"Father!" Seeing the blue-skinned man sinking into the water, a young man in green with purplish lips cried out in sorrow.
"The culprit has been killed. How can you still be so evil?" The middle-aged man with the iron fan opened and closed the iron fan in his hand. When he flipped it, it brought out a cold wind.
"Boss, my condolences!" At the side, the middle-aged man who was holding the iron fan with the cauldron was trembling. Her entire body was wrapped in a layer of black leather armor, revealing only a pair of eyes, bright red lips, and a pair of fair and delicate hands. She consoled the middle-aged man, "As long as you're alive, you'll avenge the marshal in the future!"
"Alright, I'll let you slaves go today!" The young man in green snapped out of his daze. As he retreated, he said, "Pigboy, it's too late to leave!"
Pigboy, who was burly and fat, dressed and looked like a butcher, quickly retreated. As he ran out of the hall with the woman in black and the man in green, he thought to himself with lingering fear, "That was close … I wouldn't have been able to hold on any longer …"
However, the strange thing was that the enemies that had been fighting with them to the death did not chase after them at all. Instead, they turned around and retreated into the hall. However, the middle-aged man with a thick beard who wore a loose robe and a tall crown had tears in his eyes. His expression was filled with grief from the death of a loved one. It was extremely strange.
"Damn it, I'll settle this with you sooner or later!" At the same time, the man with the tall hat said hatefully.
At the same time, after waiting for a while, the blue-skinned man still did not appear. He was certain that the blue-skinned man must have been corroded by the strong acid water and become a dead man. He turned around and stared blankly at the floor that was filled with broken copper cauldron pieces and broken limbs. He was speechless.
"Sob sob, Fa 'er …" Beside him, a woman in tight clothes suddenly knelt on the ground and cried bitterly with a broken limb in her hands.
"Madam, the one who died is not the second young master!" At this moment, the man with the iron fan landed beside the woman with his Qinggong. He asserted.
The madam was shocked when she heard that. She hurriedly asked, "What? Then … who is this child? "
"The person in the cauldron is actually Yue Jiang's son. He was afraid that the Marquis would not allow the child to be substituted, so he secretly swapped the child." The man with the iron fan said with a gloomy expression. As for the Yue Jiang he spoke of, it was likely the middle-aged man who had tears in his eyes. It was no wonder that his expression was so sorrowful and his voice was so angry.
"Second Young Master is actually placed in the Spirit Palace below," the man with the iron fan continued.
"Hah! It's Le Jiang … Little Bean! " The handsome man at the side suddenly came back to his senses. His eyes were wide open as he exclaimed in shock.
"This humble subject made a decision without authorization. Please forgive me, Marquis!" The middle-aged man with a sorrowful expression, Le Jiang, came to the side of the heroic man. He cupped his fists and apologized, "The Demon Commander only destroyed the fake cauldron. The real main cauldron is placed in the Spirit Hall below."
"Shh. I couldn't stop those three ferocious men and was almost killed! " At this moment, along with the sound of panting, a slightly plump bald man wearing a yellow brocade robe with some wrinkles on his round face appeared. An old man with a long gray beard ran over and said.
Then he hurriedly urged, "Quickly open the mechanism and see if the main cauldron and the second Young Master are safe!"
Hearing the words of the person who came, Le Jiang hurriedly walked to the side of the giant elephant stone elephant. He stretched out his hands and twisted the hind legs of the giant elephant. In an instant, there was a series of "Kacha, Kacha" sounds, and a circular hole with a diameter of more than one meter was exposed from the Yin-Yang fish pattern in the middle of the platform.
"Le Qing's great kindness. This Marquis … "The heroic man, who was full of gratitude to Le Jiang who used his own child to save his son, disregarded the difference between the monarch and his minister. He rushed to Le Jiang's side and bowed down.
"Marquis, as a minister, I should do my best until my death. It is my son's honor to be able to save Second Young Master!" Le Jiang saw the situation. He hurriedly knelt down before the heroic man and said sincerely.
Even Ito Sei, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but feel a faint admiration for his loyalty, but more than that, he was speechless. What kind of kindness and loyalty could make him willing to go against the principles of the natural order? Using his own child to exchange for other people's child?
"Perhaps it is also for the hundreds of thousands of people in Xiqi." Sei Itō sighed in a low voice.
According to the information he collected, the Nine Cauldrons Wonderful Method, although it had the ability to change fate, the price of failure was equally serious. That was to destroy the fate of a country and make the people in the country wake up. From then on, they would suffer from the disaster of war, natural disasters, homeless and miserable, and suffer the pain of the troubled world! It was also because of this reason that Sei Itō still chose to stand aside and wait for the development of the matter, even though he knew that he could definitely earn a lot of worlds if he acted now.
Of course, in addition to this, there was another existence that made him choose not to act now, but that was a matter for the future and had nothing to do with the present.
The heroic man, the Marquis of the West, Ji Chang, quickly reached out to help Le Jiang up and held his hand tightly. For a moment, he and Le Jiang fell silent.
Fortunately, it did not last long, and then they were interrupted by the bald old man, "There's no time to lose, let's go down quickly!"
So they did not hesitate and used their lightness skills to fall down from the hole.
It was still a large hall, but it was different from the crude hall above. Not only was this hall exquisitely built, with a round dome and intricately carved stone dragons on the stone walls, there were also some simple decorations. Four large red lacquer pillars with golden divine dragons and black dragon cloud patterns engraved on the surface stood in four directions. Exquisite stone figures that looked like terracotta warriors and horses and square stone pedestals that looked like nunneries stood around the hall at intervals. Several stone steps were slanted to the center to form a connection.
In the center of the arc-shaped pit in the center of the hall, a dark copper cauldron that was more than two meters tall stood in the middle. Its ears were raised to the sky, its mouth was open, and its surface was intertwined with two dragon scales.
It was unknown if it had not been opened for a long time or for some other reason, but a gust of cold air surged the moment everyone landed, enveloping the Marquis of the West and the others. They could not help but feel shocked. Among them, the female guard in embroidered gown shivered under the stimulation of the cold air because her inner strength was not high.
At the same time, the five different-colored dragons that were originally scattered also seemed to have found their way home. They flew down from the hole with everyone and hit the big cauldron below.
"The cold air is so powerful. Will Fa 'er be frozen inside?" The madam asked worriedly when she saw how powerful the cold air was.
As for the main character she was worried about, Ji Fa, he sat cross-legged in the big cauldron with a calm expression. Under the protection of the blazing energy emitted by the red gem that was born with him at his waist, he said to himself proudly, "Hmph. I, Ji Fa, am not afraid of the cold! "
However, at this moment, a large amount of blazing flames spewed out from the many holes in the ground below the big cauldron and burned towards the big cauldron.
"Everyone, open it too late. The extreme Yin Qi of the Nine Cauldron Wonder Technique has triggered the extreme Yang Qi of the underground — the Earth Fire!" The fat old man's expression changed when he saw this. He used his qinggong to retreat while reminding everyone loudly.
The others did not dare to hesitate when they heard this. They also used their qinggong to retreat from the cauldron.
Almost at the same time that everyone retreated, more flames spewed out, burning the copper cauldron in the center like a big pot.
Not long after, the hall, which was originally as cold as an ice room, became steaming hot.
"The combination of Yin and Yang is the highest realm of the Nine Cauldron Wonder Technique. The power of the universe is enough to move fortune and misfortune, "the fat old man said in a resigned tone.
"Fa 'er is in the cauldron. How can he withstand the cold and heat?" The madam looked at Ji Fa and asked anxiously.
"Madam, whether the child has the fortune to live in this world or not depends on whether he can withstand this ordeal." Although he was also worried about losing the child in the cauldron, as a man and the person in charge, he naturally had to bear the burden. Therefore, Ji Chang's expression did not change as he comforted her.
"Madam, the second young master is blessed. He will definitely be able to withstand it. Don't worry too much," the female guard comforted.
"Now is the most important time. As long as he can withstand this 15 minutes, the Nine Cauldron Wonder Technique will succeed!" The fat old man said with a solemn expression.
"I hope that the ancestors will bless Fa 'er and the hundred thousand people and let them escape from this calamity!" Ji Chang raised his head and looked at the Five Dragon Cauldron in front of him. He prayed.
However, not long after his voice fell, a burst of wild and complacent laughter echoed in the quiet hall.
"Hahaha, you bunch of idiots, do you think you can fool me? I'll beat you at your own game and expose your tricks! Watch me smash this cauldron into pieces! " The blue-skinned man, the Demon Commander, who was supposed to be dead, suddenly appeared at the entrance of the cauldron. He gathered his strength and quickly slammed it down on the cauldron below.
Everyone was completely unprepared for this unforeseen event. By the time they wanted to stop it, it was already too late. They could only watch helplessly as the Demon Commander's palms landed on the cauldron.
"Boom!"
In an instant, there was a loud sound and a large number of deep and terrifying pitch-black cracks appeared on the cauldron's body. Fortunately, the cauldron was not shattered in one blow. The cauldron still managed to maintain its basic form.
The energy overflowed and blew away the earth fire below the cauldron.
How could Ji Chang endure seeing the Demon Commander so arrogant? He immediately ignored the earth fire and rushed to the side of the cauldron, slamming his palm at the Demon Commander. The Demon Commander used his strength and stepped on the air, nimbly dodging Ji Chang's thunderous attack as if he was stepping on clouds.
"In a while, it will succeed. We can't let the Demon Commander destroy it!" The fat old man said loudly. At the same time, he used his qinggong to leap up and attack the Demon Commander in midair.
Yue Jiang and the man with the iron fan did not hesitate either. They both channeled energy into their palms and attacked.
The Demon Commander lived up to his name. He completely lived up to the word 'Demon' in his name. He ignored the three ministers' attacks and roared. Once again, he slammed his powerful inner energy onto the cauldron that was about to shatter.
"Boom!"
"Bang, bang, bang."
At the same time, the three ministers' attacks also landed on the Demon Commander's body without missing a beat.
The cauldron was indeed the main cauldron created by the Nine Cauldrons Wonder Technique. Its body was abnormally sturdy. After receiving two ferocious attacks from the Demon Commander, the cauldron's body still managed to maintain its complete form and did not shatter like the outer cauldron.
At the same time, Ji Chang turned around and counterattacked. Due to the interaction of his inner energy and vitality, his palms transformed into an image of an elephant and slammed towards the Demon Commander with a powerful force.
"Motherf * cker, are you relying on your advantage in numbers?" the Demon Commander said disdainfully. However, he had made up his mind. Even if he was seriously injured, he would borrow the strength of Ji Chang's palm to destroy the cauldron. This would cause the Wonder Technique to fail and complete the King's mission.
Then, he held the cauldron with his right hand and swung his left arm to meet Ji Fa.
In a split second, there was a muffled "bang". The Demon Commander's body shook. The cauldron under his right palm finally could not withstand the powerful attacks and completely shattered. The fragments turned into arrows and shot out in all directions.
Then, raging flames spurted out and merged with the cold dragon in the air, enveloping the young man, Ji Fa, who was exposed from the cauldron.
"Oh my god! Did the Nine Cauldrons Wonder Technique succeed? Or did it fail? "Seeing such a strange scene, the people at the side could not help but exclaim in shock.
"Fa 'er, Fa' er …" On the other hand, the madam was worried about her son's safety. She was not confused by the strange scene and rushed towards Ji Fa recklessly. She was caught off guard and was immediately hit on the head by the Demon Commander who descended from the sky.
"Bang!"
The madam who was hit by the palm immediately opened her eyes wide. Blood flowed out from her seven orifices.
"Mother!" Ji Fa, who was in front of the madam, saw this scene and shouted loudly. Then, he took out the protective short sword that Ji Chang gave him before entering the cauldron and decisively stabbed it into the Demon Commander's abdomen.
"Pu."
"You hit my mother, I'll fight you to the death!" Ji Fa said angrily. He looked like a child, which was completely different from his twelve or thirteen year old body.
"Oh, stinky little one, you actually know how to ambush me," The Demon Commander who was unexpectedly stabbed laughed coldly and waved his hand to hit Ji Fa's body again.
Although Ji Fa was strong, how could he be stronger than the bronze cauldron? Immediately, under the Demon Commander's casual attack, his bones broke inch by inch and his organs shifted. Dark blood flowed out from his seven orifices and his body flew towards the ground at the side like a flying stone.
"Ji Chang, I'll take your dog life another day!" The Demon Marshal, who was extremely confident in his palm strike and was certain that Ji Fa would not be able to survive, no longer tried to show off. He immediately used his Demon Technique and spun in midair. As he spoke, he quickly shot towards the hole above him.
Not long after, he disappeared from the main hall.
"I'll keep you here for a while," Sei Itō who saw the Demon Commander off said in his heart. Then, he waited for Ji Chang.
As expected, not long after, Ji Chang and his group flew out from the underground palace with a sorrowful expression. Then, Ji Chang instructed Le Jiang, the fat old man, the middle-aged man who was holding a fan and the female guard to take care of the matters here. After that, he cleaned up his companions' bodies. He carried Ji Fa and walked out of the underground palace. He used his Qing Gong to rush down the mountain, took a strong horse and quickly galloped away.
Seeing that Ji Chang was leaving, Sei Itō did not stay in the underground palace any longer. He used his Movement Technique and followed behind Ji Chang silently like smoke.
