Mo Hua continued to grasp the Melting Fire and Controlling Spirit Compound Formation, although progress was somewhat slow.Sometimes when he felt tired from studying, he would go and look at the large refining furnace, compare it with the Formation Diagram he designed, and simulate the potential challenges he would face while Drawing Formation. This helped clear his thoughts.While Mo Hua was observing the refining furnace and focusing his attention entirely on thinking about Drawing Formation, he suddenly looked up and saw Elder Yu standing next to him.It seemed that when Mo Hua was watching the refining furnace, Elder Yu had been watching him for quite some time, but it was unclear for how long.Elder Yu, seeing Mo Hua come back to his senses, asked kindly, “How is the study of the Formation going?”“I’ve learned about half of it, but it’s probably going to take some more time to fully understand it.”Elder Yu nodded, “You should balance work and rest, don’t overexert yourself.”“T

Mo Hua’s spirit was rejuvenated, and under the Formation Pivot structure of the First-grade Melting Fire Compound Formation, he added a Spirit Gathering Array.“Elder, do you have any Spirit Stones?” Mo Hua asked.“Spirit Stones?”Elder Yu didn’t understand the reason but still grabbed a handful of Spirit Stones as Mo Hua had asked and placed them beside Mo Hua.Mo Hua placed all the Spirit Stones on the Spirit Gathering Array.The Spirit Gathering Array could refine the Spirit Stones, absorb the Spiritual Energy, and convert it into Spiritual Power.According to the Formation Books, when the First-grade Compound Formation was in operation, the Spirit Gathering Array would automatically refine the Spirit Stones atop it, converting the stones into the Spiritual Power needed to drive the Formation and transmit it along the Formation Pivot.Afterward, Mo Hua found the node of the Formation Pivot and communicated with it through his Divine Sense.The moment communication was successful, a

Master Chen and a group of Artifact Refiners gathered together, flipping through the Artifice Manual, discussing how to refine the Refining Furnace.The Refining Furnace is a First-grade Spiritual Artifact, and since it is a large item, it posed both a challenge and an opportunity to these Artifact Refiners.As Loose Cultivators by origin, these Artifact Refiners, who had been refining year after year, had accumulated enough experience, yet, due to the lack of a First-grade Refining Furnace, they were unable to forge First-grade Spiritual Artifacts.Consequently, they were also unable to become First-grade Artifact Refiners.If they could refine this First-grade Refining Furnace and then take the opportunity to practice more, perhaps their artifact refining techniques could truly make a breakthrough, enabling them to become First-grade Artifact Refiners.Some of these Artifact Refiners had gray hair, almost one foot in the grave, and had been refining Spiritual Artifacts all their liv

Elder Yu laughed halfway with satisfaction, then snapped back to reality and glared at Mo Hua:“How can this be considered risky? This is being as cunning as a rabbit with three burrows! You should learn from this, always be more thoughtful in everything.”Mo Hua quickly nodded, “I will definitely learn more!”Being more thoughtful in everything is always a good thing, otherwise you’re bound to suffer losses in the future.“But things can’t possibly go that smoothly, right…” Mo Hua frowned and said.“Of course not,” Elder Yu said, “Plans are just plans, real situations are ever-changing, and you have to adapt accordingly. These are lessons I’ve learned over the years from dealing with the Qian Family, often at a loss.”Mo Hua couldn’t help but ask, “With such schemes, do you still suffer losses?”Elder Yu sighed, “What’s the use of being clever in planning if you don’t have any cards in your hand? It’s like trying to make a meal without any rice.”There weren’t many spirit stones, and

The Alchemy Furnace that was produced was quite large but still slightly smaller than the large Artifact Furnace in the courtyard. It sported a more primitive appearance, with more elegant cloud patterns, and its structure seemed a bit more complex.The formation within the Alchemy Furnace was similar to that of the Artifact Furnace, yet there were differences.What they had in common was the need for a Melting Fire Formation as a basis for supplying fire. The difference was that Artifact Refining relied more on the power of the flames, while Alchemy emphasized control over the heat and the harmonization of Spiritual Energy attributes.Mo Hua intended to draw on the Alchemy Furnace a type of Compound Formation called the First-grade Firewood Twin Cultivation Compound Formation.This Compound Formation also included two First-grade Formation Methods, one being the First-grade Melting Fire Formation and the other the First-grade Wood Spirit Formation. In addition, there were other funct
