Chapter 876: The Treasure from the Alchemy Furnace
The huge underground space has become a world of wind and fire.
Zhou Wen didn't pay attention to the fight between Shi Jian and the old man. His attention was all on the alchemy furnace.
No matter how you look at it, that terrifying wind was prepared for this alchemy furnace. The alchemy furnace used the wind to make the flame inside the furnace become extremely hot.
"Is it true that the elixir of immortality is being refined in this furnace?" Zhou Wen had doubts in his heart. He had been using his listening skills to spy on the situation inside the furnace.
But because the wind and fire inside were too fierce, not much information could be heard.
When Zhou Wen was observing the alchemy furnace, a light suddenly appeared inside the furnace. Even in the raging fire, the light was still so obvious.
"Is it finally coming out? I've been waiting for so many years, and finally this day has come." The old man became excited when he saw the light in the furnace.
Jade light shone from his body, and he forcefully repelled the stone sword. He flew towards the alchemy furnace, grabbed the lid with one hand, and was about to open it.
The stone sword was not willing to be outdone. It flew up again and slashed at the old man's arm, forcing the old man to let go of the furnace lid first. Due to the pressure of the stone sword, the old man tried to open the lid of the furnace several times but failed.
"You have been fighting with me for so many years, and you still refuse to give up?" The old man was furious. He suddenly stepped back and temporarily got rid of the stone sword. The jade light on his body gathered on his right hand, making his jade right hand even more crystal clear, like crystal.
The stone sword seemed to sense the crisis and stopped rushing forward blindly. It began to gather strength, and characters actually appeared on the stone sword body.
Those characters carried strange power, and the appearance of each character made the sword seem heavier.
Zhou Wen took a closer look and discovered that the words appearing on the stone sword were actually a law.
"Those who offend the superiors...will be punished..."
With the appearance of that law, the stone sword seemed to have possessed unparalleled power all of a sudden, and it slashed towards the old man with a dominating force.
The old man's right hand, as white as crystal, stretched out almost at the same time.
The moment he stretched out his right hand, time and space seemed to condense, as if only his hand was moving and everything else was still.
when!
The stone sword was actually knocked away by the old man's right hand, and the rules on the sword were also broken.
Although the stone sword was not damaged, it could not stop flying into the vortex of fire, and no one knew what happened to it for a while.
The old man knocked the stone sword away and immediately rushed towards the alchemy furnace. Without the stone sword blocking him, he lifted the heavy furnace lid with one hand and reached in with the other hand to grab the dazzling object in the furnace.
Just as the old man was about to grab the things in the furnace, a white light suddenly shone out from the furnace.
The old man was completely unprepared and was hit by the white light. He screamed and fell off the furnace.
The brilliant light inside the furnace rose from the alchemy furnace like the sun. After leaving the furnace, the light of the object slowly dimmed. Zhou Wen could then see clearly that it was actually Jing Daoxian's Yin-Yang Mirror.
Jing Daoxian also jumped out of the alchemy furnace, stood on it, holding the Yin-Yang Mirror in his hand, and stared at the old man with a smile.
"Who are you? How dare you plot against me?" The old man struggled to stand up, but when Jing Daoxian waved the Yin-Yang Mirror in his hand, the old man was like a puppet, his body was out of his control, and he fell off the mountain and fell into the flames.
"You are just an alchemist. How dare you call yourself a king?" Jing Daoxian said disdainfully.
"Boss Jing, you are really awesome. That old man looks quite powerful, but I didn't expect that he can't even block one of your moves." Liuyun flattered him.
Jing Daoxian said, "He's not that powerful. I just took advantage of the opportunity to sneak attack. Otherwise, I wouldn't be his match. Although he's just an alchemist, he has merged with the guardian of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. After so many years, he has evolved to the level of fear. Among humans today, few can match him."
Seeing that Jing Daoxian actually admitted that he was no match for the old man and that he was only able to gain the upper hand by sneak attacks, Zhou Wen and Liuyun became even more wary of him.
The old man's body was truly terrifying. He actually rushed back from the vortex of fire, angrily wanting to kill Jing Daoxian.
But he had been injured by the Yin-Yang Mirror, which had locked his soul. Jing Daoxian just turned the Yin-Yang Mirror, and the old man's body flew out again.
Shi Jian originally regarded the old man as his mortal enemy, but this time he did not take the opportunity to kill the old man, but instead attacked Jing Daoxian.
Jing Daoxian raised the Yin-Yang Mirror to fight against the stone sword. The old man also fought back, but unfortunately he had just rushed back when he was controlled by the Yin-Yang Mirror and involuntarily crashed into the sword light of the stone sword.
As a result, the old man and the stone sword fought again.
The only difference is that last time it was the old man who volunteered to fight Shi Jian, but this time he was controlled by Jing Daoxian.
"What's going on? The stone sword was eager to chop the old man down with its sword just now, but now that it has the chance, it's dodging everywhere and not killing the old man?" Liuyun was full of doubts.
Zhou Wen said, "If I'm not mistaken, the stone sword should possess the power of law. It is the one that truly guards this place. The stone sword didn't try to stop Jing Daoxian before, probably because it thought Jing Daoxian couldn't get the contents of the furnace, and that the old man was the real threat, so it continued to guard the palace."
"But Shi Jian suddenly realized that Jing Daoxian is a greater threat than the old man, and he can't get rid of Jing Daoxian by himself, and can't stop Jing Daoxian from taking the things in the furnace. That's why he didn't kill the old man, hoping that the old man could get rid of Jing Daoxian's control and form a three-way confrontation." Zhou Wen thought for a while and said.
Liu Yun's eyes lit up, and he lowered his voice, using a secret method to transmit his voice so that only Zhou Wen could hear him: "Now that they are restraining each other, do you and I have a chance to seize the contents of the furnace?"
At this time, another ball of light lit up inside the alchemy furnace. Different from the light that Jing Daoxian had faked using the Yin-Yang Mirror just now, this sword was as smooth as jade, giving people a cool feeling in the blazing furnace fire.
"The wind and fire outside the furnace are already so strong, so the flames inside the furnace are even more terrifying. I'm afraid even the mythical armor can't stop it. If you and I go in, we will turn into ashes. How can we get the things inside?" Zhou Wen said.
"My Star Stealing Hand is unmatched in the world. What can't I get?" Liu Yun didn't believe he couldn't get the contents of the furnace. "How about we team up. I'll be responsible for stealing the contents of the furnace, and you use your teleportation ability and earth-burrowing beast to help me escape. After we get out, you and I will split the contents equally."
"Okay." Zhou Wen looked at Jing Daoxian who was fighting fiercely with Shi Jian and the old man. Seeing that he had no reaction at all, as if he didn't hear the conversation between the two, he nodded and said.
