Chapter 1198 Qualification
As the Lord of Yaodu Prefecture began his search for Venerable Wutu, Chen Yang and Wu Min had already started researching the source of Venerable Wutu's energy.
Looking at the illusory substance before them, Wu Min said with a troubled expression, "If this were to help him break through, then this energy could have fused into the Nascent Soul and Marrow. But now, it seems there's no chance."
"Find some time and absorb all of this."
Chen Yang's eyes widened in shock as he looked at Wu Min. "Absorb this? I'm only at the fifth level of Hedan right now."
"Even if you were to absorb it, it would be you. The most important thing now is for you to recover your original realm."
If Wu Min could successfully recover, then the human race would have two ninth-level Hedan cultivators!
Seeing Chen Yang refuse his suggestion, Wu Min could only nod slowly and put away the ball of energy.
The news that energy accumulated over a thousand years of life was available would likely attract many contenders.
Moreover, this substance dissipated extremely quickly. Since the decision had been made, Wu Min immediately entered the space within the bronze cauldron.
Although Chen Yang did not enter, he could still sense the situation inside the bronze cauldron.
Chen Yang realized that it was as if he had created the world within the bronze cauldron, and he was perfectly aware of everything that happened inside.
Furthermore, he could make changes within the bronze cauldron with a single thought, though it consumed a significant amount of mental energy.
Just as Chen Yang was continuing to study the bronze cauldron, Jiang Taotian also arrived.
"Can I borrow your bronze cauldron for a moment?"
Facing Jiang Taotian's request, Chen Yang couldn't help but smile wryly. "May I ask what you need it for?"
Chen Yang knew very well that the seemingly unremarkable man before him had, with a single strike, killed a ninth-level Hedan cultivator who was in the midst of a breakthrough.
With just one sword!
Jiang Taotian took out the pills he had previously acquired and said, "I want to try and break through. My lifespan is running out, so I have to take some action."
"Your bronze cauldron is the main cauldron, stronger than the Sword Sect's. With its assistance, my chances of success will increase."
Earlier, in the chaotic space, Chen Yang had not hidden the bronze cauldron, as he intended to cultivate on the way.
Hearing this, Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, and then, with surprise, he exclaimed, "You know the origin of the bronze cauldron? The Sword Sect has one too?"
Chen Yang remembered that he had only absorbed some of them and had not collected the entire bronze cauldron!
"Hmm? You don't know? Then where did you get this thing?"
As soon as Jiang Taotian spoke, he quickly waved his hand. "Ahem, this is top-secret information, pretend I didn't ask."
Each bronze cauldron was an supreme existence, and behind them lay countless forces. Jiang Taotian understood that the more he knew, the less safe he would be.
Chen Yang could only explain Wu Min's situation of breaking through and absorbing energy.
"So that's how it is. It's fine, I won't go in and disturb him. Besides, if I entered your bronze cauldron, I probably wouldn't be able to break through."
Jiang Taotian did not explain the reason why he couldn't break through.
The two arrived at a corner of the ancient battlefield, and Chen Yang still inquired about the Sword Sect's bronze cauldron.
"After the last battle, that thing disappeared. Now, I suspect the Lord of Yaodu Prefecture took it."
"Of course, this is just my guess."
"The bronze cauldron is an object of suppression. Its most important function is to suppress luck and enhance luck."
"There are only a few individuals in the mortal realm who can manipulate luck."
"The Lord of Yaodu Prefecture is a genius. He knew how to use luck a long time ago, which is why he went to such lengths to destroy the Sword Sect."
As Jiang Taotian spoke his suspicions, Chen Yang realized that this Jiang Taotian seemed to know many secrets.
As Chen Yang brought out the bronze cauldron, a thin layer of crimson aura suddenly appeared around Jiang Taotian.
And around the bronze cauldron, some aura also appeared.
However, it was not crimson aura, but purple aura.
"Hmm? Such strong luck!" Jiang Taotian looked at Chen Yang in shock.
Seeing Chen Yang's confused gaze, Jiang Taotian then said, "Your luck is a rarity in a thousand years. Are you truly a martial artist from the human realm?"
The two had also talked a lot before taking action, and Jiang Taotian had learned of Chen Yang's origins.
"Of course."
"Is my luck strong?" Chen Yang had learned some techniques of luck from Qin Yi.
However, Chen Yang had prioritized learning divination techniques.
According to Qin Yi, although luck was tied to a person's foundation, it was ultimately ethereal.
Even Qin Yi had not been able to fully master the art of luck.
"Very strong. The Sword Sect's luck was also like this for a period of time."
"Moreover, the bronze cauldron not only fused with your luck, but because you are now the leader of the human race, the luck of the human race in the mortal realm is also mixed in."
"This thing's benefits outweigh its drawbacks. As long as you ensure the prosperity of the human race, your own luck will never decline."
As he spoke, Jiang Taotian also began his actions.
Jiang Taotian placed his hands on the bronze cauldron, and Chen Yang immediately felt a powerful aura impact the bronze cauldron.
However, this aura was not meant to strike the bronze cauldron but seemed to want to fuse with it.
When Chen Yang allowed the bronze cauldron to relax, Jiang Taotian's luck immediately entered it.
The originally crimson aura began to change.
"The art of merging luck. I haven't interacted with the human race for many years, and my luck has gradually detached from the human race's luck. However, with the bronze cauldron now, I can merge my luck."
"With the momentum of the human race, my luck will become even stronger, and the success rate of my breakthrough will also increase."
Chen Yang did not speak to disturb Jiang Taotian.
If Jiang Taotian could successfully break through, it would be a great service to the human race!
Under the enhancement of luck, Jiang Taotian immediately stabilized his mind.
For some unknown reason, the mortal realm's heavens and earth let out a buzzing vibration.
However, cultivators at the Hedan realm could not sense this vibration.
Only the supreme Hedan realm cultivators could sense this vibration!
The Lord of Yaodu Prefecture, who was searching for Venerable Wutu's whereabouts, frowned.
This direction!
It was the land of hope for the human race!
Were some of them about to break through to the supreme Hedan realm?
The Lord of Yaodu Prefecture immediately turned and headed towards the land of hope. The human race must not succeed!
Otherwise, they would have the qualifications to stand on equal footing with the other powers in the mortal realm.
This was not the original intention of the Lord of Yaodu Prefecture when he spared the human race!
He allowed the human race to develop only to let them indulge themselves. After dealing with the Barbarian race, Yaodu Prefecture would naturally annex the human race!
Chen Yang watched as the surrounding spiritual energy became increasingly violent. He immediately used a secret divination technique to conceal all the surrounding auras.
This shielded everything from others in the land of hope, but it did not shield Chen Shu.
As Chen Yang searched for Chen Shu and was about to investigate what was happening, a terrifying aura appeared above the land of hope.
