Although he was filled with confusion.
Once the three objects had stabilized within the Dao Body Furnace, the tremulous humming that had kept battering Xu Taiping's mind finally fell completely silent.
Xu Taiping then carefully probed them again with his mind.
To his relief, both the black sphere formed from blightbone power and the Dragon Pearl and Golden Chalice were still being slowly refined within the furnace's flames.
Although the process was extremely slow.
They were still being refined, after all.
Xu Taiping even sensed signs that dragon essence was finally about to seep out of the Dragon Pearl, which the furnace had been refining for so long.
Although he already had more than a dozen strands of dragon origin power stored within him, they had all been refined long ago.
After he had refined away more than half the Dragon Pearl, he had never managed to extract any more dragon origin power.
But something puzzled Xu Taiping.
Just as he sensed the dragon origin power about to seep from the surface of the Dragon Pearl, some kind of power also seemed about to emerge from the Blight Pearl opposite it, which had formed from blightbone power.
Yet, perhaps because it was too faint, when Xu Taiping tried to sense it again, that feeling of spiritual power about to spill out suddenly vanished.
Xu Taiping thus murmured inwardly:
Was it an illusion?
Just as he was thinking this, Xiahou You's somewhat anxious voice suddenly rang out in his mind:
"Young Master Taiping! The Blightbones are closing in from all sides! We need to leave this place first!"
"If you can hear me, keep your mind still for now. Don't use your magic power or divine soul power."
"Third Uncle is using his divine ability to take us away!"
