Chapter 3758 - The Colossal Heaven Land

"It failed?" Duan Ling Tian was surprised and puzzled when the Earthly King Divine Pill failed its Pill Tribulation.

After the tribulation clouds dispersed, he tried to refine another Earthly King Divine Pill. He was even more cautious this time. However, the pill still failed its Pill Tribulation. The third pill he refined suffered a similar fate as well.

"What's going on? What's the problem?" Duan Ling Tian recalled the steps and techniques he used when refining the Earthly King Divine Pills, but he still could not figure out where he went wrong.

"I'll ask for Revered Elder Lin's advice…"

Duan Ling Tian inhaled deeply before he sent a message to Lin Yan, the Chief Divine Alchemist of the Linghu clan.

"Revered Elder Lin, I'm outside now. I tried to refine the Earthly King Divine Pill into the Limit Divine Pills, but all of them failed to pass their Pill Tribulations. I'm sure I didn't make any mistakes when I was refining them. I can't figure out where I went wrong.

"You left the clan estate?" Lin Yan's first concern was Duan Ling Tian's safety. As Linghu Ren Jie's best friend, he naturally knew the dangers that Duan Ling Tian faced. However, he felt relieved after Duan Ling Tian quickly reassured him. Then, he said, "I'm aware of your skills and talents in alchemy. You shouldn't have made any mistakes when refining the Earthly King Divine Pills. This means there's definitely no problem with the steps and techniques. It has to be other underlying factors."

"What are the underlying factors?" Duan Ling Tian asked. "The condition of your Divine Pill Cauldron could be the reason. Even your state of mind could be a reason. Even the slightest distraction can affect the pill refining process. The Pill Tribulation is able to sense even the slightest problem. Think carefully. Is your cauldron okay? Were you distracted?" Lin Yan asked.

Duan Ling Tian smiled bitterly as he examined his Divine Pill Cauldron. When he confirmed there was no problem with it, he sighed. 'It seems like the problem is my state of mind.'

Earlier, before he began to refine the pills he had thought about Tang Wu Yan, his wives, and his partners. He had thought he had put those thoughts away, but it seemed like he had been subconsciously affected by the thoughts of his wives and his partners. At that time, other memories of the past begin to flood his mind.

When he was in the mundane realm, Keler's fiance from her past life, Yun Qing Yan, had shown up. In order to get Ke'er to do his bidding, Yun Qing Yan had captured his family and friends and confined them in a spatial divine artifact. The only ones who managed to escape Yun Qing Yan's imprisonment were Lin Lan and Princess Bi Yao since the duo was not around when Yun Qing Yan showed up. This also meant that Lin Lan and Princess Bi Yao were still in the Saint Province Realm.

Alas, due to various reasons, Situ Zhu Qing, the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Island, had sent her men to kill the people of the Saint Province Realm. As a result, almost the entire population was wiped out. After that, Duan Ling Tian searched the realm for Lin Lan and Princess Bi Yao, but he failed to find them. He could not contact them since he did not have their Soul Pearls. After all, they used to be by his mother's side all the time so there was no need for him to keep their Soul Pearls. Under such circumstances, he did not know if they were still alive.

He also thought about the time when he reunited with his good friends in the Azure Cloud Mansion in the Saint Province Realm. That was the last he had seen of them. Before leaving the Saint Province Realm, he had visited the major forces there, asking them to search for his friends and promised to reward them greatly. For this reason, those who survived the massacre were still searching for Lin Lan and Princess Bi Yao. Apart from that, he had also asked Elder Huo to send people to the Saint Province Realm to search for them. He also told Elder Huo to take care of them if he were to find them.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian sighed. He had tried to shake off these thoughts earlier when he refined the Earthly King Divine Pills, but he was still inevitably affected. He was now certain this is why he had failed to refine the Earthly King Divine Pills into the Limit Divine Pills.

"Again."

Duan Ling Tian calmed down. He settled his uneasy heart and dismissed the thoughts in his mind. Then, he took a deep breath before he began to refine the Earthly King Divine Pill again.

Boom!

After the Earthly King Divine Pill was formed, a clap of thunder heralded the arrival of the Pill Tribulation. This time, the pill successfully passed the Pill Tribulation. After passingthe tribulation, the pill glowed brightly and exquisite patterns could be seen on its surface.

"It's a success!" Duan Ling Tian smiled widely as he looked at the Earthly King Divine Pill that had successfully transformed into the Limit Divine Pill.

Following that, he continued to refine other king-grade pills that would help with his cultivation into Limit Divine Pills. All of them turned into Limit Divine Pills without exception.

Everyone from the Eastern Ridge Mansion would have been shocked out of their minds if they were to see Duan Ling Tian's heaven-defying performance.

Usually, only outstanding emperor-rank divine alchemists could refine Earthly King Divine Pills into Limit Divine Pills in an environment where the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy was rich. Without such an environment, the pill refinement would only end in failure. In fact, even a supreme-rank divine alchemist would not be able to refine the pills into king-grade Limit Divine Pills in Duan Ling Tian's environment. In such an environment, even refining god-grade Limit Divine Pills would be a problem. The only reason Duan Ling Tian successfully refined the Limit Divine Pills in this environment was all thanks to the vitality energy from the Divine Tree of Life in his Little World. Otherwise, it would also be impossible for him to refine Limit Divine Pills in this place no matter how good he was at sensing and extracting vitality energy from the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. 'I think I'll refine the lord-grade Divine Pills another time.' Duan Ling Tian quickly dismissed thoughts about refining lord-grade Divine Pills. This was because he had yet to fully familiarize himself with the steps and techniques. For this reason, even with sufficient vitality energy, there was a high chance the pill refinement would end in failure. "I'll practice more by refining king-grade Limit Divine Pills. After all, ordinary Divine Pills can't compare to the Limit Divine Pills…"

The difference between Limit Divine Pills and ordinary Divine Pills was huge. Needless to say, the Limit Divine Pills would help with his cultivation more. For example, ordinary Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills would not be able to help a rudimentary god become an intermediate god unless the cultivator's talent was heaven-defying, to begin with.

On the contrary, the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills that Duan Ling Tian refined into Limit Divine Pills managed to help an intermediate god in the Linghu clan become an advanced god. Moreover, after that breakthrough, the disciple even had leftover force from the pills that continued to boost his cultivation.

Ordinary Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills could only help intermediate gods become advanced gods if they cultivated supreme-grade cultivation methods. As for those who had just attained godhood, they would need to cultivate emperor-grade cultivation methods at least to directly become intermediate gods. With ordinary Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills, lord-grade cultivation methods were useless.

On the contrary, Duan Ling Tian's god-grade Limit Divine Pills helped the intermediate god from the Linghu clan become an advanced god even though that person only cultivated using a lord-grade cultivation method. Moreover, according to that person, he only used half the efficacy of the pills to become an advanced god.

Based on this, one could see how heaven-defying the Limit Divine Pills were compared to ordinary Divine Pills.

Since time immemorial, there would only be 18 Realms of Gods at one time. The Divine Offering Land and the Energy Profound Land were two of the current 18 Realms of Gods.

At this time, Lin Lan and Princess Bi Yao, Duan Ling Tian's good friends whom he failed to find in the Saint Province Realm, were in another Realm of Gods called the Colossal Heaven Land.

The two women ended up on the Colossal Heaven Land because of Jing Ru, who was also an old friend of Duan Ling Tian.

Jing Ru was the steward Duan Ling Tian had hired in the Crimson Sky Kingdom before he left the Saint Province Realm's Ten Great Dynasties. When Duan Ling Tian's father, Duan Ru Feng, returned to the Crimson Sky Kingdom in the past to bring his wife, Lin Lan, and Princess Bi Yao away, Jing Ru followed them as well. However, when Duan Ling Tian reunited with them in the past, Jing Ru was nowhere to be found. It was as though she had vanished into thin air, leaving no trace behind.
