The Ascending Dragon Elixir was also part of the process to cultivate the 'Blackwater Dragon Spirit Weapon.'
After all, how could cultivating a Third Rank Dao Soldier be simple?
The first step was to select the Dao Soldier seeds through the 'Blackwater Dragon Spell.'
Afterwards, the seeds had to be constantly nurtured with various elixirs and techniques such as 'Spirit Nurturing Elixir,' 'Wisdom-Opening Elixir,' 'Ascending Dragon Elixir,' 'Spiritual Light Method,' 'Blackwater Method,' and 'Nine Transformations Method,' a total of nine pills and twelve methods were used, before one could finally be promoted to a 'Blackwater Dragon Spirit Weapon.'
This process was somewhat similar to cultivating Spiritual Beasts.
But compared to Beast Taming, this cultivation of Dao Soldiers was obviously more profound.
This was also why small family forces had no Dao Soldiers.
