643: Chapter 643 The Furnace of Myriad Phenomena Returning to Origin!
It's like a container with a limited capacity.
If you pour water into it, it will fill up to a certain point, and any more will cause it to overflow.
If you force water beyond its capacity into the container, it will shatter.
A Martial Artist's body is the same.
Forcibly fusing Profound Truths beyond one's tolerance limit can result in anything from damaged Meridians to death by bodily explosion.
The Seven-Colored Artifact spirit used chains to seal away part of the Profound Truths to protect him.
"But, Senior Artifact spirit, could you perhaps take away this 0.2% of Five Elements Profundity and give me more Spear Dao Profundity instead?"
Qin Yan grinned as he looked at the Seven-Colored Artifact spirit.
His reasoning was simple — Five Elements Profundity was of little use to him at the moment.
His cultivation of the Five Elements Primordial Scripture relied entirely on allocating Skill Points; he didn't need to comprehend the Dao of the Five Elements himself at all.
The greatest benefit Five Elements Profundity offered him was a significant increase in speed when cultivating the Ice Flame Spear Technique, and a slight acceleration effect when later cultivating the prerequisite Spear Intents for the Taiyang Spear Intent.
Other than that, Five Elements Profundity offered almost no help in boosting his current combat power.
Spear Dao Profundity, however, was different.
Spear Dao Profundity was directly related to the overall combat power of his Spear Intent, Spear Techniques, and Spear Dao.
With Spear Dao Profundity, his Spear Intent could improve faster, his Spear Techniques could advance more quickly, and his combat strength could increase at a greater pace.
But the Seven-Colored Artifact spirit shook its head.
"There is no Spear Dao Profundity left in the tower now."
"Spear Dao Profundity was always scarce within the Five Elements Yin-Yang Hunyuan Tower. What you obtained before already constituted most of the tower's stockpile."
Hearing this, Qin Yan was slightly taken aback.
"None left?"
He felt somewhat disappointed.
But he quickly adjusted his mindset.
"Moreover—"
The Seven-Colored Artifact spirit continued, its tone becoming meaningful.
"Don't think that the Five Elements Profundity is merely occupying a large portion of your Profound Truth capacity now. Once you Cultivate the Five Elements Primordial Scripture to the second layer, there will be a surprise."
"A surprise?"
Hearing this, Qin Yan was also startled.
A flicker of curiosity passed through his eyes.
The second layer of the Five Elements Primordial Scripture — that was a level only reachable at the Grandmaster Realm.
He had only reached 53% of the first layer now; the road to the second layer was still very long.
But the "surprise" mentioned by the Artifact spirit filled him with anticipation.
This Artifact spirit was clearly an existence of unfathomable depth.
Something it called a "surprise" was definitely not simple!
"Senior Artifact spirit, could you give a hint about what this surprise is?"
Qin Yan probed, his voice carrying a note of ingratiation.
The Seven-Colored Artifact spirit shook its head, a mysterious smile playing on its lips.
"Heaven's secrets cannot be divulged."
"Senior, I'm really very curious..."
Unwilling to give up, Qin Yan pressed further.
"You just need to know that the Five Elements Primordial Scripture is far more powerful than you imagine."
"The true function of this Cultivation Technique only begins to reveal itself at the second layer of the Five Elements Primordial Scripture."
Hearing this, Qin Yan was slightly stunned.
"Senior, then..."
But the Seven-Colored Artifact spirit had already closed its eyes, wearing an expression that said, "I will not answer any more."
After that, no matter how Qin Yan tried to fish for information, the Artifact spirit refused to say another word.
Qin Yan obtained no further information from the Artifact spirit.
"Alright then..."
Qin Yan finally sighed helplessly.
He knew that with his current strength, he wasn't yet qualified to know too much.
Once he cultivated the Five Elements Primordial Scripture to the second layer, he would naturally find out.
Then, with a thought, Qin Yan withdrew his consciousness from the Five Elements Yin-Yang Hunyuan Tower.
As for challenging the sixty-first floor, Qin Yan hadn't attempted it.
Because the strength of the guardian puppet on the sixty-first floor would reach the terrifying Grandmaster Realm.
And not just any ordinary Grandmaster — it was the kind with a solid Foundation and profound heritage (reserves/background).
With Qin Yan's current strength, challenging a Grandmaster-level guardian would be nothing but asking for trouble.
...
Qin Yan's spirit returned to his body.
He opened his eyes and found himself still sitting cross-legged in the cultivation chamber of his Immortal Cave.
Qin Yan took a deep breath, settled his mind into his body, and began to carefully contemplate the Divine Ability he had obtained from the sixtieth floor.
As Qin Yan read, the veil over this Divine Ability was lifted layer by layer.
Myriad Forms Return to Origin Furnace.
That was its name.
Qin Yan continued reading.
Myriad Forms Return to Origin Furnace: Forge a Return to Origin Furnace within the body, using one's own essence blood as fire to smelt the various Intents within the furnace.
Refine away the exclusive imprints within each Intent, leaving behind pure Intent.
Intents would no longer repel each other, no longer conflict with one another...
Half a quarter-hour later, Qin Yan finally finished reading about this Divine Ability.
He withdrew his focus, let out a long breath, his eyes filled with astonishment.
"What an incredible Divine Ability!"
Qin Yan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
The Myriad Forms Return to Origin Furnace had only one purpose: it specifically targeted Supreme-level Intents.
Supreme-level Intents were incomparably domineering and possessed an extremely strong exclusivity.
An ordinary Martial Artist could only bear one Supreme-level Intent within their body.
Forcibly cultivating two Supreme-level Intents simultaneously would only cause conflict, leading to anything from Qi Deviation to severed Meridians and a collapsed Soul.
But the appearance of the Myriad Forms Return to Origin Furnace completely shattered this ironclad rule.
It could wear away the exclusivity and domineering nature of the True Intents within the furnace, allowing various Supreme-level Intents to coexist within Qin Yan's body simultaneously, without interfering with each other, harmoniously coexisting.
Moreover, this Divine Ability could smelt up to a full five Supreme-level Intents!
In other words, as long as Qin Yan cultivated this Divine Ability to Perfection, and he had the capability to Cultivate five Supreme-level Intents, with a mere lift of his hand, he could unleash five Supreme-level Intents simultaneously!
That image was frightening to even think about.
One must know that a single Supreme-level Intent could amplify one's own life force and Qi by five times!
So, if five Supreme-level Intents erupted together, what multiple would that reach?
5 x 5 x 5 x 5 x 5? Or 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5?
Or perhaps it would just be a simple, slight increase?
Qin Yan didn't know.
"Forget it, let's not think about that for now."
Qin Yan shook his head, temporarily suppressing these chaotic thoughts.
He hadn't even condensed a single Supreme-level Intent yet, let alone five.
Afterwards, Qin Yan spent a little time comprehending the Myriad Forms Return to Origin Furnace Divine Ability and found it obscure, difficult to understand, and profoundly abstruse.
Those runes, mantras, and energy circulation pathways were each mysterious and unfathomable, leaving him completely baffled.
At this rate of comprehension, without ten days to half a month, he wouldn't even be able to achieve initial mastery.
He might as well not delve into it for now.
After all, this Divine Ability was for fusing Supreme-level Intents, and he was still a long way off from even the Great Destruction Spear Intent.
It wouldn't be too late to comprehend this Divine Ability when he truly condensed a Supreme-level Spear Intent one day.
"Why does it suddenly feel like I've become so busy?"
Qin Yan rubbed his temples, feeling that time was a bit scarce.
His cultivation Realm needed to be raised, the Destruction Spear Intent needed to be comprehended, the Myriad Forms Return to Origin Furnace needed to be studied, and his progress in Alchemy couldn't fall behind either...
Each matter was important, and each required a significant investment of time and energy.
