Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

After descending Tiandao Peak, Li Lan headed directly towards Tianhuo Peak, and soon ascended to the summit of Tianhuo Peak via the mountain path.

Compared to other main peaks, Tianhuo Peak also has many grand buildings, but now they are all empty and almost all covered with a thick layer of dust.

Since the decline of Tianhuo Peak, no disciples have been recruited. Elder Fan Yuzhi has an eccentric personality and is unwilling to recruit disciples, so he is the only one on Tianhuo Peak!

"Li Lan greets Elder Fan!"

Upon arriving at a neat and tidy Taoist palace, Li Lan spoke calmly. The door creaked open, but he was greeted by two cold-faced zombie puppets.

The zombie puppets were made from human corpses. They were silent and motionless. They parted the path, and one of the zombie puppets stretched out its hand and made a "please" gesture. Li Lan immediately followed it, and soon they arrived in front of a pill-making room.

Pushing open the door, a surge of heat immediately swept into the alchemy room, making one feel as if it were the sweltering midday heat, causing restlessness. The firelight flickered in the room, and Fan Yuzhi's voice came: "Li Lan is here, come in quickly!"

Upon entering, in the center of the alchemy room stands an ancient bronze furnace with two handles and eight trigrams, as tall as a person. It is simple, heavy, and clearly not an ordinary object. It is bound by eight huge chains, and at the bottom is a bottomless fire hole from which eerie flames flicker.

Li Lan knew that beneath this alchemy furnace was the Heavenly Fire Peak fire vein drawn by a grand formation, and its quality was quite high, greatly benefiting alchemy and weapon crafting.

"Li Lan, come and give it a try!"

The obese Fan Yuzhi was preparing something by a huge stone basin on the left side of the alchemy room. He rolled up his sleeves and added various medicinal powders, minerals, and animal blood to the huge stone basin, making the basin full of colorful liquids with a very strange taste.

But as Li Lan approached, he felt that the spiritual energy and medicinal aura were extremely concentrated!

This enormous stone basin contains countless precious medicinal herbs!

"Your physique is special; you need a period of nurturing before entering the Eight Trigrams Furnace!"

Fan Yu smiled and said, "You need to soak in it for three months. Only after your body has absorbed all the medicinal properties can you withstand the earth fire burning you when you enter the Eight Trigrams Furnace and finally break free from your cocoon and become a butterfly!"

He couldn't wait any longer and said, "Let's go in!"

This pot of precious medicine was actually prepared for Li Lan.

Li Lan glanced at the setup in the arena and felt a chill run down his spine!

If he were truly a mortal who had just begun cultivating and knew nothing, that would be one thing. But he had mastered all the Dao in the underworld; what insight did he possess? How could he not see that Fan Yuzhi was clearly treating him as a key ingredient?

They're trying to refine pills!

Before refining the pill, it is necessary to sift and nurture the medicine. Putting him in the stone basin is not because we are afraid that he will not be able to withstand the earth fire after entering the pill furnace, but because we are afraid that the medicinal properties in Li Lan's body are insufficient and will affect the quality of his pill.

Fan Yuzhi's earlier suggestion to emulate Laozi's method of refining the Battle Demon God to help Li Lan was actually a scheme with ulterior motives!

However, Li Lan didn't say anything, remaining quite calm. He immediately took off his clothes, entered the huge stone basin, and started the soaking process.

"Yes, that's it. Let's soak it for a month and see the results!"

Fan Yuzhi rubbed his hands together, his gaze towards Li Lan filled with eagerness, as if he were looking at a rare treasure!

"I will continue to refine medicine for you. You shall stay here and not leave without my permission, understand?"

He waved his hand, and a zombie puppet immediately stood guard beside him.

Fan Yuzhi left.

Li Lan soaked in the large stone basin, but let out a slight, cold laugh.

Without hesitation, he immediately began absorbing the medicinal energy and spiritual essence from the stone basin!

The colorful medicinal liquid transformed into streams of energy that permeated his body. In just two days, the entire pool of liquid had completely faded into ordinary water. When Fan Yuzhi arrived after receiving the message from the zombie puppet, he was stunned.
