Chapter 494 - 240: Nine Yang Seven Orifice Sacrificial Refining Array, Terrifying Celestial Phenomenon, Hearts Stirring
After the two sat down.
Fu Changsheng waved his sleeve, and a jade scroll floated over to Yu Qingru:
"Qingru, this is the ’Nine Yang Seven Orifice Sacrificial Refining Array’. I’ve already prepared the spiritual materials needed for the array setup. Please help me set it up in the secret chamber."
So it was about setting up an array.
The glimmer of hope that had risen in Yu Qingru’s heart dissipated.
With the jade scroll against her forehead, after browsing the information on it, she softly exclaimed in her heart, this Sacrificial Refining Array appeared to be arranged using ancient array techniques.
She studied it for a while.
This ’Nine Yang Seven Orifice Sacrificial Refining Array’ was at least equivalent to a Tier Two Top-Grade Array, and its purpose was merely a recognition ceremony, indicating that the artifact to be refined was at least Tier Three.
Yu Qingru didn’t ask much.
She accepted the spiritual materials Fu Changsheng handed over.
Initially, she practiced a bit, and being proficient in the Path of Array, she quickly sorted everything out.
With both hands forming a technique, nine high-quality Yang Flame Stones flew up, landing in the nine profound positions of Qianyang, Kunyin, Zhenlei, Xunfeng, Kanshui, Lihuo, Genshan, Duize, etc., deep beneath the chamber floor:
"Changsheng, you need to engrave corresponding Nine Palace Runes above the places where the Yang Flame Stones are buried. The Rune Ink needs to be drawn with your blood, mixed with the essence extracted from the burning of Yang Flame Wood."
"Understood."
Fu Changsheng, being an experienced Talisman Maker, found drawing Nine Palace Runes not difficult. He had practiced many times and completed it almost in one go after holding the pen.
Yu Qingru’s technique changed once more.
Accompanied by rumbling sounds.
One by one, Nine Yang Pillars whistled out and stood at each intersection of the Nine Palaces.
These Nine Yang Pillars had to be forged from Nine Yang Refined Iron, each pillar standing nine feet nine inches tall.
Yu Qingru flicked her fingers, and spirit ropes shot out, wrapping around the Nine Yang Pillars in nine loops. These ropes were woven from Pure Yang Silk Threads, each rope having a small Yang Flame Jade Pendant every three inches, with each pendant inscribed with the Nine Yang Seal.
The array hub was located right in the center of the Nine Palaces.
Rumble!
With Yu Qingru tapping her storage bag, a massive Nine Yang Furnace fell into place, forged from Nine Yang Essence Rock nurtured by Nine Yang Earth Core Fire.
After retracting her technique.
Yu Qingru’s face turned slightly pale:
"Changsheng, next, you just need to carve eighty-one small Nine Yang Runes on each Nine Yang Pillar, and these runes should resonate with the underground Nine Palace Runes."
"Additionally,"
"The Spiritual Power guiding patterns inside the Nine Yang Furnace also require your talisman blood to draw. Once these patterns are activated, they can concentrate and guide the accumulated Nine Yang power of the array onto the artifact to be refined placed within."
This meant.
From here on, it was up to Fu Changsheng.
Looking at the runes of the ’Nine Yang Seven Orifice Sacrificial Refining Array’, Fu Changsheng was grateful that Meizhen and the others had just finished making a batch of Blood Recovery Pills, otherwise, his blood would have been drained dry after engraving these runes:
"Thank you, Qingru."
Yu Qingru shook her head.
Knowing he was busy with serious matters, she discreetly left, but the words weighing on her heart never found an opportunity to be spoken.
The two children were growing older.
This was a time when they needed their father’s presence, not something that could be simply glossed over as it was in their childhood.
Many times she wanted to discuss this with Fu Changsheng, but never found the right moment.
After Yu Qingru left.
Fu Changsheng ingested a Blood Recovery Pill, then began to draw the runes.
After toiling for over a month.
He finally completed engraving all the runes on the Nine Yang Pillars and the Nine Yang Furnace:
"Phew"
Now it was time to test his hypothesis.
Adjusting himself to his optimal condition.
With a tap on his storage bag, a flash of Dawn Light, and the scrap iron lying in a white-bottomed black-patterned box floated up, precisely landing at the center of Nine Yang Refinement.
He took a deep breath.
With a calm and steady gaze, Fu Changsheng closed and opened his eyes.
He formed the Nine Yang Seal with his hands, his fingers interlaced, thumbs hooked, other fingers straight, palms facing outward, and chanted ancient, obscure spells:
"Nine Yang shines upon the world, Spiritual Fire burns the void. Heaven and Earth Yang Essence, converge into my array. The artifact enters the furnace, impurities all removed. Strength of Nine Yang, refine my artifact. Runes as a guide, Spiritual Power infused. Yang Flame blazing, the artifact’s glory bursts forth. Today, refining, artifact, communicate with the spirit."
At the same time.
Mana continuously flowed from within into the Nine Yang Seven Orifice Sacrificial Refining Array.
Buzz!
Runes on the Nine Yang Pillars instantly lit up.
The Nine Yang power flowed into the furnace’s runes through the talisman array, and with a boom, a blaze of the most ferocious Supreme Yang flame emerged.
Sizzle!
The Nine Yang Flame engulfed the scrap iron.
The surface of the scrap iron began to glow with a faint blood-colored light.
This light wasn’t bright, but possessed an ancient and mysterious aura, as if awakening a power slumbering for millennia, the scrap iron began to tremble slightly, emitting a low humming sound like it was responding to Fu Changsheng’s call.
"Just a bit more!"
Fu Changsheng struck his chest with a palm.
Then a mouthful of Essence Blood spurted out, landing on the scrap iron.
The trembling of the scrap iron intensified, and the blood-colored glow grew stronger. Suddenly, a crisp metallic snapping sound echoed, and the scrap iron split apart:
"This is....."
Could the firepower have been too intense!
Fu Changsheng’s heart tensed.
If that were the case.
It would be like drawing water with a wicker basket, all for nothing.
Just when he thought the sacrificial refinement had failed.
A sudden change occurred.
The fire attribute spiritual energy in the secret chamber gave a gentle tremble with a hum. Then, with a roaring sound, as if summoned by an invisible force, it madly surged towards the Nine Yang Refinement.
