Chapter 102: Furnace Alchemy Art
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
The mories faded and the illusory scene gradually vanished.
Feng Lin stood at his original location, stunned beyond words. A brand new mory appeared in his mind, the Furnace Alchemy Art.
However, he didn’t care about this now. He could still see the mysterious smile of that old man and his words which caused Feng Lin’s heart to tremble.
Was that a coincidence?
Feng Lin shook his head.
Although their gazes matched for just an instant, he was sure that he didn’t see it wrongly.
That old man exuding an air of immortality intentionally ignored the puzzlent of his students and explained the common knowledge of their sect to him.
After speaking, maybe the old man had already achieved his objectives. He changed the topic and started to speak about the most famous pill concoction technique in the Furnace Immortal Sect, the Furnace Alchemy Art.
This was a pill concoction thod that could control the energy of heaven and earth, using Yin and Yang as fire, refining the multitude of living things in the world. It had incredibly wondrous effects and was the foundation of all of the Furnace Immortal Sect’s alchemy thods.
No matter which alchemy thods of the sect, regardless of their grade, they were all evolved from this foundation art. This was how the multitude of dao scriptures were evolved from the sacred text of Daoism from Lao-Tze.
Feng Lin imrsed himself, sighing with admiration as he concentrated. When he finally managed to engrave this technique in his mind, all the images from the mories had already completely faded.
He recalled the strange actions and the gaze of that old man earlier as a look of bewildernt appeared on his face.
Earlier in that mory, all the words and actions of that old man were done and spoken for the sake of a single person...
And that person was none other than Feng Lin!
This thinking was extrely crazy and audacious. Even after Feng Lin concluded that it was true, he was still extrely frightened, yet he completely believed his conclusion.
This was especially true at the very end before the illusory scenes completely vanished. This old man had whispered into his mind. “Man from the future, the Great Calamity of the Annihilation of Laws will soon descend upon the world. I’ll hand over the inheritance of my Furnace Immortal Sect to you, and you will be the one responsible for spreading it now.”
In the myths and legends of ancient china, those powerful cultivators were able to cultivate to a state where they beca existences equal to gods and devils. At that ti, they would be able to peer through ti and gain an inkling of what the future would hold, allowing them to see through heavenly fate. Could that old man be an existence like that?
However, being able to predict a calamity that is millions of years later, didn’t that sound like too much of an exaggeration?! If that’s true, it ans that the strength of the old man wouldn’t be considered weak even among gods and devils!
But what does the words ‘Great Calamity of the Annihilation of Laws’ an?
...
Feng Lin felt an unbearable itch in his heart. He felt that he had faintly co in contact with the truth of ancient myths and legends. However, many things were still obscure to him, and he still couldn’t be sure of anything yet.
Many speculations arose in his mind, but he had no way to accurately deduce anything.
All of a sudden, he seed to have sensed sothing. His expression tightened as he sent out all his ntal energy, forming them into needles that ruthlessly pierced into the crystal lifeforms.
Those crystal lifeforms let out cries of despair but very soon, their life aura faded away completely.
Cold sweat dripped from Feng Lin’s forehead. He was forcibly using his ntal energy to destroy the consciousness of these crystal lifeforms, killing them all.
Earlier, because of carelessness, Feng Lin revealed his shock too openly.
For those who had strengthened their ntal Genes to a certain extent, they would be able to use their tal perception to probe the secret of this ancient divine dicine. He had no way to hide this, but it was impossible for Feng Lin to allow people like Frank and Aike from the white race to obtain this inheritance.
Since they weren’t from his own race, their intention would surely be different.
For the inheritance left behind by that old ancestor, as a junior, he naturally had to protect it well. He wasn’t going to allow people with malicious intentions to obtain it.
As to what he should say in explanation later, Feng Lin already had a strategy.
After obtaining the inheritance of the Furnace Alchemy Art, Feng Lin wasn’t in a hurry to leave. He imdiately started his research.
He cald himself down and continued to act like how he had done earlier, taking down notes periodically. However, he was silently musing in his heart at what he had obtained through this fortuitous encounter.
So it turned out that the paste-like substance wasn’t an ancient divine dicine. It was just a unique magic pill from the Furnace Immortal Sect known as the Grandmist Fate Pill.
According to the cultivation theory of the Furnace Immortal Sect, the human body was made up of 60 trillion grandmist worms.
This Grandmist Fate Pill could allow the dicinal potency to seep into each and every grandmist worm, allowing humans to transcend themselves, reforging them anew. The great potential in their bodies would be stimulated as their vitality stats would instantly reach a much greater height than before.
60 trillion grandmist worms?
Isn’t that the sa number as the cells in the human body?
Could it be that grandmist worms were referring to the cells in human bodies?
...
Feng Lin silently speculated, feeling that this was highly possible.
The civilization of myths and legends didn’t belong to the sa system as the civilization of science. Although their research of the human body had reached an extrely high level, the sa object might not be called using the sa term. For example, cells were known as ‘grandmist worms’ in the civilization of myths and legends. And earlier, that old man in the mory referred to ‘bio-magnetic fields’ as ‘destiny’...
Feng Lin didn’t make a big fuss about all these and worry himself over the small details. Wild joy painted his countenance instead. From the pill concoction technique, he had already discovered that magic pills might contain an overwhelming amout of dicinal strength, but there was a way for ordinary humans to consu it.
There was a total of two reasons.
Firstly, the shape of the pill was a perfect sphere-shape. This was an extrely logical structure. It was able to lock the full dicinal potency within, and the mont the pill entered the stomach, all the dicinal potency wouldn’t flood out in an instant. The pill would release the dicinal potency bit by bit, allowing it to seep through the entire body slowly. The human body wouldn’t have to bear too great of a burden then.
Secondly, alchemy was considered a thod of seizing fate. Each and every magic pill concocted was a little life, and they were able to emit their own bio-magnetic fields, capable of adapting to different human bodies. This was sowhat similar to hypnotism.
Through these discoveries, Feng Lin realized that the Giant Pharmaceutical Company was completely on the wrong path.
Because genetic potion theory of the current era belonged to a system that was entirely different from alchemy theory. There were only relatively few common points.
For genetic potion theory, its origins were from western mythologies of Ancient Earth Era. The theory had been ford from developnt of interstellar science and technology, paying attention to the analysis of dical effects, further modulating the efficacy of the dicine step by step.
As for alchemy (pill concoction), its core theory was life creation. It was seen as a simulation of cosmic creation where miniature lifeforms could be created, able to beco a part of nature.
Alchemy and genetic potions were two completely different theoretical systems. By just purely imitating the ancient divine dicine’s effect, it was impossible to obtain the true divine charm of alchemy.
Upon seeing the research records kept by the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, Feng Lin could set his heart at ease.
For his next actions, he knew what he had to do. He knew how he should display his discoveries while not fully revealing the secrets of this ancient divine dicine.
From the start until now, there were simply too many suspicious points about the Giant Pharmaceutical Company. Feng Lin held a strong wariness to them in his heart, and he had to guard against them.
After that, he started to experint again, pretending to prepare potions, wanting to grasp the process of the pill concoction technique.
“Quickly look! He is preparing a potion. Can it be that he truly discovered sothing?”
“I’m not sure, but we will know if we continue watching.”
...
Frank and Aike exchanged a mutual glance. They started to pay even closer attention to every move of Feng Lin.
Feng Lin started to prepare potions, but his way of doing so was different from the past. He no longer blindly modulated the dicinal components, but he directly used flas to refine them instead.
Using genetic potion theory and science as support, Feng Lin could control the composition precisely and modulate the different effects of the dicinal components. In order to cultivate alchemy, he first had to train up his ntal perception. Naturally, back in the Ancient Era, ntal perception was known as divine sense.
Only divine sense that was ethereal and formless could truly sense all the miraculous transformations during alchemy, and proceed with micro-manipulation to set things on the correct path, achieving the effect of transforming sothing rotten into sothing wondrous.
Feng Lin didn’t have a furnace. Also, his current cultivation base was still too low; thus, it was impossible for him to create magic pills that had a life.
But this didn’t an that he wasn’t able to use a little of the alchemy techniques he had learned when creating genetic potions!
Magic pills had a unique internal structure that could lock in the dicinal potency. This was one of the main reasons why magic pills were able to be consud by ordinary humans. If he applied this knowledge on genetic potions, would he be able to achieve a similar result?
Feng Lin silently speculated but he wasn’t confident in it. Even so, it was worth a try.
Feng Lin extended his ntal energy, closely monitoring the reactions of the dicinal components. He then pressed his will upon them, urging them to transform into the crystalline internal structure of magic pills, making the vast majority of these dical substances link together, forming a spherical shape that could securely lock the dicinal potency within.
After that, he used so techniques of alchemy. But of course, what he used was only the tip of the iceberg of his knowledge. Even so, it was already sufficient, Feng Lin discovered that this genetic potion was being crystallized due to his ntal control, and its internal structure beca a wonderful and magnificent geotric structure.
In this way, he could show off his new discovery and gain recognition from the Giant Pharmaceutical Group, thereby obtaining more core secrets. He wouldn’t expose too much of his secrets as well.
Feng Lin was using a completely new thod, and this unusual scene instantly drew Frank and Aike’s attention.
“Strange, did you see it? Feng Lin kept using fire to boil the potion, what is he doing?” Frank asked in a low voice.
“I’m not sure either. Usually, we only use flas to increase the temperature to strengthen the dicinal potency. If he continued boiling it, wouldn’t all the potion evaporate?” Aike spoke in a puzzled tone.
“Evaporation?” Frank started and then asked another question, “Do you feel that this is how the paste-like substance of the ancient divine dicine was created?”
“Impossible!” Aike shook his head with certainty. But after a mont of contemplation, he wasn’t so sure as he spoke, “There might be a connection with it, but it shouldn’t be so simple. The dicinal potency of genetic potions are incredibly strong, and this is why we create them in liquid form, for the purpose of dilution, allowing the human body to be able to endure it. If not, even interstellar cultivators will not be able to endure the dicinal potency. If the genetic potions took on solid form, the dicinal potency in them would surely be extrely strong. Once it was swallowed by a human body, the dicinal potency would erupt outward, causing the consur to explode.
Yet, Frank didn’t really agree with Aike’s deduction. “If that’s the case, why would this ancient divine dicine be in solid form?”
Aike had nothing to say, but he persisted in his views. “Although the ancient divine dicine is in solid form, there must definitely be a secret within this. It’s not so simple as just evaporating the genetic potions with fire!”
Frank nodded, he didn’t rebut anything. He calmly continued, “It’s useless to comnt more about it. Let’s head into the laboratory and watch it personally for ourselves.”
After speaking, he took the lead and walked toward the sealed laboratory.
Aike gritted his teeth and followed closely behind.
The mont they entered the laboratory, Feng Lin instantly sensed it but he pretended not to notice and continued to refine the potion.
Finally, the powdered form of crystals appeared in his hands. They were translucent and sparkling, extrely dazzling.
“Feng Lin, what are these?” Frank asked.
Feng Lin revealed an expression of amazent that was just right, not overdone. It was like he just discovered their arrival. He smiled. “This is a genetic dicinal substance I created by copying the ancient divine dicine.”
“Oh?” Frank’s expression changed. “Could it be that you really discovered sothing?”
His gaze focused on Feng Lin as though wanting to see through his secrets.
Feng Lin didn’t hesitate. He directly nodded his head like there was no wariness in his heart at all. He acted like he concealed nothing as he continued, “I discovered that the concentration of spirit particles in the ancient divine dicine is extrely rich and it will interfere with the probes from machinery; hence, I tried another thod instead. I used ntal energy to probe the ancient divine dicine and obtained a great discovery. Inside of it, its molecular structures are actually ford from crystal-like objects linking together. Hence, I wanted to see if I can replicate this.
“Probing by ntal energy, a crystal structure!” Frank started, he couldn’t help but ask, “Feng Lin, can it be that you’ve awakened the ntal Gene?”
“Yes!” Since he had already revealed a flaw earlier accidentally, he might as well directly admit it. “I have so talent in terms of my psyche and managed to awaken the ntal Gene, gaining the powers of ntal perception!”
Frank and Aike exchanged glances and had heavy expressions on their faces.
They knew that the ntal Gene was an extrely rare high-grade basic gene. It wasn’t sothing that could be awakened just because you wanted to awaken it.
Although Feng Lin spoke of it casually, there was clearly a deeper layer of aning behind his words.
Also, as for using ntal energy to probe the ancient divine dicine, soone in the Giant Pharmaceutical Company had also done so before, but why didn’t they discover anything?
In any case, Feng Lin didn’t seem to be lying. There was only a conclusion then!
Feng Lin’s ntal Gene must have already been strengthened to a point where ordinary humans would find it tough to strengthen it to. This caused his ntal energy to be extrely strong, yet also could be as precise as he wanted it to be. Only then would he be able to discover this amazing discovery.
“You feel like the crystal-like structure is the key why ordinary humans can use the ancient divine dicine?” Frank asked.
“That’s right!” Feng Lin nodded, “The ancient divine dicine is ford from many crystals linking together. Maybe, it’s precisely because of this strange structure that the dicinal potency was able to be locked inside. After ordinary humans use it, the crystal mbrane would act as a filter, allowing the dicinal potency to slowly seep out, allowing their bodies to absorb it...”
He mixed in lies with truth as he gave his conjecture. He used so of the simplest theory of alchemy to co up with this, but these few words already caused both Frank and Aike to be stunned.
Feng Lin wasn’t afraid that the Giant Pharmaceutical Company would discover the truth, because earlier, he had already acted in advance, killing the crystal lifeforms with his ntal energy. Even if there were people in the company who had awakened the ntal Gene and strengthened it to a very high level, it was no longer possible for them to discover the secret of the alchemy arts.
Feng Lin didn’t stop. He lit up another fire in their hearts.
“Because of this new discovery, I feel that if we can truly replicate the crystal structure inside the ancient divine dicine, it’s very possible for us to imitate its godly effects. Hence, I nad this new technique as ...” As he spoke, he stopped to let the mont sink in as he contemplated a little before he continued, creating a new na.
“Crystallized dicine Creation Technique!”
