Volume's end: A companion spirit treasure (33)

Beyond the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, amidst towering peaks that pierce the clouds.

The trio of Wu Xian, Wu Ji, and Wu Luo also saw the azure Azure Dragon and the towering pillar.

"Is that the Sea-Calming Cauldron)?"

Upon seeing the [Sea-Calming Cauldron] for the first time Wu Luo asked with such doubt.

Wu Luo could sense the power of the towering pillar, but its shape seemed somewhat different from the legendary one.

Wu Xian was the only one of the three who had seen the [Sea-Calming Cauldron] with his own eyes, so Wu Luo cast a puzzled look at him.

"That's the Sea-Calming Cauldron, but it's not the Sea-Calming Cauldron we know anymore."

After a brief silence, Wu Xian revealed a look of amazement.

"This is the choice made by the Celestial Person; they recast the Sea-Calming Cauldron!"

Wu Ji sensing something, but still somewhat puzzled.

What exactly just happened?

"And what is that long, blue snake?"

"If I'm not mistaken, he seems to be Divine Lord Meng Zhang?"

Having once fought against the God of the East Sea, Wu Ji had a deep impression of the four great lords under the command of the God of the East Sea.

However, the long blue snake before him was somewhat Great Unity from the Divine Lord Meng Zhang he remembered.

Even assuming it really was Divine Lord Meng Zhang, why would that Celestial Person being give him the Elixir of Immortality?

There shouldn't be any relationship between the two of them, right?

"That long serpent is not Divine Lord Meng Zhang."

Just then, Wu Xian finally revealed the truth he had deduced.

"I previously revealed some clues about the Cauldron of Immortality Cauldron to divert the attention of the other great shamans."

"Wu Peng and his six siblings were the first to find the Immortality Cauldron and attempted to refine the Elixir of Immortality. Divine Lord Meng Zhang, was one of the key ingredients."

After a slight pause, Wu Xian continued speaking under the astonished gazes of Wu Ji and Wu Luo.

"Now that I think about it, I wonder when the Elixir of Immortality that Wu Peng and the others refined fell into the hands of that Celestial Person."

"That Celestial Person used their own methods to complete it, which is why we are in this situation now."

Upon hearing this, Wu Ji deepened.

"Then what about this Sea-Calming Cauldron)?"

Wu Xian gently tapped his staff and Path of Qi.

"The Divine Lord Meng Zhang you see now is merely the embodiment of the will of the Sea-Calming Cauldron."

"That Celestial Person separated the Sea-Calming Cauldron from the Kunwu, and the Kunwu transformed into the Heavenly Deity Meng Zhang..."

Upon hearing Wu Xian's words, Wu Luo suddenly scoffed and interrupted him.

"You're too naive. Do you think that Celestial Person merely separated the will of the Sea-Calming Cauldron?"

"That guy clearly wants to seize the initiative!"

"Now, besides that long worm, who else can use the Sea-Calming Cauldron?"

"That Sea-Calming Cauldron was originally a divine artifact of our Great Xia Dynasty, but now it has inexplicably become the treasure of a long snake."

"Moreover, that long worm consumed Elixir of Immortality, which means that our Great Xia may have lost one of the Nine Cauldrons forever!"

Before Wu Xian could refute, Wu Luo pointed out the crux of the problem even more sharply.

"If our previous goal was to reclaim the Sea-Calming Cauldron, then from now on we can only beg that serpent for help."

Boom!

Accompanied by a loud clap of thunder.

The Azure Dragon transformed into a deity with a dragon's head and a human body, appearing on Flying Peak.

In the hands of this dragon-headed, human-bodied deity, the now-shrunken Sea-Calming Divine Treasure was being held.

Are you getting used to this body?

Looking at Kunwu with great interest, Li Boyang could feel the abundant vitality emanating from his body.

That was precisely the "perfect body" that Li Boyang had always pursued.

Its surging vitality is like the endless waves of the sea, seemingly having reached the level of "Path of Essence Perfection".

No, according to the normal classification of essence, energy, and spirit.

Ordinary creatures could never reach this level in their entire lives.

Whether Vajra Indestructibility, Myriad Transformations, or flawless, it's all just like this...

All of this is a characteristic brought about by [immortality], merely a byproduct of this body.

In other words, if Kunwu were willing to switch to cultivating the Method of the Celestial Person, he could easily reach the "Realm of Return to the Void on a physical level.

Or to be more precise, Kunwu's current [immortality] is actually an imperfect "Realm of Return to the Void.

"It feels a little unfamiliar, but I've never felt so good before."

Kunwu gently waved the Sea-Calming Divine Treasure in his hand, his voice slightly low.

Because of the fusion of the Primordial Spirit and the Cognitive Spirit, Kunwu had near-perfect control over this body and didn't need to adapt to it at all.

"What I'm more curious about now is exactly where I am in the world?"

Turning his head to Sea-Calming Divine Treasure in his hand, Kunwu could feel the connection to it.

There is no doubt that the Azure Dragon's body, reconstructed with the [Elixir of Immortality], is Kunwu's current physical form.

However, the recast Sea-Calming Cauldron can also be considered part of the Kunwu.

"Well, if I had to say, this Sea-Calming Divine Treasure should be considered your innate spiritual treasure."

Li Boyang unconsciously stroked his chin as he first proposed the concept of "symbiotic spiritual treasures".

"It's like your blood, your bones; it's a part of who you are."

"While you won't necessarily die without it, you will certainly become incomplete."

"Since this is the first time I've done this, I'm not sure if there will be any side effects."

"However, you are now truly immortal, so even if there are any aftereffects, they won't have a significant impact on you."

Nodding as if he understood, Kunwu added another fact that Li Boyang hadn't mentioned.

"Most importantly, I now control the Sea-Calming Cauldron."

"When and how to quell the floods in the East Sea East Sea is entirely up to me."

Having control in one's own hands and handing over the [Sea-Calming Cauldron] to the group of great shamans of the Great Xia are two completely different outcomes.

With his immortality, Kunwu can now go anywhere in the world.

Even the legendary "Nether Spring" was nothing more than a slightly peculiar water source to him.

Simply put, what you were worried about won't happen.

As he said this, Kunwu turned his gaze to Xiluo beside him.

"See? I told you I would never lie to you, didn't I? This solves the problem perfectly, doesn't it?"

Li Boyang waved to Xiluo with a smile, his words once again successfully angering her.

"You little brat, if you already had a solution, you should have told me sooner!"

"You always like to hide things, I hate your pretentious act!"

Seeing Xiluo scratch Li Boyang's face with her claws, Kunwu couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.

[Wu Yao, is this the future you see?]
