After Su Rui sighed, Xiaotu from the Niwan Palace agreed, "This is truly a rare treasure! This furnace is meticulously crafted from high-quality copper ore from Shoushan. Its body is incredibly sturdy, even in the event of a furnace explosion. It can also withstand prolonged burning from various types of true fire without any deformation or damage."
Even more astonishing was the ingenious constant temperature array within the furnace, which automatically adjusted the temperature to ensure a constant stable alchemy environment. This significantly increased the success rate of alchemy.
Furthermore, the furnace is surrounded by two dragon spirits, one water and one fire, guarding it, while a phoenix hovers above it to suppress it. These not only prevent outside demons from coveting and interfering with the elixirs within, but also firmly restrain the various ingredients within, preventing them from escaping. Such powerful protection is truly rare!
"This is carefully refined in imitation of the alchemy furnace of the Supreme Taoist Ancestor. The selection of materials and refining process are extremely particular. How can it not be good!" Jiuyi Ding also echoed.
Although Lei Lin was skilled in the ways of killing, he knew nothing about the alchemy furnace and could only watch from the sidelines. Upon hearing this, he could no longer suppress his doubts and blurted out, "How do you know it was made by imitating the alchemy furnace of the Supreme Dao Ancestor?"
In fact, this question was also lingering in Su Rui's mind, but before he could express it, Lei Lin took the lead and solved it for him.
The Jiuyi Ding trembled slightly, as if recalling the past, and replied leisurely, "I was originally forged by the ancient Human Emperor. Since ancient times, I have gone through countless epochs. Although I have never seen the true appearance of the Supreme Dao Ancestor, I have heard a little about his alchemy furnace!"
Its words reveal a sense of having experienced many vicissitudes of life and being knowledgeable.
"Can you accept it?"
Su Rui frowned and asked softly. This alchemy furnace was so powerful that if he couldn't subdue it and claim it for himself, then no matter how powerful it was, it would be meaningless. Therefore, Su Rui couldn't suppress his curiosity and desire and asked.
Upon hearing Su Rui's question, the Jiuyi Ding immediately responded, "Although this furnace is extremely valuable, it has yet to develop spiritual wisdom. If you, my master, wish to take it with you, you can place it within me. This will not only make it easier to store and carry, but also allow me to nourish and warm it!"
Su Rui nodded without hesitation, "Okay!" Before he finished speaking, a brilliant rainbow light suddenly shot out from between his brows. As fast as lightning, it struck the triangular cauldron before him with unerring accuracy. In an instant, the light, along with the cauldron itself, sank into the belly of the Jiuyi Cauldron.
At this point, the entire alchemy room had been searched thoroughly without leaving any room behind.
Su Rui didn't dare to delay any further and immediately turned and rushed to the next room. Unfortunately, the rooms that were forbidden were beyond the reach of the Earthly True Fire Evil. No matter how hard he tried, he failed and ultimately returned empty-handed.
Suri had walked through the entire courtyard, but he was still eager to see the wild grass and jungle. So he hurried back to the hall of the courtyard and prepared to leave this place.
But just as he passed the hall and was about to step out of the door, Xiaotu suddenly called him and reminded him, "Master, there is a hidden mechanism in this hall. Do you want to explore it?"
Hearing this, Su Rui stopped immediately and asked in surprise: "Where is it?"
"It's right in the center of the hall's inner wall, behind the hanging scroll!" Xiaotu replied confidently, "This courtyard uses ordinary landscape pavilions and other items to cleverly create an extremely hidden concealment formation. From the moment the master stepped into the courtyard, I noticed something amiss. It wasn't until we walked the entire courtyard and returned here that I finally deduced the secret!"
"Since it's so well hidden, the things hidden inside must be extraordinary!" Su Rui thought to himself, "However, the danger hidden in this mechanism may not be underestimated. We must act with caution to avoid any accidents here!"
Thinking of this, he decided to take a closer look at the surrounding environment before making a final decision.
"Xiaotu, let's do some more calculations to see if there are any other formations or mechanisms hidden in here?"
Su Rui whispered instructions to his companions.
Xiaotu nodded, responded, and began to concentrate on his calculations. Time passed, and finally, with a slight hesitation, Xiaotu said, "Master, according to my calculations, there doesn't seem to be any mechanism here..."
Su Rui was puzzled by Xiaotu's words, but he knew Xiaotu's calculations were always accurate and had never made a mistake. After a moment's reflection, he decided to trust Xiaotu's words and walked without hesitation in the direction Xiaotu indicated, arriving at the scroll hanging on the inner wall of the hall.
Su Rui reached out and gently took the painting down. The painting depicted a scene of "A Man Returning Home at Night in a Snowy Scene" with delicate brushstrokes and profound artistic conception. However, to his disappointment, the wall behind the painting looked ordinary, with no signs of hidden treasures.
Su Rui frowned, thought for a moment, raised his hand and knocked on the wall a few times, hoping to find some clues. But the sound of the wall was dull and solid, not hollow.
Seeing this, Su Rui no longer hesitated, immediately unleashing his unique skill—the Xiantian Gengjin Thunder Sword Qi. With a flick of his sword, a dazzling golden sword beam suddenly shot out, tracing a vast circle centered on the location indicated by the small diagram. In an instant, the sword flashed, dust flew, and a small piece of wall peeled off.
