Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1580: Chapter 1579: World-Melding Furnace

Su Yang was once again shocked; these things were beyond his wildest dreams. A Furnace Cauldron had such terrifying power?

”What kind of power is considered enough power?” Su Yang asked.

”I don’t know!” Yuan Tiangang shrugged. ”It’s just records in the ancient texts. No one knows the specifics. However, this World-Melting Furnace is not complete, so its power is surely greatly limited. Look at all the damaged places on it; to restore the original power of the World-Melting Furnace, it must be completely repaired. Otherwise, its attack power won’t be as strong—at most just a powerful Magic Artifact!”

Looking at the battered World-Melting Furnace, Su Yang’s initially excited heart calmed down.

Although the World-Melting Furnace was extraordinary, completing it was no trivial task. After all is said and done, isn’t it still not very meaningful?

”Don’t be discouraged!” Wu Daozi patted Su Yang’s shoulder. ”Even if the World-Melting Furnace is not complete, its attack power can still be effective. Moreover, for you, this furnace is the perfect choice to use for pill refining. According to the records we saw, when using the World-Melting Furnace for pill refining, you can refine pills of a higher level, even two levels higher.”

”What do you mean?” Su Yang asked, bewildered.

Wu Daozi: ”Simply put, you have not yet reached the Earthly Immortal Realm, so there are many elixirs you cannot refine. But with this World-Melting Furnace, you can refine elixirs that only Earth Immortals can make. Furthermore, if you can unlock its potential, you can even refine elixirs of an even higher level, unrestricted by your own power!”

”Really?” Su Yang was shocked. ”Is there... such an effect?”

”Why would I lie to you?” Wu Daozi shrugged. ”If you don’t believe me, try it out later!”

Su Yang’s eyes suddenly turned fiery as he looked at the World-Melting Furnace.

He knew many methods for refining elixirs, but lacked the strength to make some himself, often needing Qinghe Academy to help. Now with this World-Melting Furnace, he could refine these elixirs himself, couldn’t he?

Moreover, if he could go two levels higher, he could refine even higher-grade elixirs, which would surely have a greater allure for the Earthly Immortals!

Su Yang immediately patted the Little Turtle and encouraged it: ”You did very well this time, excellently!”

The Little Turtle crawled proudly around Su Yang’s shoulder, looking as if it had finally proved itself.

The little chick seemed unwilling, chirping endlessly beside Su Yang, as if discontented with Su Yang’s praise for the Little Turtle alone.

Su Yang sighed helplessly and patted the little chick: ”You also did very well!”

The little chick was satisfied, chirping a few more sounds before settling on Su Yang’s shoulder to doze off.

Su Yang gathered up the two little creatures, who had consumed too many elixirs and needed time to absorb them. Being Divine Beasts, their ability to absorb elixirs was excellent, offering them tremendous benefits this time.

This time, the two little creatures had nearly plundered all of Horizon’s End’s supplies. How Horizon’s End would react upon learning of this, one could only guess!

Su Yang and his group did not linger here, swiftly heading towards the Innate Sect after tidying up.

Fan Yangxiu’s relatives had already arrived at Qinghe Academy on a special flight, marking the start of Su Yang’s planned operation. His side’s Five Great Sects dispatched experts headed directly for the Innate Sect under the guise of avenging Su Yang, which was really to deceive the Four Great Sects.

The Four Great Sects had been prepared long ago; as the Five Great Sects hurried to the Innate Sect, the Four Great Sects also mobilized.

However, instead of heading directly to the Innate Sect, they intercepted the people of the Five Great Sects along the way.

The two main objectives for this action were: first, to fight outside the Innate Sect, providing the Heavenly Court with a reason to intervene. Previously, when Qinghe Academy intercepted the Four Great Sects, the Heavenly Court had used the excuse of the mortals below to halt the battle, leaving things unresolved.

The Four Great Sects knew that their strength was inferior to the Su Yang Alliance’s and would suffer if a battle broke out. Therefore, they chose to fight outside, allowing the Heavenly Court to intervene and minimize their losses.

The second objective was to prevent the battle from extending to the Innate Sect. In their view, with Fan Yangxiu holding the Innate Sect’s reins and Horizon’s End sending reinforcements, taking over the Innate Sect was only a matter of time.

Given this situation, there was no need to escalate the conflict at the Innate Sect. Should Su Yang’s Alliance also reach the Innate Sect, regardless of the outcome, the Innate Sect would undoubtedly suffer considerable losses, making future collaboration with the Four Great Sects meaningless.

Keeping the battle outside allowed Fan Yangxiu to quickly gain full control of the Innate Sect. Then, the Innate Sect would be firmly in Fan Yangxiu’s hands, allowing collaboration with the Four Great Sects, thereby retaining the Innate Sect’s power to the fullest extent possible. This way, the Four Great Sects would essentially become allied with the Innate Sect, equaling an alliance of five sects having comparable power to the Su Yang Alliance!

With these intentions, the Four Great Sects intercepted the Su Yang Alliance at a point three hundred kilometers from the Innate Sect. Both sides waged war there, but the Four Great Sects were not focused on the battle; their aim was merely to stop the Su Yang Alliance from reaching the Innate Sect!

In such circumstances, Su Yang and his companions had covertly bypassed the clashing forces and snuck into the Innate Sect.

The Innate Sect was also in turmoil, as news of the outside battle between the Four Great Sects and the Su Yang Alliance reached them. Internally, Fan Yangxiu had assembled forces to prepare for his takeover.

The Great Elder and the Second Elder were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, having patiently awaited the arrival of the Su Yang Alliance to resolve the matter. However, after a long wait, the members of Su Yang’s Alliance were intercepted outside.

During this time, their inactivity caused many of their supporters to shift allegiance to Fan Yangxiu. Coupled with Shen Yongnian’s recruitment of new followers, their remaining strength accounted for less than twenty percent of the Innate Sect’s original power.

Fan Yangxiu, on the other hand, commanded sixty percent of the Innate Sect’s strength, making the disparity between the two factions notably significant!
