Chapter 39

Heaven and Earth Strange Flames On the final door, four bold and powerful characters—"Heaven and Earth Strange Flames"—were deeply engraved. When Qin Yongping raised his eyes and saw these four words, his spirits instantly lifted, and a surge of irrepressible excitement welled up in his heart. As an Alchemist dedicated to the craft, pill fire was of paramount importance to him. The grade of the pill fire directly affected the quality of the refined herbs and the ultimate potency of the finished pills. Filled with anticipation and yearning, Qin Yongping reached out and gently pushed open the heavy stone door. However, the moment the door swung open, he froze in place as if struck by lightning. Although the vast space before him was divided into numerous sections, to his utter disappointment, every single one of them was completely empty! His heart, previously brimming with excitement, felt as though a basin of ice water had been dumped over it, instantly chilling him to the bone.
