Seeing Xiao Huohuo's firm attitude, Ye QingChen sighed to himself.
Why bother?
He could have just learned from the old man in the ring.
Yet, she had to find him, this cheap master, to teach her.
"You forced me to do this!"
Ye QingChen's heart hardened.
At this point, there was no other way.
Ye QingChen made up his mind and said softly," Since you have made up your mind, then follow me.
With that, he turned around and left the backyard, heading towards a side room. Xiao Huohuo quickly followed.
After turning a few corners, Ye QingChen brought Xiao Huohuo into the kitchen. There were all kinds of pots and pans inside.
There were also all kinds of fresh fruits, vegetables, and medicine. These were all picked by Ye QingChen from his own garden.
"Master, what are you doing?" Xiao Huohuo blinked his eyes and was at a loss for a moment.
"Watch carefully, I'll only practice once.”
"Whether or not you can comprehend it completely depends on yourself.”
Ye QingChen took a deep breath and spoke in a low voice.
These two days, he did not idle either. He collected some medicinal pill formulas from all over the place.
After experimenting, he had grasped some of the refining methods. Right now, he could only try his best.
"Yes, Master!"
Xiao Huohuo saw his master's serious expression and knew that this was not a joke. He hurriedly nodded and replied.
The expression on his face became abnormally focused, and his pitch-black eyes stared unblinkingly.
" Figs, Scorching Heart Grass, Purple Vine…"
Ye QingChen muttered as he picked out the materials he needed.
"Could it be that Senior wants to concoct the Face Preserving Pill?”
Inside the ring, Zhou Yuanshan had some guesses after seeing the materials Ye QingChen had chosen.
"Elder Zhou, what is a Face Preserving Pill?"
Xiao Huohuo asked in his mind as he watched his master's actions.
"The Youth Retaining Pill is a common pill in the cultivation world. It has always been favored by women and has the effect of retaining one's youth and nourishing one's appearance.
According to the grade of the pill, the amount of time one could maintain their appearance would be different.”
"3-20 years is a low grade spirit pill.”
"20-50 years is a middle-grade spirit pill.”
"50-200 years is a high-grade spirit pill.”
"200-500 years is a top-grade spirit pill.”
…
"As for the most high-grade Agera-retaining Pill, it's almost like an immortal pill. No matter who consumes it, they will remain young forever.”
Elder Zhou explained in detail.
"Then Elder Zhou, can you refine the most high-grade Face Preserving Pill?”Xiao Huohuo asked curiously.
"You think too highly of me." Elder Zhou smiled bitterly.
"Pills are divided into five levels: immortal pills, mystic dao, treasure pills, spirit pills, and ordinary nourishing pills.”
"With my abilities, I can only concoct Treasure Pills at most.”
"This old man has roamed the continent for more than a thousand years, but I've never seen the highest grade of Agera-Preserving Pills.”
"That's why I suspect that it's just a legend.”
" I see…" Xiao Huohuo nodded thoughtfully.
"I wonder what level of Face Preserving Pill Master refined today. It's at least a Treasure Pill or above.”
He thought to himself.
On the other side, Ye QingChen had already completed the preparation steps. The fire on the stove had already been raised, and the iron pot was filled with hot oil, emitting steam.
Could it be that Master wanted to use the iron pot to refine pills?
Looking at his master holding the big pot as if it was a serious matter, Xiao Huohuo couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous.
Although he had never learned alchemy before.
However, he also knew that refining pills required a medicinal cauldron at the very least.
" Elder Zhou, why didn't Master even use the cauldron…" Xiao Huohuo asked in his mind.
"Be quiet, let's see how Senior will do it.”Elder Zhou's expression was a little solemn.
In his eyes, the current Ye QingChen was dressed in green robes, exuding an ethereal aura. His handsome face was filled with concentration.
He was no longer as restrained as usual. Countless Dao runes circulated on his body, and Dharma and Logos interweaved. He could vaguely hear the sound of the Great Dao, as if it was explaining the truth of heaven and earth.
He knew that this senior was imparting the true Dao of the Dan family, so he did not dare to be distracted for a moment.
When the oil was almost ready, Ye QingChen squeezed out the juice of the herbs and placed them in a certain order. Then, he stirred them twice with a spoon and finally covered the lid.
"Alright, the next step is to wait for the medicine to gradually mix.”
After completing all the steps, Ye QingChen heaved a sigh of relief.
He looked up inadvertently and saw Xiao Huohuo staring at him with a dumbfounded expression, as if he was stunned by his actions.
"Cough cough…"
Ye QingChen coughed dryly," This is called the Big Pot Stewing Pill Refining Technique. With your current level, it might be very difficult for you to understand, but you will understand in the future.”
He explained calmly.
Calm down and don't panic.
As long as I'm confident, he'll definitely come up with something.
With the previous experience, Ye QingChen kept consoling himself in his heart.
This pill will probably take another hour. You wait here, I'll go rest for a while.
As the sound of his voice faded, Ye QingChen quickly left.
If he stayed for too long, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold it in.
"Yes, Master."
After respectfully sending Ye QingChen off, Xiao Huohuo began to converse with Elder Zhou.
"Elder Zhou, why can't I understand Master's actions?”
"Also, can you really refine the Face Preserving Pill like this?”
"Yes, definitely."
Zhou Yuanshan gave him an affirmative answer.
"I think I understand what Ye qian bei means.”
Zhou Yuanshan let out a long breath and said slowly.
Seeing Xiao Huohuo pricking up his ears and looking confused, Zhou Yuanshan smiled and continued to explain,"
"Before Senior left, he said that with your level, you will understand in the future.”
"The meaning behind his words is very obvious. In fact, his actions were not for you to see, but for me to see.”
"Clearly, Senior has long seen through our thoughts. It's just that he didn't point it out.”
"I see."
Xiao Huohuo finally understood.
"Then why didn't Master use the medicinal cauldron and use this big pot instead? It can't be to the extent of saying that this pot is better than the medicinal cauldron, right?”
Xiao Huohuo couldn't help but ask as another doubt surfaced in his heart.
