Chapter 4, Detailed Explanation of the Tools
When Ying Chong emerged from that pot, he found that the book "Detailed Explanation of Tool Making" had indeed appeared in his hands. His entire body felt slightly sore. This should be the aftereffects of the training, combined with the pain from his injuries, making him feel exceptionally uncomfortable
Ying Chong secretly clicked his tongue, surprised that the effects of training in the Spirit Refining Pot could actually be reflected in his physical body. Although his body was fatigued at that moment, his spirit was, on the contrary, more vigorous. Spirit refining, spirit refining, could it be that this Sun and Moon Spirit Refining Pot also has an effect on a person's spirit?
Gongshu Ban, despite his disability and inability to master martial arts and celestial techniques, was still able to wield the power of objects to slay the crocodile dragon. This demonstrates that craftsmanship can reach the divine and can stand shoulder to shoulder with the heavenly position
A sharp and clear reprimand rang out, and Ying Chong looked over in surprise towards the corner where a young girl stood. He noticed that she was tightly pursing her lips, her expression extremely serious: "Your martial vein has been severed, and you cannot receive the true teachings of the Evil Emperor. Therefore, you cannot use this Overlord Spear, or else you will die"
This is merely a distance of ten zhang, clearly visible, and there is nothing worth gazing at; he is actually hesitating
In two months, it will be the day for the family heirloom 'Star Picking' divine armor to choose its master. Ying Chong felt that his hopes were slim, but if he could maintain his cultivation at the fourth level of 'Martial Master', he still had a glimmer of possibility this time.
The former is a foundational martial arts technique passed down from the ancestors of the Wuyang Ying clan, which reportedly enhances the speed of internal energy refinement by over 40% compared to ordinary Qi cultivation methods. This technique is the cornerstone of the Wuyang Ying clan's establishment in the Great Qin, allowing them to become a top-tier noble family. The Thirty-Six Styles of the Gale and Storm Spear, on the other hand, was created by Ying Chong's father and serves as the foundation of spear techniques. In the past, Duke An of the State, Ying Shentong, defeated twelve powerful figures of the Tianwei rank from the Great Wei Dynasty using only this self-created foundational spear technique. Unfortunately, Ying Chong currently does not possess a spear, and can only perform some virtual forms, resulting in a less effective training outcome.

In recent days, he has been injured and cannot practice. If he can cultivate within this Spirit Cauldron, he would be able to complete all his tasks for the day, which would save him a great deal of trouble, allowing him to have more time for leisure in the future
In Ying Chong's view, even if that divine-grade ink armor were to exhaust all of his lifespan and vitality within a few years, it would still be preferable to allowing this armor to fall into the hands of his uncle, Ying Shiji.
After the incantation was completed, Ying Chong could not immediately discern whether the passage of time within the Spirit Refining Cauldron had accelerated. Subsequently, he diligently practiced according to the Ying family's ancestral technique for cultivating Qi and the Thirty-Six Styles of the Gale and Storm Spear.
This is a placeholder text.
The mastery of craftsmanship is divine, and it can also rival the celestial positions. Ying Chong does not seek to surpass the existence of the celestial positions like Gongshu, using the power of objects. He is merely content with possessing the strength to contend with the celestial positions.
The true transmission of the Evil Emperor will be in your hands in eight days. However, my father said that if you feel bored while recuperating in bed, you may take this book out to read in advance, which will help you lay a foundation.
However, upon being addressed by the young girl, he found himself feeling even more curious. Nevertheless, his rationality remained intact, and ultimately, the thought of giving it a try was dispelled and smoothed over.
The True Transmission of the Evil Emperor? The Overlord Spear? This Overlord Spear can only be wielded by those with intact martial veins? Then can the True Transmission of the Evil Emperor restore oneself to their original state? Are the words recorded on this stone tablet true or false? In a few days, will I be able to obtain the True Transmission of the Evil Emperor?
This is the second ability that piqued his curiosity after the time acceleration capability of the Sun and Moon Refining Divine Pot, despite the fact that his martial veins had been severed, and his prospects in martial arts had been completely cut off
He had heard of the deeds of the former. The so-called 'Crocodile Dragon' was a formidable demon that once ravaged the southern Great Chu Kingdom, said to possess astonishing demonic power, comparable to that of martial arts masters at the level of authority and heaven.
However, after reading this sentence today, Ying Chong became a bit more patient
The King of An once left a message in the bamboo slips, stating that the body he possesses within the Spirit Refining Cauldron is like the inside and outside of a mirror, corresponding to his physical body outside. The interior of the Spirit Refining Cauldron represents the inside of the mirror, while the exterior of the cauldron represents the external entity. The achievements he cultivates in the 'mirror inside' can be reflected onto his true self outside the Spirit Refining Cauldron, just as in regular practice.
With this additional pot, it is equivalent to him gaining half a day's time every day, and it is a half day filled with energy. While it is certainly convenient during self-cultivation, the surplus energy has nowhere to be directed. Strangely, none of his friends, whether they are fox friends or dog friends, seem to have been stopped by his grandfather, as not a single one has come to visit him.
Ying Chong casually glanced at the cover, his eyes falling on the four seal characters "Detailed Explanation of Tools"
This Spirit Refining Pot and that Overlord Spear have numerous functions. Ying Chong wanted to give it a try, yet still had some doubts. However, in the end, Ying Chong could no longer contain himself and first attempted to recite a few incantations as described in the bamboo slips.
This "Prince Ying Chong" might indeed be the person who understands him the best. If it were expressed in different words, he might have regarded this book "Detailed Explanation of Tools" merely as a source of entertainment, losing interest after reading just a page or two
Do not touch
Originally, Ying Chong had no interest in that book titled "Detailed Explanation of Instrument Making"; however, after a whole day of boredom, he finally picked it up to take a look
With a faint laugh, Ying Chong took the item in his hand and then cautiously asked, "Your name is Yue'er, right? If I want to bring something in, what should I do?"
Ying Chong knew that in this marquis's residence, apart from the group of guards under Zhang Yi, the rest were either personnel appointed by his grandfather Ying Ding or were bought off by his uncle, making them unreliable. However, this offering official was not likely to deceive him in this regard
Since the girl in the corner is a humanoid puppet, there will be no need for her to eat, drink, or relieve herself, so he need not worry about that. However, since he has already entered this Sun and Moon Refining God Cauldron, Ying Chong is not in a hurry to exit.
Before coming in today, he made those preparations specifically to summon the Qi practitioners from the Duke's residence to inquire about the matter. Upon learning that this incantation was indeed without issue, it was revealed to be merely the most fundamental technique of awakening spirits, a spell used by the practitioners of the Xuanmen sect to activate spiritual formations and talismans.
The young girl did not respond, merely looking over with a blank expression. Ying Chong suddenly felt foolish; he already knew how he should carry items in and out of the Sun and Moon Refining Divine Cauldron.
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Ying Chong saw the young girl handing over a book to him
As for the conspiracy of the Prince An, Ying Chong is not very concerned about it now. He has come to realize that with the methods displayed by that person, taking his life would be as easy as pie. If that person truly intends to scheme against him, he is most likely unable to defend himself. It is better to let things take their course and see what unfolds. If that person indeed harbors malicious intent, he will surely reveal some clues. Conversely, if he continues to resist, it may provoke that person, leading to a situation where patience is exhausted and both sides suffer. Therefore, it is better to let things take their course and see what unfolds. If that person indeed harbors malicious intent, he will surely reveal some clues. Conversely, if he continues to resist, it may provoke that person, leading to a situation where patience is exhausted and both sides suffer. Thus, it should be harmless for him to try it out first.
Indeed, it is like the inside and outside of a mirror, with even the physical strength being quite similar. Moreover, within that vessel, it is not affected by its original body—outside of that vessel, it is still lying in bed recuperating from an injury.
Ying Chong raised his eyebrows, and the brilliance in his eyes became even more intense. In fact, he had no intention of making contact; it was merely because the bamboo slip had specifically mentioned such a phrase. Ying Chong felt that merely using the ability of time acceleration was already too risky, and without fully understanding what this Overlord Spear was, how could he dare to touch it lightly
Moreover, what astonished him even more was that he had been practicing diligently inside that pot for more than three hours. Yet now, upon coming out, he found that it was still not noon; only a little over a quarter of an hour had passed. Indeed, as stated in the bamboo slips, after activating the ability to accelerate time, one hour inside the pot could equate to half a day in the outside world
The young girl still showed no intention of acknowledging him, and Ying Chong could not be bothered to seek out further embarrassment, so he continued to survey his surroundings.
His martial veins have been severed, and his martial path has come to an end. Although he has been self-destructive and reckless in recent years, deep down, he still harbors a sense of unwillingness.
For the next two days, Ying Chong remained in bed to recuperate from his injuries. Each day, he would spend several hours practicing martial arts in that spirit pot. However, as predicted by Prince An, he increasingly felt bored.
Exactly three hours later, Ying Chong finally came to a stop. If he were outside the Spirit Refining Cauldron, he would undoubtedly be panting and drenched in sweat. However, within this cauldron, aside from his physical exhaustion, there were no other reactions to speak of.
Upon opening this "Detailed Explanation of Instruments," Ying Chong was moved by the second sentence at the beginning, completely losing any sense of leisure, and his expression took on a more serious and earnest demeanor
Ying Chong pondered in this manner, and his attention turned once again to the Overlord Spear. According to what King An had described, within this broken spear resided the remnants of the martial will of ninety-nine powerful beings at the Celestial level. He could expend 'Mo Stone' to summon the soul intent within the spear, thereby honing his own martial path
However, this great demon was indeed slain by Gongshu Ban using the power of his artifacts. It is rumored to be an unnamed divine weapon, which even the crocodile dragon could not withstand the force of a single strike from this object
