Ye Haochuan attempts to refine the Metamorphosis Immortal Pill, but struggles to achieve perfection. The Medicine King offers assistance by providing a special flame, but it rapidly depletes Ye Haochuan's energy. As Ye Haochuan is on the verge of refining a perfect pill, an assassin bursts in, enraged that Ye Haochuan killed his brother and intent on assassinating him.

"Come forth, my magical black pot!"

Ye Haochuan supported the operation of the Four Dragons Divine Monarch Cauldron with one hand and summoned the black pot with the other, placing it over his head.

Bang~

The giant sword fell onto the black pot without stirring the slightest ripple.

Under the black pot, Ye Haochuan surprisingly felt not an ounce of pressure.

Oh my goodness, this pot is defying all logic!

Ye Haochuan was secretly overjoyed.

The black pot couldn’t stop attacks from diffusing in from all directions, but direct attacks were, without doubt, completely absorbed, leaving nothing behind.

Baldy was also dumbfounded, staring quizzically at this pitch-black object, his head full of questions.

Since when did the home-cooking iron pot become a defensive magical treasure, and with such great effectiveness?

"It’s impossible, this must be just a coincidence!" Baldy was not willing to trust his eyes and grabbed his broadsword, smashing it down once again.

Bang bang bang~

In a brief instant, countless attacks rained down on the black pot.

The black pot remained poised and composed as usual, absorbing all attacks without exception, while Baldy, striking madly, was dripping with sweat.

So he’s a fool, heaven’s really on my side!

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but relax a bit.

This guy didn’t succeed with a single strike and couldn’t switch tactics, stubbornly going head-to-head with the iron pot — isn’t that foolish?

Yet, some people don’t respond well to praise; just as Ye Haochuan’s thoughts arose, Baldy seemed to read his mind and changed his strategy.

"Your iron pot is indeed formidable, but it can only passively defend; it can’t block other methods." Baldy sneered and reached out to grab the black pot.

Ye Haochuan was taken aback; while the black pot could withstand any strong defense, it lacked offensive capability. This big guy intended to rely on his superior cultivation to snatch it, genuinely pinpointing the black pot’s weakness.

However, Ye Haochuan was not the least bit frightened and instead smiled with interest.

Just as Baldy’s hand was about to touch the black pot, Ye Haochuan swiftly retracted the black pot, raised his right hand and seized Baldy’s hand.

Two grown men suddenly clasped hands, causing Baldy to look straight, glaring at Ye Haochuan with repulsion, almost shouting, "You dead pansy!"

Ye Haochuan felt disgusted too, but he had to endure it for the time being. He moved his mind and, just as Baldy was prepared to smack Ye Haochuan’s head into pulp, Baldy vanished into the air.

"What’s going on?" Baldy suddenly realized his surroundings had changed; instead of being in Ye Haochuan’s room, he found himself on an endless grassland with a pitifully low concentration of flower energy.

He quickly released his divine sense to search the area, discovering that hundreds of kilometers in all directions were this low-growing grassland, with not a single tree, let alone an animal.

An ominous feeling arose in his heart; without hesitation, he chose a direction and flew away rapidly.

After several minutes, a more densely vegetated area appeared in his sight, and he quickly flew into it, finding the flower energy concentration inside was multiple times higher than elsewhere.

His expression did not reveal any relief, and he tensely continued searching, finally discovering a strange bed upon which lay a supremely beautiful woman.

Baldy burst into laughter: "Ye Yichuan, I don’t know what methods you used to throw me here, but this woman is definitely intricately linked to you; I’ll threaten you with her and see if you dare not let me out!"

As he thought this, he reached out to grab the woman’s throat.

But in the next instant, he found his surroundings changed again, returning once more to the endless grassland.

This time, he wasn’t completely alone; instead, there was a pink-necked, peach-cheeked little girl beside him.

The little girl pouted and said, "How dare you plan against sister Rui’er, you big villain!"

Baldy’s face stiffened, and then he flew into a rage.

Initially, he was upset about his plan failing, and now being mocked by a little girl seemingly without cultivation, he couldn’t tolerate it.

"Catching that woman or catching you, it’s all the same; let’s see if Ye Yichuan dares not save you!"

He snorted coldly and was about to grab the little girl.

But the little girl merely pouted without resistance, summoning with a small hand toward the sky, causing a bolt of lightning to descend from the void.

Baldy was startled and hurriedly raised his sword to block.

The lightning wasn’t very powerful, causing him little harm, but no sooner had the first bolt fallen than subsequent strikes rained down endlessly, as if limitless.

Damn, I haven’t done anything disastrously evil all my life, so why am I being smitten by heavenly thunder?

Baldy was on the verge of tears.

The most maddening thing was that no matter which direction he fled, a lightning bolt would land on his head, unavoidable.

The little girl, regardless of how he attempted to capture her, would instantly teleport several hundred meters away the moment he was about to touch her.

"Damn, what wicked place is this?" Baldy felt utterly teased, unable to find a way out, and threw fits of rage.

Inside the room, Ye Haochuan exhaled a sigh of relief.

If that guy had continued exchanging blows, although Ye Haochuan could rely on the black pot to defend, he had no other means against him.

Now that the guy initiated contact, being exiled to the Minor World with Little Hun keeping him trapped first, any subsequent handling would be easy.

Calming his mood, Ye Haochuan once again devoted himself wholeheartedly to alchemy.

With Medicine King’s assistance, combined with his familiar alchemy techniques, the subsequent pill refining went smoothly.

After more than ten minutes, a faint dragon’s roar echoed from the pill furnace.

The eyes of the four azure dragons around the pill furnace suddenly flashed with a green light.

"It’s done!" Ye Haochuan was filled with joy, lifted the furnace cauldron, and deftly performed the pill-collection technique.

In the next instant, a pill as large as Dragon Rock, emitting an ethereal green aura, appeared in his hand.

Within this misty green aura, an azure dragon image gathered, circled the pill with a gentle coil, emitted a light dragon’s cry, then suddenly scattered and merged with the aura, appearing quite peculiar.

Though this batch produced just one pill, it concentrated all the essence of six pills into one, its efficacy unimaginable.

"So this is a perfect-level pill?" Ye Haochuan’s heart couldn’t help but beat rapidly, even his hand holding the pill trembled slightly.

"This pill has already surpassed just reaching the perfect realm level, vaguely infused with spirit; using this pill to break through to True Immortal stage will leave you with nearly ten times fewer impurities than other True Immortal Cultivators!"

The Medicine King’s condensed apparition showed a faintly ethereal but satisfied smile.

"Thank you, master, without your help, I wouldn’t have been able to refine this pill!" Ye Haochuan felt immensely grateful.

The Medicine King shook his head and smiled: "I merely provided a fire seed; the real refining relied on your own skill. Not just your alchemy techniques, maintaining nearly perfect control even while under sneak attack, your temperament and flame control amaze me greatly!"

"It’s all thanks to your teaching!" Ye Haochuan casually flattered.

The Medicine King chuckled softly, saying: "You’d better recover soon, as breaking through to True Immortal stage is no easy task!"

With that, Medicine King transformed into a wisp of smoke and drifted back into the round stone.
