Rule

As Ou Yangming continued to walk toward the mountain peak, he saw tens of high platforms along the way.

Every platform was occupied by a human blacksmith or alchemist, and each one was surrounded by at least 10 or at most tens of spirit beasts.

Needless to say, the spirit beasts were not wasting their time around the platforms; they were waiting for the human masters above the platforms to either smith pieces of equipment or refine pills for them.

Ou Yangming did not know much about the refinement of pills, and he never imagined himself cultivating alchemy art while being a blacksmith. Therefore, he simply glanced past the high platforms where pills were being refined. On the other hand, the young fellow would stop and watch for a while whenever he saw blacksmiths using their spiritual fires on their respective platforms.

Those blacksmiths naturally used various concealment techniques on their spiritual fires.
