Flipping the page, Alex saw the final Immortal pill recipe, one which was more unique than the last one.
It was a pill named Ten Thousand Earth pill. Once eaten, it gave the cultivator an imaginary weight of tens of thousands of tons. It didn't improve their defense much, but it improved their offensive strength by a lot, especially one's body cultivation.
Alex was quite surprised to see that there was something that could affect one's weight without actually affecting the person's real weight. He read through the recipe for a while before stopping.
The ingredients involved in it were ones that he had no idea about as well, just like the last one, so he wondered if he could even get to downgrading this in just a few years.
And if it took time, which one was better in his mind?
After thinking for a bit, he came to the conclusion that the first one was just that much better. Having a strong spirit that replenished just as quickly was definitely one of the more important aspects of the previous pill that was useful.
After looking at the two pills, he flipped the page, moving on to the Divine Ranked pills.
The higher rank one went, the more abstract a pill became. At the Divine rank, Alex didn't even know just what sort of pill one could get.
He was more than excited and looked at the descriptions of the first pill.
The first pill was a healing pill, which disappointed him a little. He wanted more than just healing pills. He wanted something that did much more, but this was all he was going to get for now.
The next pill was called the Spirit Creation pill. This was a little more unique for sure… but he had no idea what it did.
"Aids a cultivator in turning a Spirit into a Creation? What does that mean?" Alex thought for a second.
Creation… he knew this word. Remembering the idol that help the Death aura in the Broken Ravine sect, he knew a Creation was something a Divine realm cultivator could form.
"Then the spirit must be something similar too," he thought. If only the others would tell him what the Immortal and Divine realms were without the fear of overwhelming him and making him fear the future.
He sighed and read the next pill in the book which was the last of the Divine pills that was written.
"Divine True Fire pill?" his eyes narrowed a bit. "It grants a person the ability to use True Fire Dao for a certain period of time. Wait what?"
Alex read it once more to make sure he didn't read it wrong. "Huh? You can have pills that give you access to Dao?" he thought. Upon further consideration, he came to the conclusion that it was most likely not a Dao pill.
It was definitely something that used one's own Qi as a substitute for Qi that was provided by heaven, but that was already true for locations where Qi didn't exist.
He read that it left a person's meridian unusable due to the extreme Fire that it would create, but it was something that could be easily healed after a few months of cultivating.
This pill could be used either in combat or in production. Given how many uses True Fire dao had, more than enough people would make good use of it.
"Amazing," Alex couldn't help but say. He had no use for this pill, but just the fact that a pill of this sort existed meant that the possibilities for other Dao pills were there as well.
As long as he could have the talent for it, he could use any and all Dao without actually ever learning the Dao itself.
"Surely learning a Dao is better," Alex thought for a moment before his eyes narrowed. He read the talisman once more and his eyes widened once more with shock.
The pill's description had nothing about it requiring people to have Fire Meridian to be able to use the True Fire. Which meant that it most definitely made one's meridians capable of using Fire Qi.
Given that it also didn't mention the lack of ability to use neutral Qi, the Meridian was most definitely capable of using both Qi at once.
"Damn!" he couldn't help but say.
This was definitely one of the best pills she had read about until now.
Alex was a little sad that he had absolutely no way to downgrade this pill as the intent in his mind still held tightly onto Divine Ranked ingredients.
He recognized the names and what they looked like, but any more than that he would have to fight the Intent in his mind to access them, and he didn't want to do that.
He flipped the page and was surprised to see the end of Divine Pills. Instead, there was a single pill recipe on the last page of the book.
And it was a Celestial-ranked pill.
There was a single pill there, but given that it was a Celestial Ranked pill, it was most likely one of the strongest pill he had ever learned about.
Alex breathed in and out slowly, calming himself before laying his eyes on the name of the Celestial pill.
Celestial Tribulation Pill.
"Cultivators can eat this pill to manually trigger a… tribulation? What?" Alex couldn't help but be confused the moment he saw that. "Trigger a tribuation on your own? Why?"
He continued reading. "The tribulation triggered will be the next Immortality Tribulation one is supposed to face. You can face as many as you want, and in exchange, those tribulations will never arrive."
"The next tribulation after that will come at it expected period."
Alex thought for a bit. This was something he had learned about from Scarlet over a decade and a half ago.
When a person became an immortal, they needed to pay a toll to the heavens to remain an immortal. That toll was the tribulation lightning that they had to suffer from.
Every time you won against the tribulation lightning, it would return 10 millennias later stronger than before. If one remained complacent and didn't strive for a higher realm, the lightning tribulation would kill them the next time.
It wasn't as big of a problem as Alex initially thought, but that was only for the talented people who could breakthrough to higher realm with ease.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm The weaker ones that barely broke through to the Immortal realm would most likely die in a few tribulation as breaking through in the Immortal realms was a difficult task for ones that struggled throuhg the Saint realms.
"So, if you are strong, and don't want to be bothered by the lightning every 10 thousand years, you eat this pill and be done with it in advance?" Alex thought.
Finally, it made some sense. "That must be it," he thought. "What a unique pill."
He looked at the recipe for that pill and memorized. It was so far away in his future that there was simply no point in trying to understand it just yet.
He would do so when the time came for him to do so. Until then, learning about it was enough.
