Chapter 200

Chapter 199 Where do you live?

Earthfire Zone, Dan Tower.

Xu Changqing came here again. Since the security guards all recognized him, he didn’t need to wait for a guarantor. He registered his information and went inside.

The internal alchemy tasting ceremony has ended, and the place has returned to its usual tranquility.

Occasionally, one might spot an alchemist, but they always seemed to be in a hurry.

The journey was smooth and Xu Changqing arrived at 97 without any obstacles.

It is Yu Caiqing’s private alchemy room, number seven on the ninth underground floor.

The heavy stone door was tightly shut, and no sound could be heard from inside.

Xu Changqing flicked his wrist, and Yu Caiqing’s communication talisman appeared.

As the wood elemental power was infused into it, a faint spiritual light began to flicker.

A full minute passed, and Yu Caiqing still hadn’t answered.

This made Xu Changqing somewhat worried.

Could it be that something happened inside?

Filled with doubt and skepticism, he tried again.

This time, the connection was finally established after ten breaths.

A weary voice came from the other end of the line from Yu Caiqing.

“Hello?”

“Senior Sister Yu, I’ve come as promised!”

“Okay, I understand, please wait a moment.”

Xu Changqing breathed a sigh of relief as he put down the other party’s communication token.

It seems my worries were unnecessary.

I reckon Senior Sister Yu didn’t notice it just now.

After a while, the heavy stone door slowly opened.

Immediately afterwards, a thick cloud of hot steam billowed out from within.

This wasn’t the first time Xu Changqing had witnessed this scene; it was the same whenever someone was refining pills, so he didn’t pay any attention and simply walked in.

But halfway there, the originally scorching temperature suddenly turned into a chilling cold, which spread throughout my body in an instant, as if it were freezing my body.

“What’s going on?” Xu Changqing’s expression changed slightly.

The hot fog met the cold air and instantly turned into raindrops.

It started to fall, tick-tock.

At first glance, it sounds like rain.

Fortunately, the fog finally dissipated.

Taking this opportunity, Xu Changqing got a clear look at the situation in front of him.

The orange fire was burning fiercely, like a restless fire serpent.

The Xuanming Cauldron above was covered with a layer of glistening frost.

As for Yu Caiqing beside her, she looked quite weak, and her eyes were slightly dim.

Even so, she still maintained the Xuanming Cauldron and the Earth Fire.

Xu Changqing approached cautiously and asked in a low voice, “Senior Sister, are you alright?”

After a long while, Yu Caiqing said in a muffled voice, “I won’t die.”

“Huh?” Xu Changqing was stunned.

Yu Caiqing took a breath and continued, “I have not rested for six days and six nights in order to refine this batch of Yin-Yang Intertwined Pills.”

Feeling hungry? Time for a Laozhuang pill.

Feeling sleepy? Take a waking pill.

As for the Qilingdan, it was eaten like food.

Xu Changqing’s eyes widened: “Is it that hard?”

Yu Caiqing frowned slightly: “You can just watch from the side.”

Xu Changqing thought for a moment and then asked, “Then… when do you take a break?”

Yu Caiqing frowned and said, “What does it have to do with you whether I take a break or not?”

As Xu Changqing explained with a smile, he took something out of his pocket: “It’s like this, I specially prepared some spiritual food…”

“I simply… um?” Yu Caiqing was in a bad mood, so her attitude was a bit poor. She wanted to vent her anger, but she was attracted by a fragrance and was stunned.

“This is Sichuan peppercorn-flavored braised pork ribs with rice!”

“This is a Spirit Pepper Beast Meat Egg Roll!”

“This is a sweet rice wine with egg drop soup!”

“This is……”

Xu Changqing pulled out six dishes in one go, all of them fresh, fragrant and delicious.

Yu Caiqing stared, her eyes wide, and couldn’t help but lick her lips: “You did all of this?”

Xu Changqing nodded: “Yes, I made them all myself.”

Yu Caiqing’s neck immediately turned red, her cheeks burned, and she felt extremely ashamed.

Someone kindly cooked her a delicious meal, and she responded with such a terrible attitude.

Ordinary food would not even be glanced at, but this is spiritual food.

Not only is it delicious, but it also contains all sorts of amazing effects.

Xu Changqing was surprised to see the other person suddenly fall silent: “Don’t you like it?”

Yu Caiqing said in a voice barely louder than a mosquito’s buzz, “It’s…it’s alright!”

However, we are currently at a crucial stage in refining the Yin-Yang Intertwining Pill.

You can’t be distracted, you can’t rest.

Therefore, no matter how tempting the spiritual food may be.

She remained steadfast in her resolve and continued refining the elixir, not daring to let her guard down.

He kept repeating to himself, “It’ll be soon, it’ll be soon!”

Xu Changqing stopped speaking and watched silently.

As time ticked by, the battle between the Xuanming Cauldron and the Earth Fire intensified.

This Yin-Yang Intertwined Pill is no ordinary pill; it contains both Yin and Yang energies.

Taking it can harmonize the Yin and Yang in the body, allowing the body to return to the initial stage, similar to that of a fetus.

Yu Caiqing’s purpose in refining this pill was to break free from her own limitations.

Once successful, you can then try for the Golden Elixir.

She didn’t care about either her character or her personality.

Any Golden Elixir will do.

Whew~

Hiss~

The intense heat of the earth fire and the chilling cold of the Xuanming Cauldron alternated.

Faced with this situation, even Xu Changqing, who was in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage and possessed two kinds of spiritual roots, was finding it difficult to withstand.

It’s easy to imagine how distressed Yu Caiqing, who was closest to the victim.

But she persisted.

Buzz!

Buzz!

Just then, the Xuanming Cauldron roared and then shook violently.

The two people in the alchemy room were stunned by this sudden turn of events.

With a loud boom, the lid of the Xuanming Cauldron soared into the air, and the Yin and Yang energies inside completely spiraled out of control in that instant.

My dear reader, there’s more to reading—even more exciting content awaits!

The Xuanming Cauldron resonated with the Yin energy, unleashing a surging cold wave that instantly froze even the earth fire that was originally resisting it.

Immediately afterwards, the ground and walls were covered with a layer of frost at a speed visible to the n*ked eye.

Seeing that Yu Caiqing was not moving, Xu Changqing ignored the spirit food, rushed behind her, grabbed her and ran towards the door of the alchemy room.

Fortunately, this loss of control of Yin and Yang only affected the Xuanming Cauldron and the area around the earth fire, and did not spread to the entire alchemy room.

However, it seems that this alchemy room is now abandoned.

Xu Changqing led Yu Caiqing to the door and immediately triggered the mechanism button on the wall, and the heavy stone door slowly opened.

What just happened?

“I reckon it exploded!”

“Ordinary pills shouldn’t cause such a commotion!”

After the two came out, they found several alchemists looking in their direction.

Xu Changqing asked with concern, “Senior Sister, are you alright?”

Yu Caiqing appeared distraught, muttering to herself, “Failed?”

It’s a complete failure?

It just failed so suddenly?

Everything was normal just now!

They’ve already lasted six days and six nights!

“Senior Sister Yu!” Xu Changqing grabbed her frail and cold shoulders and shook her violently.

At this moment, Yu Caiqing finally came to her senses. She stared blankly at her business partner in front of her, and then turned her head without saying a word to look into the alchemy room.

As expected, the oven exploded.

The Xuanming Cauldron was completely destroyed.

The repair time will be at least one month.

In an instant, two streams of tears flowed down Yu Caiqing’s cheeks.

Xu Changqing gently comforted her, “Senior sister, it’s just one failure. I have the materials. Let’s rest for a while and then continue.”

Yu Caiqing shook her head: “You don’t understand. The reason why this alchemy failed was not just due to a lack of experience and skills.”

Xu Changqing was very curious: “What do you mean?”

Yu Caiqing took a deep breath: “It should be related to my spiritual root.”

“Spiritual root?” Xu Changqing was quite surprised.

Yu Caiqing said sadly, “I originally had dual spiritual roots of water and fire, but when I was young, I accidentally touched this ice hairpin on my head, and then my water spiritual root mutated into an ice-water spiritual root.”

That’s why he wasn’t accepted as a core disciple!

Xu Changqing still didn’t understand: “But what does this have to do with the failure of alchemy?”

Yu Caiqing explained, “The Yin-Yang Intertwining Pill is unlike other pills. It requires a balance of Yin and Yang. If either side is too strong or too weak, it won’t work.”

Xu Changqing suddenly realized: “So that means your fire elemental root is being suppressed by your ice and water elemental root.”

Yu Caiqing nodded: “Yes.”

Xu Changqing pondered, “There must be a solution, right?”

Yu Caiqing pulled the ice hairpin off her head and stared at it with a complicated look in her eyes: “I originally hoped that it could speed up the mutation of the water spirit root, but now it seems that it will take a long time. Perhaps, I will have to find some rare and precious materials.”

Rare and precious materials?

Upon hearing this, Xu Changqing took out the Ice Soul Pearl: “Is this what Senior Sister is talking about?”

“You…” Yu Caiqing was dumbfounded upon seeing this.

Xu Changqing casually made up an excuse: “This is something I acquired by chance. If you need it, I’ll sell it to you at the current market price.”

Yu Caiqing gazed at the Ice Soul Pearl, which emitted a mesmerizing blue light, and suddenly smiled: “You really are my lucky star!”

Then, she took out a pile of mid-grade spirit stones.

How many?

A full five hundred!

Xu Changqing’s eyes were dazzled: “Senior sister, you are so rich and beautiful!”

Yu Caiqing took the Ice Soul Pearl in her hand and waved her hand: “With this one, I don’t need to look for it outside. Of course, I’ll give you more.”

Xu Changqing immediately patted his chest and said, “From now on, my senior sister’s affairs are my affairs.”

Yu Caiqing’s almond-shaped eyes were bright and alluring, like dewdrops in the spring mist. She asked softly, “Where do you live?”
