Kryptonian fate deduction, invincibility starts from killing monsters

The Azure Spirit Clan wasn't as renowned as major clans like the Immortal Clan or the Golden Body Clan.

In fact, many people in the Chaos Sea hadn't even heard of this clan.

However, within the alchemist circles, especially among those with some achievements, the Azure Spirit Clan was a household name.

This clan was small in number, and some cultivators might not encounter a single member in their lifetime.

But every Azure Spirit Clan member, from birth, had their soul and body naturally fused with the Great Path of Alchemy.

Ordinary cultivators who cultivated to the Fusion Realm needed to slowly explore and integrate the Dao principles they comprehended into their Dharma Idols based on the Enlightenment Realm.

However, Azure Spirit Clan members, as long as they cultivated to the Dharma Idol Realm and gave birth to Dharma Idols, could directly skip the Nourishing Spirit Realm and Enlightenment Realm, directly becoming beings of the Fusion Realm.

The special aspects of their cultivation advancement weren't actually the most astonishing thing about the Azure Spirit Clan.

What amazed alchemists the most was the Azure Spirit Clan's innate aptitude for alchemy.

They didn't need to undergo lengthy training like other alchemists, accumulating experience through repeated attempts at refining pills.

For the Azure Spirit Clan, alchemy was as natural as eating and drinking.

As long as their realm was sufficient, they could handle any pill formula with ease.

And in the alchemy world, being able to refine pills that matched one's cultivation level was enough to be called a Pill Dao Saint.

That's why those pills in the Chaos Sea that had effects on the Saint Realm were incredibly expensive.

It was because most of these pills were refined by alchemists in the Venerable Realm.

And it was even harder to count on Saint Realm alchemists who could refine the same pills.

These Pill Dao Saints, from the moment they displayed their talent, were already valued by countless Venerable Realm powerhouses, who did everything in their power to nurture them.

All for the sake of having them break through to the Venerable Realm and refine Venerable Realm pills for them.

In the past, there was even a Pill Dao Saint whose Great Path appeared in the Venerable Realm one step ahead of him.

As a result, the dozen or so Venerable Realm experts who had been nurturing him joined forces and killed the newly emerged Venerable Realm expert overnight.

So that the Pill Dao Saint's cultivation could continue.

And the Azure Spirit Clan, in the way of alchemy, every member was a Pill Dao Saint.

The shop owner was stunned for a moment before he suddenly came back to his senses, scrambling to his feet and hurriedly said, "Does this fellow cultivator have a teacher?"

"My master is a five-star deacon of the Alchemist Alliance. If you haven't joined anyone's sect yet, I... my master can recommend you and introduce you to the elders of the Alchemist Alliance."

He could see that although this Azure Spirit Clan member had already reached the Fusion Realm, her aura was weak, and it seemed like she hadn't officially started cultivating towards the Saint Realm.

Most likely, she hadn't yet obtained the second-step cultivation technique after becoming a disciple.

He was able to open a shop in the main city of the Drifting Leaf Sailboat, so naturally, he wasn't some rogue cultivator without a master.

On the contrary, with a five-star deacon of the Alchemist Alliance as his master, he could receive certain courtesy even among those major clans.

But this little girl in front of him was an Azure Spirit Clan member.

A future Pill Dao Saint.

Not to mention him, even his master wasn't qualified to take her in.

However, that didn't prevent him from introducing her to other elders of the Alchemist Alliance.

A Pill Dao Saint, even for those high-ranking elders, was a great benefit.

It was enough to earn his faction a huge favor, and maybe even allow his master to take another step forward.

It was just that the Azure Spirit Clan girl didn't seem to hear his words at all, blankly looking down at the changes in her body, muttering a sentence, and quickly turned to leave.

"It's...it's really true."

She walked back to the street and started running wildly.

Her Fusion Realm cultivation allowed her to instantly arrive at the stall where Shen Lin had been earlier.

But when she returned, she only saw an empty stall.

Shen Lin had gone back for a nap after finishing the divination for her.

A look of disappointment appeared on her face, and then she lowered her head and began rummaging through her Sumeru Ring.

The path Shen Lin pointed out for her was a debt of gratitude as heavy as a mountain, impossible to repay.

The reason why the Azure Spirit Clan was so small in number was that very few members of this clan could live to adulthood.

The alchemy talent that amazed other alchemists was both a blessing and a curse.

Because they had already fused with the Dao at birth, the Azure Spirit Clan absorbed spiritual energy at an abnormally fast rate. Over time, even without deliberately cultivating, the spiritual energy in their bodies would quickly accumulate, and their cultivation speed would be extremely astonishing.

And when they reached adulthood, the spiritual energy accumulated in their bodies would reach its limit.

It would begin to spread and disperse throughout their bodies, until it burst their bodies open.

Passing this hurdle meant a vast world to roam freely.

But to pass this hurdle, they had to use a rare spiritual herb to gather the scattered spiritual energy.

The Spirit Condensing Grass, its medicinal effect wasn't amazing, but it was extremely rare.

In the current Chaos Sea, there was no Spirit Condensing Grass still growing.

All the Spirit Condensing Grass that the Azure Spirit Clan had used to overcome the difficulty had either been found in some ruins or accidentally discovered in the treasuries of those major clans.

Apart from that, no means could solve the problem.

Even Venerable Realm cultivators were powerless in this regard.

Venerable Realm experts possessed Dao Fruits, which could be regarded as walking embodiments of the Great Dao.

As soon as they took action, it would be equivalent to colliding with the Dao principles in the Azure Spirit Clan's body. Before the spiritual energy expanded and exploded, it would directly cause the Azure Spirit Clan member to die on the spot due to the collision of Dao principles.

Over the years, those major clans who understood the special nature of the Azure Spirit Clan naturally hadn't given up on trying.

But unfortunately, even those who stood at the very top of the entire Chaos Sea hadn't found other ways to solve the problem.

"This fellow cultivator, are you really not considering... um, sorry for bothering you."

Just as the Azure Spirit Clan girl was taking things out of her Sumeru Ring, the owner of the shop just now chased after her.

He wanted to try to continue to recruit her, but after seeing the things that were turned out of the other party's Sumeru Ring, he immediately closed his mouth.

The Immortal Clan's Pure Yang Sword Talisman, the Golden Body Clan's Buddha Relic, the Saint Feather Clan's Heaven Piercing Golden Feather...

Each seemingly ordinary object represented the goodwill of those major clans.

Indeed, where would it be their turn to recruit members of the Azure Spirit Clan?

The shop owner shook his head bitterly and turned to leave.

At this moment, the others on the road had also seen those objects, and they all widened their eyes.

"Damn! I'm not seeing things, am I? The Immortal Clan's Sword Talisman? Isn't that only given to those valued by the Immortal Clan's holy land? What's this person's background?"

"It's not just that, look at the others, they're all tokens from the holy lands of those major clans."

"Damn, she has a heavenly background!"

Amidst the discussions of the crowd, the Azure Spirit Clan girl finally found a suitable gift of thanks from her Sumeru Ring.

A tattered-looking kitchen knife.

At the handle, there was a mottled font.

She placed the item on Shen Lin's stall.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Shen Lin didn't seem to be coming back anytime soon, she sighed and turned to leave.

Now that the problem was solved, she had many things to be busy with.

It seemed that she couldn't wait for him to come back to thank him in person.
