His spiritual veins were naturally broken and he couldn't hold even a ray of spiritual energy - in the eyes of others, Lu Chen was a useless person who couldn't even "draw energy", and was the lowest level of dust on the path to immortality.
Until he touched a small rusty stove from the bottom of a dry well behind the village.
This furnace does not refine elixirs or weapons, it only "swallows" them. Swallowing corpses, devouring utensils, swallowing all discarded dead objects, and then slowly boiling them into a pool of essence for him to take.
Others store spiritual energy in their Dantian, while he stores all things in the abyss.
——Withered veins can hardly sustain a ray of Qi, this body is hidden in the abyss.
While all the proud men were still counting their little possessions in the Dantian, Lu Chen was already carrying an entire abyss on his back, step by step, towards the end of immortality.
