“This is the Wu character Pill Refining Room, considered the most ordinary Pill Refining Room on the entire Dan Peak. It’s prepared for regular apprentices to improve their Alchemy skills.”
After the introduction, Jiang Dan and Ge Dan led Qin Xuan further down.
A moment later, the group stopped beside another tunnel below.
“This is the Ding character Pill Refining Room. This Pill Refining Room is prepared for One-Rank Alchemists, and the flame temperature here is higher than in the Wu character room.”
Qin Xuan nodded in understanding.
This was normal; the higher the grade of the Medicinal Pill being refined, the stronger the flame required.
Continuing downwards for a while, they finally reached the Yi character Pill Refining Room.
“This is the Pill Refining Room prepared for Four- and Five-Rank Alchemists. Young Master should be able to feel that the temperature here is much higher than before.”
Jiang Dan said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
It was too close to the Earth Vein Fire; even he, a Five-Rank Alchemist, was sweating profusely at this moment.
“Since this is the Yi character Pill Refining Room, then there should be a Jia character Pill Refining Room as well?”
Qin Xuan glanced at the passage beneath his feet, which was still extending downwards.
“Of course there is, but I can’t last too long down there, so no one goes down to refine pills.”
As Jiang Dan spoke, Qin Xuan’s heart stirred slightly.
Although the temperature here was scorching, it wasn't too difficult for him to endure.
After all, he had subdued a fire seed; these temperatures were nothing to him.
“Can the Earth Vein Fire be used directly in the Jia character Pill Refining Room?”
Qin Xuan asked, and hearing this, Ge Dan and Jiang Dan nodded.
“If Young Master is interested, you can go down and take a look, but you must be quick. We can’t last too long in the Jia character Pill Refining Room.”
Hearing this, Qin Xuan smiled and nodded.
“Of course, don’t worry, I’m just taking a look, and I won’t stay too long.”
The Earth Vein Fire was his main focus; he had to go down and confirm how strong this Earth Vein Fire truly was!
“Let’s go!”
Jiang Dan said, taking a deep breath, then led the way.
As the three followed the passage into the Jia character Pill Refining Room, Qin Xuan saw a Pill Refining Room on each side of the passage.
However, Qin Xuan quickly turned his attention to the front.
There, the entire mountain belly had been completely hollowed out, and looking down from here, large swathes of magma were constantly churning.
Above the magma, a cluster of blue flames burned continuously.
This is Spiritual Fire...
“This is the innermost layer of the Pill Refining Room. Any further down, all the stones would melt, so this Pill Refining Room was only built to this layer. This layer can accommodate Six-Rank and Seven-Rank Alchemists for Alchemy.”
Saying this, Jiang Dan shook his head with some regret.
The Azure Green Sect indeed once had Seven-Rank Alchemists, but now it didn't even have a Six-Rank Alchemist to oversee things, which could only be described as each generation being worse than the last.
Jiang Dan spoke while looking at Qin Xuan.
But Qin Xuan was just staring intently at the magma before him, completely motionless.
“Young Master Qin Xuan? Shall I take you to see the Pill Refining Room?”
Jiang Dan looked at Qin Xuan in surprise, and it took several repeated questions before Qin Xuan finally reacted.
“My apologies, Jiang Master, I was just staring at the magma and didn’t react for a moment.”
Qin Xuan quickly apologized, and hearing this, Jiang Dan smiled and shook his head.
“No problem, no problem. People who come here for the first time are often shocked by the sight, after all, the magma is right nearby, and it truly looks magnificent.”
Jiang Dan and Ge Dan said with smiles.
Hearing this, Qin Xuan nodded repeatedly, his peripheral vision glancing at the magma again.
He wasn't staring at the magma in a daze.
Just now, the Refining God Cauldron had been shaking continuously, reminding him.
Qin Xuan took a deep breath; he was almost certain that there was something beneath this magma!
Thinking this, Qin Xuan took a deep breath, forcing himself to avert his gaze.
This was his first time here, and he could indeed pretend to know nothing, but if he kept staring, the other party would inevitably become suspicious.
So, along the way, Qin Xuan forced himself not to look at the magma below, but instead turned to follow the two into the Pill Refining Room.
Opening the heavy stone door, Jiang Dan gestured for Qin Xuan to enter.
Qin Xuan nodded, pushed open the hot stone door, and walked in.
“xuan ice iron?”
Inside the Pill Refining Room, Qin Xuan looked at the iron plate beneath his feet with some surprise.
The surroundings of this Pill Refining Room were actually encased in xuan ice iron.
“Young Master has good eyesight. This is indeed xuan ice iron. As the saying goes, gold and water give birth to each other. This xuan ice iron contains extremely pure cold Qi. Only then can the temperature in this Pill Refining Room be suitable.”
Jiang Dan explained from the side, and hearing this, Qin Xuan nodded, then looked at the Medicine Cauldron beside him.
This Medicine Cauldron looked ancient in style, with carvings of insects, fish, birds, and beasts on it. It looked like a top-notch Medicine Cauldron in every way.
And below the Medicine Cauldron, Spiritual Fire had been drawn up.
Looking at this cluster of Spiritual Fire, the Spiritual Fire within Qin Xuan’s Dantian also stirred restlessly.
“Two Seniors, if I’m not mistaken, this is Spiritual Fire, right?”
Hearing this, Jiang Dan nodded.
“That’s right. This flame was brought here by the thirty-third Sect Master after he subdued it. That Sect Leader himself was a Seven-Rank Alchemist, and after subduing this Spiritual Fire, he cast it into this Earth Vein Fire.”
“With the blessing of the Earth Vein Fire, the power of this Spiritual Fire is even stronger. The Medicinal Pills we refine here are all of very good quality, but unfortunately…”
Jiang Dan said with a hint of regret.
“The regrettable thing is that the thirty-third Sect Master originally had great hope of becoming an Eight-Rank Pill Venerable, but one day he suddenly disappeared, and with him disappeared the sect’s supreme treasure for Alchemy, the Vermillion Bird Cauldron, and that precious Sheng Yuan Undying Pill Pill Formula!”
Sheng Yuan Undying Pill?
Qin Xuan was stunned; he had never heard of such a Pill Formula.
“This Medicine Cauldron was obtained by the First Ancestor after destroying a great Dao of Alchemy sect. The Vermillion Bird Cauldron ranks among the top hundred Medicine Cauldrons on the Eastern Region’s Myriad Cauldron List, and as for the Sheng Yuan Undying Pill, it is even more terrifying.”
“That’s an Eight-Rank Pill Formula! After a Sheng Yuan Realm Cultivator takes it, the probability of their cultivation advancing to the Death Yuan Realm can directly increase by two percent. Not only that, even if they fail, they can retain their previous Realm and not drop in Realm!”
Eight-Rank Pill Formula!
Hearing this, Qin Xuan was also shocked.
Although he had learned many Alchemy skills from the Empress, and she had given him many Pill Formulas.
However, none of these Pill Formulas exceeded Six-Rank.
Six-Rank Medicinal Pills could already be said to be incredibly precious, but this Azure Green Sect had lost an Eight-Rank Pill Formula.
This should be the Azure Green Sect’s best Pill Formula.
Thinking this, Qin Xuan felt a pang of pain.
“Alright, let’s not talk about these things. Let’s go up first. I’ll take you up and introduce you to those Senior Brothers as well.”
Saying this, Jiang Dan led Qin Xuan out of the Pill Refining Room.
Just as Qin Xuan walked out of the Pill Refining Room, the blue flames in the magma suddenly condensed into the shape of a Dragon, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws towards Qin Xuan!
Provoked by this, the fire seed in Qin Xuan’s Dantian spontaneously protected its master, and flames also emerged from Qin Xuan’s body, forming a seedling in mid-air, blocking in front of Qin Xuan.
Although it had not yet grown, the fire seed seedling already possessed the deterrent power of Spiritual Fire.
“Young Master’s Spiritual Fire is truly excellent!”
Ge Dan praised from the side.
Qin Xuan, however, stared warily at the Blue Spiritual Fire before him.
This flame actually suddenly wanted to devour his fire seed!
Just as the fire seed and the Blue Spiritual Fire confronted each other, a crimson light flashed before his eyes.
The crimson light shot straight into the sky, with faint Azure Dragons coiling around it.
It was the Crimson Flame Sky Severing Sword!
Qin Xuan’s heart surged, almost unable to restrain himself, and he nearly walked towards that direction.
