Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1211: Chapter 801: Jade Marrow Pill Success Rate Soars

”You can refine elixirs?”

”I can’t, but I can help my master refine them, I can help control the fire!” said the Golden Crow.

Yang Zhenshan suddenly understood.

The Golden Crow continued, ”Master, there’s a lot of garbage in the furnace, do you want to clean it out?”

”Garbage? What kind of garbage?”

”Some old elixirs and spiritual medicines, but their spiritual power has been completely lost,” said the Golden Crow.

Yang Zhenshan’s eyes lit up, was this the inheritance left by Shengyang True Monarch?

”Take them out for me to see!”

The Golden Crow obediently opened the pill furnace, and a pile of miscellaneous items appeared in front of Yang Zhenshan, forming a small mountain.

Yang Zhenshan was initially pleased with so many things, but a trace of disappointment quickly flashed across his face.

Though there were many items, none of them were useful.

The Golden Crow was right; the spiritual power in these items had long dissipated.

The original elixirs and spiritual medicines had lost all their medicinal properties.

A time span of ten thousand years is just too long; spirit pills and spiritual medicines simply can’t be preserved for that long.

After the disappointment, Yang Zhenshan stepped forward and used his spiritual sense to communicate with the pill furnace, discovering that it housed a large space. It wasn’t for alchemy, but a storage space meant for storing herbs and elixirs.

Inside, it was empty, with nothing left.

”Do you know any alchemy inheritance?” Yang Zhenshan asked, still refusing to give up hope.

The Golden Crow seemed to sense the expectation in Yang Zhenshan’s eyes and pondered for a moment before saying, ”Master, I know how to refine one type of elixir!”

”What kind?”

”Demon Core!”

Yang Zhenshan raised an eyebrow, ”What kind of Demon Core?”

Elixirs come in many varieties, such as medicinal, demon, and mineral.

”A pure Demon Core, I can refine creatures into a pure Demon Core to aid the master’s cultivation!”

Yang Zhenshan roughly understood what it meant. It wasn’t exactly refining a Demon Core but rather purifying a Spiritual Energy Pill by refining a creature, leaving only the purest spiritual energy to enhance cultivation when consumed.

”Creature? Can Mutant Beasts work?”

”Mutant Beasts?” The Golden Crow seemed perplexed.

Yang Zhenshan pointed to the Flying Slave Eagle soaring in the sky, ”Like that kind of Mutant Beast!”

The Golden Crow looked up, disdainfully saying, ”That’s just a young demon that hasn’t transformed, easily reduced to ash with a single flame; you can’t refine a Demon Core from that!”

”Transformation? Can Mutant Beasts transform?” Yang Zhenshan caught onto a new term.

”Naturally, as long as demon beasts can cultivate, they can transform!” said the Golden Crow.

”What realm must a demon beast reach to transform?”

”Second-Order, which is the Foundation Establishment Stage!”

”What if they can’t transform?”

Yang Zhenshan thought of those Martial God Level mutant beasts he’d seen, none of whom seemed to have transformed.

”Then they haven’t learned a cultivation method. If it’s a Second-Order demon beast, it can indeed be refined into a Demon Core!” replied the Golden Crow, still pondering the alchemy of the Demon Core.

Yang Zhenshan nodded slightly, realizing that perhaps demon beasts do have a cultivation method; without it, they can’t transform, but with it, they could assume human form.

”Do you have a cultivation method for demon beasts?”

”I don’t!” said the Golden Crow.

Yang Zhenshan wasn’t disappointed; he only asked casually, not having high expectations of the Golden Crow.

To him, this Golden Crow Eight Trigrams Furnace was a rare treasure, but in the hands of that Golden Core True Essence, it might have been just a somewhat useful Spiritual Treasure; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been left in the Ancient Relic Array.

”Can it be used to refine First-order elixirs?” Yang Zhenshan looked at the Eight Trigrams Furnace and asked.

”Yes, but I can’t use True Sun Fire, only Earth Fire or Spiritual Fire. I can also control Earth Fire and Spiritual Fire for my master!” the Golden Crow said ingratiatingly.

Looking at the eager emotions in its eyes, Yang Zhenshan couldn’t help but be a bit puzzled.

This Golden Crow wasn’t short on wisdom, but its nature was somewhat simple, incapable of hiding its emotions, with a bit of a child-like temperament.

”Why do you acknowledge me as your master?”

He voiced his inner doubt.

”Master is the Lord of the Grotto Heaven!” said the Golden Crow.

”What’s different about the Lord of the Grotto Heaven?” Yang Zhenshan asked, puzzled.

”The Lord of the Grotto Heaven’s Divine Soul is immortal, can observe longevity unceasingly, and can also lodge Spiritual Treasures within the Cave Heaven Origin!”

”Lodging Spiritual Treasures within the Cave Heaven Origin? What’s the benefit of that?”

”Of course, there are benefits. If the master lodged me within the Cave Heaven Origin, I could act as the sun of the Grotto Heaven, sharing the same fate with it, never again being obliterated by the river of time!”

”Of course, this would still require the master to lodge the Grotto Heaven within the Void. The master cannot enter the Void now, but I believe the master will definitely enter it in the future and lodge the Grotto Heaven in the Void!”

The Golden Crow leapt on Yang Zhenshan’s shoulder, saying happily.

Hearing all of this, Yang Zhenshan found it very intriguing that even an Artifact Spirit didn’t want to die and wanted to be the sun inside the Grotto Heaven. It was a rather intriguing idea.

Though the Golden Crow Eight Trigrams Furnace wasn’t a real Three-legged Golden Crow, it had True Sun Fire, and letting it act as the sun seemed harmless.

But as of now, it was just Yang Zhenshan’s idea, as he was still far from lodging the Spirit Source Land in the Void, so it remained just a thought.

”I see, but these are all matters for the future. For now, let’s go practice alchemy!”

As he spoke, Yang Zhenshan moved the Eight Trigrams Furnace to the Earth Fire Mountain in the east.

”How’s this Earth Fire?”

”It’s a bit weak, but if it’s just to refine First-order elixirs, it will barely suffice,” the Golden Crow said, looking at the Earth Fire sealed by the array.
