"I did not mean for it to develop a spirit. Honestly, it was an innocent mistake." The man's cheeks turned a little red in embarrassment as he explained, "I was very interested in alchemy and my father gifted me a cauldron when I was just eight years old. I used to practice with the cauldron every day and I cared for it deeply. Although all my practice was fruitless, after twenty years of constantly being with me, the cauldron suddenly developed a spirit, and then I started learning more about spirits and that's how I came to know how to use it."
Hua Tianshu could immediately guess most of what the man had failed to explain.
For twenty years, the man cared for the cauldron and it started absorbing spiritual energy from the herbs that Wang Zexian used in order to practice making a pill. Although none of the pills were successful, the cauldron certainly got a lot of spiritual Qi and in turn, it developed a spirit.
