Chapter 130

In the following days, Zhan Chen began to focus all his energy on breaking the restrictions on the cauldron. After becoming a Revered Martial Artist, not only did his efficiency greatly increase, but his True Qi's endurance also doubled.

With these two factors superimposed, the efficiency of breaking restrictions was more than ten times higher than before. The restrictions on the cauldron were decreasing rapidly.

However, Zhan Chen's mood was not relaxed. Instead, he became more and more anxious. "It's really a case of running a horse to death. There didn't seem to be many restrictions at first, but it takes so much time to break them! Besides, what's going on with the last inhibition?! "

It turned out that the half a year of closed-door training was over. Today was supposed to be the day that Zhan Chen would end his closed-door training and report to the manager of the spiritual fields.

However, the work of breaking restrictions had also reached the most critical moment. There was only one restriction left, and it was like a tiger blocking the road in front of him, making it impossible for him to stop.

This restriction was completely different from the previous ones. It was the parent and support of all the previous restrictions. It could be said that all the previous restrictions were derived from the last restriction. In other words, the last restriction was the skeleton or carrier of all the previous restrictions.

Just as Zhan Chen was feeling anxious, he felt a tremor in his soul. He was surprised. It was Frightened Boy who had taken the initiative to contact him. He asked, "Boy, why are you here?"

From what he remembered, Frightened Boy was usually in a deep sleep. Even when he took the initiative to contact him, he did not respond. However, today, he seemed very active.

"Hehe, Master, look at what you're saying. Do you think I have the mood to sleep when the treasure is in front of me?" The boy's vulgar laughter sounded in his mind again.

"Look at you, you little money-grubber!" Zhan Chen could not help but laugh and scold him. For a moment, his nervous mind relaxed a lot.

"But Master, to be serious, this is the most critical moment, so I have to make a move. Otherwise, you might really be flustered and tired of dealing with it." The boy suddenly became serious.

"What's going on?" Zhan Chen could not help but ask.

"Master, this treasure is good, but it's surrounded by layers of restrictions. It must not be an ordinary item. It might even be a Dao item. When the time comes, with your experience and cultivation, I'm afraid you won't be able to subdue it, so I have to come out and teach you."

Only then did Zhan Chen understand. His face began to turn serious. He began to feel lucky that he had a good helper like Frightened Boy. Otherwise, his cultivation path would not be as smooth as it was today.

But after a while, he started to get irritated again and said, "Don't talk about this precious treasure, just this last restriction has troubled me for three days! The range of this restriction is very large, and it envelopes the entire alchemy furnace. The spirit threads on it are even more complicated like a maze. I tried to break a part of the spirit threads with the Array Breaking Technique, but it seems to have a life of its own, and it will restore the spirit threads that have been broken. No matter how I try, I can't break it! "

This restriction covers a large area and covers the entire cauldron. The spirit lines on it are as complicated as a maze. I tried to break some of the spirit lines, but it seems to have a life of its own. It will restore the spirit lines that have been broken. I can't break it no matter what! "

"But that's not right. In the past three days, I've tried almost all the ways to break the game, but I can't do anything about it.

"But this is not right. For the past three days, I have tried almost all the points, but there is nothing I can do."

"Master, I think you have encountered a restriction that can change."

"Yes, there are several types of restrictions. There is a restriction whose formation eye is constantly changing. As long as Master can't grasp it and break its formation eye, then the position of the formation eye will immediately change. All the previous efforts will be in vain. But on the other hand, as long as Master can grasp the formation eye in one go, then all the other obstacles will immediately disappear."

"Then what should I do?" Zhan Chen looked at the overlapping spirit lines on the restriction and thought that there were at least a thousand of them. Only one of them was the formation eye of this restriction. He had to find it in one go. The difficulty was self-evident.

"Hehe, Master, you still have me."

"Could it be that you have a way?" Zhan Chen cried out in surprise.

"That's right. I've followed my previous master, Taoist Priest You Long, and I've seen countless restrictions being broken. All restrictions are set up according to a certain pattern, so this restriction is no exception. Although the formation eye can move, it also has a pattern."

"Then what is the pattern of this restriction?"

"Master, do you see that there are a few places on this restriction that are different from the others? There are a lot of spirit lines entangled together."

Zhan Chen took a closer look and found that there were more than a dozen bright spots on the restriction wrapped around the cauldron. It was because there were many spirit lines intersecting in these spots.

"Master, although I don't know the pattern of the spiritual formation set up by this master, I know that the formation eye is definitely changing at these intersecting spirit lines."

A bright light flashed in Zhan Chen's eyes and he said, "If it is only limited to these ten spots, then there is a way. As long as I adopt the stupid method of waiting for the rabbit to come to me, I will always concentrate on one spot to break it. If I am sincere, I will definitely have a chance to succeed!"

Without hesitation, Zhan Chen picked a formation eye and concentrated on attacking it. After paying the price of more than twenty failures, he finally heard a crisp "ding" sound. At this moment, all the spirit lines quickly melted like the first snow under the scorching sun.

The cauldron also took off its grey coat, revealing its true appearance. It was an orange-red cauldron that looked like fire.

"It's done!" Zhan Chen was ecstatic and was waiting to take a closer look.

Suddenly, the cauldron let out a clear "chirp", like the cry of a phoenix. Then, it broke free from Zhan Chen's hand and flew into the air. It floated in the middle of the cultivation room and refused to come down.

Zhan Chen was shocked by the abnormality in front of him and opened his mouth wide. He stared at the cauldron above his head and couldn't react for a moment.

"Master, be careful!" Frightened Boy suddenly shouted.

However, his warning was too late. The cauldron in the air suddenly soared with a bright flame, so bright that one couldn't open their eyes. Then, Zhan Chen felt a huge force coming at him and his body was thrown into the air. He fell heavily on the wall and felt as if all the bones in his body had fallen apart. He struggled to get up and continued to look at the cauldron in the air.

The light gradually faded and the cauldron continued to chirp as it ran amok in the cultivation room. It seemed to be full of spirituality.

He tried to chase after it but the strange thing was that even with his cultivation of beginner martial venerable, he couldn't touch it even if he used all his strength.

At this moment, he heard Frightened Boy shout, "Master, don't rush. Wait for it to stabilize. I have a way!"

"Okay!" Zhan Chen nodded and listened to Frightened Boy's suggestion. He stopped in his tracks and stayed in a corner, quietly watching the cauldron.

As expected, the cauldron seemed to be a little tired after running around for a while. It stopped on the table at the side and remained motionless, but it was still shining.

At this moment, Frightened Boy said, "Congratulations, Master. This cauldron is obviously ownerless now. Now, you should carefully approach the cauldron. Remember to approach it slowly and don't alarm it. When you get close, spray your blood on it and it will recognize you as its master."

Zhan Chen was delighted and said, "Boy, if this succeeds, I will remember your great merit!"

Therefore, he followed Frightened Boy's instructions and took small steps towards the cauldron. Sure enough, the cauldron didn't fly up again.

When he was within three meters of the incense cauldron, Zhan Chen's eyes widened and he bit his tongue. He forced out a mouthful of blood and spat it at the cauldron.

When the cauldron saw that the blood was about to fly over, it hurriedly got up. However, it was too late and it was sprayed head-on.

When the blood was sprayed on the surface of the cauldron, it sank deep into it. Then, the cauldron stopped struggling and became gentle. It sent waves of friendly messages to Zhan Chen, like a baby calling for its parents.

At this moment, Zhan Chen felt that he had established a strange connection with the cauldron. It was as if it had become a part of him. He knew that he had finally subdued it, so he went forward happily and wanted to hold it in his hands to take a closer look.

But at this moment, a golden light shot out from the cauldron and went straight to the center of Zhan Chen's eyebrows. Before he could react, it had already entered his mind.

Zhan Chen only felt a buzzing sound in his mind and a lot of information appeared. He couldn't help but close his eyes and carefully digest it.

After a long time, he seemed to wake up and slowly opened his eyes. He held the cauldron and carefully tasted it.

At this moment, it had lost all of its strange phenomena and was obediently staying in Zhan Chen's palm, motionless. It was only the size of a palm. Its whole body was red and copper, and its surface was carved with golden phoenixes. There were as many as sixteen of them, and each of them was vivid and lifelike. One could even see every feather on their bodies clearly. These golden phoenixes were entangled and playing with each other, which was very endearing.

The cauldron's lid was densely covered with many small air vents, and it was also inlaid with all kinds of unknown gems. They were colorful and exquisite.

Zhan Chen carefully stroked the patterns on the cauldron. He loved it so much that he couldn't put it down, as if he was taking care of his own child. He could still clearly feel the heat coming from the cauldron in his palm, as if there was a ball of fire burning continuously in the cauldron.

Seeing how infatuated Zhan Chen was, Frightened Boy couldn't help but ask anxiously, "How is it, Master? Tell me what cauldron you got?"

Zhan Chen seemed to be reminiscing as he said, "So this cauldron is called the 'Nine Revolutions Phoenix Cauldron'. It's a ninth-grade top-grade cauldron. It was forged by a Daoist Shang Qing using a feather of the immortal beast Fire Phoenix as the main material, supplemented with countless other precious materials. It is said that it can refine the Nine Revolutions Immortal Pill."

"Tsk tsk, what a great treasure! I really have nothing to say about Master's luck! "Frightened Boy exclaimed.

Zhan Chen also asked in surprise, "What do you mean?"

"Master, in the past, the cauldron that the original Master used was only a ninth-grade mid-grade cauldron. I didn't expect Master to obtain this ninth-grade top-grade cauldron when you were only a Revered Martial Artist. It will definitely be a great help in the future! Also, this cauldron is very suitable for a low-level warrior like Master. "

"What's so special about this cauldron?" Zhan Chen seemed to hear the hidden meaning in the boy's words.

Sure enough, the boy continued to say, "The special thing about this cauldron is that its main material is actually a feather of a Fire Phoenix!"

"What kind of demonic beast is this Fire Phoenix? It sounds very powerful."
