Fengdu City, Misty Cloud Pavilion.
The Misty Cloud Pavilion was a place that Emperor Fengdu had prepared for Ye Xuan and Minghe Ancestor, a place of seclusion with an excellent environnt and free from disturbance.
A small stream flowed, surrounded by Yin Bamboo, and a gentle breeze brought with it waves of white mist. Ye Xuan and Minghe Ancestor sat opposite each other, with a chessboard set between them as they played a ga.
"You lost!"
Ye Xuan placed a black piece down with a slight smile on his face, while Minghe Ancestor chuckled and casually tossed a white piece onto the board.
"The art of chess is just child’s play, not sothing this ancestor cares to study deeply." Minghe Ancestor felt sowhat indignant, having lost three gas in a row to Ye Xuan naturally left him feeling unsatisfied.
"Heaven and Earth are like a chessboard, all things are pieces. This ga might seem small, but it holds vast wisdom. To be the one who controls the board is not so simple." Ye Xuan smiled.
Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Minghe Ancestor was slightly taken aback, and then sneered, "You always make things sound so mysterious, yet your capabilities are indeed impressive. Even this ancestor admires you."
Minghe Ancestor paused before continuing, looking at Ye Xuan with an inscrutable gaze, "The three Ghost Emperors have been subdued by you, it seems Zhang Heng has been slain by your hand. Surely, the treasure he held has also fallen into your possession?"
Ye Xuan left and returned with the three Ghost Emperors following him. Minghe Ancestor didn’t need to guess Zhang Heng’s fate, but he could never forget the Small Cauldron in Zhang Heng’s possession, and his eyes were full of desire for it.
Zhang Heng had only been able to withstand Minghe Ancestor’s full-powered strike because of the Small Cauldron. Naturally, Minghe Ancestor was concerned about the cauldron’s whereabouts and desired to ask Ye Xuan for it.
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan did not respond to Minghe Ancestor’s inquiry, as he could clearly see the greed in Minghe Ancestor’s eyes.
"Ye Xuan, how about we make a deal? Give the Small Cauldron, and you can choose from among countless treasures I possess. Even the Yuan Tu and Avici swords in my hand can be exchanged." Minghe Ancestor chuckled.
"Minghe, if it were any other item, it wouldn’t be an issue, but this Small Cauldron is extrely important to . I must refuse." Ye Xuan frowned slightly, directly rejecting him.
"Ye Xuan, we have known each other for many years, this item..."
Minghe Ancestor did not give up, nor did he notice the displeasure on Ye Xuan’s face, continuing to plead for Ye Xuan to give him the Small Cauldron. Yet before he could finish, Ye Xuan coldly interrupted, "Minghe, you best not forget your position, otherwise don’t bla this emperor for turning hostile."
"This...?"
Minghe Ancestor was suddenly startled, and finally noticed Ye Xuan’s tightly knit brows. Then his eyes shifted and he smiled ingratiatingly, "I was only joking with you. Since Heavenly Emperor Ye loves this item, I dare not insist."
Minghe Ancestor was smart. When he saw Ye Xuan’s somber expression, he imdiately realized he had displeased Ye Xuan. Moreover, since they were on the sa side, he didn’t want to risk their relationship over an unknown treasure.
"I need to enter a period of secluded cultivation and will erge when the Other Shore Flower ripens."
Ye Xuan left in large strides, leaving Minghe Ancestor awkwardly standing there, who could only sigh helplessly, knowing he had misspoken and certainly created a rift in Ye Xuan’s mind.
...
Inside the Misty Cloud Pavilion!
Ye Xuan sat cross-legged on a ditation mat. His aura was undetectable, his face slightly somber. Minghe Ancestor had just requested the Small Cauldron from him, but Ye Xuan could not possibly give it away.
Although his tone was sowhat firm, it was the stance he needed to take, emphasizing the hierarchy and maintaining order; Ye Xuan also wanted Minghe Ancestor to understand this principle.
Moreover, the Small Cauldron was too important to him to allow any carelessness.
Buzz!
Void ripples, waves ford, and the third mysterious Small Cauldron erged. This prompted Ye Xuan to carefully place it in his hand, quietly sensing the power contained within it.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
When Ye Xuan infused his Cultivation into the Small Cauldron, it underwent a strange transformation. Black electric serpents appeared on the cauldron’s surface, continuously flickering and disappearing around it.
"Gather!"
Ye Xuan frowned, and his palm exhibited an extrely formidable suction, attempting to confine these black electric serpents in his hand. However, as soon as his palm touched the black electric serpents, an excruciating pain spread over his palm.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the black electric serpents vanished, and Ye Xuan’s expression changed. He saw that his palm had already been singed, with a crack appearing on the edge of the palm.
"What terrifying power!" Ye Xuan whispered coldly, his eyes brimming with excitent.
Ye Xuan knew his body well. It was undoubtedly more powerful than the Ancient Twelve Ancestor Witches, yet the black lightning spilling from the Small Cauldron could injure his hand, proving the power contained within it was unimaginably strong.
"Co."
Ye Xuan waved his hand, and the Bronze Immortal Scripture fell into it, excitent gleaming in his eyes. The first two Small Cauldrons had rged into the Bronze Immortal Scripture, providing him with two defiance Great Techniques.
He wondered what surprise the third Small Cauldron would bring him this ti?
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Ye Xuan’s eyes froze, a sound of doubt escaping his lips. As he brought the third Small Cauldron close to the Bronze Immortal Scripture, an extrely violent force erupted from the mysterious Small Cauldron, instantly flinging the Bronze Immortal Scripture aside.
"How can this be?"
Ye Xuan murmured in confusion. This was not what he expected. He thought the third Small Cauldron would rge with the Bronze Immortal Scripture just like the previous two and turn into a new Scripture Page. However, the two violently repelled each other.
"Again."
Ye Xuan picked up the Bronze Immortal Scripture and the Small Cauldron once more, but as soon as they touched, an obscure aura burst forth between them, sending both flying apart again.
"Strange!"
Ye Xuan stared intently at the two objects, his eyes showing seriousness. The thod that had worked flawlessly before was now failing. This third Small Cauldron must be very different from the two previous ones he obtained.
Clang!
Once...twice...three tis...ten tis!
Ye Xuan tested it no less than ten tis, but the result was always the sa. The two seed innately repulsive and simply could not rge.
"Suppress."
Ye Xuan’s face turned cold, his Cultivation surged forth, directly suppressing the mysterious Small Cauldron in the void, and then dominantly repressing the terrifying power within the cauldron, attempting to forcibly rge the mysterious Small Cauldron into the Bronze Immortal Scripture.
Whew!
An extrely frightening phenonon occurred. The mysterious Small Cauldron suddenly erupted with black lightning, instantly engulfing the entire Misty Cloud Pavilion. The inky black lightning burned the space apart, causing a Heaven and Earth Shattering impact.
