A Farmer's Journey To Immortality - Chapter 213

Chapter 213: Foundation Stimulation Pill
The Shamrock Sanctuary Palace stood majestically atop Shamrock Peak, representing a harmonious blend of architecture and nature.

Vines coiled around the palace’s sturdy columns, their emerald tendrils weaving intricate patterns.

Lush foliage covered the walls, transforming the entire structure into a living, breathing sanctuary.

Trees, both young and ancient, grew around and over the palace, their branches swaying gently in the breeze, as if in reverence to the place.

This remarkable integration of nature with the palace was the direct result of Aksai’s dedicated practice of his Spirit cultivation technique, Sun-Moon Duality, and his body cultivation technique, Celestial Harmony.

Although Aksai could not make progress in the Argent Body Realm due to the lack of information related to the 2nd body cultivation realm, he still practiced Celestial Harmony and his martial arts. The practice enabled him to keep his qi energy to optimum levels all the time.

The air around the palace thrummed with life, energized by the potent cultivation techniques and the demon tree’s influence.

Since planting the demon tree, Aksai had noticed a significant increase in his progress. The tree’s roots, like serpentine sentinels, delved deep into the earth, spreading far and wide, reinforcing his connection. He could feel the demon tree’s presence even when he went away from Shamrock Peak, even without the Myriad World Painting.

Aksai was on the palace terrace, the perfect spot to practice his Sun-Moon Duality. As he focused his energies, he could feel the feverish heat coursing through his veins, a sign of his bloodline refinement.

The connection to the demon tree intensified, and the vegetation around him responded in kind. Plants and trees seemed to grow at an accelerated pace as if they had been injected with a potent life force. The once-serene environment of Shamrock Sanctuary became a vibrant, pulsating haven of natural energy.

When he finally stopped his cultivation, the growth of the vegetation ceased as well, and a profound quietude settled over the palace.

“Haah!”

Aksai took a deep breath, feeling a sense of accomplishment and connection to the land. He readjusted himself, his body now at ease, and descended from the terrace.

Inside the palace, his maids, Violet and Zara, awaited him. They pampered him, their gentle presence easing away the residual tension from his cultivation session.

Aksai savored these moments, enjoying the delicate balance between his rigorous training and the pleasures of life.

Feeling refreshed, he made his way to the dedicated alchemy hall within the palace. The hall was a sanctuary within a sanctuary, filled with the faint, aromatic scent of various herbs and concoctions. With a flick of his fingers, the door closed behind him, sealing him in a world of quiet focus.

Aksai approached his study table, where the three 2nd-order pill recipe scrolls from Nuya lay waiting. He unfurled one of the scrolls, his eyes scanning the intricate details of the recipe.

Each ingredient, each step of the process, held his full attention. The dim light of the alchemy hall cast a serene glow over his workspace, highlighting the meticulous care he put into his studies.

The alchemy hall in Aksai’s Shamrock Sanctuary Palace was adorned with intricate Array Formations.

Shelves lined the walls, filled with rare herbs and mystical ingredients, each carefully cataloged. At the center of the room stood the runic cauldron.

Aksai stood before the cauldron, ready to begin the process of pill formation.

[The modified Elemental Stability formation has been activated]

He had made some adjustments to the alchemy room and the Array Formation to accommodate the ancient methods described in the 2nd-order Foundational Stimulation pill recipe he had obtained.

The recipe, with its old-world complexity, required a blend of modern and ancient techniques.

[Analysis mode on. Real-time recording of the whole process has begun.]

Taking a deep breath, Aksai activated the neural link fabric, instructing it to record the entire process. The fabric’s spectral prompts appeared before him, guiding him through each step with precision.

He started by preparing the 1st-order and 2nd-order cultivation resources, laying them out meticulously on the workbench.

With his druid powers, Aksai began to refine the rare 2nd-order herbs and plants, infusing them with a potent life force. The herbs glowed with vibrant energy as their quality increased, their efficacy enhanced by his careful ministrations.

Aksai had many damaged 2nd-order cultivation resources from Haan Di’s auction events. The Spirit cultivators from Dadangar had no easy way to fix these damaged resources. However, Aksai was different. He was a druid.

With his druid abilities, Aksai knew he could imbue any cultivation herb or plant with potent life force, helping them recover. He could also use his powers to create an ideal environment for them inside isolated greenhouses.

Aksai did not hesitate to buy the damaged cultivation resources from the auction event. Not only were they easily available and cheap due to their damaged status, but buying them also did not attract any envy.

[The process for the Foundational Stimulation Pill has begun. No deviation from the original recipe has been observed so far.]

Aksai cast a series of hand signs, activating the Array Formation that regulated the pill formation process.

The runes on the cauldron flared to life, synchronizing with the Array Formation. The cauldron’s lid opened with a hiss, releasing a swirl of energy that filled the room.

One by one, Aksai added the ingredients to the cauldron, following the spectral prompts with exacting precision.

The cauldron’s interior shimmered with a mix of colors as the ingredients began to meld together.

Aksai’s hands moved with practiced ease, casting elemental Spirit spells to control the temperature and flow of Spirit essence within the cauldron.
