319: Chapter 319 The Pill of Overcoming Calamity, The Method of Fire Control

"Hehehe!"

"The old guy must be getting impatient, which is actually quite funny..." Hun Tiandi's gaze swept across the surroundings; the street was sparsely populated.

He pushed open the door and slipped inside.

Inside the Shanhe Shop, moonstones emitted a faint, gentle, and non-dazzling light that illuminated the room clearly.

An old man was bent over a desk, meticulously crafting a map. There were five people in the shop buying maps: three men and two women, all elegantly dressed.

When Hun Tiandi entered, everyone's gaze fell upon him, but they didn't pay much attention.

They continued choosing maps.

When the five of them turned back, they happened to see Mei Niang behind Hun Tiandi. Her enchanting and alluring aura deeply attracted the three men.

Their eyes were filled with fiery desire, as if they had seen some peerless treasure.

The two women beside them, dressed in tight-fitting clothes, were pretty with exquisite figures, but compared to Mei Niang, the difference was like clouds and mud at first glance.

The two women were filled with hostility. Hun Tiandi ignored this group and came to the counter to flip through the maps.

The sound was not quiet. The old man making the maps paused his magic pen without raising his head, speaking indifferently: "The shop is closed for the day. If you want to buy maps, come back tomorrow!"

Hearing Tu Xingzi's words, Hun Tiandi shook his head slightly, and the sound of flipping through the maps became even louder...

This action further displeased the five people, who immediately drew their weapons and looked at him with fierce expressions.

"Hmm?"

This scene puzzled Hun Tiandi. His deep gaze swept over the group; it seemed the two women were the leaders, and they held some status in Stone Desert City.

"Master Tu does not like to be disturbed while making maps. Please leave!"

The woman in the tight-fitting clothes, who was already hostile toward Mei Niang, seized the opportunity and slowly stepped forward to say coldly.

Her voice was ethereal like a bird's, yet carried a sense of dominance.

"Could it be... that this group also knows the old man's identity?" Hun Tiandi mused inwardly, surprised that they were protecting Tu Xingzi in this manner.

The woman in the tight-fitting clothes before him felt somewhat depressed. This time, her family had instructed her to begin collecting the snake scale flower.

The snake scale flower—urgently needed?

The family had asked the woman to build a good relationship with the Master, but Tu Xingzi did not appreciate it, which the woman found difficult to accept.

However, for the sake of the snake scale flower, she had to treat him with respect.

Once, when someone caused trouble at the Shanhe Shop, the woman in the tight-fitting clothes was present. He released a terrifying aura to drive away the troublemakers, which also filled the woman with fear.

Therefore, her attitude was always respectful.

This often made some of her companions feel it was bizarre. Today, she came to the shop to help again, but Tu Xingzi's attitude had not changed.

He couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her. With her domineering personality, she couldn't help but feel some resentment.

Coupled with the fact that Mei Niang was following him, she was even more hostile toward Hun Tiandi.

Hun Tiandi, who had barged in without permission, naturally became the object of her venting.

Who was Hun Tiandi? He directly ignored the woman, casually tossed the map onto the counter, and stepped back. Seeing that Hun Tiandi had not taken her words to heart, her eyes were filled with fury.

She nodded slightly, and the burly men behind her surrounded Hun Tiandi. The woman looked triumphant.

Boom...

Under the woman's horrified gaze, Hun Tiandi slowly raised his hand, gathering Dou Qi in his palm, and slammed it onto the counter. Immediately, a loud bang erupted as the counter shattered.

"Old thing, playing aloof with me? Are you still refining the pill or not?"

The shattered wood fragments, upon approaching Tu Xingzi, were pulverized by a thick energy and turned into dust.

At this moment, the woman's eyes were filled with horror as she witnessed the old man's terrifying strength once again.

"This damned brat, to actually be rude to Master Tu..." Her gaze dropped, looking at Hun Tiandi with mockery.

She didn't believe the Master would let him off easily...

However, none of this went according to her expectations...

"Hehehe, little brother, you've finally returned. You really made this old man wait anxiously..." Tu Xingzi put down the magic pen in his hand, looking at the familiar figure, a hint of surprise flashing in the depths of his eyes.

"Who told you to have the things I need? Naturally, I had to come back. Thank you for the map, sir..."

Hun Tiandi smiled.

"Naturally!" Tu Xingzi waved his hand. Suddenly, his expression turned ugly because he sensed a familiar aura.

"You... Mei?"

"Stop with the 'Mei'... Let's begin!" Hun Tiandi interrupted him first. Tu Xingzi stared at the familiar aura, his aged eyes widening.

"All of you, get out!" Tu Xingzi said this while looking at Hun Tiandi, but his finger pointed at the five people. When these words were spoken, the woman in the tight-fitting clothes was stunned.

She felt some jealousy in her heart; she had helped for so long without ever receiving a smile.

Yet this youth actually received such courteous treatment from Master Tu.

"This guy..." she thought resentfully, leaving in a huff.

"Find a quiet place, let's begin!" Hun Tiandi spoke quickly. Led by Tu Xingzi, they chose a secret room in the backyard, and Liu Ling began to prepare for alchemy.

Breaking Calamity Pill!

A Tier 6 medicinal pill, recorded in the alchemy canon, which has the effect of breaking seals.

Inside the secret room, Liu Ling moved his hand, and a large pile of medicinal herbs appeared. If placed in the outside world, they could sell for hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

They were deeply loved by Alchemists.

Liu Ling told Tu Xingzi: "You guard outside. I do not want anyone to disturb me while I am refining the pill!"

"Rest assured, sir!" Tu Xingzi said excitedly. This concerned the seal within his body; how could he let anyone disturb him?

After leaving the secret room, only Liu Ling remained.

Immediately, Tu Xingzi arranged for Hun Tiandi and the others to be sent to a room, then left to stand guard outside the secret room.

"It is time..."

Hun Tiandi took a deep breath and flipped his hand to take out a light red scroll. The four characters "Fire Control Technique" were written on it; this was the alchemy technique he had purchased from Lin Xiaoyuan outside Sound Valley back then.

Now was the time to practice the Fire Control Technique and master the Taiyin True Fire. How could he not utilize such a rare Innate Divine Fire?

He poured his soul power into the scroll, and a stream of information flowed into his mind, which he read carefully.

He summoned the Taiyin True Fire, and the room's temperature dropped drastically, spreading frost flowers as if it were a world of ice and snow.

While Hun Tiandi was focused on practicing the Fire Control Technique, elsewhere in Stone Desert City, the woman in the tight-fitting clothes who had originally left had tears in her beautiful eyes.

She ran into a mansion. In the main hall, a burly, sturdy man was comforting the young girl.

"Hua'er, are you saying that Master Tu was somewhat respectful to a youth?"

The burly man asked, somewhat puzzled. Since he had known Master Tu, he had never seen him show reverence to anyone, and he felt some doubts.

Even towards him, the Master was somewhat indifferent.

"What exactly is that youth's identity?" the burly man muttered.

"Someone come! Go and investigate that youth's identity!" Immediately after he gave the order, a response came from the courtyard.

If it were the Mo Tie Mercenary Group asking to collect the snake scale flower, the burly man would not be willing to provoke that mysterious Master.

But he had no choice!

Information had come from above to collect the snake scale flower. He had met Master Tu a few times before and knew that he had a snake scale flower in his possession, so he had sent his daughter to build a good relationship with him.

To see if he could trade for the snake scale flower.

He hadn't expected the plan to be disrupted by a youth.

"This Fire Control Technique is truly a timely help. Compared to before, the Taiyin True Fire is much easier to control, without the previous feeling of obscurity!"

At this moment, having spent about three days, the deep blue Taiyin True Fire constantly changed shapes in his palm.

Sometimes a human figure, sometimes a magical beast, sometimes a lotus flower, sometimes a weapon...

In the future, he only needed to get familiar with it to master the technique of fire. One part of Dou Qi could drive the True Fire to erupt with three parts of power.

It was no longer like before, when he rescued Medusa and could only rely on the fire's own power to burn the chains.

The Taiyin True Fire danced at his fingertips like an elf.
