Chapter 94 One Hundred Ways to Use the Soul-Binding Cauldron (15)

Feilai Peak, the inner courtyard of the Mountain God Temple.

"So... this is the 'thing' you're talking about?"

Looking at the Soul Cauldron that was burning fiercely, Xi Luo's eyes almost bulged out.

Because the Prison Soul Cauldron was activated.

But it is not currently engaged in alchemy, demonic cultivation, or ghost refining.

The lid of the Prison Soul Cauldron was lifted, and two enormous beast legs were hung on the inner wall by iron hooks, much like those ovens specifically used for roasting ducks.

"Sharpening your axe won't delay your woodcutting, and besides, I'm hungry now."

Without a second thought, Li Boyang tossed a roasted animal leg to Xi Luo and then took the second leg from the cauldron.

"This was specially saved for us by the eldest daughter, you can't possibly let her down, can you?"

She swallowed hard, trying to suppress the aroma lingering at her nose, and said to Li Boyang in an annoyed tone.

"This is the Soul-Piercing Cauldron!"

"It's the national treasure of the Ghost Kingdom!"

"You actually used it to grill meat? The people of Guifang Kingdom will definitely kill you if they find out!"

Reaching out to close the lid of the cauldron, Li Boyang was seen gnawing on a beast leg while still refuting Xi Luo.

"Of course I know, so what?"

"Who says the Soul-Binding Cauldron can't be used for grilling meat?"

"And don't you think the meat roasted in the Prison Soul Cauldron smells especially good?"

Xi Luo knew, of course, that the meat roasted in the Prison Soul Cauldron smelled delicious; otherwise, she wouldn't have been secretly swallowing her saliva.

"This is the new use you figured out?"

"Use a divine artifact capable of refining ghosts and gods to roast meat?"

"While the meat roasted in the Prison Soul Cauldron is indeed very fragrant, don't you think it's a bit of a waste of its potential?"

Xi Luo knew very well that Li Boyang had actually been exploring how to use the Prison Soul Cauldron.

Especially after Lijia Village established its own medicinal herb garden and fields, there was no longer any need to worry about the consumption of common herbs.

Li Boyang had been trying to extract the medicinal properties from the Prison Soul Cauldron with the help of its power, hoping to achieve a qualitative change from a quantitative one.

In Li Boyang's own words, he was trying to "refine elixirs".

Because anything that has been touched by vital energy will be influenced by it and exhibit an extraordinary aspect.

For example, the evil fire can directly enhance the attributes of things.

The sturdy stone bricks became even stronger, and the sharp blades became even sharper...

These seemingly illogical changes are precisely the most direct impact of malevolent energy on things.

In this respect, the flames of the Prison Soul Cauldron are different from ordinary evil energy flames.

The flames of the Prison Soul Cauldron are a mixture of many different primordial energies, a primordial energy flame that Li Boyang has not yet understood.

Even with the Heavenly Fate Bone Armor, Li Boyang was still unable to clearly discern the complex reactions involved.

Fortunately, after some research and observation, Li Boyang noticed that the fire in the Prison Soul Cauldron could purify and fuse the spirituality of matter itself.

This reminded Li Boyang of the Taoist concept of "alchemy" from his previous life.

Although herbs and plants are medicinal materials, they are also real life forms, inherently possessing spirituality.

If we could extract the medicinal properties and spiritual essence of the herbs and then refine them using special methods, we might be able to obtain a miraculous elixir that could "restore flesh to bones and revive the dead."

At the very least, pills refined in this way will definitely not be inferior to ordinary medicines.

More importantly, the emergence of elixirs is very likely to greatly lower the threshold for cultivation.

Even if they are past the age of their own parents.

The leakage of vital energy far exceeds its growth, and ordinary people whose thinking and instincts are basically fixed.

It is also possible to regain the possibility of practicing the Breathing Technique by consuming elixirs.

"After refining herbs for so long, it's nice to change things up once in a while..." "No one says that 'alchemy' can only be made from herbs, right?"

"Next time I plan to throw in the five-colored stones again, and see if it has any strange effects!"

With a quick roll of her eyes, Xi Luo finally couldn't resist taking a bite of the beast's leg.

"Hmm, your behavior is getting weirder and weirder..."

"The divine artifacts that the Ghost Kingdom used to refine ghosts and gods have fallen into your hands and have been used to refine all sorts of strange and bizarre things."

"I feel that even if you use the Soul Cauldron to refine ore, refine iron, or even throw living creatures into it, I won't be surprised at all."

These words were like a wake-up call; Xi Luo's words successfully made Li Boyang blink.

"Hmm, that's a good idea. It seems like we could give it a try."

As long as you don't treat the Soul-Piercing Cauldron as some kind of precious cauldron, but simply use it as a furnace, there are countless things you can refine.

"You said I'd throw your idol in next time..."

"Will we eventually create a raccoon dog capable of wreaking havoc in the Heavenly Palace?"

Seeing that Li Boyang was starting to say things he couldn't understand at all, he realized that Li Boyang was saying things he couldn't understand at all.

Xi Luo simply rolled her eyes, too lazy to pay attention to the other person, and instead focused on gnawing on the beast leg in her mouth.

However, she didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but Xi Luo felt that this beast leg was different from the ones she had eaten before.

"Baby, you didn't add any medicinal herbs to this, did you?"

After carefully chewing and eating, Xi Luo finally realized that there was indeed something wrong with the beast leg.

"Do you remember the 'failed product' I extracted last time using a series of medicinal herbs such as ginseng, astragalus, codonopsis, yam, and jujube?"

Upon hearing this, Xi Luo frowned and thought carefully for a moment, then her expression immediately changed drastically.

"You mean... that black blob that's completely unrecognizable?"

Because the previous alchemy attempt almost blew up the Soul-Binding Cauldron, Xi Luo had a very deep impression of it.

"What black stuff? That's called ointment!"

"Although the smell is indeed a bit unpleasant, it's fine as a marinade, isn't it?"

This time, Xi Luo's expression didn't just change drastically, but she was filled with fear.

After so many years of getting along, Xi Luo was well aware of just how destructive the things Li Boyang created could be.

"Don't worry, it's not as bad as you think!"

Seeing through Xi Luo's thoughts at a glance, Li Boyang had no choice but to put down the beast leg in his hand and explain.

"That ointment is for invigorating qi and nourishing the spirit, although its appearance and effects are indeed somewhat exaggerated..."

"But after dilution, it's perfect for use as a marinade."

Before Xi Luo could refute, Li Boyang asked with a smile.

Isn't your current performance the best proof?

"Using animal meat as a medicinal guide weakens the effect of the ointment, which greatly reduces the clinical efficacy but increases the duration of the drug's effect."

"During the duration of the medication's effects, your blood circulation and cell activity will far exceed normal levels, and even your self-healing effects will be remarkable."

"If you're willing to take advantage of this time to exercise, the results will definitely be twice as good..."

"Breaking through one's physical limits may not be possible for the time being, but fully tapping into one's potential is not uncommon."

After saying all this, Li Boyang concluded with his final statement.

"Although it's not the 'elixir' I imagined, it is indeed a miraculous medicine for body tempering."

"It just so happens that Li Jingshu is unable to use the evil energy to refine her body, and this ointment can help her continue to strengthen her physical body."

As he said this, Li Boyang first glanced unconsciously at his own reddish skin, and then touched his sharp fangs.

For Li Jingshu, the fact that the ointment wouldn't cause any unusual phenomena in the user might be an added bonus.
