The moment the Danding Peak Master saw the Myriad Dao Glazed Furnace, his eyes blazed with light. He snatched it up and began examining it closely.
His calloused hands gently stroked the furnace, as tenderly as if he were caressing a lover's skin.
"You little rascal!"
The Danding Peak Master suddenly looked up, excitement shining in his eyes. "Where did you get this furnace? It's clearly a replica of the Glazed Sect's supreme treasure from the Primordial era!"
"Your eyes are sharp as torches, Ancestor. I paid a hefty price for it at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion."
Li Yunjing chuckled. "I upgraded it three times myself, but my cultivation was too low to raise it to the peak of the third tier. That's why I wanted to ask for your help, Ancestor."
"You..."
The Danding Peak Master snorted. "It seems you really have decided to treat me as your pack mule today."
"Heh!"
Li Yunjing gave a dry chuckle and said nothing.
Taking out the Myriad Dao Glazed Furnace had been a spur-of-the-moment decision. He had already troubled the Danding Peak Master once, so what was one more time?
This man was a grandmaster of alchemy, after all!
Beyond his mastery of pill refinement, his knowledge of pill furnaces surely far surpassed that of ordinary artifact-refining grandmasters.
To improve his efficiency, Li Yunjing naturally swallowed his pride and asked for help.
"I'll give it a try!"
Faced with Li Yunjing's shamelessness, the Danding Peak Master could only smile wryly and turn the Myriad Dao Glazed Furnace over and over as he inspected it.
A quarter of an hour later, he suddenly frowned. "You upgraded this furnace three times, and its structure has changed from the original. There seem to be conflicting elements within it. No wonder you came to me!"
