Celestial being

Feeling the obstacle, Yuan Ming was not anxious but overjoyed.

This shows that the restriction inside the Tiantian Cauldron is very likely to be here.

He knew that this would be a protracted battle, so he was not in a hurry. He just used the secret method to operate his magic power calmly, like the tide crashing on the shore, hitting the golden rune again and again.

As time passed bit by bit, Yuan Ming's progress was surprisingly slow.

Soon, a day and a night passed, but the golden rune pattern only faded to a very small part.

Yuan Ming frowned, and the thoughts in his mind suddenly came together, and his body transformed into the body of an immortal tree. The roots covered the entire white jade lotus platform, and the magic power around him penetrated into the runes on the lotus platform like a pervasive one.

Under the refining of huge mana, the golden runes on the White Jade Lotus Platform finally faded away bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When Yuan Ming saw this, he immediately became energetic. He immediately gathered all his thoughts and concentrated on the sacrifice.

…

After another four days, the last bit of golden light covering the golden lines covering the white jade lotus platform faded away, and it was finally completely refined.

Just when Yuan Ming excitedly wanted to see what had happened to the Heaven-Stealing Cauldron after the refining was completed, his spiritual thoughts seemed to have suddenly penetrated a barrier and fell into a larger virtual space.

Yuan Ming's spiritual thoughts were suspended in the void and he looked around. He saw crisscrossing golden chains everywhere in this space, layer upon layer, at least a thousand in number.

He approached one of the chains, and when he looked at it carefully, he realized that it was not a chain at all, but an extremely complex forbidden rune, which exuded extremely strong forbidden power.

"Could this be the internal restriction of the Heaven Stealing Cauldron?" Yuan Ming couldn't help but look around again, and said with shock.

At this time, he seemed to be surrounded by criss-crossing restrictions, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of despair in his heart.

"Tall buildings will rise from the ground, one by one." However, Yuan Ming quickly calmed down.

He calmed down, wrapped his mind around one of the restraining chains, and once again followed the sacrificial refining method taught to him by Master Shura, activated his mana to wrap the restraint, and began to refine it.

Seeing that the light on the forbidden rune faded little by little, Yuan Ming breathed a sigh of relief. At least there was no problem with the refining, so it was only a matter of time before the refining was completed.

…

Time flies, and five days have passed.

There was a flash of light in the guest room, and Yuan Ming's figure emerged.

He was holding the Heaven Stealing Cauldron in both hands, but there was a look of helplessness on his face.

The almost non-stop refining in the past few days has made him very tired, but the refining speed of the first restriction was extremely slow. It was not until today that it was finally loosened.

However, before Yuan Ming could be happy, he was disturbed by the magic circle he had arranged because someone came to see him.

"Tuk Tuk"

Hearing the knock on the door, Yuan Ming put away the Heaven-stealing Cauldron, stood up and tidied up the array, then took off the talisman attached to the door, and opened the door with a "squeak".

The person standing outside the door was none other than Xiying's second uncle, Xidongliu.

The moment he saw Yuan Ming, the impatience between his brows quickly disappeared, and he revealed an eager smile.

"It turns out to be Senior Xi. Sorry, I was practicing just now and the door opened a little late." Yuan Ming cupped his hands and said.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I was abrupt." Xi Dongliu said with a smile and waved his hands.

"I don't know, senior, I'm here, but what's the matter?" Yuan Ming asked as he welcomed him in.

"It's nothing serious. It's just that that girl Xi Ying went to the forbidden area as soon as she came back. I was afraid of neglecting you, fellow Taoist, so I came to take a look. I just got a pot of Biji Immortal Brew the day before yesterday. I wonder if you will appreciate it?" Xi Dongliu said He naturally came to the table and sat down, looked at Yuan Ming, and asked with a smile.

"Senior, it's the junior's honor." Yuan Ming said with a smile.

From the first time they met, he found that Xiying, his second uncle, didn't seem to have much affection for him, so when he saw his current behavior, he was a little confused for a while.

After Yuan Ming also sat down, Xi Dongliu flicked his palm, and a bronze wine pot with a somewhat primitive appearance appeared on the table.

When Yuan Ming saw the wine pot for the first time, his eyes couldn't help but flicker because there was a miniature talisman array engraved on the wine pot.

"What kind of drink needs to be carried by a talisman array?" Yuan Ming suddenly felt that the flow of wine this evening seemed to be coming from an evil person.

Seemingly sensing the confusion in Yuan Ming's eyes, Xi Dongliu explained:

"Don't get me wrong, fellow Daoist Yuan. These two extreme immortal brews are top-quality nectar brewed from the extremely cold spiritual marrow and the true liquid of fire essence. Because the two elements of ice and fire maintain a delicate balance, they are extremely susceptible to external influences. , loss of spiritual power, the magic circle on this wine pot is to maintain the spiritual power of the fresh wine from being lost."

Yuan Ming is familiar with the names of Extreme Cold Spiritual Essence and Fire Essence True Liquid. The former is a top-quality ice-attributed spiritual material that can only be produced from one million-year-old cold crystal, while the latter is a fire comparable to the true fire of the sun. Attribute spiritual material.

It is really not easy to combine these two top-quality things with mutually incompatible attributes into a magical wine.

"I'm afraid such extremely cold and extremely hot things are not something ordinary people can enjoy, right?" Yuan Ming already had a vague idea of ​​what Xi Dongliu was going to do, but he still said calmly.

"Haha, that's right. This kind of spiritual wine cannot be enjoyed by monks who are not Yuanying or above. If a monk below Yuanying takes a sip by mistake, he will be eroded by the power of extreme cold and heat. At least, his cultivation will be ruined, and at worst, his body will be damaged. The path of death disappears..."

Halfway through Xi Dong's rumbling words, he suddenly looked sideways at Yuan Ming and asked with pretense of confusion: "Fellow Daoist Yuan, are you not yet at the Nascent Soul stage?"

Yuan Ming always kept a low profile and was used to concealing his aura. Even when he arrived at this villa, the aura he showed was only in the middle stage of pill formation.

Xi Dongliu naturally didn't believe this.

In his opinion, being able to come here with his niece, who has been quirky since she was a child and avoids strangers, must be someone he trusts very much and even has a close relationship with. And how could such a person be just a mere person? Middle stage of elixir formation?

"Is it true that I won't be able to taste this pot of immortal brew before I reach the Nascent Soul stage?" Yuan Ming asked rhetorically.

"If you are not in the Nascent Soul stage, I advise fellow Taoists to retreat despite the difficulties." Hearing this, Xi Dongliu curled his lips and said as if he meant something.

"If senior said that, I'm really interested. I want to taste it." Yuan Ming seemed to not understand the hidden meaning of his words, but said with great interest.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, do you really want to give it a try?" Hearing this, Xi Dongliu frowned unconsciously.

Yuan Ming had already waved his hand and placed two sapphire porcelain cups on the table.

Seeing this, Xi Dongliu stopped persuading him and smiled. Then he picked up the jug and poured a glass of wine into each of the two porcelain cups.

"Then I'll ask fellow Taoist Yuan to taste it." After saying that, he picked up a wine glass first.

Yuan Ming was not polite. He picked up the wine glass and knocked it gently with him before bringing it to his mouth.

A strong aroma immediately rushed into his nose. Yuan Ming praised "good wine" and immediately poured it into his mouth.

When Xi Dongliu saw this, he suddenly looked panicked.

Even he only dared to sip these two extremely immortal brews in small sips, and only dared to take a sip after the power of the sip was digested. Taking a sip like Yuan Ming's was just like seeking death.

He wanted to test Yuan Ming's cultivation through these two extreme immortal brews, but he didn't want to kill him.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan..."

But before his words of dissuasion came out, Yuan Ming's Adam's apple twitched and he swallowed the drink.

"Oops..." Xi Dongliu's heart sank.

However, after waiting for a moment, the scene of the cold and scorching power that he expected to twist Yuan Ming's intestines to pieces did not appear.

"Good wine." Yuan Ming suddenly praised it.

Xi Dongliu was puzzled, so he picked up the wine glass with some suspicion and took a sip.

The next moment, a cold current and a hot current seemed to split his throat and esophagus in two, flowing through at the same time and converging into his stomach.

The two forces intertwined with each other, and the rich spiritual energy entered the Dantian after being transported and transformed.

Immediately afterwards, his body couldn't help but tremble, and he shuddered. Immediately, another wave of heat rose from his dantian, making his back faintly sweat, and his face changed back and forth between blue and white and red.

It took a while to return to normal.

On the other hand, Yuan Ming's face remained the same as usual, and his expression did not change at all.

Seeing that there was no movement in Xi Dongliu for a long time, Yuan Ming picked up the wine bottle and poured himself another glass.

"Senior, let me toast you." Yuan Ming took the initiative to raise the glass, then raised his head and drank it.

When he just drank the first cup, he felt that these two extremely immortal brews were indeed no ordinary spiritual wines. The spiritual power contained in them was very pure and very domineering. If it weren't for his strong physique and the power of the Immortal Tree in his body, It is also something that cannot be easily tolerated.

Just that one cup had almost replenished all the mana he had consumed in order to sacrifice and refine the Heaven Stealing Cauldron.

However, now that he knew it was a good thing, Yuan Ming would not let it go.

After he drank this glass, he immediately poured another glass, and then another glass.

Xi Dongliu was still immersed in shock at first, but he soon realized that something was wrong. After Yuan Ming drank a few drinks, not only did he not feel any strange, but he seemed to be drunk.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, these two immortal brews are too overbearing and should not be..." Xi Dongliu quickly advised.

"It's okay, it's okay, come on, let's have another drink..." Yuan Ming's cheeks were red, and he pulled Xi Dongliu to toast, obviously drunk.

Xi Dongliu felt sorry for the fresh wine, so he quickly grabbed the wine bottle and was about to say goodbye and leave.

As a result, he found that the wine bottle was already empty when he took it lightly. He felt as if he had swallowed a fly alive, and he felt unspeakable.

After he left angrily, Yuan Ming closed the door and couldn't help but burp.

Immediately, his red face quickly returned to normal. He was still half drunk, but he was still puzzled. Why did Xi Dongliu come to test his cultivation?
