Chapter 269: Battling Heaven Realm, Han Muye Returns to Heaven Mystic World (3)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The number one cultivator of the younger generation in the Western Frontier!
Even the number one sword cultivator in the Western Frontier, Tu Sunshi, had joined forces with him. He was the immortal sword cultivator, Han Muye!
“Immortal…”
“Immortal, we, we didn’t know it was you!”
“Spare us, Immortal. We were just joking…”
Everyone turned pale and begged for mercy.
Should we run? they wondered.
In front of such an expert, running was courting death.
On the other hand, begging for mercy was the best option.
“From now on, the old site of the Blazing Sun Palace will be the territory of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect. Outsiders are not allowed to come again.”
Han Muye’s eyes were cold as he said indifferently, “Do you understand?”
Those who didn’t understand were fools.
Those who were stubborn at this moment were donkeys.
“Understood, understood. We’re leaving now.”
“Immortal Han, don’t worry. This place is the territory of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect. We won’t come again.”
Everyone hurriedly retreated and ran away.
Originally, Han Muye was unwilling to expose his identity.
However, if he wanted to use the spatial passageway here in the future, he might as well occupy this place.
He had revealed his name today because he wanted to see who would come to snatch this place from the Nine Mystic Sword Sect.
In the Western Frontier, apart from those few sects, no one dared to, right?
However, he revealed his name today. If he returned to the Nine Mystic Mountain, he would probably be intercepted along the way.
If they wanted to kill him, so be it. If those few people didn’t come personally, who could kill him?
Han Muye did not leave immediately. Instead, he led Zhao Yunlong around the old site of the Blazing Sun Palace.
After all, this was the sect treasure of the Blazing Sun Palace. It was good for him to reminisce.
“Master, are you lacking a cauldron?” Zhao Yunlong asked in a low voice after circling around and standing on the ruins of a hall.
He and Daoist Dayan had seen Han Muye refine pills and then seen his pill cauldron shatter.
Han Muye nodded and smiled wryly. “My alchemy method is different from others. It’s very taxing on the cauldron.”
Indeed, not many pill cauldrons could withstand his sword Qi.
“Actually, there’s a pill cauldron in the Blazing Sun Palace. It should still be there.” Zhao Yunlong looked at Han Muye and whispered.
A pill cauldron?
Zhao Yunlong said with a complicated expression, “The quality of that pill furnace is very good. It was the Dao Essence Cauldron of the Palace Master back then.”
The alchemy heritage of the Blazing Sun Palace was extremely profound, and there were many alchemy cultivators in the school.
Thousands of years ago, its master was also an alchemy cultivator.
Back then, it was because refining a superior-class pill caused the Earth fire to erupt and the sect’s array was destroyed that they had no choice but to open the passageway to the outside world, resulting in a disaster.
Han Muye was in need of a pill furnace. Even if he wasn’t, he wanted to see what the Dao Essence Cauldron that Zhao Yunlong mentioned looked like.
Zhao Yunlong led Han Muye through a dilapidated hall and down a huge crater.
The deeper they went, the more obvious the burn marks became.
The air around them grew hotter.
When they were a thousand feet underground, the heat wave was difficult to resist.
The Cloud Dragon Sword transformed into a cloud dragon and protected Han Muye as they made their way forward.
In such a place, even if an Earth Realm expert came, they could only retreat obediently.
Without being a half-step Heaven Realm expert, one could not enter.
Ten thousand feet below, flames were everywhere.
A vast and endless lake of churning lava.
This place was filled with such lava within a radius of 10,000 miles.
“Zhao Yunlong, can you find that Dao Essence Cauldron here?”
Even a Heaven Realm expert would have a headache in this vast lava lake. How could he find a cauldron?
Hearing Han Muye’s words, the cloud dragon wrapped around him said, “Master, don’t worry. There’s a connection between me and the Dao Essence Cauldron. I’ll summon it.”
With that, the Cloud Dragon’s body trembled, and its entire body emitted clouds.
The cloud qi was instantly burned by the flames in the lava lake.
The cloud dragon kept shaking, and more clouds spread out.
Half a day later, the lava rolled and the roar was like thunder.
“Dong—”
“Dong—”
It was as if a huge drum was shaking, and a thousand-foot cauldron slowly revealed magma.
This huge cauldron was covered in fiery red lava. It had three legs and two handles, and the spiritual patterns on it shone with golden light.
Seeing the cauldron, the Cloud Dragon Sword cheered.
The cauldron responded gently.
After a while, Zhao Yunlong’s voice sounded, “Master, when the Earth fire erupted here, the Palace Master suppressed it with the Dao Essence Cauldron. Unfortunately, the Earth fire still spread in the end, and the Dao Essence Cauldron was seriously injured.
“For so many years, he was cultivating here by drawing the power of earth fire.”
At this point, he paused and said, “Because the grade of the spiritual materials refined by the Dao Essence Cauldron was too high, it couldn’t transform.”
Too advanced to transform? Han Muye thought.
What kind of treasure is this?
The transformation of a Dharma treasure was the same as that of a demon. The lower the bloodline power, the easier it was for it to transform. On the other hand, it was difficult for extremely high-level treasures to transform into human form.
“Master, the Dao Essence Cauldron said that your cultivation level is relatively low. I don’t know if you can take it away.
“You can try and see if you can collect it.
“If you can’t, you can stay here and recuperate. Come back when your cultivation level is higher.”
Inadequate cultivation?
Can’t take the cauldron?
Looking at the thousand-foot-tall cauldron in front of him, Han Muye’s eyes lit up.
When have I been looked down on like this?
“Alright, I’ll give it a try,” Han Muye muttered as he rose from the ground and landed on the cauldron.
The fiery red cauldron gently vibrated and spun.
Han Muye laughed and his hand emitted a spiritual light.
However, before the spiritual light could attach itself to the cauldron, it was burned clean by the hot flames.
The spiritual energy was not even qualified to be thrown into the cauldron.
Seeing this, not only was Han Muye not angry, but the smile on his face widened.
This cauldron is a real treasure! he thought.
He took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy that had already been filled to the brim in his dantian rumbled out, turning into a green torrent.
In his sea of Qi, three sword forces directly penetrated and collided with the cauldron.
In his divine treasure, the green Soul Sword Qi trembled. The Spell of the Mortal World condensed by the Great Spirit turned into a ball of light and flew down.
“Boom—”
Three sword forces pressed down, breaking the flames around the cauldron and pressing it into the lava.
Before the cauldron could float up, a green torrent had already wrapped around it.
The cauldron shook and shone brightly. Golden flames collided with the green spiritual energy, creating a dazzling scene.
“Steady.”
Han Muye shouted in a low voice. He raised his hand, and the light and shadow formed by the Spell of the Mortal World and the Soul Sword Qi enveloped the cauldron.
“Hum—”
The thousand-foot-tall cauldron shook, and a rough voice came from it. “Alright, as long as you can refine 10 percent, I’ll acknowledge you as my master.”
As soon as it finished speaking, a powerful suction force sucked Han Muye’s spiritual energy into the cauldron.
This consumption of spiritual energy was even faster than Han Muye’s.
Do you want spiritual energy?
Not enough spiritual energy in the dantian?
Han Muye smiled.
In the next moment, 10 immortal-grade pills shone like stars above his head.
Around him, 100,000 Fire Essence Stones were like a galaxy.
“As long as you can consume them, I have plenty of spiritual energy.”
