The old man was wearing an alchemist's robe covered with stars. He flew across the sky on a magic carpet, then crossed the lake and arrived at Fang Xiu's house.
He hesitated again and again before setting off, but when he arrived at the door, the old man no longer hesitated, because he knew that he would definitely be discovered if he was a few miles away.
Magic carpets are very popular in White Harbor because they are very convenient and easy to make compared to other flying props.
It can be used by one person or multiple people, and is divided into different levels according to the manufacturing process. There are first-level magic flying carpets and fourth-level magic flying carpets. This kind of magic flying carpet even has certain life characteristics. It can speak, has basic intelligence, and can recognize its owner. However, it can speak because the materials integrated into the magic flying carpet have souls, not because the magic flying carpet itself has a soul.
John Fogel was sitting like this at the moment, standing at the door of a cottage covered with vines, which seemed to be surrounded by lakes, flowers and forests. Before he knocked on the door, he saw a vortex spreading out and swallowed him up.
"Space props?"
Sitting on the magic flying carpet, the old man immediately found himself in a Taoist temple for meditation. Many faceless palace servants and yellow-turbaned strongmen were busy inside and outside. Fang Zheng was trying to refine an elixir of immortality that he had made, but he had not succeeded yet.
The elixir of immortality can only allow beings below the fourth level to live one more life. Fang Xiu also has a matching elixir of immortality, which is for beings above the fourth level to take.
He has recently been hatching the fairy eggs that are gradually turning into stillbirths, and at the same time transforming their appearance into creatures of the Mountain and Sea Realm. In the meantime, Fang Xiu has gradually understood the template of this creature, and had some ideas about the Tree of Youth and the Fountain of Life, so he began to refine this life-extending elixir.
However, this was just a fairy egg, not the mythical forest fairy or lake fairy, so Fang Xiu was still a little disappointed. But after the creature hatched from the fairy egg becomes a fairy, perhaps he can understand the power of this magical creature.
"My possession is a space magic weapon!"
Fang Xiu was standing in front of the alchemy furnace at this moment. The tall furnace was nearly as high as three stories high and looked incredibly large. The magical faceless palace servants and the yellow-turbaned strongmen threw spiritual materials into it. The sky was filled with flames inside and immortal energy was constantly vibrating out.
Originally, the alchemist was very interested in these alchemical dolls, but when he heard the information about the so-called space props, his face immediately changed and he became extremely enthusiastic.
"Really? Fengdu, my dear friend, I am willing to pay any price, as long as you are willing to let me study the space props and know the reasons for the creation of space and..."
Fang Xiu stared at the outgoing old man with a cold gaze and immediately interrupted the second half of his sentence. This old man was thick-skinned, black-hearted and a little crazy, which was somewhat similar to a mad scientist. However, when facing a figure like Fengdu, he was still a little panicked.
Fang Xiu slapped the huge alchemy cauldron again, and the spiritual liquid inside quickly gathered, but it collapsed directly at the last step. Thick black smoke and the smell of corrosion came out from it.
“Failed again!”
Fang Xiu didn't take it too seriously. Failure was normal in this kind of alchemy exploration, so he immediately ordered people to clean the furnace.
"Have you already refined your Alchemy Tower as a possession?"
When Fang Xiu looked at the alchemist John Vogel this time, he discovered that he had made a breakthrough. His strength was not limited to the fourth level, but he had truly broken into the fifth level. His soul had also undergone some changes, and he should have his own possession.
However, its power is far less than that of Fang Xiu who relies on the magic weapon of the cave sky and that of Nanhua Zhenjun who relies on the blessed island. It is even less comparable to Jia Yi's celestial immortal path and the divine body of King Yama. Fang Xiu knew without thinking much that he must have used his own alchemy tower as a possession.
However, this is not a rare thing. After all, not everyone can find such a god-and-devil-level thing as a possession. Many extraordinary people who have crossed the fourth-level threshold have begun to give up and started to try lower-level possessions that are more suitable for them.
However, Fang Xiu did not expect that the alchemist John Vogel would do the same. With his ability, he would definitely be able to find a better one.
John Fogel immediately said: "Possession is what you call it in the East. We prefer to call it Horcrux, the container of the soul. This is the key for us to open the door to mythology."
Fang Xiu nodded, and led John Vogel through the corridor with the mural of the Fairy Holding the Moon, and entered the Taoist Palace in the front hall: "You can find a better existence as a container for your soul. Although an ordinary alchemy tower can also make you a fifth-level one, its power is far inferior to those existences that use the instruments left by gods and demons as soul containers."
John Fogel did not show any sign of frustration, but instead spoke proudly.
"Better is not necessarily the most suitable!"
Fang Xiu continued, "This is the foundation for entering the realm of gods and demons. If you are too weak, you will have no hope of taking that last step."
"As an alchemist, I should create the key to my myth with my own hands. The Alchemy Tower is the most suitable for me. Everything about it, every part from beginning to end, was designed and made by me personally."
"It may not be perfect or powerful enough now, but under my design, it will become impeccable and surpass everything in the end, becoming the most dazzling existence in the world. Even now, I don't think my Alchemy Tower will lose to anyone."
The faceless palace servant came to have tea, and after listening to what the old man said, Fang Xiu actually looked at him with a new respect.
At this time, the alchemist John Fogel suddenly remembered why he came: "By the way, Mr. Fengdu, I came here specially this time to seek your advice and help."
"You should have heard about the rumor that the remains of the gods appeared in the underworld!"
Fang Xiu glanced at the alchemist and said, "You want the stuff inside too?"
Alchemist John nodded: "The artifact and the so-called method of becoming a god have no appeal to me, but the legendary stone from heaven..."
When he said this, the old man became very excited, his white beard began to tremble, and his eyes were full of fire: "It is called the Heavenly Stone, the stone in the sky that can make the continent and the world float. I must get it."
Alchemist John Vogel looked at Fang Xiu and said in a passionate and enthusiastic tone: "Mr. Fengdu! You must also want to see that one day, the great White Harbor City will fly into the sky and stand tall above the world!"
Fang Xiu took a sip of tea and said calmly: "I'm not that interested!"
“…”
For a moment, John Fogel didn't know what to say. He came here excitedly, thinking that the other party had the same great ideals and goals as himself.
"That… "
John Fogel was a little disappointed and was about to get up and leave, but Fengdu's last sentence made his eyes light up instantly.
"But if it's just the Celestial Stone, no one should compete with you for it!"
"Many people I know in the world of gods and demons are preparing to fight for divine artifacts and the inheritance of the gods, including several important gods in the underworld. If you just want the Heavenly Stone, I can introduce you to them!"
This time, the remains of the gods were revealed. Relatively speaking, the so-called major forces, in fact, the gods of the mountains and seas, especially the gods of the underworld who ascended to the position of righteous gods, were the ones who were truly crazy and desperate.
After all, for others, this thing may be extremely important, but it is not fatal if they don’t have it. But for them, it is their only hope to achieve immortality.
After all, everyone who can become a true god has either failed on the path to immortality or is a great sage with outstanding merits. No one wants to gradually lose himself under the erosion of the power of incense and turn into a Shinto puppet.
In order to fight for this only opportunity, the gods are the most crazy.
