Hearing the phantom's words, Lu Feng's eyes filled with disbelief.
If what it said was true, then this Heaven Nurturing Rare Essence was practically a heaven-defying existence, one capable of overturning all understanding!
If a tool that had barely reached the Earth Grade level were placed before him, then relying solely on Fire Wood Azure Bloom, Lu Feng could at most improve it within the Earth Grade. It would be utterly impossible to elevate its quality to the Heaven Grade. Even with profound qi aiding it, constrained by the limits of its own material quality, success was not guaranteed.

Though both were improvements, Fire Wood Azure Bloom clearly leaned more toward the path of "purging impurities and developing one's ultimate potential," while the Heaven Nurturing Rare Essence altered the foundational quality altogether. They were entirely different matters.
Thinking of how the Heaven Nurturing Rare Essence had inexplicably devoured so many rare refined iron materials before, now that Lu Feng knew it could improve the quality of tools, even if it suddenly performed a feat like turning stone into gold, he would find it perfectly reasonable and would no longer be too surprised.

If the Heaven Nurturing Rare Essence altered the foundation first, and then Fire Wood Azure Bloom and profound qi enhanced it further, the resulting change to a tool could truly
