Chapter 797 - World Genesis Elixir

Chapter 797: World Genesis Elixir
The True Element Sect, one of the sixteen mystic-tier forces of the Aeternal Sky Starfield, one of the three World Sects, and ruler of the Elementus Domain. Originally the Jade Element Sect, the True Element Sect was the result of a merger between the Lin Clan and Divine King Han Xei, otherwise known as the Nine-Divine Elementus King to the Grand Cyclic Stellar Region, in a desperate bid to free the Lin Clan from their plight.
Unfortunately for them, this didn't resolve their issues. The Lin Clan remained the nominal leaders. The Mythical Oaths remained in place. The sect was being sucked dry by all sides, divided severely and only maintained due to their wariness of segregation. Unable to escape, the Lin Clan's suffering continued for thousands of years.
The sect was divided into three main factions with different leaders. These factions belonged to the external members that leeched off the former oaths like parasites to enjoy the extremely beneficial environment that was the Aeternal Sky Starfield; the members of the Jade Element Sect forced to concede their territory and wealth to these parasites due to the Lin Clan; and the forces led by the Guardian of Elements, Han Yuhei, and the Nine-Divine Elementus King, Han Xei.
According to reports, the last faction belonging to these two grand figures was the strongest and most dominant faction of the True Element Sect, with the Guardian of the Elements having a reputation of being one of strongest Earthly Saints in the Aeternal Sky Starfield.
Despite all this, the True Element Sect was a shell of its true power, its wealth and resources divided into three hefty portions, leaving few for true disciples. The internal political environment was said to be rife with schemes and conflict, unable to find any middle-ground due to their toxic history. The resentment that each faction had for each other was far too heavy.
This was a brief, simple explanation about the True Element Sect's current climate.
"True Element Sect…" Wei Wuyin lowered his head, placed his hand on his chin, and furrowed his brows.
Wen Mingna didn't interrupt Wei Wuyin's thoughts, but she understood the dangers that this would present. Mostly it was due to the history that Wei Wuyin had with the True Element Sect. According to them, rumor or not, Wei Wuyin was a Chosen of their force via the Devil War Realm's Elementus Chosen Trial established by Divine King Han Xei and the King of Everlore.
They were still riding on this reputation to provoke caution from all their tense relations. Not a single one of those folks wanted to offend a true Mortal Sovereign Alchemist, let alone a talented alchemist with a potential akin to the King of Everlore. While most might not believe that latter statement, keeping a healthy dose of skepticism, it warranted a wait-and-see attitude.
In fact, many forces have tried to actively reconcile with the Lin Clan. From the Golden Gate Pavilion's information reports, the Lin Clan's treatment had explosively increased towards positively after it was rumored that Wei Wuyin had an engagement with the Saintess of the Sect, Lin Xianxei. This was also true within the sect.
The two factions that suppressed the Lin Clan had adopted a wait-and-see attitude and no longer fiercely suppressed them. Still, there was a good chance that this was merely a feint, a play to perform if they couldn't ally or eliminate Wei Wuyin.
Why eliminate?
While the former members of the Jade Element Sect, the Shattered Element Faction, might not actively act against Wei Wuyin for his potential to allow them freedom, the True Origin Faction wouldn't want this. If the Lin Clan met the requirements to break the Mythical Oaths, they would be ousted by the Imperial Clan and the Lin Clan as the latter would experience a massive resurgence. Due to their reputation, very few established Starfields would allow them entrance.
Furthermore, moving to a less developed and weaker starfield was the same as lowering their resources and wealth by a considerable degree. It would cripple them. Additionally, the Shattered Element Faction might have a similar thought process. They suppressed the Lin Clan for millennia out of hatred; it was unlikely, if the Lin Clan grew, that they wouldn't experience a thorough cleansing.
The attitude of the Guardian of Elements and the Divine King wasn't apparent to anyone. But it all boils down to two things: self-preservation and profit.
Wei Wuyin had learned all this from Wu Yu when he returned from performing those assigned tasks. All this information was freely available. As an Ascended being with connections to the Golden Life Pavilion, Wu Yu didn't lack the means to obtain a comprehensive report towards the various forces of the Grand Cyclic Stellar Region.
Wu Yu slowly set the fishing rod to the side, flickering like a shadow and arriving beside Wei Wuyin. "Young Lord, I-"
"I know," Wei Wuyin waved his hand to interrupt Wu Yu. His furrowed brows deepened considerably.
Wen Mingna glanced at this handsome middle-aged man, finding him familiar. He reminded her of someone, but she couldn't quite remember who. However, she was aware that he was a Mystic Ascendant Realm expert and was Wei Wuyin's subordinate. It was inconceivable for a genuine Ascended to follow a mortal being—especially young cultivators. The only possibilities were Exalted cultivators, those who 'failed' their ascension and entered the Mystic Star Phase with a severely damaged lifespan.
Those experts sought methods and wealth to restore their damaged vitality, extending their lives and earning wealth for their future generations to succeed where they failed. Yet here, this figure was clearly a genuine Ascended and likely not an ordinary one considering Wei Wuyin kept him around.
Wei Wuyin's brows soon smoothed out. After a moment, he lifted his head to look at Wen Mingna. He gestured towards Wu Yu, "This is Wu Yu, the Founder of the Myriad Monarch Sect."
"...!" Wen Mingna's eyes expanded with severe shock as she gave Wu Yu a look. Something clicked in her memories. She remembered the portraits and statues she'd seen around the Myriad Monarch Sect's important locations, and her heart started to race. She couldn't help but instinctively say, "But you're…"
She stopped herself before completing that ridiculous sentence.
Disregarding her own disbelief, Wu Yu should be nearly ten thousand years old! Moreover, he was said to have died failing his attempt at ascending to the next level. This wasn't widely known to the entire sect, but as part of the Valkyries and Ascendants, she had unrestricted access to any type of knowledge available.
Wu Yu gave Wen Mingna a faint smile. Considering this woman had nearly given up her life for some reason for Wei Wuyin, and then Wei Wuyin reciprocated by bestowing her portions of his cultivation, an extremely ill-advised method that caused damage to one's soulspan and had a horrid conversion rate, he knew she was highly regarded by Wei Wuyin. It was a plus that she was a Heavenly Seer.
Those beings had mysterious means at their fingertips that brought even him dread. Those that can glimpse into the future and past, learn about the present, and often derail your life's path before it could even begin warranted all his feelings. There was a famous saying in the Imperial Heaven Starfield, one of the former names of the Tri-Vision Starfield, that said: "Heaven's fury is a Seer's scorn."
Wei Wuyin didn't hesitate to reveal all the details surrounding Wu Yu's revival, including the Ever-Rebirth Pill, Long Chen's connection to Wu Yu, and their current relationship.

It took her a few seconds before she respectfully greeted Wu Yu with a deep bow as she was a member of the Myriad Monarch Sect. Wu Yu felt flattered and hurriedly helped her up, giving Wei Wuyin a glance. One of the few things powerful men disliked was their women paying respects to their subordinates. In his mind, Wen Mingna was his boss' woman, especially considering how liberal he was with his identity.
Wei Wuyin didn't react. Whether it was due to the ambiguous state of their relationship or he didn't mind Wen Mingna acting as she wanted, lacking any insecure feelings towards these bothersome nuances of interactions, Wu Yu wasn't certain. That being said, he felt like it was the latter.
After handling this matter of etiquette, Wen Mingna turned to Wei Wuyin and asked: "Shall I perform further divinations?" There were a few topics she could glimpse into. Of course, they had to avoid interacting with Ascended beings. While she could peek into some things regarding these beings, they were extremely well-protected against all sorts of divination. She could try to garner a bit of intent the True Element Sect has towards Wei Wuyin, but this would likely reveal what they already speculated.
Wei Wuyin heaved a faint sigh, "No." He stood up and stretched his arms lightly, giving Wu Yu a 'look' and casually stated: "I think it's time for you to ascend to the next stage."
"..." Wu Yu's eyes instantly contracted. "What do you mean by that?" The act of ascending wasn't so easy that a cultivator could simply decide to do so whenever. While he could attempt his Third Ascension, he didn't have a full guarantee of success. Moreover, he had a faint shadow lingering on his heart from his last devastating failure. There was no need to explain why.
Wen Mingna was similarly taken aback by Wei Wuyin's words, but she was more tactful and understanding of his character from his reputation and experiences that the other Valkyries shared. If Wei Wuyin said this, then he was absolutely confident of Wu Yu's success!
"You said that the cultivation method I gave you can assure your ascension, no?" Wei Wuyin asked with a lifted brow. While he couldn't understand the language of Mysticism, Wu Yu could explain it in a rough manner, only including the very simple details. For example, how it would guarantee his success if he could cultivate it. Moreover, he needed Origin Essence, vast amounts of it.
"Yes, but it'll take me-" Wu Yu halted his own words as he stared at Wei Wuyin's calm complexion, hearing his steady heartbeat, and remembered who he was. His eyes gradually brightened with considerable light of realization, excitement, and anticipation.
Wei Wuyin revealed a smile, "During my travels to the Ninestar Starfield, my detour allowed me to obtain a few things. One of which is surprisingly very suitable for your cultivation, and I can expedite it." After saying these words, Wei Wuyin touched his spatial ring, the same spatial ring that Cai Liuyang had once worn, and took out an alchemical product that she possessed.
It was a vial of white, milky liquid. Within the liquid, strange crystalline runes circulated. It only totaled a single ounce, but none with eyes would think less of it due to its low quantity.
Wu Yu and Wen Mingna's eyes widened after the vial was revealed. Wen Mingna unhesitatingly said, her eyes flashing with glossy golden light, "Peak Mystic-Earth elixir!"
"What?!" Wu Yu had never seen Mystic-Earth grade alchemical products before, so he was given a heavy shock as he gave the vial of liquid a piercing look with spiritual light erupting from his gaze. He saw hundreds of minuscule mystic runes swimming within it, but they only consisted of three types of complete mystic runes. They heavily resembled two of his own Mystic Runes formed after his Ascension, but he couldn't recognize the third type.
He grew lost for a while, his mind stirring endlessly, and his mental energy was being rapidly consumed with every passing second as he observed the vial. Unfortunately, he reached a certain point and was shocked out of that state. His now-pale expression contorted as a bout of mental weakness overcame him.
"This is a World Genesis Elixir. According to the description left on it, it's a peak-tier, high-grade Mystic-Earth elixir that contains an abnormal amount of refined Origin Essence of a high quality. It was meant to be used to create an exceptionally stable and mystic-grade World Realm, but it could also be used to cultivate certain methods," Wei Wuyin explained with a faint shake of the vial. This was merely one of the numerous other Mystic-Earth grade products Cai Liuyang possessed.
Her status was not low at all.
Wu Yu's heart was like ten thousand horses running endlessly through the fields as he observed the elixir. The Blood Origin Method actually mentioned this exact product in its description of how to accelerate its cultivation. The World Genesis Elixir didn't just have high-quality Origin Essence, but as a peak Mystic-Grade elixir, it contained high quantities of mystic essence and Mystic Intent in the form of those runes.
"You have one year," Wei Wuyin stated. But this caused Wu Yu's expression to change heavily. While cultivating the first stage of the Blood Origin Method can be sped to be completed in a few weeks, let alone a year, refining a Mystic-Earth grade elixir wasn't going to be so easy.
Yet Wei Wuyin didn't allow Wu Yu the opportunity to voice his concerns over his seemingly unrealistic timetable. Instead, he waved his hand, and a tiny saber emerged in his palm, and it rapidly expanded to roughly a hundred meters in diameter that sealed the area in its saber aura. Then, a cauldron was summoned from his spatial ring.
BOOSH!
The All-Elemental Eclipse Cauldron slammed against the ground. The lake rippled endlessly, and waves were generated that toppled Bai Lin, causing her to sink into the lake in a ruffled and surprised manner. Instantly, the trio was engulfed by the Utmost Purity Mist Domain. The pure mist overwhelmed their senses and caused their spirits to unhesitatingly roar with excitement.
The formerly sixty-three meters spherical domain had increased in diameter to a total of sixty-five meters! Due to its thickness, the Utmost Purity Mist was borderline becoming liquid in state due to its thickness.
"Only one year," Wei Wuyin said with a firm tone that brokered no negotiation or excuses.
Wu Yu and Wen Mingna were thoroughly awed by this astonishing development, their jaws both gaping and their eyes roaming the mist. A former ruler of a starfield and Ascended being alongside a former princess of a country and Heavenly Seer were both amazed to the utmost!
