153: The birth of the Primordial Qi Cauldron of All Things shocked Tianjizi!

"The Nine Great Immortal Clans are all Longevity Immortal Clans. These families have been passed down since ancient times and possess noble Bloodlines. There are also Great Ascension Stage Old Ancestors within their ranks. The Wang Family, to which Wang Yansheng—who was previously slain by Master—belonged, is one of them, ranking in the middle."

Lu Yuan nodded slightly and then asked, "What about the Qin Family?"

"The Qin Family?"

Shi Zhongyu scratched his head, a trace of disdain appearing on his face: "Although the Qin Family also claims to be a Longevity Immortal Clan, they are at the bottom of the nine families."

"It is said that their current generation is suffering from a lack of talent, with only one Great Ascension Stage Old Ancestor bitterly supporting them. Furthermore, that ancestor seems to have little Lifespan remaining and has been in secluded cultivation for many years. If it weren't for the fact that their ancestors produced a True Immortal who left behind several foundational treasures, they would have likely been swallowed up by other families long ago."

"I see."

A flash of realization crossed Lu Yuan's eyes.

No wonder that Qin Jiuyou, while appearing domineering when taking Xiao Fan away, chose to endure and yield when facing him.

It turned out the Family lacked confidence, fearing they would provoke an unfathomable enemy like himself and bring disaster upon the clan.

"Besides these Human Race forces, there are also the Three Great Evil Races: the Soul Clan, the Evil God Clan, and the Nether Race. They have long been entrenched in the Nether Lands of the far west, standing in opposition to the Human Race."

"As for our Primordial Royal Race..." Shi Zhongyu sighed, "We have long since declined. Except for a few King Races that still have Great Ascension Stage old antiques presiding over them, most can only linger on in remote regions, just like me."

After listening to Shi Zhongyu's report, Lu Yuan gained a clear understanding of the situation in the Central Region.

Great Ascension Stage!

This was a sharp sword hanging over the heads of all forces in the Central Region.

Although his current combat power was Heaven-Defying and he could slay those at the Peak of Body Integration, facing a Great Ascension Stage Supreme who had mastered the Laws of the Great Dao or even begun to touch upon the rules of the Immortal Dao would likely still be somewhat difficult.

"I must increase my strength as quickly as possible."

Lu Yuan made a decision in his heart.

"Shi Zhongyu, you may withdraw. Go to the back mountain and assist the Azure Flood Dragon in guarding the mountain gate."

"Yes, Master."

After Shi Zhongyu withdrew.

Lu Yuan stood up and, with a flash of his body, arrived in the depths of the Eternal Night Demon Palace.

This was an absolutely safe and private place for secluded cultivation.

He flipped his palm.

Boom!

A large pile of Materials emitting brilliant treasure light appeared in the hall.

Mother Gold of All Things, dragon pattern black gold, starfall meteor iron... as well as various top-tier divine Materials scavenged from the Storage Rings of the Withered Wood Sword Saint and Wang Yansheng.

These Materials were piled up like a mountain. Any one of them, if taken outside, could make Void Refining Cultivators fight to the death, yet they were currently piled before Lu Yuan like common cabbages.

"The myriad things mother qi cauldron should also be born now."

A fanatical light flickered in Lu Yuan's eyes.

He had always wanted to refine a natal heavy treasure of his own, a Supreme treasure that could carry his Chaos Dao and suppress the heavens and ten thousand worlds.

Now, the Materials were ready, his cultivation was sufficient, and he even possessed the essentials of Artifact Refining from the yuantian scripture and the Thousand Mechanisms Puppet Refining Technique.

The right time, the right place, and the right people—all were present!

"Rise!"

Lu Yuan gave a low shout, using the Law of Time to drive the Eternal Night Demon Palace, activating a tenfold time flow rate.

The flow of time within the Eternal Night Demon Palace changed instantly.

He sat down cross-legged and opened his mouth to exhale.

The Azure Lotus Earth Heart Fire, Phoenix True Fire, and Southern Bright Separation Fire merged, transforming into a massive three-colored fire lotus.

"Red Emperor Fire Sovereign Qi!"

Lu Yuan then activated the Five Elements Laws, pushing the Law of Fire to its extreme and injecting it into the fire lotus.

The raging flames instantly enveloped the mountain of Materials.

"Refine!"

Lu Yuan's Divine Sense acted like a hammer, constantly striking and tempering those divine Materials.

The Mother Gold of All Things was the most difficult to melt, but under Lu Yuan's continuous calcination at the cost of his Origin Essence Blood, it finally began to soften, turning into a mass of liquid flowing with the two types of Profound Yellow Qi.

The dragon pattern black gold transformed into a black wandering dragon, weaving through the golden liquid.

Lu Yuan seemed tireless, focusing all his attention on the Artifact Refining.

He carved all the Law patterns he had comprehended onto the walls of the cauldron.

Chaos as the base, the Five Elements as the pillars, Yin and Yang as the ears, and Time and Space as the legs.

Only a few days had passed in the outside world.

But within the Demon Palace, several months had already gone by.

On this day.

Buzz!

From the long-silent refining furnace, a dull and heavy chime from the cauldron suddenly rang out.

The sound was not loud, yet it seemed to echo from the end of the Great Dao, causing Lu Yuan's Divine Soul to tremble slightly.

"It's done!"

Lu Yuan was overjoyed and abruptly withdrew the flames.

Boom!

A beam of extremely brilliant Profound Yellow divine light broke through the Restrictions of the Demon Palace and even penetrated the spatial barriers, manifesting a Phenomenon in the sky above the Azure Cloud Sect.

A simple and ancient cauldron with three legs and two ears slowly rose into the air.

The entire cauldron was the color of Profound Yellow, and its walls were carved with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, plants, birds, and beasts.

It did not have an overly magnificent appearance, but it gave off a feeling of extreme weightiness.

It was as if this single cauldron represented an entire world!

From the mouth of the cauldron, myriad things mother qi cascaded down. Every strand was as heavy as a thousand jun, crushing the eternal heavens.

A Transcendent Spiritual Treasure—the myriad things mother qi cauldron!

Furthermore, because it had incorporated so many divine Materials and Lu Yuan's Chaos Law, the grade of this cauldron was extremely high upon its birth. Even among Transcendent Spiritual Treasures, it was at the very forefront.

Moreover, it was a growth-type treasure. As Lu Yuan's cultivation increased, it would even have the chance to be promoted to an Immortal Artifact in the future!

"What a fine treasure!"

Lu Yuan reached out and beckoned.

The massive cauldron, as heavy as a mountain, rapidly shrank and landed in his palm, spinning around and conveying a sense of intimacy as if they were connected by blood.

This treasure possessed the characteristics of integrated offense and defense, and could even refine all things. Holding the myriad things mother qi cauldron, even a Mahayana Supreme would find it difficult to break through his defense.

This was Lu Yuan's tool for attaining the Dao!

...Meanwhile.

Central Region, Tianji Pavilion.

The Heavenly Secret Master, who was meditating in a secret room, had a flash of uncertainty and alarm in his eyes.

Before him, that golden stone tablet began to vibrate violently once again.

Ten thousand rays of golden light and auspicious energy gushed forth.

The name of a Supreme treasure called the "Primal Chaos Golden Dipper," which had originally been ranked seventh, suddenly dimmed and fell to eighth place.

In its place was a brand-new name radiating Profound Yellow Qi.

【Seventh Place: myriad things mother qi cauldron】

【Owner: ???】

【Location: ???】

"This... what is this?!"

The Heavenly Secret Master stared fixedly at that line of text, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

"myriad things mother qi?! Isn't that a Supreme treasure that is said to appear only when the world is first created?"

"Someone was actually able to refine it into a cauldron?!"

"And it squeezed into the top ten as soon as it was born?!"

Stormy waves surged in the Heavenly Secret Master's heart.

He frantically pinched his fingers to calculate, even going so far as to burn a hundred years of his Lifespan, wanting to deduce who the owner of this heavy treasure was.

However.

No matter how he tried to deduce it, a mist always shrouded the heavenly secrets. Furthermore, because of his forced prying, a terrifying backlash force struck along the lines of Karma.
