I rely on farming to transform the world of cultivation.

Chapter 356 The Furnace of Return
"Senior, are you saying they obtained their cultivation techniques from that member of the Holy Clan? Wait, didn't you say they didn't have the aura of the Holy Clan's cultivation techniques on them?"

Fang Chen finally realized that something seemed off.

Earlier, Zhu Yueyao mentioned that she had not sensed the aura of the Holy Clan's cultivation techniques on the Dian Chu brothers.

According to Dian Chu, their cultivation level was achieved by using the techniques they obtained from that member of the Holy Clan, which allowed them to reach the Myriad Manifestations Realm within ten years.

"No, that's not true. It's because they don't actually practice the Holy Clan's cultivation method. Besides, this method is quite useful for you and can quickly improve your cultivation level."

Zhu Yueyao also answered this question.

She had already noticed what Fang Chen could.

Therefore, the moment Dian Chu presented the cultivation technique, she examined the blood-red jade slip.

Because the techniques recorded therein were so exquisite, neither she nor Yue Yunni uttered a sound during Fang Chen's subsequent conversation with Dian Chu.

Except for the time when Fang Chen asked him on his own initiative.

Otherwise, they would have directly explained why gods cannot become saints.

There's no need for Fang Chen to ask Dian Chu.

Seeing Zhu Yueyao's high praise for the technique, Fang Chen immediately realized that this was not the body cultivation technique he had thought it was, so he immediately took out the blood-red jade slip and began to examine it.

"The Ruins Furnace Method?"

As soon as Fang Chen probed the jade slip with his spiritual sense, he saw the name of the cultivation technique.

"Although this is the first time I've seen this technique, its power is comparable to supreme Dao techniques. Do you remember the Bloodthirsty Divine Art you once obtained? It seems that the secret technique originated from this technique."

Zhu Yueyao's voice rang out; having read the cultivation technique beforehand, she explained it to Fang Chen.

"The Bloodthirsty Divine Art actually originated from this technique? Wait, I remember Old Lin saying that the Bloodthirsty Divine Art is divided into two parts, the mother and the child. Could it be that the Returning to the Void Furnace Technique is the so-called mother part of the Bloodthirsty Divine Art?"

Fang Chen quickly recalled that when Lin Qingshan confessed his past to him, he said that there were two chapters of the Bloodthirsty Divine Art among demonic cultivators, and the one he obtained was the sub-chapter.

Once they encounter the mother story, everything will be taken away immediately.

Judging from Zhu Yueyao's description, this Returning to the Ruins Furnace Technique should be the mother chapter of the Bloodthirsty Divine Skill.

Zhu Yueyao was not very familiar with what happened at the time, so she did not comment.

Fang Chen continued reading the Guixu Furnace Method.

Sure enough, the content was very familiar to him, mostly from the Bloodthirsty Divine Skill.

That would be a bit of a reversal of the Heavenly Gang theory; the Bloodthirsty Divine Skill was originally derived from excerpts from the Returning to the Void Furnace Method.

Despite the deletion of many core paragraphs, it is still a supreme immortal technique.

No wonder both Tianyu in the past and Zhu Yueyao now believe that it is no weaker than the Supreme Dao Technique.

"So that's how it is. No wonder practitioners of the Bloodthirsty Divine Art have everything taken away when they encounter someone who has mastered the Returning Void Furnace Technique, because they are missing the most core Returning Void Furnace."

After carefully reviewing it, Fang Chen discovered that the Bloodthirsty Divine Art and the Returning to the Void Furnace Technique had a more than 90% overlap. The deleted and modified content was all to cover up the core of this technique.

A special magical artifact—the Ruins Furnace.

It can devour all the energy in the world and convert it into its own power.

Extremely domineering.

Of course, the Ruins Furnace has no physical form; it is composed of pure energy.

If the Ruins Furnace is constructed using spiritual energy, then this Ruins Furnace can only devour energy of the same or lower level as spiritual energy.

Fortunately, the energy absorbed by the Ruins Furnace can also be used to strengthen its own energy level.

"This technique directly points to the origin of the Devouring Dao. Any related secret techniques or techniques are insignificant compared to it. Moreover, the entire technique is balanced and peaceful, unlike ordinary Devouring secret techniques or techniques that can affect one's mind."

Yue Yunni, who had remained silent until now, also offered her evaluation of the Guixu Furnace Method.

“What you say is true, senior. But why did the Dian brothers obtain this cultivation technique from that member of the Holy Clan?” Fang Chen, who had roughly read through the cultivation technique, agreed with Yue Yunni’s opinion. However, he was more concerned about why that member of the Holy Clan had this cultivation technique.

Moreover, this cultivation technique has intricate connections with demonic cultivation.

After all, the classic demonic cultivation technique, Bloodthirsty Divine Art, originated from it.

"Right, demonic cultivators!"

Thinking of the demonic cultivators, Fang Chen realized that there were two people more likely to know the secrets.

Zhao Ziying and Yue Li.

The two were once leaders of the Demonic Cultivator Alliance, so they must have a great deal of knowledge about the Bloodthirsty Divine Art and the Returning to the Void Furnace Technique.

So he immediately took out the Divine Mirror of Destiny and contacted the two of them.

"Your Majesty, did the Moon Goddess and the Blood God succeed?"

Before Fang Chen could even speak, the two of them asked the same question in unison.

Previously, they were enshrined as ghosts and gods, mainly to provide divine power to the Moon God and the Blood God, enabling the two to fight against the avatars of the Hundred Thoughts Ancestor.

As former companions of the moon goddess, the two of them were naturally very concerned about the outcome of this battle.

"Don't you two trust me? Bai Nian Tianzu's understanding of the Dao has been stagnant, while I have experienced life and death and my understanding of the Dao is no less than hers. In addition, my Dao is inherently restraining Bai Nian Tianzu, so she has no chance of winning against me."

Just as Fang Chen was about to answer, Yue Yunni spoke first.

Clearly, using the bodies of the Dian Chu brothers to fight a fair fight against Bai Nian Tian Zu's clone and easily win would be something she could boast about.

"As expected of the Moon Goddess."

Zhao Ziying and Yue Li smiled upon hearing this, and then said to Fang Chen, "I apologize, Your Majesty, for asking such a question right away."

"It's nothing. I mainly wanted to ask you about the Bloodthirsty Divine Art. How much do you know about it?"

Fang Chen waved his hand to show his magnanimity, and without wasting words, went straight to the point.

"Blood Devouring Divine Art? Your Majesty would be better off not practicing this secret technique. The Blood Demon Palace's secret technique has two parts, the mother and the child. Unless you obtain the mother part, you will only be doing the work for someone else."

Upon hearing the words "Bloodthirsty Divine Skill," Zhao Ziying was initially stunned, but quickly realized what was happening and advised Fang Chen against cultivating it.

Fang Chen didn't hide anything and told the two that he had obtained what appeared to be the mother chapter of the Guixu Furnace Method.

"Is there such a thing?"

The two did not continue to answer, but instead exchanged for the Returning to the Void Furnace Technique in the Spirit Mirror. After roughly reading it, they spoke again, saying, "This is indeed the mother chapter of the Bloodthirsty Divine Art."

Yue Li picked up the conversation and continued, "As far as we know, both the Blood Devouring Divine Art and the Returning Ruins Furnace Technique are unique techniques created by the Blood Demon Palace. Since the Blood Demon Palace has always wanted to bypass the two of us and contact the Holy Race alone, it is not surprising that they offered the Returning Ruins Furnace Technique to the Holy Race."

Zhao Ziying shrugged. Although he had once been the leader of the Demon Cultivator Alliance, the Demon Cultivator community was a mixed bag, especially the Blood Demon Palace, which had the strongest tendency to become independent.

If it weren't for their ability to help plunder spiritual roots and assist the two in completing their final plan, Zhao Ziying wouldn't have tolerated them.

"I see. So, to find out more about the Ruins Furnace Technique, we still need to find the higher-ups at the Blood Demon Palace?"

Fang Chen nodded; their answers had cleared up his doubts.

Unfortunately, they didn't know much about the Ruins Furnace Method either.

"That's right. Fortunately, His Majesty has re-established his spies in the Immortal Spirit World, so finding the people from the Blood Demon Palace is only a matter of time."

After the communication ended, although no useful information was obtained, it was confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the Ruins Furnace Method.

Fang Chen then began to condense the Returning Void Furnace according to the instructions in the cultivation technique.

The Ruins Furnace can greatly increase the speed at which spiritual energy is converted into magical power, just as Zhu Yueyao said, enabling him to quickly improve his cultivation.

The enemies he would face in the future were getting stronger and stronger, and his Foundation Establishment cultivation was really holding him back.
