The Legend of the Immortal Cauldron

"Is there no alchemist here?" Matthew asked with doubt in his heart.

"No one here is good at alchemy, even the clan leader can't do it." A man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks said.

"It's not that we are not good at it, but we can't make pills at all." Another person said.

"Yes, our blood is naturally unable to complete alchemy, refining and other things."

The answers of these people were surprisingly consistent. Either they had been unified long ago, or it was really as they said.

"Then what do you rely on to improve your cultivation besides meditation and cultivation?" Matthew continued to ask.

Since he was left here, he also wanted to learn about this place.

"Take spiritual medicine. There are countless spiritual medicines in the Ancient Source Mountains. You can pick them as long as you are lucky." The man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks said earlier.

"Medicine is three-point poison. Wouldn't it cause discomfort to your body if you often swallow spiritual medicine?" Matthew frowned and asked.

"Yes, we understand what you said, but we can't make pills, so we can only swallow the elixir raw." Lang Hao, who had finished cleaning the alchemy room, said after coming out.

As soon as this person spoke, the others immediately shut up. It seems that Lang Hao has a high status in the hearts of these people.

"Since we can't make pills, why build an alchemy room?" Matthew poured out a few fasting pills and handed them to Lang Hao and asked.

Lang Hao had heard the situation outside clearly inside. Seeing Matthew took the initiative to hand him the fasting pills, he finally smiled. After taking the fasting pills, he said softly: "This alchemy room has been built for hundreds of years. I don't know the details. Only the clan leader knows this."

After he finished speaking, he turned his eyes to the others and said again: "Master Ma has come from afar and will stay in the village for a long time. Don't gather here. Be busy with your own things. Come to Master Ma if you need to make pills."

Matthew wanted to ask some other questions, but since Lang Hao had finished speaking, he could only give up.

After dispersing everyone, Lang Hao let Matthew enter the alchemy room and left.

"Boy, did you notice that the auras of these guys just now were a bit strange." After Matthew entered the alchemy room, Wu Kun's voice also rang out.

"I didn't sense the aura, but those looks were already very strange." After finding a bench to sit down, Matthew said unhappily.

He was also very depressed. He had finally lived a carefree life for a few years, and then he was brought to this place full of monsters, and he had to refine pills for these monsters. Don't mention how uncomfortable he felt.

"I have heard of a secret technique that can integrate humans and monsters into one, so as to achieve a symbiotic effect. However, I have only heard of it but never seen it. I didn't expect that there would be such a secret technique in the human world." Wu Kun ignored Matthew's depressed muttering.

"Why do you have to make yourself look like a human being instead of a human being?" Matthew pouted and said.

"What do you know? The bodies and life spans of monsters are not comparable to those of humans. Even if a first-level monster lives for more than a thousand years, it is not difficult. Can a Qi-refining cultivator do it? Moreover, monsters also have innate magical powers. After fusion, they can possess the secret technique." Wu Kun showed strong disdain for Matthew's words.

After Wu Kun said this, Matthew opened his mouth, but could not say anything to refute.

"What's the use of saying this? I can only stay in this small alchemy room now." Matthew curled his lips and said.

"You can be alive, which means you are still useful. You can stay here and see if you can get the secret technique of fusing monsters. I am very curious about it now." Wu Kun comforted Matthew for the first time.

Hearing this, Matthew's cheek twitched.

"So, you have been paying attention to the secret technique for a long time, so you let me follow you here." Matthew said angrily.

"Do you think you can escape with your ability?" Wu Kun asked back.

Now, Matthew was completely speechless.

He knew very well that what Wu Kun said was right, and he could only blame himself for his low cultivation level.

After spending some time to calm down his annoyance, Matthew took out the flag of the psychedelic array and placed it in the corner of the alchemy room.

Although he didn't know whether the psychedelic array could withstand the consciousness of the Yuanying cultivator, he must do the necessary protection.

Not long after the magic array was activated, someone knocked on the door of the alchemy room.

Opening the door, Matthew saw the man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks standing outside.

"What's the matter?" Matthew asked.

"Master Ma, my name is Hou Qi. My son has been found to have the qualifications for cultivation, and I would like to ask you to refine a furnace of elixirs to strengthen the foundation and nourish the essence." The man rubbed his hands and smiled.

"What is your son's current cultivation level?" Matthew asked.

Since he has stayed here, he has to show some of his own role.

"Here is a recipe for the Peiyuan Pill that the clan leader gave me. See if you can make it. I have prepared the spiritual medicine." Hou Qi took out a piece of animal skin paper and handed it to Matthew.

After taking the animal skin paper and turning it over, Matthew read it carefully.

He had never made the Peiyuan Pill, but the description on the recipe did not seem difficult.

"Give me the spiritual medicine, I'll try it first." Matthew said softly after reading the recipe.

Hou Qi's face showed joy when he heard this, and he took off the bag on his shoulder.

"There are ten materials for Peiyuan Pills here. Master Ma only needs to give me five pills. The extra spiritual medicine will be my reward." Hou Qi said with a smile after handing the bundle to Matthew.

"Just wait outside. No one can disturb me when I am refining the pills. Just help me." Matthew took the bundle and closed the wooden door after leaving a word.

Back in the alchemy room, Matthew activated the Earth Lung Fire.

"It seems that the old guy is worried about you and specially sent this guy to test your alchemy skills." Wu Kun teased while Matthew was sorting out the spiritual medicine.

"It's normal. I would do the same if I were in your place. I'm going to start refining the pills. Let me say this first." Matthew responded and cut off the connection with Wu Kun.

After sorting out the spiritual medicines, Matthew did not rush to refine the pills, but read the pill formula several times, and then took out a piece of white paper and a brush to copy down the pill formula.

He had seen the Peiyuan Pill in a book of elixirs. It was a rare elixir for strengthening the body and nourishing the essence. However, the recipe of Peiyuan Pill was very rare and few people knew it.

Matthew didn't know where the old man got the recipe of Peiyuan Pill from. As an alchemist, he had little resistance to rare pills, and so did Matthew.

Putting aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, Matthew took out the alchemy furnace, heated it, and began to put spiritual medicine into it.

This first furnace of Peiyuan Pill failed as expected.

After taking out the waste pill, he threw it into the purple cauldron for purification.

Since the old man wanted to see his alchemy skills, Matthew would show him a good performance.
