Liang Zhaohuang took a jade box from his Storage Bag, undid the Seal on it, and opened it to reveal a cluster of bright yellow flames within.
This was a second-order spiritual fire, one of the spoils he had obtained while fighting his way through numerous Demon Race islands in the Pearl Island Chain sea region.
Of course, his gains had included third-order spiritual fires as well, but the Demon Refining Furnace in his possession was only at the spirit artifact level and could only make use of second-order spiritual fire. If he used third-order spiritual fire, he feared it would burn this spirit artifact, the Demon Refining Furnace, apart.
Liang Zhaohuang had long since refined and mastered the Demon Refining Furnace. At this moment, he easily sent the spiritual fire seed into the furnace, then took out some tree demon branches and leaves he had gathered earlier and fed them into it. The second-order spiritual fire immediately flared up, its flames spreading throughout the entire Demon Refining Furnace.
Once the heat was right, Liang Zhaohuang sent a first-order Blood Crystal into the Demon Refining Furnace and began tempering it, observing the entire process.
The first-order Blood Crystal underwent tempering within the Demon Refining Furnace, its bloody color gradually fading away and turning into gold.
In only a short while, a Blood Crystal transformed into a Golden Crystal, golden light flowing within it like molten gold, like warm sunlight.
Liang Zhaohuang removed the Golden Crystal formed through tempering and activated his Five Elements Dharma Eye, Heavenly Eye Insight, spiritual power, Spiritual Sense, and every other means at his disposal to examine it.
In the end, he confirmed that the Golden Crystal formed after the Blood Crystal had been tempered in the Demon Refining Furnace retained only the power of blood
