Chapter 196 Big Furnace

After learning the first-grade molten fire array, the next step is to officially draw on the refining furnace.

The next day, Elder Yu notified Mo Hua that the refining furnace had been delivered.

A large refining furnace several feet high stood majestically in the yard.

It was simple in form, standing on three legs, with a roof like an eaves, a belly as big as a bowl, and cloud patterns engraved all over the body. It was cast in fine iron and had a deep black and gray luster.

Mo Hua looked up at the refining furnace and couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

Mo Hua, who was not very big at the age of ten, looked even smaller when standing in front of the refining furnace.

Not only Mo Hua was surprised, but Master Chen beside him was also shocked.

He walked around the refining furnace, looking left and right, wanting to reach out and touch it, but he didn't dare, as if the refining furnace was just an illusion he imagined, and it would disappear in an instant if he touched it with his hand.

He had never seen such a large refining furnace in his life.

When he was young, he rented someone else's refining furnace to study. It was small and crude, and the firepower was not strong. It took half a day to burn a piece of iron rod. It was time-consuming and laborious, and he couldn't refine a spiritual weapon.

Later, he worked as a refiner's assistant, refining day and night. After saving spiritual stones for a long time, he bought his own refining furnace. With a refining furnace, he was qualified to open his own refining business.

His refining furnace was not big, and his refining business was also small, but he was already satisfied.

So many refiners may have spent their whole lives without having their own refining furnace, let alone opening a refining business.

He also went to other large refining businesses to learn and saw the real first-grade refining furnace. The huge refining furnace and the blazing flames in the furnace made him envious.

But those were other people's, and had nothing to do with him. He could only look at them, and he might not even be able to use a first-grade refining furnace to refine a spiritual weapon in his lifetime.

However, now, a brand new and intact refining furnace is in front of him.

This is a real first-grade refining furnace, and it is bigger than all the first-grade refining furnaces he has seen before.

And he can use this refining furnace to refine spiritual tools!

Master Chen felt like he was dreaming just thinking about it, and he still couldn't believe it.

Elder Yu was a little proud, "How is it, this refining furnace is big enough."

Mo Hua nodded and said slowly: "This one is too big."

"Didn't you ask me to make a refining furnace, the bigger the better?"

"That's what I said, but this one is a bit too big..." Mo Hua was shocked, and then asked:

"Are all first-grade refining furnaces this big?"

"No, this one is very big, so it can't be sold." Elder Yu replied.

Mo Hua was stunned, "Can't sell it?"

"Yes, it's big and useless, it can't be sold." Elder Yu looked at the refining furnace in front of him and said, "Generally, the refining furnaces used by small refining shops are relatively small. Even if medium and large refining shops use a first-grade refining furnace, they don't need to use such a large one."

"If the refining furnace is large, it will be difficult to draw the formation inside, and it will cost a lot of materials and sell at a high price. If we hadn't dug a spiritual mine and were rich, we wouldn't be able to afford it."

"Since it can't be sold, why did they build such a large refining furnace?" Mo Hua asked in confusion.

"If you don't build it, how do you know it can't be sold?" Elder Yu patted the refining furnace, "And now it's sold, we bought it!"

Mo Hua couldn't refute it for a while.

Elder Yu laughed again, "We got a bargain. This refining furnace has been sitting there for a few years and nobody wants it. It just gave me an excuse to lower the price."

Mo Hua was secretly surprised. If Elder Yu thought it was "ruthless", how much more ruthless would the price be...

"Okay, I've got the refining furnace. It's up to you to do it next." Elder Yu patted Mo Hua's shoulder.

"Okay, don't worry!"

Mo Hua asked someone to disassemble the refining furnace first, and then measured the size and specifications. Mo Hua wrote them down on paper one by one, and then began to consider designing the formation.

Such a large refining furnace just allowed Mo Hua to try to draw a first-grade molten fire formation.

But there are many types of formations that include the first-grade molten fire formation, and the specifications and shapes of the refining furnaces are also very different, so Mo Hua needs to consider carefully which formation to use, which formation to build, and how to draw the formation on the refining furnace.

After much selection, Mo Hua finally chose a formation called "First-class Molten Fire Controlling Spiritual Re-array", which he intended to use on this large first-class refining furnace.

The first-class Molten Fire Controlling Spiritual Re-array is composed of the basic five-element formation pivot structure, which maintains two first-class Molten Fire formations, one Spirit Gathering Formation, one Cold Air Formation, and one Metal and Stone Formation.

There is a total of one formation pivot and five formations, including two first-class formations!

This is the most difficult formation that Mo Hua has ever drawn. It consumes a huge amount of spiritual consciousness and requires an astonishing spiritual consciousness strength.

Mo Hua has made up his mind. If he can learn it, he will draw this set of complex formations. If he can't learn it, he will cut corners and save a first-class Molten Fire Formation, so that the difficulty of the entire complex formation will be reduced a lot.

However, this is a compromise and a bottom-line method.

If possible, Mo Hua still wants to draw this set of complex formations.

After all, if you miss this opportunity, you will miss it. It is not certain that someone will spend a lot of money to buy such a large first-grade refining furnace for Mo Hua to practice drawing array formations next time.

Mo Hua still cherishes the opportunity to apply what he has learned and practice array formations.

Mo Hua spent some time to preliminarily design the array diagram based on the specifications and dimensions of the refining furnace, the layout of the inner wall, and the basic array required for the first-grade molten fire control spirit complex array.

Mo Hua checked it and felt that there were no omissions. He had considered everything he should consider - or, in other words, he had considered everything he could consider.

Then Mo Hua showed this array diagram to Mr. Zhuang.

Mr. Zhuang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, thinking that the things his disciple asked were more and more outrageous.

He was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, but he asked for advice on a complex array containing two first-grade array formations, and he had adjusted it himself according to the refining furnace.

Although it is not perfect, the basic things have been taken into consideration, and it can still be used.

Mr. Zhuang took a look and randomly pointed at a few places, "Think about these places again. If you draw like this, the flow of spiritual power will be blocked, and more spiritual stones will be consumed when refining the weapon."

Mo Hua nodded quickly.

Spiritual stones are hard to come by, so they must not be wasted!

"Also, the role of the array hub here is not just to connect single arrays to build a complex array, but to play the role of opening and closing to control the spirit, and to control the amount of spiritual power transmitted by the array hub to adjust the size of the furnace for refining. When you draw, experience it carefully." Mr. Zhuang gave another instruction.

"Okay, sir."

Mo Hua asked a few more questions, and Mr. Zhuang answered them one by one.

After Mo Hua finished asking the questions, he stood up to say goodbye, and suddenly remembered another question. He asked humbly: "Sir, do I have the strength of a first-grade array master now?"

Mr. Zhuang looked at him silently and said, "Yes."

You have already started to draw a double first-grade array. If there is no first-grade, there will not be many cultivators in the world of cultivation who can be called first-grade array masters.

Mr. Zhuang said silently in his heart.

Mo Hua asked again: "Then should I go to the Taoist Court to determine the grade?"

Mr. Zhuang was silent. He pondered for a long time before saying: "Don't be in a hurry. Becoming famous at a young age may not be a good thing. You still have a lot to learn. Let's settle down first."
