Night without Borders

Chapter 118: Nearly Immortal Things
In the center of the giant pit, crystallization is more serious, the ground is bare and bumpy, and it is impossible for the imagined elixir to take root and grow here.

What is here can be seen at a glance. Qin Ming's eyes are eager, and he has already stood in front, looking at the fairy-like thing just a few feet away.

It was a severely damaged furnace body with some holes on it, but even in such a bad condition, it was still emitting fairy light and was surrounded by auspicious clouds, with white mist filling the furnace mouth.

Moreover, it is accompanied by strange visions. From time to time, there are scenes of elixir being formed in the light fog, with dragons and tigers working together, and elixir qi rising into the sky, as if the furnace is about to be opened to release some miraculous medicine.

This was the reason why Chen Shuhang and Jiang Congyun suddenly attacked Qin Ming. Seeing the expansion of the Dan Qi and the roar of dragons and leaps of tigers, they immediately became dizzy, thinking that there were some elixir left.

Just from these wonders, we can tell that the alchemy furnace is truly extraordinary. Even after thousands of years, it can still produce such extraordinary scenes, which is far beyond imagination.

It was small in size, only as high as a palm, and was engraved with many runes. The lid of the furnace was half broken and fell to the side.

"No wonder those old guys didn't take it away and left it to the descendants. This thing is leaking and is too badly damaged."

Qin Ming counted and found that there were nine holes on the palm-high furnace body, not counting some cracks, and a piece of the furnace cover was missing.

"Can such a small furnace be used to refine weapons?" He was a little confused, because in the emitted light, there was a hazy scene of refining weapons.

Qin Ming showed a look of surprise, thinking that this almost immortal thing might have other magical uses.

The furnace itself looks very simple and ancient, but auspicious clouds are entwined on the outside.

Qin Ming didn't dare to touch it with his hands. He pulled out the mutton-fat jade iron knife to test it. Finding that it didn't react, he tapped it lightly with his fingertips.

The stove made a clear metallic echo, like a bell being struck.

After confirming that there was no problem, Qin Ming took action, picked it up from the ground, held it in his palm and observed it carefully.

"It is made of a variety of exotic metals, each of which seems to be more precious than mutton-fat jade iron." Qin Ming suddenly felt that his rare sword had dimmed.

There are various characters on the furnace body, some are engraved, some are embedded, and some special materials are not directly melted into the furnace wall.

Some characters are white and warm, but the luster is more restrained. Qin Ming feels that they are more extraordinary than mutton-fat jade iron.

There are also characters embedded in "strange gold", with natural textures and a hint of purple.

"I want to take it down and refine it into a handy weapon." Qin Ming was just thinking about it. This furnace was already a nearly immortal object. Who would be willing to recast other weapons?

He knew very well that weapons made of mutton-fat jade iron already had extraordinary properties, such as being able to kill invisible creatures. In addition, if it was damaged, it could still be restored by nourishing it with the light of heaven.

Qin Ming was certain that the material of this near-immortal object was even more amazing. Even though there were nine holes on the furnace, if it was carefully "nurtured" by someone from outside the world, it would probably be completely restored in the future.

But this magical object has been damaged too badly, and it was damaged by unimaginable force. It will probably take a long time to nurture it.

At the very least, thousands of years have passed, and it has not recovered on its own.

"I guess it is because of this that it fell into the hands of the core disciples." Qin Ming had heard Li Qingyue mention it.

Even if something close to immortality is damaged, it can still be of endless use to the disciples outside the secular world, because it can receive the "Heavenly Essence".

The masters in the secular world can truly enjoy the beauty of nature.

But their food is not the sunrise, but the rare spiritual substances in the top-grade fire springs. What they drink is not the water vapor and dew at night, but the mysterious "heavenly flower" deep in the night sky.

If you can drink "Tianhua" at the disciple stage, the benefits are naturally self-evident.

Therefore, all the disciples were jealous, and even the noble Cui Chonghe did not hesitate to violate the rules to enter.

Qin Ming held the furnace and looked at it carefully. It was not a regular round shape, but had eight sides, each with a clear Bagua symbol.

"This is... the Bagua furnace." He felt that just because it was cast in this shape, the furnace's origin must be extraordinary.

Qin Ming knocked on the furnace wall and listened carefully to its echo. It seemed as if some inexplicable Taoist rhyme was spreading, which made his mind clear.

"What a good thing! I wonder if it will also have a magical effect and be extremely powerful if used to hit someone."

If people from other places heard him say this, they would probably call him a reckless man.

Qin Ming put down the Bagua furnace and closed the broken lid on it.

Then, he set his eyes on another object, a "piece of paper" made of melted exotic metal, which made him even more excited.

He looked at the things that were close to immortality first because he had heard so many legends about them and everyone was talking about them, so he naturally wanted to try them out himself.

This page of paper had already been damaged for a long time, even more severely than the Bagua furnace. Only a corner was left, less than a quarter of the original size.

Qin Ming held it and looked at the detailed text and some pictures on it. He suddenly felt that it was heavy. It could be placed together with the Bagua Furnace. Its value was probably unimaginable.

There are twelve holes on this page of "paper" made of a mixture of various strange metals, so there is not much content to see on this page, which is only a corner. Either words are missing or pictures are missing.

For ordinary people, this incomplete sutra is of no use at all. If you dare to practice it, big problems will definitely arise.

Qin Ming put it down and kept rubbing his hands, hoping that his luck would be good enough to resonate with it.

"A thing close to immortality, give me some immortal luck!" Qin Ming picked up the Bagua furnace again.

He valued the incomplete page of the scripture more, and first tested it with the Bagua furnace.

Qin Ming concentrated his mind highly, ready to resonate with the near-immortal object to see if he could gain something here.

Then, his eyes became dull!
With a clang, he threw the Bagua furnace to the ground and took a deep breath. The mist transformed from the skylight burned his lungs so much that it hurt.

But this was nothing compared to the throbbing in his heart. This was the first time he encountered such a situation. He "read" the ancient artifacts and felt the emotional fluctuations left over from the past, and ended up in danger.

"How strong is that old guy?" Qin Ming was shocked. He felt the remnants of many emotions and chose the biggest one.

As a result, his consciousness was nearly destroyed by the resonance.

This was no longer pure emotion, but a kind of Tao rhyme. There was an inexplicable fluctuation, which, even if very slight, made him feel as if he was facing a vast and raging sea. A big wave could blow him away.

"Are all the old guys in the outside world so powerful?" Qin Ming was lost in thought.

Then, he thought of the old man who defeated the peerless overlord with a flip of his hand.

The old man he was facing was definitely not Li Qingxu's master, but he was also a big shot in the outside world. "I rely on my body mutation to move forward step by step. It seems that there is still a long way to go!"

It took Qin Ming a long time to recover.

This time he was quite cautious. After picking up the alchemy furnace, he concentrated his mind highly, picked out the weaker emotions, and avoided the old guy with the rhyme of Tao.

After a while, he put down the thing that was close to immortality, took a short rest, and then went on to "communicate".

In this way, Qin Ming resonated with the alchemy furnace again and again, tried repeatedly, and finally even provoked the extremely dangerous emotion again.

He was covered in sweat, and felt like his head was about to explode. His mind was on fire. This was much more tiring than fighting Jiang Congyun and Chen Shuhang.

But Qin Ming was very satisfied, with his eyes and eyebrows shining.

If someone were here, they would definitely think he was smiling foolishly and had no image.

Qin Ming gained a lot this time. He resonated with a mysterious mantra among the things close to immortality, which turned out to be about the Six Ding Divine Fire!

Only this fire can activate the Bagua furnace, which is used to refine medicine and weapons.

Qin Ming had naturally heard of the Liu Ding Divine Fire, because it was so high-end and was related to the near-immortal creatures and god-like creatures deep in the vast night fog world.

Only during the great pioneering period could one witness such terrifying flames.

Qin Ming was a little skeptical. The Eight Trigrams Furnace might not have been refined by someone from outside the world. It was very likely obtained from near-immortal creatures and near-god creatures during the great creation era.

The Lihuo Sutra he practiced was already considered a very precious and miraculous skill, but what he practiced was only Lihuo, which could not be compared with the Liuding Divine Fire at all.

Unless it is the "Nanming Lihuo" which is above Lihuo, it can also be regarded as a strange fire controlled by god-like creatures.

"As expected of a fairy object, you gave me such a big surprise!" Qin Ming exclaimed, patted the Bagua furnace, treated it as a musical instrument, and listened to its sound.

His mind wandered, and he muttered to himself, "The Night Fog World is boundless and seems to hide a lot of secrets. It is close to immortals and gods. Even if we develop a small corner of it, it will be of great value."

Soon, he came to his senses and realized that those were too far away from him.

Even the things in front of him made him feel helpless.

Because the level of the Six Ding Divine Fire is too high, even if he has the mantra, he cannot practice it now.

Even with the miraculous skill of the Fire Seal Sutra, he had only reached the second realm. This was after he had improved his foundation in the Mountain and River Spirit Nest, and only then did he practice part of the Outer Saint Realm here.

"I'm just guarding a treasure mountain in vain." Qin Ming whispered.

Then, he shook his head and smiled, saying, "Not really, I'll leave it for the future and slowly dig it up."

There is no doubt that the Liu Ding Divine Fire is too high-end, and it is enough to hold up the show no matter where it is placed.

"I don't know if this formula still exists in the outside world. Maybe I can bring it back to the world this time."

Qin Ming touched the object that was close to immortality, put it aside, and held the broken scripture in his hand again. After calming down, he began to resonate.

Sure enough, there were also the emotions of that terrifying old man, wrapped in the rhyme of Tao. Qin Ming avoided it and resonated with the other remaining emotions.

Once, twice... He repeatedly touched and sensed it, and in the final stage he even "offended" the old man to make sure that the scriptures he obtained were correct.

He dropped the torn pages, fell to the ground with his back facing the sky, and took a deep breath, letting the horrible light and mist burn his mouth and nose. It took him a long time to recover.

"Qingyue is very lucky. This is definitely something written on a piece of paper!" Qin Ming said to himself.

In fact, this is indeed the case. There is only one piece of "paper" on the scene, coexisting with the Bagua furnace, carrying amazing secrets.

"It has a great origin!" Qin Ming looked at the paper. It was made of a similar material to the Bagua furnace.

"I don't know if I will be able to practice this technique when I reach a certain level in the future." He touched the remnant of paper.

On this metal paper, he saw the old man warning his last disciple not to even think about it until he reached the third realm, and not to even touch the paper, otherwise there would be big problems and he would kill himself.

"No need to think so much for now!" Qin Ming stood up. The road is still long and the future is still far. He needs to move forward down to earth.

He searched here to see if there were any other items.

"Huh?!" Qin Ming was surprised. With an attitude of giving it a try, he dug three feet into the ground and actually found something: a small amount of metal lumps embedded in the ground under the crystal.

He stared at it carefully, his heart unable to calm down, because the material was too special, some looked like purple gold, but there was an obvious difference, it contained densely packed magical patterns.

Some are as white as jade, but more restrained than mutton-fat jade and iron, with some inexplicable charm hidden in them.

Qin Ming searched and dug patiently in this area, and finally found a handful of metal fragments, but all of them were less than the size of a fist.

He had already seen that these mysterious materials had been incorporated into some important weapons, such as the piece of purple gold, which still retained a little bit of the sword edge.

That piece of "red copper" was supposed to be the tip of the gun!

From this perspective, many extraordinary artifacts were completely destroyed, and only the essence mixed in them - the exotic metals - were preserved.

Qin Ming's eyes changed. The thing in his hand might be priceless!
Luofu Fairy Mountain was once the most supreme blessed land and a major foundation for people outside the world. Otherwise, they would not have thought of pushing it to transform into a cave paradise.

The remnants here are truly amazing.

Qin Ming put all the strange metal lumps into his arms and searched the area several times, but he really couldn't find anything.

He was ready to leave and face the challenges outside.

He also put the broken stove cover and the torn paper into his arms to avoid losing them in the battle.

Then, Qin Ming carried a furnace leg, a near-immortal object, and walked out through the thick skylight.

Earlier today, I strongly recommended the animation "The Immortal Realm" broadcast on Tencent Video. The adaptation is very good, and the key is that book fans unanimously approved it after watching it. I won't say more. Book fans who have watched it, please comment here.
