Chaos Heaven-Dominating Technique

After returning to the cave, Shen Haoran gently placed the young woman on the stone bed, then looked at Elder Yan with eyes full of anticipation.

"Sigh..." Seeing Shen Haoran’s expression, Elder Yan let out a soft sigh and said, "You have your two-year promise to worry about. This wasn’t the time for you to receive the Alchemy Inheritance; I was afraid it would distract you. But it seems I have no choice now."

"Close your eyes, guard your Heart Spirit, and prepare to receive the inheritance!"

Hearing this, Shen Haoran shut his eyes tightly and gradually cleared his mind, preparing to receive Elder Yan’s inheritance!

Seeing that Shen Haoran was ready, Elder Yan pointed a finger at the space between his eyebrows. A sea of information immediately surged into Shen Haoran’s mind!

The sudden, massive influx of information sent a tearing sensation through Shen Haoran’s head, as if it were about to explode! But he had to remain conscious throughout the process, so Shen Haoran could only bite his lip hard and force himself to endure!

The excruciating pain lasted a full ten minutes before it gradually faded. Shen Haoran let out a heavy sigh of relief. He swept his Spiritual Thought through his mind, and a piece of information surfaced.

Alchemy Inheritance: The Alchemy Dao, to refine the six Daos of heaven and earth and achieve the supreme peak! These six Daos are the Alchemy Dao, the Artifact Refining Dao, the Martial Arts Dao, the Puppet Dao, the Talisman Dao, and the Dao of Life and Death!

The so-called Alchemy Dao...

A long string of explanations followed, dazzling Shen Haoran! He also learned a great deal; for instance, he had never even heard of the Puppet Dao, the Talisman Dao, or the Dao of Life and Death!

However, that wasn’t what Shen Haoran was concerned about right now. After briefly skimming the outline of the Alchemy Inheritance, he began searching for a way to resolve the Nine Yin Profound Spirit Body!

"The Nine Yin Profound Spirit Body, also known as the Cursed Body. Whenever the host attempts a breakthrough, they are eroded by Nine Nether Qi, causing immense pain! At an old friend’s request, I spent my entire life researching a way to resolve the Nine Nether Qi, finally devising the Five Elements and Four Symbols Skill!

The Five Elements and Four Symbols Skill uses the Primordial Spirits of the Five Elements and the Divine Pills of the Four Great Divine Beasts as catalysts, combined with the Nine Curves Void Essence Pill, to carry out the Refinement of the Nine Nether Qi. This process condenses a Nine Netherworld Pill and forges the legendary Nine Nether Body, a constitution on par with the Chaos Divine Body!

However, this method of resolution exists only in theory. The Primordial Spirits of the Five Elements are treasures one can only stumble upon by chance, not seek out. Even if one obtained them, their terrifying power makes it impossible to guide them into the body! And obtaining the Divine Pills of the Four Great Divine Beasts is even more difficult! As for the Nine Curves Void Essence Pill, although it is only a Seventh Grade High Tier Elixir, it requires the Essence Blood of the Ancient Divine Beast Taotie to be crafted. But the Ancient Divine Beast Taotie is as elusive as a phantom; obtaining its Essence Blood is nothing short of a fantasy! Helpless, I could only settle for the next best thing and create the Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal to seal the Nine Nether Qi within the body!

The Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal uses the Primordial Spirit of the Fire Element from the heavens and earth to seal the Nine Nether Qi within the body, thereby allowing one to escape its corrosion! However, this is merely a method of suppression. As the sealed individual’s strength grows, the power of the Nine Nether Qi also increases. Once their strength reaches the Spirit Emperor Tier, the Nine Nether Qi will be able to shatter the Seal, and all the accumulated Nine Nether Qi will erupt at once!

The consequences of such a massive eruption of Nine Nether Qi are unimaginable. At the very least, a ten-thousand-mile radius will be left barren, frozen in ice for ten thousand years! Therefore, this Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal is a method of salvation, but also one of destruction. Later generations must use it with caution!"

After reading the information regarding the Nine Yin Profound Spirit Body, Shen Haoran’s brows knitted together, his expression turning ugly.

Putting aside the effectiveness of the Five Elements and Four Symbols Skill for resolving the Nine Yin Profound Spirit Body, the required materials alone were enough to stump Shen Haoran. The Primordial Spirits of the Five Elements were the very things he needed to awaken his own Chaos Divine Body, and it was already uncertain if he could find them all! As for the Divine Pills of the Four Great Divine Beasts, Shen Haoran felt that gathering the Primordial Spirits of the Five Elements would be easier than collecting the Divine Pills of the Four Great Divine Beasts! After all, the Primordial Spirits of the Five Elements at least existed, but the Divine Pills of the Four Great Divine Beasts? The Divine Beasts had gone extinct in Ancient Times for some reason. To get their Divine Pills, Shen Haoran would have to travel through time!

And the Nine Curves Void Essence Pill wouldn’t be easy either. A Seventh Grade High Tier Elixir was incredibly difficult to craft. The Taotie Essence Blood was manageable—he could ask Changmao for a drop later—but he had never even heard of the other Spirit Medicines. Gathering them would be exceedingly difficult, especially for a Martial Artist from a small clan like himself.

As for the second method, the Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal, Shen Haoran didn’t dare use it lightly. If it was truly as the Alchemy Inheritance described, it would be a catastrophe for the entire Starfall Continent!

Seeing Shen Haoran’s grim expression, Elder Yan sighed again and said, "Shen the kid, this is why I was reluctant to help you. The methods described in the inheritance are simply impossible to achieve in this era! This is that little girl’s fate. No one can help her!"

At these words, Shen Haoran looked at the ice-covered young woman and fell into deep thought.

Although Shen Haoran didn’t know why he felt this girl was so important to him, he knew he couldn’t just let her die like this!

’If this is her fate, then I’ll change it for her! If no one can help her, then I will!’ At this thought, Shen Haoran’s eyes became resolute once more.

Sensing the change in Shen Haoran’s aura, Elder Yan’s face filled with surprise. "Shen the kid, you..."

"Elder Yan, I have to save her! Using the Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal!" Shen Haoran declared.

"Shen the kid, you have to think this through! If you can’t gather all the materials for the Five Elements and Four Symbols Skill before she breaks through to Spirit Emperor, she won’t be the only one to suffer!" Elder Yan said with a grave face.

"Elder Yan, I’ve made my decision. I believe I can gather all the materials for the Five Elements and Four Symbols Skill. In fact, I must!" A heroic aura soared from within Shen Haoran. At that moment, he felt as if his entire being had been elevated, a warm and comfortable sensation spreading through him that was beyond description.

Seeing this strange phenomenon occur in Shen Haoran, Elder Yan was inwardly delighted. ’This is a sign of his Spiritual Thought advancing a tier!’ he realized. Spiritual Thought was innate. Although it could grow stronger along with one’s power, its fundamental quality could not be changed, except through moments of epiphany or with some heaven-defying Treasures of Heaven and Earth!

After that internal struggle, the quality of Shen Haoran’s Spiritual Thought broke through to Tier One, finally meeting the requirements for an Alchemist! This was also one of the reasons why Elder Yan hadn’t passed on the Alchemy Inheritance to Shen Haoran before!

Feeling happy for Shen Haoran, Elder Yan said, "Since you’ve decided, I won’t stop you." Elder Yan completely respected Shen Haoran’s choice. His job now wasn’t to dissuade Shen Haoran, but to help him with all his might. This was the most he, as a teacher, could do for his student.

"Thank you, Elder Yan!" Shen Haoran said, his heart filled with gratitude.

"But we don’t have the Primordial Spirit of the Fire Element right now. What do we do?" Shen Haoran asked, troubled. The young woman’s life was hanging by a thread, and the Primordial Spirit of the Fire Element was nowhere to be found.

"I’ll be honest with you. The gift I wanted to give you is the Primordial Spirit of the Fire Element. However, it’s far away in Celestial Martial City. For now, we can only use the Red Flame Jade Marrow as a temporary substitute! By my calculations, using the Red Flame Jade Marrow for the seal should hold for about half a year. So you must get to Celestial Martial City within six months!" Elder Yan said.

"Really!" Shen Haoran’s face lit up upon hearing Elder Yan’s words. This would solve a lot of his problems! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"You should hurry up and familiarize yourself with the Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal. With your current Spiritual Power reserves, you can’t draw the complete seal yet! I need to go refine some Spirit Revitalizing Pills." After saying this, Elder Yan left the cave to search for Spirit Medicine.

Seeing Elder Yan leave, Shen Haoran let out a long breath. He located the Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal in his mind and began to practice it over and over. After all, the young woman’s life was at stake, and he didn’t dare to be careless.

An unknown amount of time passed before Shen Haoran finally committed the Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal to memory. When he opened his eyes, Elder Yan had already successfully refined a dozen or so Spirit Revitalizing Pills and placed them before him.

"Huu... Elder Yan, I’m ready to begin!" Taking the Spirit Revitalizing Pills in hand, Shen Haoran looked at the ice-bound young woman, his voice trembling slightly.

"Begin!"

Hearing Elder Yan’s words, Shen Haoran took out the Red Flame Jade Marrow from the Jade Bottle. The temperature in the cave instantly soared, and the frost on the young woman’s body began to melt away.

Once the frost on the young woman’s body had melted, Shen Haoran guided the Red Flame Jade Marrow to her forehead. With extremely precise Spiritual Manipulation, the Red Flame Jade Marrow transformed into a stream of pure Spiritual Power and merged into her body!

After the energy of the Red Flame Jade Marrow fused into the young woman’s body, Shen Haoran began to inscribe the Seal, following the strokes of the Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal!

As soon as he began to inscribe it, Shen Haoran felt his Spiritual Power flooding out of him, pouring down his arm and into the young woman’s body like a broken dam, which startled him!

’The Spiritual Power consumption is terrifying!’

However, Shen Haoran immediately calmed himself. With the Spirit Revitalizing Pills Elder Yan had prepared, plus the three Spirit Pills already inside him, Shen Haoran was confident he could finish drawing the Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal!

After steadying his Heart Spirit, Shen Haoran continued to draw downwards from the young woman’s brow. A faint red mark began to form on her face, continuing to spread downward, following his finger.

Looking at the faint red mark, Shen Haoran nodded in satisfaction. Just as he continued to draw downward, something unexpected happened!!

"Guard your Heart Spirit! Quickly, or you’ll also suffer from the backlash of the Nine Nether Qi!" Elder Yan hurriedly warned.

Hearing this, Shen Haoran quickly closed his eyes, shut off his senses, and continued to draw downwards relying solely on his Spiritual Thought. He really didn’t dare to open his eyes; he was afraid he’d die from blood loss!

From the young woman’s chest downwards, Shen Haoran was in constant torment as his fingers traced across her skin, which was as smooth as fine jade! This torture lasted for an unknown amount of time. After tapping a few points on the young woman’s lower abdomen, he finally completed the Nine Nether Reincarnation Seal! Immediately after, without even a moment to check the girl’s condition, Shen Haoran bolted out of the cave to vent!

Watching the energetic Shen Haoran, Elder Yan couldn’t help but sigh, "Ah, to be young..."
