Divine Wilderness Dragon Emperor

"So what if you’re the Furnace Spirit?" Ling Fei smiled. "If I want to control this Pill Furnace, how can I possibly succeed without taking you down first?"

He had no intention of being polite with Tianyuanzi.

After all, when Ling Fei had just entered this Furnace Inner Space, Tianyuanzi had immediately launched a sneak attack.

Seeing Tianyuanzi’s arrogant demeanor, Ling Fei knew this fellow wouldn’t give in.

’In that case, I’ll just have to crush it with overwhelming force!’

Ling Fei had no desire to humbly beg this pompous fellow.

ROAR!

As his voice fell, the figure manifested by Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit opened its mouth again. A dragon’s roar rang out, transforming into a terrifying sonic wave that swept forward.

This dragon’s roar was a sonic attack that specifically targeted souls, making it perfectly suited for dealing with the Furnace Spirit born from the Celestial Essence Divine Furnace.

"Kid, how dare you!" Seeing Ling Fei attack again, the Furnace Spirit’s face filled with terror. It hurriedly tried to draw upon the power within the furnace to resist him.

Instantly, ripples spread through the surroundings as an invisible force manifested, attempting to bind Ling Fei’s Power.

But Ling Fei’s Power was too great. His dragon roar was already nearly comparable to an attack from a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator.

And this was only because he was using his Heart Spirit to manifest his Divine Techniques.

If his true Divine Soul had attacked, the might would have been even more formidable.

BANG! BANG!

The dragon’s roar swept forward like countless True Dragons on a rampage, carrying Ling Fei’s powerful will within it.

Under the force of this power, the screen of fiery patterns manifested by the spirit of the Celestial Essence Divine Furnace was instantly shattered by Ling Fei.

The next moment, the terrifying wave swept over and shattered the Furnace Spirit.

BANG!

The Furnace Spirit shattered, scattering into specks of firelight in all directions.

A moment later, it re-formed into a human figure.

"You’re making me furious! No one has ever dared to target me like this! It’s infuriating! As long as I’m here, you can forget about controlling this Celestial Essence Divine Furnace!" Tianyuanzi roared. It glared at Ling Fei, wishing it could swallow him whole. However, although it was a Furnace Spirit, it had not been a spirit for very long.

It only possessed some of the power from the origin Fire Flames.

Furthermore, it could barely control some of the furnace’s power, so its combat strength was only comparable to the Nascent Soul Realm.

But against Ling Fei’s draconic sonic wave, it lost some of its advantage.

The sonic vibrations contained a Supreme Dragon’s Might that shook one to the core. An attack like this was far more terrifying than those from ordinary Nascent Soul Realm Powerhouses.

It glared at Ling Fei, and then with a thought, it activated the Array Patterns within the furnace.

The Array Patterns writhed, forming a space of Fire Flames, and Tianyuanzi hid inside.

"Heh, you little rascal. You think I can’t do anything to you just because you’re hiding?" Seeing this, Ling Fei was rendered speechless.

’This fellow was so arrogant a moment ago, calling itself ’this master,’ and now it’s actually hiding. It doesn’t have the slightest trace of an expert’s demeanor!’

"Hmph! Kid, don’t get cocky. If the old master hadn’t placed a Restriction on this furnace when he forged it, preventing me from unleashing its full Divine Might, do you think you’d be standing here so casually?" Tianyuanzi snorted, feeling incredibly wronged. After all, the Hidden Furnace Hall was meant to be a fortunate encounter for future generations.

If the Artifact Spirit born within could wield too much power, how could any talented junior possibly subdue it?

Therefore, only after an Artifact Spirit acknowledged a master could the Restriction be broken, allowing for true control over the Supreme Treasure.

"Oh? So you can’t unleash this Pill Furnace’s Divine Might?" Upon hearing this, Ling Fei was delighted. He also found the Artifact Spirit to be adorably foolish.

"This..." Tianyuanzi was at a loss for words, realizing it had misspoken.

This was all because it was too naive.

Although this Artifact Spirit had been gestating for a long time, it had always been cooped up here. Its mind was pure, and it always acted on impulse.

"Hmph! Even if I can’t unleash the Divine Furnace’s Power, what can you do to me?" Tianyuanzi said defiantly after a moment of speechlessness, its little face set in a scowl.

As an Artifact Spirit born from the furnace fire, it could form its own defense within the Fire Forbidden Pattern.

"This is indeed a problem. It seems I’ll have to figure out a way to capture you," Ling Fei said, a slight headache coming on.

"Hmph, hmph. Don’t even think about controlling this furnace," Tianyuanzi snorted.

"You dare to offend me, and you still want this Divine Furnace? Do you take me for a fool? In your dreams!"

Ling Fei’s expression grew pensive. ’I’ve already stepped into the Divine Soul Realm, and my soul is far stronger than before. What would happen if I used the Dragon Bone Pen’s power to execute the Mystical of Capture now?’ The Seizing Dao Pattern of the Dragon Bone was incredibly profound; it could seize the Essence Qi of the world, even Evil Demon Qi.

It could also seize a person’s soul.

Ling Fei’s Divine Soul had also mastered this technique.

However, it would be difficult to succeed using his Divine Soul alone. After all, a barrier formed by the Fire Forbidden Pattern still stood in front of Tianyuanzi.

To unleash the power of the Mystical of Capture, he would still need the Dragon Bone Pen.

’Can I bring the Dragon Bone Pen into this space?’ Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit stirred.

Then, he began to experiment.

First, his true self manifested the Dragon Bone Pen. His Heart Spirit completely merged with it, as if the Dragon Bone Pen were branded onto his very Heart Spirit.

HUMMM!

And so, the Dragon Bone Pen followed Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit, entering the Celestial Essence Divine Furnace’s inner space.

The next moment, as his Heart Spirit integrated, the Dragon Bone Pen merged with the figure manifested by his Heart Spirit inside the Pill Furnace.

’Success!’ Ling Fei rejoiced inwardly, feeling the Dragon Bone Pen merge with him.

’Now then, let’s give it a try!’ Immediately, his Heart Spirit stirred, and his finger tapped the Void before him.

HUMMM!

As Ling Fei tapped forward, a field of hazy, indistinct Light Patterns bloomed, completely shrouding his figure and making him impossible to see clearly.

It was also impossible to make out the form of the Dragon Bone Pen.

The Dragon Bone Pen inherently possessed a Divine Pattern that could deceive the senses. With Ling Fei now deliberately concealing it, nothing short of a Great Power could see through the illusion.

WHOOSH!

Then, the Light Patterns on the Dragon Bone Pen flickered and formed a massive Qi Vortex, which began to forcefully absorb the power of the Fire Flames from the Forbidden Pattern ahead.

Those Fire Flames were incredibly potent, having been left behind by the powerhouse who forged this furnace. However, despite their strength, he had not imbued them with a powerful offensive function.

At present, the Forbidden Pattern was purely for defense.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

But the Dragon Bone Pen continuously absorbed the Fire Flames, drawing them into the Dragon Bone itself.

As time passed, the power of the Forbidden Pattern grew steadily weaker.

’The Celestial Fire is being drawn out! What kind of technique is this kid using?’ Tianyuanzi felt a stir of unease.

’Hmph! This Forbidden Pattern was left behind by the master who forged the Celestial Essence Divine Furnace. There’s no way an ordinary person can destroy it. He definitely can’t keep this up for long!’

Tianyuanzi thought to itself, ’Besides, the might of these Fire Flames can incinerate the heavens and extinguish the earth. It’s not something an ordinary treasure can contain. Hmph, if you want to absorb this Celestial Fire, you can just wait for your treasure to be incinerated!’ It snorted and stared at Ling Fei, waiting for his treasure to be destroyed.

But Ling Fei’s Dragon Bone Pen was completely unharmed.

The Celestial Fire was potent, but the Dragon Bone Pen was even more extraordinary. It directly absorbed the flames and even refined them into Essence Qi, turning them into a source of nourishment.

’Nothing has happened yet?’ After waiting for a while, Tianyuanzi finally grew anxious. Ling Fei was still absorbing the Celestial Fire, and the Forbidden Pattern’s power was steadily weakening.

Finally, half an hour later, once the Forbidden Pattern’s power had weakened to a certain point, it dissipated on its own.

It was as if this was a test set by the furnace’s creator for his successors.

Reaching this stage meant one was worthy of accepting the furnace.

"Oh, my heavens! How can this kid do that?" As the Forbidden Pattern collapsed, Tianyuanzi was on the verge of tears. It stared at Ling Fei, its face a mask of utter shock.
