355 Cyan Spiritual Pill (1/2)
Mo Wen sat on the cattail hassock in the dim secret chamber. A small red cauldron furnace floated beside him, revolving slowly. There was a mass of golden flame surrounding the Flame Divine Furnace, causing the small furnace to be particularly bright.
Those who were meticulous would discover that the golden flame was wrapped with a layer of invisible flame on the outside. That flame was difficult to see with the naked eye. Its existence could only be discovered through the distorted space in its surroundings.
That invisible flame was not an ordinary flame but the flame of Spiritless Clean Fire. Mo Wen didn't exactly know about this thing. He only knew that the Spiritless Clean Fire was one of the functions of the Flame Divine Furnace that was able to increase the success rate of concocting pills, or rather, it would increase the effect of a concocted pill.
However, according to what he knew, the medicine sage, Ji Wuya, didn't seem to know too much about the Spiritless Clean Fire, either. When Ji Wuya received the Flame Divine Furnace, the Spiritless Clean Fire was already in it. When he was concocting pills, the Spiritless Clean Fire would appear automatically and was always able to increase the level of the pills. Because of this, Ji Wuya was able to have shocking achievements in the path of alchemy.
However, he didn't know what exactly the Spiritless Clean Fire was or where it was hidden in the Flame Divine Furnace. He had been researching it for hundreds of years but still knew nothing in the end. However, he was very certain that the Flame Divine Furnace definitely had secrets in it that he didn't know.
Once when he was researching the Flame Divine Furnace, he discovered that there was a hidden practice inscription on the furnace's inner wall. That practice inscription would not normally appear. It would only appear after the Spiritless Clean Fire had appeared during the concocting of pills.
Ji Wuya had accidentally discovered this secret, so he recorded the practice inscription and followed its instructions for practicing. It turned out that he managed to produce a Spiritless Clean Fire from nothing, which caused him to be utterly surprised.
At that time, he knew that the inscription on the inner part of the Flame Divine Furnace was actually the method of practicing Spiritless Clean Fire. That secret flame could actually be produced through practicing and had a terrifying power.
During the next few days, Mo Wen was researching Ji Wuya's heritage in the secret chamber and trying to digest the extensive knowledge of the heritage that was as vast as the sea. He was hoping to find the path of Immortal Cultivation in it.
Unfortunately, it was indeed very difficult for a mortal to practice Immortal Cultivation, as it was particular about one's aptitude, spiritual roots, and age. Mo Wen's present age was not suitable for Immortal Cultivation, and his aptitude for Immortal Cultivation was not very good. He had attempted it once before, and it turned out to be more difficult to practice Immortal Cultivation now than it had been during his past lifetime.
If he insisted on practicing Immortal Cultivation, he might have difficulty in accomplishing anything in this life. In that case, he might as well just practice ancient martial arts.
In Ji Wuya's heritage memory, there were many methods of enabling mortals to transform completely into geniuses in Immortal Cultivation. There was even a method of becoming a Mighty Immortal Cultivator immediately in one giant leap.
However, the prerequisites for those methods were as difficult to fulfill as going to heaven. They were not any extraordinary Sacred Medicine, they were merely some extraordinary good fortune or extraordinary remarkable powers which would be able to restructure the mortal body at an exorbitant price. These methods were almost impossible. Instead of pinning hopes on those unrealistic methods, it would be better to practice quietly and perhaps a miracle might happen one day.
In a nutshell, Mo Wen didn't find the suitable path of Immortal Cultivation and couldn't help feeling disappointed. However, he didn't come away from Ji Wuya's heritage memory empty-handed. He discovered two kinds of remarkable powers that were not restricted to Immortal Cultivators. Mo Wen was surprised and excited that the two remarkable powers could be practiced by those who were not Immortal Cultivators.
Previously, he had never heard of any remarkable powers that could be practiced by those who were not Immortal Cultivators. Moreover, the power was shocking and strong beyond imagination. One of the two remarkable powers was the Spiritless Clean Fire. One didn't need to be an Immortal Cultivator to practice it and only needed to fulfill the prerequisite of having a Flame Divine Furnace by one's side.
Mo Wen naturally had fulfilled this prerequisite, and obviously, there was definitely a secret connection between the Spiritless Clean Fire and the Flame Divine Furnace. Otherwise, why would there be a need for the Flame Divine Furnace to be by one's side in order to practice it? Without the Flame Divine Furnace, even an Immortal Cultivator would be unable to practice Spiritless Clean Fire.
From Ji Wuya's memory, Mo Wen knew that the Spiritless Clean Fire was not simple, as it was a rare great remarkable power and was almost as great as any other remarkable power. The terror of its power was very shocking, even to Ji Wuya.
In the heritage memory, even Ji Wuya didn't dare to use Spiritless Clean Fire casually. In his life, the number of times he had used Spiritless Clean Fire was limited. He would not use it unless he had no other choice.
Other than being terrifying, the greatest disadvantage of Spiritless Clean Fire was that it was difficult to control. Spiritless Clean Fire was colorless and formless, but more intractable than any primitive beast, and its frenzied strength was enough to burn a Mighty Immortal Cultivator into ashes. If one was unable to control that flame, one might harm oneself and have a miserable ending. Hence, Ji Wuya had warned in the heritage memory that those who didn't have great perseverance and courage shouldn't practice this remarkable power.
Besides the Spiritless Clean Fire, the other remarkable power was the Divine Soul Trillion Layers, which was not a usual method of remarkable power, but was a kind of secret method of practicing the godly spirit.
Even in the Immortal Cultivation world there were very few secret methods of practicing the godly spirit, and every method was precious. Regardless of the Immortal Cultivator Sect, it would be collected and viewed as a treasure.
This Divine Soul Trillion Layers was different from the normal secret method of practicing the godly spirit. Its prerequisite was very simple – any living thing with a spirit was able to practice it. In other words, a normal person could also practice a great remarkable power of the Immortal Cultivation world, and even a cat or a dog could naturally practice it if they knew how to practice. It could be said that the Divine Soul Trillion Layers didn't have any barrier of entry, and everyone on earth could practice it.
However, though this remarkable power seemed to have a low prerequisite, the difficulty of the practice was extremely high. If a trillion people practiced, only one would be successful. It was so difficult that from a certain perspective, it was purely based on luck.
