Views:

Listening to the old man's reason, Han Li's expression remained unchanged, as if he couldn't deny the words. After listening, he nodded lightly, without saying anything, reached out to pick up the replica jade tube, turned and walked towards the passage.

"Since my friend wants to make alchemy, how about buying some more alchemy furnaces, how about I make it cheaper?" Seeing that Han Li was about to leave, the old man hurriedly started selling his goods again.

"No need, we don't need it for the time being!" Han Li said calmly, waving his hand without turning his head.

"That's such a pity. The alchemy furnace here can withstand the high temperature of the ground fire!" Seeing that the business was not completed, Mr. Xu said with some regret.

"Earth fire?" Han Li, who had already reached the entrance of the passage, stopped.

"It's the Fire of the Earth's Lungs, which is a bit more powerful than the Innate True Fire." The old man said casually.

"Didn't alchemy mean the use of congenital real fire! Can this ground fire replace it for alchemy?" Han Li tried his best to keep his voice calm, but his heart was pounding violently. He knew that he might have found a way out to solve his difficulty in making Foundation Establishment Pills.

"Hehe! It seems that my little friend knows nothing about the fact that the world of cultivating immortals has long used earth fire instead of congenital true fire to make alchemy! However, this is not a big deal, basically anyone who has refined alchemy once or twice knows. Then I will tell my little friend about it for free!" The old man Han Li seemed to be very concerned about this, and his spirits lifted, but he deliberately bit the word "free".

Han Li couldn't understand the meaning of the other party's words, so he couldn't help but smiled wryly. The other party told him clearly that although he said that he could tell him for free, but it was free to say one sentence, and it was also free to say seven or eight sentences. The difference in this was too much.

But this matter was of great importance, and Han Li didn't care to pester him any longer.

So he walked back directly, and said without hesitation: "As long as what Mr. Xu said about the earth fire is true, then I'll just pick another pill furnace here!"

"Hey! The alchemy furnace here is definitely a high-quality product, and it will definitely satisfy my little friend!" Seeing that the goal has been successfully achieved, Mr. Xu couldn't help squinting his eyes and laughing.

"In fact, using congenital real fire to make alchemy is already a long time ago! Today's alchemy in the world of immortality is to use the fire of the earth's lungs in the land of Xuanyang to temper elixir. Because a long time ago, our predecessors It has been found that the earth fire is not only purer and hotter than the real fire of the monks, but also particularly durable and stable. Cultivation sects with high conditions and even larger cultivation families have their own special Xuanyang fire ground for their children to refine alchemy and weapons. Only those wild cultivators who are alone and unable to borrow ground fire, And then use this kind of real fire alchemy method with a very high rate of discarding alchemy." The old man shook his head and said this.

"Then this sect also has a ground fire that can be borrowed? Does Mr. Xu know where it is?" Han Li was elated, suppressing the excitement in his heart, and asked the key point in an orderly manner.

"Ha ha!…

When the old man heard Han Li's question, he couldn't help laughing out loud. Han Li blinked while laughing, a little puzzled!

"When you first entered Yuelu Hall, did you see a passage without any markings, that passage leads to Xuanyang Fire Land, if you hand in some spirit stones there, you can borrow the Earth Fire!" After laughing freely, the old man finally told Han Li the truth.

"Is that true?" Han Li couldn't help showing joy, and said with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"I'm old, can I still lie to you as a junior?" Mr. Xu said a little displeased.

"This junior made a slip of the tongue! Please forgive Mr. Xu!" Han Li also felt that even if the other party was greedy for money, it was impossible for him to fool himself on such a matter, so he sincerely said humbly.

"Huh, for the sake of my young age, I will forgive you this time!" The old man's expression softened, but then he said with a straight face: "But when it comes to buying discounts on pill furnaces, I won't Give it again."

When Han Li heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. This old man really never forgets to take advantage!

"Are these alchemy furnaces?" Han Li pointed to the large and small cauldron furnaces on the other side's shelf and asked.

"Of course not. Those are just ordinary goods, and they can only be used to make low-quality pills. How can they withstand the scorching of the ground fire? The real high-quality pill furnaces are all here!" He patted an inconspicuous gray cloth bag on his waist.

Seeing this old man, he took off the cloth bag and looked at the open space beside him and patted it lightly. As a result, a blue light rolled up, and a row of antique and uniquely styled ding ding appeared on the ground.

"How about it? These are the top-grade alchemy furnaces collected by the old man, each one is a high-quality product, definitely not ordinary goods!" The old man picked up the nearest cauldron furnace, tapped it, and said with some pride.

"It's really good!" As soon as these cauldrons appeared, Han Li could feel the traces of aura emanating from them, and couldn't help saying "Huh".

But in fact, what caught his attention even more was the other party's unremarkable cloth bag. This was definitely a high-end storage bag that exceeded its storage capacity by ten times, otherwise it would be impossible to hold so many large items.

"Hehe! This old man is not boasting. Xu is a great master at refining cauldrons. Most of the cauldrons made by the low-level disciples of this sect are made by this old man. These are the best among them!" The old man saw Han Li was a little moved, and said with joy.

Han Li smiled slightly, without saying a word to refute, slowly walked to the side of the cauldrons, bent down and began to choose.

"This is the Luohu Ding, which can absorb the high temperature of the flames, increase the rate of pill formation, and also..."

Whenever Han Li picked up a furnace and looked at it carefully, this old Xu would chatter and boast non-stop, wishing to describe each one as a treasure that was rare in the sky and unparalleled in the earth. It seemed that he would not buy it immediately. That's a violent thing! Han Li couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"That's all!" Han Li inspected each cauldron, and after pondering for a while, pointed to the smallest silver cauldron and said to the old man.

"Tsk tsk! You really have a good eye. This silver silk cauldron is definitely a masterpiece in the alchemy furnace. It is a rare high-grade magic weapon. It is also the top treasure among all my cauldrons!" Xu Lao saw Han Li Picking the smallest one, he was a little surprised, but immediately looked normal, and praised the silver tripod into a flower, full of praise.

"What does this have to do with vision? I just considered that the storage bag has limited space, so I can only fit this cauldron!" Han Li thought unhappily when he heard the old man's noisy words.

In the end, after bargaining with the old man, Han Li bought the item at the price of thirty-two low-level spirit stones. Then left here without hesitation.

In the short period of contact with this old Xu, Han Li spent more than fifty spirit stones, even considering his considerable wealth, it was a great heartache. Therefore, I really don't want to stay here for a while, even if the other party is very enthusiastic and continues to keep him.

After leaving Elder Xu's house, Han Li returned to the hall where the teleportation array was located, but he didn't immediately teleport out of the hall. Instead, after thinking for a while, he walked along the unmarked passage.

As a result, a huge stone gate appeared at the end of the passage, blocking the way. The multicolored light flowed continuously on the stone gate, and one could tell that an extremely powerful forbidden method had been used at a glance, making people dare not act rashly!

And there is another small stone house next to the stone gate, and there is an ugly man with pimples in the house. This ugly man only reached the top level of basic skills, but he showed a proud look of indifference to Han Li, which made Han Li very upset!

But who is Han Li? Although he was disgusted in his heart, he looked calm on the surface. Even if he asked three sentences, the other party only answered one sentence reluctantly, but it still allowed Han Li to inquire about the situation here clearly, and he did it well!

Then, Han Li didn't seem to care about the other party's rudeness, so he politely bid farewell to the other party and left there. But before he took a few steps, he heard the ugly man muttering.

"A poor ghost among low-level disciples, but also wants to learn from others to make alchemy? Is it because his brain is broken, the guy who just talks but doesn't practice, let the uncle waste so much drool!"

Han Li's figure, after hearing the other party's words, didn't show any abnormality at all, but his face turned away from the ugly man was so cold that frost could be blown out, and the murderous intent in his eyes even flashed past.
