So far, Shui Miao had learned everything about setting up arrays and formations, but had never actually tried forging anything.
Forging wasn’t complicated, but it required skill and precise timing.
A refining furnace was an essential tool for forging magical treasures.
So far, Shui Miao has mastered the arrangement of formations and such, but he has never actually tried forging.
Forging isn’t particularly complicated, but it requires skill and precise control of heat.
The artifact refining furnace is essential for crafting magical treasures.
Of course, artifact refining furnaces also vary in quality. To forge a top-tier immortal treasure, you first need a top-tier furnace. To create a supreme magical treasure, a supreme furnace is indispensable.
In the memories Shui Miao inherited, there were some related to furnace forging.
But before forging his own furnace, Shui Miao wanted to study Bu Yi’s supreme furnace for reference.
Bu Yi brought Shui Miao into his magical treasure and summoned his artifact refining furnace.
Shui Miao carefully sensed the furnace and suddenly noticed a familiar purple energy circulating within it. The rest were just ordinary refining materials, but the purple energy was exceptionally dense.
Wait…
Seeing the hidden purple energy in Bu Yi’s furnace, Shui Miao felt as if he had suddenly grasped something profound.
From the moment Shui Miao began cultivating the energy of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements, the first energy he came into contact with was purple energy. He had always believed that purple energy was the energy of auspicious fortune—something that could bring good luck and smooth progress in all endeavors, embodying the saying “purple energy comes from the east.” But now, after cultivating to this stage and seeing the purple energy in the refining furnace, this belief began to waver.
Shui Miao suddenly felt that purple energy was not merely about luck—or perhaps luck was only a small part of it.
“Brother Bu Yi, what is this purple energy in your refining furnace? Do you know where it comes from?” Shui Miao wanted to hear Bu Yi’s perspective. After all, he was the top expert among the Dwarf Tribe, and if the Dwarf Tribe had survived to this day, they must have their own unique insights into such mysterious energies.
Bu Yi frowned. “Purple energy accumulates through the forging of magical treasures. Immortals call it the ‘spiritual embryo energy.’ With it, you can forge higher-quality treasures and even create tool spirits along with them. But if you ask about its origin, I do know that purple energy exists deep underground. There’s a legend among our Dwarf Tribe: originally, there weren’t so many planets in the universe. They were all created by a sage named Hong Meng. Legend says all planets are magical treasures, albeit discarded or semi-finished ones. Planets that can nurture life are semi-finished treasures. Of course, this is just a legend. Such a powerful sage is beyond imagination!”
Bu Yi’s words revealed to Shui Miao that all planets are magical treasures.
And purple energy is the spiritual embryo energy that condenses to form these treasures.
In other words, purple energy is the most mysterious energy.
Shui Miao’s thoughts raced, and he suddenly realized that while he couldn’t reach the core of a planet, his conceptual world had a planet, didn’t it? That planet had slowly formed through the mutual generation of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements in his conceptual world. With a mere thought, he could uncover its mysteries.
Immediately, Shui Miao sat down cross-legged and entered his conceptual world.
“Purple energy!”
“There really is purple energy!”
Shui Miao quickly sensed the energy at the core of his conceptual planet—a massive, incredibly dense cluster of purple energy, dozens of meters in diameter. This purple energy was miraculous, attracting the Yin-Yang and Five Elements energies to revolve around it slowly. As they revolved, the spirit stones stored in the conceptual world gradually decomposed, merging into the Yin-Yang and Five Elements energies and accumulating over time.
“I understand! So this is the secret of planets!”
“In fact, a planet itself is a magical treasure—one that can absorb spiritual energy from the universe and grow slowly.”
“No wonder Grandpa often said that ancient people found cultivation much easier and there were many immortals back then. It was because there were fewer people, and spiritual energy was abundant. Just breathing was enough to become an immortal, and animals could transform into monsters and spirits. So it’s all due to the lack of spiritual energy!”
“Humanity has developed to this point, extensively exploiting resources and misusing Earth’s spiritual energy. This has led to fewer plants, thinner and more chaotic Yin-Yang and Five Elements energies. If this continues, humans will have even less chance of becoming immortals. However, in the North and South Poles, those rarely visited places, the spiritual energy must be well-preserved. The frequent auroras there might actually be manifestations of spiritual energy!”
Shui Miao’s thoughts raced, connecting many ideas.
After a while, Shui Miao gathered his thoughts and drew a strand of purple energy from his conceptual planet, channeling it into his body to begin cultivating.
“Boom!”
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Because Shui Miao had drawn away the purple energy, a part of the conceptual planet’s surface collapsed, forming a massive depression. Waves of decay energy spread from the collapse, and many water sources gathered there, eventually forming a vast ocean on the planet’s surface.
Is this how planets evolve?
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he quickly focused on sensing the flow of the decay energy…
The decay energy merged into the planet’s Yin-Yang and Five Elements energies, inevitably polluting them. Some plants that absorbed this decay energy began to wither and die. Some tree people who breathed it in underwent drastic changes in temperament—some turned evil, and some even began killing their own kind. Death became unavoidable.
Could it really be like this?
“If this is the case, could Earth’s many oceans and terrifying depths be the result of cultivators stealing purple energy from its core?”
“Unbelievable! This is truly unbelievable!”
“Then, could it be that cultivators are responsible for planets being swallowed by black holes and once vibrant planets becoming lifeless?”
Shui Miao’s thoughts raced again, and he had to admit that these were terrifying realizations.
Shui Miao didn’t want to see his conceptual planet like this. He initially considered containing the decay energy, but suddenly, he became curious about whether such changes could bring about special transformations in his conceptual planet—such as the birth of unique life forms, animals, or even humans!
With this thought, Shui Miao abandoned the idea of removing the decay energy.
He then asked Bu Yi for refining materials and, using Bu Yi’s furnace, began forging a Time Pearl inside the Time Pagoda.
This was Shui Miao’s first time forging a magical treasure—his maiden work.
Bu Yi and Meng Sanniang guided him intently, watching as Shui Miao forged the treasure.
Under Shui Miao’s control, the furnace’s flames melted the materials into a liquid state, shifting and changing according to his will. Refining treasures was an extremely mentally taxing task, but after cultivating in the Time Pagoda for six thousand years, Shui Miao’s mental strength had reached an unimaginable level. Forging this time-related treasure was a piece of cake for him.
Shui Miao had already simulated the structure of the Time Pearl in his conceptual world, so now he worked with remarkable familiarity.
The liquid condensed into the shape of a pearl, and its internal components quickly took form.
Nurtured fully by the purple energy, the Time Pearl began to emit a dazzling light and an enticing magical aura.
“I’ll go fetch some dragon blood!”
Seeing the Time Pearl about to take shape, Bu Yi had an idea and remembered the large amount of dragon blood spilled on the ground outside from the injured evil dragon.
Wuchang Yidao was still battling the four Dragon Lords, and he remained as vigorous as ever. In contrast, all four Dragon Lords were wounded, and dragon blood was scattered everywhere for miles around.
Bu Yi quickly collected a substantial amount of dragon blood.
Shui Miao willed it and used the dragon blood for quenching!
“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle…”
Clouds of blood energy boiled, and the Time Pearl rapidly cooled in the dragon blood while absorbing its energy, slowly changing color!
The dragon blood was consumed quickly!
“Ha! Excellent!”
“Shui Miao, normally, dragon blood is only used for quenching. If it’s consumed quickly, it means your Time Pearl is nurturing a tool spirit! A treasure with a natural tool spirit is at least ten times more powerful than one without! Quick, let me go out and get more dragon blood!”
Bu Yi exclaimed excitedly. He had only forged a treasure with a natural tool spirit once—his own protective pearl.
“There’s no time!”
Seeing how quickly the dragon blood was being consumed, Shui Miao immediately left the Time Pagoda with the Time Pearl and emerged outside.
He placed the Time Pearl into a large pool of dragon blood nearby!
“Shui Miao, go back quickly! This peerless treasure might be stolen!”
Bu Yi felt a surge of anxiety, frustrated by Shui Miao’s recklessness.
“What is that?”
Suddenly noticing a brilliant blood light, Wuchang Yidao and the four Dragon Lords halted their battle.
“It’s a Time Pearl! Impossible! How could he have forged it?”
Sensing the forming energy of the Time Pearl, Wuchang Yidao was stunned.
“A top-tier immortal treasure with a natural tool spirit!”
“Big brother, should we seize it?”
“Nonsense! How can we not seize such a treasure?”
“All of you, shut up! Shui Miao is our ally. If he can forge one Time Pearl, he can forge ten. We must protect him and ensure that Wuchang demon doesn’t steal it!”
The four Dragon Lords swiftly teleported around Shui Miao, standing guard to protect him.
Wuchang Yidao stared fixedly at the Time Pearl before Shui Miao. After a surge of blood energy, the Time Pearl suddenly emitted a radiant rainbow light, stunningly beautiful!
“This is a supreme top-tier immortal treasure!”
Seeing the radiant rainbow light, Bu Yi grabbed Shui Miao’s arm and excitedly transmitted his thoughts: “Quick, quick! Form a blood bond with it! What are you waiting for? This is a peerless treasure!”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao immediately offered a drop of blood, preparing to bond with the Time Pearl…
“Hahahaha!”
Suddenly, a burst of unrestrained laughter echoed…
A flash of blue light, and the protective pearl vanished!
“Unexpected, truly unexpected! I, Hua Tianxiong, pretended to be injured, failed, and let you capture me. Not only did I uncover your secrets, but I also gained a supreme top-tier immortal treasure for free! What a profit, such a great profit! Shui Miao, I’m going to blood bond with it right in front of you! Hahahaha…”
Hua Tianxiong’s figure appeared mid-air, holding the Time Pearl. He laughed with unparalleled delight and arrogance.
In the memories he had acquired, Shui Miao had some knowledge of forging furnaces.
But before forging his own furnace, Shui Miao wanted to examine Bu Yi’s supreme-level furnace first.
Bu Yi placed Shui Miao inside a magical treasure, then summoned forth his refining furnace.
Shui Miao carefully examined the furnace, and suddenly noticed a familiar purple aura circulating inside it. The rest were just ordinary forging materials, but this purple aura was especially thick and powerful.
Wait a second…
Seeing the hidden purple aura within Bu Yi’s furnace, Shui Miao suddenly felt as if he had grasped something profound.
Since beginning his cultivation of yin-yang and the five elements, the first energy he had encountered was this purple aura. Shui Miao had always believed it to be auspicious energy, bringing good fortune and smooth success to those it touched, just like the saying “when purple clouds arise from the east, good fortune is on its way.” However, after all his cultivation, seeing this purple aura inside the refining furnace shook his previous belief.
Suddenly, Shui Miao felt that this purple aura wasn’t simply about luck, or rather, luck was just a small part of what the purple aura represented.
“Brother Bu Yi, what’s the story behind this purple aura in your furnace? Do you know where it comes from?” Shui Miao wanted to hear Bu Yi’s perspective, since he was the greatest expert among the dwarves. The dwarves must have their own unique understanding of such profound energies.
So far, Shui Miao has mastered the arrangement of formations and such, but he has never actually tried forging.
Forging isn’t complicated, but it requires skill and precise control of temperature.

Shui Miao’s thoughts raced, connecting many ideas.
After a while, he withdrew his focus and drew a strand of purple energy from his conceptual planet, channeling it into his body to begin cultivating.
“Boom!”
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Because Shui Miao had drawn out the purple energy, a part of the conceptual planet’s surface collapsed, forming a massive depression. Waves of decaying energy spread from the collapse, and water sources gathered in the depression, eventually forming a vast ocean on the planet’s surface!
Is this how planets evolve?
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he quickly focused on sensing the flow of the decaying energy…

Could it really be like this?
“If this is the case, could Earth’s numerous oceans and terrifying depths be due to cultivators stealing the purple energy from its core?”
“Unbelievable! This is truly unbelievable!”
“And what about the depths of the universe? Some planets being devoured by black holes, some once-living planets turning lifeless—could all of this be the work of cultivators?”
Shui Miao’s thoughts raced again, and he had to admit it was a terrifying line of thinking.
He didn’t want to see his conceptual planet suffer like this. Initially, he considered containing the decaying energy, but then he suddenly wanted to see if such changes could bring about something special—like the birth of unique life forms, animals, or even humans!
With this thought, Shui Miao abandoned the idea of containing the decaying energy.
Instead, he asked Bu Yi for forging materials and, using Bu Yi’s refining furnace, began forging a Time Pearl inside the Time Tower.
This was Shui Miao’s first time forging a magical treasure—his maiden work.
Bu Yi and Meng Sanniang guided him intently, watching as Shui Miao forged the treasure.
Under Shui Miao’s control, the furnace fire melted the materials into a liquid state, shifting and changing according to his will. Forging was an extremely mentally taxing task, but after cultivating for six thousand years in the Time Tower, Shui Miao’s mental strength had reached an unimaginable level. Forging this time-based treasure was a piece of cake for him.
Shui Miao had already simulated the structure of the Time Pearl in his conceptual world, so he worked with remarkable familiarity.
The liquid condensed into the shape of a pearl, and its internal components quickly took form.
Nurtured abundantly by the purple energy, the Time Pearl began to radiate a dazzling light and an alluring magical aura.
“I’ll go fetch some dragon blood!”
Seeing the Time Pearl nearing completion, Bu Yi had an idea and remembered the vast amounts of dragon blood spilled by the injured evil dragon outside.
Wuchang Yidao was still battling the four Dragon Lords, and he remained as fierce as ever, while the four Dragon Lords were all wounded. Dragon blood was scattered everywhere for miles around.
Bu Yi quickly collected a substantial amount of dragon blood.
Shui Miao willed it and used the dragon blood for quenching!
“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle…”
Columns of blood steam rose as the Time Pearl rapidly cooled in the dragon blood, simultaneously absorbing the energy within the blood and slowly changing color!
The dragon blood was consumed at an astonishing rate!
“Ha! Excellent!”
“Shui Miao, under normal circumstances, dragon blood is only used for quenching. If it’s consumed this quickly, it means your Time Pearl is nurturing a tool spirit! A treasure with a natural tool spirit is at least ten times more powerful than one without! Quick, let me go out and get more dragon blood!”
Bu Yi exclaimed excitedly. He had only forged a treasure with a natural tool spirit once—his own protective pearl.
“There’s no time!”
Seeing how quickly the dragon blood was being consumed, Shui Miao immediately left the Time Tower with the Time Pearl and emerged outside.
He placed the Time Pearl into a large pool of dragon blood not far away!
“Shui Miao, go back quickly! This peerless treasure might be stolen!”
Bu Yi felt a surge of anxiety, frustrated by Shui Miao’s recklessness.
“What is that?”
Noticing a sudden burst of bloody light, Wuchang Yidao and the four Dragon Lords halted their battle.
“It’s a Time Pearl! Impossible! How could he have forged it?”
Sensing the forming energy of the Time Pearl, Wuchang Yidao was stunned.
“A top-tier immortal treasure with a natural tool spirit!”
“Big brother, should we seize it?”
“Nonsense! How can we not seize such a treasure?”
“All of you, shut up! Shui Miao is our ally. If he can forge one Time Pearl, he can forge ten. We must protect him and ensure this Wuchang demon doesn’t steal it!”
The four Dragon Lords swiftly teleported around Shui Miao, standing guard to protect him.
Wuchang Yidao stared fixedly at the Time Pearl before Shui Miao. After the bloody light faded, the pearl suddenly emitted a radiant seven-colored glow, stunningly beautiful!
“This is a supreme top-tier immortal artifact!”
Upon witnessing the seven-colored radiance, Bu Yi seized Shui Miao’s arm and conveyed with exhilaration, “Hurry, hurry! Form a blood bond with it! What are you hesitating for? This is an unparalleled treasure!”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao immediately offered a drop of blood, preparing to blood-bond with the Time Pearl…
“Hahahaha!”
Suddenly, a wild laugh echoed through the air…
A flash of blue light, and the protective pearl vanished!
“I never expected this, truly never expected! I, Hua Tianxiong, pretended to be injured, failed, and let you capture me. Not only did I uncover your secrets, but I also gained a supreme top-tier immortal artifact for free! This is a win, a huge win! Shui Miao, I’m going to blood-bond with it right in front of you! Hahahaha…”
Hua Tianxiong’s figure appeared mid-air, holding the Time Pearl. He laughed with unparalleled delight, his face beaming with triumph.
What Bu Yi said told Shui Miao that all planets were actually magical treasures.
And this purple aura was the embryonic spirit energy that formed these treasures.
In other words, the purple aura was the most mysterious energy of all.
Shui Miao’s thoughts turned, and suddenly he remembered—though he couldn’t reach the core of real planets, didn’t he have a planet within his own realm of consciousness? That planet had been slowly formed through the interplay of yin-yang and the five elements within his mind. With but a thought, he could understand its profound mysteries.
Immediately, Shui Miao sat in meditation and entered his consciousness realm.
“Purple aura!”
“Sure enough, there’s purple aura!”
Shui Miao quickly sensed the energy at the core of his consciousness planet. There were massive clusters of thick purple aura, each cluster more than ten meters in diameter. This purple aura was incredibly wondrous—it attracted the yin-yang and five-element energies to revolve slowly around it as a core. As they revolved, stored spirit stones within his consciousness realm slowly decomposed, entering the yin-yang and five-element energies and gradually accumulating.
“I understand now! So this is the secret of planets!”
“In fact, a planet itself is also a magical treasure—it’s a treasure that can absorb cosmic spiritual energy and slowly grow stronger over time.”
“No wonder Grandpa used to often say that cultivation was much easier in ancient times, and there were many more immortals. Back then, there were few people, and spiritual energy was abundant. Just breathing the air could make humans become immortals, and animals could transform into demons and spirits. It must have been because spiritual energy was so plentiful back then!”
“Humanity has developed over time, extensively exploiting resources and abusing Earth’s spiritual energy. This has caused plants to diminish and the yin-yang and five-element energies to become increasingly thin and chaotic. If this continues, humans will become even more distant from immortality. However, in places like the South and North Poles, where few people tread, spiritual energy must be well preserved. The auroras there might even be manifestations of spiritual energy!”
Shui Miao’s thoughts roamed far and wide.
Soon after, he withdrew his consciousness and drew a stream of purple aura from his planet, injecting it into his body to begin cultivation.
“Boom!”
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
As Shui Miao drew away the purple aura, a section of his consciousness planet’s surface collapsed, forming a massive depression. From this collapse, a stream of corrupt energy spread outward. Many water sources gathered at the collapsed area, forming a vast ocean on the planet’s surface!
Could this be the process of planetary evolution?
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he quickly focused on the flow of this corrupt energy…
The corrupt energy was absorbed into the yin-yang and five-element energies of the planet, inevitably polluting them. Plants that inhaled this corrupt energy began to yellow and die. Tree people who inhaled it underwent drastic changes—some turned evil, others even began killing their own kind, leading inevitably to death.
Could it really be this way?
“If this is the case, then the vast oceans and enormous depressions on Earth must be because cultivators have stolen the purple aura from Earth’s core?”
“Incredible! Absolutely incredible!”
“And those planets deep in the cosmos that are swallowed by black holes or become lifeless—could they all be the result of cultivators’ actions?”
Shui Miao’s thoughts raced again, and he couldn’t help but admit—this was a terrifying possibility.
Not wanting to see his consciousness planet in such a state, Shui Miao originally intended to absorb the corrupt energy, but suddenly he became curious—would such changes bring about some special transformation to his consciousness planet? Perhaps even give rise to unique life forms, animals, or even humans!
With this thought, he abandoned the idea of removing the corrupt energy.
Then Shui Miao asked Bu Yi for forging materials and, using Bu Yi’s refining furnace, began forging the Time Law Pearl inside the Time Tower.
This was Shui Miao’s first time forging a magical treasure—it would be his debut creation.
Bu Yi and Meng San Niang stood beside him, fully guiding him as he forged the treasure.
Under Shui Miao’s magical control, the furnace fire melted the materials into liquid form. As Shui Miao directed his will, the liquid transformed accordingly. Forging was an extremely mentally taxing task, but after six thousand years of cultivation inside the Time Tower, Shui Miao’s spiritual power had reached an unfathomable level. Thus, forging this Time Magical Treasure was like child’s play to him.
Shui Miao had already simulated the structure of the Time Law Pearl within his consciousness realm beforehand, so now that he was actually forging it, he worked with great proficiency.
The liquid solidified into the shape of a pearl, and its various internal components quickly formed.
Under the nourishment of the purple aura, the Time Law Pearl emitted dazzling light and an alluring magical power.
“I’ll go get some dragon blood!”
Seeing the Time Law Pearl nearing completion, Bu Yi suddenly thought of the pools of dragon blood spilled by the wounded dragon outside.
Wu Chang Yi Dao was still battling the four Dragon Lords, yet he remained full of vigor, while the four Dragon Lords were all wounded. Within a radius of several miles, dragon blood was splattered everywhere.
Bu Yi quickly collected a large amount of dragon blood.
With a thought, Shui Miao used the dragon blood to temper the pearl!
“Hisssssss…”
A surge of blood energy boiled, and the Time Law Pearl rapidly cooled in the dragon blood, simultaneously absorbing the blood’s essence and slowly changing color!
The dragon blood was consumed quickly!
“Haha! This is great!”
“Shui Miao, normally dragon blood is only used for tempering. If it’s consumed quickly, it means your Time Law Pearl is nurturing a treasure spirit. A treasure with a natural-born spirit can be more than ten times more powerful than one without! Quick, let me go get more dragon blood!”
Bu Yi shouted excitedly. He had only ever forged one treasure with a natural-born spirit before—his own protective pearl.
“We don’t have time!”
Seeing how quickly the dragon blood was being consumed, Shui Miao immediately took the Time Law Pearl and left the Time Tower, heading outside.
He placed the pearl into a nearby large pool of dragon blood!
“Shui Miao, quickly come back! Someone might steal this peerless treasure!”
Bu Yi grew anxious, cursing Shui Miao’s recklessness.
“What is that?”
Suddenly, a surge of blood light appeared, and Wu Chang Yi Dao and the four Dragon Lords stopped fighting.
“It’s the Time Law Pearl! Impossible! Impossible! How could he forge it?”
Feeling the aura of the Time Law Pearl forming, Wu Chang Yi Dao was shocked.
“A supreme-grade immortal treasure with a natural-born spirit!”
“Brother, should we try to seize it?”
“Fool! Of course we should seize such a treasure!”
“Silence! Shui Miao is our ally. If he can forge one Time Law Pearl, he can forge ten! We must protect him at all costs and prevent this evil ghost from stealing it!”
The four Dragon Lords quickly moved to surround Shui Miao, fully alert and ready to defend him.
Wu Chang Yi Dao stared intently at the Time Law Pearl before Shui Miao. After a surge of blood energy, the pearl suddenly emitted a seven-colored rainbow glow, dazzlingly beautiful.
“This is a supreme-grade immortal artifact!”
Seeing the seven-colored radiance, Bu Yi tightly gripped Shui Miao’s arm and urgently telepathically urged, “Quick! Quick! Drop your blood on it to claim ownership! This is a peerless treasure!”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao immediately summoned a drop of his own blood, ready to perform the blood-binding ritual on the Time Law Pearl…
“Hahahahaha!”
Suddenly, a wild laughter rang out…
A streak of green light flashed, and the protective pearl vanished!
“Unexpected! Truly unexpected! I, Hua Tianxiong, pretended to be injured and captured, yet not only did I uncover your secrets, I also gained a supreme-grade immortal treasure for free. What a bargain! What an incredible bargain! Shui Miao, I’m going to perform the blood-binding ritual right in front of you! Hahahahaha…”
Hua Tianxiong’s figure appeared in midair, holding the Time Law Pearl, his face beaming with pride and triumph.
