Chapter Four: She's Going to Destroy the Spirit Vein
After coldly surveying her surroundings, Han Wei raised her hand and summoned the Mystic Bell. The bell swayed gently, its light flashing, and a murderous aura emanated from her body, indicating that she was about to make a move.
But she quickly regained her composure. She put away the magic bell and walked forward.
Han Wei had no idea anyone was following her; she was just trying to bluff. It was a habit she had from her past life—regardless of whether she noticed anyone was following her, she would bluff first.
The man in white watched her retreating figure and chuckled silently. "This little girl is so cunning."
The man in white smiled, his handsome face as beautiful as celestial dew and pearls, but unfortunately no one could see it. He leisurely followed behind Han Wei, and followed her into the main hall.
After Han Wei entered the main hall, he looked at everything with a dazed expression.
Han Wei was thinking of her parents and the days she had spent here. Standing in the main hall, she could almost hear her parents calling her name:
"Weiwei, Weiwei..."
She gazed at everything familiar—the carved pillars, the mica screen depicting the four seasons, the incense burner placed in the corner—and her eyes welled up with tears.
The man in white looked at her expression and wondered: Could she be Han Wen and Xu Hui's daughter?
Han Wei knew this was not a place to linger, so she quickly composed herself. She walked towards the pool in the center of the hall, where many lotus flowers were in full bloom. Han Wei bit her finger, and the bright red blood dripped into the pool, making the water seem to boil.
Blue light emanated from the pool, illuminating the main hall. Suddenly, the pool water evaporated completely, revealing a stone platform underneath. The platform then dipped towards the center, revealing a jade-colored box with a yellow talisman attached.
Han Wei raised her hand, and the box flew towards her.
Han Wei looked down at the box, thinking to herself: Xie Yun really didn't know this thing existed.
This item was obtained by Han Wei's grandfather. What was inside was unknown; in any case, neither her parents nor her third uncle had ever opened it. In her previous life, the Qingyun Sect was destroyed, and when Han Wei returned, she couldn't find it; it's unknown who got it.
After taking the box and storing it in her storage bag, Han Wei left Cloud Peak. The man in white followed her. After leaving Cloud Peak, Han Wei transformed back into Song Xuan's appearance. The man in white was very curious about her next move.
————
Every major sect has to set up a special place for its disciples to refine pills and weapons. Although Xinglin Peak is rich in spiritual energy and suitable for cultivating medicinal herbs, it is not a good place for refining pills and weapons.
Fire Spirit Peak is the place with the most abundant earth fire in the entire Azure Cloud Sect. Deep underground lies a fire spirit vein, making it an excellent place for alchemy and weapon crafting. The pills for Apricot Forest Peak are all refined on Fire Spirit Peak and then sent over.
Han Wei, disguised as Song Xuan, arrived at a grand hall on Fire Spirit Peak, where a middle-aged Core Formation cultivator immediately greeted her respectfully:
"Junior Brother Song, it's been a long time since you've come. I've been thinking of you. Are you here to refine pills today?"
Han Wei nodded with a cold expression.
The peak master of Fire Spirit Peak, this middle-aged Core Formation cultivator, was surnamed Mo. Elder Mo immediately gave Han Wei a jade token. On the jade token, the front was written with the character "甲" (jia), and the back with the character "二" (er).
Fire Spirit Peak has established hundreds of alchemy rooms and weapon-refining rooms, each varying in quality. The closer to the fire vein, the better. These alchemy rooms, starting with the character "甲" (jia), are among the highest quality of all.
Ordinary pills do not require the aid of fire veins; generally, only high-grade pills need the power of fire veins. Of course, even for ordinary pills, having fire veins can greatly improve the efficiency of pill production.
Therefore, the disciples like to come here to refine pills. However, to use the pill refining room and weapon forging room here, one must donate a sum of spirit stones.
As the sect leader's eldest disciple, no one dared to accept Song Xuan's spirit stones.
After taking the token, Han Wei walked inside. As she walked down the long corridor, the disciples she encountered all bowed respectfully from a distance.
Han Wei passed through a door, and a wave of heat hit her. She walked to a rising and falling array, stood on the semi-transparent array, put her hands behind her back, and let the array descend into the depths of the ground.
The lower she went, the higher the temperature became. Han Wei endured the scorching heat while maintaining a calm demeanor. The area where Room A was located felt so hot it seemed like it could set Han Wei on fire.
However, Han Wei endured it. After entering the alchemy room number two, she closed the door and immediately summoned the Mystic Bell for protection.
"It's so hot!" Han Wei fanned herself with her hand as soon as she came in.
Having just disguised himself as Song Xuan, he didn't dare to use his magic to protect himself casually. Because once he used his magic to protect himself, the transformation technique would be exposed.
The white-robed man, who had followed Han Wei into the alchemy room, smiled gently as he watched her fan herself with both hands, probably finding her quite adorable.
Han Wei fanned herself and looked around the alchemy room.
In the center of the alchemy room floated a large alchemy furnace, ten zhang tall, covered with many ferocious beast patterns. Below the furnace was a red-glowing array, which was partially activated, and below that was a huge pool of lava.
Flames rose from the lava pool, which occasionally boiled. As the daughter of the previous sect leader, A-Yue knew that this place was heavily guarded. This top-tier alchemy room was connected to the fire vein and could directly draw power from it.
If she were to blow up this alchemy furnace, it would trigger a chain reaction of explosions along with the fire veins. Just thinking about that scene is incredibly exciting.
Without hesitation, Han Wei immediately got to work.
Destroying this alchemy furnace would be difficult for others, but for Han Wei, it was simply a matter of modifying the runes of the magic array below and then attaching an explosive talisman.
Han Wei was rapidly casting spells, altering the runes, and was about to attach the explosion talisman to the alchemy furnace when she suddenly heard a burst of laughter.
Han Wei was horrified.
"Who?" Han Wei turned around, her face pale.
There was no one behind him.
Where?
Han Wei's eyes widened as a blurry figure gradually came into view.
A handsome stranger, dressed in pristine white, looked at her with a smile. She met his golden eyes and seemed to see a shower of pear blossoms like snow. After a brief moment of disorientation, she quickly regained her composure.
Han Wei took a step back, feigning composure:
"Who is this master, senior? Why have you infiltrated my Qingyun Sect?"
"Hehe, I just happened to pass by and saw a little girl disguised as someone else swindling and cheating people in the Qingyun Sect. I found it quite amusing," the man in white laughed.
Han Wei's heart sank to the bottom. How long had he been following her? He knew everything.
