Peerless Taoist

From the lid of the pill furnace, the black smoke rose and gathered above the pill furnace. More and more black smoke gathered and a faint burnt smell drifted out from within.    

This was not a good sign.    

Generally speaking, when the medicine was about to be refined, it would emit waves of sweet fragrance.    

Even if there was no fragrance, there was still some medicinal fragrance. The appearance of such a burnt smell could only mean that the medicine might have failed in its refinement.    

A layer of cold sweat appeared on Hall Master Zhang's forehead. His brows were tightly knitted, as if he was thinking of a way to deal with it.    

He took out a jade green medicinal herb from the medicinal herbs beside him. After hesitating for a long time, he still did not place the medicinal herb in.    

Seeing that this cauldron of medicine was about to fail, Hall Master Zhang helplessly let out a long sigh.    

Sometimes, failure in the refinement of a medicine was a failure. There was no room for redemption. Continuing to add ingredients into it could only be considered a waste.    

Hall Master Zhang was planning to wait and see the changes.    

Lu Yu had been watching from the sidelines. Seeing this scene, he directly took out a medicinal ingredient and placed it in Hall Master Zhang's hand.    

Hall Master Zhang raised his eyebrows, not understanding what was going on.    

What Lu Yu gave him was just a supplementary ingredient. It would not have any special effects.    

Even if he could save this cauldron of medicine, it would probably be useless.    

"Let's give it a try. It might be useful." Lu Yu said with a calm tone.    

It seemed that Lu Yu's confidence had also affected Hall Master Zhang. He placed the portion of herbs into the furnace.    

It was purely a desperate effort. After all, it was only a portion of supplementary ingredients. He could still use it now.    

Rumble, rumble ~ ~ ~    

A chaotic sound was heard from within the pill furnace, and the black gas that was floating in the air was finally released. The entire tent was filled with a burnt smell.    

"Ai - -"    

Hall Master Zhang let out a long sigh. He then looked at Lu Yu and said, "It's a joke to let Prefecture Overseer see me. I am not good at learning, so these medicines still have a high failure rate."    

"Hall Master Zhang is being modest. I can see that your alchemy skills already have the demeanor of a master. It should be a master from a prestigious family. Our Spirit Province is a small place to begin with, and you were able to make your move in a moment of crisis. This is already a great help to me" Lu Yu said while cupping his hands.    

What he said was the truth.    

In the Yellow Millet Dream World, Lu Yu did not have the strength to crush everything in the outside world. He had to rely on other assistance to get through this crisis.    

Although he knew that these people in front of him were all fake, the most magical thing about the Yellow Millet Dream was that it was as real as an illusion.    

Hall Master Zhang let out a long sigh and said, "Spirit Province is my hometown. This place has all my memories. I will not tolerate the destruction of this place. "    

As he spoke, Hall Master Zhang's tired eyes were filled with determination.    

This was the obsession of a generation of cultivators!    

In order to protect his hometown, he would rather do anything.    

Cultivators of the Middle Ages paid particular attention to transcendence, that is, cultivation is the way of becoming a monk. After that, they would return to the mortal world and never ask about worldly matters.    

However, as long as one was a person, how could they possibly forget their own mortal world?    

Emperor Gao, who had founded Great Yu's imperial court in the past, had said frankly that he had seen some cultivators who pursued immortality. They went into secluded cultivation, or went to seek treasures of the heaven and earth, and called it the pursuit of immortality. However, he did not even care about the death of his parents. He did not even blink when he heard that his children were being bullied. Such a cultivator, even if he became an immortal, he would still be a ruthless and heartless person.
