Tang Zhen is a smart guy.
After remembering the name "Xiao Xuan", he not only agreed to give the "Three Profound Changes of Heavenly Fire" to Xiao Yan, but also did not require Xiao Yan to refine medicine.
In front of Xiao Yan, he bowed to Qing Huan and said, "I'll have to trouble you for the elixir this time, Grandmaster."
Qing Huan looked at him deeply and said with a smile: "No problem, just prepare the herbs and the recipe, I can make it anytime."
Tang Zhen was overjoyed and quickly arranged for someone to take everyone to rest while he went to prepare the medicinal materials.
……
In the guest room of Fenyan Valley, Xiao Yan said dissatisfiedly: "Does this Valley Master not trust my alchemy skills? You clearly said that I have the ability to refine..."
Qing Huan glanced at him and said, "You can't look at it that way. If you were the one refining it, then the relationship between you and Fen Yan Valley would be a simple transaction... But now you don't need to refine the medicine, and you are directly given the "Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire". You owe Fen Yan Valley a huge favor!
Furthermore, I only took a trace of the origin of the Thunder Gang Fire. Although I promised to refine medicine for Fen Yan Valley once, it was only a trace of the origin of the strange fire. Could it be that Fen Yan Valley would rely on such a tiny insignificant price to ask me for an eighth-grade or even ninth-grade elixir?
If that's the case, although I can help them refine it, our relationship will end there.
On the contrary, Tang Zhen has given you the "Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire" for free, and asked me to refine a seventh-grade pill. We have a friendship between us... and I have to accept his favor. If he asks me for help in the future, can I refuse?"
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then gradually understood what was going on. He smiled bitterly and said, "I see. Valley Master Tang is interested in our relationship... As expected of the Valley Master of Burning Flame Valley, he does things so flawlessly!"
Qing Huan smiled and said, "Not only that, his action also won the gratitude of those alchemists. He killed several birds with one stone and made a fortune."
"Too smart, I'm afraid only Sister Yafei can compare with her!"
Xiao Yan sighed, changed the topic, and asked in a low voice: "By the way, who is Xiao Xuan?"
Qing Huan was speechless and said, "Didn't I say it? The ancestor of the Xiao family."
Xiao Yan opened his mouth wide: "Is it really my ancestor?"
Qing Huan sighed and said, "Do you remember what I said when you were practicing the "Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire"? This is not a secret method to simply improve your strength, but a method to cultivate your bloodline!
This technique was created by your Xiao family's ancestor Xiao Xuan and gifted to Fenyan Valley. This is also one of the reasons why Tang Zhen gave you the "Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire" for free.
But don't be too happy too soon. As far as I know, the "Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire" of Fenyan Valley is not complete. It lacks the most critical formula, which only Xiao Xuan himself knows. "
Xiao Yan was dumbfounded. The Three Mysterious Transformations of Skyfire was actually created by his own ancestor?
……
On the other side, the red-dressed woman Tang Huo'er was also asking Tang Zhen, "Dad, who is Xiao Xuan? Is this name worthy of you giving away our Burning Flame Valley's treasure?"
Tang Zhen smiled and said, “You might as well look through the family history books when you have time. The founder of my Fenyan Valley, the Fenyan Ancestor, was once a top powerhouse who shocked the entire continent.
At the same time, there were only four people who could compare with the Burning Flame Ancestor. The five of them represented the most powerful forces in the Douqi Continent. They were all extremely powerful and only one step away from the legendary Doudi level! "
"Emperor Dou?!"
Tang Huo'er's pretty face was filled with shock. This title, without any embellishment, was able to possess infinite pressure, making everyone under this word become as small as an ant.
"Could it be that Xiao Xuan is one of them? Then who are the other three?"
Tang Zhen pondered for a while and said, "Because it's been a long time, I don't remember the specific names of the other three people, but I know that three of them belong to the three major forces, the Ancient Clan, the Soul Palace, and the Dan Tower...
According to ancestral records, this Xiao Xuan had a deep friendship with the old ancestor Fen Yan. Even the Three Mysterious Changes of Heavenly Fire were created by this Xiao Xuan and then given to the old ancestor Fen Yan.
Now that Xiao Yan is Xiao Xuan's descendant, giving the Skyfire Three Mysterious Transformations to him can be considered returning the item to its original owner."
Tang Huoer smiled and said, "This friendship dates back thousands of years. Dad, what you are doing is probably more than just that, right?"
Tang Zhen also laughed and said, "Huo'er, why don't you think about it, what is the meaning of Dad doing this?"
Tang Huo'er thought about it and said, "First of all, Xiao Yan is not a simple person. Dad, you are very optimistic about his future. If we can continue this friendship, it will only benefit our Burning Flame Valley, not harm it.
Secondly, Xiao Yan and Li Qinghuan have a very good relationship. Dad did this to use Xiao Yan to establish a relationship with Li Qinghuan.
But I don’t quite understand. Li Qinghuan said that Xiao Yan is Xiao Xuan’s descendant, and you believed it? Didn’t you even ask for confirmation? "
"You are still too superficial in your view of things."
Tang Zhen smiled and said, "Since you have already said those two points, does the truth of the matter still matter?"
Tang Huoer thought about it and said suddenly: "Okay, it doesn't matter!"
Tang Zhen suddenly asked, "Huo'er, what do you think of Li Qinghuan's fire control technique?"
Tang Huoer paused for a moment, and said dejectedly: "I don't understand." The word "I don't understand" is enough to express the gap between them!
Tang Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "I can only get a glimpse of it, but Fenyan Valley is famous for controlling fire. I am sure of one thing, if you want to control fire, you must first understand fire!
He was able to easily take the origin of the strange fire from my hand, which shows his understanding of fire. Perhaps, your hope of fusing the strange fire will still fall on him."
Tang Huoer seemed to be thinking about something.
……
The medicinal materials had been prepared by Fenyan Valley long ago, and the time for refining was scheduled for that afternoon.
The huge valley is lush with greenery, occasionally dotted with fiery red maple trees, which looks extremely eye-catching.
In the center of the valley, there is a spacious square built with red volcanic rocks.
In the center of the square, there is a stone platform about ten feet high. At this moment, there are many figures around the square. Most of them are wearing red clothes. They are obviously disciples of Fenyan Valley.
When Qing Huan and Xiao Yan came here under the guidance of Tang Zhen, the group of alchemists were already waiting there.
When they saw Qinghuan, their eyes were burning with desire.
With a gesture from Tang Huoer, the square immediately became quiet.
Tang Zhen handed a scroll to Qing Huan and said, "Master, the elixir I want to refine this time is called Fire Bodhisattva Pill, and its grade is high-grade seventh grade... This is the complete elixir recipe."
Qing Huan opened it and took a look, then smiled and said, "It's too complicated. Such complicated means are only for the purpose of making this seventh-grade high-level elixir have the effect of an eighth-grade elixir... How about I modify it for you and refine it directly into an eighth-grade elixir?"
Tang Zhen was stunned. He didn't expect that the other party could see through the core of this pill recipe with just one glance. While he was shocked, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Master, you don't know. If it is an eighth-grade spiritual medicine, it will be difficult for my Burning Flame Valley to collect it all..."
Qing Huan nodded and said, "I understand. Let's do it this way."
The medicinal materials needed for seventh-grade elixirs and those needed for eighth-grade elixirs are completely different concepts.
The seventh-grade elixir has spirituality, and the eighth-grade elixir is directly life.
Stepping onto the stone platform, Tang Zhen hesitated again and said, "I am not an alchemist, but I have a lot of strength, and I have the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire to help me. If Grandmaster needs it, I can do the step of refining the herbs."
Refining medicinal materials is a test of fire. Although Tang Zhen cannot see through Qinghuan's strength, at his age, his strength is not that strong.
It would definitely take a long time to refine the medicinal materials in this way, plus the fusion of the medicinal properties in the later stage... Tang Zhen was very worried that Qinghuan would not be able to hold on.
It can also be seen that he attaches great importance to this alchemy.
Qing Huan laughed, and could understand his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Valley Master."
As he was speaking, an unpleasant sound of "Quack, quack..." was heard.
A black crow flew out from somewhere, flapped its wings and landed on Qinghuan's shoulder, tilting its head to look at Tang Zhen with its two dark eyes.
Tang Zhen's heart skipped a beat, as if he saw a raging fire in those little eyes, a world made entirely of flames!
Coming back to his senses, Tang Zhen subconsciously took a step back and said with lingering fear: "What a terrifying flame..."
Qing Huan teased the crow with her fingers and said, "Valley Master, you should take out the herbs and finish the practice quickly."
Tang Zhen let out a breath and smiled bitterly in his heart. He was actually frightened by a crow with fire!
With a wave of his sleeves, a huge object flew out of his storage ring and landed heavily on the center of the stone platform. Its heavy weight caused the stone platform to tremble.
It was a huge medicine cauldron that was about ten feet tall. The entire cauldron was fiery red, and on the round wall of the cauldron, there were patterns that looked like a volcanic eruption.
"Mountain-Melting Cauldron! It's on the "Heavenly Cauldron List"!" someone exclaimed.
Tang Zhen smiled proudly and waved his sleeves again. Densely packed medicinal herbs flew out from his storage ring continuously. There were at least hundreds of them.
Before Tang Zhen could say anything, the crow croaked a few times and opened its mouth to spit out something.
The flames swept out like a torrent, instantly enveloping all the medicinal herbs.
The terrifying temperature made Tang Zhen tremble with fear. The seemingly ordinary flame made Tang Zhen feel the breath of strange fire...
Moreover, this superior flame is formed by the fusion of many different fires.
If it didn't contain a trace of Nine Dragons Thunder Fire aura, he wouldn't be able to tell it apart at all!
It turns out that Qing Huan asked for a trace of the origin of the Nine Dragons Thunder Fire to use it here...
Tang Zhen vaguely guessed the true identity of the crow. (End of this chapter)
