164: Chapter 164: The Exquisite Treasure Tower Second Level 164: Chapter 164: The Exquisite Treasure Tower Second Level Huang Xiaolong’s Fighting Energy surged, causing the Exquisite Treasure Tower to emit an intense glow.
Shortly after, a flash of light appeared before Huang Xiaolong, and he found himself in a space.
This space was sowhat similar to the first level of the Exquisite Treasure Tower.
However, unlike the first level, where the ceiling was ford by the Fla Dragon Pearl and Spiritual Clouds of Dragon Fla Qi, the second level did not have these.
Above the second level of the Exquisite Treasure Tower lood an empty expanse, and at the center of the ground was a tripod furnace!
A six-legged furnace that seed to be cast from crystal stood there, and aside from this crystal-cast furnace, there was nothing else.
Huang Xiaolong stared at the crystal furnace in a daze.
Was this furnace used for Alchemy?
He had imagined that the second level of the Exquisite Treasure Tower might contain treasures higher in level than the Fla Dragon Pearl, or other Spiritual Objects that could enhance an Innate Expert.
However, he never anticipated that the second level would contain only a tripod furnace!
Huang Xiaolong walked around the crystal furnace, which was over a ter tall.
On its body, there were Ancient Runes and images of oddly-shaped demon beasts carved.
When Huang Xiaolong stepped forward and attempted to lift the furnace, he was astonished to find that he couldn’t lift it, despite how he circulated his Fighting Energy or Inner Strength.
The furnace remained completely immovable.
It seed that the furnace was fused as one with the Exquisite Treasure Tower!
Huang Xiaolong furrowed his eyebrows and pondered for a mont.
Then, he used the Shura Blade to cut his finger and dripped a drop of blood onto the furnace.
At that mont, the furnace trembled with light, and a humming sound echoed.
At the sa ti, new mories appeared in Huang Xiaolong’s mind.
They were about the furnace.
The furnace was called the Ten Thousand Beasts Tripod, and within it were two Innate Arrays.
One was nad the Devil Destruction Swallowing Array, and the other was called the Heaven and Earth Return to Origin Array.
The Devil Destruction Swallowing Array could devour everything into the Ten Thousand Beasts Tripod, and the Heaven and Earth Return to Origin Array could refine everything devoured into the tripod furnace back to their most primal form, condensing them into a pill!
When used together, the arrays had the miraculous power to devour everything and refine them into Elixir Pills!
Huang Xiaolong was shocked.
This was too terrifying!
According to the mory, as long as the person who possessed the Exquisite Treasure Tower was strong enough, the more powerful the Ten Thousand Beasts Tripod would beco when operated.
In the future, even devouring a Divine Mountain or an entire vast sea would pose no issue!
Following his shock, Huang Xiaolong felt an overwhelming elation in his heart.
To devour everything and refine it into pills—wouldn’t that an the better the material devoured, the higher its spiritual nature, the higher the grade of Spirit Pill produced?!
In the future, wouldn’t he be able to concoct as many Fourth Grade, Fifth Grade Elixir Pills as he wished?!
Huang Xiaolong’s eyes shone brightly.
After a long while, Huang Xiaolong managed to calm the excitent in his heart.
He then took out a Ten Extres Late Stage Peak Demon Pill, which he had extracted from a demon beast of the sa level.
As Huang Xiaolong circulated his Fighting Energy, the Ten Thousand Beasts Tripod flashed with light, and a formidable suction force erged, swallowing the Demon Pill from Huang Xiaolong’s hand.
Subsequently, the Heaven and Earth Return to Origin Array inside the tripod furnace began to rotate, the light from the Ten Thousand Beasts Tripod was brilliant, and it vibrated incessantly, emitting a crystal mist.
More than an hour later, the Ten Thousand Beasts Tripod finally ca to a stop.
Once the Ten Thousand Beasts Tripod stopped, a dazzling light shot up from the mouth of the tripod into the sky, and a thumb-sized, lustrous and fragrant black and gold Spirit Pill slowly flew out from inside.
A joy filled Huang Xiaolong’s heart.
With a single gesture, he drew the Spirit Pill into his hand and swallowed it.
Warm currents started to erge within his body.
Huang Xiaolong sat down cross-legged and began to circulate the Asura Technique to refine the dicinal power of the pill.
A while later, Huang Xiaolong stood up.
After ingesting and refining the Spirit Pill that had been concocted from the Ten Extres Late Stage Peak Demon Pill just now, it should have reached the level of a Fourth Grade High Stage Spirit Pill.
Fourth Grade High Stage!
Although Fourth Grade High Stage Spirit Pills are not as rare as Fifth Grade ones, they are still quite uncommon.
Even when auctioned, they can fetch high prices ranging from two to three hundred thousand Gold Coins.
As for a Ten Extres Late Stage Peak Demon Pill, it typically sells for around one hundred thousand in the market.
If a Ten Extres Late Stage Peak Demon Pill can be refined into a Fourth Grade High Stage Spirit Pill, then what about the Demon Cores of Innate Spiritual Beasts?
They can be used to produce Fifth Grade Spirit Pills!
Fifth Grade Spirit Pills are virtually impossible to buy with Gold Coins in Lutong Royal City.
The reason being that Fifth Grade Spirit Pills are extrely difficult to concoct, requiring a vast number of Spiritual dicines.
At least fifty to sixty different types are needed for one pill, each at least two to three hundred years old.
Moreover, concocting such a pill does not guarantee success, maintaining only a fifty percent success rate.
Huang Xiaolong sighed deeply.
Even for Innate Experts, Fifth Grade Spirit Pills are incredibly useful for their cultivation!
Surely in the Broken Blade Empire as well, Fifth Grade Spirit Pills would be highly sought after, right?
However, a frown soon creased Huang Xiaolong’s brow.
Just now, as he had channeled his Fighting Energy to propel the Ten Thousand Beasts Tripod for alchemy, it had nearly completely depleted the Nine Netherworld Fighting Qi in his body in just over an hour!
Now that he had made his breakthrough to Innate, the density of his Nine Netherworld Fighting Qi exceeded that of an ordinary Innate Second Order Expert, but even so, it was barely enough to refine a single Fourth Grade High Stage Spirit Pill.
If he were to hunt down an Innate Spiritual Beast later and use its Demon Core to concoct Fifth Grade Spirit Pills, wouldn’t it practically suck him dry?
“I’ll just have to find a way to solve this problem when the ti cos,” Huang Xiaolong thought to himself.
Afterwards, Huang Xiaolong erged from the Ancient Battlefield.
Outside, Zhao Shu, Yu Ming, and Fei Hou were already anxious, having waited for Huang Xiaolong who had been cultivating inside the Ancient Battlefield for three full days and nights.
Seeing Huang Xiaolong co out, a wave of relief washed over the three n.
Just then, Zhao Shu and Yu Ming stared at Huang Xiaolong with astonished faces.
With their Eye Power, they could naturally tell that there was a clear difference in Huang Xiaolong after he had co out from his closed-door cultivation compared to before he went in.
“Sect Leader, did you just break through to Innate?” Zhao Shu blurted out in surprise.
Fei Hou was taken aback as he regarded Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong looked at the expressions of the three and smiled, “I accidentally broke through.”
In Huang Xiaolong’s view, it really was an accident; he hadn’t expected to make the breakthrough so soon.
However, the words ‘accidentally broke through to Innate’ made Zhao Shu, Yu Ming, and Fei Hou feel dizzy with disbelief.
An Innate expert at seventeen!
If this news were to spread, it would surely shock the entire Snow Continent.
Even Zhao Shu, a resident of the Holy Domain, felt extrely shaken in his heart.
Following that, Huang Xiaolong inquired with Zhao Shu, Yu Ming, and Fei Hou on how to address the issue of excessive consumption of Fighting Energy when operating the Tripod Furnace Formation during alchemy.
Without much thought, Zhao Shu said, “You can use Spirit Stones instead.”
“Spirit Stones?” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes brightened, though it was the first ti he had heard of such things.
“Yes, Sect Leader, Spirit Stones are ore that form over many years from the condensation of nature’s spiritual energy, containing pure Spiritual Energy.
Typically, when Innate Experts concoct Fifth Grade Spirit Pills, they use Spirit Stones to drive the Tripod Furnace Formation.
The Spiritual Energy contained in one Third-grade Spirit Stone is generally sufficient to concoct a single Fifth Grade Spirit Pill,” explained Zhao Shu.
One Third-grade Spirit Stone for one Fifth Grade Spirit Pill.
Afterwards, Zhao Shu went on to explain that Spirit Stones co in various grades—Fifth Grade, Fourth Grade, Third Grade, Second Grade, and First Grade, with Fifth Grade being the lowest.
Above First Grade are Heavenly Grade Spirit Stones.
