Chapter 1314: The Southern Wilderness’ Longevity City

Even though the Inferno Emperor’s Furnace was only a gestation-level magic treasure, the concepts it embodied were relatively extraordinary.

Both Lin Feng and Xiao Yan had interacted with the Yan Heaven Crucible that the East Heaven’s Gate had captured before it was transferred to the Royal House of the Northern Tribes.

The Yan Heaven Crucible was remade by the East Heaven’s Gate, but it was still an invaluable magic treasure for forging pills. The Royal House of the Northern Tribes treated it like a national treasure, and any other nation or power inside the Divine Lands would also take this treasure especially seriously.

Both Lin Feng and Xiao Yan were positive that the Gestation-level Inferno Emperor’s Furnace before them was superior to the Yan Heaven Crucible when it was only at the level of Gestation.

The most powerful magic treasure in the human world of cultivation for manufacturing pills was naturally the Destiny-level magic treasure forged by Emperor Xia, the Crucible of the Divine Lands.

After the Crucible of the Divine Lands, there was the Great Void Sect’s Sun and Moon Divine Cauldron, the Heaven’s Gate Sect’s Yan Heaven Crucible and the Ancients’ Barren Celestial Cauldron, the Ancient Satanic Sect’s Heavenly Dao Crucible, Emperor Chong’s Primordial Mother’s Crucible, and then there was the Great Thunderclap Temple’s Bodhi Cauldron. All were Mahayana-level magic treasures and were the best magic treasures in the world for forging pills.

Most of the powerful parties in the human world of cultivation had such a magic treasure as part of t heir foundations. This kind of magic treasures were imperative in their respective rises to power.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders was expanding exponentially. Besides their unstoppable rise in status in the outside world, one of the most substantial reasons that came from within was their possession of the Crucible of the Divine Lands.

The continuous activation of the number-one magic treasure for manufacturing pills in the history of humanity, the Celestial Sect of Wonders would be able to manufacture unimaginable amounts of mystical pills and medicine as long as they had enough materials and resources.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders had four gates to the Starry Sea and they assumed control over the Ying Sea. They were the new number-one holy ground in the Divine Lands, and their plunders from the War of the Two Worlds were incalculable. This meant the Celestial Sect of Wonders no longer lakced any resources, and with the help of the Crucible of the Divine Lands, the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ overall strength instantly erupted with an explosive potential for growth.

It wouldn’t take long for results to show.

What the Celestial Sect of Wonders lacked most was time. Everything was happening at breakneck speed, while they had been attempting to rectify their shaky foundations and whatnot ever since the sect’s grand opening.

The person who was the most elated when the sect first obtained the Crucible of the Divine Lands was definitely Xiao Yan. However, for some special reasons, the relationship between Xiao Yan and the Crucible of the Divine Lands wasn’t all that good.

Ever since the events inside the Netherworld Sea, and when Emperor Xia’s evil soul was completely annihilated and released, their relationship gradually became friendlier and more amiable.

The most masterful person inside the Celestial Sect of Wonders at pill-forging and the number-one magic treasure in the history of the human cultivation world at the same craft started to form a camaraderie and chemistry.

Xiao Yan’s skills in forging pills were also gradually improving with his symbiotic relationship with the Crucible of the Divine Lands.

In his pill-forging contest with the Great Void Sect’s Qing Ning Holy Man and the Ancients’ Ling Jue Holy Man inside the Ancient Longevity World, he managed to bring home four top-tier spiritual pills from the Great Void Sect as well as the Ancient Longevity World’s Barren Spirit Spring.

The Way of the Celestial Being Golden Pill and the formulas for the four top-tier spiritual pills were eventually devised by the Celestial Golden Pavilion.

Xiao Yan learned a lot from studying and researching these formulas and recipes, and he was gradually able to consolidate his knowledge about crafting pills to improvise and create new things on his own.

There was a new recipe that belonged to Xiao Yan himself, something that had never appeared before inside the Grand Celestial World. It took its form inside Xiao Yan’s mind while he refined it consistently – it contained all kinds of profound principles and concepts,

Xiao Yan had invented his own formulas before, except it was on a lower tier. This time, his invention would be an all-new spiritual pill not inferior to the Trāyastriṃśa Elixir of Creation, the Ten Sages Golden Pill, the Way of the Celestial Being Golden Pill and the other top-tier pills and medicine.

Xiao Yan was gradually establishing camaraderie and chemistry with the Crucible of the Divine Lands, so his need for the Inferno Emperor’s Furnace wasn’t so urgent.

However, he wanted to create something to pass down through the Inferno Precipice’s lineage, so it would be more convenient for Tang Jun, Duan Muhong and the others to manufacture pills when they came of age. The Ethereal Heart Cauldon was useful to Duan Muhong and the others, but Tang Jun was already in the nascent soul intermediate stage and he gradually developed a feeling similar to how Xiao Yan felt back in the day – that the Ethereal Heart Cauldron couldn’t catch up with his rate of growth.

Xiao Yan would gain a lot from using his own mastery in forging pills to create the Inferno Emperor’s Furnace as he would obtain a better understanding of the art of forging pills.

Today, he felt as if everything was extremely clear. There were many thoughts and ideas that had accumulated in his mind over the years, and everything was thrown together in a cauldron and felt as if they were about to erupt at any moment.

Lin Feng chuckled and said, “Take your Inferno Emperor’s Precipice over to the Crucible of the Divine Lands.”

Even though he had a rough sketch inside his head and he had thought long and hard about it, creating a new and perfect pill formula required constant practical experience.

An enormous amount of resources and materials would be consumed during the process.

The other top-tier spiritual pills created over the course of history – Emperor Chong’s Ten Sages Golden Pill, Yan Xinghe’s Supreme Intelligence Divine Pill, the Life Substitution Heavenly Pill invented by the ancient Heaven’s Gate Sect’s Spiritual Heaven Holy Man, Emperor Xia’s Boundless Divine Pill, the Bodhi Treasure Pill created by one of Buddha’s Ten Great Disciples, Sariputra – amongst all other similar situations, all went through the same path and process.

Individuals paired their mastery with forging pills and their personal understanding of heaven and earth and the great Dao to forge pills. These top-tier pills were devised when these individuals reached a high level in both factors and they were able to consolidate their knowledge before they could create sparks with what they knew. These pills were ultimately perfected and gradually finalized after consistent practical experience and experiments, and after consumption of a large amount of resources.

However, the disturbance that Xiao Yan had generated was quite a big deal…

Lin Feng sat on top of a branch on the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree and channeled most of his energy to cultivating his own mantras and abilities. However, he released a strand of his consciousness to the Crucible of the Divine Lands and monitored Xiao Yan’s progress.

“Eh?!” Lin Feng was initially as relaxed as he could be, but his eyes immediately widened as he muttered, “Little bastard, walking the tightrope again.”

In the next moment, the Crucible of the Divine Lands shuddered vigorously!

Lin Feng watched his eldest disciple with slight annoyance and amusement at the same time. Xiao Yan had revealed his immortal soul avatar, the Flaming Taiji Diagram. The entire Taiji Diagram was in tatters, as if it had been torn apart and Xiao Yan was apparently heinously injured.

Fortunately, he had already grasped the profundities of the creation and destruction of Dao, so his Taiji Diagram quickly returned to normal and he reverted to his human form – except his face was a little pale.

Xiao Yan smiled sheepishly, “I took a tiny risk…”

He had almost caused an explosion in the crucible. Even though the Crucible of the Divine Lands was the magic treasure being used, and an explosion would only destroy the materials and damage Xiao Yan’s body while the crucible would remain intact, it would have still been a disaster if it did happen.

This could have been a harsh blow for Xiao Yan. Just when his mastery of the art of forging pills was at its peak and when it was flourishing, he was suddenly thrown back into the bottom of the abyss.

However, even though it was a risky endeavor, Xiao Yan succeeded.

He pranced before Lin Feng with a mischievous smile on his face. He waved one hand and formed a light screen in the sky. There were lines after lines of concepts and patterns on the light screen, and everything came together to form a complete pill formula.

Lin Feng hadn’t given up his mastery with forging pills over the years, and his understanding of the art of forging pills was superior to most others in the world. He reached level sufficient enough such that he didn’t have any trouble at all perusing Xiao Yan’s pill formula.

“Oh… Not bad, not bad…” Lin Feng studied it meticulously for a moment and nodded his head and Xiao Yan immediately passed over a small gourd. Lin Feng lifted its cap and streaks of golden smoke and mist effused from within.

Lin Feng perceived the medicinal power and concepts embodied inside the golden mist and the corner of his mouth curved into a smile. He turned towards Xiao Yan and asked, “Which batch is this?”

Xiao Yan chuckled and answered, “The sixth batch.”

Lin Feng continued, “My estimation is that you will need at least ten attempts before you can create something impeccable and achieve complete success.”

Xiao Yan patted the Crucible of the Divine Lands. “Some of the material used are quite valuable. I don’t think it will be difficult for the sect to collect them, but much time will be required. I think we should conserve as and when we can, so that we can create several batches of quality pills as fast as possible.”

He chortled and continued, “It may seem like I was taking a big risk. I had a roughly seventy-percent chance of success, and even if I did cause an explosion, at least the Crucible of the Divine Lands would have been fine, and we wouldn’t have lost much.”

Lin Feng glanced at him with a look of amusement. “If you did cause an explosion, I can protect you and the Crucible of the Divine Lands and all we would have lost would only have been some materials. However, the negative impact on your state of mind would have been irreparable. I didn’t protect you earlier so that you will remember this lesson. You little bastard – you will only pay more attention once you’ve felt the pain.”

Xiao Yan smiled mischievously as he heard Lin Feng’s comments and said, “Have I not succeeded?”

Lin Feng pointed at him and shook his head. “You… eh…”

Today, Lin Feng’s power and influence were becoming increasingly mighty. Xiao Yan himself was a giant, and a being that was close to becoming a legend. It was probably impossible for the outside world to see him like this, and he only displayed this side of him before Lin Feng.

“The Ancients’ have almost completed the Longevity City’s settlement inside the Southern Wilderness. They have invited many people from all over the world to observe the ceremony. You shall follow me to attend.” Lin Feng spoke as he handed the gourd back to Xiao Yan. Light shadows flickered beside him and the Avatar of Ares appeared. His original body wouldn’t proceed into the Southern Wilderness, so the Avatar of Ares would travel together with Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan grabbed the gourd and nodded his head in acknowledgement before he named a few disciples of his own to accompany him.

The company departed as soon as was possible and proceeded towards the Southern Wilderness.

It wasn’t Xiao Yan’s first time inside the Divine Lands’ Southern Wilderness. However, he could already feel the difference when he was still quite a distance away from this patch of land.

Even though the flow of spiritual energy still felt barren and disorganized, rhythms and veins were gradually starting to form, and they appeared to congregate towards one central point.

Lin Feng’s Avatar of Ares and Xiao Yan felt a tingling in their hearts at the same time. Both of them raised their heads, and the void space before them tore apart and a green-cloaked young girl stepped out from within. She was enchanting and charming like a blooming green lotus flower -Xiao Zhener.

A bright smile instantly broke out on Xiao Zhener’s face when she saw Xiao Yan. However, she greeted Lin Feng first before she spoke to Xiao Yan. “Master Lin’s arrival has brought honor and glory to the Longevity City.”

Lin Feng smiled and replied, “You’re too kind.”

He didn’t say anything more as he watched the pair before him in silence. Xiao Yan stepped forward to meet Xiao Zhener, and there was only elation in their eyes. Xiao Yan’s group of disciples all came forward to greet Xiao Zhener as well. “Greetings, Qing Ye Holy Woman.”

The company continued forward with Xiao Zhener leading the way, and a sprawling white city quickly drifted into everyone’s vision. It was brilliant and alluring in the vast barren plains of the Southern Wilderness.
