Thinking about the benefits of consuming the Mixed Essence Bone Changing Elixir and the potential benefits in the future, Ling Dong picked up the jade bottle containing the elixir without hesitation!
Uncorking the bottle, a fresh medicinal fragrance wafted into Ling Dong's nostrils. Ling Dong greedily took in a big breath. He couldn't let go of this little bit of medicinal fragrance!
The medicinal effect of a mid-grade Heaven tier pill was extremely powerful. Just by inhaling a mouthful of medicinal fragrance, Ling Dong felt that the strength of his meridians had increased by twenty to thirty percent after it circulated through his body once!
Previously, his meridians had reached the strength of Xiantian Realm Level Seven after absorbing the energy from the blood of the Golden-scaled Snake. However, at this moment, the strength of his meridians had actually risen to Xiantian Realm Level Eight.
After greedily absorbing the medicinal effects of this medicinal fragrance, Ling Dong raised the jade bottle and poured the longan-sized elixir into his palm.
The moment it fell, Ling Dong was dumbfounded. His eyes widened instantly. "F * ck, it can't be!"
Looking at the elixir that had suddenly turned into powder, Ling Dong's eyes were filled with disappointment. Such a valuable elixir had actually turned into powder after such a long time?
"It turned into powder?" Ling Dong bit his tongue harshly. He realized that this wasn't an illusion. That priceless Mixed Essence Bone Changing Elixir that all warriors had gone crazy over had actually turned into powder.
Suddenly, Ling Dong seemed to have thought of something. He crazily opened the jade bottles on the table one by one and poured out the elixirs. However, without exception, Ling Dong discovered that all the elixirs had turned into powder the moment he poured them out!
In an instant, Ling Dong was like a deflated balloon and almost fell to the ground. That huge surprise and sudden disappearance made Ling Dong feel very hurt.
However, Ling Dong wasn't defeated by this huge gap. He took a deep breath and exhaled, as if exhaling all the disappointment out of his body. His expression then calmed down!
Then, Ling Dong calmly began to put the corks back on the bottles one by one. Restore! Ling Dong knew very well that he wasn't the only one exploring the Ancient Secret Star Mansion this time. After a certain period of time, there would be a huge monster rushing in. And Ling Dong wanted to be the oriole behind the mantis stalking the cicada!
"I didn't expect this Myriad Stars House to have existed here five hundred years ago. In other words, it lost its owner five hundred years ago!" said Ling Dong as he cleaned up and restored!
The reason for this inference was very simple. Elixirs refined by Alchemists were all refined medicinal essences, and refined Elixirs would not be lost within a short period of time as long as they were properly sealed!
By 'short period of time', it meant within a hundred years! Once a pill refined by an alchemist exceeded a hundred years, its efficacy would begin to fade away. Even if it was completely sealed in a jade bottle, it was impossible. No matter how good a pill was, with the passage of time, it would lose its original appearance.
When a bottle of elixirs was kept for more than three hundred years, it would gradually turn into powder due to the loss of most of its efficacy. And it would take at least five hundred years for it to completely turn into powder! These theories were all recorded in Alchemy Manuals of Alchemists.
Of course, it was also possible to preserve a bottle of elixirs for a long time. They could be stored directly in a mustard seed space such as a Cosmos Ring. As long as the mustard seed space didn't collapse, the elixirs could be preserved for a long time.
"What a pity that I can't enjoy so many elixirs!" After cleaning up and restoring the jade bottles as much as possible, Ling Dong, somewhat disappointed, was ready to leave.
Perhaps it was because his eyes were dazzled, or perhaps it was because this place was filled with jade, Ling Dong did not notice a piece of jade placed in the middle of all the jade bottles. It was a piece of sparkling and translucent jade!
It wasn't until he turned his head and glanced at it from the corner of his eye that Ling Dong discovered the piece of jade!
"Ancient Golden Square!" Inside the jade, there were four small words that seemed to exist naturally. It was as if the words were directly born inside the jade! When Ling Dong held it in his hand, the jade piece faintly emitted a large amount of light. When Ling Dong probingly inserted a strand of green aura Qi into it, the jade piece actually began to faintly reveal small but unrecognizable characters!
"Jade Scroll, it's actually the Alchemy Jade Scroll!" This time, it was Ling Dong's turn to be shocked. Ling Dong didn't expect that this legendary Alchemy Jade Scroll would appear in front of him!
In the Tiangang Continent, this Alchemy Jade Scroll was just a legend! It was said that among the Tiangang Realm experts who could use Divine Soul Power, they could completely imprint what they learned in their mind onto a specially refined jade. This kind of jade was called the Jade Scroll.
However, this kind of Jade Scroll consumed a lot of Divine Soul Power to make, so unless it was something extremely complicated or important, the Jade Scroll wouldn't be used to record it.
Moreover, this Jade Scroll had a flaw. It didn't mean that anyone could use this Jade Scroll after getting it! Similarly, to use this Jade Scroll, one also needed to know how to use Divine Soul Power!
Knowing how to use Divine Soul Power was the patent of the Tiangang Realm experts. In other words, only the Tiangang Realm experts could use Divine Soul Power to read the precious information recorded in this Jade Scroll!
"The Elixir Pill Jade Scroll is called the Ancient Golden Prescription. The elixir formula inside must be extremely precious!" Ling Dong carefully put the Jade Scroll into his Qian Kun Ring and started to ponder.
In terms of preciousness, even if the Mixed Bone Changing Elixir didn't turn into powder, it wouldn't be one-tenth as precious as this Alchemy Jade Scroll containing Ancient Golden Square!
Legend had it that the Ancient Golden Square was simple and extremely effective. However, it was lost in the chaotic war 800 years ago. Being an alchemist was a special profession. Many times, it needed to be taught by words and deeds!
Eight hundred years ago, in the War of Destruction that lasted for nearly a hundred years, countless powerhouses fell. At the same time, the inheritance of alchemists was also nearly destroyed. Many of the extremely powerful ancient golden recipes that were passed down by word of mouth directly disappeared!
Now that Ling Dong had obtained this Alchemy Jade Scroll that recorded the Ancient Golden Square, how could he not be surprised!
"With this Alchemy Jade Scroll that recorded the Ancient Golden Square, becoming a Heavenly Alchemist wouldn't be a chasm for me anymore, right?" After thinking to himself, Ling Dong clenched his fists tightly. "Earth Realm. As long as I break through to the Earth Realm, I will be able to read the information in this Alchemy Jade Scroll!"
That's right, the Earth Realm! As long as he broke through to the Earth Realm, Ling Dong would have a secret technique that would allow him to use the power of his soul for a short period of time. At that time, he would be able to read the information in the Alchemy Jade Scroll!
The Heaven Realm was too far away from the current Ling Dong. However, the Earth Realm wasn't too far away!
Before leaving, Ling Dong even pushed out a gentle wind from his palm in order to sweep away the extremely inconspicuous footprints on the ground. After that, Ling Dong closed the two bronze doors and stepped out!
After stepping out, Ling Dong once again appeared in the Starlight Passage that was reflected by the thousands of stars in the sky. This time, Ling Dong wasn't in a hurry to calculate the direction and look for the Starlight Door again!
Instead, he went back to the entrance and got the Cat Spirit to command the adult Star Serpents to move the Star Serpent King's corpse into the snake house where the Star Serpents stayed. After that, he completely cleaned up the traces of the battle here.
Since he wanted to be the oriole, he had to be a qualified oriole. He definitely couldn't leave any traces behind!
After doing all this, Ling Dong walked back to the sky under the sky where thousands of stars revolved. He calculated the direction again and continued to look for the Starlight Door.
Looking for the Starlight Door was a rather laborious task. Even though Ling Dong was very experienced in this aspect, it took at least 15 minutes to calculate and find a Starlight Door according to the orbit of the stars in the sky. If there was a small mistake, the time taken would be even longer!
However, what made Ling Dong depressed was that in the next four hours, he found a total of seven Starlight Doors. However, none of the Starlight Doors were the Thousand Star Palace that contained the complete Big Dipper Technique that Ling Dong was aiming for.
The seven Starlight Doors were either the Zither Pavilion or the Art Room. There were also two times where he repeated to the Elixir Room and the Zither Pavilion. When he didn't find anything, Ling Dong was very anxious!
According to Ling Dong's calculations, Gu Tongtian and the people outside the Starlight Fog Barrier should be coming in soon, right?
Before this, Ling Dong had roughly analyzed the Barrier Avoidance Pill that Purple Cloth Valley's Old Fifth had given him. According to the medicinal effect of the Barrier Avoidance Pill, it could only delay the poison from the fog barrier for two to four hours!
Moreover, the thousands of young Star Serpents wouldn't allow those warriors to live for more than two to four hours. Ling Dong estimated that before those warriors died, Gu Tongtian and the others would come in! If Gu Tongtian and the others came in, Ling Dong probably wouldn't have many chances to find the Thousand Star Palace!
Therefore, Ling Dong didn't have much time left! If he couldn't find the Thousand Star Palace and obtain the complete Big Dipper Technique, then there was no need for him to be the oriole behind the mantis stalking the cicada!
The complete Big Dipper Technique was Ling Dong's first goal. It was also a goal that he had to achieve!
However, Ling Dong's psychological quality, which had been honed from nearly a hundred narrow escapes in his previous life, made him even calmer in the face of danger.
Ling Dong calculated for a moment. According to his current method of relying on luck, he might be able to find the Thousand Star Palace the next time, but it was also possible that he still wouldn't be able to find the Thousand Star Palace for the next ten times. However, it was impossible for Ling Dong to find the Thousand Star Palace for the next ten times!
"Thousand Star Palace?" A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Ling Dong's mind as he frowned and pondered bitterly. He swiftly closed his eyes and started to recall the situation in the Residence of Ten Thousand Stars during the great turning point in his life in his previous life!
Especially the distribution of the stars in the starry sky above the dome, he began to recall which stars he had followed to find the Myriad Star Palace!
The memory of that huge turn in his life left a deep impression on Ling Dong. Even though more than a hundred years had passed, Ling Dong's mind still recalled the situation when he found the Thousand Star Palace!
After a few breaths, Ling Dong opened his eyes and turned to a direction. After corresponding to the stars in the sky dome, he closed his eyes and began to walk as if he had the help of God!
Starting three steps to the left, turning five steps to the right, advancing seven steps diagonally, retreating two steps to the right, advancing four steps diagonally to the left … He walked seven steps straight and then stopped. Then, Ling Dong opened his eyes.
A door of starlight appeared in front of Ling Dong.
A mysterious black sword pierced through the door of starlight. Ling Dong's gaze suddenly froze and then became pleasantly surprised!
"Thousand Star Palace!" These five domineering words jumped into Ling Dong's eyes.
