Flames burned heaven and earth; a bronze cauldron swallowed the nine provinces.
A moment ago, Xuanjing Immortal Monarch and the True Lords and True Disciples of the Eastern Heaven Daoist Sect had held every advantage, with victory all but theirs. In the blink of an eye, they fell into the Mountain River Sun-Moon Cauldron and became Longevity Immortal Monarch's captives.
