Li Wanqing got up and hurriedly left, returning shortly.
In his hands, he held a three-legged pill furnace the size of a sand pot, its body forged from blood-red copper, with dark golden patterns resembling scales densely covering its base, as if lava flowed within.
The belly of the furnace featured reliefs of three flaming cranes with golden patterns, their beaks clutching fire essences, every feather vividly detailed.
"Please take a look, fellow Daoist. This furnace is primarily made of Tier Two middle-grade spiritual materials: Red Flame Profound Crystal and Blood Red Copper, smelted together with the millennia-old Earth Vein Fire Crystal.
In sunlight, it seems like translucent agate; in the dark, it appears as a burning charcoal core, with golden threads sketching the flaming cranes as if they've come to life, vividly lifelike."
He handed the pill furnace over and added:
"Fellow Daoist can appreciate it closely; there's an ingenious design inside the furnace."
