267 The World Suppressed by the Nine Prefectures Cauldrons
He Chuan didn’t know what was happening outside.
It was because he had found a place that led to space in the secret room of Tongtun Chanyu.
As if he had passed through the turbulence of time and space, he arrived in deep and bottomless space.
The shape of this space was somewhat special. It was like a huge sword that soared into the sky.
The entire space seemed to have been pierced by a sharp sword.
According to Meng Ao’s memories, powerful beings fought each other in ancient times. A true God used his sword to break open the void and connect to another world. The energy from the other world was then transferred into this world.
Some humans, after being contaminated by this special energy, had become the so-called godfiend.
This energy affected not only the godfiends, but also many humans in the Central Plains. From then on, their cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, and their realms climbed rapidly.
However, back then, with the suppression of the ancient powerful beings, humans appeared very small.
Later, humans gradually rose to power and began the cultivation era.
After the passage of time, the nine prefectures cauldrons were shattered, and the so-called spiritual energy in the world disappeared. Therefore, no one could ever spy on the mortal realm.
In fact, saint cultivators were very weak in the past, no different from rank-nine grandmasters now.
The entire place should be a space left behind by the ancient war.
Perhaps it was just a casual strike, and the group of powerful beings did not take it seriously back then.
There were countless bronze fragments scattered here, and countless energies from other worlds entered this place and were suppressed by the scattered bronze fragments.
However, because the nine prefectures cauldrons were not complete, there was a chance that the energy would leak out.
It turned out that the nine prefectures cauldrons suppressed the energy. Back then, it had also suppressed the so-called World God.
For some unknown reason, the nine prefectures cauldrons exploded and turned into countless fragments. The World God must have escaped by now.
“It’s really a time of troubles. The godfiends that appeared are unimportant, but there are still who-knows Young Lord and even powerful and evil World Gods. According to the clues left behind, one can cultivate in this world, but the danger is everywhere!” He Chuan muttered to himself.
Fortunately, he had found clues about the godfiendss in the books, and now he had found more secrets by following the clues.
He couldn’t stop after cultivating.
The gods and demons recorded in the “Anecdote of Qizhou” were actually just humans who had been contaminated with powerful energy. Some of them had their goal in the nine prefectures cauldrons.
However, from the clues he had obtained, real demons and ghosts in this world ran amuck in the desolation land. Because of the ancient enchantment, they could not come to the Central Plains for the time being.
However, with the appearance of the World God, many things changed. No one knew what would happen in the future.
No wonder the Zhou Dynasty had hidden such a huge formation. It turned out the hidden formation was not used to deal with wars but to prevent the gods and demons from making a comeback.
This nine prefectures cauldron was rumored to be a treasure left behind by Emperor Yu.
And when the so-called strong cultivators of the godfiend race and the Central Plains were suppressing the World God, they accidentally discovered the secret. Some people were bewitched by the remnant thoughts left behind by the World God because they pursued power and could not forget the nine prefectures cauldrons.
After destroying the cauldrons of the nine prefectures, everyone would be able to start cultivating, and their realms would not be limited to saint cultivators.
The White Tiger Grand Sage Meng Ao was one of those who had been bewitched.
They had even entered this place before, and through hard work, they had successfully released a World God.
No wonder he had been so arrogant and confident He Chuan would not dare to kill him.
However, he didn’t expect He Chuan to ignore him and directly kill him with the soul-searching technique. Because He Chuan was a reincarnated person with the system, he wouldn’t be frightened by threats at all.
After this world’s level had dropped, the powerful cultivators of the Central Plains had left this place one after another. They went to places with slightly more energy, such as the freezing cold sea, Luzhou of Northern Kulu, and the endless desert, in search of new cultivation methods.
This meant that these experts had already given up on the Central Plains.
After the incident with the nine prefectures cauldrons, experts from all over the world began to go crazy and wanted to fight for the cauldrons.
At that time, countless saint cultivators and mortal realm cultivators had fallen in the war. This caused the combat power of the entire world to decline again.
There should still be many secrets that have not been uncovered. He Chuan even suspected some people had used reincarnation to set up a bigger chess game.
He Chuan looked at the nine prefectures cauldron fragment in front of him. It contained an indescribable amount of energy.
If he were to absorb it directly, he would probably be able to break through to an even higher realm.
Only by breaking through to the mortal realm could he face the World God.
It was a pity that the nine prefectures cauldrons could only be used once, and it was also incomplete, missing a few fragments.
He could probably break through to a higher level if he could collect all the fragments.
However, He Chuan didn’t care. He had the system, so he had enough opportunities this time.
He let out a breath of turbid air and began to scan the bronze fragments on the ground with his consciousness.
As a world-suppressing treasure, the nine Cauldrons could gather the chaotic force and help him improve his cultivation. It might even help him break through to the mortal realm.
“Forget it. Let’s not think about unnecessary things for now. It’s better to prepare to break through my own strength first!” It was useless to think too much, so he might as well increase his strength first.
He didn’t know how powerful the mysterious World God was, and a sixth-rank mortal realm wasn’t safe.
It was the most important thing to improve one’s strength.
He Chuan sat in the middle, converting the foreign world’s energy absorbed by the bronze fragment for his own use.
It was as if he was basking in the warm sun, his entire body feeling warm as if all the cold in this place had been driven away.
After an unknown amount of time, an incomparably tyrannical force spread out from his body. The true essence in his body continuously gathered in his dantian, gradually turning into a golden pill.
In the earth realm, the human soul would condense into the golden pill and break away from the realm of martial arts to become a true cultivator.
These monastic cultivators could use the power of heaven and earth to fight, and their souls would temporarily leave their bodies.
They could even snatch other people’s bodies. They could preserve their souls and not die at the moment of life and death.
The earth realm was more powerful than the mortal realm. It was even more vast than the saint cultivators.
The gap between a cultivator and a martial arts practitioner was immediately revealed.
The key point between the two was that martial arts used true energy to launch attacks, while cultivators used the power of heaven and earth to fight.
They used the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to strengthen themselves.
After becoming a true cultivator, it might be a bit exaggerated to travel a thousand miles in a flash with ordinary swords and true essence. Still, He Chuan could now cross a distance of several dozen miles in the blink of an eye.
He Chuan put away the bronze fragment and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered he had not checked in today.
“This place is definitely special enough. If I check in here, there should be some good things,” He Chuan thought to himself.
“Check-in!” He Chuan ordered the system in his mind.
The system’s warning tone rang out.
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully checking in. You are rewarded with one chaos pill and one swordsmanship technique!]
The rewards in special places were different indeed. There were two things at once, which was very rare compared to the previous rewards.
He was indeed very lucky today.
Not only did he obtain most of the bronze fragments of the nine prefectures cauldron, but he also obtained two other treasures.
He immediately focused his mind to check the information on the two items.
