Chapter 143: Chapter 143: If Heaven Has Emotions, Heaven Will Also Grow Old

During the conversation between Zhongshan and Tianxingzi, below the square, the demon and four disciples of the Shadow Sect silently watched the large array in front of them.

After half an hour of waiting, suddenly, there was a flicker at the edge of the Tai Dan Sect's large array in the distance, and the first demon avatar came out, seeming to be covered in a lot of blood.

The demon avatar ignored the large array and, the moment it appeared, shot straight towards the demon's main body.

"Whoosh..."

The avatar merged with the main body, leaving a pool of blood on the ground. Then, another demon avatar appeared, and more and more demons that had previously entered rushed out, quickly merging with the main body.

Zhongshan had been watching all along, and finally, at this moment, Zhongshan understood why he had that strange feeling before. Main body, avatars? Main body, hidden forms? It seemed somewhat similar to his own abilities, except he had a hundred avatars, while he only had one hidden form. And Zhongshan was clear that he could only have one; it couldn't be more.

Just then, at the entrance of the large array, a group of demon avatars finally brought out their purpose for this time.

It was a cauldron, ten zhang high, which is about thirty-three meters, a giant cauldron almost ten stories high. The cauldron had eight wind holes, faintly revealing a hint of firelight inside. It seemed like this cauldron was burning constantly, with flames inside.

The cauldron was bronze in color, with a large number of ancient and majestic runes floating above it. The space around it was twisted and distorted, appearing slightly unreal. But Zhongshan, over the years, gradually understood the reason for the distortion of the space around the giant cauldron. It wasn't space distortion, it was spiritual energy. A cauldron that could absorb spiritual energy on its own?

Zhongshan stared wide-eyed as the cauldron had four large characters engraved on its lid in a circle.

Heaven—Earth—Profound—Yellow!

"The Tai Dan Sect's Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Cauldron really exists, it's not just a legend," Tianxingzi said in a deep voice.

"Boom..."

The Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Cauldron was lifted out of the large array and placed on the ground. Then, the demon avatars quickly rushed towards the demon's main body and merged with it in an instant.

"Take the cauldron, let's go back to the sect," the demon uttered in a sharp and eerie voice.

"Yes," the four disciples of the Shadow Sect immediately responded.

Then, one of them quickly took out a piece of cloth, covered the ten-zhang-high cauldron, and did some decorations. In an instant, the cauldron was wrapped up like a small mountain.

"Let's go..."

The demon said and flew off. The four disciples of the Shadow Sect immediately lifted the cauldron and rushed away in one direction.

"Why don't they just store the cauldron in a storage bracelet?" Zhongshan asked in confusion.

"The Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Cauldron already has its own spiritual essence, just like a person has a soul. It can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth with each breath, so it can't be stored in a dead space like a storage bracelet," Tianxingzi explained with narrowed eyes as he watched the direction the demon was heading.

"Okay, Master, when will we take action?" Zhongshan asked again.

"Twenty-five days later, during the centennial celebration of the Shadow Sect. At that time, the disciples of the Shadow Sect will definitely gather there," Tianxingzi said, his eyes narrowed, his tone chilling.

As soon as the seven giant light balls appeared, they suddenly connected, forming a large ladle-shaped area that shone with endless brilliance.

For a moment, the distant Ghost Shadow Sect's grand formation was completely enveloped in a bright light, forming a gigantic crystalline wall-like structure. Zhongshan could see numerous flying swords rushing out from within the Ghost Shadow Sect.

"Dang! Dang! Dang..."

After a series of collisions, countless flying swords were forcefully repelled back by the crystalline wall, making echoing sounds as they returned.

As the grand formation of the Ghost Shadow Sect withdrew, almost everyone sensed the impending danger. With the formation gone, the disciples of the Ghost Shadow Sect frantically flew outward. However, the crystalline wall-like grand formation prevented them from escaping even a bit, rebounding them all back.

Zhongshan sighed as he watched this scene unfold. The Big Dipper Formation? Trapping a sect?

In the midst of Zhongshan's astonishment, the voice of Tianxingzi suddenly emanated from the massive ball of light in the sky.

"Open Yang Wuqu Star, with my lifespan, connect the seven stars, summon star fire, burn the demonic evils," Tianxingzi bellowed.

"No~~~" Xuanxinzi's panicked voice echoed from afar.

"Elder Brother~~~" Another voice, filled with sorrow, came from another direction, belonging to Gusangzi.

While Zhongshan took a deep breath, observing carefully, Mud Bodhisattva beside him sighed deeply with closed eyes.

"Bastard~~~" A sudden furious shout erupted from within the Ghost Shadow Sect.

A figure clad in black robes suddenly shot out, darting straight towards the crystalline-like wall of the Big Dipper Formation.

"Bang!~~~"

That section of the crystalline wall shattered abruptly, but in the blink of an eye, the shattered part reformed into an even thicker crystalline barrier.

At this moment, Zhongshan didn't look towards the figure in black, but instead, he widened his eyes and looked upwards.

Apart from the brightness here, the distant starry sky suddenly darkened, leaving only seven huge stars emitting dazzling light.

The Big Dipper, it was the Big Dipper. Zhongshan wasn't sure about the scenes elsewhere, but he knew that in the sky he could see, only the Big Dipper remained.

The Big Dipper above seemed to resonate with the Big Dipper Formation below, and suddenly, a vast and intense light descended from the stars, directly onto the Big Dipper Formation in front of them.

The brightness of the formation surged, making it impossible for Zhongshan to see anything inside. It was too bright, like the sun, filled with dazzling light.

Harnessing the power of the Big Dipper stars? Zhongshan widened his eyes. What kind of grand formation was this? A battle formation? A static formation? Harnessing the power of the stars? Shifting constellations?

"Ah~~~ Ah~~~ Ah~~~"

From within the intensely illuminated grand formation, countless screams suddenly resounded. The sounds were so mournful, as if the people inside were enduring the burning of countless heavenly fires, experiencing endless pain and misery.
