Tap... Tap...

Xiao Yi’s footsteps stepped several times in the air, instantly crossing over the layers of flames overhead.

Sure enough, above his head, beyond the flames, there was another scene.

Xiao Yi could clearly see the wall of a giant iron furnace.

With a light step, Primordial Power enveloped everyone, they landed outside in an instant.

Outside was a huge room.

It seemed that they were already inside the Ancient Emperor’s Mansion.

In front of him, an enormous alchemy furnace appeared before Xiao Yi’s eyes.

"Hiss, what a massive alchemy furnace." Xiao Yi looked at the giant object in front of him and couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

The entire alchemy furnace was over several hundred meters high and more than a thousand meters wide.

On top of the furnace, blazing flames were burning continuously.

Just now, everyone had almost failed the trial inside this giant alchemy furnace, completely missing the opportunity of this Ancient Emperor.

Tap...

Xiao Yi’s footsteps landed steadily on the ground.

He glanced at everyone who was unconscious and injured, and without hesitation, repeatedly flicked elixirs out from his hand.

The elixirs landed precisely in their mouths.

Xiao Yi sensed for a moment and nodded slightly.

Although everyone was unconscious and their injuries were quite severe, they were not life-threatening.

Moments ago, of the 180 restrictions, more than 170 had likely melted. At the critical moment, Xiao Yi had barely refined the Hundred Dao Pill to break the prohibition and soared out.

If all 180 restrictions had melted, the temperature of the flames inside the giant alchemy furnace would likely have risen to a level that even Xiao Yi could not withstand.

By that time, everyone’s lives would have been in peril.

The Ancient Emperor’s Tomb was indeed a near-death experience.

And now, everyone’s injuries were mainly due to the scorching heat waves, which their bodies could not withstand.

With Xiao Yi’s Perfect Elixir, it wouldn’t be long before the potency of the elixirs within them took full effect, and they would wake up.

Xiao Yi withdrew his gaze from the crowd and once again focused on the enormous alchemy furnace in front of him.

The massive alchemy furnace originally had a prohibition seal.

If this seal could not be broken, it would be impossible to fly out of the furnace’s top.

Just now, when the Hundred Dao Pill was refined, it was placed at the prohibition at the end of the flames, triggering the prohibition and nullifying the power of the seal on the furnace.

Only then did he easily break the flames with Sword Qi and soar out.

Now, the reason Xiao Yi continued to stare at this gigantic alchemy furnace was because a stream of light shot towards him from it.

Xiao Yi caught it, sensed it for a moment, and his face lit up with joy, "It’s a cultivation technique."

Xiao Yi absorbed the stream of light, and in his mind, lines of cultivation techniques appeared out of thin air.

After a moment, when Xiao Yi finished reading all the content, his face showed a trace of amazement.

"The Ancient Cauldron Technique, what a powerful technique." Xiao Yi’s face showed surprise.

This was not a regular cultivation method.

Instead, it was a profound technique for controlling alchemy furnaces and medicine cauldrons.

"What a strange technique." Xiao Yi pondered it for a moment, and his face showed even more surprise.

This technique even came with the effect of enhancing alchemy skills.

Yes, enhancing alchemy.

For a normal alchemist, to improve their alchemy ability, there are generally two aspects.

One is fire control ability. A stronger fire control ability naturally allows an alchemist to be more adept during alchemy.

The second is alchemical methods. Alchemy is a profession with a complete set of systematic knowledge.

Alchemists have various outstanding alchemy methods. The furnace tapping finishing method that Xiao Yi used in the past is one of them.

The higher the alchemical method, the more an alchemist can overcome various difficulties in alchemy and perform better.

But now, this Ancient Cauldron Technique achieves the enhancement of alchemy capabilities or level by controlling the alchemy furnace itself.

The most impressive aspect is that, like the previous prohibitions, it directly incorporates the prohibition, even making the alchemy furnace automatically perform alchemy without the alchemist personally doing it.

Another point, which surprised Xiao Yi the most.

The Ancient Cauldron Technique is also a technique for controlling alchemy furnaces in combat.

According to the description, an alchemist can utilize an alchemy furnace to fight with the proficiency of a Sword Cultivator wielding a Divine Sword.

An alchemy furnace, in the hands of an alchemist, transforms from a simple alchemical tool into a weapon for taking lives.

Its effect does not focus primarily on killing but on bringing the potential of the alchemy furnace to the extreme.

Among alchemists, some have Martial Souls that are alchemy furnaces.

This is not unusual.

And these alchemists, being Martial Artists themselves, have the ability to use their alchemy furnace Martial Soul in combat.

Xiao Yi had also witnessed this before.

But the Ancient Cauldron Technique pushes all of this to the limit.

"As expected of the Ancient Emperor’s technique, truly powerful." Xiao Yi nodded.

At this moment, nearby, the originally unconscious group began to wake up.

The first ones to wake up were Guu Lianxing and Gongsun Huowu.

They were the strongest and naturally woke up faster.

Afterwards were the dozens of Heavenly Talents.

"Did we... make it outside?" The Heavenly Talents woke up, dazed.

"Have we left the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb, stopping here?" The Heavenly Talents clearly had not grasped the situation.

They just felt they were no longer in that Land of Flames and assumed they had exited the Ancient Emperor’s Tomb, thus missing the chance for opportunity.

"No, that’s not right." Guu Lianxing was the first to react, examining the surroundings. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"This is not outside; we are still within the mansion, right?"

"Which means, we’ve left that Land of Flames, and Young Master Xiao Yi has broken the prohibition." Guu Lianxing suddenly showed a face full of joy.

Amidst the joy, there was sudden shock.

"Hiss." Guu Lianxing took a deep breath, "Young Master Xiao Yi, truly beyond expectations, accomplishing what others cannot."

"For countless years, no one has been able to surpass the alchemy prohibition, yet you broke it."

"Broke the prohibition?" The Heavenly Talents also widened their eyes.

"Does this mean we can continue to participate in the Ancient Emperor’s Mansion and continue to seek opportunities?"

"Thank you, Vice Master Xiao Yi." The Heavenly Talents quickly expressed their gratitude.

Beside them, Gongsun Huowu remained silent, but her eyes were filled with smiles. The look in her eyes towards Xiao Yi was full of joy.

It was not merely the joy of passing the prohibition and being able to continue the journey to the Ancient Emperor’s Mansion.

Instead, it was the pure admiration for Xiao Yi’s incredible prowess, a joy that arose involuntarily in her heart.

"When Young Master Xiao Yi previously said ’it’s hard to say,’ we were truly anxious." Guu Lianxing said with a bitter smile.

"Heh." Xiao Yi chuckled softly.

When he said ’it’s hard to say,’ it was indeed hard to say.

But it was not about whether he could break the prohibition, but rather whether he was willing to use his powerful world-class flames for alchemy.

"By the way, I remember you said you were refining the Hundred Dao Pill, Young Master Xiao Yi." Guu Lianxing suddenly mentioned.

Xiao Yi nodded, and with a flash of light in his hand, he took out the elixir he had just refined.

The whole elixir was smooth and flawless, perfect without blemish.

It emitted an astonishing martial aura.

"It really is the Hundred Dao Pill." Guu Lianxing exclaimed, "The Hundred Dao Pill, a Supreme Elixir lost since Ancient Times, allowing Martial Artists to gain a hundred complete martial pathways."
