Chapter 1775: Profound Furnace Spirit Weapons Heaven

Ye Qing gently waved his hand. No wind blew, but metallic ringing and clanging filled the air as the weapons and treasures on the ground flew into the sky as if pulled by an invisible power.

Ye Qing curled his fingers slightly and tapped. Ripples appeared in the air, and a sweet, melodious ringing spread out. The weapons and treasures floating in the air vibrated slightly as ribbons of light joined, and colors blended into a fantastical kaleidoscope.

Unfortunately, the ribbons of light only lasted an instant. They all disappeared the next moment.

When Ye Qing withdrew his fingers, the suspended weapons and treasures fell back to the ground like the rain. It looked mighty impressive.

“What a shame!”

Just like the Lone Moon Cold Star, these weapons and treasures were all one-of-a-kind divine weapons or Strange Artifacts when they were at tiptop condition. Even one of them could stir up a bloody storm in the

jianghu

, much less all of them.

Alas, every single weapon and treasure had lost their spirituality and power. They were no more than mundane weapons now.

Naturally, Ye Qing thought that it was a terrible shame.

“Which heaven is this, Qingyou?” he asked.

Feng Qingyou answered after thinking for a moment, “I believe it’s the Profound Furnace Spirit Weapon Heaven.”

“Legend has it that the master of the Profound Furnace Spirit Weapon Heaven is the Weapon Might Divine Sovereign. The Weapon Might Divine Sovereign paved his Way through artifact forging, and he is most proficient at forging all sorts of divine arms and Strange Artifacts. Many famous artifacts of ancient times are forged by his hands.”

“In fact, legend has it that the Weapon Might Divine Sovereign is neither human, demon, celestial or Buddha. He’s not a manifestation of nature, spirit, essence or qi either. He is an artifact spirit.”

“An artifact spirit?” Ye Qing was very interested.

“That’s right.” Feng Qingyou nodded. “He is the artifact spirit of a forging furnace.”

“In fact, you’ve probably heard of the forging furnace before.”

“I do?”

Ye Qing exclaimed in surprise before he recalled something. “Could it be the legendary Divine Furnace of Nature?”

Feng Qingyou nodded. “That is correct.”

“Unbelievable! The artifact spirit of the Divine Furnace of Nature?” Ye Qing exclaimed in astonishment. The Divine Furnace of Nature was an ultimate treasure on par with the likes of the Clear Sky Mirror, Earthly Sovereign Bell, Xuanyuan Sword, Heaven Turning Seal, Primal Chaos Banner and more.

Although the Divine Furnace of Nature lacked the offensive power and fortune-securing ability of some ultimate treasures, it had forged many famous divine artifacts that were remembered to this day. For example, there was the Demon Slaying Sword, the Nirvana Pearl, the Demon Suppressing Banner of Buddha, the Nine Dragons Jade Chariot, the Gold Coin of Falling Treasure, the Mind Falling Banner, the Soul Ending Bell, and more. They were all created by the Divine Furnace of Nature.

Because of this, the Divine Furnace of Nature was nicknamed the Mother of Weapons and Treasures and the Profound Wonder of Nature.

Legend had it that the first master of the Divine Furnace of Nature was the Origin One Celestial Sovereign. He had used it to forge many divine arms and treasures, though none of them were renowned objects that were remembered throughout the ages.

It wasn’t until the Origin One Celestial Sovereign passed away, and the Divine Furnace of Nature no longer had a master that its artifact spirit called itself the Weapon Might Divine Sovereign and invented all kinds of famous weapons and treasures.

However, Ye Qing did not know that the lord and master of the Profound Furnace Spirit Weapons Heaven was the legendary Weapon Might Divine Sovereign.

Feng Qingyou continued, “Also, did you know how the Profound Furnace Spirit Weapons Heaven was created?”

Ye Qing made the connection and exclaimed in shock, “You mean... the Divine Furnace of Nature...?”

“That’s right.” Feng Qingyou confirmed his suspicion. “Legend has it that this heaven was created by the Weapon Might Divine Sovereign using the Divine Furnace of Nature.”

“Because of this, any natural resource and spirit material that entered this heaven would automatically be refined into a divine weapon or treasure.”

“This includes gods, demons, celestials and Buddhas. The Profound Furnace Spirit Weapons Heaven could refine it all into weapons and treasures. The legendary Human Seed Bag, Five Viscera Tree, Hundred-headed Demonic Diagram and more were refined using the bodies and minds of supreme existences by the Profound Furnace Spirit Weapons Heaven.”

“I see! That is what the forging furnace was plotting!”

Ye Qing realized now why the forging furnace had trapped them inside its belly. It was going to refine them into weapons!

“Qingyou, do you think it’s possible that that forging furnace is a wisp of the Divine Furnace of Nature’s spirit?” Ye Qing asked.

“It’s possible.”

Feng Qingyou answered with a pondering look, “This world is not completely dead like the Myriad Beast Forest Ascension Heaven. It still possesses some life.”

Ye Qing nodded in agreement. In fact, he felt the same thing. “In that case, we definitely cannot allow that furnace to escape.”

Ye Qing took one step forward and pierced the void. He flowed endlessly in the six places and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

“Huh? Where did it go?”

However, right before he would catch up to the furnace, he suddenly lost track of it.

It was almost as if the furnace had suddenly vanished into thin air.

In fact, that was exactly what happened. When he arrived at the location where the forging furnace had disappeared, all he found was an empty, barren ground.

“Strange. How did it disappear like that?”

Ye Qing unleashed his demonic thought and scanned everything within fifty kilometers down to the finest speck of dust. However, he still found nothing.

“My senses cannot pick up anything either.”

Feng Qingyou looked around her thoughtfully. “Assuming the furnace really is a wisp of the Divine Furnace of Nature’s spirit, and the Divine Furnace of Nature had transformed into the Profound Furnace Spirit Weapons Heaven, then the spirit could be hiding anywhere in this heaven.”

“Suffice to say, it is beyond difficult to find a grain in the sea; to procure a specific drop of water from a river!”

“We mean no harm, senior. Would you please show yourself?”

Ye Qing clasped his hands in front of him and bowed to the air.

Although it felt weird to address a furnace as a senior, it was never wrong to be polite.

“Senior, we don’t mean to intrude into your realm. We are simply looking for a friend.”

Ye Qing continued, “Have you seen this man before? If you have, can you please tell us about his whereabouts?”

Ye Qing created the image of White Robe Demon Master in the air and waited for a moment. However, he received no response.

Not giving up yet, Ye Qing continued, “In that case, can you tell us how to leave the Profound Furnace Spirit Weapons Heaven and journey to another heaven?”

Still, no one responded to his question.

“Tsk. It looks like this senior prefers forfeits over toasts!”

Ye Qing gave Feng Qingyou a helpless smile. “In that case, let’s grant him his wish!”

Despite what the furnace tried to do to them, he was going to enter a peaceful negotiation with the furnace. You scratch my back, I scratch yours and all that.

However, it was clear that the furnace wasn’t planning to give him face.

In that case, there was no need to feign politeness or offer compromise any longer.

No, it was time to amp up the pressure!

As he spoke, Ye Qing raised his arm a meter like he was carrying lakes and rivers, and curled his fingers three inches like he was lifting a mountain.

When his fingers were fully clenched, he was holding both mountains and rivers in his palm.

Suspended in the air and facing toward the earth, Ye Qing slowly threw out a punch.

As soon as the fist descended, the river flowed endlessly, and both the mountains and the earth collapsed in earnest.

Rumble!

It was as if the mountains and rivers were the muscles and bones, and the ground was a drum. He hammered the earth with his fist again and again.
