Outside the Sacred Mountain.

"Thank you, Senior." ×3

Long Fan and the other two respectfully bowed to the One-Eyed Elder.

Only then did they turn and leave the Sacred Mountain's grounds.

Every guardian of the Sacred Mountain had once been, at minimum, a Seventh Rank Saint Hall Knight.

After completing their duties and handing over their Mithril Base Battle Armor, they retired.

Like the One-Eyed Elder before them, the disabilities on his body were marks of merit earned in battle against the Demon Race.

Even if the three Divine Seal Knights came, they would have to bow to these elders.

Because they were the pride and glory of the Knight Hall!

The three had arrived properly and departed respectfully.

The month-long tour officially came to an end.

They had all obtained suitable mounts from the guaranteed draw.

After retreating to the edge of the Sacred Mountain, Long Fan and Long Xiaogua went their separate ways.

He met up with his master, Yang Haoyu.

Then, riding the Starry Sky Beast once more, they hurried back to Bright Moon City.

Bright Moon Branch City.

The small wooden cabin on Tor Mountain.

Ever since obtaining the contracted mount, it had remained inside the Forget-Me-Not Ring, incubating.

The one he had drawn was no worse than Bright Moon.

Long Fan could already sense its life aura growing increasingly vigorous.

It would occasionally glow a deep blue.

The hatching process was steadily accelerating.

And over these few short days, Long Fan had grasped eighty to ninety percent of the Punishment Cultivation Method Yang Haoyu had taught him.

It was also time to go down the mountain and learn the Guardian Mysteries.

It was still early morning.

The old man and the youth finished their final breakfast.

This time, Long Fan was also permitted to drink a little wine.

Of course, it was only enough to pleasantly lift the mood.

The alcohol was easily dissolved by the Inner Spiritual Power within his body.

As usual, one in front and one behind, master and disciple left the small wooden cabin, weathered by wind, rain, and sun, yet still unchanged in color.

Standing atop Tor Mountain, a cool breeze blew gently.

Yang Haoyu spoke in a deep voice.

"Xiaofan, before you leave, your master still has one final thing to teach you."

Curiosity filled Long Fan's eyes as he asked, "Master, what is it?"

Yang Haoyu nodded.

"A spiritual stove."

Hearing those two words, Long Fan's eyes immediately lit up.

"A spiritual stove?!"

Naturally, he knew about this treasure.

It was basically on the same level as the martial souls of neighboring Douluo Continent.

A spiritual stove was a furnace for spiritual power.

This was not an ability cultivated by a professional.

Rather, it was a supreme treasure nurtured by the wondrous nature of the Saint Demon Continent.

As far as currently known, there were seventy-four types of Spiritual Furnaces, each suited to different professions.

Moreover, Spiritual Furnaces themselves were ranked.

They were evaluated comprehensively based on their uses, power, growth potential, and other factors.

There were five major grades in total.

Among them, the Saint Attraction Spiritual Furnace—the most common knight furnace for taunting, drawing aggro, and luring monsters—could only be classified as Grade Five.

The lowest grade.

The Thousand Strike Spiritual Furnace—the Assassin Temple's favorite murder-and-arson Golden Belt—belonged among Grade Three Spiritual Furnaces.

After completing its evolution, its attack power would increase dramatically.

As for Grade One Spiritual Furnaces, only one was currently known.

That was Saint Caier's Reincarnation Spiritual Furnace—the kind that took no money, only life.

When used, it unleashed terrifying power, enough to directly fight opponents two ranks above the norm.

Of course.

Spiritual Furnaces were not omnipotent.

Nor was a more powerful Spiritual Furnace necessarily better suited to its user.

And the more powerful a Spiritual Furnace was, the greater the price one had to pay to use it.

The top ten Spiritual Furnaces all required tremendous sacrifices to unleash.

For example, when Saint Caier used her Reincarnation Spiritual Furnace, the wielder would gradually lose their six senses.

Also.

Nearly every Spiritual Furnace possessed its own unique characteristics.

Take the Saint Attraction Spiritual Furnace, for instance. It ranked around sixty-eighth.

It possessed no offensive or defensive capabilities, nor could it greatly increase Inner Spiritual Power.

However, when the Saint Attraction Spiritual Furnace was used, it could draw the enemy's attention.

Making the opponent attack only you, rather than your companions.

Simply put, it pulled aggro.

It could not be said to be very similar to Bai Qi's ultimate skill, Taunt—it was practically identical.

Except one was an active skill, while the other was passive.

It gave off a bizarrely familiar online-game feeling.

Spiritual Furnaces could only be found in places where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth converged, or within ancient ruins.

Thus, their preciousness went without saying.

Across any profession, those who possessed Spiritual Furnaces were one in a thousand.

That was why Long Fan had been so delighted upon hearing about Spiritual Furnaces.

Yang Haoyu merely said calmly, "Xiaofan, although your master cannot leave you any other fine equipment, I do have a gift for you.

Only this is worthy of your monstrous cultivation talent."

As he spoke, Yang Haoyu struck his own chest with his hand.

Immediately afterward, a strange multicolored radiance emerged from his chest.

A tiny Starry Sky-patterned cauldron, with three legs and two handles and standing only an inch tall, appeared in Yang Haoyu's palm.

Those multicolored lights were emanating from that miraculous Starry Sky cauldron.

They pulsed gently, like sprites.

The moment Long Fan saw the small white furnace engraved with mysterious Starry Sky patterns, his gaze was instantly drawn to it.

Damn, what a beautiful Spiritual Furnace!

Well, this thing finally showed itself.

I thought I would be heading down the mountain just like this. I never expected Master to have thoughtfully prepared a Spiritual Furnace for me after all.

Holding up the dazzling little furnace, Yang Haoyu explained, "This is the Starry Sky Spiritual Furnace, the unprecedented seventy-fifth Spiritual Furnace."

It was not among the known spiritual furnaces; it was a parting gift his master had specially prepared for him."

At this, Long Fan's pale golden eyes lit up even brighter.

Yang Haoyu smiled and nodded, continuing to explain the spiritual furnace in his hand.

"I happened upon this in a Starry Sky Relic. I could sense the peculiar Power of the Stars contained within it.

The light within this Starry Sky Spiritual Furnace originates from the starry sky, yet it does not belong to this world, nor is it under the dominion of this world's God of Light.

Even I, who call myself a Starry Sky Knight and wield the laws of the stars, find it difficult to glimpse its true power."

As he spoke, he paused and looked at the somewhat impatient Long Fan.

"Perhaps this Starry Sky Spiritual Furnace was prepared for a rare genius like you, one seen only once in a thousand years.

Neither you nor I can yet comprehend the mysteries of this poorly documented Starry Sky Spiritual Furnace.

But one thing I can say for certain: the potential that can be unearthed from it in the future will be no less than that of the number one Reincarnation Spiritual Furnace!"

Holding the spiritual furnace, Yang Haoyu walked up to Long Fan.

"The greatest advantage of choosing this Starry Sky Spiritual Furnace as your first spiritual furnace is that it is an exceedingly rare attribute-less spiritual furnace.

It will not burden your body during use, nor will it affect your future fusion with other spiritual furnaces.

As for what other abilities it may evolve in the future, you can only explore that on your own."

Long Fan immediately clasped his fists and bowed, offering his thanks.

"Thank you, Master!"

Yang Haoyu nodded.

"The most basic requirement for fusing an initial spiritual furnace is two hundred spiritual power, the starting point of a third-tier profession.

You have clearly surpassed that several times over already.

So rather than wait for another day, I will help you fuse with it now."
