72 Attempting The Impossible (1/2)

Jam teleported a couple times, and used several detection abilities before concluding that no one could detect him or his actions. Still a bit paranoid from that encounter with the Yin Phantom, Jam used Divinity Form to hide himself with Soul Dispersion. Back when he was a mere Soul Condensing level cultivator, he could hide from mid level Saints. Now, he could even walk by low level Sages under Soul Dispersion's effects, with none the wiser.

He used Space God with his Main Divinity superpower and began teleporting. A minute later, he was close to a hundred million kilometers away, or far enough for his tastes. He carved out a cave in one of the mountains at random, making sure that the space inside was large enough for even Danger Noodle to run around comfortably.

A couple moments later, he took Xie Ming, Xie Xinyi, and Cynthia out of his Storage Dimension and turned to Xie Ming with the most serious face he had shown thus far. He said ”Nothing you see or hear while we are in this room is to be shared with a soul, understand?”

Jam wasn't playing around, and neither was Xie Ming as he immediately swore to his Dao that he would keep any and all of Jam's secrets to himself even if he died, or soul would perish before reincarnating.

Xie Ming was still under the effects of the Silver Blood Pill, though the backlash could start at any moment. The only reason it held out for this long was that Xie Ming was no longer recklessly abusing the overwhelming power the pill granted him.

Jam knew all of this since he was quite the knowledgeable pill master himself. He had long since memorized all the pills that the Cultivation Academy knew of until the 7th Tier. Included in that vast array of knowledge was the recipe, effects, and treatments for the Silver Blood Pill. The only recorded treatments Jam had heard of were for people that had already reached the Sage Realm. They were after all the demographic the Silver Blood Pill was originally intended for anyways…

Thus, to save Xie Ming, Jam had to get creative; he had to be daring and even a bit insane. Jam took out his Pill Cauldron an tried concocting a Tier 5 pill… He had already planned on trying this after thinking about the Soul boosting effects of his Divinity and Divinity Form, unfortunately there were very high stakes on the line.

Trying to concoct a Tier 5 Pill was the daring part, but the details of this concoction… They would make most accomplished higher Tier Alchemists shit themselves. Jam wasn't trying to concoct any Tier 5 Pill, he was actually planning on using Tier 6 ingredients as the main components and creating a new pill entirely…

This was something only Tier 8 and above Alchemists would dare try, as only those with established Daos in Alchemy would dare to create their own recipes. Not only was the chance of success unbearably low, the consequences of messing with ingredients in an undocumented, unregistered way… who knew what kind of catastrophe would befall those unlucky enough tobe caught off guard?

Xie Ming was no Alchemist, thus he thought nothing of the sweat appearing on Jam's face. The silent and careful mood present with the cave was just something all Alchemists needed when they worked, right? Wrong! Any slip up or wrong deduction and the mountain might explode, a corrosive mist might erupt and melt everything it touched… the list of horrifying consequences for failing while creating a new pill would make any up and coming Alchemist feel resigned.

Nevertheless, Jam began. He took a deep breath and emptied himself of all distracting thoughts. Xie Ming would die as soon as the Silver Blood Pills positive effects ran dry, so he couldn't dilly dally around at such a precarious time! Jam used Divinity to boost his soul with True Soul, as Purification Fire manifested in his hands through the use of Divinity Form from his eyes.

Jam lit his Pill Cauldron with the Purification Fire and let it warm up as he thought through endless combinations herbs. His mind raced, even faster than normal due to the effects of True Soul. The Canon of Suppression and Augmentation Dogma appearing every time a new iteration of the pill Jam had in mind was complete.

When Jam took his test to determine if he had any talent as an Artifact Refiner, he had learned about the principles of suppression and augmentation. But, those were just small bits and pieces from the complete Canon of Suppression and Augmentation Dogma. Only cultivators that had made it to the Sage Realm and could take the step above Tier 7 could put this Canon to use, developing their Daos with the profound truths found within.

But now, Jam was forced to apply the rules of the supreme Canon while he was still far from reaching Tier 7. It would be very dangerous for others to try what he was doing prematurely, but Jam was a special case. His cultivation, though far from Sagehood, was comparable in strenght; the same could be said for his soul, after being buffed by Divinity.
