Chapter 2410 Starfire Refining Furnace
The effeminate young man was murdered, and even his body was taken away by Qin Sang.
The White Dragon King and his wife were ashen-faced. They had intended to use Qin Sang to unravel the secrets of this place, but they never expected that Qin Sang would be able to kill the effeminate young man right in front of them.
The two demons were furious. Even though their escape skills were inferior to Qin Sang's, they were unwilling to let him go so easily.
Qin Sang glanced back and saw that the two demons were still chasing after her.
He held a demon corpse in his hand, which had now revealed its true form. Its body was actually very small, only slightly larger than a pheasant, but it had a long beak, its head was drooping, and its eyes had completely lost their luster.
Having temporarily disposed of the demon corpse, Qin Sang ignored the White Dragon King and his wife. The lightning escape technique he used was not ordinary; it was powered by the Azure Phoenix True Lightning. Among cultivators of the same level, none could surpass him in escape techniques.
With the effeminate young man gone, the White Dragon King and his wife would no longer be a problem, and Qin Sang could now confidently uncover the secrets hidden in these clouds.
Qin Sang already had a plan in mind, so he flew straight to a certain place in the sea of clouds. Just then, golden light shone from there, and a tower of light appeared.
'Shuh! '
The blue lightning stopped above the light tower.
Qin Sang's gaze was deep and unfathomable. In his mind, this tower of light, along with the surrounding towers, formed a star map, a constellation. And the most crucial position on this star map should have been occupied by a star, but it was currently empty.
This is the position reserved for a cultivator's destiny star!
Qin Sang seemed to have forgotten the pursuers behind her, and actually entered a meditative state here, using all her mental energy to connect with the power of her destiny star, imagining a beam of starlight shining into the star map, forming an illusory star there.
Although the White Dragon King and his wife were not skilled in escape techniques, their cultivation was profound and their speed was actually not slow, so they were not left too far behind by Qin Sang.
Seeing this, both demons sensed something was wrong. Then they saw the light tower beneath Qin Sang suddenly light up, bursting out with extremely dazzling golden light, standing out like a crane among chickens among countless light towers.
Immediately afterwards, more light towers suddenly began to shine, flickering as if responding to the call of the first light tower.
Soon all the light towers underwent changes, and one by one, the light towers emerged from the sea of clouds.
At this moment, the White Dragon King and his wife only saw the towers of light, ignoring the sea of clouds. These towers of light, like stars in the night sky, shone brightly, connected by golden light to form an incredibly vast and complex star network.
They had a feeling that the golden light emanating from these light towers was being drawn to Qin Sang, that Qin Sang was the center of this sea of stars! And they felt like two creatures adrift in an endless sea of stars, a sense of bewilderment and helplessness welling up within them.
The two demons realized something was wrong and quickly took action to try to stop Qin Sang.
Qin Sang ignored the attack from behind, his eyes fixed on the front. Golden light gathered in the void, transforming into a new tower of light in front of him.
Like those other light towers, this one only had three stories, but it was extremely tall. Standing in front of the light tower, Qin Sang felt as small as an ant.
The gate to the Tower of Light was open, and Qin Sang stepped across the threshold.
'boom! ’
The portal slammed shut, and all of the White Dragon King and his wife's attacks landed on it, only causing slight ripples as they were firmly blocked.
Then the golden light suddenly dimmed, and the golden pagoda vanished from before the two demons, disappearing into an unknown place. The surrounding golden pagodas also lost their golden light, returning to normal. When the White Dragon King and his wife arrived at the place where Qin Sang had disappeared, all the miraculous phenomena had vanished, and everything had returned to its previous state.
The two demons' faces turned ashen.
Qin Sang summoned the mysterious light tower in front of them, but they did not cultivate ancient demonic arts. They only used the power of stars as a tool for body tempering, rather than truly cultivating the path of stars. Even though they watched the whole process, they still felt at a loss.
The intermittent appearance and disappearance of the light tower in the sea of clouds indicates that this place is constantly changing. The mysterious light tower may not be in the same location the next time it opens. Those who do not understand its mysteries and blindly imitate Qin Sang, reciting from the script, will only make themselves a laughing stock.
If the effeminate youth were still alive, inspired by Qin Sang, he would probably be able to do it, but the effeminate youth is already dead.
The two demons looked at each other and both felt a sense of powerlessness.
……
Upon entering the light gate, the scene inside the light tower was somewhat unexpected; Qin Sang saw an endless night sky.
Up, down, left, and right, all is nothingness.
There were twinkling stars in the sky, clearly not real stars. Qin Sang thought of the light towers outside. Among the stars, one stood out most brightly, even brighter than the moon in the night sky.
This was the most obvious sign. After confirming that there was no danger around, Qin Sang flew directly towards that bright star.
As Qin Sang got closer, she discovered that the bright star was actually a huge fireball. This flame had been burning alone in this void for countless years, and it was still burning fiercely, with flames dancing wildly.
However, Qin Sang did not feel any heat; the flames were as cool as starlight, emitting no high temperature. Strangely, when Qin Sang tried to get close to the flames, she felt as if she were being burned by them.
Qin Sang focused his senses and felt that the fireball was filled with a familiar power, a kind of flame formed from the power of stars, which he would tentatively call Starfire.
After observing for a while, Qin Sang left Xinghuo and wandered around, where she discovered some more things.
'Shuh! '
Qin Sang flashed and landed on a floating stone platform.
The stone platform was flat on three sides, but one side had a noticeable break, with runes drawn on it, clearly showing signs of a restriction, but it had lost its power. Qin Sang then found some more fragments elsewhere, but after several attempts, she was unable to restore them.
It is conceivable that when the Seven Mansions of Xuanwu were destroyed, this place was not spared and was also impacted.
After searching around, only that spark seemed somewhat mysterious.
Qin Sang returned to the vicinity of Xinghuo, gazed at it, and fell into deep thought.
"What are these sparks for?" Qin Sang pondered this question, placing the fragments of unknown origin in front of him and scanning them one by one. Then he looked up, surveyed the sea of stars, and suddenly his expression shifted slightly.
"Could it be..."
Eight words floated into Qin Sang's mind.
Heaven and earth are the furnace, and the stars gather to form the fire!
Could this be the place where ancient demons cultivated artifacts?
Qin Sang, as a master craftsman, has profound knowledge of the art of crafting. Although this is a crafting method he has never seen before, the principles are the same.
He gazed at the starlight again, verifying it with his understanding of the art of weapon crafting, and indeed discerned some clues.
Although it is unknown how this spark was born, it is certain that this fire is extremely effective in refining artifacts, especially when refining treasures belonging to the Way of the Stars, where it can achieve twice the result with half the effort!
So that's how it is! This place is actually a furnace!
However, before the Seven Stars of Xuanwu were damaged, the sparks in the furnace must have been far more intense than they are now, and those fragments, when intact, should have been treasures used to aid in the refining of artifacts.
The reason why the spark has not been extinguished and has existed to this day is that the furnace is still there, and those light towers and even the entire Xuanwu Seven Mansions are the foundation of the spark.
For this reason, Qin Sang tried several times and found that she could not take the spark away; once the spark left this place, it would go out.
Since she couldn't take it with her and could only use it here, Qin Sang's first thought was the Grey Oriole Sword.
With the Wandering Sword out of reach, the Grey Oriole Sword became his most important sword. Qin Sang had always wanted to fuse the Grey Oriole Sword and the fragments of the Taiyin Divine Sword into one, but he was always a little short of success. Firstly, he had too many distractions, which slowed his progress in comprehending the sword formation. Secondly, the Taiyin Divine Sword was made of mysterious materials, and Qin Sang dared not make a move lightly.
For cultivators refining artifacts, the skill of the artifact refiner is certainly important, but even the most skilled cook cannot make a meal without ingredients. Here, with the finest spiritual fire and the best furnace, other deficiencies can be compensated for.
If the Grey Oriole Sword is refined with the help of sparks, even if it cannot be fused with the Taiyin Divine Sword in the end, its power will definitely be greatly increased!
Unfortunately, the Grey Oriole Sword was taken away by the Dharma Body.
I wonder if I can sense the Dharma body here. This is a furnace, which can also be regarded as a spirit array. A powerful spirit array can isolate the connection between the true body and the Dharma body.
Thinking of this, Qin Sang sat down cross-legged and focused his mind to try. Under his full perception, he could faintly sense the Dharma Body. It seemed that the great formation was damaged and the 'refining furnace' had cracks.
……
Outside the constellation of Dou.
After the demons, including Yuanluo, entered Dou Su, the place became peaceful.
The Dharmakaya had been patiently waiting there, and now it vaguely sensed a call from the principal deity. The sensation was very faint, and it was unclear what had happened to the principal deity, but the principal deity was not in a hurry, so it must not be anything bad.
At this time, there was no movement from Dou Su, and there was no progress from Mo Yan's side.
Without hesitation, the Dharma Body turned and flew towards the Void Mansion.
Upon entering the Void Abode, the connection between the Dharmakaya and the Primordial Deity becomes significantly clearer, becoming increasingly evident the deeper one delves, guiding the Dharmakaya towards the source of light.
More than ten days later, the Dharma body arrived in front of the archway.
During this time, Qin Sang had been studying the Starfire and the Refining Furnace, deducing how to use them, and had gained some confidence. Sensing the arrival of the Dharma Body, he got up to greet it.
The next moment, golden light shimmered above the sea of clouds, revealing a tower of light. Qin Sang, holding a celestial mountain in his palm, stepped out of the star tower, ready to make his move at any moment. However, he had never been afraid of the White Dragon King and his wife before, and now that his Dharma body had arrived, he was even less afraid. If the two demons were overconfident, it was not impossible for him to leave one of them alive.
"what?"
Unexpectedly, the White Dragon King and his wife were nowhere to be seen.
Have they already given up?
Qin Sang slowly flew towards the entrance, opened the gate, and welcomed his Dharma body in, confirming that the White Dragon King and his wife had already left.
In fact, after Qin Sang entered the Light Tower, the White Dragon King and his wife tried several times without success and gave up. After all, among the six constellations outside of Dou Su, there were more than just this one place with mystical properties. Continuing to guard it was pointless, unless they invited another expert to help, they simply couldn't stop Qin Sang.
This allowed Qin Sang to avoid a fight. Her Dharma body returned, and Qin Sang returned to Starfire with the Gray Oriole Sword.
From the Arctic ice field southwards, and during the time spent in the Lotus Crossing Swamp, Qin Sang had been collecting various spiritual materials in preparation for refining the Grey Oriole Sword.
Including the gentian stone and gold, one after another spiritual material was laid out in front of him, each with its own unique brilliance, a truly magnificent sight!
Qin Sang already had a certain understanding of the characteristics of the sparks, so she took the lead in lighting a piece of dry wood and throwing it into the fire, preparing to start with the least valuable spiritual materials.
The spark was indeed remarkable; the withered wood was transformed into a flame, and Qin Sang only needed to guide it slightly to complete the tempering process. The enormous piece of withered wood was reduced to a fist-sized wisp of azure light. Qin Sang reached out and recalled it, unexpectedly discovering that this wisp of light contained an additional power.
Qin Sang was slightly surprised, but after careful contemplation, she realized that it had been endowed with a kind of stellar power. This stellar power was very mysterious and did not conflict with its own characteristics. It was conceivable that when the treasure was finally forged, it would not damage the treasure's inherent power, but would only enhance it.
"As expected, this is the place where treasures of the Star Dao are forged," Qin Sang thought to himself.
The fact that the Grey Oriole Sword possesses this characteristic shouldn't be a bad thing. Its primary sword technique is the Four Symbols Sword Formation, which might later be called the Four Symbols Nine Luminaries Sword Formation. The sword formation originates from the celestial sphere, making it a perfect match, and it might even produce unexpected effects!
With this in mind, Qin Sang worked tirelessly, refining each spiritual material in the starlight. After a flurry of activity, all the spiritual materials were refined, discarding the dross and leaving only their pure essence.
Qin Sang silently channeled his sword technique, and the Grey Oriole Sword emitted a sword cry, transforming into a beam of light that disappeared into the flames. Instantly, the flames danced wildly, but Qin Sang did his utmost to calm them, guiding the sparks into streams of fire that coiled around the sword. Soon, the sword's shadow could no longer be seen within the sparks, and a look of solemnity appeared on his face as he continuously cast various hand seals towards the sparks.
'Shuh! '
Before long, the first cluster of spiritual material essence flew out.
One after another, clusters of spiritual essence were thrown into the starfire by Qin Sang. His movements were fast and slow, calm and unhurried, with a strange rhythm.
During this process, the Grey Oriole Sword was reforged. Since following Qin Sang, the Grey Oriole Sword has been reforged countless times.
Qin Sang was so focused on refining the weapon that she lost track of time.
He didn't know how much time had passed, but the spiritual materials and essence in front of him were almost gone. Suddenly, he stopped. He seemed to have thought of something, and temporarily stopped refining the weapon. The Thousand-Pound Ring flashed, and several streams of light flew out. Qin Sang actually took out the star spirit he had captured from the Moon Tower and threw one of them into the starfire.
The Protoss were imprisoned and powerless to resist, melting at a visible speed in the starlight.
Qin Sang's eyes flashed as she fused the two powers within the starfire, staring intently at the sword embryo within the flames, and then she was overjoyed.
"really!"
As it devoured this Protoss, the Grey Oriole Sword's spirituality actually grew stronger!
For spiritual treasures, spirituality is of paramount importance and the most difficult to enhance. No matter how many rare and precious materials one finds, it may not be possible to strengthen the spirituality of a spiritual treasure. Most cultivators can only nurture it over a long period of time.
However, spirituality is the most important condition for the advancement of a spiritual treasure. Without sufficient spirituality, it is impossible to give birth to a spirit or to refine a true treasure!
Qin Sang originally intended to use the Star Spirit to enhance his cultivation, but he did not expect that the Gray Oriole Sword would compete with him for the Star Spirit. He had not discovered this use of the Star Spirit before because it could only be done with the help of Starfire and a furnace.
After a moment's thought, Qin Sang decided to let the Grey Oriole Sword devour all the Star Spirits.
If Mo Yan succeeds, even more Star Spirits will be waiting for him to collect.
There was no time to wait here. There were so many demon saints outside, and who knew which one of them would be able to open the furnace. Fortunately, their attention was drawn to Yuanluo and Dou Su. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was disturbing him, Qin Sang wanted to use this time to complete the sword forging as soon as possible.
As the power of the Protoss was gradually absorbed by the Grey Oriole Sword, Qin Sang immediately threw in the second Protoss.
During this process, the spirituality of the Grey Oriole Sword gradually increased.
