Within that secret chamber, there was indeed a large Furnace Cauldron, and Li Chen recognized it, because it was used for alchemy!
Previously, when Third Grandpa wanted to perform alchemy, he often had Li Chen assist him, and the cauldron he used was a treasured Furnace Cauldron that had seen much use. Although it looked worn and tattered, even Li Chen was not allowed to touch it.
Third Grandpa said that the cauldron had a significant effect on the efficacy of the Pills, so the better the cauldron, the more precious it became. As there were hardly any people now who could craft a fine cauldron, for a traditional medicine doctor, a good cauldron was something that could be encountered but not sought.
And the cauldron in this chamber was an exceptional Furnace Cauldron that Li Chen couldn't mistake, recognizing its remarkable nature at a glance.
