Chapter 169 Taking the Cauldron
"Hmph, with his mere few worms, he dares to covet the Void Heaven Cauldron? He's just delusional."

The bearded man had a disdainful look on his face.

Despite saying that, the bearded man still leaped up the steps.

Others followed.

As they climbed higher, the chill emanating from the Cold Li Terrace became increasingly terrifying. Eventually, even the magical light shield couldn't protect them, reaching a level that could damage their internal organs.

Qin Sheng himself cultivated the fire-attribute technique Tianyuan Mirror Scripture, and also practiced the Burning Technique. He also devoured the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, and had the newly cultivated Golden Light Divine Flame. Naturally, this bit of cold air could not harm him.

However, he still took out the Fire-Resistant Pearl to withstand the cold.

After the red light from the Fire Pearl shone, the surroundings immediately warmed up.

This caused everyone except for Barbarian Beard to look over in surprise.

"Oh my, the Blazing Fire Pearl! This is a treasure that only an eighth-level Blazing Fire Dragon can nurture. It is immune to all fires in the world. It can even withstand the nascent fire of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Your master has such a grand gesture!"

When Qing Yi saw the Fire Pearl floating above Qin Sheng's fingertips, he couldn't help but click his tongue.

If he had some doubts about what the bearded man said before, he now believes him completely.

Ji Yin also looked over, a flash of greed in his eyes, because this Fire Pearl was the nemesis of his Heavenly Capital Corpse Fire.

If a cultivator of the same level were to wield the Fire Pearl, his Heavenly Capital Corpse Fire, cultivated over a hundred years, would be rendered useless.

In other words.

If he obtains the Fire Pearl and incorporates it into his natal magic weapon, the power of his Heavenly Capital Corpse Fire will increase significantly.

At this moment, whether it was because of Qin Sheng's previous rudeness or his greed for the Fire Pearl, he would not let Qin Sheng go after the cauldron was taken.

"Senior Qingyi, you are too kind. My master once commented on the Nascent Soul cultivators in the Chaotic Star Sea and mentioned Senior Qingyi. He said that Senior Qingyi was able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage as a rogue cultivator, and his strength was definitely among the top in the same level."

Qin Sheng had no idea what Ji Yin was thinking, and instead politely started chatting with Qing Yi.

"Haha, this old man cannot bear such praise. I am a poor rogue cultivator with meager resources. Speaking of demonic cultivators, among those of the same level, my master and Brother Wu are the most powerful. My master possesses the most recognized offensive magic weapon in the Chaotic Star Sea, and Brother Wu possesses the Chaotic Heaven Corpse Fire. I, Qing, am ashamed to say that I cannot reach their level."

Qingyi was still the same cunning old fox.

His words softened the expression on Ji Yin's face, which had been grim after hearing Qin Sheng's words, and a smug smile appeared on his lips.

After all, the Eight Gates Golden Light Mirror is the most powerful weapon in the Chaotic Star Sea, that's common knowledge and well-known.

The fact that the other party compared him to the Golden Light Demon naturally made him look good.

While they were talking, they had already climbed onto Han Li's platform and arrived at the huge blue stone gate.

"Alright, you two old folks, stop nagging and go inside."

Barbarian Beard glanced at them, and his body suddenly swelled to several meters in size, covered with fish-scale-like golden armor plates. He actually moved the blue stone gate with brute force alone.

Just then, they saw Wan Tianming driving the Golden Silkworm to retrieve the Void Heaven Cauldron.

However, he only had six golden silkworms, and they were only level two, which was achieved by forcibly stimulating their potential with the Azure Flame.

Any one of Qin Sheng's golden silkworms, if used to pull the cauldron, would be stronger than these six golden silkworms.

"Ignore them and continue taking the cauldron." After seeing Qin Sheng and the others, Wan Tianming released a white dragon that was several meters long. Tian Wuzi also released a strange giant tortoise of similar size to block their way.

"Hahahaha. Crazy old woman's Cold Dragon and Tianwuzi's Li Turtle, you've both been brought here."

Upon seeing the two spirit beasts, Barbarian Beard showed no sign of rushing to attack. Instead, he patted his storage bag, and a large metal chair appeared. Barbarian Beard then sat down.

This left Qingyi and Jiyin, who were about to make their move, looking puzzled. Jiyin, with a somewhat unpleasant expression, questioned, "Brother Man, what do you mean by this?"

"Why aren't you guys helping him? These worms they brought are about to die."

The bearded man gave an irrelevant answer.

Upon hearing this, the two noticed that the golden silkworms brought by Wan Tianming were visibly weakening. Then, all the golden silk threads spit out by the six golden silkworms snapped, and they collapsed, barely alive.

Three of them even plunged directly into the deep pit of light blue ice flames, turning into shattered frost.

"Haha, it's collapsed." Seeing this, Qing Yi clapped his hands happily and pointed at Wan Tianming and the others.

"Hahaha"

Ji Yin also laughed loudly, looking up at the sky.

"Haha, you surnamed Wan, you've finally met your match. Now, are you leaving on your own, or am I going to kick you out?"

The bearded man made no attempt to hide his mocking laughter.

Faced with the three men's mockery, Wan Tianming's expression became extremely ugly at this moment.

Regardless of the circumstances, he never imagined that the Golden Silkworm, which he had painstakingly searched for at great cost and with the full power of the Wanfa Sect, would not only be of no use but would also end up being ridiculed by the few demonic thieves in front of him.

"Sect Master Wan..." Mu Tengzi and Tian Wuzi were clearly not expected to see this outcome, and they both looked at Wan Tianming.

Qin Sheng observed the reactions of these cultivators from both the righteous and demonic paths, secretly finding it amusing. This Wan Tianming, the righteous sect leader of the Myriad Laws Sect, a dignified mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, was quite pathetic. He had gone to great lengths to acquire the Golden Silkworm and the Azure Flower, only to end up with nothing to show for it.

However, this person was cautious.

Qin Sheng released his divine sense and indeed found a rat-like spirit beast at the foot of Hanlitai.

This beast must be the fossil beast, able to completely merge with the stone and conceal its own aura. If I hadn't searched for it intentionally, I probably would have easily overlooked it.

No wonder none of the Barbarian Beard and his men noticed it.

Qin Sheng said this to himself.

At this moment, Ji Yin also spoke up, "Sect Master Wan, according to the prior agreement, we will take turns to retrieve the treasure. We must not disgrace the prestige of the Wanfa Sect."

"Hmph, let's go."

In the end, Wan Tianming swallowed his anger and planned to intervene after these evil scoundrels had taken the cauldron.

After Wan Tianming and the others left, under the urging of Ji Yin and Man Hu Zi, Han Lao Mo had no choice but to release the Blood Jade Spider.

Then, he glanced at Qin Sheng without leaving a trace. Qin Sheng turned away from him, walked directly to the center of the Hanli Terrace, and sent a telepathic message with his back to him: "You can rest assured to take the cauldron. If anyone attacks you, I, Qin, will protect you. However, you should still be careful. The faster you pull the cauldron, the faster you will die."

Hearing this, Old Man Han felt a little comforted.
