The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

"It's been more than a month, why hasn't Bao Ya's soul-melting ceremony ended yet?" After finishing what he was doing, Matthew tried to open his mouth, but found that the restriction still existed.

After resting for a while in the alchemy room, Matthew planned to continue practicing.

At this time, there was an extremely slight noise at the door.

When Matthew turned his head to look, the Nascent Soul old man appeared here unexpectedly.

While he was shocked, Matthew had already contacted Wu Kun.

The other party's intention of coming here was unclear, and Matthew was also a little nervous.

"I've met senior." After a slight adjustment, Matthew bowed and saluted.

"No need, I came here to see you for something." There was a hint of sadness on the old man's face, and he had no intention of chatting with Matthew.

"Senior just give orders, and juniors within their ability will do their best." Matthew bowed slightly and said.

"I don't need to say more about the soul-melting ceremony. Now there are some situations on Bao Ya's side that need your help." The old man said quickly.

Only then did Matthew finally realize that something was wrong with the spirit-melting ceremony.

"What do you need juniors to do?"

Although he said this, in fact, what Matthew wanted to ask most was, what ability did he have to solve the problem that even you Nascent Soul cultivators can't solve.

But he would never say these words.

"The situation is a bit complicated, and there is no point in explaining it to you. I want your help in refining a batch of elixirs." The old man was quite satisfied with Matthew's attitude.

Seeing that Matthew was listening attentively, the old man continued: "The elixir I want you to refine is called the Qingshen Transformation Pill. This elixir is extremely important to Bao Ya. I hope you can do your best to help."

"Please show me the prescription." Matthew frowned and said.

This is the first time I heard about the Qingshen Transformation Pill.

Matthew felt a lot of pressure.

After receiving the prescription from the old man, Matthew immediately looked at it together.

This look is like a stick of incense.

The old man was not impatient at all and stood silently looking at Matthew.

"Senior, everything else is easy to say, but what is this fire crystal?" Matthew asked doubtfully.

The refining method of this spirit-clearing elixir is somewhat special. It cannot be refined with normal flames. It can only be refined by using something called fire essence stone, which uses the property of emitting heat waves.

But Fire Stone Matthew had never heard of it.

"This is it." The old man took out a fiery red stone from his storage bag and said.

As soon as the stone was taken out, the temperature in the alchemy room instantly increased.

Matthew curiously stared at the stone in the old man's hand for a while and then said, "This is the first time I have encountered this kind of elixir. The rate of elixir success will definitely be very low."

"It doesn't matter. If you can't refine the spirit-clearing elixir, I have other ways, which are just a little more troublesome." The old man waved his hand and said.

Since the other party said so, he had to try this spirit-clearing pill.

"Okay, since the senior said so, the junior will give it a try." Matthew nodded.

"I won't let your help go in vain. If it succeeds, you can choose three items from the treasure house. If it fails, it's okay. I won't blame you." The old man nodded with satisfaction.

After the old man finished speaking, he left the materials needed to refine the Qingshen Transformation Pill and left directly.

"This little old man is right outside the door, and he has left a spiritual consciousness inside. You must not be careless." Wu Kun knew the reason why Matthew asked him to see these things, so he took the initiative to say it after the old man left.

"I understand." This situation did not exceed his expectations.

After finding a place to sit down, Matthew took out some paper and a brush and started writing on it.

He was not trying to copy down the prescriptions, but to use this method to deduce the combination and order of each elixir.

Although the combination and order of the elixir were written on the prescription, he had to confirm it again before he could rest assured.

It took three days to sit down, and Matthew had already written dozens of pieces of paper in front of him.

After completing the deduction and confirming that the prescription was correct, Matthew burned all the papers.

This was deliberately made for the old man to see. According to his habit, all these papers should be kept.

The next step is to become familiar with how to use the fire stone.

The old man had already taught him before leaving, and it was not very complicated.

It only took half a day for Matthew to become completely familiar with it.

A simple stove was built in the corner. After placing the fire stone inside, Matthew took out the yellow smoke stove and placed it on the stove.

Although this is the first time I have come into contact with the Qingshen Transformation Pill, the refining of this pill is not very complicated, and it is even not as good as the Dingji Pill.

It only took two days for Matthew to successfully refine a spirit-clearing elixir.

Moreover, it is still a middle-grade elixir.

The old man who was standing outside and had been observing the situation in the alchemy room with his spiritual consciousness showed a look of surprise and joy on his face when he saw that Matthew had actually refined a middle-grade elixir.

Before Matthew could put away the elixir, the old man entered the alchemy room again.

"You have fulfilled your mission and exceeded your quota. This is a middle-grade elixir." Matthew said softly after coming to the old man holding the elixir in both hands.

The proudest thing about being an alchemy room is that it has refined a pot of elixirs that exceeded original expectations.

"Okay, okay, okay." After taking the elixir, the old man said three good words in a row.

"This time you have done me a great favor. I am not a stingy person. The conditions I promised you remain unchanged. In addition, you can enter the largest treasure house to choose an item!" After putting away the elixir, the old man laughed loudly. .

"Thank you, senior." Matthew heard this and hurriedly bowed to express his thanks.

When he got up, the old man had disappeared.

After more than a year of understanding, Matthew also roughly knew something about the stockade.

For example, there are two types of treasure house. One is treasure house No. [-], which he has been to once before. It is a small treasure house, and Bao Ya can enter it at will.

There are five small treasure troves like that.

But there is only one big treasure house that the old man just mentioned, and it can only be entered by the old man who is the leader of the clan.

Matthew knew these things accidentally from Xiong Ba's mouth.

Xiong Ba also said at that time that he had lived in the village for so many years and did not know where the big treasure house was or what treasures it contained.

Therefore, after hearing that the old man was willing to let him enter the treasure house, Matthew was particularly excited.

After the old man left, Matthew checked with Wu Kun. After learning that the old man's consciousness had disappeared, he was completely relieved.

Now that he knew what was going on with Bao Ya, the ban should continue for some time. After resting for a while, Matthew began to swallow pills and practice.
