Refinement Cauldron

Gu house in Reverend Insanity

VIII

Refinement Cauldron is a rank eight Immortal Gu House. Given enough time, it can forcibly refine other Gu Immortals' Immortal Gu.

During the crisis at Lang Ya blessed land, Mo Tan Sang asks Lang Ya land spirit to use Refinement Cauldron early against the invaders. Fang Yuan hears the name there and treats the House as the land spirit’s hidden trump card. ch. 878

Effect

Gu Immortals under its pressure can only rely on Immortal Gu and immortal killer moves, and once those Immortal Gu are refined they lose the basis to resist. ch. 878

Origin

Long Hair Ancestor created Refinement Cauldron as a second rank eight Immortal Gu House beside Eighty-Eight True Yang Building. ch. 878 ch. 879

Formation comparison

Lian Jiu Sheng states that Heavenly Court’s refinement path Gu formation is only a predecessor’s mimicry of Long Hair Ancestor’s Refinement Cauldron from past records, and that the real House still sits in Lang Ya blessed land with its core Immortal Gu. Because Immortal Gu are unique while that House remains, elevating the Gu formation into an Immortal Gu House is treated as nearly impossible without a redesign that uses other Immortal Gu as the core. ch. 879

Staffing and demand

The more hairy man Gu Immortals in Refinement Cauldron, the more powerful it is and the faster it can refine others’ Immortal Gu. Fang Yuan links earlier successful captures of invaders to hairy man Gu Immortals stationed inside the House. Qin Bai Sheng demands the House, and Lang Ya land spirit refuses. Qin Bai Sheng states he will not allow time for the House to refine their Immortal Gu. ch. 882

Fusion and raid

Qin Bai Sheng pulls Gu worms from the sky while the mysterious black robed Gu Immortal and Fairy Jiang Yu collect Gu worms at other locations, and Hei Cheng with Dark Prison block the silver giant. The land spirit warns that losing the House would collapse large parts of the blessed land. ch. 884

Refinement Cauldron is fused into the immortal aperture world. Its Immortal Gu dao marks expand Lang Ya blessed land’s space and resources, and living beings inside the aperture sit inside its refinement range. That fusion also let the earlier Lang Ya land spirit raise many hairy man Gu Immortals. The drawback is that the House cannot be moved without shrinking the aperture and causing huge losses, which is why the land spirit prefers other methods over summoning it to fight. ch. 884

Even after many Gu worms and some Immortal Gu are lost, the House can still refine others’ Gu as long as its core remains intact. Shadow Sect moles among the hairy man Gu Immortals left to guard it turn on the land spirit. ch. 884

House remnant

Qin Bai Sheng later retreats with about half of Refinement Cauldron and calls the taken portion an incomplete Immortal Gu House. ch. 885
