Continuous Failures
Ten days later.
A red inferno distorted the air. The golden furnace spun; the interior was bright. Yang Tian, looking fatigued from ten days straight of fusing divine materials, sat in the air. Star rivers manifested and disappeared. The red liquid was bloodthirsty. The three materials were done. The glowing heaven restoration divine stone stopped the inferno, but half of it had melted already.
Yang Tian wondered why Heaven Restoration Divine Furnace shattered when he only had a bit of the stone. The nightmare dragon was unable to explain the phenomenon. He planned to find the cauldron’s shattered heaven restoration stone once he produced the furnace.
Yang Tian smiled and took a break.
***
Five days later.
Yang Tian resembled god soaring through the sky with a smile on his pale face. The furnace glowed five different colours. Divine rainbows sprayed out. He swung his hand through the air. The three divine material’s liquid forms rushed into the pentachrome energy and fought for space once they made contact. He commanded the furnace to melt them. An invisible hand appeared inside the furnace and squashed the liquid together. A golden hammer appeared and loudly hammered the divine material’s essence. The Lightning and Flame Divine Dragon sprayed Celestial Flames at the materials.
If it was some other material that went awry during the process, the entire furnace of materials might be ruined.
The divine stone absorbed the three materials. Yang Tian manipulated the gradually-forming cauldron to resemble the initial big phantasmal cauldron. He hammered them with two hammers to alter their shape. He burned through lots of Divine Soul energy over the course of a day, yet remained smiling.
The furnace was dented. It rumbled. Divine power rampaged. It was almost done. Once the last hammer came down, the cauldron vibrated and power poured out. Yang Tian shouted, “I did it!”
The walls of the furnace were dented. The divine power amplified. The sides glowed. Yang Tian wiped his smile off his face. The energy was excessive. The cauldron began to crack. He summoned Star Scroll to contain the cauldron, but the cauldron continued cracking. Soon enough, it exploded, blasting Star Scroll with a heavy-impact shockwave. Even he was sent flying. He suffered internal injuries. He coughed blood from his mouth. His mouth twitched. He clenched his fists and cursed, “Damn it. Why did I fail?! The method was right!”
Yang Tian recomposed himself. His Lightning Flame Divine Dragon sprayed flames at the divine stone liquid. He consumed a pill. He sat under the vitality divine tree to recover his qi and blood. The soul nourishment tree transferred Soul Qi over to recover his Divine Soul. He was as good as new half a day later. He resumed the task, but it exploded again!
Yang Tian failed four times over the course of five days. It was despairing. He clenched his fists and asked the nightmare dragon for advice, only to be told it was all dependent on his luck. He sighed. “At the last moment, I think there is some sort of mysterious energy spawns inside the cauldron. The cauldron cannot contain it, leading to it exploding.”
The dragon chuckled. “Try an alternative approach.”
Thrilled, Yang Tian thought, Since the cauldron couldn’t contain it, I just need to make it so it can contain it.
Yang Tian took out a golden sheet that rumbled: Dao Scripture. He wondered if carding the scripture on the face of the cauldron would work. Either way, he resolved to make the most of his remaining time.
