  In the underground secret room, Wei Ziming and his grandfather Wei Yongde stared at each other with wide eyes, their faces filled with shock as they gazed out at the dark cave in front of them, swallowing hard.

  "Zi Ming, this cave that was dug out by the 'Gua Zhuo furnace', just how deep is it?" Grandfather Wei Yongde spat out a mouthful of cold air before speaking.

  "Ah! I feel that the 'Toad Furnace' is a hundred feet away from me, and this cave should be a hundred feet deep." Wei Ziming heard the words, closed his eyes, carefully sensed for a moment, and then spoke.

  "Hundred meters? This is the depths of the earth! With the fifth layer of cultivation, activating the 'Toad Furnace' to create a cave like this, it's indeed incredibly powerful. If his cultivation were to reach the tenth layer and he were to activate it again, I wonder how much destruction it would cause." Grandfather Wei Yongde sighed emotionally.

  "The noise just now was so loud, I don't know if this cave will collapse or not. Can Ziming find a way to get the 'toad stove' back? If there's no way, let's wait for one or two days and dig it out! Don't go into the cave to take risks anymore." Grandfather Wei Yongde looked at the walls around him, which were covered with dense cracks, and looked slightly uneasy at the cave in front of him, then spoke up.

  "There's a way! I'll get it back right now!" Wei Ziming nodded slightly upon hearing this, then closed his eyes and began to communicate with the 'Toad Furnace'.

  "Bang bang bang ~~" After a moment, in the pitch-black cave, there came out rhythmic light sounds, and two red lights flickered from far to near in the darkness.

  Only a palm-sized iron toad was seen, mechanically jumping in the direction of Wei Ziming. The distance and amplitude of the jump were not large, just like an ordinary toad jumping, the only difference is that there was a mechanical feeling, less lively.

  "Zi Ming, has the 'iron toad stove' exhausted its internal energy just now?" Grandfather Wei Yongde looked at the iron toad that appeared before his eyes, sighed again, and then returned to the topic.

  "Ah! Alright!" Although Wei Ziming had only consumed a tenth of his internal energy by activating the 'Toad Furnace', when he saw the walls around him were full of cracks and the dark cave in front of him, Wei Ziming naturally acknowledged that his internal energy was already depleted.

  "Alright! Now we'll use the 'Toad Furnace' to refine the Ling Flower into a Dan medicine! I'll infuse my internal energy, since the Toad Furnace has already acknowledged its master, it will be controlled from the side and try to conserve my internal energy." Grandfather Wei Yongde revealed an expression that indeed proved this, then continued.

  "Alright!" Since he had already acknowledged his master, Wei Ziming now knew the detailed information about the 'Toad Furnace'.

  At the same time, Grandfather Wei Yongde poured a stream of internal energy into the 'Toad Stove', and with the cooperation of Wei Ziming, the iron toad the size of a palm suddenly swelled up. In an instant, it had transformed into an iron toad the size of a stove, and at the same time, the thick toad mouth also opened wide.

  At this time, Grandfather Wei Yongde started to get busy, and he continuously took out dozens of old medicines that were over a hundred years old, one by one throwing them into the frog's mouth.

  Finally, Grandfather Wei Yongde opened the jade box containing the Ling flower, took out the crystal-like Ling flower and gently placed it in the toad's mouth. Then, under Wei Ziming's control, the toad's mouth closed.

  Then Grandfather Wei Yongde's palm pressed on the back of the iron toad, and his thick inner energy was suddenly poured into the 'toad furnace'.

  With the support of internal energy, the entire surface of the iron toad flashed with complex and disorderly red lines. Faintly visible, the internal energy infused by Wei Yongde was circulating within these complex lines, just like blood flowing through blood vessels in the human body.

  Because this 'Toad Stove' has been recognized, Wei Ziming can clearly feel the situation in the 'Toad Stove', so when Grandfather Wei Yongde was pouring in his inner energy, Wei Ziming sat down on the spot.

  This 'toad furnace' can refine elixirs on its own, such a wonder, Wei Ziming naturally wants to study it carefully, who knows what unexpected gains he might obtain.

  However, when Wei Ziming's consciousness infiltrated the 'Toad Furnace', he saw incredibly complex lines operating inside, with a complexity comparable to the stars in the sky. Just as one can see but not know how many stars there are in the universe, nor understand the trajectory of the infinite stars in the boundless sky.

  Wei Ziming had a feeling of reading the heavenly book, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't understand it. The only thing he could see and feel was that in the internal space of the iron toad, crystal linghua and dozens of hundred-year-old medicines were suspended in mid-air by some subtle force, and at the same time, he felt the temperature of the internal space of the iron toad, which continued to rise with the passage of time.

  In the end, Wei Ziming gained nothing and felt slightly disappointed. He didn't investigate the iron toad further either.

  "Grandfather's cultivation has already reached the peak of the tenth level, and I heard that Second Grandfather's cultivation is even higher, but it hasn't reached the Xiantian realm yet? What's going on? After breaking through the tenth level, shouldn't one reach the Xiantian realm?" Wei Ziming looked at his grandfather, who was only pouring internal energy into the iron toad, a meticulous task that didn't require his operation. As long as there was continuous internal energy, it could be said that this wasn't a laborious task, so he asked aloud.

  "Hehe! The Linghua in the stove should be picked personally, right?" Grandfather Wei Yongde heard this and didn't give a direct explanation, but instead asked a question.

  "Yes!" Wei Ziming knew that Grandfather asked this question for a reason, so he answered readily.

  "Shouldn't you see some strange lines flickering on the Ling flower before picking it?" Grandpa continued to ask.

  "Yes!" Wei Ziming nodded slightly.

  Let me put it this way! The universe has its own laws in operation, just like the sun rises and the moon sets, that's the rule of the universe.

  The heaven and earth nurture all things, which also have their own laws. The individual in the heaven and earth can be seen as an independent small world. Just like the body is a small world, and that one spiritual flower is a small world. The mysterious lines on the spiritual flower are the rules of this small world.

  When the spiritual flower truly blooms, it is a subtle communication between the rules of the spiritual flower's small world and the rules of this vast world. Although this is only a brief communication, after the communication, the rules of the spiritual flower's small world can be embodied in this vast world.

  The internal rules of the human body are what we commonly refer to as meridians.

  We often say 'martial way', where 'wu' is reflected in the acquired realm, and 'dao' is reflected in the innate realm.

  The cultivation of the second grandfather has broken through the peak of the tenth layer, although it has not yet reached the Xiantian realm, but one foot has already stepped into the Xiantian realm, so his cultivation is in a half-step Xiantian position.

  And half a step prior to heaven, is actually just condensing one's own rules, refining one's own meridians, and virtualizing one's own meridians.

  "When one's own meridians are all fully transformed, one's own rules can be manifested in the great world. Only then has one truly reached the realm of pre-heaven." Grandfather explained in detail.

  "So that's it! Second Grandfather will soon become a congenital strongman?" Wei Ziming had heard such a statement for the first time, and after thinking for a moment, he continued to speak.

  "Heh heh! Although Second Master's step is enviable, it's not easy to set foot in the realm of Xiantian. Refining one's meridians is a process. From what I understand, there are many martial artists with incredible innate talent in this world who get stuck at this stage and can't break through for their entire lives." Grandmaster Wei Yongde shook his head slightly, speaking with a tinge of emotion.
