Chapter 1038 - Tushan Scripture, Nine Province Cauldron, Bronze Heavenly Hall’s Move
Chapter 1038 Tushan Scripture, Nine Province Cauldron, Bronze Heavenly Hall’s Move
“After I’ve dealt with Bronze Heavenly Hall,” Chu Kuangren said.
The others gasped when they heard him.
Bronze Heavenly Hall?
To the Yokai Tribe, that name symbolized absolute and almost invincible power. Going up against the hall would always end up badly.
However, Chu Kuangren made it sound like he could destroy it whenever he wanted.
Was he arrogant or confident?
Everyone was baffled.
“Wuqing, send a challenge letter to Bronze Heavenly Hall on my behalf. I will be there in seven days. Other than the higher-ups, those who surrender will be spared,” Chu Kuangren said.
“A challenge letter?”
“Yes. The more who knows about this, the better.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Since he had decided to develop Firmament Star, he had to make a name for the planet first. Violet Gold Galaxy was no longer enough to hold his ambitions, so he sought to occupy the entire Jade Emperor Galaxy one day.
Therefore, it would be a good idea to inform the local forces beforehand. It would also hasten his process of taking over the galaxy in the future.
Soon after, Gu Wuqing ‘sent’ the challenge letter out. The way he sent the message was to locate the affiliated civilizations of Bronze Heavenly Hall and eliminate them in the flashiest way possible.
It did not take long before more than half of the civilizations and orthodoxies in Jade Emperor Galaxy learned of the challenge.
They all knew that Chu Kuangren was going to challenge the Bronze Heavenly Hall.
However, Chu Kuangren’s name remained alien to the locals, and they were curious about the challenge.
“Who is this Chu Kuangren? Challenging the Bronze Heavenly Hall himself.”
“I don’t know, but if he is bold enough to send the challenge, he must be at least an Immortal. It would be suicide otherwise.”
“Tsk tsk, Bronze Heavenly Hall’s rapid development in recent years has attracted many jealous parties lately. They’ve become an eyesore to many.”
“What a fool. I heard the Bronze Heavenly Hall Ruler is almost at the Earthen Immortal Realm. Does this Chu Kuangren have what it takes to challenge him?”
Back at Heavenly Yokai Planet, the Fox Tribe Forefather came to Chu Kuangren and showed him certain items — a pam-sized rusty cauldron and a white jade scroll.
“My lord, Yue Yue’s father left these items behind. Can you please pass it to her?” the Fox Tribe Forefather said.
Chu Kuangren was a little curious. “What are these?”
“We don’t know either, but her father once said that these two items, especially this white jade scroll, can only be given to her when she reaches the Daoist Celestial Realm.
“Unfortunately, she left without telling us before I could give them to her. I have to trouble you for the favor.”
The items piqued Chu Kuangren’s curiosity.
Hence, he used the Omniscient Spirit to analyze it, and the result was surprising.
Both the items had a long history behind them.
The white jade scroll contained an Arch-grade Immortal’s Scripture that only paled a little compared to the Prime Clarity Spiritual Scripture.
It was known as the Tushan Scripture!
‘Tushan Scripture… Tushan… One of the tribes of the Nine-Tailed Fox from ancient immortal times. Does it mean Lil Fox and her father originated from this lineage?’ Chu Kuangren thought.
“As for this little cauldron…”
Chu Kuangren could not help but look surprised as he looked at the rusty cauldron in his palm. The history behind that little cauldron was as rich as or richer than the Tushan Scripture.
It was known as one of the Nine Province Cauldrons.
There was an ancient rumor in the history of humans in the Immortal World about many great Human Emperors, and one of them used to collect all the refined metal throughout the galaxies to forge them into nine cauldrons that would strengthen the luck and fate of humans.
That particular Human Emperor was known as Sovereign Yu.
The nine cauldrons he forged were known as the Great Yu’s Nine Cauldrons. Since the land of humans was divided into nine provinces, with each cauldron representing the luck of each province, it was also known as the Nine Provinces Cauldron.
The palm-sized rusty cauldron in Chu Kuangren’s hand was one of the Nine Provinces Cauldron, the famous Humanity Fortune Treasure of the Nine Provinces Cauldron whose name once shook the Immortal World!
It was the Jizhou Cauldron!
“Tushan, Nine Provinces Cauldron… Apparently, Sovereign Yu once married a Nine-Tailed Fox of Tushan. And now with the scripture’s and the cauldron’s appearances? This is interesting,” Chu Kuangren said with a smile.
He did not plan to gain insights into the Tushan Scripture.
After all, he already had the Jade Pool Immortal’s Scripture and Prime Clarity Spiritual Scripture, and it was enough for him. Moreover, it was meant for Lil Fox.
As for the Jizhou Cauldron, the item was badly damaged. It had lost its rumored mightiness and trying to repair it would not be easy.
Chu Kuangren had decent weaponsmithing skills, but not just skills were required to repair the Nine Provinces Cauldron.
It was the Humanity Fortune Treasure, and the conditions to repair it must be extremely demanding. It had to be repaired with a massive amount of human luck.
“I, as the Human King of Firmament Star, possess the luck of humans. As long as I continue to expand my empire, I might be able to repair this,” Chu Kuangren mumbled.
He had gotten himself another excuse to develop Firmament Star.
In the vast and boundless universe, a huge floating palace with Daoist patterns swirling around it cruised among the stars.
Outside the palace were millions of warships and countless cultivators.
Inside the palace, a man with a scroll in his hand grinned. “Great. Bronze Heavenly Hall has reigned over Jade Emperor Galaxy for so many years. This is the first time someone has openly challenged us.”
The man was the grand marshal of Bronze Heavenly Hall, second only to the Immortal of Bronze Heavenly Hall.
“Tell the troops to prepare themselves. If this man so much as comes close to the hall, kill him immediately!” the Bronze Grand Marshal said coldly.
A ball of ember ignited above his palm and burned the scroll into cinders.
“Grand Marshal, I volunteer to bring the troops forth to eliminate this person, Heavenly Yokai Planet, and the survivors of the Gu clan!” one of the generals stepped forward and said.
The Grand Marshal waved his hand. “This person is coming here in seven days. Let’s wait here. We’ll just wait seven days since it would take more or less the same time for our troops to reach there. If he doesn’t show up in seven days, we will then send our troops there.
“Besides, His Majesty is still in closed-door meditation, trying to reach the Earthen Immortal Realm. It is now a critical moment, so it’s not a good time for him to be distracted. We should concentrate on guarding him. Who knows? Maybe this is just a trick to distract us,” the Grand Marshal said after some thoughts.
His words made sense, and all the other generals agreed to it.
“You’re right, Grand Marshal.”
“That’s right. We almost fell for this person’s trap.”
“The Grand Marshal is experienced and skilled in war tactics. Chu Kuangren’s little trick won’t work in front of the Grand Marshal. No matter his plans or schemes, it would be useless.”
After a bunch of flattering comments, the generals went off to carry out their duties.
The troops were distributed evenly around the premises, which placed the hall under heavy security. They were informed that Chu Kuangren was at least an Immortal and that he was stronger than the Gu clan’s Forefather.
No matter how confident the Grand Marshal was, he had to take it seriously. At least he was not that arrogant to not prepare for Chu Kuangren’s arrival.
Soon, seven days passed.
All major factions of Jade Emperor Galaxy gathered outside Bronze Heavenly Hall, hoping to witness the arrival of Chu Kuangren.
Everyone wanted to see who exactly Chu Kuangren was, the man bold enough to challenge the Bronze Heavenly Hall, and how powerful he really was.
