Chapter 3942: Crushed Cauldron
Ling Han spat out a mouthful of blood, and his figure staggered slightly, but his feet did not stop at all.
He had just carved out a path of blood after much difficulty, so how could he give up halfway?
He used the Imminent Skyline, and his speed was extremely fast.
After throwing off his pursuers, Ling Han dove into a nest of ants.
He healed his injuries first, and spent seven days to finally recover completely. Being struck by a peak stage Core Formation Tier elite’s attack, it was already very fortunate that he didn’t die.
Ling Han took a deep breath, and began to refine the last bolt of lightning.
This power of lightning was very strange. There were actually two sub-elements, one of Life and one of Death.
This was the Life and Death Purple Lightning.
Ling Han enveloped it with the Celestial Cauldron and slowly refined it. Three days later, he had succeeded.
At this point, he had refined ten flashes of celestial light, and possessed ten flashes of divine light, reaching his limit.
Ling Han glanced over. He was still a sliver away from reaching the consummate level of Ten Cauldrons.
Then he would cultivate to consummate level and break through to the Core Formation Tier before leaving.
Ling Han roamed around the ant nest, and obtained some more Celestial medicines, Divine Metal, and even some divine substances. It could be said that he had gained a lot.
And just like that, he stayed patiently in the ant nest for three months.
Peak stage of Ten Cauldrons.
The tenth cauldron had already gained all three legs, and had reached the pinnacle. There was no way to improve it any further.
He could break through to the Core Formation Tier.
However, Ling Han hesitated.
This was because he still hadn’t found a way to fuse the nine flashes of divine light of lightning. If he broke through to the Core Formation Tier now, he would only be able to retain a single flash of divine light. The other divine lights would be like the Nine Cauldrons, turning into fertilizer and completely vanis.h.i.+ng.
The Core Formation Tier was divided into four stages. The first stage, which was the early stage of the Core Formation Tier, used one of the cauldrons as the core to nurture the Celestial Core, and the other cauldrons as nutrients. Finally, the Celestial Cauldrons all disappeared, forming a Celestial Core.
The second step was the middle stage of the Core Formation Tier, harvesting all the rare treasures in the world to increase the quality of the Celestial Core.
The third step was the late stage of the Core Formation Tier, inscribing patterns on the Celestial Core. The number was indefinite, but according to legends, the limit was Nine Patterns, and it was called the Nine Patterns Celestial Core.
Fourth step, the Core Formation Tier consummate level. In this process, the Celestial Core would slowly liquefy, and after completely liquefying, that would be the end of the entire Core Formation Tier.
Thus, if Ling Han were to break through now, there would only be one celestial light that could be retained from the celestial lights that he had painstakingly captured. Then what would he have sacrificed so much for?
Was there really no other way?
Furthermore, there was only one Celestial Cauldron left behind. With this as its core, the other Nine Cauldrons would only be reduced to nutrition. Wasn’t that too wasteful?
Ling Han sat down cross-legged. He cultivated the path of the strongest, so he was naturally unwilling to accept this.
He thought hard, and after three days, he came up with an extremely bold idea.
Wouldn’t all nine Celestial Cauldrons become nutrients?
Fine then. He would first fuse all ten Celestial Cauldrons together, turning them into a single cauldron, and use this as a core to nurture the Celestial Core. Then, just how strong would the Celestial Core be?
However, Ten Cauldrons was practically unprecedented, and he still wanted ten cauldrons to become one?
Ling Han seriously considered this possibility, because the Celestial Cauldron was the st.u.r.diest thing in his body, especially when he had cultivated the Celestial Cauldron sthat imitated the Primitive Celestial Gate. It was a good many times st.u.r.dier than Divine Metal of the same level.
What would allow him to shatter the fusion?
“I have to give it a try!”
Ling Han’s eyes lit up. This was the path of the strongest that he had seen. If he gave up without trying, he would not be satisfied.
He began to experiment, using all the methods that he could think of.
At the beginning, he naturally did not dare to be too aggressive, but a gentle method was completely useless. The Celestial Cauldron was too st.u.r.dy.
“I have to take the risk.”
“Without entering the tiger’s den, how can you get anything?”
“If you want to become the strongest, you have to walk the most dangerous path.”
Ling Han gritted his teeth, and decided to “make a move”.
He rammed the Celestial Cauldrons inside his body into each other. Since this was the st.u.r.diest, and neither external power nor his mystical power could damage it, he would just let them collide on their own. He did not believe that they would not break.
‘Come!’
He was a man of action, and immediately put this into action.
If others found out, they would definitely call him a lunatic.
Wasn’t he crazy?
Ten cauldrons was enough to create history. Perhaps, no one had ever reached this level in history. It was already strong enough, but Ling Han actually still wanted to shatter the Celestial Cauldrons and fuse the ten cauldrons into one?
Wasn’t this courting death?
Ling Han’s mind was calm, and he simply controlled his Celestial Cauldrons to collide,
collide, collide.
Weng, every time the Celestial Cauldrons collided, a terrifying wave would be released, causing his physical body to crack.
Ling Han took out the Celestial medicine and ingested it. He only maintained his vitality, and did not care about anything else.
Weng, weng, weng! Ling Han’s body seemed to have become the battlefield for the ten great Celestial Cauldrons. He bore the brunt of it, and was naturally the most unfortunate.
Ling Han was throwing up blood endlessly, and his skin had long since completely cracked open. Blood was gus.h.i.+ng out. Not only that, his bones and internal organs had all crumbled under the barrage of power, and his whole person was like a pool of mud, looking extremely
miserable.
However, his willpower was as firm as iron, and he continued to have the ten Celestial Cauldrons crash into each other.
These were all forged from imitations of the Primitive Celestial Gate, so their quality was equal. If they were to shatter, they would definitely shatter at the same time. There was no situation wherein one would shatter, and the other would not.
Nine was the pinnacle of heaven and earth. Thus, forging ten cauldrons had broken the
pinnacle of heaven and earth, and created a miracle. However, the manifestation of heaven and earth was all from one. Ling Han firmly believed that one was the beginning of heaven
and earth.
Thus, fusing the Celestial Cauldrons wasn’t just for the sake of fusing the divine lights. More importantly, he believed that fusing the ten cauldrons into one was the strongest.
Peng!
He rammed the Celestial Cauldrons in his body, as if he was committing suicide.
He was really on the line between life and death. It was all thanks to his incredibly tenacious willpower that he had not died all this while. This was a kind of unwillingness, and also a kind of obsession with becoming stronger. It was close to madness, and close to mania. Ling Han’s physical body was already completely incomplete, but his soul did not release even half a groan of pain. He only had one thought, and that was to shatter all the Celestial Cauldrons and fuse them back into one.
After all, he was only a Cauldron Forging Tier cultivator, so how could he withstand such expense? His life force was declining in a straight line, and he was on the verge of death. As long as his willpower relaxed just the slightest bit, he would definitely be consigned to
eternal d.a.m.nation.
Right at this moment, boom, it was as if heaven and earth had just opened. With a loud bang,
the ten Celestial Cauldrons all shattered.
Success!
Ling Han immediately focused all his attention, and began to reconstruct the Celestial
Cauldron.
This time, there was no repulsive force released by the other Celestial Cauldrons. The core of
the Celestial Cauldron rapidly formed.
Kuang!
However, a sudden clap of thunder rang out in the heaven and earth. Even if this was the Demon Abyss, so what? Dark clouds gathered densely, and thunder boomed violently, as if it wanted to tear apart the heaven and earth itself.
Previously, Ling Han had formed ten cauldrons, which was already enough to attract the hatred of the heaven and earth. Now that he had advanced further, merging the ten cauldrons into one, this should really be unprecedented. Perhaps, it would never happen again, and he would be targeted even more strongly by the heaven and earth.
A golden figure appeared in Ling Han’s mind. There was a golden saber in his hand, and he immediately slashed out at Ling Han.
“An!” Ling Han shouted the Six Figures of Truth loudly, but he shockingly discovered that after this shout, the golden figure actually did not weaken in the slightest.
