Chapter 36 Body Cultivation Furnace
"..."
Looking at the hand so close to his face, Ma Xianhong said, "May I ask how you knew so much about my situation?"
"If I want to know, I will naturally find out. Otherwise, why do you think they call me a 'demon'..." Fu Xuan smiled.
"If I don't join, will you still help me find my family?"
"Of course, you don't need to worry about that."
"Alright then."
Snapped!
Ma Xianhong smiled and extended his hand. Finding his family was the most important thing right now. As for joining... he could observe the situation further.
"I'll think about it."
This is a rare talent, and Fu Xuan would never force him. He wanted him to join willingly: "Okay, then you should move to another village first, and then go find your family."
After helping Ma Xianhong up, Fu Xuan suggested, "Now, gather everyone in the village, tell them there's a situation and we need to move to a new location, knock them unconscious, and put them in the 'Devouring Pouch'."
"That's a good idea!"
Now that they knew everything, they couldn't stay here any longer. Ma Xianhong immediately nodded, gathered the top talents, and began making arrangements.
During the process, Fu Xuan helped to uncover more than ten "traitors," all of whom had been subjected to the "Double-Effect Technique" without their knowledge, thus eliminating potential threats.
According to him, Ma Xianhong and his gang knocked out hundreds of villagers, and also collected all kinds of resources in the village, putting them into their food bags and gathering them in front of a temple on the mountain.
"This is all that's left..."
Although they didn't know the specifics, the disciples, who were of superior talent, always followed the leader's lead and didn't ask any questions. They simply pushed open the door.
"So this is the body-cultivating furnace..."
Looking at the enormous furnace inside, Fu Xuan smiled. This was the most powerful magical artifact in the history of the supernatural world, capable of defying the heavens and transforming ordinary people into supernatural beings.
Of course, if we only talk about the effects, he can do it himself. As long as you get his Qi, even an ordinary person who lacks the qualifications can get the Qi sensation. However, his own Qi quantity is ultimately limited and cannot be transformed on a large scale.
But this furnace is different. As long as there is a matching "furnace wielder" and it is thoroughly perfected, it can basically convert 100% of people into superhumans on a large scale, or even directly turn it into an "assembly line" and "industrialize" it.
This was also another purpose of his visit—to observe the furnace up close and understand its workings. In this way, even if Ma Xianhong ultimately did not intend to join, his trip would not have been in vain.
With this, his subsequent plans could proceed smoothly. He wanted to build a large-scale "Inhuman Legion" in the shortest time and at the fastest speed, as the first force to change the world!
"Master Ma, may I take a look?"
"Please!"
Since this guy was able to master the "Divine Craftsmanship" in such a short time, Ma Xianhong naturally nodded. After all, the furnace was not yet completed. If he could see some problems and give some guidance, that would be even better.
Thus, Fu Xuan walked to the cultivation furnace, opened all the lids and doors, and carefully examined it. Soon, he nodded to himself in approval...
"Excellent! Absolutely excellent!"
He could tell that this thing not only combined "Divine Machine Hundred Refinements" and "Dual Hands", but also incorporated modern industrial and biotechnology, making it a culmination of superpowers and technology!
The fact that Ma Xianhong was able to design such magical artifacts shows that he was quite talented in artifact crafting and scientific research. Even without this so-called "miracle skill," even if he were just an ordinary person, he would still have achieved great things.
However, due to the woman's limitations and the repeated alterations to her memories, her talent has never been fully realized; otherwise, she wouldn't have been unable to complete this furnace for twelve years...
"We almost missed it!"
After observing it, Fu Xuan poked his head out and said, "This thing is very good, but there are still some problems with the design. It would be best to disassemble it and redo it."
"Oh?"
Ma Xianhong's eyes lit up: "Tell me more details!"
"Your furnace has probably reached a 'bottleneck.' Even though the 'core' has absorbed enough Qi samples, the theoretically possible functions haven't been completed. This is related to its structure..."
"And of course, there's one more thing: you don't have any 'warlocks' here!"
Fu Xuan smiled and pointed out, "As a weapon refiner, you should know that the most representative figure in this lineage is Huang Yueying from the Three Kingdoms period. The reason she achieved such success was because she had a powerful sorcerer by her side—Zhuge Kongming!"
"The art of crafting artifacts, in essence, is the same as numerology. Both involve creating a specific formation through the structure of the artifact and the flow of Qi to achieve the desired effect. Therefore, truly powerful creations must be combined with numerology, complementing each other... only then can they be accomplished!"
"That's true!"
Ma Xianhong immediately nodded, his excitement rising: "That's exactly one possibility I've thought of, but as you said, I don't have any sorcerers here, so I haven't been able to verify it yet!"
"That's easy. I have plenty of top-tier sorcerers there. You can borrow them anytime you go..."
"And if you're willing to join, I can establish a dedicated team for weapon crafting and research, and guarantee resources and funding. I can recruit any kind of talent you need. What do you say?"
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Xianhong was immediately intrigued. He was a pure tech geek and researcher, and if he could really have such a great environment...
"Ahem!"
"No rush, let's take a look first."
Seeing his reaction, Fu Xuan knew that the recruitment was almost a done deal, so he didn't waste any more words: "Alright, then smash the furnace and take the core with you."
Ma Xianhong thought the same way, so he immediately gave the order, and the people with superior roots rushed forward and quickly dismantled the cultivation furnace, putting the "core" into the "devouring sac".
With that, the preparations for the "village relocation" were complete. Without further ado, everyone left the village under the cover of night and headed towards the nearest airport.
On the way to the airport.
Fu Xuan helped everyone change their appearance.
They also had the Feng family find twelve plausible identities, bought plane tickets, and everything went very smoothly.
Through Ma Xianhong's Qi, he also sensed the location of his grandfather's Qi, as well as the faint Qi within other members of the Ma family, and immediately pinpointed the location...
The plane took off quickly.
Heading towards Shanghai.
……
……
At the same time.
The Shanghai branch of Yaoxing Society.
In the top-floor office, the woman who had been resting with her eyes closed frowned and opened them.
She sensed for a moment, then raised her hand and channeled her Qi into the ring on her wrist, causing the gemstone to light up: "Immortal Flood..."
"..."
There was no response.
"How could that be?"
The woman picked up her phone again and tried to contact other people, dialing more than a dozen numbers but none of them went through... She realized something was wrong.
Her face darkened, and she dialed another number, issuing a direct order: "Keep a close eye on the Ma family, don't let a single one escape..."
"I will send someone over."
