Chapter 92: Spirit-Transforming Pill! Taboo Pill that Affects the Soul!

"Based on the reflection of the previous fireball, the reflection of this sealing array is equivalent to the reflection of light in a mirror..."

Xiao Ze muttered to himself, unfolding his Purple Cloud Wings behind him, floating in mid-air.

Around him, substantial flames burned fiercely, shaped into long spears of flame under the molding of his soul perception!

From top to bottom, these long spears of flame shot diagonally at the sealing array!

Facing such fierce and dense attacks, the faint light on the sealing array also flickered frequently.

Reflecting these long spears of flame into the valley.

Xiao Ze chose angles that would allow these long spears of flame to be accurately reflected onto the ground of the valley without being reflected back towards him.

This way, he wouldn't have to dodge the reflected attacks frequently.

The thunderous roar of the exploding long spears of flame echoed in the valley, but Xiao Ze paid no attention, continuously condensing new long spears of flame and shooting them at the sealing array.

He refused to believe that this feeble sealing array could defy the heavens!

The power of the long spears of flame was not strong, and it could only deal with low-level cultivators.

But Xiao Ze's plan was to deplete the energy of the sealing array.

With the ability to condense long spears of flame like this, he could continue for three days and three nights without rest.

The amount of Dou Qi consumed was not even as much as when he used the flying Dou Technique, Purple Cloud Wings.

As the faint light on the sealing array dimmed even further, Xiao Ze's anticipation grew.

What heavenly treasures were hidden within this relic that warranted such a powerful sealing array?

Surely it wouldn't be the case that after painstakingly setting up such a powerful sealing array, the only thing inside was a note saying "Just kidding," right?

Crack!

Amidst the violent explosion, a crisp sound rang out faintly.

However, Xiao Ze, being extremely sensitive, immediately noticed it.

He immediately halted the attack of the long spears of flame.

Sure enough, the sealing array had shattered, revealing an entrance.

After some consideration, Xiao Ze dispersed the long spears of flame around him, transforming their shapes into a fire dragon surging toward the entrance.

Xiao Ze followed closely behind, with the fiery light of the fire dragon illuminating the interior of the relic.

After delving a hundred or two hundred meters into the relic, Xiao Ze finally saw the main structure.

It was a massive palace.

The palace was entirely cast from bronze, seamless and flawless.

It seemed as though it had been directly forged into a palace by a powerful individual, rather than being constructed step by step.

"This is quite interesting. It seems to be the work of an alchemist..."

"To cast bronze of mountain-like size with powerful flames and then forge it into this bronze palace under the molding of soul perception."

Seeing the bronze palace, Xiao Ze became more certain that this was the relic of an alchemist.

After groping around the entrance for a moment, Xiao Ze looked at the unknown bronze beast heads on the two doors and, after some thought, took out two third-grade magic cores of the same attribute.

He placed them in the mouths of the bronze beasts.

Immediately, as if they had a source of energy, the bronze beasts' eyes suddenly emitted light.

"So this alchemist also dabbled in mechanisms..."

Xiao Ze remarked casually as he tapped a few places on the door, causing the bronze doors to open on their own with a rumble.

"Good thing I know a bit about mechanisms."

As soon as the bronze doors revealed a crack, Xiao Ze felt a wave of decayed air rushing toward him, forcing him to retreat dozens of meters.

Xiao Ze furrowed his brows slightly, realizing that he didn't have much hope anymore.

After all, judging from the decayed air, Xiao Ze already knew that this was probably a relic left over from ancient times.

Even if there were any good things inside, they would likely have decayed beyond recognition under the erosion of time.

It should be noted that the most valuable thing in an alchemist's relic is, of course, the pills!

"I hope to find some pill formulas in there."

Xiao Ze let the fire dragon roam around the bronze door, dispersing the decaying air to some extent.

As his soul perception entered, after a while, Xiao Ze shook his head, realizing that he shouldn't hold much hope.

He went straight to the center of the bronze palace.

Most of the items elsewhere had already been eroded by time, leaving only a few valuable things here.

Between the tables and chairs lay some scattered bones, presumably the owner of this bronze palace.

Among the scattered bones, Xiao Ze picked up a scroll and a jade bottle.

Of course, among the bones, he also found a storage ring.

However, this storage ring had long been shattered and was no longer usable.

Xiao Ze unfurled the scroll and lightly touched his finger on it, allowing his soul perception to read the information on it.

"Hiss!"

Halfway through reading, Xiao Ze moved his hand away from the scroll.

With some shock, he looked at the scattered bones before him.

Just as Xiao Ze had anticipated, the owner of this place was indeed an alchemist, and he was an ancient alchemist at that.

He detailed his life on the scroll, as well as something that made him incredibly proud.

That is, he succeeded in creating the Spirit-Transforming Pill!

A pill that could change one's innate attributes—a forbidden pill!

This ancient alchemist had a grand dream: to mass-produce alchemists!

But on the Dou Qi continent, people's attributes are determined by their souls.

Generally speaking, a person's soul can only have one attribute!

But nothing is absolute. Among the billions of people, there are always some whose souls mutate, allowing them to naturally possess two attributes!

Therefore, it was predetermined whether one could become an alchemist!

However, this ancient alchemist disagreed!

Through his painstaking research, he finally succeeded in creating a pill called the Spirit-Transforming Pill.

The Spirit-Transforming Pill could change a person's soul, thereby changing their body's attributes!

It allowed people to possess attributes conducive to becoming alchemists, namely, the fire and wood attributes!

Xiao Ze couldn't help but look at the jade bottle, which indeed bore the words "Spirit-Transforming Pill"!

But Xiao Ze didn't hold much hope, because there was no fluctuation of pills left in the jade bottle.

Simply being able to smell a faint scent of pills mixed with decay upon opening it was already considered lucky.

Xiao Ze wasn't too disappointed about this.

Because the appearance of the Spirit-Transforming Pill allowed him to showcase his alchemy skills in front of Xue Xun'er and Little Doctor Immortal openly and honestly!

"Speaking of which, why didn't the terrifying efficacy of the Spirit-Transforming Pill, which can change the soul, pass down?"

"If it had been passed down, alchemists probably wouldn't be so rare now; everyone would be able to become an alchemist!"

Xiao Ze knew that the reason probably lay in the latter half of the scroll!

He placed his finger back on the scroll, allowing his soul perception to finish reading the remaining part.

Only after reading it did Xiao Ze shake his head regretfully.

Looking at the scattered bones, his eyes were full of shock, and he couldn't help but say, "What a crazy guy!"

Indeed, the Spirit-Transforming Pill did exist!

The efficacy of the Spirit-Transforming Pill could indeed give a person the fire and wood attributes of an alchemist.

But the problem lay in the fact that the main ingredient of the Spirit-Transforming Pill was the soul of an alchemist!

That's right!

This ancient alchemist had gone so far as to use the souls of other alchemists as ingredients, throwing them into the pill cauldron to refine pills!

It was precisely because of such insanely mad behavior that he succeeded in creating the forbidden pill—the Spirit-Transforming Pill!

But what surprised Xiao Ze was that this alchemist did not die from being besieged by other alchemists.

He died from... suicide!
