Ling Xiao was lucky enough to subdue the Blue Demon Fire Bead and use it to activate the Obsidian Cauldron's cauldron soul, which made him ecstatic.
After communicating with the cauldron soul, Ling Xiao finally had a better understanding of this medicine cauldron, which made him even happier.
A Heaven Grade medicine cauldron could be called a Divine Artifact, and its function was truly immeasurable.
The cauldron soul explained that in addition to improving the purity and quality of pills, it could also store things, be it living or dead things.
This function was similar to an Interspatial Ring, but it was even more freakish than an Interspatial Ring. It was actually compatible with the functions of a spirit beast wrist guard, which meant that it had both the functions of an Interspatial Ring and a spirit beast wrist guard.
Ling Xiao dripped a drop of blood essence on it according to the cauldron soul's instructions, and the medicine cauldron completely belonged to Ling Xiao. He could now use its storage function.
Ling Xiao examined the inside of the medicine cauldron to see if there was a universe inside.
He thought that this Heaven Grade medicine cauldron would be like an Earth Sovereign Grade Interspatial Ring, storing a large number of treasures, but he found that he was wrong. There was nothing inside.
However, the storage space was very large, about ten thousand square meters.
Such a large storage space shocked Ling Xiao. It was equivalent to the capacity of nearly a thousand Interspatial Rings, and this space was also filled with non-elemental spiritual energy.
Ling Xiao finally understood why this medicine cauldron could store anything.
Since there was spiritual energy, it was not difficult for living things to survive here.
Originally, Ling Xiao thought that this medicine cauldron was quite freakish, but the real freakish function was yet to come.
The cauldron soul told Ling Xiao that what he saw was just the tip of the iceberg, and that the real universe could only be revealed after Ling Xiao reached the King Grade.
The cauldron soul also said that there were a large number of materials necessary for alchemy stored inside.
What were the necessary materials for alchemy?
It was nothing more than spirit herbs and Beast Cores. Since it could be stored inside the medicine cauldron and could only be opened by reaching the King Grade, it was obvious that those spirit herbs and Beast Cores were quite precious!
At the thought of this, Ling Xiao could not help but swallow his saliva.
If that was the case, then he wouldn't have to worry about finding Spiritual Herbs in the future. As for Beast Cores, it didn't matter. As long as he had enough strength, it would be easier to kill Spiritual Beasts.
However, the medicinal cauldron's function was not only this. It also had a miraculous function that made Ling Xiao grin from ear to ear.
This medicine cauldron could actually be used as an offensive weapon.
The cauldron soul said that the cauldron could be as big as ten mountains, or as small as a thumb.
Anyone could imagine that if the cauldron turned into a mountain and pressed down on someone, that person would probably be smashed into nothing, let alone ten mountain peaks. Wouldn't that mean that a city would be destroyed in front of him with a casual strike?
Upon hearing the Cauldron Soul's words, Ling Xiao was eager to try.
However, the cauldron soul's next words made Ling Xiao wilt.
Because the activation of the medicine cauldron was determined by his strength. To make the medicine cauldron as big as ten mountains, he would need to be at least at the Mystic Emperor Rank. He was only at the Spirit Master Rank, so the size of the medicine cauldron was indeed very limited.
"Forget it, let's see how big I can make it first!" Ling Xiao temporarily put aside the idea of alchemy and brought the Obsidian Cauldron out of the cave. According to the cauldron soul's words, he only needed to move his spiritual energy and thoughts over.
Following the cauldron soul's words, Ling Xiao gathered all the spiritual energy in his body on his palms and released it towards the medicine cauldron. At the same time, he used his mental energy to convey his thoughts.
"Hurry up and get bigger! Get bigger!" Ling Xiao's mouth was full of conviction.
Swoosh!
Sure enough, the medicine cauldron began to slowly expand, finally becoming the size of a house. It looked very magnificent.
"Tsk tsk … not bad, not bad. Let me test your power!" Ling Xiao looked at the big cauldron with satisfaction and clicked his tongue. He then used his spiritual energy to lift the medicine cauldron.
Unexpectedly, he found that the medicine cauldron was as heavy as ten thousand catties. He used all the spiritual energy in his body to barely lift it to the highest point.
"F * ck, it's bigger, and it's so much heavier!" Ling Xiao cursed unhappily and swung his arms with all his might.
Rumble!
The medicine cauldron was smashed into a tree a few meters away and flew into the distance with a shocking sound.
Immediately after, dozens of towering trees were directly knocked over by the medicine cauldron and crushed into powder. A ten meter long scar appeared in front of Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao's eyes widened as he looked at the destruction caused by the medicine cauldron. He couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
"Haha, good … great! If anyone dares to be arrogant in front of me again, I'll use the medicine cauldron to smash their balls out!" Ling Xiao laughed wildly.
But what made him slightly dissatisfied was that activating such a big medicine cauldron required too much spiritual energy.
As a result, he made the medicine cauldron slightly smaller until it was only the size of half a house. Although the power of smashing it was halved, the spiritual energy consumption was also reduced.
After repeating it a few times, Ling Xiao finally made the medicine cauldron return to its original size.
Ling Xiao was in a good mood after learning the secret of the medicine cauldron. Just as he was about to return to the cave to refine pills, he sensed a few people walking towards him.
The Fire Qilin and the Golden Wolf King became vigilant and retreated to Ling Xiao's side.
"Boss, there are humans coming over here," the Fire Qilin said to Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao nodded. "I know. You guys come back first."
After saying that, Ling Xiao put the Fire Qilin and the Golden Wolf King back into his spirit beast bracer.
These two spirit beasts were one of his trump cards. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he didn't want to expose them in front of others.
At that moment, a voice called out, "Captain, I heard that sound coming from over here."
Immediately after, a dozen or so figures walked out from the dense forest with rustling sounds.
These people were all wearing the same clothes, and each of them had a beautiful, blood-red pattern on their chests. It was clearly the symbol of a certain group.
The one in the lead was an extremely enchanting woman. This woman was around 30 years old, and other than her sexy satin that covered her important parts, everything else was exposed to the air. Her rosy white skin was extremely smooth and delicate, causing people to have the urge to caress it. Her proud and erect breasts were not any smaller than Yu Lieyan's, and were even larger. Her pair of charming eyes rippled with indescribable lust. At first glance, this woman was definitely not an ordinary woman from a good family.
Beside her were a dozen or so strong men, all of them above the age of thirty or forty. All of them had the aura of a wild man.
Every one of them was no weaker than a high level Mystic Cultivator. There were even three low level Spirit Masters and one middle level Spirit Master.
Ling Xiao looked at this group of people and thought to himself, "This lineup is really not weak!"
Back in Meteor City, the strongest mercenary group's Green Mercenary Group was only a high level Mystic Cultivator, but there was a Spirit Master here. No wonder they could directly enter the inner area of the mountain range.
With their strength, as long as they didn't go too deep, they wouldn't be a threat.
When the enchanting woman saw Ling Xiao, she was attracted by his handsome appearance. Moreover, Ling Xiao's upper body was bare. Her peach blossom eyes kept sizing up Ling Xiao's body.
Ling Xiao felt the woman's scorching gaze and for no reason, he hugged his chest and weakly said, "You … you are?"
Looking at him like this, it seemed that he was really afraid of being eaten alive by the woman.
"Hehe, little brother, why are you hugging your chest? It's not like I'm going to eat you, what are you afraid of?" The enchanting woman let out a bell-like laugh.
Ling Xiao rubbed his nose and laughed, "Big sister must be joking. This little brother's body only has a few taels of meat, there really isn't much to eat."
Although Ling Xiao liked beautiful women, and the woman in front of him was not bad looking and had a great figure, when he saw that she was surrounded by a large group of men and was dressed so coquettishly, he didn't need to guess to know that she was a flirtatious woman. He really didn't have much interest in this kind of woman.
"Brat, was it just you here?" A low level Spirit Level burly man stood up and asked Ling Xiao sternly.
Ling Xiao nodded and replied, "If you didn't see anyone else, I think I'm the only one here."
"Impossible, when I heard the fighting just now, you saw that the trees here were all crushed into pieces. There must be people or high level Spirit Beasts nearby." The burly man said in disbelief. He then stared at Ling Xiao and said coldly, "Brat, you dare to trick me?"
Ling Xiao spread his hands and said, "If you don't believe me, then forget it. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first."
Ling Xiao didn't want to get entangled any further and turned around to leave.
"Don't even think about leaving. Hurry up and tell me where the people here went, or you're dead." The burly man seemed to want to eat Ling Xiao up and blocked his way.
"Great White Shark, shut up!" The enchanting woman shouted in annoyance.
As a Middle Spirit Master, she could tell that Ling Xiao's strength was similar to hers. Although her subordinates were strong, they couldn't compare to this youth in front of her.
The burly man snorted coldly and retreated to the side.
The enchanting woman smiled tenderly and said, "May I ask if little brother is interested in joining our Bloody Clam Mercenary Group?
Big sister will give you the position of vice leader. "
"Leader, this brat hasn't even grown his hair yet. What qualifications does he have to be our vice leader?" The burly man from before said in annoyance.
Ling Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at the burly man, wanting to teach him a lesson.
However, he suppressed his impulse and said, "Big sister, I appreciate your good intentions. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first. See you later."
"Little brother, why are you in such a hurry to leave? I'll have someone roast some food here so you can chat with big sister for a bit." The enchanting woman seemed to be very interested in Ling Xiao and wrapped her body around Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao enjoyed the gentle fragrance and almost wanted to stay. But when he thought about how this woman might have had an affair with the dozen or so burly men behind him, he couldn't help but feel nauseous. He immediately struggled away from the enchanting woman and said, "Little brother really does have something important to do. I appreciate big sister's hospitality."
With that, Ling Xiao wanted to leave.
Who knew that the burly man from before would stop him again and say, "Insensible brat, it's your good fortune that our leader has taken a liking to you. If you don't know what's good for you, I'll skin you right now."
