Xu Yi naturally recognizes Qi Ming. At the auction of the Linglong Pavilion, the first Ginseng Baby to be auctioned was bought by Qi Ming.

At that time, Qi Ming pulled down his black robe, revealed his true face, and said, this Ginseng Baby, he bought it for the purpose of testing Divine Essence Pill. Only then did he cut off other people from competing with him, and successfully purchased the Ginseng Baby.

At this moment, seeing that it was Qi Ming, Xu Yi, my heart was so happy that it almost exploded.

No guarantee from anyone is as convincing as the guarantee from Qi Ming, one of the three Pill Kings of the Pill Cauldron Sect in front of me.

"Pill Cauldron Sect is a famous name. Who knows? The three great Pill King are the ones Guang'an all warriors admire. I recognize Elder Qi. What's so surprising about it!"

Xu Yi suppressed his excitement and gave a convincing reason, but deliberately ignored the part about the auction.

Qi Ming said, "In this case, we can save a lot of words. I am hiding my whereabouts this time and inviting you to come, but I have something to ask for..."

Then, Qi Ming told some jaw-dropping cause and effect.

It turned out that Qi Ming bought back Ginseng Baby, and the main materials needed to refine Divine Essence Pill were already prepared. At that moment, he went into seclusion to refine the elixir.

Qi Ming has been immersed in Pill Arts for more than fifty years, and his alchemy skills have already reached a perfect level. Before refining Divine Essence Pill, he had practiced countless times, and he thought it was foolproof before starting the furnace.

Who knew that during this retreat, Divine Essence Pill refined dozens of furnaces, but all of them were waste elixirs, and not a single one became an elixir.

Suffering such a heavy blow, Qi Ming almost collapsed. He was thinking hard and had no solution, so he read through the ancient books in order to get some inspiration.

Unexpectedly, this reading actually allowed him to discover some knowledge. The exquisite insights about the Pill Cauldron furnace in the article "On Cauldrons" opened his eyes.

He suddenly realized that there was something wrong. It was not that Pill Arts was not good enough, it was not that Precious Medicine was different. I am afraid that the quality of the cauldron he used to make alchemy was not good enough.

To figure this out, he faced another difficulty. As a Pill Cauldron Sect three Great Elder, with a reputation of Pill King from the outside world, the quality of the Pill Furnace he used could not be worse.

However, the Pill Furnace in such good condition was still not enough, so he asked where to find a furnace.

Just when he was bored and flipping through the book, he suddenly realized that if he quickly flipped through the book "On Cauldrons", he could see a faint golden thread flashing through it.

This strange discovery aroused his interest. After studying for a while, he figured out that it turned out that there was a faintly written word in gold hidden in every book. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't find it at all.

And if you turn the pages quickly, the light gold on each page will connect into a line, which is eye-catching.

After getting this strange result, Qi Ming excerpted the pale gold characters, and it turned out to be a text. To be precise, it was a letter, a letter left by the Pill Cauldron Sect Supreme Elder two hundred years ago.

The letter tells that after his death, he will be buried somewhere, and the treasures he has accumulated over the years will be left to be discovered by those who can discover <On Cauldrons>'s abnormality. This is called the treasure of the Heavenly Sect given to those who are destined to do so.

Of course, although the causes and effects are complicated, Qi Ming did not tell Xu Yi in such detail, but briefly told him that when he refined Divine Essence Pill, he only lacked a high-quality cauldron. After all the hard work, he finally confirmed that there was a cauldron of excellent quality buried in a certain cemetery. If he took it out, Divine Essence Pill would surely become it.

Even though it was a brief description, Xu Yi was dumbfounded and said after a while, "This is too bizarre. Can Elder Qi be sure that there is really an excellent cauldron in the tomb? Just imagine, if that person has a tomb, it must be built by future generations. Since the inheritance is still there, why doesn't that person give the treasure to his descendants? Why should he take it into the tomb?"

Elder Qi was startled, remembering the rumors that this person was from the countryside, and had only been in the city for less than ten months, so he understood. He immediately said, "Steward Xu doesn't know something. Warriors value treasures. Some treasures have been with their masters for decades, and they have developed feelings for them. Even if they die, they are more willing to use them." The treasures were buried with them. Most of those who had this thought dug their own graves. When their life span was about to end, they closed the graves and passed away. Throughout the ages, the number of predecessors who did this was like the crucian carp crossing the river. This led to the trend of tomb robbing in the world. They often dug up a monk's tomb and obtained a huge treasure. Whether it was for sale or for personal use, they could enjoy it for a lifetime."

Xu Yi really didn't know that such a thing happened. As soon as Qi Ming said it, he came back to his senses.

The secret book on the theory of circles was not only dug out from the tomb by those two guys, but also the books <Overlord Strength Art> and Master Zhou were vaguely said to be obtained from secret places. Judging from the hundreds of years of history of this book, I am afraid they were also dug out from the tomb.

It can be seen that there is a heavy treasure hidden in the tomb!

In an instant, Xu Yi's greed was aroused, not to mention, there was Divine Essence Pill that he had to worry about.

However, although he is greedy, he is not irrational. When some questions are not solved, Xu Yi will not place a bet easily.

But listen to what he said, "Since there is treasure hidden in the tomb, why didn't the elder just get it for himself? Why did he come to look for Xu?"

Elder Qi said, "I knew that Steward Xu would have doubts. I will tell you everything I know. I came to look for Steward Xu because Steward Xu Martial Arts is extraordinary. No one dares to guarantee that there is no danger in the tomb. I am even more worried about digging the grave." On this occasion, I encountered an unexpected situation and was traveling back and forth in the city, fearing a sudden change. To be honest, I am aiming for Dao of Alchemy, Martial Arts is humble, and I can barely practice to the realm of Body Tempering Peak. If I were to break into the tomb alone, I might never come back."

Xu Yi said, "The elder is Pill Cauldron Sect Pill King. How can the dignified Pill Cauldron Sect not even be as powerful as Qi Sea Realm, with the status of an elder, if you call me casually, there must be people who are willing to do the hard work. Even if it is not convenient to entrust it to the people in the sect, please invite other Qi Sea Realm strong people, I believe that just because of the status of the elder, there will be many people who will respond."

Elder Qi said, "You are right. It is indeed inconvenient for Qi to entrust people in the sect. The reason is very simple. People with the same path are often rivals. The cauldron in the tomb is useful to Qi, and it must be useful to others in the sect. To outsiders, it is useless. Therefore, Qi does not seek from within, but seeks from the outside. As for why he did not choose the strong Qi Sea Realm, it is because there are taboos in the tomb, and it may be difficult for the strong Qi Sea Realm to enter."

"Then why Xu? Is it just because of the reputation Xu has gained in Guang'an these days?" Xu Yi picked up the tea in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.

This was a very good sign. Elder Qi smiled and refilled his glass, "You Martial Arts are absolutely stunning, sweeping Body Tempering Realm, which is naturally the main reason why I picked you. In addition, there is another indispensable reason. The outside world They all say that you Steward Xu are ruthless and domineering, but I don't see it that way. On the contrary, I am repaying your kindness, knowing what you have done, and being righteous. You are a hero. The old fisherman has treated you with sincerity, and you have repaid me with sincerity. I have also treated you with sincerity, so why worry about you not repaying me with sincerity."
