Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 336 - 280: The Third Stage Refining Furnace Tripod and the Maze

Chapter 336: Chapter 280: The Third Stage Refining Furnace Tripod and the Maze

“Refining Qi into God. Consuming” reached Perfection, signifying that the Great Medicine had been thoroughly stabilized and there was no longer the risk of it fleeing. At the same time, the enhancement brought about by the Great Medicine Spiritual Light for Wang Sheng was essentially complete.

The quality of his physical fitness, his Blood Qi, and his Divine Thought had all been greatly improved.

The comprehensive enhancement resulted in an increase in lifespan.

“1500 years?”

Refining Qi into God. Consuming, the realm alone had brought him an increase of nearly three hundred years in lifespan. Overall, it was still less compared to the Refining stage of Refining Essence to Qi, but this was just the initial realm of Refining Qi into God.

Having an increase of three hundred years, Wang Sheng was already satisfied.

...

Three hundred years, theoretically the lifespan of a Great Grandmaster, he had achieved with just the improvement of one realm.

“The next realm is up next!”

Now that Consuming had reached Perfection and the Great Medicine was stable, without the worry of the Great Medicine escaping, he could comfortably enter the next realm, the Refining Furnace Tripod.

In the initial stages of Refining Qi into God, the core lies in the word “refine”.

After stabilizing the Great Medicine, it was time to transform the Dantian into a furnace tripod.

The middle Dantian, the red palace, would transform into the tripod, and the lower Dantian, the yellow court, would serve as the furnace to Refine Great Medicine.

The so-called Refining Furnace Tripod does not truly mean that both Dantians need to change shape into a furnace tripod—doing so would only lead to the collapse of one’s body, turning everything into Cloud Smoke.

Rather, it means to endow both Dantians with respective functions, to bring them into play.

The lower Dantian is the foundation of life, the wellspring of power. If it were really transformed into a furnace, it would destroy everything.

Because what’s known as the Refining Furnace Tripod is more about the notion of transformation, and one needs to really do it. The term “transformation” here means to “consider as.”

Moreover, the lower Dantian itself is already nicknamed the “Creation Furnace,” the origin of life, the body’s Melting Furnace.

Therefore, transforming into a furnace is by no means an impossible task.

Of course, even if it’s doable, to truly transform into a Furnace Tripod and to Refine Great Medicine definitely can’t be accomplished overnight.

After all, even though it is an illusion, it also takes time.

“The Furnace Tripod should be brought forth together, or maybe the furnace comes first and then the tripod, it’s all the same. It’s just a matter of difficulty and time, and naturally, I choose to bring forth the Furnace Tripod simultaneously…”

To transform into a Refining Furnace Tripod requires time and energy, and doing both simultaneously naturally consumes more and brings greater difficulty. A minor misstep could mean starting all over again, but if it could succeed in one go, it would save a considerable amount of time.

To do the furnace first and then the tripod or the tripod first and subsequently the furnace, to transform one at a time, is not as complicated, thus the difficulty is lower, but it requires slightly more time.

However, in the stage of Refining Qi into God, a “little more time” usually means a dozen years or even several decades.

Of course, under normal circumstances, one would need to construct each separately because building them together is highly prone to failure, which could end up taking even more time, or worse, injuring oneself if the attempt fails.

But for Wang Sheng, with the existence of progress bars and the law of harvest to enhance his Divine Thought, undergoing both processes at the same time is indeed the best choice for him.

He wouldn’t fail, and it would save time.

Having made his decision, Wang Sheng did not leave his closed-door training but continued to cultivate.

He needed to initiate and stabilize “Refining Furnace Tripod.”

“The furnace is the repository of fire, and the mastery of the fire is crucial to the outcome of Refining Great Medicine. The tripod is the place of Refining. One must not allow the tripod to tilt and the medicine to fly away; it needs to be stable…”

Taking the red palace and yellow court as the foundation, Wang Sheng began to illusorily construct his own furnace tripod.

The furnace tripod had to meet the requirements for Refining Great Medicine, so it was essential to select the most suitable furnace tripod.

“The tripod shall be round, and the furnace, a Round Furnace…”

Wang Sheng quickly decided on the shape of the furnace tripod. The rounded tripod would better stabilize the Great Medicine and prevent the loss of “medicinal effects.” A tripod with three legs would ensure its stability, preventing any risk of it tilting.

A round furnace would allow for a more evenly distributed mastery of fire and better control of the flames.

Combining the two would be the real Furnace Tripod for Refining Great Medicine.

Once he had made his decision, Wang Sheng slowly began the construction of the illusion.

The construction of the two components could not be made from nothing.

The red palace for the tripod, and the yellow court for the furnace, meant that the furnace tripod was inseparable from the Dantians.

Divine Thought invoked Qi-Blood, merging them within the two Dantians.

The power of the spirit was the main force of this transformation, and under the influence of Wang Sheng’s spiritual will, Divine Thought and Qi Blood Power started to outline the shape of the furnace tripod.

At the same time, both Dantians were also activated, beginning to accept and connect to the illusory constructed furnace tripod.

Especially the lower Dantian, the yellow court, seemed to merge with the illusory “furnace.”

The frame of the furnace tripod gradually took shape within it.

And just then, another force within Wang Sheng’s body began to act.

The power of his Blood Qi!

During the “Refining Qi into God. Rushing through the barrier” realm, the power of Blood Qi had helped to stabilize his Divine Thought, allowing him to successfully complete the challenge. This time, the power of Blood Qi reemerged, participating in the illusory construction of the furnace tripod.

The construction process became even more stable and smooth.

This was something Wang Sheng had not expected.

Not just the power of Blood Qi, he faintly felt the presence of the “True Body,” which also subtly influenced the construction of the furnace tripod.

Of course, all these influences were positive.

“Is there a deviation happening?”

After pondering for a while, Wang Sheng ultimately let it be.

As long as it was beneficial, it wasn’t much of a problem.

He continued to construct the furnace tripod.

It didn’t take long to complete the framework.

“Refining Qi into God. Transforming the Furnace Tripod: 1%”

The third stage of Refining Qi into God had officially begun!

This stage would take some time, but his actual combat strength and lifespan wouldn’t see any major increases. This stage’s primary purpose was to “expend.”
