Chapter 696: Chapter 695 [Extinction Demon Cauldron]

[PS: The first update for today is delivered. If you find it enjoyable, please consider rewarding. Thank you!]

In the Ancient Martial World of Song Mountain, night had already fallen. Ye Tianchen, Tianshuang, and Dongfang Meng, all utilizing Qi Manipulation Flight, quickly left the area where the robed man had been slain. Besides Sha Wuji, Ye Tianchen had also killed the robed assassin, thus eliminating two of the ten seed assassins cultivated by the Blood Killing Organization.

"Where are we headed?" Dongfang Meng asked, looking at Tianshuang, as their direction seemed not to lead to the Huashan Sect.

"I know you want to go to the Huashan Sect to meet Senior Feng Qingyang, but going now would be suicide!" Tianshuang said indifferently.

"It seems you know something. Don’t you trust us yet?" Ye Tianchen looked at Tianshuang and asked.

Tianshuang looked at Ye Tianchen and Dongfang Meng. Truthfully, she did not expect them to save her, especially for the second time, in this merciless Ancient Martial World where one could fall at any moment. It was rare to have such kind-hearted friends, particularly since she had fought and competed with Dongfang Meng, never imagining that Dongfang Meng would save her at a critical moment.

"The people from the Blood Killing Organization are far more powerful than you can imagine. The seed assassins they’ve cultivated, whom you’ve slain, include the tenth-ranked Sha Wuji and the ninth-ranked robed man, the weakest two of the ten. This organization, hidden for more than ten years, has now emerged, presumably with substantial backing. What exactly that backing and their schemes are, remains unknown!" Tianshuang said while continuing to fly forward using Qi Manipulation.

"The Divine Calculation from Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect, a senior who can foretell past and present, can’t he calculate it?" Dongfang Meng asked in surprise.

"All I can tell you is that our grandmaster has calculated but failed to see..." Tianshuang stopped mid-sentence.

"Even Senior Divine Calculation can’t ascertain the depth of the Blood Killing Organization. This organization is terrifying!" Dongfang Meng said earnestly.

At that moment, Ye Tianchen was following Tianshuang and Dongfang Meng. He was silent, not thinking too much, just pondering. When the Evil Spirit Blood Drip from the robed man had lunged at him, he was fortified with "Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill," but with his current understanding of this absolute skill, he couldn’t have resisted just with his physical body. At that moment, a spell emerged in his mind while he stood mid-air, motionless, and murmured to himself, "Stand firm of character straight and true, circle arms in front of the chest, calm the Qi and gather the spirit, clear the heart and the appearance shall comply..."

This phrase, the opening line of Yijin Jing, represented a scripture. In those perilous circumstances, the phrase emerged in Ye Tianchen’s mind, and he silently recited it. Adhering to the profound spells, interpretations, and diagrams of this scripture, he unexpectedly produced miraculous effects. The Buddha sound he uttered completely transformed the Evil Spirit Blood Drip tearing through the robed man’s body, a turn of events not even Ye Tianchen had anticipated.

"It seems you know that people from the Blood Killing Organization are ambushing the way to the Huashan Sect. The Divine Calculation of the Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect indeed is powerful. I’d like a chance to meet him!" Ye Tianchen said, looking at Tianshuang.

Tianshuang glared at Ye Tianchen and, with a hint of disdain, said, "You think our grandmaster is someone you can just meet whenever you wish? He doesn’t casually make predictions for others."

"I believe he would be willing to meet me, I am confident!" Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

"Peacocking, wishful thinking!" Tianshuang made a face at Ye Tianchen.

"The people from the Blood Killing Organization are too powerful. It appears not only Sha Wuji and the robed man were deployed—most likely, other seed assassins have been sent as well. They seem determined to find the fragments of the Ancient Transmission Array." Dongfang Meng said worriedly.

"Back then, they assassinated Senior Qing Song, likely obtaining the first fragment of the Ancient Transmission Array. If it weren’t for the siege by all the major Ancient Martial Sects, they would have taken action earlier. Now that they reemerged and cultivated new assassins, they must have obtained substantial support. If the Extinction Demon Cauldron really is in the hands of the Blood Killing Organization, it would be a tremendous disaster for the entire Ancient Martial World..." Tianshuang also spoke with evident concern.

"What exactly is the Extinction Demon Cauldron?" Ye Tianchen finally asked.

When Ye Tianchen was suppressed by the Killing Intent Tripod of the black-robed Assassin, although the situation was extremely critical at that time, he defended himself with the "Vajra Invulnerability Divine Skill" while quickly grasping the essence of the "Vajra Divine Fist." Yet, he still heard the conversation between Tianshuang and Dongfang Meng at that time.

"The Extinction Demon Cauldron is a relic from the Ancient Times, one of the few restricted weapons. The Ancient Martial Sects once fought a fierce battle over the Extinction Demon Cauldron until it suddenly disappeared. I did not expect that it would end up in the hands of the Blood Killing Organization. It won’t be long before the Ancient Martial World faces a storm of bloodshed." Dongfang Meng shook her head and said.

"Restricted weapon? What is a restricted weapon?" Ye Tianchen continued to ask.

"The Earth was once a golden age of cultivation. Even those with Supreme Divine Powers have left, but they have left behind some legacies of Divine Arts and some weapons. In the Martial Arts Great World, these weapons are called treasures. Those with high cultivation levels usually refine their own treasures. A restricted weapon, however, is an exceptionally powerful treasure, capable of destroying heaven and earth but can only be used once or twice before turning to ash. It is used to slay invincible enemies. The Extinction Demon Cauldron is one of those restricted weapons left from the Ancient Times and has caused a major storm of bloodshed among the Ancient Martial Sects." Tianshuang explained.

Ye Tianchen furrowed his brows. Although he had just become a Martial Artist with the great fortune of the Yijin Jing legacy and with the life-saving help of Master Fang Zheng, he could maintain his cultivation realm without falling to the lowest level of martial cultivators. Yet, he had some understanding of the power of some sects within the Ancient Martial World. The elders of the Sword Control Sect, with their powerful swordsmanship, were beyond his competition; the Five Poison Sect’s Seven Sons, though not very strong individually, were formidable when together, making a fierce battle inevitable; as for the prowess of the Blood Killing Organization, Ye Tianchen had already experienced it. Despite having killed two of the ten seed Assassins from the "Sha Xue" organization, he dared not underestimate the strength of the Blood Killing Organization. Now, with potentially evil organizations holding restricted weapons like the Extinction Demon Cauldron, the situation was greatly troublesome, with crises closing in from all sides!

Sword Control Sect, Five Poison Sect, Blood Killing Organization, none of these were easy to provoke. But Ye Tianchen wasn’t someone to be trifled with either. It wasn’t that he didn’t consider these three powerful forces seriously, but his nature of respecting principles over people forged his unyielding and brave fighting spirit. No matter how strong the opponent, no matter how arrogant the sect, if you provoke him without reason, his response would still be a pair of iron fists.

"Let’s go!" Ye Tianchen thought for a moment and then said to Tianshuang and Dongfang Meng.

"Where to?" Dongfang Meng asked, puzzled.

"Sun Never Sets Mountain!" Ye Tianchen said indifferently.

"No way!" This time, Dongfang Meng and Tianshuang almost spoke in unison.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Dongfang Meng and Tianshuang, sensing that both women looked somewhat worried about the place "Sun Never Sets Mountain." Ye Tianchen naturally did not know about it, he just thought of a possibility that required them to act first for an advantage.

"Why not? If the Blood Killing Organization has really obtained the first piece of the Ancient Transmission Array Fragment, they will definitely look for the second fragment. Sun Never Sets Mountain is a place they will surely visit, and so must we. I must obtain the fragment of the Ancient Transmission Array!" Ye Tianchen spoke earnestly.

"You don’t know what kind of place that is, let alone us, even the Blood Killing Organization should think three times before going, and might even need the Extinction Demon Cauldron for escort," Dongfang Meng shook her head and said.

"With our current level of cultivation, going to Sun Never Sets Mountain means only one outcome, and that is to completely disappear from this world!" Tianshuang also shook her head and said.

"Is Sun Never Sets Mountain that terrifying? What exactly happened there?" Ye Tianchen furrowed his brows and asked.

"Let’s leave this place first. Huashan Sect is no longer an option. The people from Sword Control Sect somehow got wind that you were headed to Huashan Sect. I’m afraid the two elder-level masters sent to ambush you are already waiting there. As for the Five Poison Seven Sons, they are probably searching for your whereabouts too. Moreover, after you killed Sha Wuji and the black-robed assassin, the Blood Killing Organization must be furious. You’ve provoked three major forces all at once; that’s really impressive..." Tianshuang said in a strange tone.

"Let’s go, and on the way, we’ll tell you about Sun Never Sets Mountain," Dongfang Meng glanced at Ye Tianchen and said.

Ye Tianchen nodded. This place was indeed not a place to talk. The Blood Killing Organization was exceptionally powerful. That they could track them so quickly suggested that more experts might be on their way. Even though he had won against the black-robed person, he had sustained some damage to his arms, and needed some time to recover. The grievances with these three great forces could not be resolved anytime soon.

"Let me start by telling you about Sun Never Sets Mountain... Sun Never Sets Mountain existed even during the Ancient Times when Earth was a golden era of cultivation. Countless powerhouses and myriad races coexisted, whether humans, Demon Beasts, or the Ancient Alien Race, all were incredibly powerful. Even during that era filled with Great Divine Ability users, almost no one dared to go to Sun Never Sets Mountain..." Tianshuang explained, as if she had returned to the Ancient Times herself, her eyes filled with bewilderment and astonishment. (To be continued.
