Chapter 494: Like Leaping Across Tens of Thousands of Years
Su Yizhi continued, “That bit of divine stone was thus split into five pieces and are respectively known as Leaving Fire Bead, Dazzling Heart Stone, Reincarnation Stamp, Underworld Wheel, and Heaven And Earth Split. Legends have it that it is only by gathering these five Divine Stones Of Chaos together that one will be able to see through the mysteries of heaven and earth, predict life and death and avoid the cycle of reincarnation. But legends are ultimately just legends, I am fearful that even the great sects have not come across these five divine stones. Who knows if what the legends say even bear any truth?”
“Then is my stone for real?” asked Ling Chuxi. Although she just asked such a question, her heart had already determined that this was indeed the Dazzling Heart Stone, one of the five Divine Stones Of Chaos. Because earlier on, the feeling of the entire universe’s reincarnation passing her by had felt so real, it was as if she had leapt across time over tens of thousands of years and had personally experienced the evolution of the world.
“How would I know how to confirm that?” replied Su Yizhi with a bitter laugh. Regaining his senses from his initial shock, he looked at the black bead on Ling Chuxi’s wrist again and saw that it didn’t look any different from any little stone that had been simply picked up by a roadside, so he did not dare to be too sure of his suspicions. After all, the ray of light had merely appeared for a split moment and he did not undergo the same experience Ling Chuxi did.
“But of course! How could such precious treasure that created the heavens and earth fall into my hands? I must have thought too much,” said Ling Chuxi with a laugh.
“That’s too true! I’ve heard that all the main sects have been looking for the legendary Divine Stones Of Chaos for the past tens of thousands of years. If one of them was really obtained by you somehow, then your luck is just a little too good,” laughed Su Yizhi. After that, he said seriously. “No matter whether it is or not, it would be an item of great danger to you. If you do not have sufficient cultivation to protect yourself, it would only bring you the danger of being murdered by those who want it.”
“I got it, Old Su,” replied Ling Chuxi solemnly. She knew that Su Yizhi was saying this for her own good and thus gathered her sleeves forward to hide the Dazzling Heart Stone from view.
“However, Chuxi, your level of talent really surprises me. I have never met someone like you who has such strong innate talent. With the Golden Pill Sect in your hands, we will definitely be able to develop and shine,” proclaimed Su Yizhi. At this moment when he looked at the pill furnace, he regained his senses and became extremely emotional. His heart was filled with anticipation towards what Ling Chuxi could do. A person like her with such strong innate talent could be said to be hard to find. Not only was such a person hard to come by in a hundred years, such a person would be hard to come by even in a thousand years.
Ling Chuxi smiled but did not say anything.
After that brief interlude, Su Yizhi taught Ling Chuxi some more minor details in terms of pill refinement and then left so Ling Chuxi could continue to ponder alone. The Crisis Reverse Pill was no ordinary medicinal pill. Besides needing a certain level of cultivation, and the right time and place, elements such as chance and fate could not be missing from the equation as well. Having success in refining it this time did not necessarily mean that one would be successful the next time. Therefore, nobody dared to be careless when refining such a pill.
After Su Yizhi left, Ling Chuxi was is no rush to practice. Instead, she started studying the Dazzling Heart Stone. If her guess was correct, there was definitely some kind of seal placed on it. Normally, the stone would appear very ordinary, without anything wonderous about it. It was only when the seal was lifted that the stone’s true appearance could be seen.
Ling Chuxi once again combined the application and acupuncture methods with her Battle Qi like she did earlier on, wanting to lift the seal on the Dazzling Heart Stone once again, but no matter how hard she tried, what happened earlier did not reoccur. It seemed like it had merely been a coincidence. Ling Chuxi could only give up and sit down to think again after a while.
The medical skills of the Golden Pill Sect had been divided into three streams and she herself had only learnt two of them thus far. Due to chance and fate, she had coincidentally lifted the seal of the Dazzling Heart Stone earlier on. If she was able to master all three Golden Pill Sect streams of medical skills, then was there not a chance that the seal could be completely lifted? Thinking about this, Ling Chuxi could not help but become more excited, anticipating the battle against Life Transformation Hall all the more.
