Spirit Vessel

The seven colors and edges of Heaven Jewel came from seven different materials with the saint affinity.

Feiyun eventually deduced them into the following: Blackwater Edge Stone, Cloudwind Iron, Redsilk Ore, Porcelain Gem, Sacred Amethyst, Sky Sand, and Yellow River Aqua.

These rare materials were the reason for the few saint artifacts in existence. Finding any of them was exceedingly difficult, let alone these seven.

Fo Canzi must have spent untold effort and time to create this shell. Fortunately, they have yet to be fused completely so Feiyun could still destroy them to get the soul stone within.

If Fo Canzi were to learn of Feiyun’s aim, he might vomit blood from anger.

Feiyun carefully removed the seven materials…

“Boom!” A golden radiance erupted and forced Feiyun to close his eyes.

When he opened them again, he saw himself being inside a Buddhist world. Beads were the size of stars. Golden runes flowed like a river toward the unknown.

“This is a world inside the material? It’s incredible.”

Feiyun stepped forward and lotus flowers blossomed beneath him. Once he came to the center of Heaven Jewel, he saw a blinding light.

Was this the Soul Spirit Stone?

He became ecstatic and reached for it.

“Boom!” A soul power formed a barrier automatically.

“It’s sentient, no wonder why it’s one of the most precious stones.” His excitement only grew.

The inner core flew out and refined the soul power, allowing him to grasp the stone. It struggled in futility since Fo Canzi had tamed it in the past.

Feiyun lost patience and used his Trinity Cauldron, wanting to refine the stone. This was the first step before imbuing Nangong Hongyan’s six drops of blood into the stone. The remnant memories and soul in the blood would then summon the rest of her soul.

He meditated and continued to send more saint energy into the cauldron, increasing the heat. After four hours, he stopped since no progress was made, causing him to frown.

“I’m overly hasty, Heaven Jewel has been placed in a fiery domain for more than ten thousand years and the soul stone is still intact.”

“Immemorial Divine Phoenix created eighty-one cauldrons before creating the hatchet. I am far from being a pseudo saint right now and only have one cauldron, looks like it’ll be tens of thousands of years.”

“I can’t wait that long

He placed Heaven Jewel inside his cauldron but stopped the refinement process. There must be another method.

For example, borrowing the other cauldrons from the phoenixes or asking Shui Yueting for help.

He shook his head - these choices weren’t realistic.

The other cauldrons were in the possession of the phoenix queens. Just meeting them was difficult enough, let alone borrowing their prized treasures.

As for Shui Yueting, she only cared for his influence among the half-demons, nothing more. An imperious deity wouldn’t care enough to revive a single woman.

He ate a blood pill to recover the spent energy before frowning and noticing something. He activated a chilling aura and raised his voice: “Who are you?!”

A spatial crack appeared and a being shrouded in a black cloak walked out, aiming for Feiyun with a runic dark spear. It wielded a curse as it soared for his forehead.

He didn’t bother standing up and unleashed a palm strike wielding the power of countless beast souls.

“Boom!” His energy collided with the tip of the spear.

This resulted in the spear being crushed and turned into scrap metals.

“Oh?” The unknown entity didn’t expect Feiyun to be so strong, breaking a thirteenth-ranked treasure with his bare fist.

“Abandon mission, miscalculated his cultivation.” It had a hoarse voice and broke through space, wanting to escape again.

“You’re not going anywhere!” Feiyun took out the dragon's eye.

A beam pierced the assassin, allowing Feiyun to capture it.

“So be it!” The moment the assassin was captured, it utilized a forbidden technique to explode. Its body crumbled like glasses before releasing a dark light.

This was a peak fourth-level Heaven’s Emergence cultivator; the destructive potential of this suicidal move was immense.

Feiyun used his cauldron immediately and sucked the exploding being inside.

“Boom!” A massive blast came from within the cauldron, causing the ground beneath the cauldron to crack.

“How decisive.” Feiyun had a serious expression and left the room, certain that there were more assassins.

He saw Daoist Qian’er and Five-willow Master outside holding black cloaks. The ground was covered in blood.

The daoist threw the cloaks down and was furious: “Demons, the audacity right here in Chaos City.”

“Amitabha. I predicted this, but not this soon.” Five-willow Master placed his palms together.

The two were incredibly strong and felt ripples in the training manor. They immediately rushed here and captured the other assassins.

Alas, these assassins were frighteningly trained and immediately used a forbidden technique to explode. Only blood and cloaks were left.

Members of Aquamoon also rushed to the scene, prompting the monk and daoist to leave. Only Feiyun was left standing near an altar with an animated statue of Shui Yueting.

Xuanyuan Yiyi landed next to him and said: “Brother Feng, looks like your revelation of our supremacy in the past has struck a chord, that’s why demons are taking the risk to assassinate you here.”

Feiyun stared at the statue with both hands behind his back and smiled: “I’ve offended many before, especially the demons back in the alchemy market, the white spiders, and the tigers. It might not be due to the comment.”

Despite saying this, he knew exactly who sent these assassins to kill him - the invaders. They were the ones who wanted to kill him the most.

This was only the beginning.Explore the genesis of this content at nv@lbin★
