Chapter Eleven: The Nine Apertures of the Luminous Furnace

  Jiaolong Laozu's speed was as swift as a startled swan, Qin Yi was wrapped around by her massive tail and couldn't move his body at all.

  Qin Yi knew that Jiao Meng Lao Zu and Qin Hongyi were both masters who could "control their breath", she was now using her true energy to seal the meridians in her body, her actual strength was not as good as her opponent's, it was impossible for her to break free.

  He was taken away by this old python, and Qin Yi didn't know how he would be tortured and drained.

  Looking at the mountains and forests flying by in front of him, Qin Yi's heart now only has regret.

  Cannot bear being humiliated by Qin Hongyi and Qin Hongren, cannot bear not fulfilling father's last wish, one's own dreams.

  "Qin family, I must take you back! Tian Sheng College, I must become the highest-level disciple!" Qin Yi gritted his teeth, and even a sweet and bitter taste spread in his mouth.

  It seems that the corner python ancestor sensed the aura of killing on Qin Yi's body, and his eyes flickered with a hint of satisfaction: "The medicine cauldron captured today seems to be better than every one in the past."

  Qin Yi was wrapped by Jiao Meng's old ancestor for a day and a night, traversing mountains and forests, rivers, and arrived at the foot of a majestic mountain range at dusk.

  In the mountains, a strange and eerie energy emanates in waves. The mountain walls are like swords, pointing straight up to the sky, giving one a sense of being in a place where birds fly alone among thousands of mountains.

  "Little brother, we're here." The old ancestor of the horned serpent smiled coquettishly, curled up his body, lifted Qin Yi in front of him, and laughed with a trembling flower branch, exhaling like an orchid. "This seat has never met a little brother like you before, it seems that tonight can finally get rid of that medicine cauldron."

  Qin Yi looked at him coldly, without saying a word. The more he did so, the more Angler Old Ancestor seemed to like it, with a tender pink color on his face.

  Jiao Man Lao Zu twisted his waist, and his palm quickly slid through the air a few times. Qin Yi was shocked to see that the mist in front of him gradually dispersed, revealing a golden road paved with gold bricks, winding and stretching far into the distance.

  At the end of this golden road, a tall golden palace radiates an extravagance that is extreme.

  "There's actually a large array here!" Qin Yi was surprised, not by the luxury of the palace and roads, but that Jiao Meng Lao Zu had used a large array to cover up the tracks of his old nest.

  Only those who have reached the Flame Soul Great Boundary and can turn their internal true energy into a tangible "Flame Fire" can create an array. Gu Xian is still in the realm of physical cultivation, how could she possibly own a large array? Unless this place was originally a blessed land, discovered unintentionally by her and occupied as an old nest.

  Such a hidden nest, I'm afraid only cultivators who have reached the Flame Soul Great Boundary Flame Master level, plus some magical instruments, can find it.

  When he saw Jiao Man Lao Zu actually having an array method, Qin Yi suddenly felt that the possibility of escaping was even lower.

  "Little brother, after a while you can see the absolute beauty of this palace, you must hold on tight." Jiao Meng Lao Zu covered her mouth and smiled, twisting her snake waist, leading Su Huan to the majestic pure gold palace at the end of the Golden Road.

  Fresh flowers bloomed on both sides of the golden road, with fragrance that was intoxicating and refreshing. The golden palace at the end of the road was breathtakingly beautiful.

  The entire palace was built with gold, silver, and precious jewels, reflecting a dazzling light. I don't know what kind of great array is supporting it from above. On the pure gold walls that are over 10 zhang high, you can see patterns of fairies playing musical instruments. These fairies are all naked, their music is enchanting, making people slightly drunk.

  Qin Yi only listened to these soft and gentle sounds for a moment, but he felt as if he had drunk old wine from past years, his body involuntarily softened, his limbs out of control, wanting to move along with the music.

  Seeing Qin Yi's eyes gradually narrowing and his body slowly merging into the music, Jiao Meng's old ancestor pursed his lips and loosened the tail that was wrapped around him.

  Qin Yi was like a drunkard, obediently following Jiao Meng's old ancestor towards the Golden Palace.

  As he stepped into the palace, a strong medicinal fragrance suddenly wafted up to him. Qin Yi took in a mouthful and was suddenly invigorated, with the Eight Extremes Great Method automatically activating once more, pulling him back from the brink of desire.

  Coming to himself, a layer of cold sweat floated on Qin Yi's back, and he secretly said: "What just happened? How did I get in?"

  Thinking of that strange wall just now, Qin Yi's heart still had lingering fear: "The patterns and music on that wall were actually mesmerizing!"

  Another medicinal fragrance wafted over, and Qin Yi lifted his head to look forward, instantly freezing in place, his heart almost jumping out of his chest.

  In front of him, in the center of the magnificent golden palace, stood a gigantic dan furnace that was as tall as five people!

  The color of this crucible is neither blue nor black, and I don't know what material it's made of. At the moment, it seems to be like a human heart, constantly expanding and contracting. Every time it expands and contracts, the thick fragrance of medicine that has almost solidified overflows in all directions.

  A kaleidoscope of colors like a rainbow surrounds the surface of the cinnabar furnace, with purple and red hues.

  The alchemy furnace was engraved with complex inscriptions and arrays. Qin Yi counted them, and there were nine holes on the surface of the furnace. As the furnace contracted and expanded, pink and crimson smoke would gush out from the holes, then condense into small blood-red beads in mid-air.

  These small beads are brightly colored and seem to be dripping with dew, tremblingly supported by a pale pink gas, floating into a large cauldron not far away.

  Large chunks of milky white **, in the casserole swirling into a whirlpool, boiling and bubbling, wave after wave of refreshing fragrance, is from these milky white **rushing out.

  Qin Yi gazed at the huge dan furnace, feeling his heart racing wildly.

  The vast and mighty true energy that constantly surged out of the giant Dan furnace was as boundless as the universe, and it was impossible to imagine just how abundant it was.

  To reach this realm, it is unknown how many ancient legendary alchemical furnaces have been tempered and cast, and how many wills of the great sages of the distant past have been passed down inside. Inside are engraved several thousand to tens of thousands of grand arrays.

  "Could this be a treasure?" Qin Yi stared blankly at the dan furnace, unable to help but mutter to himself.

  At the time of "The Continental Chronicles", Qin Yi learned that the magical artifacts in this world are divided into seven levels, namely: ordinary objects, earth-grade objects, heavenly objects, Taoist objects, immortal objects, divine objects and sacred objects.

  Ordinary warriors can have one ordinary artifact, and it's already very powerful. The Qin family, where Qin Yi is from, has a total of three ordinary artifacts, which is why they can become one of the top families in Yuhua City.

  And if someone has a powerful weapon, even if they are the current emperor of the Great Wu dynasty, they would not dare to show you an unpleasant face.

  Once it reaches the level of a divine artifact, countless cultivators will risk their lives to seize it! One divine artifact is enough to increase the user's strength by tenfold! Twentyfold!

  The emergence of a divine artifact will inevitably trigger a bloody storm, with countless countries involved and innumerable Xian schools pouring out. Even if one has reached the pinnacle of the Flame Soul Realm, such as the Flame Immortal or Flame God, they will still take action to contend for it.

  If a sect has an artifact, it can attract countless disciples to join, and in more than ten years, it can change from a scattered immortal sect with only a few people to a medium-sized sect with tens of millions of people.

  As far as Qin Yi knew, the Tian Sheng College he had always dreamed of entering only had a little over ten divine artifacts.

  It is precisely because of these more than ten divine artifacts that the Tian Sheng College can always maintain its position as one of the top three sects in the world.

  Sacred artifacts are also divided into many categories, and the most difficult to refine is the alchemy furnace. Moreover, the alchemy furnace is extremely important for a sect.

  The disciples of these sects must take elixirs to advance, because only elixirs can help them remove impurities from their bodies, making their bodies more resilient and their true strength more refined, thereby rapidly increasing their power and constantly breaking through.

  The purer the elixir is, the more it helps to enhance one's strength.

  Only higher-level pill furnaces can refine top-quality pills.

  Jū yān dān in Yù huá chéng, in Dà wǔ cháo is ordinary people all want to have of foundation-building spiritual medicine, but in these big gate sects' eyes, Jū yān dān is just dirt, because Jū yān dān's impurities are still too many.

  Rumor has it that the Tian Sheng Academy has two divine-level pill furnaces, four immortal-level pill furnaces, twelve dao-level pill furnaces, and countless earth-level pill furnaces. The elder generation of the academy works day and night to refine pills, providing for the millions of disciples within the sect every day.

  A divine elixir refined from the Dan Furnace, a pure and potent medicine that can increase a cultivator's cultivation speed by hundreds or thousands of times, making progress of a thousand miles in a single day no longer an issue.

  Qin Yi finally understood why Jiao Meng's old ancestor, with a lifespan of only a few hundred years, could half-transform into human form and possess such high strength - it was because she possessed this sacred-level dan furnace.

  If she relied on her own efforts to cultivate herself, it would take at least another 500-600 years for her to reach the current level.

  Unfortunately, Jiao Man Lao Zu's original strength was limited and he didn't understand alchemy at all, so he couldn't refine high-grade elixirs. Otherwise, her strength would have far surpassed what it is now, and becoming a Demon Lord, Demon King, or Demon Saint would be just around the corner.

  And the highest-level sacred artifact, according to the "Continental Chronicle", has not appeared in the mortal world until now, and only exists in legend. Legend has it that the sacred artifact has no fixed form, and even the power of gods and demons cannot move it, only the legendary All-God God has the qualification to possess the sacred artifact!

  Just as Qin Yi was shocked by the Dan furnace, Jiao Meng Lao Zu twisted his waist and came to Qin Yi's side with a charming expression. He wrapped his slender jade arm around Qin Yi's shoulder and said intimately: "Little brother, what do you think of this Nine Apertures Linglong Furnace? If you like it, I can refine Dan medicine for you every day, guaranteeing your strength will increase by leaps and bounds. Hehehe, at that time, those few old guys from today will probably be knocked to the ground with just one finger."

  "The Nine Apertures Luminous Furnace." Qin Yi's expression remained unchanged, but he secretly committed the name of this pill furnace to memory. "Legend has it that a person with seven apertures in their heart can be called a Seven Apertures Luminous Heart, and those who possess such a heart are all extraordinary figures capable of overturning the heavens and turning the rain upside down. Now, this pill furnace is actually called the Nine Apertures Luminous Furnace - it's clearly an absolute treasure. No wonder Jiao Meng Old Ancestor hid it here and used a grand array to conceal its tracks; otherwise, if other cultivators were to find out that she possessed such a precious artifact, she would likely have been killed countless times already."

  Qin Yi remained unmoved, and Jiao Meng's old ancestor didn't think much of it either. Suddenly, he smiled coquettishly and said: "As long as you serve me comfortably, I'll reward you with a few more elixirs tonight. I'm eager to taste your flavor!"

  With a loud shout, he swung his giant tail and swept it towards Qin Yi's legs.

  Qin Yi wanted to dodge, but unfortunately, there was now a huge gap in strength between him and the opponent. He was wrapped around his legs by the opponent and lifted into mid-air.

  Jiao Man Lao Zu chuckled, sizing up Qin Yi from head to toe with an increasingly satisfied expression. Suddenly, he waved his palm, and a blast of air sliced through the air, ripping open Qin Yi's clothes and sending them flying in both directions.

  Qin Yi was suddenly suspended upside down in front of Jiao Meng's ancestor.

  "Little brother, I don't know if you can satisfy me or not." Jiao Meng's old ancestor licked his lips, with an enticing blush on his face.
