The two sat there quietly for about an hour before flying home.
When Liu Xiaoyuan got home, his mother saw him wearing such clothes and thought he had suffered some hardship. She immediately asked him what happened, saying he was fine when he left and why he looked like this when he came back.
Liu Xiaoyuan lied and said that he had encountered some trouble outside, which was why he was like this. As for what happened, Liu Xiaoyuan asked his mother not to ask anymore.
After arriving home, Liu Xiaoyuan had a nice rest, and then the matter of the Medicine King Cauldron immediately came to mind. The deadline was only six months, and if he didn't find the Medicine King Cauldron within six months, he would be in big trouble.
Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan is now worried about this matter. The matter of the Medicine King Cauldron is a major headache for Liu Xiaoyuan.
What should he do? After thinking it over, Liu Xiaoyuan realized that he could only go outside to find out what was going on, as there was no way any news could be delivered to his doorstep from home.
In addition, Liu Xiaoyuan was worried that Su Xue would be captured by the fox demon clan again and taken back to be a saintess.
Of course, Liu Xiaoyuan is now looking for the Medicine King Cauldron, so he can't keep taking Su Xue with him. Although Su Xue isn't exactly a burden, she can't be of much help either.
Judging from its name, the Medicine King Cauldron is a remarkable magical artifact. Such artifacts are definitely coveted by cultivators with profound cultivation levels, and certainly not something a cultivator of Liu Xiaoyuan's level could obtain.
After staying at home for two days, Shao Yitian felt that he couldn't wait at home any longer and needed to go out for a walk. If he stayed at home any longer, the six months would pass quickly.
After telling his parents that he was going out of town to discuss some business, and also telling Lu Siyao and the others that he was going out to do some work, Liu Xiaoyuan set off.
Having learned from his previous experience, Liu Xiaoyuan packed several sets of clothes in his storage bag this time, so that even if they were destroyed, he would still have clothes to change into.
Liu Xiaoyuan first went to the Alchemy Guild. Since the name "Medicine King Cauldron" itself was related to alchemy, Liu Xiaoyuan's first stop was the Alchemy Guild. He hoped to find out the whereabouts of the Medicine King Cauldron from the alchemists there.
Upon arriving at the Alchemy Guild, some of the alchemists there, seeing Liu Xiaoyuan return, assumed that he had agreed to their terms and wanted to become a disciple of the Alchemy Guild.
The alchemists in the Alchemy Guild greatly admired a genius like Liu Xiaoyuan. Everyone likes to have a smart disciple, so that if the disciple surpasses them in skill in the future, they will feel proud.
"Xiao Yuan, have you thought this through and decided to join our Alchemy Guild?" Master Shao asked with a smile.
Having witnessed Liu Xiaoyuan's alchemy skills firsthand, Master Shao naturally hoped that Liu Xiaoyuan would become a disciple of the Alchemy Guild, and preferably his disciple.
Seeing Master Shao's smiling face, Liu Xiaoyuan really didn't want to shake his head and refuse, but Liu Xiaoyuan had no intention of becoming a disciple of the Alchemy Guild.
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "Master Shao, the reason I came to the Alchemy Guild this time is actually to ask you about something else."
Upon hearing this, Master Shao immediately understood Liu Xiaoyuan's meaning. It seemed that he had been presumptuous; Liu Xiaoyuan had never intended to become a disciple of the Alchemy Guild.
"Xiao Yuan, please feel free to tell me anything. I will tell you anything I know." Although Master Shao regretted that Liu Xiao Yuan could not join his alchemy guild, he thought that it was a good choice to form a good relationship with this genius.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Master Shao, thank you so much. I need to know the whereabouts of the Medicine King Cauldron. Do you know any information about the Medicine King Cauldron?"
After speaking, Liu Xiaoyuan turned his gaze to Master Shao, hoping that he could tell him some useful clues.
Upon hearing this, Master Shao did not answer Liu Xiaoyuan's question. Instead, he asked, "Liu Xiaoyuan, why are you asking this question? Do you need the Medicine King Cauldron?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Master Shao, I really need the Medicine King Cauldron. If you know anything about it, please tell me. I would be extremely grateful."
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, Master Shao said, "Xiaoyuan, I don't know the whereabouts of the Medicine King Cauldron either. This Medicine King Cauldron was the cauldron used by the Medicine King during his lifetime, and it is an object that we alchemists dream of refining pills. Therefore, not only do you want to know the whereabouts of the Medicine King Cauldron, but our Alchemy Guild, and even the entire cultivation world, want to obtain this Medicine King Cauldron."
Hearing Master Shao's words, Liu Xiaoyuan was a little confused. According to Master Shao, if Liu Xiaoyuan wanted to find the Medicine King Cauldron, it would be like making an enemy of the entire cultivation world.
This is outrageous! The system actually assigned me this kind of task. It's really a trap. It's true that there's no good outcome when you take out a loan.
Despite the cursing, Liu Xiaoyuan had no other choice. He still had to find the whereabouts of the Medicine King Cauldron, otherwise his life would be in danger in six months.
"Master Shao, thank you very much. I'll be taking my leave now." Since Master Shao didn't have any information about the Medicine King Cauldron, Liu Xiaoyuan decided to take his leave and not waste any more of his time.
Just as Liu Xiaoyuan was about to leave, Master Shao called out, "Xiaoyuan, wait!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan stopped and looked at Master Shao, asking, "Master Shao, is there anything else?"
Master Shao said, "Xiao Yuan, although I don't know the whereabouts of the Medicine King Cauldron, I have received some information about it, but I don't know if it's true or false."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan's eyes lit up; it was truly a case of "after the darkest hour comes the dawn."
"Master Shao, what's the news?" Liu Xiaoyuan was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly asked.
Master Shao said, "I have received news that the Medicine King Cauldron will appear in the Crimson Purgatory, but I don't know if this news is true or false."
Blood-Red Purgatory? This was the first time Shao Yitian had heard of this place name, so he quickly asked Master Shao where Blood-Red Purgatory was.
Master Shao then recounted the situation of this blood-red inferno to Liu Xiaoyuan.
It turns out that the Crimson Purgatory is an ancient ruin that opens once every fifty years. However, the Crimson Purgatory is fraught with danger. Those who go in to search for treasures must be extremely careful, not only to guard against the monsters inside, but also to guard against their own companions.
Because when faced with absolute self-interest, all talk of companionship and friendship is utter nonsense.
Therefore, every time this Crimson Purgatory opens, a group of people who enter it will die inside. Some are killed by the demons inside, while others are killed by their own companions or other cultivators.
Although this kind of thing happens every time, it still can't stop people from getting involved.
The saying goes that fortune favors the bold, and everyone wants to take a gamble. If they succeed and find their secret weapon, they will soar to great heights and become known to all.
