Chapter 2294 - 2291: The Final Secret

Chapter 2294: Chapter 2291: The Final Secret

"Elixirs don’t have a fixed form; they could be solid, liquid, or even an energy form. Different materials create different forms," Elder Yan explained.

"Energy form elixirs?" Xiao Manxuan and Miss asked in surprise at the same time.

They could understand liquid elixirs, but what kind of existence is an energy form elixir? Most importantly, how is an energy form elixir preserved?

"Haha, it’s understandable you don’t get it, because even I have never crafted an energy form elixir; I’ve only read about it in ancient texts. But energy, like matter, is also divided into the five elements of Yin and Yang, for example..."

As Elder Yan spoke, he condensed a cluster of purple flames in his palm and continued, "This is energy, classified as fire in the five elements. Also, there’s the Situ family’s Xuanbing True Energy, classified as water in the five elements."

"Creating energy form elixirs is somewhat similar to crafting herbal elixirs; harmonizing attributes, merging the five elements, achieving Yin and Yang unification. However, harmonizing energy attributes is more challenging than harmonizing herbal attributes. Throughout history, there have been very few pharmacists who could craft energy form elixirs."

As he finished, Elder Yan showed a longing expression.

"So how are energy form elixirs preserved?" Xiao Manxuan asked curiously.

"Energy forms don’t need special preservation; they can attach to other objects, or even exist independently. For example, ball lightning is an energy form, and the sword spirit on Xiao Tian can attach to him or the sword," Elder Yan glanced at the metal bracelet on Lin Tian’s wrist with a slight smile.

The Xiao sisters and Yan Lingling were all stunned. Miss and Xiao Manxuan knew about the existence of the sword spirit, having seen it in England, but Yan Lingling did not.

Lin Tian was also quite surprised that Elder Yan could see through the existence of the sword spirit.

"This old man is formidable, not to be trifled with..." the sword spirit muttered to itself in Lin Tian’s mind.

"Ahem..." Lin Tian intentionally coughed twice and said, "Let’s take a look at the Shennong Ding."

Saying this, he placed the Blood Pearl on the lid of the ding. As soon as he did, Miss and the others held their breath, watching the Shennong Ding’s reaction.

The Shennong Ding trembled slightly, and a purple flame emerged, swirling around the ding and not dissipating. Elder Yan nodded slightly, a smile forming on his face, while Miss, Xiao Manxuan, and Yan Lingling weren’t too surprised since Lin Tian was using purple flames.

Then, another stream of air emerged, swirling with black and white colors, gradually merging into grey. The grey airflow circled once and occupied a corner opposite the purple flame.

"This..." Elder Yan’s smile disappeared, turning into a serious expression, with confusion in his eyes.

"Great Grandpa, what’s wrong?" Yan Lingling asked in confusion.

Elder Yan frowned, seemingly pondering something. After a moment, he said, "If the purple flame is his original power, then what’s with this grey airflow?"

They all simultaneously looked at Lin Tian, only to find him also full of confusion. The sword spirit’s voice suddenly sounded: "Master, this presence feels somewhat familiar, somewhat akin to your Taiyin Xuan Qi."

"No way, how did Taiyin Xuan Qi get here?" Lin Tian was even more puzzled.

"Perhaps it has already merged into your bloodline," the sword spirit speculated.

"Bloodline..." Lin Tian muttered.

Everyone was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Lin Tian, what bloodline are you talking about?"

Before Lin Tian could answer, the Shennong Ding had another reaction. A golden light shot out, illuminating the entire study, dyeing the bookshelves, books, and everything else in a golden hue.

A grand and magnificent aura filled the entire space, making people involuntarily want to worship. Even the powerful Elder Yan felt this and hurriedly activated his power to resist.

Miss and Yan Lingling were even less capable; they were almost unable to stand. As they activated their powers to resist the pressure, fine beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.

Xiao Manxuan, however, was unaffected. She blinked her big eyes, puzzled: "Sister, Lingling, what’s wrong with you? You’re breaking out in cold sweat."

But neither had the energy to answer; all their spiritual power was focused on resisting.

Another unaffected person was Lin Tian. On the contrary, upon seeing this golden light, he felt a sense of closeness and comfort, a long-lost feeling surged in his heart, and he felt no pressure at all.

Fortunately, this pressure quickly dissipated, leaving just a faint radiance on the ding. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their hearts filled with shock.

"Master, is it the power of the Ksitigarbha Order? But it doesn’t quite seem like it." The sword spirit, sensitive to energy, also sensed it.

"No." Lin Tian immediately denied it: "The power of the Ksitigarbha Order is vast, filled with compassion. This aura is vast and pure, seemingly capable of competing with the universe. I also have no idea where this power comes from."

"Could it be the power of the Shennong Ding?" the sword spirit asked again.

Lin Tian thought for a moment and denied again: "In the thunder, I felt the aura of the Shennong Ding’s power; it’s not as vast but continuous and resilient, accommodating all things, even able to heal zombie wounds. This power definitely isn’t from the Shennong Ding."

"Could it be yours, Master? What other secrets do you have within you that even you don’t know about?" The sword spirit was incredulous, probably wondering what kind of master it was following.

Lin Tian didn’t have time to answer before another beam of light, a green light, shot out. This was the Shennong Ding’s original power. A green energy wrapped around the three auras in the ding.

The streams of energy tumbled and soon merged together, slowly contracting into a pigeon egg-sized energy bead.

Elder Yan was still pondering the earlier changes but was overjoyed upon seeing this energy bead: "An energy form elixir! Xiao Tian, quickly take it."

The Shennong Ding unexpectedly activated on its own, merging several energies to craft an elixir.

It was Lin Tian’s first time seeing an energy form elixir. When he reached out to grasp it, unlike a solid elixir, the energy form had an illusory feeling, yet it was tangible, truly wondrous.

Without hesitation, he swallowed it. The elixir quickly dissolved in his stomach, flowing to his limbs, every part of his body, and all his organs.

This energy was so intense that Lin Tian couldn’t help but clench his fist. The purple flame spontaneously ignited, a purple fire mark appeared on his forehead, and at the same time, Lin Tian felt infinite power welling up from deep within, endless.

Crack...

It was as if something shattered, Lin Tian felt his body relax, seemingly having broken through some barrier, with his power continually rising. His teeth began to itch, as if something were about to emerge.

This was a sign of advancement!

But Lin Tian was inwardly alarmed, thinking to himself, this is bad, advancing at this time will cause his zombie fangs to grow out.

But with Miss, Xiao Manxuan, Yan Lingling, and Elder Yan right in front of him, if the zombie fangs emerged, wouldn’t his last secret be thoroughly exposed?
