Siheyuan: Me! He Yuzhu defies fate and changes destiny

Manager Gu also added: "I have also released the news, but no one has replied!" After hearing what Manager Gu and He Daqing said, Tian Zehua said: "I have also heard that there is an ancient alchemy furnace in Qingfeng Temple in the suburbs, but this is just a rumor. Whether it is true or not has not been verified. After all, almost no one in this world knows how to make alchemy. However, this news may be helpful to you." This aroused Yang Zhili's curiosity, and he asked He Yuzhu why he needed an alchemy furnace. So He Yuzhu explained: "Xiao Di and Yu Shui have been practicing Chinese martial arts, and they have encountered bottlenecks recently. I collected some medicinal materials outside and plan to make some pills to help them break through the current obstacles."

In response, Yang Zhili showed a puzzled look: "How do you know how to make elixirs?" He Yuzhu smiled modestly: "I only know the basics. There are indeed some inheritances in this area in medical skills, and I want to give it a try." After hearing this answer, Yang Zhili continued: "I have heard that someone has a similar artifact in his hand, but no one can answer whether it can be used. Some say it is an alchemy furnace, and some say it is just an incense burner. The specific situation is unclear. If you are interested, I can help you ask the other party if he is willing to sell it." He Yuzhu responded gratefully to this proposal: "Thank you so much, Dad! Please help me contact that person when the time comes." Then he asked Tian Zehua: "Master, do you know the specific location of Qingfeng Temple? If possible, I plan to go there tomorrow to take a look."

Tian Zehua nodded gently: "Of course I know, it's right here..." After listening to the master's description, He Yuzhu also nodded, "It's not far, we should be able to get there soon. Let's drive over there tomorrow to check it out." Everyone discussed this for a while, and then talked about other things. As time passed, dinner was gradually digested, and the night was getting darker, so everyone got up and said goodbye and returned home.

After all the guests had left, He Yuzhu checked the house again, and after making sure everything was in good condition, everyone went to rest.

The next morning, as the warm sun shone, He Yuzhu woke up from a sweet dream and began to prepare breakfast for everyone. After everyone enjoyed the delicious food and completed their daily training tasks, everyone devoted themselves to a busy day.

After sending his three children to school, He Yuzhu drove to Qingfeng Temple. After about an hour and a half of driving, he finally arrived at his destination. Since the last section of the road was no longer accessible to vehicles, He Yuzhu chose to park the car at the foot of the mountain and walk up the mountain.

With no roads to choose from, He Yuzhu walked alone along the mountain road, getting closer and closer to his goal.

But observing this place, He Yuzhu felt that no one had been here for a long time, and there was no sign of pedestrians on the road. Despite this, He Yuzhu still decided to explore it.

Climbing to the top of the mountain, he found a long-abandoned Taoist temple with a locked door. He Yuzhu walked up and knocked on the door gently. After waiting for a while and seeing no response, he continued to knock.

About ten minutes later, when he was about to force his way in to find out what was going on, the tightly closed door slowly opened with a low sound.

An old man bowed to He Yuzhu and asked, "Who are you looking for? This temple is not open to ordinary visitors. If you want to pray, please go to other places." He Yuzhu replied politely, "Hello, Taoist priest, I am here to ask for something."

The old man showed a curious look and asked, "What do you want?"

He felt extremely surprised - as a Taoist priest, he had been isolated from the outside world for many years, and it was really hard to imagine who would go to this desolate mountain.

"Master, although your body is old, you must have been a martial arts master in the past," He Yuzhu looked at the old man in front of him, "I heard that there is an alchemy furnace here, I wonder if I can borrow it?" Facing He Yuzhu's request, the Taoist said as if he was looking at a monster:

"You may not understand the situation. Although I am a Taoist priest, the so-called longevity through alchemy is all empty talk. Even in the heyday of the past, no one could really make an elixir to prolong life. You don't need to pin your hopes on it."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "I'm not trying to achieve immortality. I want to refine some elixirs that can help martial artists recover their strength and vitality. My family members practice Chinese martial arts, but their progress is slow. I have recently collected many precious medicinal materials, and I hope to blend their essence into elixirs for my family members to take, so as to speed up their practice."

Hearing this, the Taoist was stunned for a moment and introduced himself: "My name is Qingfeng. I don't think you are an ordinary practitioner." He Yuzhu stood up with a smile, demonstrated his light Kung Fu skills, and moved flexibly in the air before landing steadily in front of Qingfeng.

Then he asked, "So, what level of cultivation do you think I am?" Qingfeng was stunned. "May I ask, what level of cultivation are you at?"

"Perhaps it is the state of 'immortality'." He Yuzhu replied indifferently.

Qingfeng was even more confused: "What is the 'immortal' realm? Doesn't Chinese martial arts include only the four levels of whole strength, bright strength, dark strength, and transformed strength?" He Yuzhu was also a little surprised: "Master Qingfeng, don't you know that there is also a Baodan stage? The legendary spear king Li Shuwen has already reached this realm!"

"Li Shuwen? I have heard of him, but how is that possible..." Qingfeng muttered to himself. "My master Li Cunren has reached the pinnacle of Huajin, and Li Shuwen is my master's younger brother, so his level must be correct." He Yuzhu explained.

"Your master is actually Crazy Knife Li Cunren!" Qingfeng exclaimed. He Yuzhu nodded in affirmation and added: "My master said that there are nine levels of Chinese martial arts: whole strength, bright strength, dark strength, transformation strength, holding the elixir, Gang strength, golden body, indestructible, and indestructible. And I am currently in the category of indestructible."

Faced with such shocking information, Qingfeng was speechless for a long while, and finally said: "Please come in and sit down, let us discuss it in detail."

He then invited He Yuzhu into the house for a deeper conversation.

After hearing what Taoist Qingfeng said, He Yuzhu entered Qingfeng Temple. Taoist Qingfeng said, "I'm sorry, there's only well water here, and I live alone, so I don't have any tea to serve." He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm not thirsty, I'm just a little curious..." Then Taoist Qingfeng interrupted him and said, "Let's talk about the alchemy furnace later. I have a question. What state can you reach after holding the elixir?"

He Yuzhu patiently explained: "The so-called golden elixir is actually to gradually condense one's own qi and blood into a small dot. With continuous practice, this condensed golden elixir will be constantly filled. When the golden elixir is complete, it will be able to combine with the power of heaven and earth and transform into Gangqi. And this Gangqi, once it radiates from the body, will evolve into powerful Gangjin!"
