Chapter 275 CHAPTER 174: The Inheritance Of The Stone Statue Of The 15th Platform!
The first thing Joey saw was a twelve-year-old boy running toward a house. The boy carried an enormous cauldron on his back.
It was an old house located far within a deserted bamboo forest. There was also a small stream passing through the middle of the forest near the old house.
The boy was tall for his age, neither lean nor fatty, and a straight pointy black hair. He wore a green silk Daoist robe. From his looks, he seemed to be from a wealthy family.
The boy came before the rusty iron door. He then made various hand seals. The next moment, a red essence qi flowed and gathered around his palms.
The boy then pressed his palms on the rusty door. Just after his hands glowing with red essence qi touched the rusty door, a strange scene began to play before Joey's eyes.
Various strange symbols began to appear all over the rusty door that Joey had never seen before.
Joey thought, "Hmm, this door seems to be some kind of higher tier array formation."
The boy turned around and looked at Joey.
"Eh! Does he see me?" Joey muttered as he still understood that this place had something to do with the stone statue man holding the giant furnace on the 15th platform.
"No, he is just looking by coincidence," Joey said as the boy changed his viewing angle.
Creak! Creak! Creak!
The old rusty door began to open up with a creaking sound. The boy rushed inside it. Joey also followed him and entered the house.
Shortly after the boy entered, the rusty door shut itself automatically, making a bang sound! It became completely pitch black dark inside the room.
Joey could not see anything, as it was too dark. He heard a clapping sound of hands.
After a brief moment, light began to appear inside the house, revealing a breathtaking sight for Joey. He saw himself inside a vast hall decorated with strange kinds of gems glittering all around the room. The interior was the exact opposite of what it appeared from the outside. The walls were drawn with various pictures of men and women practicing alchemy with medical furnaces.
The boy panted heavily and then shouted, "Do you all think I am a fool for practicing pill making? Hmm, they all look down on me and warn me that pill making is just a secondary type of cultivation and there is no future for me." He then muttered to himself with a determined face, " Hmm, those idiots. They know nothing at all, as I have already gotten the inheritance of the Immortal Pill Dao Master. And I also have this immortal abode, too. Just see after I can completely refine this abode. No one will dare to look down on me. Ha ha ha…."
The boy then threw down his cauldron on the ground, making a muffled thud sound. He then sat down in a lotus position on the clean floor, which was made of some kind of strange stone.
After that, he tapped his index finger on his forehead and the next moment, a beam of red light shot out from his forehead. The next moment, the red beam of light materialized into a thick book with red covers.
Joey moved closer and saw the title of the book written in Old Chinese text as,
The Lexicon Of Alchemy Dao
The boy flipped the cover and began reading the contents of the books loudly. After reading for 2 hours, the boy stood up and began practicing as the book suggested.
It was a tier 1 pill he was currently making. It took only once for him to refine the pill. Joey looked over the white pill and exclaimed, "Ah! This is 100% pure tier-1 pill. Hmm, even though he seemed to be cocky earlier, this boy is really a damn genius. I always thought that 99% purity was the limit of any pill. But this boy is really an eye opener for me. " As Joey had already tried many times to make a 100% pure pill, but 99% was always his limit. Ai Long, his alchemy part-time mentor, also praised him for it and told him that to make a 100% pure pill was an impossible feat as there were variables while concocting a pill. Joey also stopped trying after that, thinking that it was really an impossible feat.
But seeing that boy concocted a 100% pure pill in front of him changed his idea completely.
The various herbs required for the pills appeared out in the thin air with the waving of the boy's hands as if this abode had an unlimited amount of herbs.
The boy continued making various other tier-1 pills one by one. He succeeded in concocting 100% pure pills, all of them on his first try.
"Interesting!" Joey muttered and observed him concocting the pills carefully.
After an hour later, the boy successfully concocted 21 different tier-1 pills already. Until now, he had been concocting all of them one by one without taking any rest. Sweats began to pour out all over his body, wetting his green Daoist robe, sticking to his skin. He wiped the sweat from his face with his sleeve once and fainted on the ground without any energy.
"Hah!" "This little guy is really amazing. His passion for alchemy was also really praiseworthy." Joey muttered and came beside him. He then looked at the book on the ground and tried to pick it up.
The moment he touched it. The thick book suddenly turned into a beam of red light and entered his consciousness through his forehead. At that time, the eyes of Joey's consciousness, which was now in the preserved memory world of an alchemy master, began to flash with red lights. Within a fraction of a second, Joey saw the lifetime journey of the boy to his path to become the next Alchemy Dao Master and the scene ended abruptly as he went out to join the Realms War that broke out between different powerful races. As if he didn't like to show the memory of him to Joey after that.
But his last words to the masses before he went to the Realms War echoed in Joey's heart, " Listen alchemy is not the trash cultivation route that you all have been thinking about.....
