Volume 1, Chapter 34 – Divine Clay of Creation

Reconstruct her physical body! Live another life!

This had been Yun Miaoyi’s deepest longing throughout the endless years since her fall!

“Miaoyi… kowtows in gratitude for the Palace Master’s grace of rebirth! Even if I died a hundred deaths, I could never repay even the smallest fraction of this kindness!”

Gu Han waved a hand and said no more.

She first took out the Ice Soul Fruit.

The ice-blue fruit gave off a faint, chilly glow and an aura of pure soul power.

A wisp of refined spiritual power gathered at Gu Han’s fingertip. She wrapped it around the Ice Soul Fruit and gently guided it forward.

The Ice Soul Fruit instantly transformed into a streak of ice-blue light and entered Yun Miaoyi’s remnant soul, nourishing her nearly depleted soul origin.

Her illusory figure visibly became more solid.

The soothing sensation of her soul being repaired and replenished nearly brought tears to her eyes.

A long-lost sense of “wholeness” and “peace” filled her heart.

“Mmm…”

Yun Miaoyi also could not help letting out a soft moan of comfort.

Gu Han heard this second undisguised moan, one filled with extreme pleasure.

Then she looked at Yun Miaoyi’s relaxed soul body and radiant expression.

Even after ten years of enduring the life of an overworked drudge, the corner of Gu Han’s mouth still twitched slightly.

She instinctively lowered her head and glanced at the voluptuous, curvaceous body beneath her Flowing Immortal Dress.

An extremely complicated emotion welled up within her.

“What kind of situation is this…?”

She sighed silently in her heart.

“I’m clearly a full-grown man in soul, yet not only am I trapped in this body…”

“I also have to stand here listening to two women… make sounds that could tempt someone into wicked thoughts…”

“System, are you sure this isn’t some twisted arrangement of yours?”

[Ding! The System has detected emotional fluctuations in the Host. Friendly reminder: the Host currently possesses a female body. Please keep your Dao heart clear.]

“…Clear your head!”

Gu Han rolled her eyes inwardly and suppressed the absurd complaint.

She composed herself and watched as Yun Miaoyi’s soul body gradually stabilized and solidified under the nourishment of the Ice Soul Fruit.

The remnant soul that had once been unbearably weak now resembled a substantial phantom.

Although it was still far from a complete soul, at least there was no longer any risk of it dissipating at any moment.

“How do you feel?” Gu Han asked.

Hearing Gu Han’s question, Yun Miaoyi immediately awoke from her intoxicated state.

Feeling the unprecedented stability and fullness of her soul body, she bowed again in excitement.

“Miaoyi feels… better than ever! My soul origin is stable, my spiritual awareness is clear, and even my memories of the past have become much sharper!”

“It is good that you have stabilized.”

Gu Han nodded slightly and raised the lump of Divine Clay of Creation in her hand. It shimmered with five-colored light and wriggled faintly.

“Next, I will reconstruct your physical body.”

“This is Divine Clay of Creation. With it as the foundation, I can reconstruct a body for you that may one day have the potential to enter Immortal Ascension.”

Yun Miaoyi’s soul body trembled slightly from excitement as she listened to Gu Han’s explanation.

The potential to ascend to immortality!

That was something she had never even dared to imagine.

In life, she had only reached Mahayana. She never expected that, after death, a mere wisp of her remnant soul would receive such a heaven-defying opportunity!

“I will follow the Palace Master’s arrangements in all things!”

Yun Miaoyi’s voice was filled with reverence and anticipation.

Gu Han said no more. With a movement of her divine sense, vast immortal spiritual qi enveloped the Divine Clay of Creation.

Under the catalysis of the immortal spiritual qi, the divine clay seemed to come alive and slowly began to stretch and transform.

First, it outlined a vague human silhouette. Then came the details of the facial features, limbs, and torso…

Under the meticulous control of Gu Han’s powerful divine sense, each detail gradually emerged.

The entire process resembled a sacred work of art being created by the most masterful artisan.

Gu Han’s divine sense precisely controlled every minute change, striving for perfection.

After all, the future owner of this body would become the Pavilion Master of Yaochi Immortal Palace’s Alchemy Pavilion. There could be no carelessness whatsoever.

Using the appearance of Yun Miaoyi’s soul body as a reference, Gu Han also made several improvements.

She enhanced the body’s sensitivity to fire- and wood-attributed spiritual power.

This was vitally important to an alchemist.

Approximately the time it took an incense stick to burn passed.

A woman’s body, eight or nine parts similar to Yun Miaoyi in appearance yet younger and more graceful, floated quietly in the air above the main hall.

A faint halo radiated from the body. It brimmed with vitality while its Dao resonance remained restrained, like a work of art fashioned by heaven and earth.

“Yun Miaoyi, enter it!”

Yun Miaoyi’s soul body had long since grown impatient. The moment she heard Gu Han’s command, she immediately transformed into a streak of light.

She entered the perfect body formed from the Divine Clay of Creation.

Buzz!

The instant soul and flesh merged, the newborn body erupted with brilliant five-colored radiance!

Flesh, meridians, bones, and internal organs were fully activated the moment the soul took residence.

They perfected and connected themselves in a profound manner, forming a flawless cycle.

Vast vitality and immense spiritual power began surging and circulating through the body.

Her cultivation, which had been nonexistent while she remained a soul body, began recovering and climbing at an inconceivable speed!

Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul…

With almost every breath, she crossed an entire major realm!

Spirit Transformation, Void Return, Body Integration…

Finally, her aura came to a steady halt at the early stage of Mahayana!

Although this was somewhat lower than the peak of Mahayana she had possessed in life, this physical body had limitless potential.

As long as she did not perish, reaching Immortal Ascension in the future might not be impossible.

The light gradually receded.

Yun Miaoyi, or rather, her newborn body, slowly opened her eyes.

They were as clear as autumn waters, yet also held the wisdom accumulated through long years.

She lowered her head and looked at her solid, jade-like hands. She felt the surging vitality and vast spiritual power within her body.

She also sensed the perfect body’s extraordinary affinity with the fire- and wood-attributed spiritual power of heaven and earth…

Immense joy and gratitude instantly overwhelmed her.

She landed barefoot on the floor, and a pale cyan dress naturally materialized around her body.

Facing Gu Han on the cloud couch, she performed an ancient and solemn kowtow.

“Miaoyi offers her deepest thanks to the Palace Master for granting me rebirth!”

“From this day forward, both this body and soul belong to the Palace Master. Whatever your command, I will carry it out even at the cost of ten thousand deaths!”

Her voice was no longer illusory. It was warm and pleasant, trembling with genuine emotion.

[Ding! Special talent “Yun Miaoyi” has officially assumed her position. Soul-body reconstruction complete!]

[Congratulations, Host. You have obtained the “Alchemy Grandmaster” Grand Gift Pack!]

[Distributing gift pack contents…]

[Congratulations, Host. You have obtained the Lingbao Alchemy Scripture, the supreme inheritance of the Alchemical Dao!]

[Congratulations, Host. You have obtained a wisp of Purple Extreme Spirit Flame, a growth-type alchemical flame!]

[Congratulations, Host. You have obtained the Myriad-Phenomena Medicinal Garden. It contains a small independent space capable of simulating countless environments for cultivating spiritual herbs!]

Listening to the system announce such generous rewards, Gu Han looked at the respectful and grateful Yun Miaoyi before her.

She also glanced at Gu Luoli, who was still undergoing her transformation within the three-colored halo, her aura becoming increasingly complete.

A deep sense of accomplishment filled Gu Han’s heart.

The Alchemy Pavilion now had its core figure, while a future supreme expert with double pupils was also rising.

The framework of Yaochi Immortal Palace was becoming sturdier by the day.

“Rise.”

Gu Han accepted Yun Miaoyi’s bow and spoke gently.

“Now that you have been reborn, let the matters of your former life disperse like smoke.”

“From now on, you will be the Pavilion Master of Yaochi Immortal Palace’s Alchemy Pavilion, responsible for passing down the Alchemical Dao and refining medicinal pills.”

“Today, I bestow upon you the Lingbao Alchemy Scripture and the Purple Extreme Spirit Flame. Study them well.”

As she spoke, she handed Yun Miaoyi the two supreme treasures the system had just rewarded her.

Yun Miaoyi received them with both hands. The moment her divine sense made contact, her entire body trembled violently!

The profound principles of the Alchemical Dao contained within the Lingbao Alchemy Scripture far surpassed her understanding.

The wisp of Purple Extreme Spirit Flame was also overflowing with spirituality, leaping merrily in her palm.

It resonated perfectly with the fire-attributed spiritual power in her new body, as though it had always been a part of her!

“This… Palace Master, such precious treasures… What virtue or ability does Miaoyi possess to deserve them?” Yun Miaoyi was so moved that her words became incoherent.

“Miaoyi, since I am giving them to you, it means I believe you are worthy.”

Gu Han waved a hand, cutting her off.

“First familiarize yourself with your new body and these inheritances. Later, I will establish a medicinal garden.”

“Yes! Miaoyi accepts your command!” Yun Miaoyi carefully put away the treasures as though they were priceless.

At that moment, Gu Luoli, who remained enveloped in the Three-Light Divine Water’s radiance nearby, suddenly underwent another change!

A profoundly mysterious aura quietly spread outward with her at its center.

At the same time, her own aura finally climbed to its peak.

Her flawless Dao foundation was completely forged, and with the aid of the Three-Light Divine Water, her cultivation broke through to the peak of Foundation Establishment in one stroke.

Gu Luoli slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, feeling the immense power within her body and her flawless, solid Dao foundation.

Everything felt like a dream.
