Chapter 1196 The Abnormal Response Of The Demonic Soul Cauldron

"Oh really?" Rocky asked with his eyebrows raised in surprise.

"Matriarch, are you really going to tell him?" The elders and advanced ordinary spiritual beings of the Phoenix Master Clan, as well as Felicia and Erica, were also shocked. They didn't understand why the matriarch had changed her mind and why she was planning to tell Rocky the truth.

"Well, I think he can do something that not even we can do. So it might not be a bad thing to let him know the truth," explained the matriarch. Then she turned to Rocky and said, "Prince Crimson, follow me." With that said, she left without a backward glance, leaving the others with disbelief still written on their faces.

When she was gone, their watchful eyes followed Rocky instead, but he soon left to follow the matriarch.

Not long after, they stopped at the gate of a sacrificial hall not far from the nest of the legendary guardian beast.

As he approached the sacrificial hall, Rocky could clearly feel a powerful demonic aura coming from it, which was very similar to the aura emitted by the mutated spirit manipulators and the Ice Phoenix Queen.

"Where are we?" Rocky asked as he spun around and cast a curious look at his surroundings.

"This sacrificial hall is one of the forbidden areas of our Phoenix Master Clan. No other members are allowed to enter here, except for me and several elders. But today, I will make an exception for you." As the matriarch finished speaking, she walked into the hall and gestured for Rocky to follow her.

Rocky felt an overwhelming demonic aura rush towards him as soon as he stepped foot inside, and he could not help but scrunch his nose in discomfort. He looked around a little to see where it could be coming from, but the hall was as bereft as the day it was built. There was nothing but a black and cyan cauldron, which came up almost to his chest, placed on the central platform. He didn't know what material it was made of, but it gave him an ominous feeling. The evil aura that he had been feeling since earlier seemed to be coming from the cauldron.

As he gave it a closer look, he realized that the cauldron and the evil aura felt vaguely familiar, as if he had encountered it before. More than that, he felt strangely attracted to the cauldron, which inexplicably made him want to get closer to it.

"This cauldron is called the Demonic Soul Cauldron. It was used to suppress the soul of the mos

started shaking violently, and demonic light flashed and sparked around its surface.

The evil power of the Holy Dragon Bead in Rocky's body came out almost at the same time, and the evil light radiated in all directions. It set off the demonic light emitted from the cauldron, similar to the way a powder keg could explode with a single spark.

The next moment, a streak of demonic light shot out from the cauldron with a loud rumbling sound. It vaulted off the ceiling, breaking the roof in the process and lighting up the sky.

The whole hall seemed to shake and tremble as if it was a living thing shaking in fear.

As the demonic light that rushed out of the hall flew outside, it exploded like fireworks that lit up the evening sky, and surely, everyone in the Phoenix Cloud Mountain could see it. The members of the Phoenix Master Clan who saw this stopped in their tracks to admire the view, thinking that something momentous had happened.

The matriarch, who was standing behind Rocky, was also taken off guard by this development. She didn't expect that Rocky could cause such a violent reaction from the cauldron. Why did it respond to him in such a way?

It had never reacted this way, ever. Even when it was brought back to the Phoenix Master Clan, there had been no abnormal movements. It had always been like an ordinary cauldron, except for the astonishing demonic aura and the forceful opening of it not long ago. Therefore, it was the first time that the matriarch had seen it react this way. What a shock! And to think that a mere human was the one who caused such an abnormal response!
