    New book recommendation: *The Calamity Furnace*, respect~ Eastern fantasy, imaginative fantasy #NoOldTypical# Calamity Cultivation Synopsis: Cultivation is borrowing a debt from the Heavenly Dao, and overcoming tribulations is repaying that debt; and within his body lies a furnace, dedicated to refining all the tribulations under heaven. In the Nine Realms, all things need to "borrow the power of heaven" to cultivate. Every breakthrough to a major realm is equivalent to signing a "calamity debt" with the Heavenly Dao. When the debt is due, the Heavenly Tribulation descends: if you survive, the debt is cleared and your realm is secure; if you fail, your body and soul are destroyed, and you don't even have the chance to reincarnate. Therefore, what cultivators fear most is not powerful enemies, but tribulations. Only one in a hundred succeeds in overcoming tribulations. Every city and every sect has people who specialize in handling the aftermath of those who fail in overcoming tribulations: corpse collectors. They are the lowest level of people in the cultivation world, dealing with the remains of those who have failed tribulations year-round, their bodies covered in the indelible stench of tribulation, and are considered ominous. Chapter 1: Corpse Collectors The twilight in Luojie Town, the sky is gray. It wasn't the gray of an overcast day, but rather like an old iron plate, blackened a thousand times by the flames of calamity, weighing heavily on the rooftop. The mortuary at the east end of town had no sign, only a withered willow branch stuck in the lintel: everyone within a hundred miles knew that the place with the withered willow branch was where the dead were collected. Shen Du was squatting on the ground, wiping Wang the blacksmith's face with a burlap sack. Calling it a face was an understatement; it barely resembled a face anymore. Three days ago, Wang the blacksmith had broken through to the Tribulation Realm in his backyard, the tribulation fire pouring into his crown and burning him all night. When the neighbors broke down the door, his entire body was charred black, only the family heirloom breastplate embedded in his chest remained, proving his identity. "Shen boy, clean him up a bit." Wang the blacksmith's son, Wang Dashi, stood at the door, dressed in mourning clothes, but his tone held little sorrow, more impatience than grief. "My father valued dignity in his life; don't let him die a gruesome death." Shen Du didn't look up. His fingers were steady as he carefully wiped away the charred skin with a damp cloth, revealing the still-fragmented flesh beneath. Ordinary morticians wouldn't dare touch a corpse that had failed its tribulation: the remains often carried lingering karmic energy, and even a touch would cause illness for half a month. But Shen Du wasn't afraid. He'd been working in this line of work with his master since he was eight, handling thousands of karmic-stricken corpses, his body already stained with an indelible stench of tribulation. The townspeople said he was tough, able to withstand the karmic energy. Only Shen Du knew it wasn't toughness, but that he could see. He could see the wisp of crimson tribulation fire dissipating from Wang the blacksmith's corpse. The fire wasn't burning the flesh, but coiled around the remnants of the soul, like a dark red snake slowly unraveling. Ordinary people couldn't see anything, only felt a chill and palpitations when near the corpse. But in Shen Du's eyes, the entire mortuary was enveloped in a faint crimson halo. This was his secret. He could see tribulation. From as far back as he could remember, Shen Du could see what hung above everyone's head. For ordinary people, it was a hazy, gray mist, almost invisible; for cultivators, the mist was thicker and darker; and when it came time to undergo tribulation, the mist would suddenly shrink and burn, transforming into tribulation fire, tribulation lightning, tribulation wind—all sorts of deadly things. He had warned Wang the blacksmith before. Three days ago, under the old locust tree at the town entrance, he saw the crimson tribulation aura above Wang's head condense into the shape of a sharp claw and couldn't help but say, "Uncle Wang, the tribulation fire above your head is crimson, a sign of great misfortune. Don't attempt a breakthrough within three days." Wang the blacksmith spat at him. "You little mortician, are you cursing me?" Then Wang Dashi rushed out and shoved him, calling him a "jinx born of a jinx." No one in the crowd spoke up for him; they looked at him like he was a pile of unlucky dog ​​excrement. Shen Du had experienced this kind of thing far too many times. He stopped speaking and lowered his head to continue wiping. Wang Dashi stood at the door for a while, probably feeling the room was unlucky, and left after saying, "Come to Wang's Blacksmith Shop to get your money when you're done." The footsteps faded away, leaving only Shen Du's breathing and the faint crackling sounds of the cauldron fire dissipating from the corpse in the mortuary. When he reached the chest, Shen Du's hand suddenly stopped. Something was wrong. He had clearly seen that the cauldron fire from Wang the Blacksmith was crimson. But now, deep within the charred sternum, where the breastplate had been pressed, there was a very faint light: not crimson, but dark gold. The light was so weak, like a firefly in the wind, flickering among the remnants of the crimson cauldron fire. If it weren't for Shen Du's eyes, no one would have noticed it. He frowned and reached out to remove the breastplate embedded in the bone. The dark gold light flashed brightly for a moment. Shen Du's pupils contracted sharply. It was a wisp of fire. Unlike the crimson flames that clung to the corpse, this wisp of dark golden flame was only the size of a fingernail, quietly hovering in the hollow of Wang the blacksmith's charred sternum. Within the flame was a vague shadow: like a cauldron, or a furnace, ancient and heavy, radiating an indescribable aura of desolation. It wasn't Wang the blacksmith's calamity fire. Shen Du's intuition screamed, telling him not to touch it. He had been a mortician for nine years, witnessing countless bizarre deaths, knowing what he could and couldn't touch. But that wisp of dark golden flame seemed to possess some kind of magic; his gaze was firmly drawn to it, and his body involuntarily moved closer. Just as his face was less than half a foot from the flame, it suddenly trembled. It seemed to come alive, transforming into a stream of dark golden light that pierced through Shen Du's brow. "Ugh!" Shen Du groaned, falling backward, his head hitting the ground heavily. But he could no longer feel the pain. An indescribable heat exploded from between his eyebrows, as if a sun had ignited in his skull, surging wildly along his meridians. His body arched, his fingers digging into the mud, blood seeping from between them. The heat raged within him for an unknown amount of time, finally converging on a certain spot below his lower abdomen—the Qi Sea, as cultivators call it. An ordinary person's Qi Sea is a desolate wasteland, but Shen Du's Qi Sea now contained something new: a furnace. The size of a palm, dark gold, with three legs and two handles, its body covered in dense inscriptions. Shen Du didn't recognize a single one of the inscriptions, yet the moment he saw them, two words naturally surfaced in his mind: Calamity Furnace. Dark gold flames burned slowly within the furnace, while the crimson calamity energy remaining on the blacksmith's corpse, as if drawn by some force, was drawn along Shen Du's brow, nasal cavity, and pores, into the Calamity Furnace. The flames of the Calamity Furnace suddenly leaped higher. The tribulation flames that once terrified countless cultivators were refined like firewood in the furnace, transforming into an extremely pure wisp of power that overflowed from the furnace and slowly flowed into Shen Du's limbs and bones. His body was glowing. This wasn't a metaphor; a dark golden light flowed beneath his skin, like magma coursing underground. His shattered meridians were forcibly widened and reshaped, and his atrophied muscle fibers became firm and strong again under the infusion of power. Even his pale skin, worn from years without sunlight, radiated a warm glow. The entire process lasted about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. When the last wisp of crimson tribulation energy was refined, the flames of the furnace returned to calm. Shen Du collapsed to the ground, panting heavily. Sweat soaked his clothes, making him look as if he had been pulled from water.

    It looks good, but it's actually a fantasy cultivation novel. The supporting characters are distracting. It features elements of storytelling, slapstick comedy, and crosstalk. The humor is nonsensical, and the bizarre cultivation techniques are hilarious. It incorporates history, mythology, and legends. It's an original cultivation novel that doesn't imitate others. It's good, with a slow pace.
