Old Mr. Feng and Master Chen both agreed, and Mo Hua informed Elder Yu of this matter.
Elder Yu was somewhat surprised, “Even Old Mr. Feng agreed?”
Though Old Mr. Feng only had the cultivation level of the Qi Refining Ninth Level, he was a First-grade Pill Master who had opened a Pill Hall in Tongxian City. Having cured and saved people over so many years, he had extensive connections and held high prestige among cultivators.
Elder Yu had made a special visit to meet with him before, and had indirectly brought up the matter, but Old Mr. Feng tactfully refused, citing “old age and lack of strength to endure hard work.”
He hadn’t expected Old Mr. Feng to agree now.
With Old Mr. Feng’s Alchemy Dao skills and vast connections, surely the alchemists of the Alchemist’s Business didn’t have to worry anymore.
Elder Yu was curious, “How did you persuade them?”
Mo Hua frowned slightly, “I didn’t say much, but it’s a good deed that benefits everyone. Grandpa Feng and Master Chen usually wouldn’t refuse such things.”
They may not have refused you, but they refused me…
Elder Yu looked Mo Hua over again and sighed inwardly.
It seems that the face value of this kid, Mo Hua, is even bigger than his, an Elder of Foundation Establishment…
Mo Hua then asked about the business at hand, “Elder Yu, what about the Refining Furnace you bought?”
“It’s on its way and will arrive in a few days.”
There were also Refining Furnaces for sale in Tongxian City, but not of the first-grade. Even though a few shops wanted to sell, Elder Yu had inquired, but due to the Qian Family’s influence, they didn’t dare to sell.
Elder Yu had no choice but to use his connections and buy a new First-grade Refining Furnace from the neighboring Immortal City.
“It won’t be stolen, will it?” Mo Hua was somewhat worried.
“It’s cash on delivery, so it has nothing to do with us if it’s stolen. I must personally see the Refining Furnace delivered to the doorway of the Refinery Shop before I give them the Spirit Stones,” Elder Yu replied.
Mo Hua nodded.
It’s just like Elder Yu to be so thorough in his dealings, resolute in not taking action until seeing the benefits. It’s a good habit, and Mo Hua thought he should learn from it.
“And the Formation on the Refining Furnace… there are no problems, right?” Elder Yu asked again.
Mo Hua patted his chest, “Don’t worry, leave it to me. I haven’t learned it yet, but I should be fast.”
Learning it now…
Elder Yu had mixed feelings. If it were any other Formation Master, he might be worried about them learning a Formation right before it was needed, but with Mo Hua, Elder Yu had nothing more to say.
“When the Refining Furnace arrives, I’ll let you know,” he said.
“Okay,” Mo Hua nodded.
Afterward, Mo Hua spent his time studying the Melting Fire Formation for a first-grade artifact.
Meanwhile, Master Qian arrived at the study to see the Family Head, Qian Hong.
Master Qian’s complexion was slightly pale, and he seemed a little fatigued, but his spirit was keen, and his eyes showed excitement.
“Family Head, after some days of dedicated research, I have fully mastered the First-grade Melting Fire Formation!”
Qian Hong’s eyebrows raised in delight, “You’ve done hard work, Master Qian. I will immediately order our family’s First-grade Artifact Furnace to be cleared, the original Formation Patterns removed, and have you personally draw the First-grade Melting Fire Formation.”
Qian Hong gave a respectful gesture, “I will entrust this task to you, Master.”
“Of course.”
Qian Hong also breathed a sigh of relief, “With this, we can take the lead.”
The successful establishment of the Monster Hunter’s Refinery Shop, and all the hustle and bustle of preparations, as well as Yu Changlin even managing to buy a First-grade Artifact Furnace from elsewhere, had put a lot of pressure on Qian Hong.
Artifact refining relies heavily on the Refining Furnace.
As long as their Refining Furnaces are better than those of the Monster Hunters, and their Formations are stronger, the quality and quantity of the Spiritual Artifacts they refine will be higher.
For Yu Changlin to think he can compete with the Qian Family is a fool’s dream.
As long as the revenue of Yu Changlin’s Refinery Shop does not cover the expenses, its decline is just a matter of time, and then he will take over the business.
All this time Yu Changlin has been busy, but in the end, he was just preparing a wedding dress for the Qian Family.
Qian Hong pondered over everything, feeling that the only variable was the Formation.
In most Tao Cultivation industries, the core Formation is of utmost importance.
Qian Hong still felt somewhat uneasy and confirmed again, “Is it really impossible for the Formation Masters among the Monster Hunters to learn the First-grade Melting Fire Formation?”
Master Qian waved his hand, “Family Head, rest assured, it’s absolutely impossible!”
Qian Hong looked slightly puzzled, “Why are you so certain, Master?”
Master Qian smiled calmly, “If I hadn’t mastered this Formation, I couldn’t be so sure. But now that I have grasped it, naturally I understand. This Formation is difficult; it’s not something an ordinary Formation Master can learn!”
Qian Hong frowned, “Is it really that difficult?”
“Family Head, you are not a Formation Master, and you don’t understand the intricacies involved.”
Master Qian explained, “The Formation Patterns of the First-grade Melting Fire Formation are somewhat obscure, with strokes that slightly deviate from the basic Fire-series Formation Patterns. The Formation Pivot structure is conventional, yet it demands even more Divine Sense.”
Qian Hong’s gaze became focused, “Aren’t they all First-grade Formation Methods? Why is there such a difference in the required Divine Sense?”
“Family Head might not be aware,” Master Qian said solemnly, “Formations are manifestations of the Heavenly Dao, while grading is a matter of human assessment. How could the Formation Patterns, manifested by the Heavenly Dao, meticulously comply with man-made standards?”
“Thus, within the same tier of Formations, some are more difficult than others, and some require more Divine Sense, while others require less. Generally, they all fall within the same framework with only slight deviations.”
Qian Hong remarked with some emotion, “Formations are indeed profound and intricate.”
Master Qian continued, “Compared to other First-grade Formations, the First-grade Melting Fire Formation requires a bit more Divine Sense. Do not underestimate this extra bit of Divine Sense. When it approaches the limit, increasing it even a little bit is as difficult as climbing to heaven. The extra Divine Sense required by the Melting Fire Formation represents a significant hurdle for Formation Masters, one not all can overcome…”
“Besides, its Formation Patterns are quite obscure, requiring extra practice to become familiar with them. However, due to the high Divine Sense requirement, it is not advisable to practice it repeatedly. Thus, mastering this particular Formation is exceptionally difficult. If someone truly manages to learn it, then that person must certainly possess the strength of a First-grade Formation Master.”
Qian Hong listened, half-understanding, but he grasped the essence of the matter and congratulated him joyfully,
“Master, with your understanding of this Formation, your proficiency in formations has surely advanced further. In the next assessment, the title of First-grade Formation Master should be well within your reach.”
“You flatter me, Family Head. It only increases my chances somewhat. Nothing is certain until the dust has settled,” Master Qian humbly replied, but his expression revealed his pride.
In Immortal City, truly recognized Formation Masters were few and far between, and he was about to become one of them!
Qian Hong immediately instructed his subordinates to prepare a First-grade Refining Furnace and invite Master Qian to inscribe the Formation.
Two days later, Mo Hua also learned the First-grade Melting Fire Formation.
Even though he learned it, Mo Hua still frowned.
He would normally learn a typical First-grade Formation in just a day or two. But this First-grade Melting Fire Formation took him four to five days in total to fluently inscribe the complete Formation.
It wasn’t because this particular Formation required an excessive amount of Divine Sense.
In Mo Hua’s opinion, the Divine Sense required by the First-grade Melting Fire Formation was indeed a bit more, but only a little bit, which was negligible for him, at least less than that needed for the First-grade Compound Formation.
Mo Hua was slower to learn because the Formation Patterns were somewhat obscure, and he had grown accustomed to drawing according to the basic Formation Patterns. Whenever there was a discrepancy, it was easy to make mistakes.
Mo Hua practiced repeatedly for several days until he memorized the Patterns and managed to inscribe the complete First-grade Melting Fire Formation.
“This First-grade Melting Fire Formation is indeed a bit difficult,” Mo Hua nodded, agreeing.
