Chapter 122: Illusory Figure, Mantle Inheritance Needs to be Tested
"Beast, don't move!" Wang Yan saw that after the beast finished reading the words engraved on the alchemy furnace, he had the intention of touching the Nine Turns Heavenly Fire Alchemy Furnace, and shouted decisively to stop the beast's movements.
This cave was too weird, and Wang Yan was worried that the alchemy furnace had been set up, and once triggered, it was likely to cause disastrous consequences. Walking quickly to the stone platform, Wang Yan took the beast back into his arms, and took a few steps back, away from the Nine Turns Heavenly Fire Alchemy Furnace, and then began to look at this alchemy furnace carefully.
I saw that this alchemy furnace was the size of a wooden basin for washing face, the furnace was about one foot high, and the overall color was black and red, simple and vicissitudes. The four big characters of "Nine Turns of Heavenly Fire" are engraved on the four sides of the furnace body, and the four carved lifelike dragons are each wrapped around a word, the dragon's mouth is open to the font, and the remaining empty space on the surface of the furnace body is carved with many herbs, Wang Yan has distinguished for a long time, but only recognizes four or five of them.
The three legs that support the furnace body are also in the shape of a dragon. Different from the other three-legged objects that Wang Yan usually saw, these three-legged objects were not upright or outward, but rather strangely flipped inward, and the dragon head was raised high towards the bottom of the furnace, also with its mouth wide open.
On the lid of the furnace at the top of the alchemy furnace, there are still two dragons carved with the dragon bodies intertwined with each other, separated to both sides in half of the place, and the two dragon heads are facing the furnace body, still with their mouths open.
Wang Yan was dumbfounded, it was the first time he had seen such a strangely shaped alchemy furnace, but this was not the most surprising thing for him. Comparatively speaking, spotlessness is the biggest difference between this Nine Turns Heavenly Fire Alchemy Furnace and the surrounding environment.
"Master, isn't it just a Nine Dragons furnace? Are you so cautious and amazed? Seeing that Wang Yan had been cautious throughout, the beast couldn't help but make fun of him.
"Don't talk nonsense. Wang Yan withdrew his gaze from the Nine Heavenly Fire Alchemy Furnace, looked at the beast, and said his feelings: "Don't you think it's strange? The carved patterns of this alchemy furnace are ingenious, and the furnace body is so small, even the alchemy furnaces used by the Dan masters I have seen are much larger than this, not to mention the alchemy furnace used by the Dan disciples to learn alchemy, which is twice as large as the water tank." Besides, how can such an object be placed here alone without making people wonder?"
"Ha Luha, master. Didn't you often say 'concentrate is the essence'? This alchemy furnace should be regarded as a concentrated essence. The beast deliberately broke the atmosphere of being suppressed by this strange environment, and said with a smile: "Obviously, no one has been here for a long time, and from my guess, this should be left here by some alchemist." As for what he didn't take with him when he left. There are many reasons. It is even more likely that when the Dan Master went out to collect medicine, he encountered an accident and never came back here. That's what we see. If we find it now, it should be ours. Master, you might as well first confess the alchemy furnace with blood dripping blood, if the owner of this alchemy furnace is still in the fairy world, it will naturally not succeed, we can leave, if you can successfully recognize the master, then it really belongs to the master. Isn't it a good thing to use this alchemy furnace to learn alchemy? ”
"Beast, that's what I said, but I still don't feel right, in case I ......" Wang Yan was still puzzled, not daring to follow the beast's words.
"Master, when did you become so timid, or you stay away, and the beast will help you drip blood, even if there is danger, the beast will bear it alone. As he spoke, the beast opened his mouth and took a bite on Wang Yan's hand, and after sucking a few drops of his blood, he rushed to the stone platform and sprayed it at the Nine Heavenly Fire Alchemy Furnace.
"Beast, no!" How fast the beast beast's movements were, when Wang Yan reacted, the beast had already sprayed his blood onto the Nine Turns Heavenly Fire Alchemy Furnace, and Wang Yan's action to stop it was useless.
The matter has come to this point, Wang Yan understands that he can only resign himself to fate, whether it is a blessing or a curse, he has to bear it, and it is too late to escape anyway.
Seeing that his blood slowly disappeared and merged into the Nine Turns Heavenly Fire Alchemy Furnace, but nothing unusual happened, Wang Yan did not feel that he had established a connection with the Nine Turns Heavenly Fire Alchemy Furnace, obviously the blood did not succeed in recognizing the master.
"Beast, come back quickly!Let's get out of here quickly!" Wang Yan hurriedly shouted, without a drop of blood to recognize the master, it proved that the owner of this alchemy furnace was still there, if he mistakenly thought that Wang Yan had snatched his alchemy furnace, how could he not hold a grudge. As soon as he thought of this, Wang Yan didn't dare to stay here, he didn't want to be hunted down and killed again.
Of course, the beast also understood, and after receiving Wang Yan's summons, he hurriedly rushed back, and the master and servant turned around and ran along the road they came in, preparing to leave here.
At this moment, an ethereal voice suddenly sounded in the cave, and this voice seemed to come from all directions at the same time, surrounding Wang Yan and the beasts, and at the same time, making them give up their intention to escape.
"Who awakened the old man's immortal consciousness that had been sleeping for many years? The old man's mantle can finally be passed on, not bad! Not bad!" The soft voice was full of relief and joy, and it reached the ears of Wang Yan and the beast.
"Mantle inheritance?" Wang Yan was obviously stunned, this is what the master can only say when he accepts apprentices, is it ......?
At this moment, above the Nine Turns Heavenly Fire Alchemy Furnace, the figure of an old man with a white beard appeared. But this figure is very illusory, Wang Yan can see the scenery behind him through this figure, without the slightest sense of obstruction.
"Young man, you don't have to panic and be afraid. The old man has been waiting for this moment for too long, and you can come here to prove that the fate between us is not shallow. However, if you want to get the old man's inheritance, you have to pass the old man's test, otherwise, the old man can only erase your memory, teleport you out of the city, and wait for the next destined person to inherit the mantle of the old man. The illusory figure of the old man smiled and said something that made Wang Yan happy but headache.
"Lingdan Sect Dan disciple Wang Yan is willing to accept the test of the old gentleman. Wang Yan had a headache, but the illusory figure in front of him was obviously much stronger than the Dan masters he had seen in the Spirit Pill Sect, and the immortal technique that showed this illusory figure alone was not something that those Dan masters could do. Therefore, Wang Yan did not hesitate to choose to accept the test. This is obviously a rare opportunity for him.
"Hehe, I don't even know what I want to test you, so I dare to accept it decisively, and my courage is commendable. The old man's illusory figure was satisfied, and nodded slightly, revealing a hint of approval.
"No matter how the old gentleman tests, Wang Yan will work hard to complete it and never flinch!" Wang Yan said more firmly, the image of the old man reminded him of Grandpa Tao, and he unconsciously felt cordial, as if Grandpa Tao was going to test him at this time.
"Hehe, don't be in a hurry in advance of the test, you first tell me about your life experience, and then test you according to your situation after I understand it clearly. "The illusory old man is not in a hurry, his test varies from person to person, and it is impossible for all destined people to face the same test, which is obviously extremely unfair, and it is very likely to cause mistakes and pass on his mantle to the unsuitable person.
"The old gentleman is willing to listen, and let me speak slowly. Wang Yan imagined the old man as Grandpa Tao, and there was no trace of depression in his heart, so he told his life experience in detail.
"Well, you are not only brave, determined, but also helpful, willing to study, these are extremely valuable advantages, and the most important thing is that you also have an indissoluble bond with medicine, which is indeed suitable to inherit the mantle of the old man. However, you are too weak now, this is a very dangerous thing in the fairy world, you must become strong as soon as possible, otherwise, the old man will pass on the mantle to you, and the old man will not feel at ease. While the illusory old man was satisfied with Wang Yan, he was also a little worried.
"Old man, if you want to pass on the mantle to my master, put him to the test quickly, so what are you going to do? Can you make sure that the others will not be in danger of their lives? If you are too worried, you should not pass it on, and keep your mantle alone. The beast suddenly spoke out without warning, which immediately disturbed the harmonious atmosphere between Wang Yan and the illusory old man, and brought out a feeling of dissatisfaction.
"Beast, don't be rude!" Wang Yan smacked the beast's head fiercely, warning it.
"Don't blame it, it's right, it's the old man who is too worried. As it said, the power of the fairy world and the moment of falling and dying, no one can guarantee that they will be absolutely safe. That's it, since the will of heaven is like this, choose you as the first person to be destined with me, I will test you, as long as you can pass, the old man will pass the mantle to you, as for what you can achieve in the fairy world in the future, it depends on your creation. The illusory old man listened to the words of the beast against him, not only was he not angry, but seemed to be greatly touched.
"Old gentleman..."Wang Yan didn't know what to say, and looked at the illusory old man with his mouth open.
"Hehe, nothing. Get ready, my test is about to begin, don't disappoint me!" the illusory old man regained his previous relieved appearance, reminding Wang Yan to prepare for the test.
"Old man, am I going to be tested alone, or am I going to accept it with my pet beast?" Wang Yan looked at the beast and asked the old man with an illusory figure. Of course, he hoped that the beast would be tested with him, after all, this was the first time he had experienced such a thing, and it was always much better to have the help of the beast.
"Hehe, it's out of the way. You should be willing to bring your pet to the test with you, and it is also a manifestation of your strength. The old man with an illusory figure didn't care, his test was comprehensive and comprehensive, and he also hoped that Wang Yan could use all his skills, because in that way, his test would be more effective, and he could make more accurate judgments.
"In that case, old gentleman, please start the test, I'm ready!" After Wang Yan finished speaking, he concentrated his attention on the test that was about to begin. (To be continued......)
