Chapter 0880: Am I Not Qualified Enough?

“Swallow all the power of the Divine Pill Calamity?!” Huang Long was utterly shocked upon witnessing this!
This Divine Pill Calamity was controlled by the laws of the universe—how could the World Tree swallow it?!
But then Huang Long realized that the universe itself originated from the World Tree, and the laws of the heavens above the three thousand paths were all under the control of the World Tree; the World Tree itself was the law of heaven.
It wasn’t strange for the World Tree to swallow the power within the Divine Pill Calamity!
Realizing this, Huang Long was overjoyed.
If that was the case, did it mean there was no need to fear the Divine Pill Calamity when refining any kind of divine pill in the future?! As long as all the ingredients were gathered and refined using the Sacred Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, success would be guaranteed at 100%?!
It was defying heaven!
This was truly the extraordinary aspect of the World Tree!
You see, the higher-ranked the divine pill, the more severe its calamity—especially those among the top ten. Even saints might not be able to dispel their calamities and guarantee 100% success in refinement.
But with the World Tree, none of this was a problem!
The Supreme Divine Pill ranked fifteenth!
There were over a hundred known divine pills in the three thousand great worlds of the universe. Each one possessed immense medicinal power, with greater power the higher its rank.
Rumor had it that the number one pill was called the Qiankun Sacred Pill, containing the power of Qiankun. If given to an ordinary person, it would instantly elevate them to a semi-saint!
That’s right—semi-saint!
However, to create this Qiankun Sacred Pill required 129,600 different ingredients, as many as the arrays within the Sacred Cauldron of Heaven and Earth! Each of these 129,600 ingredients was extremely rare, and throughout countless ages, not a single saint had ever succeeded in refining it.
Huang Long sighed in admiration. At that moment, the World Tree, having swallowed the power of the Divine Pill Calamity, emitted an increasingly bright green glow. Then, the power from the calamity transformed into streams of gentle energy that sprayed out from the tree, merging with the lightning energy of the calamity pillars into the Supreme Divine Pill.
With a hum in the void and dazzling multicolored light, one after another Supreme Divine Pill emerged from the emptiness.
The refinement of the Supreme Divine Pill was successful!
There were a total of 108 pills, each crystal clear and radiant, charmingly lively, about the size of a thumb, emitting a faint glow and auspicious aura. Their fragrance was subtle yet persistent. When Huang Long inhaled it, a warm current flowed through his entire body, clearing his mind.
“As expected, Supreme Divine Pills!” Huang Long was delighted, but then shook his head. “It’s a pity, though. Only the top ten divine pills are truly useful for us semi-saints in our cultivation!”

Of course, the Yellow Dragon’s consumption of the Supreme Divine Pills for cultivation was beneficial to both its physical body and the Sea of Souls, though the effects were not very noticeable. Then, the Yellow Dragon used the remaining materials to craft nine more batches of Supreme Divine Pills—a total of over 1,100 pills. To the Yellow Dragon’s surprise, after devouring the power from ten batches of these pills during the trials, the World Tree grew significantly! It now reached over 30,000 zhang in height, with layers of green light surrounding its trunk, and it appeared somewhat different from before. As for exactly what was different, the Yellow Dragon couldn’t discern it at first. Moreover, the artifact “All Heavens and Worlds” became even more solidified, with the 33 divine artifacts merging further with the Dragon Gate. “This World Tree truly has amazing powers! It can even devour the power from divine pill trials, transforming it into purer energy and further solidifying the artifact ‘All Heavens and Worlds,’” the Yellow Dragon thought to itself. “Oke said that mastering the entire World Tree and understanding its mysteries could lead to breaking through to the realm of Chaos and Void. It’s a pity I don’t know when I’ll be able to find the other parts!” The Yellow Dragon, being connected to the World Tree through deep bonds, realized this was merely one in ten million of its wonders. “It seems I’ll need to spend more time searching for the other parts of the World Tree!” it thought. Just then, sudden loud booms came from outside, shaking the entire Nine Heavens Divine Realm. “Are some half-saints attacking the Nine Heavens Divine Realm?!” The Yellow Dragon’s expression changed. Outside the Nine Heavens Divine Realm, in the cosmic space, the Yellow Dragon had set up several innate grand arrays; only half-saints could shake the realm so greatly. Immediately, the Yellow Dragon used its Heavenly Eyes to see through countless spaces and identified four people attacking the realm. All four wore purple-black robes and armor—none other than half-saints! Four from one era, and one from each of the other three eras! “Nine Heavens, come out quickly!” one of them shouted. His voice, transmitted through the grand arrays, reached the Nine Heavens Divine Realm, allowing thousands of minor realms, tens of thousands of planets, hundreds of millions of divine-level warriors, and ordinary people to hear it clearly. “Could it be the enemies of the Nine Heavens Patriarch who have come?” the Yellow Dragon wondered. It emerged from the Sacred Cauldron and headed to the main hall of the Nine Heavens Sect. “Patriarch, you’re out!” The six panicked elders of the Nine Heavens Sect were overjoyed to see the Yellow Dragon. “Who are those outside?” the Yellow Dragon asked. “Patriarch, they are the Purple Dragon Dharma King under Patriarch Huanguang and three top experts under him!” one of the elders hurriedly replied. Then, the elder briefly explained the situation of Patriarch Huanguang and the Purple Dragon Dharma King.

The Ancestral Phantom Light was the ruler of a realm called the Phantom Light Divine Plane. He had ten powerful Dharma Kings under his command, and he himself was a warrior from five eras; all ten of his Dharma Kings were also warriors from four eras. In this region of the universe, his power was the greatest. As for why they had come, the elder of the Nine Heavens Sect couldn’t guess, but given their aggressive demeanor, it was likely they had ulterior motives. “Warriors from five eras!” Huang Long was slightly surprised. With his current strength at the peak of two eras, combined with the Chaos Bell, he could kill warriors from four eras, but only those of average strength. Against warriors at the peak of four eras, he could at most defeat them. If it were warriors from five eras, he could only retreat! It could be said that for half-saints, five eras marked a critical threshold—the difference between half-saints below five eras and those from five eras was akin to the difference between a Divine King and a half-saint! After pondering for a moment, Huang Long soared upward. He wanted to see what the Purple Dragon Dharma King intended! When Huang Long appeared, the four stopped attacking. “Four of you, what brings you to my Nine Heavens Divine Plane?” Huang Long asked them. Their appearance clearly surprised the four Purple Dragon Dharma Kings. “Who are you? At the peak of two eras, your strength is impressive. Are you the newly appointed vice-priest of the Nine Heavens?” The Purple Dragon Dharma King looked down at Huang Long and ordered, “Tell your priest to come out immediately. I have matters to discuss with him. You’re not qualified enough!” The Purple Dragon Dharma King was annoyed. Every time he came, the Nine Heavens Sect would send the entire sect to greet him. This time, they dared to act arrogantly, sending only a minor vice-priest! “Oh, I’m not qualified enough?” Huang Long’s eyes narrowed.
