Chapter 386 I'm telling the truth, you have to believe me.
Zhong Lingxin picked up the alchemy furnace from the windowsill.
The alchemy furnace emitted a soft hum, and three large characters appeared on its surface: Xuanhuang Cauldron.
Below the three characters "Xuanhuang Ding" are a few lines of smaller characters: Heaven and Earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast and boundless, the pillar of heaven supports the sky...
The gist is that this cauldron was forged from the Xuanhuang stone at the foot of Tianzhu Mountain, where heaven and earth were first created, hence the name Xuanhuang Cauldron.
Ruyi was delighted and circled the Xuanhuang Cauldron several times: "Xinxin, this cauldron seems very powerful. It must be a divine cauldron."
Zhong Lingxin was also overjoyed, and forced out a drop of her heart's blood onto the Xuanhuang Cauldron: "It should be a divine cauldron. Senior Rui is a divine alchemist, so an ordinary cauldron cannot be used to refine it."
A drop of blood quickly seeped into the Xuanhuang Cauldron, but the cauldron remained motionless, showing no intention of recognizing its master.
Zhong Lingxin circled the cauldron once. A blurry image of the cauldron appeared in her consciousness, but she couldn't see it clearly, nor could she move it at will.
Ruyi gently shook the Xuanhuang Cauldron, but it didn't budge. "Xinxin, it might be a divine artifact. The contract for a divine artifact might be a bit complicated. Why don't you try using your divine sense?"
Zhong Lingxin lightly touched her brow with her finger, drawing out a wisp of divine consciousness and sending it into the Xuanhuang Cauldron, but the Xuanhuang Cauldron remained unmoved.
Suddenly, the Xuanhuang Cauldron flew up, turning into the size of a fist, and landed directly in Zhong Lingxin's hand. Then, Zhong Lingxin felt a pain in her fingertip, and then felt blood flowing from her fingertip into the small cauldron like a burst dam.
A contract array lit up beneath Zhong Lingxin's feet.
The body of the Xuanhuang Small Cauldron slowly glowed with a layer of gold.
As more and more of Zhong Lingxin's fingertip blood flowed into the cauldron, the golden layer became brighter and brighter until the entire cauldron was so shiny that Zhong Lingxin could hardly open her eyes.
After a long time, perhaps the Xuanhuang Cauldron had finished eating, it released Zhong Lingxin's hand and directly entered her dantian.
Ruyi Yue spoke up: "Xinxin, don't be stingy. Look, even the Xuanhuang Cauldron is getting anxious."
Zhong Lingxin gently circulated her immortal energy and quickly healed the wound on her finger. She smiled and said, "I was stingy. I'll know how to contract a divine artifact next time."
A voice, neither male nor female, came from the dantian: "That's not necessary. Only divine artifacts like mine, created by the heavens and earth, need their master's blood to coat the entire cauldron. Those forged later only need a divine imprint or a drop of heart's blood."
"Weren't you crafted by a weapon refiner?"
"Yes, but I used the Xuanhuang Stone from Tianzhu Mountain, which is a material created by the heavens and earth at the beginning of creation. It is tens of thousands of times better than your current meteorites, cloud essences, and black essences."
"Oh."
“Master, I’m telling the truth, you have to believe me.”
"I believe you. At least Senior Rui used you to refine a divine elixir."
"Master, you can do it too."
How do you know I can do it too?
"Hehe, I heard your conversation with Ruyi."
"You have good hearing."
"hey-hey."
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhong Lingxin. From now on, you can call me Xinxin or Lingxin Zhong Lingxin, just like everyone else. What's your name?"
"...Master, please give me a name. We divine artifacts have existed for thousands of years and have served countless masters. Some were good, some were indescribable. Each had its own thoughts and did not want us to remember our former masters. Please give me a name."
"You're quick at cutting."
"...It's not a matter of fast or slow. When Rui Rui was dying, she forcibly broke her contract with me."
I know she wanted me to live a good life.
I overheard your conversation with Ruyi and know that you are a kind-hearted person.
I guess I was lucky.
I devoted myself to refining pills under Rui Rui's guidance.
Don't worry, I will do my best to refine the pills in your hands.
The saying goes, "I will keep my eyes open all day long to repay the life I have never been able to smile."
Rui Rui suffered so much at the hands of that scoundrel Yi Ren; I hope you won't suffer like that.
Zhong Lingxin remained silent.
After a long silence, she said softly, "You are the Xuanhuang Cauldron, left behind by Senior Rui, so let's call you Zhong Xuanrui, with the nickname Ruirui. And Ruyi, how about you be called Zhong Ruyi?"
Zhong Xuanrui: "Thank you for the name, Xinxin. I will nurture myself in your dantian for a while. I don't even know how long I've been alone here. I feel like I'm rusting."
Ruyi nodded: "Okay, I'll call myself Zhong Ruyi."
Zhong Lingxin chuckled softly. She could sense that Zhong Xuanrui had lived for hundreds of millions of years and experienced too many separations and deaths. His old heart had long been worn numb and indifferent by the vicissitudes of time.
It's really not easy for it to remember Rui Rui's kindness to it.
Just like when she first took Ruyi, Rui Rui first fell asleep in Zhong Lingxin's dantian, slowly recovering her vitality.
After learning about the origins of the Immortal Plant Garden, Zhong Lingxin confidently and boldly collected a portion of each of the immortal plants from the garden and put them into the Nine-Story Pagoda.
Then, she replanted all the magical plants in the garden, leaving them for future generations.
As for the small house next to the Immortal Plant Garden, Zhong Lingxin didn't know how others would treat Senior Rui's fate, so she decided to destroy it.
Give Senior Rui some peace and quiet.
After doing all this, Zhong Lingxin, following the old green ox's instructions, arrived at the very center of the Immortal Plant Garden. As soon as she stepped onto it, she felt her body sway and she returned to the Wumeng Secret Realm.
With more than ten years to go before venturing into the secret realm, Zhong Lingxin decided to raise her cultivation level to the Immortal Lord stage.
She returned to the old green ox's original territory, set up several layers of formations, left the Ruyi (a magical artifact) for protection, and then returned to the Nine-Story Pagoda.
Inside the time array of the Nine-Layered Tower, the group members were all quietly cultivating.
Zhong Lingxin took out a ten-thousand-year-old phoenix marrow flower and a ten-thousand-year-old gentian grass, sighed, and was about to eat them with a bitter face.
She is not yet a ninth-grade alchemist, so she cannot refine the ninth-grade Dragon-Phoenix Pill and can only waste its medicinal properties.
Just as she raised the phoenix marrow flower to her lips, a chubby baby ran over and angrily snatched the flower from her hand.
When Zhong Lingxin looked, she realized it was the ginseng doll she had obtained in the Ninghe Secret Realm.
When I first obtained it, the ginseng baby couldn't take human form yet. It was raised in the time array of the Nine-Layered Pagoda for tens of thousands of years, and now it can run and jump.
The little ginseng doll pointed angrily at Zhong Lingxin: "You, you're wasting such a good thing! Eating such good stuff like that, you'll eat yourself to death!"
Zhong Lingxin nodded: "I know I'll be stuffed to death, I don't plan to eat it all at once! Look, I'll eat two leaves first and refine it slowly."
The little ginseng doll still held Zhong Lingxin's hand: "That's not good either."
Zhong Lingxin stopped what she was doing and asked, "Do you have a solution?"
The ginseng doll awkwardly pulled Zhong Lingxin to the outside of a barrier, and reached out to open it: "You can only take one ginseng and leave, you can't take any more."
It turns out that this was a piece of land near the Immortal Spring that Zhong Chun had specially allocated for the ginseng, which had not yet taken human form at the time.
The ginseng that had not yet taken human form grew extremely fast here. Not only did it take human form, but it also broke off a few roots and planted several small ginseng plants.
