Chapter 217: Refining the Treasure

After the beast head absorbed the Spiritual Power, a demonic red light appeared in its eyes, and it buzzed and trembled slightly.

Lin Xuan’s expression became more serious. He placed his hands together and began to recite an incantation. The Spiritual Power in his body started to sizzle like boiling water.

“Rise!”

Lin Xuan let out a soft cry, and once again used a Magic Art.

With a bang, a pillar of fire a few feet high was ejected from the Beast Head’s wide-open mouth. The temperature of the entire cultivation room suddenly rose sharply and Lin Xuan’s face showed a hint of happiness. Unlike ordinary Earth-Fire, this fire column was bright red, and there was actually a trace of golden flames.

The temperature was much lower than that of the Pure Yang Fire.

However, this was only the first step, Lin Xuan didn’t intend to relax at all. Instead, he took a deep breath, circulated the Spiritual Power in his body, and then slowly opened his mouth, spitting out a slender scarlet-white flame.

Innate True Fire!

It was impossible to refine treasures only using Earth Fire. Only by branding one’s own mark into them could one achieve unity of mind and spirit.

After Lin Xuan spewed out the Innate True Fire, he carefully manipulated it into the Earth Fire.

First, merge the two…

An hour later.

The Beast head stopped spurting fire, and the Alchemy room returned to normal. Lin Xuan sat quietly on the ground, his face showing neither anger nor happiness.

After a short while, he sighed and restarted the Magic Art to activate the Earth Fire. It was really not that easy to refine treasures. Before he had even started to refine the Mystic Fire God Pearl, the first step of merging both flames ended in failure.

After recollecting the process, Lin Xuan tried again.

This time, when the beast head spurted out the pillar of fire, Lin Xuan did not rush to fuse it with the Innate True Fire but pondered for a while. Then raised both hands, and hit dozens of Spiritual Power streams into the pillar of fire in front of him.

After the fire column absorbed the Spiritual Power, it began to deform strangely.

Soon, the entire fire column was aggregated together. And a fireball about one meter in diameter appeared in the air.

Lin Xuan nodded in satisfaction, and another trace of Spiritual Power spurted out from his fingertips and sank into the head of the beast.

The beast head trembled slightly. The flames it emitted then gradually reduced, and finally shrank to about the thickness of a thumb, just enough to maintain the consumption rate of the fireball.

There were already drops of sweat on his forehead, but there was no time to rest. He levitated into the air, opened his mouth, and spurted the scarlet-white Innate True Fire a second time.

The Innate True Fire was originally very thin, but as it was suspended in midair, Lin Xuan kept spurting more. More and more were gathered which then finally formed a fist-sized ball of light.

At this point, Lin Xuan’s complexion turned pale, and his Spiritual Power was exhausted. But fortunately, he was prepared. He swallowed a few Foundation Establishment Pills and Spirit Replenishing Pills.

After the power of the pill took effect in his body, he felt a languid feeling in his Dantian again. He calmed down and took a short rest. Then pulled himself together and manipulated the two fireballs to merge.

There was still rejection at the beginning, but it was obviously much smaller than the resistance before.

Lin Xuan controlled it carefully.

Finally, the two fireballs combined into one, no longer separate from each other.

Lin Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. The most difficult step has been completed. With this flame comparable to the Pure Yang Fire of Core Formation Stage cultivators, the following steps would be much easier.

He waved his hand. The Mystic Fire God Pearl flew past him and entered the center of the fireball. Lin Xuan then opened his mouth and once again spewed out a stream of slender Innate True Fire and added it into the fireball.

This refining lasted nearly forty-nine days.

Although he mostly relied on the Earth Fire, and the Innate True Fire was just to inscribe his own mark, Lin Xuan was very tired.

Fortunately, the pills were sufficient.

In fact, the consumption of Spiritual Power was not a big deal.

The key was that in the midnight, night, and noon of every day, he had to compress the Vital Qi in his body into a ball of light. Then spray it into the Mystic Fire God Pearl.

This was similar to the way that Core Formation cultivators use Pure Yang Fire to refine their Magic Artifacts.

This was just an alternative method for Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators. Of course, the hidden dangers were also very obvious, as it would greatly deplete the practitioner’s Vital Qi. Although their life wouldn’t be in danger, their cultivation base would fall if they didn’t supplement it.

Of course, Lin Xuan didn’t have to worry about it.

That batch of “Jing Yuan Powder” wasn’t just for show.

Each time he spat out a mouthful of Vital Qi, he would take one pill.

Which supplemented his deficiency.

But soon, a crisis arrived again. It was not because of an accident while refining, but it took longer than expected.

According to the Jade slip, it would take about nine to fifteen days to refine this kind of ancient treasure. With peace of mind, he prepared a full furnace of “Jing Yuan Powder”, which was about one hundred grains.

Originally, with so many pills that can last a month, he thought that it was definitely enough.

Probably because the situation of various ancient treasures is different, or the introduction in the Jade slip might not have been accurate, refining this Mystic Fire God Pearl took more time than expected. After taking the Jing Yuan Powder for thirty days, it was finished.

At this point, Lin Xuan was faced with two choices, either to give up and stop refining this treasure: Of course, giving up halfway will definitely not lead to a good end. The Mystic Fire God would definitely be wasted, and its power would not even be as good as when using the general method of refinement. At most, it would be equivalent to a Top-grade Spirit Tool.

Or he’d stick to it. After all, he had refined more than half of this treasure, and it had been very smooth before. As long as he struggled to complete it, its power might exceed his expectations, and he could probably unleash half of its magical powers.

What to choose?

Lin Xuan struggled for a while, but then he chose to grit his teeth and persist, after all, it was not his style to give up halfway.

How could he just watch as this Magic Artifact was about to be turned into waste!

In addition, his “Nine Heavens Profound Art” was a Top-grade Cultivation Method. And its most important feature was to have a solid foundation.

Even if his Vital Qi was greatly exhausted, as long as he consumed more Jing Yuan Powder as soon as possible, his realm would not fall. In one sentence, he’d keep trying his best!
