"Divine Grade?" Zhao Rong and Zhao Qian’er’s eyes widened slightly as they exchanged glances... Hmm, they hadn’t heard of it.
But it sounded very impressive at first listen.
"Yes, Divine Grade," the Moon Mother said mysteriously. "All over the world, female furnaces are divided into the Three Grades, each with three ranks. Above them, there is a grade that is one in ten thousand — Top Grade. However, above all that."
She paused momentarily, looking at Zhao Rong and Zhao Qian’er who were listening intently in front of her, and then nodded in satisfaction:
"Above that, there are a few legendary furnaces. Women who possess this miraculous constitution, each one of them is favored by the Yin Yang Great Dao, masterpieces of the Heavenly Dao, rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns."
"The number and types of these legendary furnaces might vary, approximately ten, collectively referred to by the ancients as... the Ten Famous Furnaces, also known as Famous Artifacts."
"Women who possess a legendary furnace are even rarer than a Sword Cultivator’s Class A Flying Sword. Many of them are exclusive to women of the Demon Race and other phantasms, with less than half of the types owned by the Human Clan."
The Moon Mother leaned back slightly, and proclaimed word by word with an authoritative tone:
"This... is the Divine Furnace!"
She, who often had to fake smiles as an old madam, proudly raised her head on this rare occasion, her tone proud.
"The legend of the Li Territory states that the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden from the Ancient Moon Palace gave birth to the first ancestors of the Li Territory. And in our bloodline of the Li people, there still flows the blood of the Li ancestors. Therefore, we are descendants of the Divine Descendants from the Ancient Moon Palace!"
"And among the Ten Famous Furnaces, one Divine Famous Furnace is exclusive to our Li ancestors, its name is..."
"Pure White Cold Palace."
One of the Ten Famous Furnaces... Pure White Cold Palace?
Zhao Rong raised his eyebrows suddenly, remembering something a Sword Spirit had once mentioned in jest about a famous furnace.
But at that time, Zhao Rong had not paid much attention. After all, such matters of chance are well understood.
And besides, he wasn’t into any form of supplementation; on the contrary, the robust him was actually worried about being harvested by Su Xiaoxiao, that silly girl, in her bewilderment and turned into dried-up remains.
Furnaces were something that practitioners of the alternative Yin Yang Dao cultivated, right? Hmm, the Fox Clan must also have a natural talent for it.
Zhao Qian’er pursed her lips and furrowed her brows, listening carefully.
She spoke up in her crisp voice:
"What sort of nonsensical famous furnace? I’ve heard of furnaces, but what are these famous furnaces that some idle men have concocted? Tell me, what is the use of these Ten Famous Furnaces?"
The Moon Mother slowed her pace and shook her head:
"Each of the Ten Famous Furnaces possesses its unique miraculous powers. Many have lost their specific benefits over time, such as those belonging to unique races that have gone extinct."
She sighed. "Additionally, the ancient texts I’ve read are incomplete; I haven’t seen the relevant content. But I do know that whoever first harvests a famous furnace reaps boundless benefits and can obtain a unique ability."
"The ’Pure White Cold Palace,’ which is unique to the female ancestors of our Li people, its miraculous power, I do know a little. Because in the history of our Li people, there have occasionally been Li women who revert to their ancestors, possessing the ’Pure White Cold Palace’."
"What miraculous power?"
"It can... instantly heal someone on the brink of death."
Zhao Qian’er tapped her finger against her lips, wrinkling her dainty nose, "Nonsense, famous furnaces are still furnaces, they require... harvesting before they can be used. If someone is on the brink of death, how can they possibly use a famous furnace?"
The Moon Mother spoke softly, "Who said it needs to be used on the spot? If harvested in advance, the ’Famous Furnace Medicine Power’ stays within the body. At the moment of near death, as long as there is still a breath left, the ’Famous Furnace Medicine Power’ can instantly take effect, restoring the person to their original state."
Zhao Rong remained quietly silent.
The Moon Mother glanced at him and smiled, "Our Fairy Luo Xiu from the Zuixian Building is the Pure White Cold Palace!"
