Adapted from Er Gen's novel Yi Nian Yong Heng (A Will Eternal)
The path to immortality is boundless
The elixirs in the study room
fill the view with a tinkling
Who is singing?
Who is hopeful?
Who is standing in the skies?
Many have come
but few have achieved the Dao
rushing towards the end
Who is making a fuss?
Who is at ease?
Outwardly, I
pretend to be somewhat cowardly and weak
You all don't understand
and feel somewhat puzzled
He asked when will
my cultivation come to fruition
Could the secret to
longevity be loneliness?
Could it be that mortals should be ordinary?
I want to succeed on this path to immortality
have a long life and never grow old
Achieve my cultivation by relying on hard work
not by relying on luck
I didn't come here to
view the scenery
Being at my best will
surpass your expectations
Even if the moon is asleep
I will still persevere until dawn
What do you wholeheartedly long for?
Isn't it something everlasting?
Prove it
even if you are just mortal
Afraid of leaving
these dreaded tear stains
Possess a
thorough understanding
The sky will clear and the clouds will break
Completely reform
this ordinary physical body
until the transformation of
this resplendent primordial spirit
finally
becomes one with nature and eternal
A Will Eternal Inseparable arc
Episode 51
Half a day has already passed
Why is there still no movement?
I've already used all my moves
If it still doesn't work
I really have no other solutions
I wonder what brought you here
so suddenly, Grand Elder
That pill of yours was dirty
so I threw it away
Refine another one for me
I want the Charming Fragrance Pill
Threw it away?
What a waste of all my efforts
This fragrance
is clearly the scent of my Spiritual Fragrance Pill
So you've eaten the pill
and want me to refine another one
Looks like the previous matter
is settled now
Didn't she just leave?
What now?
I am a disciple from Lesser Marsh Peak
under orders from the Grand Elder
to respectfully invite you over, Guardian Ye
I'm coming
Blood Stream Sect Lesser Marsh Peak
War is approaching
Every peak is making preparations for it
The Blood Body Pill can help my Lesser Marsh cultivators
substantially increase their cultivation
So
what I need isn't just one pill
but a hundred pills
Can you achieve this?
You must be stunned by my cauldron
This is a replica of the World Cauldron
It's extraordinary
Furthermore,
it will never have any mishaps like explosions
All right
I'll refine the pills
I'm glad to hear that
I shall not disturb you then
Ancient elephants
Savage ghosts
So the
body refinement technique is hidden in the stone walls
These totems
have a shocking resemblance to the Undying Power
It's said that the four peaks' secret techniques
were created from researching the giant's hand
The giant and I
truly share the same foundation
Then I shall use this blessed place
to increase my strength in the
Undying Power and the medicinal path
Will it really not explode?
I'll first try one with ten times the usual potency
This is truly a treasure furnace
Usually, I've to play it safe when refining elixirs
This time
I can finally practice more intense medicinal methods
I shall try one with maximum potency
The body refinement technique
fuses the body with external blood Qi
The secret technique catalyzes the
transformation of the body's structure
bringing out the power of corporeal body
The Undying Power doesn't change the body's structure
but brings out unlimited power from inside the body
It has both offense and defense
The two techniques look similar
but they actually run counter to each other
If I just adopt its best features
and neutralize them,
it can help me achieve faster
breakthroughs in the Undying Power
Damn
Is this pill furnace about to explode?
If such a big pill furnace
explodes,
wouldn't my life be...
Ye Zang, my boy,
where are you going?
Our elixir...
Don't worry
I've already refined the elixir
It just needs to be incubated for some time
Now
I'm going to Nameless Peak
since I've also promised to refine elixirs for them
But this lightning...
You said before that
no mishaps will happen with this pill furnace
Don't touch the pill furnace during this time
Otherwise, if the elixir disintegrates
you will bear the consequences yourself
Bear the consequences myself?
Blood Stream Sect Nameless Peak
The plague demon is coming
to Nameless Peak to refine elixirs
We should go into hiding now
before he destroys this place
Nameless Peak is willing to pour everything we have
into the refining of the Undying Blood Pill
Now
all of our hopes rest on you
Speaking of which, I can say you were meant for this task
Great
This pill was created by the Blood Perfected Being who also comprehended the Sacred Pill of Ruin
Why are you giving me this elaborate story?
You just want me to refine a pill for you
Unfortunately,
the pill scroll he left behind is cryptic and complex
No one has been able to refine it so far
If it's so complex,
I might not be able to succeed either
This is somewhat difficult
Difficult?
This is a demon of Nameless Peak
A few days without training has
given it the courage to do evil again
It even dared to attack my precious guest
Demon?
Ye, my boy, you seem unaware of this
Adult demons can be found all over Nameless Peak
But as long as you focus on refining elixirs
you definitely will not be in any danger
Patriarch
that demon of Nameless Peak
confounds people's minds
and commits unseen murders
If they threaten us with this
Ye Zang might have a mishap
Ye Zang
is indeed a genius of the medicinal path
He is considered
loyal to Middle Peak
But the Blood Master trial is approaching
there are certain matters
that our Song family must not rashly get involved with
I understand
But Ye Zang is an important candidate
for my Blood Master trial
Patriarch, I beg you
to protect him
Is Ye Zang that important
to you?
You may leave
Understood
I never expected Wan'er
to have someone she cares about
The last few times you refined elixirs,
you were ultimately successful despite the obstacles
I believe you will not disappoint me either this time
After you
Guard this place
You must watch Guardian Ye very closely
That old fox is
afraid that I'll run
You want to control me
Not only do I have to refine an elixir
I also have to refine it without any mishaps this time
I'll use your place
to wash away my reputation as the plague demon
The Undying Blood Pill
contains 97 kinds of herbs
Every herb is
in an ever-changing state
Some need to be completely neutralized
Some absorb the energy of the first fusion
Heaven-reaching river water
is used to suppress them
until they fuse together
Finally, the
Blood Ancestor's spiritual blood is added
vaporizing it into
up to nine different streams of blood Qi
From there, one can then refine
the Undying Blood Pills
of the first grade to the ninth grade
I wasted such good ingredients for nothing
Pity that
it's just a useless pill
Looks like there was an issue with the combination
Don't tell me this is
a newborn demon?
It doesn't have a material body
Quite interesting
So this demon didn't evolve from a soul of the dead
neither does it exist to reproduce
It's really a naturally demonic creature
Do you want this?
So you can tell what's valuable, you little creature
Although it's a useless pill,
it still contains a lot of essence
You swallowed it in one go
In that case
I might as well make it my subordinate
to test out elixirs for me
You're merely a newborn demon
yet you dare attack me
Demons are bloodthirsty by nature and rebellious
Even if a drop of blood is used to make it subservient,
it is still likely to attack its own master
So
they need to be suppressed
You must not be softhearted
I see that you can be useful
so I'll spare you this time
From now on,
I am your master
and you'll be called Xiao Hei
If you dare act rashly again
you will suffer for it
Now, I've something important to do
You just stay beside me and stand guard
I've been getting useless pills
even when working with several furnaces
This pill is truly difficult to refine
Pills of the second-grade and higher
require a lot of deductions
A third-grade pill is ten times
more complex than a second-grade pill
But if I tried all the combinations one by one
I'm afraid I'll spend the rest of my life doing this
The Undying Blood Pill was created
by the Blood Perfected Being who also
successfully comprehended the
Pill Wall to create a type of elixir
that can push the entire Blood Stream Sect forward
The Sacred Pill of Ruin?
If I use the All Flora principle to analyze this
there might be an opportunity for success
97 kinds of herbs
Most of them are used to balance the
medicinal properties and remove impurities
They don't actually affect the potency of the elixir
some even obstruct the vaporization of blood Qi
If I refine the elixir in reverse
I only need to resolve the required potency for the elixir
Following the All Flora principle,
first carry out purification
then run the combinations
This can save me half of the herbs
Simplify the process
If I use this method
I can even control the effect of the elixir
I'll secretly decrease its potency
as a backup
for the future
In the end
I still fell short of success
No way
Is the furnace going to explode again?
Xiao Hei
absorb it
Xiao Hei, you're really amazing
Not only has your cultivation improved
you also helped me remove
the danger of an exploding furnace
Taking you in
was indeed a wise decision
After I'm done, I'll leave
everything here to you
The Grand Elder was honest with me
You're really an ungrateful wretch
Today, I'll give you a proper lesson
on the concept of master and servant!
I spared your life
because you're still useful
Do you know what you should do now?
Grand Elder
There has been no movement in the pill chamber
for a long time ever since the last commotion
Why are the guards unconscious?
They were fine just now
They were hit with hallucinogenic agent
Hurry
open the cave door
Strange
where is he?
Move aside!
Why is there a demon with such
exceptional cultivation inside the pill chamber?
I left in dissatisfaction after completing this task
You owe me
a gift of thanks
This is...
my elixir
You want to imprison me with just a few guards?
I've finished refining the elixirs
I should return to Middle Peak
But
I feel like I've forgotten something
The faraway flowers dance in a stream of light
The cold frost slowly settles on the long path
It is hard to tell if the falling stars are facing each other
People's lives go on as old dreams fade
Emotions stem from the mortal world
the purest of songs are most heartbreaking
Charge alone with your beautiful dream
forget about next morning's wine
Reminisce about old friends
Lament that very little can be said with the sword
Laughing foolishly as the years waste away
for the graying young man
Emotions stem from the mortal world
the purest of songs are most heartbreaking
Tread forward alone
with only gratitude and loyalty in the heart
Know the frivolity of this life
Lament that very little can be said with the sword
Laughing foolishly, alone and forgotten
Where did that naive young man's dream go?
