Chapter 184: Chapter 117 Close to Immortal Item

In the central area of the massive pit, crystallization was even more severe. The ground was barren and pocked with holes, and it was hard to imagine celestial herbs taking root here.

The contents of this place were completely visible at a glance. Qin Ming’s eyes were fervent, already standing close by and gazing at the Close to Immortal Item just inches away.

It was a heavily damaged furnace body, with some gaping holes on it. Even in such a dilapidated state, it was still steaming with Immortal Light, entwined with auspicious glow, and the mouth of the furnace was shrouded in white fog.

Moreover, it also came with celestial phenomena, occasionally revealing scenes of Dan Formation within the luminous fog, with dragons and tigers assisting each other and Dan Qi soaring to the sky, as if the furnace was about to release some Miracle Medicine.

This was why Chen Shuhang and Jiang Congyun suddenly turned against Qin Ming. Seeing the expanding Dan Qi and lively dragons and tigers, they both got confused and thought there were remnants of Immortal Elixir.

From these visions alone, it was clear that the Pill Furnace was truly extraordinary. Despite the passage of thousands of years, it could still display such spectacular phenomena, far beyond imagination.

The furnace was small in size, merely as tall as a palm, engraved with numerous Runes. The furnace lid was half-destroyed, lying next to it.

"No wonder those old geezers didn’t take it away and left it for later generations; this thing is ’leaky’ and too badly damaged."

Qin Ming counted and found nine holes on this palm-sized furnace body, not to mention some cracks, and the lid was even missing a piece.

"Such a petite furnace, can it still be used to forge Weapons?" He was puzzled because, among the radiant light it emitted, there were vague scenes of weapon forging.

Qin Ming showed a look of surprise; this Close Immortal Item probably had other marvelous uses.

The furnace body itself looked exceedingly ancient, but it was still wrapped in auspicious glow.

Qin Ming dared not touch it with his hands, so he drew the Mutton Fat Jade Iron Blade to test it and found it had no reaction. Only then did he gingerly knock on it with the tip of his finger.

The furnace produced a crisp metallic resonance, as if a bell had been struck.

After confirming there were no problems, Qin Ming finally picked it up from the ground, holding it carefully in his palm to observe.

"It’s cast from a variety of Exotic Golds, each seemingly more precious than Mutton Fat Jade Iron." Suddenly, Qin Ming felt that his own treasure sword had dulled.

The furnace body was inscribed with various characters, some were engraved, some were inlaid, and some special materials were not directly melted into the furnace wall.

Some characters were white and smooth with a rather restrained luster, and Qin Ming had a feeling that they were more extraordinary than Mutton Fat Jade Iron.

There were also characters inlaid with "Exotic Gold," with natural patterns and emitting strands of Purple Energy.

"I wish I could knock them off and forge them into a handy Weapon." Qin Ming only thought about it—the furnace was already a Close Immortal Item, who would be willing to recast other weapons?

He was very aware that Weapons cast from Mutton Fat Jade Iron already possessed extraordinary properties, such as being able to slay unseen mysterious creatures. Moreover, if it was damaged, nurtured by Heavenly Light, it could still be restored.

Qin Ming was certain that the material of this Close Immortal Item was more astonishing. Despite the nine holes on the furnace body, if Cultivated with care by outsiders, it could probably be fully restored in the future.

However, such an Immortal Artifact had been damaged too terribly and by unimaginable forces, so it would presumably require a long time to be nurtured back to health.

At the very least, thousands of years had passed, and it had not restored itself.

"It’s probably for this reason that it ended up in the hands of Core Disciples," Qin Ming had once heard Li Qingyue mention.

Even if the Close Immortal Item was damaged, it still held endless marvels for the Outer Disciples, as it could accommodate "Heavenly Light."

The masters from the Outer World could truly achieve the feat of Dining with the Sunset.

But what they dined on wasn’t the evening glow but the rare Spiritual Material from the top-tier Fire Spring, and what they drank wasn’t the night’s water vapor and dew but the mysterious "Heavenly Light" from the depths of the night sky.

If Disciples could partake of "Heavenly Light" at their stage, its benefits would naturally be self-explanatory.

Thus, all Disciples were envious, even the aloof Cui Chonghe did not hesitate to break the rules and enter the fray.

Qin Ming held the furnace and observed it closely; it was not a regular round shape, but rather had eight sides, each with clear eight-trigram symbols.

"This is... the Furnace of Eight Trigrams." He felt that just based on its shape alone, the origin of the furnace was extraordinary.

Qin Ming tapped the furnace wall and listened carefully to its echo, as if some inexplicable Immortal Charm was spreading, making his spirit clear and bright.

"What a great item, I wonder if using it to hit someone would also carry that Immortal Charm, the power would be incredibly mighty."

If people from the Outer World heard such talk, they would probably scold him as a brute.

Qin Ming set down the Furnace of Eight Trigrams and put the damaged lid back on it.

Then, his gaze shifted to another Artifact, "a piece of paper" that was forged from Exotic Gold, drawing even more of his interest.

He had first looked at the Close Immortal Item because he had heard too many legends, and everyone was talking about it; naturally, he wanted to handle it himself.

This piece of paper was also long since fragmented, even more so than the Furnace of Eight Trigrams, with only a corner left, not even a quarter of its original size remaining.

Qin Ming held it, looking at the dense text on it, the various figures, and immediately felt its weight; to be kept alongside the Furnace of Eight Trigrams, its value was probably unimaginable.

This "page" made of various Exotic Golds had a total of twelve holes, leaving very little content visible on what was already just a corner, either missing words or partial figures.

For ordinary people, this corner of the fragmented Scripture would be of no use and daring to practice following it would certainly lead to major issues.

Qin Ming set it down, rubbing his hands together in the hope of a stroke of extreme luck, to resonate with it.

"Close Immortal Item, bestow me with some Immortal fortune!" Qin Ming lifted the Furnace of Eight Trigrams again.
