The Eternal Supreme

Chapter 143: Refine the Demon Rabbit

Yunxiao’s face fell, as the attack of a Martial King was definitely not something he could resist. Without hesitation, he curled his fingers into a claw. The purple cauldron shrank rapidly and flew over to hover in front of him. Then, he frantically sent dozens of incantation seals into it. In just the blink of an eye, streams of five elements aura exploded out of the cauldron, spreading out like rings of light.

Bam!

In the next instant, Shi Ruida’s attack landed on the cauldron, and the treasure wailed. A shaft of green light shot out from the top of the cauldron into the sky; Zhou Chuan, in his python-form, took the opportunity and flew out of the vessel. But, he was already covered in blood, with a frightful look on his face.

Yunxiao was knocked flying back by the force coming through the cauldron. He was still standing, showing no signs of falling, but his Glazed Body had faded, and gashes began to crack open across his skin.

The Glazed Body, which was the first level of the Tyrant Body Tempering Technique, was breaking apart under the attack of a Martial King.

Shi Ruida was shocked. Although most parts of his full-power attack were dissolved by the cauldron, the remaining impact was not something a Martial Master could resist. But, he had no time to think further. Hurriedly, he reached out a hand to grab the cauldron. If they lost the treasure, they would have to face death even if they managed to escape today.

Bam!

To his surprise, as soon as his hand touched the cauldron, it was immediately repelled. Then, as if triggered by an external force, the vessel began to shake and expand rapidly.

“Trying to run away? Go back now!”

Just when Zhou Chuan thought he had escaped, he heard a cold voice. He looked up and saw Xiao Qingwang hovering in the sky over him, throwing a palm down at him. For a moment, it seemed the power of the whole sky was in the palm as it fell and grew larger in his eyes.

He turned pale as the tremendous force pushed him back down. He was falling toward the cauldron, and his eyes showed extreme fear and terror. But, there was nothing he could do other than roar and scream.

Meanwhile, the cauldron had turned extremely huge as Shi Ruida tried to take it by force, which allowed it to swallow Zhou Chuan and trap him once again.

The sight of Xiao Qingwang almost scared the wits out of Shi Ruida. Hastily, he turned and fled, abandoning Zhou Chuan.

Knowing that Zhou Chuan would not be able to come out of the cauldron for the time being, Xiao Qingwang went ahead to chase Shi Ruida. As he ran, he threw out an object, which spun toward his target with a great force like a weapon.

Bam!

The object fell on the ground in front of Shi Ruida. He gave it a quick glance and saw it was actually Pang Chengwen’s head, and it exploded into a puddle of a red and white mess as soon as it landed. That frightened him and sent a chill down his back. When he looked up, he saw that Xiao Qingwang was already not far ahead of him, walking over with a cold look in the eyes.

After Zhou Chuan fell into the cauldron, Yunxiao walked over as he took several medicinal pills in a row. Then, he began to send incantation seals into the purple vessel.

The Cauldron of Five Elements was refined by him, so he had no problem in using it. Soon, it began to crazily drain the surrounding natural Primordial Qi, converting them into streams of five-element energy and sending them inside its hollow space. Zhou Chuan was struggling frantically inside, but to no avail, and his strength was growing weaker and weaker.

Meanwhile, Luo Yunshang and Chen Dasheng walked over to Yunxiao. They sat down behind him to guard him while regulating their breaths and stabilizing their conditions. The dust was almost settled now, so both of them had not much to worry about. They were amazed by the fact that Yunxiao was able to seize the cauldron and use it in the battle. The Cauldron of Five Elements was a fifth-tier treasure, and even they both could hardly suppress it as Martial Lords. That really puzzled them.

The battle between Xiao Qingwang and Shi Ruida had entered a very dangerous situation. Although Xiao Qingwang was one star stronger, he had just finished a tough battle. He was a little tired, and that gave his opponent some room to fight back.

Luo Yunshang and Chen Dasheng could only watch nervously, because they were not strong enough to intervene in this level of fighting.

“A blessing from heaven, five elements become one, refine!”

Suddenly, Yunxiao’s eyes lit up as he murmured something. A huge incantation seal materialized between his palms, and he smashed it hard onto the cauldron. Affected by the power, the vessel burst with a bright purple light and spun rapidly in the air. Clearly, he was going to kill Zhou Chuan by refining him!

There was a look of terror on Luo Yunshang and Chen Dasheng’s faces. They guessed it must be a great torment for the man who was being refined alive inside the cauldron.

About half an hour later, the purple cauldron finally stopped. Its purple light was gone, and it fell from the sky, bringing up a cloud of dust when it slammed onto the ground with a thud. Yunxiao got up to his feet with a trace of joy in his eyes.

“Did you succeed, Young Master Yun?” Chen Dasheng asked carefully. He felt a palpitation as he looked at the purple cauldron.

Yunxiao smiled and said, “Yes.” He looked at the cauldron with a trace of nostalgia in his eyes as he walked over and gave it a gentle slap. The vessel’s top part spun slowly, revealing its interior in front of everyone.

As soon as Luo Yunshang gave its inside a look, she said with shock, “This…Where is Zhou?” There was not a man or a snake in the cauldron, but a blue medicinal pill that rolled restlessly, looking full of spirits.

Yunxiao pointed at the pill and said with a smile, “There he is.”

Chen Dasheng sucked in a cold breath and cried out, “You…You refined a man into a medicinal pill?”

Yunxiao explained while smiling, “No, I didn’t refine a man into a medicinal pill, but a demon. After taking the demonization pill, Zhou Chuan’s body was filled with the blood essence and soul of a demon snake, which made him no different from a demon beast. Moreover, he was cultivating a demonic cultivation technique, so he was no longer a human being in essence. Therefore, it is not something strange that he can be refined into a medicinal pill.”

Gulp!

They both swallowed at the same time. Although that sounded reasonable, they just could not accept that.

“This snake pill is a pure energy pill from which I’ve gotten rid of all the impurities. I’ll give it to Qingwang after he kills that Shi Ruida. If he’s lucky, there is a good chance that he can break through the barrier of the eight-stars level.”

Both of them turned pale on hearing that while Chen Dasheng covered his mouth with a hand as if he were about to vomit. “You…You want to give this pill to Qingwang? Aren’t you afraid he will kill you when he finds out?” he said in a trembling voice.

“Hehe!” Yunxiao’s eyes gleamed as he said, “How would he know if you two don’t tell him?”

Bam!

Just then, a loud noise was heard coming from the distance; the battle was concluded. Covered in bruises, Xiao Qingwang walked over and gave them a tired smile, “Fortunately, I didn’t disgrace my task!”

Yunxiao said, “Thank you, Qingwang! I have a pill here that can restore your strength and help you break through the barrier of the eight-stars level.”

“What!”

Xiao Qingwang was startled. He had been stuck at the peak of the eight-stars for over five years, and after he was seriously wounded, he had thought it was as far as he could go in this life. “Can the pill really do that?” he asked emotionally.

Yunxiao handed him the blue pill and said, “Just give it a try!”

He took the pill and gave it a quick glance before shoving it into his mouth and swallowing it. Suddenly, he saw the blank expression on Chen Dasheng and Luo Yunshang’s faces, so he asked while frowning, “Why are you looking at me like that? You want the pill as well? You can ask Young Master Yun to refine one for each of you when we get back.”

“Ah? No, no, no, no!” Chen Dasheng hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand. “No, I don’t want it!”

Luo Yunshang, on the other hand, turned pale and felt like throwing up, so she hastily turned around.

“What’s wrong with them?” Xiao Qingwang asked curiously.

“Nothing,” Yunxiao chuckled. “They’re just wounded and don’t feel well. Regulate your breaths, Qingwang, the medicinal strength will soon be released.”

Xiao Qingwang nodded, and he immediately felt a power spreading out in him. Without hesitation, he sat cross-legged down and began to control the power.

Glancing at the mess around them, Yunxiao said, “Let’s clean up this place. Otherwise, the Zhou family will soon find out that we did this.”

There was a deep look of worry in Chen Dasheng’s eyes as he said, “You are really daring! I can’t believe we’ve killed three people from the Zhou family now! This has brought us another sworn enemy, in addition to the Cheng family. I think we are the only ones who have offended two major aristocratic families in the whole Firecrow Empire at the same time!”

“Haha!” Yunxiao laughed, not looking worried at all. “Uncle Chen, you’re wrong. We didn’t offend them. They are the ones who offended us!”

“This…What’s the difference?” Chen Dasheng shook his head with a wry smile. He knew he could not judge Yunxiao with normal standards, so he just bowed his head and went ahead to clean up the battlefield.

Yunxiao chuckled and said in a low voice, “There’s a difference, of course! If we offend others, they can still live. But, when others offend us, they will die!”

Only Luo Yunshang, who was beside him, heard that. She paused for a moment, and then a worried look crept up her face as well. She sighed and began to clean up the battlefield. Since she had already boarded the ship, she could only sail through the journey with them. Besides, as long as that man was with them, she would not frown even if they were going to a mountain of blades or a sea of fire.

“Haha!” Just when the three of them had finished cleaning up the battlefield and removing all traces of fighting, Xiao Qingwang suddenly laughed as he jumped to his feet, then threw his head back and roared.

Luo Yunshang was startled at first, but when she heard the roar, she cried out happily, “Qingwang has broken through finally!”

After roaring for a while, Xiao Qingwang came in front of Yunxiao and the others. His face was red with excitement. “Not only have I broken through and become a nine-stars Martial King, but I’m completely healed as well!”

Both Luo Yunshang and Chen Dasheng had an envious look on their faces, especially Chen Dasheng, who was also suffering from the cold poison. “Congratulations, Qingwang!” he said in a voice thick with jealousy.

Xiao Qingwang laughed. “You don’t have to envy me. As long as you stay with Young Master Yun, you will be showered with benefits.” Suddenly, he arched an eyebrow and asked, “Right, where is that Zhou Chuan? He should be dead after falling into the cauldron, right?”
