Any flame that could be chosen by a disciple of the Medicine Palace as their Life Flame was a rare and exotic flame. It was unknown how many times more powerful it was than ordinary flames.
Therefore, the risk of smelting the flame was very high. If one was not careful and caused the flame to explode, it would cause irreparable and serious consequences.
Therefore, the existence of the Fire Melting Platform was to minimize the damage caused by such accidents.
The Fire Refining Crystal Jade was the ore with the best thermal conductivity in the world. As long as a trace of flame energy leaked out, it would be absorbed into the world in an instant and would not cause any fire.
Therefore, as long as one was smelting the flame on the Fire Melting Platform, even if one failed and caused the flame to go out of control, they would still be able to escape.
As long as the cultivator managed to escape in time, the only consequence would be the loss of a medicinal flame, which would not cause any harm to the disciple.
When Chu Chen arrived at the "Fire Melting Platform", he was a little surprised. What entered his eyes was an incomparably huge piece of red crystal. It covered an area of a hundred acres and was about ten feet tall.
Its surface was extremely smooth and flat as if it had been polished. At this time, there were dozens of people gathered together in groups of two or three.
Lightly jumping onto the Fire Melting Platform, Chu Chen was once again shocked by the Medicine Palace's generosity.
The smooth and translucent red crystal was covered with countless fine carvings. Each carvings was about half a foot wide and half a meter deep. A dark red liquid flowed within the carvings, like magma flowing with a scarlet light.
These carvings were the Fire Refining Formation on the Fire Melting Platform. With the protection of this formation, no matter how powerful the flame energy was, it would not explode and cause harm.
Looking down from above, one could see that the huge formation on the Fire Melting Platform was actually made up of nine smaller formations arranged to form a huge Eight Trigrams Formation.
Each trigram of the Eight Trigrams Formation had an altar half the height of a person, and the largest altar was in the middle of the Eight Trigrams Formation.
At this time, except for the altar in the middle, there were people sitting on the other altars to refine the flame. There were many disciples watching carefully around each of the small altars.
In the Medicine Palace, the Fire Melting Platform was a public place. Only when using the altars to refine the medicinal flame would one have to pay a huge amount of contribution points.
There was no need to pay contribution points if one simply wanted to enter and watch. Therefore, once someone came to refine the medicinal fire, more or less, there would be people coming to watch and learn.
After all, to an alchemist, refining the Life Core Medicinal Flame was a major event that was sufficient to determine his future path of cultivation.
Therefore, it was a rare opportunity for everyone to carefully observe the process of other disciples refining their medicinal flames. Observing the process of others refining their medicinal flames would save them a lot of trouble when it was their turn to refine their own medicinal flames.
Chu Chen walked up to the Fire Melting Platform and glanced around. The eight small altars around him had already been occupied, making the place very lively. Only the largest altar in the middle remained unoccupied.
This was exactly what he wanted. The power of the Heavenly Realm's Divine Flame was too strong and terrifying. Even the small altar at the edge of the Fire Melting Platform might not be able to withstand the residual power of the Heavenly Flame. It would be safer to use the most powerful altar in the middle.
"Look, that's Senior Brother Li Xun. The medicinal flame he's refining is the Blue Heart Demonic Flame. That's a Third Grade True Flame!"
"That's nothing. Look at Senior Brother Guo Xuanyu in the southwest. His medicinal flame is the Heart Burning Black Flame. That's a rare Fourth Grade Demonic Flame of the Dark Attribute! Ordinary people would be smashed to smithereens just by touching it for a moment! "
"The Heart Burning Black Flame is indeed terrifying. However, Senior Brother Wang Lun in the southeast has the Blue Sea Mysterious Spirit Flame as well! It's a magical flame that's only born in the deepest part of the sea. Its biggest feature is that it's not afraid of water and has almost no weakness! "
"And the Howling Wind Illusory Flame in the northeast is also not bad. When it's used, there's a demonic howl that can shake one's soul …"
… …
When Chu Chen walked up to the Fire Melting Platform, he could hear the exclamations of the disciples on the small altars from time to time.
Those exclamations were filled with envy and jealousy. Chu Chen shook his head when he heard them. Some people only saw the glory of others after they succeeded. However, they didn't understand the hardships and hard work behind the success.
No one's success was accidental. Accidental success wouldn't last long. Those who only knew how to envy others and didn't know how to work hard would never achieve great things.
Immediately, he walked to the central altar of the Fire Melting Platform. This was also the largest altar in the Fire Melting Platform. It had a diameter of more than one zhang, which was several times larger than the small altars on the side.
After checking the contribution points required to use this altar, he couldn't help but bitterly smile when he saw the bright red number '50,000'.
The cost of using this altar was ten times that of the small altars on the side. Activating the small altars only required 5,000 contribution points. At this point, Chu Chen somewhat understood why the others didn't use the largest altar … it was simply too expensive.
After checking his contribution points, Chu Chen didn't make much money recently. Some time ago, he collected two First Grade God Level Spring Souls in the Spirit Spring Forest and received 60,000 contribution points as a reward. Previously, when he climbed the Stairway to Heaven, he received 70,000 contribution points as a reward.
In addition to some miscellaneous items, he roughly calculated that he had around 150,000 contribution points. However, activating the altar cost him a third of it. This scene once again made Chu Chen sigh. The Medicine Palace's contribution points were never enough.
After pondering for a moment, Chu Chen smiled and placed his palm on the center of the altar. He operated a mysterious technique and poured his spirit force into it.
In an instant, tens of thousands of red lights soared into the sky. The entire Fire Melting Platform trembled slightly.
It was as if an incomparably huge ancient beast had awakened from its slumber. The deep patterns that formed the formation on the platform instantly shone with incomparably bright light. The magma-like red liquid within the patterns also began to slowly flow. It gave people the feeling that blood was gradually flowing, and a huge aura gradually surged out.
"That's … the main altar. Someone is using the main altar!"
"Using it once costs 50,000 contribution points … Who would be so generous as to actually be willing to use that thing!?"
The huge vibration instantly alarmed the entire Fire Melting Platform. Everyone subconsciously looked towards the center. When they saw the calm Chu Chen begin to sit on the huge main altar, everyone's eyes fiercely jumped.
