Receiving the Creation Cauldron, Cihang undoubtedly owed Jiu Feng a karmic debt.

However, compared to the Creation Cauldron, Cihang was happy to accept this debt.

After his cultivation improved in the future, he would have opportunities to repay this karmic debt.

After bidding farewell to Jiu Feng, Cihang returned to his temporary dojo once more.

Originally, he had planned to leave directly, but the newly acquired Creation Cauldron had disrupted his original plan.

He intended to first acknowledge the Creation Cauldron as his master before leaving.

With one more spiritual treasure, he would have an additional layer of protection when traveling outside.

He had not forgotten the resentful gaze of the Demon Race Taiyi before he left.

Upon returning to his dojo, Cihang began to refine the Creation Cauldron.

Despite being prepared, the difficulty of refining an Innate Spiritual Treasure still exceeded Cihang's expectations.

It took a full hundred years for the Creation Cauldron to complete the initial master acknowledgment.

The Glazed Pure Vase was his natal spiritual treasure; it required no refining and acknowledged him as master from birth.

Even in that Quasi-Saint's memory, he only possessed one Innate Spiritual Treasure, which showed how poor his luck was.

This Creation Cauldron was arguably the first Innate Spiritual Treasure he had obtained.

However, while spiritual treasures were difficult to refine, their power was equally astonishing.

The Creation Cauldron contained thirty-six Innate Divine Restrictions, just one step away from reaching the level of a top-grade spiritual treasure.

Its origin was also extraordinary, having been formed from the fragmentation of a Chaos Spiritual Treasure.

The Creation Cauldron was not famous, but it originated from the same source as the supreme treasure, the Universe Cauldron.

It contained a Creation Holy Fire, imbued with supreme life and creation. While it could not reverse innate conditions, it could refine the original and return to its source.

The Universe Cauldron was a cauldron for forging artifacts, while the Creation Cauldron was a cauldron for alchemy. It contained a trace of the Law of Creation and the inheritance of the Dao of Alchemy.

Although the Creation Cauldron's grade was lower, it was a better fit for Cihang.

The Dao of Creation within it could accelerate his cultivation, and the Law of Alchemy could perfect his alchemy techniques.

Compared to his cultivation methods, Cihang's alchemy skills were very crude.

It was only because the Witch Race had never seen a powerful alchemist that they admired him so much.

In reality, his alchemy relied more on the power of the Law of Life to purify the essence of spiritual herbs and better utilize their effects.

With this Creation Cauldron, he could further perfect his Dao of Alchemy cultivation.

As for finding the Universe Cauldron to merge the two treasures, Cihang had a slight thought of it, but it was far beyond what he could achieve now.

"This time, I'm really leaving!"

Since he had already bid farewell to Jiu Feng, Cihang did not disturb her again. He took the spiritual treasure, transformed into a beam of light, and headed directly outside the tribal territory.

"Cihang, I hope the next time we meet, you will already be a Taiyi, or even a Grand Unity."

Unbeknownst to Cihang, Jiu Feng was watching him leave from the center of the tribal territory.

Jiu Feng felt a little regretful that Cihang did not join the Witch Race.

But she also knew that the Witch Race was not suitable for Cihang.

Returning to Cihang, after leaving the Witch Race, he did not intend to return to the South Sea.

Previously, it was because his cultivation was insufficient and his luck had been greatly damaged that he wanted to return to the South Sea to go into seclusion for a period.

But now, his cultivation had broken through to Golden Immortal, and his luck had greatly increased.

Although he could not act without restraint, he was not as cautious as before.

Although it was not comparable to the beginning of the world, there were still many opportunities in the Great Desolation.

His desire for rapid improvement could not be achieved by simple closed-door cultivation.

If he could obtain one or two opportunities, it would be better than ten thousand years of arduous cultivation.

It was an exaggeration to say that spiritual treasures were everywhere on Buzhou Mountain, but there were still many opportunities there.

Since he had come to the Buzhou Mountain range now, he naturally had to go to Buzhou Mountain.

His luck was greatly increasing now, and he should have good gains.

Cihang transformed into a beam of light and headed towards Buzhou Mountain.

He hadn't felt anything while at the Witch Race, but after leaving the Witch Race's territory, Cihang immediately noticed the difference.

In this Buzhou Mountain range, he encountered battles from time to time.

These included battles between the Witch and Demon races, as well as the Demon Race attacking rogue cultivators.

Just like his previous encounter, if he joined the Demon Race, it would be fine, but if he refused, the Demon Race's killing intent awaited him.

With Dao Ancestor Hongjun's integration with the Dao, the Witch and Demon races also began to expand their influence with all their might.

The current chaos was only the beginning, and the future would likely be even more chaotic.

This time, Cihang didn't rashly make a move. His journey was solely to seek opportunities and improve himself.

He could handle making enemies with one or two demons, but he didn't have the strength to oppose the entire Demon Race.

The battle he had with the Witch Race wasn't even against the Demon Race; he had merely offended a few demons from the Bifang lineage.

Even Bifang himself might not care about a minor cultivator like him.

Sometimes, being weak in cultivation was another form of protection.

It was precisely for this reason that he dared to attack those few demons, rather than acting impulsively without considering the consequences.

However, not looking for trouble doesn't mean trouble won't find you.

"Stop."

Suddenly, over a dozen streaks of light blocked Cihang's path, looking at him with ill intent.

"What is the meaning of this, fellow Daoists? Cihang believes he hasn't offended any of you!"

Cihang looked up and saw that there were three Golden Immortals and over a dozen Mysterious Immortal Peaks among them.

However, Cihang was certain that they were not from the Demon Race.

"I am Qing Lingzi, a rogue immortal from Kunlun!"

Only one cultivator, a mid-stage Golden Immortal, looked at Cihang proudly.

"Kunlun?"

Cihang's expression remained unchanged, but a cold aura emanated from him.

"That's right, we are indeed cultivators from Kunlun.

Cihang, you offended the Heavenly Venerable in Kunlun without cause. Although the Heavenly Venerable is magnanimous and doesn't hold it against you, we cannot tolerate it.

You can only blame yourself for being too arrogant!"

As Qing Lingzi spoke, killing intent was already evident.

"Indeed, the Heavenly Venerable's authority cannot be challenged. We must teach you a lesson."

"Why bother talking to him? Just attack."

"Hmph, daring to offend the Heavenly Venerable, you overestimate yourself."

The other cultivators also chimed in, filled with malice towards Cihang.

"Teach me a lesson? With just you lot, a bunch of rogue immortals not recognized by Kunlun?"

Cihang let out a mocking smile.

If it were his past self, he might have been a little fearful, but not anymore.

"Ah!"

"You're seeking death!"

"Kill!"

Cihang's attitude completely enraged these rogue cultivators, and they all unleashed their spiritual treasures, attacking Cihang.

"A rabble!"

"Boom, boom, boom!"

As Cihang moved his palms, nine hundred-foot-long azure dragons materialized and swept towards them, slaughtering several of them.

At the same time, he formed hand seals, and terrifying thunderclouds instantly gathered, covering everyone's heads.

"Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder, descend."

As Cihang spoke, five-colored divine thunder – gold, azure, black, crimson, and yellow – struck in response, falling upon the Kunlun rogue immortals.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

"Not good, it's actually lightning magic!"

"Ah!"

As the divine thunder struck, the rogue immortals instantly panicked, frantically using their spiritual treasures to defend themselves.

However, the Five Elements Creation Divine Thunder seemed endless, continuously bombarding their defenses.
