Chapter 261: Chapter 261: Repairing the Demon Emperor Cauldron

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan the sixth-grade refining material “Earthly Fiend Iron” and received a twentyfold return reward for teaching: the seventh-grade refining material “Demonic Qi Contaminated Earthly Fiend Iron.”]

[Ding, the number of bestowals available today -1, the remaining number of bestowals available today is 4.]

The returned refining material this time was still not the treasure that Lu Changsheng desired.

Lu Changsheng then bestowed four pieces of Earthly Fiend Iron and received three pieces of seventh-grade refining material “Demonic Qi Contaminated Earthly Fiend Iron” and one piece of eighth-grade refining material “Demon Fiend Iron.”

After using up the number of bestowals available for today, Lu Changsheng could only wait until the next day.

The next day, Lu Changsheng bestowed two pieces of Earthly Fiend Iron and four pieces of Demonic Qi Contaminated Earthly Fiend Iron.

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan the sixth-grade refining material “Earthly Fiend Iron” and received a twentyfold return reward for teaching: the seventh-grade refining material “Demonic Qi Contaminated Earthly Fiend Iron.”]

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan the sixth-grade refining material “Earthly Fiend Iron” and received a five hundredfold return reward for teaching: the eighth-grade refining material “Demon Fiend Iron.”]

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan the seventh-grade refining material “Demonic Qi Contaminated Earthly Fiend Iron” and received a twenty-fivefold return reward for teaching: the eighth-grade refining material “Demon Fiend Iron.”]

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan the seventh-grade refining material “Demonic Qi Contaminated Earthly Fiend Iron” and received an eight hundredfold return reward for teaching: the ninth-grade refining material “Demon Monarch Iron.”]

…

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan the seventh-grade refining material “Demonic Qi Contaminated Earthly Fiend Iron” and received a ten thousandfold return reward for teaching: the tenth-grade refining material “Demon Emperor Iron.”]

Just when Lu Changsheng thought he would not receive tenth-grade refining material today, unexpectedly, the last act of teaching triggered a ten thousandfold return, directly rewarding him with the tenth-grade refining material needed to repair the Demon Emperor Cauldron!

Today really is a good day, wishes fulfilled.

Lu Changsheng casually performed a Power-infusing Initiation for his fifth disciple Ji Xuan, returning 8888 years of Heavenly Cultivation.

Ji Xuan inexplicably received a batch of refining materials, unable to fathom why.

What profound meaning could the Master have?

After obtaining the tenth-grade refining material, Lu Changsheng went to Flame Mountain Peak and found Elder Xiao Yan from Mount Shu, who was at the sixth layer of the Void Refinement Realm.

“Elder Xiao, I happen to have a piece of Demon Emperor Iron in my dwelling. Do you think it’s possible to repair the Demon Emperor Cauldron now?”

“You really have the Demon Emperor Iron!”

Elder Xiao Yan, taking the small piece of Demon Emperor Iron that weighed ten thousand catties, could hardly believe it. It had only been two days, and Lu Changsheng had actually found the supreme refining material needed to repair the Demon Emperor Cauldron!

“The material is not a problem anymore. However, the Demon Emperor Iron is extremely resilient, and my ‘Volcanic Stone Flame Furnace,’ although a low-grade Immortal Artifact, is still unable to melt this piece of Demon Emperor Iron to merge it with the Demon Emperor Cauldron.”

Elder Xiao Yan, having received the Demon Emperor Iron, was still at a loss.

A low-grade Immortal Artifact was no match for the Demon Emperor Iron.

“Oh. What about this?”

Lu Changsheng unveiled a mid-grade Immortal Artifact, “Golden Crow Divine Furnace.” This artifact could invoke the Golden Crow Divine Fire, which given enough time, could definitely melt the Demon Emperor Iron.

Elder Xiao Yan’s eyes lit up: “With this artifact, give me three months’ time, and I can repair the Demon Emperor Cauldron. I’ve never tried to repair an Immortal Artifact of such caliber before. Truly, I am fortunate through all my lifetimes.”

“Then I will come to collect it after three months. This is your reward.”

Lu Changsheng then produced a ninth-grade Elixir Pill.

“But how… how could this be acceptable?”

Elder Xiao Yan was overwhelmed with surprise.

Lu Changsheng casually offering a ninth-grade Immortal Pill as a token of gratitude was truly frightening.

If one did not work diligently, one would feel unworthy of such a reward.

Lu Changsheng returned to Qingyun Peak and continued practicing the eleventh layer of the Taiqing Wuji Technique.

He was not worried about Elder Xiao Yan running away with the Demon Emperor Cauldron.

Lu Changsheng had also practiced the Technique of Ten Thousand Li Tracking, Soul Searching Skills, and other tracking secret techniques; even at the Ends of the Earth, he could locate the person. He truly wasn’t concerned about someone daring to defect from Mount Shu.

The days spent cultivating on Qingyun Peak were unremarkable; he persisted in teaching his disciples every day, brushed up on the Immortal Artifacts once a month, and after his disciples refined Spiritual Energy, Lu Changsheng continued to give them Power-infusing Initiation.

Before he knew it, three months had passed.

Suddenly, overwhelming Demonic Qi surged across Flame Mountain Peak, alarming the Elders of the surrounding peaks.

This Demonic Qi was all too familiar.

“Hahaha, I, Xiao Yan, have actually repaired the Demon Emperor Cauldron. I truly am a genius!”

Xiao Yan’s voice echoed around Flame Mountain Peak, his mood extremely elated.

A Demon Cauldron hung suspended above Flame Mountain Peak, unleashing terrifying Demonic Qi.

The Demon Lord used this very treasure to nearly destroy Mount Shu.

“Mount Shu truly has a wealth of talent to be able to repair a high-grade Immortal Artifact.”

Lu Changsheng arrived at Flame Mountain Peak to receive the Demon Emperor Cauldron.

Following the Demon-Suppressing Sword, this was the second high-grade Immortal Artifact he obtained, and it also happened to be a space magic treasure.

The Demon Emperor Cauldron could tear through space, allowing instant teleportation, as well as confine space, making it difficult for formidable foes to escape.

As a space magic treasure, the Demon Emperor Cauldron contained an independent space inside, where it could temporarily accommodate beings, bringing these beings along as it tore through space to teleport.

While the Demon Emperor Cauldron was not as suitable for attack as the Demon-Suppressing Sword, it clearly had far more uses.

“Sect Leader, I have repaired the Demon Emperor Cauldron as you instructed. This treasure is not to be underestimated, being a high-grade Immortal Artifact of the Demon Race. Subduing it will probably not be easy…”

Xiao Yan handed back the Golden Crow Divine Furnace to Lu Changsheng and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

“That won’t be a problem.”

Lu Changsheng summoned the Demon-Suppressing Sword.

As soon as this high-grade Immortal Sword was unsheathed, the Demon Emperor Cauldron shook violently, its rampaging presence subdued, and the sky-high Demonic Qi transformed into rolling black clouds, retreating back into the cauldron.

The Demon Emperor Cauldron had been wounded by the Demon-Suppressing Sword and Immortal Slaying Sword during the great catastrophe of Mount Shu and feared the Demon-Suppressing Sword.

Moreover, the Demon-Suppressing Sword was an Immortal Sword specialized in restraining Demonic Qi.

Lu Changsheng suppressed the Demon Emperor Cauldron with the Demon-Suppressing Sword, then he circulated the Taiqing Wuji Technique, pouring a continuous stream of True Qi into the cauldron, forcibly erasing the residual imprint of the Demon Lord within the cauldron and then forming his own mark.

Under the pressure of the Demon-Suppressing Sword, the Demon Emperor Cauldron was successfully refined by Lu Changsheng and became his magic treasure.

After submitting, the Demon Emperor Cauldron settled into the palm of Lu Changsheng’s hand.

Lu Changsheng felt a sense of connectedness as if it were part of his own flesh and blood.

“Just as expected of the Sect Leader, to be able to easily subdue the supreme treasure of the Demon Race.”

Xiao Yan found it incredible that Lu Changsheng had so easily refined the Demon Emperor Cauldron. It was a Demon Race treasure, and subduing such a treasure was a daunting task, yet Lu Changsheng had captured it with ease.

Xiao Yan helped Lu Changsheng repair the Demon Emperor Cauldron, and not only did he receive top-grade Elixir Pills, but he also gained experience in treasure refining, which left him quite satisfied with his gains.

Lu Changsheng returned to Qingyun Peak.

Having refined the Demon Emperor Cauldron, with two high-grade Immortal Artifacts in hand, he was virtually without a match in the early stages of the Unity Realm.

“The Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda should be comparable to high-grade Immortal Artifacts like the Demon-Suppressing Sword and Demon Emperor Cauldron, but it requires merit to nourish the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, which is essential for the pagoda’s levels to increase.”

“I wonder how much merit is needed for the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda to reach its highest forty-ninth layer?”

Lu Changsheng always felt that the Merit Treasure, the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, was not inferior to the Demon-Suppressing Sword or the Demon Emperor Cauldron.

“It seems if I have time, I will need to descend the mountain to spread the Dao and perform acts of virtue, to brush up on merit…”
