#121 - Chapter 120 Yin-Yang Creation Furnace

The giant ape looked at him and suddenly grinned, seemingly very happy that he had accepted the inner core. It squeaked a few times to the other golden-backed giant apes, then waved its large hands, driving them away. The eleven large apes, carrying their companions and the weasel king's corpse, quickly disappeared among the giant trees.

The giant ape stretched out its long arm and pointed to the cliff on the other side of the giant tree, indicating that Zhang Yuanjing should go there. Zhang Yuanjing nodded, put the jade box containing the inner core into his storage bag, and then walked towards the giant forest. The giant ape called out, making him turn his head, then shook its head at him, and then rose into the air, floating several feet above the ground.

Zhang Yuanjing sighed inwardly and reluctantly flew into the air on his sword. The giant ape made a gesture of invitation, then accelerated past Zhang Yuanjing, leading the way. Zhang Yuanjing didn't dare to play any tricks and honestly followed behind it.

After traveling two or three miles, the cliff wall was close at hand. At this time, Zhang Yuanjing saw a dark hole on the cliff face, below a protruding boulder, about two zhang in size. The giant ape's direction was precisely towards this dark cave.

He focused his divine sense and carefully probed, discovering that this cave, like the deep cave he had hidden in when the weasel king was chasing him, was also carved out of the stone wall, and he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

The giant ape took the lead in flying into the cave, and Zhang Yuanjing followed behind. The cave was pitch black, and looking at the terrain, it was sloping downwards, presumably going into the belly of the mountain. He just didn't know if it would enter the soil layer below.

The giant ape pulled open a rock on one side of the cave wall and took out a cyan bead the size of an egg. As soon as this bead appeared, it illuminated the cave with a hazy light, making it possible to see that the path underfoot was very clean. Not only was it cleaned regularly, but few monsters entered.

The giant ape held up the cyan bead, leading the way, striding forward, with a very happy expression.

This cave road was very simple, just a sloping path, constantly advancing towards the belly of the mountain. However, this cave was extremely deep. According to Zhang Yuanjing's estimation, the vertical height of the descent was more than thirty zhang, and it was still not the end.

At this time, Zhang Yuanjing had given up the idea of using earth遁术 to escape, because with his cultivation, he could only survive in the soil at a depth of twenty-five zhang at most. Now, even if the surrounding rock walls were replaced by soil, he could only sigh and be powerless.

Thus, they traveled for another thirty zhang before arriving at an open cave. Although this place was in the belly of the mountain, the ventilation was very good, the clear air flowed, and it didn't feel stuffy at all. The cave was more than ten zhang in diameter and more than five zhang high, and it looked like a natural stone cave.

The cave was not empty, but in the center was placed a strangely shaped cauldron. This cauldron was about three feet high, black all over, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, square at the bottom, supported by four legs, like a square cauldron, but the top was round, like a stove, with a blue long ear on the left and a red round ring on the right, and its body was engraved with a mysterious rune.

This cauldron was old, but spotless, and under the illumination of the cyan bead, its surface flowed with interlaced blue and red light.

The giant ape walked to the front of the cauldron, its tall body suddenly knelt down, prostrated on the ground towards the cauldron, kowtowed three times, and then stood up respectfully, giving Zhang Yuanjing a wink.

"A pill furnace?" Zhang Yuanjing pointed to the cauldron and asked, then pointed to himself again and asked, "Refining pills?"

The giant ape nodded, then shook its head. It walked to the front of the cauldron, stretched out its arms, held a blue long ear in one palm and a red round ring in the other, then turned back and squeaked at Zhang Yuanjing.

"Grasp both sides like you?" Zhang Yuanjing licked his dry lips and asked nervously. He noticed that the giant ape was only pretending to grasp, and didn't dare to touch the cauldron at all. He speculated in his heart: Could it be some kind of strange object that absorbs the essence and blood or mana of cultivators?

Judging from the giant ape's expression, it was obviously doing these things with reverence and joy, without any malice. However, it was also possible that the giant ape was bewitched by this demon cauldron, making it think that it was doing a good thing that was beneficial to both people and itself.

"Ah, ah, ah!" Seeing Zhang Yuanjing standing still, the giant ape became a little anxious and even let out a human-like cry.

Zhang Yuanjing laughed dryly and slowly moved over. Now that he had reached this point, there was no way for him to go back on his word. Moreover, if this cauldron was really transformed from a demonic object that could easily control a demon core stage giant ape, then its strength would definitely be astonishing, and he was afraid that he would have no chance to leave this cave.

He stared at the blue long ear and the red round ring for two breaths, and scanned the cauldron up and down several times, and did not find any signs of spiritual power fluctuations.

Then he stretched out his hands and slowly approached the long ear and the round ring, but he couldn't help but tremble all over. At this time, he suddenly remembered the magical treasure, Thick Earth Transformation Cauldron, which was hidden in his arms, lying still. He tried to communicate with it with his divine sense, but as soon as he touched it, he was bounced away by an invisible force.

He had no choice but to pray silently in his heart, if there was danger, please wake up quickly, Mr. Transformation Cauldron. So, he closed his eyes and reached out to grasp the two objects at the same time. At the moment his hands touched the long ear and the round ring, a white light flashed out from the runes on both sides of the cauldron at the same time, and was imported into his body from the long ear and the round ring, and then a burst of white smoke exploded, and his whole person disappeared.

The giant ape was taken aback by this scene, and then knelt down and prostrated on the ground. After waiting for a while, seeing that the cauldron was silent, it stood up, scratched the dark green long hair on its head, and waited on the side more respectfully.

When Zhang Yuanjing opened his eyes again, he was in a magnificent square stone chamber. This place was very spacious, about ten zhang in diameter, with a dazzling glazed lamp hanging overhead, and dozens of glittering dragon-eye-sized pearls inlaid on the four walls.

In the center of the stone chamber, there was a cauldron, exactly the same as the cauldron he had seen in the cave, but the color was brighter, like a newly built object. On the north side of the cauldron,贴着the stone chamber wall, on one side was a grid of medicine cabinets. At first glance, there were dozens, at second glance, there were hundreds, and at third glance, there seemed to be thousands. Zhang Yuanjing only felt dizzy and didn't dare to look again, and quickly withdrew his gaze.

On the other side, there was a bookcase, but there were no books, but jade slips were placed on it, and the number was also constantly changing, and it was impossible to count how many.

He turned around, but saw four skeletons leaning against the wall, and subconsciously took two steps back.

His face was uncertain, and he immediately thought that the speculation about the giant ape leading people to the cauldron was mostly correct. This stone chamber was probably the internal space of the cauldron. This thing was at least a magical treasure!

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, seeing that there was no movement in the room, Zhang Yuanjing walked to the leftmost skeleton. There was a jade slip next to its hand bones and a storage bag under its ribs, and it didn't look like a high-level cultivator.

He first grabbed the jade slip and looked into it with his divine sense. It turned out to be a Qi refining cultivator named Zhao Xuanrao, who also accidentally entered this valley and was brought into the cave by a demon core realm golden-backed giant ape and sucked into the cauldron.

According to the information obtained from it, this cauldron is called the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace, which is an ancient treasure handed down from ancient times and is of extremely high quality. However, this person was only a Qi refining cultivator after all, and he didn't have much knowledge, so he couldn't say exactly what level of treasure it was. Any cultivator who is sucked into the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace must refine a kind of elixir according to its requirements before they can leave. However, only one copy of the medicinal materials for refining the elixir is given. If it fails, they can only be trapped here to death.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuanjing's mind went blank: he actually had to refine pills, and he had to succeed once! Not to mention him, who had never refined pills, even if he found a pill refining master, he would not dare to say that he could successfully refine a new pill in one go.

After a long time, he shook his head with a miserable expression, threw down the jade slip, and walked to the second skeleton. This person was a foundation building realm cultivator and also left a narrative jade slip, but it was all about his life experience, especially the abusive love affair with a woman, which was of no value to Zhang Yuanjing.

He grabbed this person's storage bag, opened it, and found some materials with completely lost spirituality, two low-grade spiritual weapons with dim light, and some messy and useless things, and immediately threw them aside.

The third skeleton had neither jade slips nor storage bags, and should have been picked up by someone. This person could only be the owner of the fourth skeleton.

He moved over and saw a storage bag and a storage bracelet next to this person, but no jade slips or anything like that. He first opened the storage bag, which contained some clothes, dry food, and other sundries. He opened the storage bracelet and found a lot of good things.

There were two jade slips among them. One jade slip was left by a golden core realm cultivator named Qin Wutong, and this storage bracelet should also be his item.

In the jade slip, this person talked about how he was seriously injured in a fierce battle with other golden core cultivators and accidentally escaped into the valley. When he saw the golden elephant fruit trees, he was immediately startled and knew that there must be a great demon here, but before he had time to escape, he was stopped by a demon core realm golden-backed giant ape.

Although he also had the strength of the early stage of the golden core realm, he had always focused on refining pills and was not good at fighting. Moreover, facing the extremely powerful golden-backed giant ape, he had no chance of winning at all. He had no choice but to follow it into the cave, and when he saw the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace, he was immediately ecstatic.

According to what he knew, this Yin-Yang Creation Furnace was a creation artifact from ancient times, and its grade was far above that of a magical treasure. It was a treasure that could refine immortal pills and divine medicines. It had been contested by many immortal cultivators and great powers, and had caused several bloody storms, leading to the fall of many high-level cultivators. Of course, he couldn't judge whether the current furnace was a real Yin-Yang Creation Furnace or a replica.

After entering the cauldron, this person, like the other three, was required to refine a kind of elixir called the Benefit Spirit Pill. Although his pill refining level was high, due to the special nature of the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace, the pill refining method was very different from the current one, so there were also errors in operation, leading to failure.

He especially reminded that the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace must have a balance of yin and yang attributes of mana in order to operate correctly. Otherwise, no matter how superb your pill refining skills are, it will be difficult to succeed in one attempt. In this jade slip, he deduced the method of controlling the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace and wrote detailed notes.

The other jade slip was left by the owner of the third skeleton. This person was a foundation building realm cultivator and was not good at refining pills, but he had extremely high comprehension. When operating the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace, he noticed the key points and recorded his experience and reflections in the jade slip. The conclusion was basically the same as what Qin Wutong said. Or rather, Qin Wutong used his own practice to verify some of this person's speculations.

Qin Wutong entered the Yin-Yang Creation Furnace about a thousand years ago. The two low-grade magic weapons and one top-grade spiritual weapon, two high-grade spiritual weapons, and two bottles of pills for treating internal and external injuries in the storage bracelet were still full of spirituality.

In addition, there were mostly pill formulas, from various low-grade pill formulas for the Qi refining realm to pill formulas for the golden core stage, totaling fifteen copies. Zhang Yuanjing had already obtained the Spirit Gathering Powder, Bitter Yuan Pill, and Beast King Pill used by foundation building realm cultivators from Guo Yuqing.

However, a pill formula for the golden core realm called the Harmony Yuan Pill was very good. This pill formula is a very precious item in large sects. At the beginning, Zhang Yuanjing cultivated the remnant roots of the spiritual medicine for Su Yuanxiao, and one of the main medicines was an orchid.

There was also a bronze pill furnace, which was used by Qin Wutong to refine pills, and its quality was not low, as well as several jade slips recording this person's pill refining experience. In addition, there were some items commonly used by cultivators, especially several unused middle-grade sound transmission jade slips, which were exactly what Zhang Yuanjing needed.
