"No!" The Little Fox shook his head, and seeing Jiang Xue's surprised expression, he said, "That's no ordinary fire. That's Spiritual Fire; it never goes out. It's been burning since my first master, right up until now."
"Ah, burning for so long, won't this furnace break?" Jiang Xue asked in surprise, thinking the fire was specifically for her alchemy needs, prepared by the Little Fox.
Unexpectedly, this fire burned continuously. For how long? Hundreds or thousands of years?
"How could it be? It's Spiritual Fire we're talking about. It won't go out, but the current temperature isn't high, so to perform alchemy, you must input Spiritual Power."
As the Little Fox explained, he gestured for Jiang Xue to extend her hand into the furnace to test the fire's temperature. Jiang Xue hesitated for a moment and then leaned her head in to try.
Indeed, just as the Little Fox had said, the flame glowed red but had no heat. It was truly astounding—flames without warmth.
