NOVPUBChapter 948: Chapter 503: Qingyun Furnace_2 Chapter 948: Chapter 503: Qingyun Furnace_2 Waiting for the assembly of many Mid Stage Golden Core peers to be completed, it might not even take half a month before they would set out together for the Huangyang Kingdom.
This meant that he had, at most, a little over half a month to sacrifice and refine this furnace.
Given the urgency of time, Lin Tianming chanted a Law Decree and sent beams of Spiritual Light bombarding the Pill Furnace.
At the same time, his powerful Divine Sense reached out, forcibly erasing the residual Divine Sense from the Pill Furnace.
At this moment, as the Divine Sense on the Pill Furnace was wiped away, the Pill Furnace completely became an ownerless object.
In an instant, the Pill Furnace madly jerked about, seeking to break free from Lin Tianming’s control of Divine Sense and flee this secret chamber.
“Hmph…”
...
“To think of escaping from the control of my being when it has become an ownerless object is utterly wishful thinking!”
Lin Tianming snorted coldly, with a look of disdain written across his face.
However, in his eyes, the stronger the reaction of the Pill Furnace, the higher its spirituality.
As such, he actually hoped the Pill Furnace would struggle fiercely–the more vehement, the better.
However, his own Divine Sense was too strong; not to mention his Divine Sense after consuming the Moon Soul Fruit.
Even before that, it was absolutely impossible for the Pill Furnace to escape the palm of his hand.
What’s more, now his Divine Sense had increased even further.
With his current Divine Sense and that soul power, he was definitely no weaker than a Mid Stage Golden Core Cultivator, and perhaps even stronger.
Under such circumstances, the Pill Furnace struggled violently, but no matter what, it could not break free of its restraints and could only leap up and down in place, seemingly expressing its unwillingness.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming smiled indifferently, and his even more powerful Divine Sense directly invaded the central system of the Pill Furnace.
Soon, the response of the Pill Furnace grew smaller, and eventually, it quietly hung motionless in midair.
Following that, Lin Tianming no longer delayed and relentlessly struck the Pill Furnace with his Law Decrees.
At the same time, he manipulated his Divine Sense to imprint his own Consciousness Imprint on the central system of the Pill Furnace.
Time passed day by day.
Half a month later, a muffled sound came from Lin Tianming’s Practice Room.
The original Pill Furnace had swelled to several times its size, emitting alternating blue and red glows as it hung in midair.
Looking closely, the densely packed tiny inscriptions on the Pill Furnace were also twinkling with light, and they continued to flow around the surface of the Pill Furnace.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming chuckled heartily, an excited smile flickering across his face.
Upon a closer inspection, he found that the Pill Furnace was now spiritually connected to him, and in the central system of the Pill Furnace, his Consciousness Imprint had been engraved.
Now, the Pill Furnace moved as he desired, even altering its outward appearance and shape.
Such a reaction was proof enough that he had completed the sacrifice and the recognition of the master was a success.
“Ha ha… Done!”
Lin Tianming laughed contentedly, then with a wave of his hand, the Pill Furnace rapidly shrunk in size, eventually becoming motionless in the palm of his hand.
He looked at the Pill Furnace attentively, examining it for a long time.
“Now that the sacrifice is complete, it’s time to name this Pill Furnace!”
Lin Tianming thought in silence; after all, he would use this Pill Furnace for a long time, and even if he had the opportunity to replace it with a better one in the future, it still needed a name.
Understanding this, Lin Tianming began to ponder a suitable name for the Pill Furnace in his mind.
In less than the time it took to drink a cup of tea.
Lin Tianming thought for a while and came up with several decent names that fit this Pill Furnace very well.
However, in the end, he settled on the name Qingyun Furnace.
With the Pill Furnace’s name confirmed, Lin Tianming did not idle, immediately taking out all the materials needed for several Second Order Pills, intending to try out the effects of refining with a Third Order Dan Furnace.
Experienced and adept, the process of Alchemy was swiftly completed.
Through his trial, although he had not engaged in serious pill refining for a long time, this attempt at Alchemy was much better in efficiency and effect than before. Not only was the process faster, but the success rate of forming pills also improved.
Lin Tianming was very satisfied with such results and attributed some of the success to this Pill Furnace.
However, after some thought, he realized the improvement was not solely because of the increased grade of the Pill Furnace used but also because his own Divine Sense had grown stronger.
After all, the strength of Divine Sense has a significant impact on Alchemy.
His Divine Sense, strengthened by the power of the Moon Soul Fruit, had improved, and aided by the Eye of Five Colors, could take further strides in Alchemy efficiency, success rate, and even the number of pills formed.
However, this was only about refining Second Order Pills. The difficulty of refining Third Order Pills increased exponentially, and maintaining such a high success rate obviously wasn’t realistic.
Yet even so, Lin Tianming was still very satisfied.
As for refining Third Order Pills, now was not the time, not only because his Alchemy had not reached the necessary grade but also because he didn’t have the time to continue secluded cultivation.
After his journey to the Huangyang Kingdom was over, he would need to stay in his clan’s territory to cultivate in seclusion for a while.
By that time, if the elixirs needed for his cultivation were secured, he would be at ease to cultivate in seclusion for a period, using it to improve his Alchemy and push his cultivation towards the Mid Stage Golden Core.
If the conditions were right, advancing to Mid Stage Golden Core wouldn’t be impossible.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianming calculated the time; in the next couple of days, the fellow daoists from several other Golden Elixir Forces would arrive at the Lin Family to gather.
Therefore, Lin Tianming didn’t plan to continue his seclusion and immediately got up to leave the Practice Room.
In the courtyard.
Lin Tianming sat next to a stone table, waiting for Qin Xi to finish her cultivation session.
Soon, Qin Xi walked out from the corridor, appearing behind Lin Tianming.
From a distance, her face lit up with joy, and she couldn’t help but call out, “Ming, have you finished your seclusion?”
Hearing the noise, Lin Tianming turned his head, looked at Qin Xi’s stunning face, and with a smile, he nodded, pulling her to sit down in front of him.
“Xi’er, I’ve been in seclusion for several months, and now, it’s the day when many fellow daoists will gather. It’s about time to come out and get ready.”
“Hehe…”
As he spoke, Lin Tianming laughed, seemingly noticing that Qin Xi had made significant progress in her cultivation.
So, Lin Tianming asked, “But you, my dear, your cultivation has actually reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment Ninth Level?”
Hearing this, Qin Xi smiled knowingly and replied, “Ming, thanks to the many treasures you’ve provided over the past two years, and that exquisite Hun Tian Pill, I was able to break through to my current realm smoothly.”
“Otherwise, if I relied solely on slow cultivation, it would have taken me at least several years of arduous training to reach this level.”
Qin Xi spoke earnestly, and indeed, it was the truth.
Over the years, she had consumed many Spirit Fruits, all rare varieties, which brought her significant improvements.
Moreover, with that fine Hun Tian Pill that Lin Tianming had given her, her cultivation level was completely elevated by a whole level.
It was thanks to these treasures that her cultivation speed had been so rapid over the years, nearly on par with Lin Tianming at the same stage.
Hearing Qin Xi explain this, Lin Tianming wasn’t particularly surprised.
Aside from the assistance of the Spirit Fruits and elixirs, Qin Xi’s cultivation speed was indeed fast.
At the least, at the same age and under similar cultivation conditions, Qin Xi’s cultivation realm was not much weaker than his at the same period.
In that sense, Qin Xi, gifted with Dual Spirit Roots and diligent in cultivation, truly deserved her rapid progress.
Otherwise, merely relying on a large number of treasures would make it hard to advance past the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.
Even if one forcibly advanced using treasures, the inadequate foundation would lead to instability, resulting in significant bottlenecks later on.
If this happened, it wouldn’t bode well for advancing to higher realms.
Lin Tianming, who had a deep understanding of this matter, had always valued his own foundation, enabling him to progress smoothly every step of the way.
It was also because of this approach that he faced few bottlenecks in improving his cultivation.
Understanding this, Lin Tianming couldn’t help but praise her.
“Xi’er, over these years, you’ve been through a lot of magic duels, building a solid foundation.”
“With the aid of those treasures, reaching this realm is just a natural progression.” 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝘣.𝘤𝘰𝑚
Qin Xi clearly felt validated by Lin Tianming’s recognition of her efforts.
Over the years, the crises and hard work she had endured were well known to herself.
Now that Lin Tianming acknowledged her efforts, it was more helpful than any aid.
Touched by these thoughts, Qin Xi replied with a smile and a determined tone, “What you say is true, Ming. I will continue to work hard in the future, until I catch up to your pace.”
Hearing this, Lin Tianming smiled back confidently.
“Haha… I believe that Xi’er will definitely surpass me!”
Afterward, he embraced Qin Xi tightly, and the couple fell into a tender moment.
