Chu Li was shocked. He watched as King An sat cross-legged in the ancient cauldron and closed his eyes to channel.
The ancient cauldron was over his head, making him feel like he was in a well.
Prince An's inner energy surged like a torrent, its speed was ten times faster than usual. In the blink of an eye, it suppressed the heterogeneous inner energy, causing it to shrink into a ball.
His surging inner energy flowed through his meridians faster and faster.
Chu Li raised his eyebrows and activated the Omniscient Mirror.
It was as if there were strands of golden hair floating in the cauldron, like a lingering mist. The strands of hair floated into the center of Prince An's brows, and his inner energy flowed faster and faster.
Chu Li activated the Omniscient Mirror again and vaguely saw an invisible force coming from the void. It was like fog or smoke. The ancient cauldron sucked it in like a whirlpool and turned it into golden strands of hair that gathered inside the ancient cauldron.
Chu Li knew that these strands of golden hair were spiritual energy that had entered the Primal Aperture between Prince An's brows, greatly increasing his spiritual energy, thus speeding up the activation of his inner energy.
Chu Li was shocked.
He had always been proud of his mental strength. The combination of the souls of two lifetimes had allowed his mental strength to far surpass that of an ordinary person. That was how he was able to successfully cultivate the Scripture of the Origin of Wisdom, the Omniscient Mirror, the Scripture of Life and Death, and the Art of White Tiger.
If he didn't have a strong mind, his aptitude wouldn't even be comparable to an ordinary person's, and it would be impossible for him to achieve what he had today.
He suddenly realized that the one and only advantage that he was so proud of, was actually possessed by King An as well. Naturally, he felt uncomfortable.
He quickly calmed himself down and frowned in deep thought.
With the help of the ancient cauldron, why was King An's spiritual energy weaker than his?
He suppressed his curiosity and quietly watched the ancient cauldron and King An.
Sitting inside the cauldron, King An's face quickly turned red as if he was drunk. His face revealed a pained expression. After holding on for an hour, he could no longer hold on and floated out of the ancient cauldron.
When he landed beside the ancient cauldron, his injuries were mostly healed. However, Chu Li discovered that the strange inner energy had not been destroyed. There was still a remnant of it. It grew rapidly.
Through these two hours of observation, Chu Li had discovered the secret behind it.
King An's Primal Aperture at the center of his brows was like a bottle. His spiritual energy was like a golden thread that floated in wisps, sparse and sparse. After entering the ancient cauldron, the golden threads drilled into the ancestral aperture, increasing the density of the golden threads.
The denser the golden threads were, the more headaches they had. It was already a miracle that King An managed to hold on for two hours.
King An exited the ancient cauldron. The golden threads in the ancestral aperture quickly dispersed and returned to their original density without any other changes.
This situation was similar to when he helped Xue Ling with her cultivation. He could increase the speed of his inner energy and the speed of cultivation, but he could not increase his mental strength.
The strangest thing was that this ancient cauldron could transform the power of the void into mental power. What was the power of the void? Could he convert it? What was the principle behind it?
He activated the Omniscient Mirror and looked inside and outside the cauldron.
The ancient cauldron was made of bronze, but there was a strange aura flowing within the bronze. This aura flowed within the bronze, drawing a strange symbol.
This reminded Chu Li of the human body. Inner energy flowed in the meridians, and this strange symbol was like the meridians of the ancient cauldron. The force flowed along the symbol, absorbing the energy in the void and transforming it into golden spiritual energy. It was stored in the ancient cauldron like water.
This strange symbol was the secret of the ancient cauldron.
This cauldron was built in a very mysterious way. If he did not have the Omniscient Mirror, it would be almost impossible for others to peek at it. When the ancient cauldron was cut open, nothing could be seen because the aura would overflow and the symbols wouldn't be tangible. It was merely constructed by aura.
Chu Li suddenly disappeared from the spot and appeared in the cultivation room, entering the ancient cauldron.
Immediately, threads of spiritual energy drilled into his mind. He visualized the Art of White Tiger Portrait in his mind. The Spirit Tiger leaped into his mind, and the power of the void surged. In the blink of an eye, it swallowed his body.
He could feel his body squeaking from being squeezed. One moment, he was squeezed into minced meat, the next moment, he was filled to the point of bursting. The cycle of being filled and squeezed repeatedly forged his body, and his flesh became stronger.
After about four hours, Chu Li realized that the sky was about to brighten. He reluctantly disappeared from the ancient cauldron and appeared in the bedroom. He took off his outer shirt and wore a bluish-white undershirt. He sat on the bed and felt the changes in his body.
After cultivating for four hours, he did not feel tired at all. His spiritual energy did not seem to be consumed at all. This cauldron was really magical.
No wonder King An could enter the Grandmaster's Boundary at the age of forty. With the help of this cauldron, it was only natural.
—
He stayed for another day. At night, while King An was away, he used the ancient cauldron to cultivate again. The effect of the Art of White Tiger Portrait became stronger, and his body became stronger.
The stronger the body, the more solid the foundation. Even if they were all in the Innate Mastery's Boundary, others would not be his match.
On the morning of the third day, he left the Imperial Residence of King An.
In these two days, he had figured out King An's actual situation, but he still could not find a way to kill him.
King An was in big trouble. The strange inner energy in his body was very strange. No matter how he tried to get rid of it, there was nothing he could do. He was a Grandmaster, and his inner energy was unusually pure. It was better than other Grandmasters, so no one could help him.
Chu Li let the horse trot on its own, and sat on the horse to study the symbol of the ancient cauldron.
He tried to visualize the talisman in his mind, but there was nothing unusual.
He originally thought that if he succeeded in visualizing it in his mind, his spiritual energy would be endless like his inner energy, and it would be endless.
Unfortunately, there was only disappointment when he visualized it.
He always felt that this could be a Taoist talisman? The Art of Talisman.
In the evening, he arrived at a small town — Golden Crow Town.
He had nothing on his mind, and he was not in a hurry to return. He leisurely entered the town under the sunset, found the best inn in the town, and asked for a small courtyard.
When the lanterns were first lit, he first went to the town to buy some cinnabar, and then went to the best restaurant in the town — Good Abundance Restaurant.
He sat by the window on the third floor, and looked down at the passersby. He occasionally took a sip of wine, and ate some dishes to go with it.
Some passersby were in a hurry, some were strolling leisurely, some had nothing to do, and some were happy. There were all kinds of people in the world, and Chu Li was fascinated.
Although he left the temple and stepped into the human world, he did not live a normal life.
He lived in the Imperial Residence, and usually stayed in the Glory's Will Courtyard to cultivate and study. He rarely went to the Sky Inn, and he did not go to the New Moon Brothel. The bustling Chong Ming Town seemed to have nothing to do with him.
All of his thoughts were focused on the pursuit of stronger martial arts and greater power. Although he had reached Rank 2, he felt that it was still not the time to enjoy it. King An and the Emperor were pressuring him from above, so he could not do as he pleased.
Most of the people he saw had martial arts. Even the stalls selling snacks on the streets below had martial arts. The prosperity of martial arts in the world could be seen.
His gaze focused, and three graceful and graceful women in lake green gowns floated over from the east. When they arrived in front of the restaurant, they looked up and entered.
The three women were wearing veils, and their footsteps were light. They walked slowly, and their faces could not be seen, but they were already beautiful, and it made people's imagination run wild.
They went up to the third floor, and sat at a table not far from Chu Li. The waiter warmly greeted them, and the woman who ordered the dishes had a mellow and gentle voice.
The people upstairs glanced at the three women from time to time. They were wearing veils, and they had to take them off when they ate. Everyone wanted to see their real faces, and whether they were beauties.
