun Haoyan chuckled at the thought.

At last, I’ve attained the status of the God of Pills.

In his past life, he wasn’t naturally gifted in alchemy, but his diligence was unwavering, and he ceaselessly pursued the art of pill refining.

With sheer determination, Yun Haoyan advanced to the Pill Monarch Realm, achieving this feat solely through his own efforts.

He became celebrated as the most talented alchemist, held in high esteem by all.

It was then that she made her entrance. Yun Haoyan hadn’t understood her motives before, but now it was clear. She had deliberately drawn close to him, recognizing his self-made breakthrough to the Pill God Realm. She was biding her time, waiting to claim his Pill God Body once he reached that pinnacle.

He was utterly devoted to her, deeply in love. Yet, from the outset, she had been scheming.

She hadn’t anticipated that the Pill God Body would be impervious to all poisons.

Not even the ninth-grade saintly Non-Spirit Pill he crafted could claim his life.

People often credited Yun Haoyan’s success to his talent, overlooking the relentless practice that propelled him to the Pill Monarch Realm. Ultimately, it was with her family’s backing that he ascended to the Pill God Realm.

Had he relied on the innate ability for alchemy, his journey would have been cut short.

While many recognized that innate abilities could aid in cultivation, they failed to see that these gifts could also become significant hindrances. Had Yun Haoyan depended on such abilities for refining pills or martial practice, he would have missed out on the crucial hardships that drive one to greater heights.

Legend has it that possessing a God Level innate ability is the sole path to the Emperor Realm.

Previously, Yun Haoyan’s martial prowess fell short. Driven by vengeance, he strayed from his path and ultimately only reached the Martial Emperor Realm.

This time around, with the Pill God Body and his status as a Divine Alchemist within the Pill God Realm, his sights were set not on the Martial Saint Realm of his former life but on the Martial Monarch Realm, and perhaps even beyond, to the realms of legend.

Martial God Realm.

While Yun Haoyan was busy mapping out his future plans, a raucous clamor erupted from beyond the doorway.

“Yun family, come forth and receive the betrothal gifts. I am Qiu Kuiwei, and tomorrow morning, I shall take Yun Tiantian as my concubine.”

“Get lost! I’d rather die than marry you.”

Yun Haoyan’s brow furrowed as he made his way outside.
