Spirit Vessel
chapter-1128-16091312

Liu Ruixin sat opposite Feiyun, looking a bit tense. After all, provoking him had severe consequences.

“We met ten years ago outside of Bronze Cauldron, what a coincidence.” Feiyun said: “I don’t get it now, you’re the White Moon Messenger, why did Ye Siwan send you here?”

“The demonic treasury is appearing again soon so many cultivators have arrived.” She responded; her expression changed slightly.

“Oh? Then I’m back at the perfect time.” Feiyun narrowed his eyes.

The demonic treasure was connected to Immemorial Divine Phoenix. Mo Yaoyao said that she had gotten the saint blood here.

Moreover, it could also be the resting place of the divine phoenix. A trip was necessary.

“You want to enter Bronze Cauldron?” Ruixin blocked his path because the three powers were in charge of it now.

“Lil Sis, you can’t stop me. You best take a shower and wait for my return, maybe I’ll start liking young girls instead of married women, hehe.”

“Scoundrel.” She glared at him while her chest heaved up and down from rage.

His expression suddenly became serious: “You will not tell anyone of my return. I would like to keep a low profile.”

***

Despite his wish, the news of his return still traveled to the other two powers - Grand Dragon Temple and Jin Dynasty.

“Amitabha, my name is Fa Lang, it is my pleasure to meet you, Senior Feng. I have heard many stories about you.” A monk in white came to see him.

“Your Excellency, you’re finally back. I pay my respects to you.” An old man in an official uniform kneeled before Feiyun with tears streaming down his cheeks, acting as if his father had just returned from military deployment.

This was the difference between a monk and an official.

A monk had limits regarding flattery. The same couldn’t be said about these shameless officials.

Feiyun naturally didn’t recognize them. Alas, he couldn’t be so rude and leave after their courteous greetings.

The monk turned out to be a disciple of Monk Zhi Zhang. As for the old man, he was a prefecture lord from Jin.

Feiyun chatted with them a bit before heading into Bronze Cauldron. None dared to stop him.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief after he was gone. Nonetheless, they had their own worries and returned to their post.

A while later, talismans flew out of the palaces. The destinations included Jin’s royal palace, Grand Dragon Temple, and Sun Moon Sect.

***

Sun Moon Sect - on a cliff with a spirit tree possessing the same name.

Light rain fell softly on the leaves, issuing a dripping noise. Ye Siwan paced back and forth under the tree with a talisman in her hand. She then gazed in the direction of Bronze Cauldron and sighed.

The news of Feiyun’s return caused quite a stir. The big shots wanted to find out the reason for the devil’s return.

Meanwhile, Feiyun and his group entered Bronze Cauldron and came across Refined Fiery Domain.

Next to this ocean were countless corpses and ashes - both from humans and demons. It seemed that millions were refined each day.

“I got a phoenix bone here and Yama told me that it came from an unbelievable place. I didn’t know where it was back then but he was definitely talking about a corpse pit from the myriad battlefield.” Feiyun said.

“That doesn’t make sense. The corpse pit is on the other side of the cemetery, we have traveled an immense distance away from it.” Ximen Chuixiao said.

“You’re mistaken about something, this corpse pit isn’t actually in front of us.” Feiyun shook his head.

Chuixiao reached forward, wanting to take a bone out of the ocean. However, a heavenly force nearly dismembered his arm if he hadn’t pulled back fast enough.

Feiyun had tried before - nothing could get through this ocean. Only his spirit vessel could traverse this place.

After answering an old question, he left this place and went deeper into the mountain.

The place has become chaotic with natural disasters - violent gales and quakes.

“Looks like the demonic treasury might really open soon.” Feiyun stood on top of a peak and observed the changing energies floating upward. They could only be seen by someone versed in reading energy fluctuation.

“Raa!” Red mist painted the sky red after a draconic roar that could be heard across Jin..

“What an ominous sign, it’s coming from Bronze Cauldron.”

“It must be that monster, he’s really back.”

“He has reached a frightening cultivation realm, no one can stop him now.”

Everyone was worried after hearing about Feiyun’s return.

As for Feiyun, he frowned and said: “Why is the dragon going crazy?”

“He’s fighting a strong demon spirit.” The fruit returned and reported.

“Don’t worry about him, he’s bored after eating too much.” Feiyun said.

The turtle and Ximen Chuixiao have left as well but Feiyun wasn’t worried, they were strong enough to take care of themselves.

He traveled alone and scanned the geography and heavenly momentums of this place.

“I can smell the stench of blood and evil energy here, a great battle happened recently.” This place was no longer dangerous to him.

He eventually met a large tree with bones stuck to the branches. It had plenty of aged spirit fruits as well.

“You again.” He smirked with arms crossed in front of his chest. He was nearly killed by this demon spirit after grabbing one of its fruits in the past.

It didn’t know Feiyun but could sense his current cultivation. Thus, its feet got out of the ground, allowing it to run swiftly.

Unfortunately, Feiyun was too fast. He appeared in front of it and uprooted the entire tree.

He took the spirit fruits before going to find Ximen Chuixiao and the turtle.

These 10,000 fruits were no longer useful to him. However, he could use them as presents for friends back in Jin.

By the evening, he found the two near a river and threw the tree down: “Where’s the blood dragon? He must have killed a lot of beasts today. Tell him to take out a few so that we can have some roast meat, it’s been a while.”

The turtle and Ximen Chuixiao exchanged glances.

“Uncle Dragon nearly got killed by a monster, he barely made it out.” The fruit revealed.

This surprised Feiyun - something here actually managed to defeat a dragon monarch?

He then heard groans and curses coming from the river.
