Ye Gu took out a draft from a secret compartnt; it depicted a sword-shaped weapon.
"This is the Heavenly-grade Weapon Nine Dragon Chant, which Ancestor Wu Ming wanted to forge during the World’s First Refining. His Forging skills were unparalleled on the mainland at that ti. Yet, during that attempt, his Artifact Cauldron was tampered with, leading to the final failure of Artifact Refining. I am now entrusting this draft to you. If one day, you reach the Forging Cultivation of Ancestor Wu Ming, I hope you can win this honor back for both him and the Ye Family." Ye Gu said solemnly.
"Ling Yue will certainly rember grandfather’s teachings and soday will forge the Nine Dragon Chant." Ye Lingyue listened with enthusiasm and solemnly accepted the draft.
After leaving the ancestral hall, Ye Lingyue unfolded the draft.
There on the paper leapt the Heavenly-grade Weapon Nine Dragon Chant.
It was an awe-inspiring treasure sword, about the width of two fingers, engraved with nine lifelike dragons.
Ye Lingyue glanced at it and was shocked by the materials required for this Heavenly-grade Weapon.
Ancient Dragon Blood, Phoenix Tail Feather, Red Bead Nine-leaf Grass, teorite Iron, and the Earth Core teor Fire, Five Elents Artifact Cauldron.
These nas listed on the draft, ordinary people would not even recognize.
Ye Lingyue could barely recognize a few, and that was all thanks to the Hong ng Manual, and the information left by Hong ng Fang Immortal.
But seeing a pig walk doesn’t an one has eaten pork.
Where on earth could she find these materials?
Presently, Ye Lingyue possesses a Yellow-grade low-quality Dragon Saliva Needle and a Yellow-grade high-quality Siase Ghost Smoke, both of which are already of extraordinary power.
If she truly possessed a Heavenly-grade Weapon, it’s unimaginable what kind of apocalyptic power it would have.
However, Ancestor Wu Ming also remarked on that draft, warning the descendants of the Ye Family not to attempt to refine the Nine Dragon Chant before reaching the Fang Venerate Level Cultivation.
Just when Ye Lingyue was about to put the draft away, suddenly, her fingertips twitched, feeling a weak spiritual power surging into her body. A middle-aged man dressed in a gray robe appeared before Ye Lingyue’s eyes.
His expression was lancholic; he was no longer young. His eyes, with a tall bridge for the nose, were already marked with quite clear wrinkles, but one could still see that he was a handso man in his youth.
"It has been three hundred years. Who would have thought, among the Ye Family descendants, soone would finally awaken ." The middle-aged man’s eyes, filled with vicissitudes, looked as if he had gone through countless hardships.
It turned out that the draft for the Heavenly-grade Weapon that Ye Gu had given to Ye Lingyue was also mixed with a strand of spiritual power.
This touch of spiritual power was sothing ordinary Martial Artists could not discover; only a Ye Family descendant who also cultivates spiritual power could awaken it.
So for over three hundred years, successive Ye Family Patriarchs never knew that there was such a strand of spiritual power in the draft.
"Could it be that you are the Grand Ancestor, Ye Wuming?" Ye Lingyue noticed the robe the middle-aged man wore; it was evidently an Alchemist Robe. Dressed in a light white palace attire, with a refined and ethereal air, his wide sleeves lent him an air of casual elegance.
Yet on the lapel of the Alchemist Robe, there was only one cauldron, next to which was an embroidered pattern of water.
"So you are the little one who awakened ?" Ye Wuming examined Ye Lingyue, but upon seeing her, his pupils contracted; his previously still and lifeless eyes now contained shock and incomprehension.
"What kind of person are you? How is it that you, clearly just a Third Rank Alchemist, have already cultivated a Solid Cauldron?"
Solid Cauldron? What’s that? Could it be referring to the Qian Cauldron within her?
Ye Lingyue’s palm tightened. It seed Grand Ancestor had discovered her secret.
However, as per what Ye Wuming had said, he probably only noticed the Qian Cauldron. He likely couldn’t yet see through the secret of Hong ng Heaven and Little Zhiyo.
Truly deserving of his reputation as the once greatest Alchemist of Daxia, Ye Wuming spotted the secret that Ye Lingyue had kept hidden ever since her rebirth, with just a glance.
"I am a descendant of the Ye Family, my na is Ye Lingyue. I’m afraid I don’t understand what you are talking about, Grand Ancestor." Seeing Ye Lingyue’s calm face, Ye Wuming took a few more glances at her.
"No, your Solid Cauldron possesses only the Cauldron Soul and is not truly of Fang Venerate Level. Little one, by the looks of it, you might not even know what a Solid Cauldron is, do you?" Ye Wuming noticed Ye Lingyue was quite young, probably no more than thirteen or fourteen years old.
At such an age, even if one started cultivating spiritual power from the womb, it would be impossible to reach Fang Venerate Level, let alone cultivate their own Solid Cauldron.
"Please enlighten , Grand Ancestor." The origins of the Qian Cauldron were too mysterious, and other than a fading grasp from the Hong ng Manual, Ye Lingyue knew nothing, so the appearance of Grand Ancestor Ye might answer many of her questions.
"I ought to explain everything to you, but unfortunately, this strand of spiritual power I left behind cannot hold out much longer. I can only speak with you briefly." As Ye Wuming spoke, his breath was unstable, and that thread of spiritual power flickered like a candle fla in the wind, appearing indeed unable to last much longer.
Only then did Ye Lingyue realize that Ye Wuming had long passed away.
Had Ye Lingyue not arrived when she did, Ye Wuming might not have even had the chance to appear this one ti.
As the forr greatest Alchemist of Daxia, Ye Wuming undoubtedly knew much more about Alchemists than people like President Liao and others.
He inford Ye Lingyue that in Alchemist cultivation, aside from the Void Cauldron of ranks one through nine which requires the assistance of an alchemy furnace, once one breaks through beyond Alchemist and becos a Fang Venerate, they begin to condense and form their own Solid Cauldron.
"The Cauldron Soul in you is the most fundantal thing that forms after an Alchemist breaks through to beco a Fang Venerate. As your strength grows, the Solid Cauldron will beco increasingly perfected. Once it absorbs the Power of Heaven and Earth’s Five Elents, it can evolve into a Heaven and Earth Creation Cauldron." As Ye Wuming reached this point, a hint of longing flashed through his eyes.
Even now, reduced to just a ghostly strand, his passion for the profession of Alchemists waned not in the slightest.
"Grand Ancestor, how can I obtain the Five Elents Power?" Ye Lingyue’s heart skipped beats as she listened.
Ever since she learned of the deep-seated vendetta she carried, she had longed day and night to avenge it. If she could refine a Solid Cauldron, her strength would soar incredibly.
At that ti, she would no longer need to fear Hong Fang and the Hong Residence.
As her thoughts turned to her family vendetta, twin flas ignited within Ye Lingyue’s pitch-dark eyes.
"You are too weak. At thirteen years of age, you possess only the spiritual power of Third Rank, and your Martial Arts Cultivation is rely at the Body Refinent Realm. Unless your Martial Arts Cultivation breaks through to the Elixir Realm, or your Spiritual Power Cultivation reaches Fang Venerate Level, you might be able to perceive the Power of Five Elents between heaven and earth," Ye Wuming sighed.
His implication, however, was a subtle disdain for Ye Lingyue’s talents, which he found too ordinary.
