Chapter 847 - 947: Teach Me Artifact Refining Next Time
This three-headed alchemy furnace exudes a metallic sheen and occasionally sparkles, which made Ye Tianfan fall in love with it immediately!"Stop staring, this isn't a good Magical Treasure. You've heard the saying 'the truly divine conceals its brilliance', haven't you?" Bai Feng asked Ye Tianfan!
"I've heard that saying before, what's up?" Ye Tianfan asked curiously.
"Divine objects conceal their brilliance, but this alchemy furnace is flashing all over, as if it wants to directly tell you it's a good thing. That can only mean the quality of this alchemy furnace isn't great, so it tries hard to show off!" Bai Feng shook his head and said, seeming indifferent to the alchemy furnace he made!
"You use this one for now, because if I make a better alchemy furnace for you, it might actually hinder your alchemy practice. So this is for you to use for now. When you can make intermediate-level pills, I'll ask my master to make a Rare Magical Treasure level furnace for you. For now, make do with this high-grade Magical Treasure level furnace!" Bai Feng said.
"I currently can't forge Rare level Magical Treasures, and I have a high failure rate even with top-grade ones. So when you reach the next stage, I'll have to ask my master to forge one for you!" Bai Feng explained.
"No worries, who knows, by the time I can make intermediate-level pills, you might be able to forge Rare level Magical Treasures!" Ye Tianfan encouraged him.
"I say, you do know what a Rare level Magical Treasure represents, don't you?" Bai Feng responded with a dark expression to Ye Tianfan's comforting words, but immediately remembered that Ye Tianfan might not really know the significance of Rare level Magical Treasures, considering he started with Supreme level ones. His only Rare level Magical Treasure, the Fire Lotus Sword, had also upgraded to Supreme level, albeit the lowest of that kind.
But even then, it belonged to the Supreme level, a qualitative change in treasures!
"Of course, I understand!" Ye Tianfan retorted defiantly, thinking it's just one level below Supreme after all!
Hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Bai Feng thought to himself, Ye Tianfan really doesn't understand Magical Treasures. He explained further, "Don't underestimate the gap between Rare and Supreme levels; it's worlds apart. From ordinary to high-grade treasures, the gap is manageable. Even from high-grade to top-grade, it's not insurmountable.
But from top-grade to Rare level, the gap is vast, very difficult to bridge, and from Rare to Supreme, it's practically impossible to supplement!
Let me tell you this: my master, Yuan Chu, has been able to forge Rare level Magical Treasures for a long time now, but advancing to Supreme has been a repeated challenge, failing many times, especially on the aspect of durability!
Also, if my cultivation isn't at the Bai Hui stage, I can't forge Rare level Magical Treasures, not just because of the materials—but I can't even melt the rare ores without reaching Bai Hui stage!"
Ye Tianfan nodded thoughtfully at Bai Feng's words, understanding that even at the Wan Xuan level, one can forge top-grade treasures, but without reaching Bai Hui stage, it's impossible to craft Rare treasures because of inadequate spiritual power. The flame produced can't melt the metal ores!
It seems artifact refining has its limitations too, not just alchemy. It's reasonable, after all, limitations are normal. Otherwise, if someone used a treasure to store spiritual power as a source, then wouldn't everything go haywire? Artifact refining would lose its value!
Similarly for medical cultivation, even if there's enough spiritual power, spiritual power itself acts as a limit, so you can't practice rapidly!
After accepting the alchemy furnace, Bai Feng told Ye Tianfan, "There's no need to consecrate this alchemy furnace. Just use it to make pills for now. When you get a new furnace, you'll have to return this one to us at Taiqi Peak's storage, so others can use it too. As you know, this is an advanced level three-headed furnace."
Ye Tianfan rolled his eyes at Bai Feng's words, replying, "Yeah, yeah. Look at you, acting all miserly, like I owe you something. Also, if it explodes, you'll have to make me a new one!"
"Explodes?" Bai Feng reacted dramatically upon hearing this, jumping up and shouting at Ye Tianfan, "You talk about exploding furnaces with me? You have no idea, I've set emergency protocols for this furnace. Even if your pill explodes, the furnace won't!"
Seeing Bai Feng's strong reaction, Ye Tianfan asked, puzzled, "Why are you reacting so strongly?"
"Reacting strongly? You saying an explosion to me is an insult, an affront to my skills," Bai Feng said indignantly. "I'm telling you, with anyone else but you, I'd blacklist them and never forge any Magical Treasures for them!"
"Okay, okay! Don't be mad, I didn't know. I apologize, I'm sorry, don't be angry!" Ye Tianfan quickly apologized, realizing he was wrong but seeing Bai Feng's strong reaction, and knowing Bai Feng is his friend, he quickly apologized!
"Alright, alright." Bai Feng waved his hand, indicating he was no longer angry. "But be careful in the future. Saying my furnace will explode is like saying your pills could poison someone!"
Ye Tianfan nodded quickly, acknowledging, "Got it, got it. I'll be careful next time!"
Seeing Ye Tianfan's sincere attitude in admitting his mistake, Bai Feng nodded in approval.
"Alright, the alchemy furnace is done, so I'll leave now. Once I'm skilled in alchemy, you've got to teach me artifact refining!" Ye Tianfan said.
"Sure, as long as you come to me, I'll share everything I know without reservation."
Ye Tianfan waved goodbye and turned to leave in the direction they had come!
This time, Ye Tianfan went from the Artifact Refining Room to the square at Taiqi Peak, then took off, without encountering any acquaintances again. Besides Bai Feng, Ye Tianfan didn't have any other acquaintances at Taiqi Peak!
