Chapter 107 Crow Furnace

Ji Bochang couldn't help but feel moved when he heard what Shopkeeper Hu said, and said seriously: "Please tell me clearly, Shopkeeper Hu."

"This is not really a secret..."

Shopkeeper Hu explained with a smile: "There is a method of controlling treasures called 'Blood Sacrifice' circulated in the cultivation world, which allows monks to control magic weapons, spiritual weapons, spiritual treasures and other treasures that are higher than their own cultivation level.

Fellow Daoist Ji must also be aware of the method of 'cultivation of life and soul' which is widely circulated in the spiritual world, and this method of 'blood sacrifice' was born out of this.

This method is quite useful…

For example, monks in the Qi Refining Stage can use this method to control the magic weapons used by monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage;

Monks in the Foundation Establishment stage can use this method to control the spiritual weapons used by monks in the Golden Core stage.

However, the method of ‘blood sacrifice’ is not without its drawbacks.

If a practitioner wants to use this method to control treasures, he must use his own essence and blood as a guide to cast the spell and nourish it. Moreover, if it is used against the enemy, it will put a huge burden on the caster's body.

There was a period of time in the world of spiritual practice where some disciples of powerful immortal clans were good at using this method to fight bravely...

Due to the heavy burden of fighting, there are many people who destroy their own foundation. Therefore, after this method became popular for a period of time, few people gradually used it.

Some large clans that suffered deeply from it even listed this method as a forbidden technique, and explicitly prohibited their disciples from practicing this method.

But there are always people who find another way...

For example, the group of people in Alchemy Garden specialize in alchemy. There are many alchemists like Daoist Ji who have insufficient cultivation but have a deep understanding of alchemy.

In order to pursue the elixir yield rate and elixir quality, some alchemists use the 'blood sacrifice' method to control magical weapons and spiritual weapon-level alchemy furnaces to refine elixirs.

The result is really good!

As long as the treasures controlled by the 'blood sacrifice' method are not used for fighting, the burden on the monk's body is completely acceptable.

Later, this method was spread among alchemists, weapon refiners, talisman seal masters and other auxiliary practitioners, and it can be regarded as a clever method."

"There is such a wonderful method~"

Ji Bochang was overjoyed when he heard this and asked expectantly: "I wonder if Shopkeeper Hu has a method of 'blood sacrifice' here?"

"What a coincidence, isn't it~"

Shopkeeper Hu raised his eyebrows, smiled, and joked: "Since I have spoken about this method, how can I not collect it?"

After saying that, he took out a jade slip from his storage bag and threw it into Ji Bochang's hand.

"Fellow Daoist Ji is my guest at Baibao Pavilion, and now he is married to Yu Jing. This can be regarded as a gift from me as the shopkeeper."

“Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Hu, for your kindness~”

Ji Bochang couldn't help laughing and said: "With the help of Shopkeeper Hu, wouldn't it be a pity if Ji didn't buy a magic weapon-level alchemy furnace in the pavilion while it's hot?"

"There are indeed several magic weapon-level alchemy furnaces in the pavilion."

Shopkeeper Hu shook his head and said: "But personally, I don't recommend that fellow Daoist Ji purchase these magical pill furnaces in the pavilion."

"oh?"

Ji Bochang was surprised when he heard this. Seeing the meaningful expression on his face, he seemed to have thought of something and asked with a smile: "So, does Shopkeeper Hu have a better recommendation for Ji?"

"good."

Shopkeeper Hu nodded slightly and said pointedly: "I think fellow Daoist Lai Ji should know that in two days, the Wanbao auction will begin.

The first Wanbao auction after the end of the Ancient Secret Realm, in order to attract casual cultivators from the market, the treasures are of extremely high quality."

"I've heard about this too."

Ji Bochang nodded thoughtfully and asked: "But there are high-quality alchemy furnaces in this Wanbao auction?"

"Um?"

Shopkeeper Hu frowned when he heard this and glanced at Gan Yujing beside him, and asked: "Isn't it possible that Ji Daoyou hasn't gotten the detailed list of items for this auction yet?"

Gan Yujing felt a sudden change in her heart when she saw this. She bowed her head and wring her fingers like a child who had done something wrong, as if she didn't dare to look directly into the shopkeeper's eyes.

"Shopkeeper Hu, don't blame me..."

Ji Bochang also heard the blame in his words, and he smiled and tried to smooth things over for his Taoist companion: "Yu Jing has already given me the detailed list of the lot, but I haven't had time to look at it yet."

"Then Daoist friend Ji should go back and take a look..."

Shopkeeper Hu smiled gratifiedly when he saw the partiality in his words, and then said with emotion: "Every time the ancient secret realm is opened, there are many casual cultivators who have been famous for many years and are trapped in it in order to find resources for cultivation.

This time is no exception…

I heard from an old friend at Dandingyuan that among the casual cultivators, there was a long-famous Huo Ya Taoist who was lost in this ancient secret realm.

Not only is he a late-stage practitioner of foundation building, he is also a second-level high-level alchemist with profound attainments in alchemy.

Although the Fire Crow Taoist was found in the ancient secret realm, his belongings were taken out and sent to the Wanbao Auction House.

One of them is called Baiya Lu, which is a natal magic weapon that Taoist Huo Ya obtained by chance in his early years.

The materials and refining methods of this treasure furnace are special. Not only can it be used to refine elixirs, but the monks' true fire can also be used to store some fire crow essences in the furnace as a means of defending against enemies.

Very mysterious...

Moreover, this treasure has been nurtured by Taoist Huo Ya Taoist for many years. It can be regarded as a top-level magic weapon. It can even be said that half of the furnaces have entered the category of spiritual weapons.

What a pity~

Following the death of Taoist Huo Yao, this Hundred Crow Furnace was also damaged. There was not much Fire Crow Essence left in the furnace, and its grade also dropped by two or three levels."

"Hundred Crows Furnace~"

When Ji Bochang heard this, he frowned and thought, and asked: "Shopkeeper Hu, do you mean that this Baicrow Furnace is very suitable for Ji's use?"

"good!"

Shopkeeper Hu nodded slightly and explained: "The Hundred Crow Furnace was put up for auction by my old friend from Dandingyuan, and he spoke highly of the furnace.

He also made it clear that if the spirit of the fire crow in the Hundred Crow Furnace is still there, he would be extremely enthusiastic."

"There is something unknown about Ji..."

Ji Bochang couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart and asked: "Since the Baicrow Furnace was damaged, can it still be used to make elixirs?"

"The furnace body is intact. What I mean by damage is the fire crow essence in the Hundred Crow Furnace."

Shopkeeper Hu seemed to have guessed that he had this question, and explained: "The refining method and materials used in the Baiya Furnace are rather special, and are not like the products from our southeastern region.

The unique thing about this furnace is that it can contain the essence of fire crows.

Nowadays, there is very little fire crow essence left in the Zhongbai Crow Furnace, and it is almost impossible to rely on it to defend against enemies. It can only be regarded as a magic weapon-level alchemy furnace.

My old friend once said that if we wanted to re-cultivate the fire crow spirits in the Hundred Crow Furnace, it would probably take at least one hundred and eighty years.

The foundation building period only lasts for three hundred years.

With those one hundred and eighty years of hard work, those who can achieve the golden elixir should also achieve the golden elixir, and those who cannot achieve the golden elixir should be buried in the grave."

He smiled meaningfully as he spoke, and then said: "But Fellow Daoist Ji is different. If I read correctly, Fellow Daoist Ji is not yet fifty years old?"

"Ji is indeed less than fifty years old."

Ji Bo often nodded thoughtfully when he heard the words, and he seemed to understand the meaning of his words.

The Hundred Crow Furnace is now a half-used magic weapon and can only be used as an alchemy furnace, but its foundation is very good. If you spend some time cultivating it, you may be able to cultivate it back to its peak state.

It just takes a long time to cultivate, which makes the audience feel embarrassed. After all, except for alchemists, who is willing to go to the trouble and time to cultivate an alchemy furnace?

Secondly, except for some newly promoted monks in the foundation-building stage, most of the powerful mid-to-late-stage foundation-building monks are over a hundred years old, and the time required to cultivate the Hundred Crow Furnace is too long.

After cultivating it for one hundred and eighty years, there is no shortage of top-notch magic weapons that can achieve the golden elixir;

If you cannot achieve the golden elixir, you may not be able to use it until you die.

And I am only in my fifties, and my cultivation has not yet reached the foundation-building stage, but I happen to be a second-level alchemist. If nothing unexpected happens and I can establish the foundation, a hundred years from now will be the right time...

"What a coincidence..."

Uncle Ji smiled knowingly and said: "Ji is currently short of a magic weapon-level alchemy furnace. He happens to have plenty of time and money. It would be a pity not to take pictures of this Hundred Crow Furnace."

"Hehehe, it should be so~"

Shopkeeper Hu also smiled indifferently, and then said: "But if Fellow Daoist Ji wants to take a picture of the Baicrow Furnace, he may have to prepare more spiritual stones."

"Why?"

Ji Bochang asked rather puzzlingly: "According to what Shopkeeper Hu said, the Hundred Crow Furnace is now only effective as an alchemy furnace, and its audience is also small. Is there anyone else who covets it besides alchemists?"

"The audience for Bai Ya Lu today is not large, and there shouldn't be too many people taking pictures."

Shopkeeper Hu said with a smile: "But the seller is also a thoughtful person. He knew that the Baiyao stove had limited effect after being damaged and the audience was narrow. It would definitely not fetch a high price if sold alone, so he bundled it with other things and auctioned it.

"

"Bundled auction?"

Ji Bochang was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then asked with a slight frown: "Ji has only heard of bundling and selling things, but he has never heard of bundling and auctioning things.

If all Wanbao auctions are like this, then can Ji be able to put together a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill and a bottle of low-grade Foundation Establishment Pill for auction?"

"Ji Daoyou doesn't know something..."

Shopkeeper Hu shook his head with a wry smile and explained: "If it were normal, we would definitely not allow the auction items to be bundled and auctioned, and we would not be able to make this opening.

But what the seller wants to bundle with Baiyalu for auction is not a side item, but the cultivation technique practiced by Taoist Huoya.

The seller even made it clear that the Baicrow Furnace and its main practice are mutually exclusive, so they should be sold together to someone who is destined, and we really can't refuse."
