NovelEnglishLu Heng's sigh, tinged with a hint of compassion.
Fanzuiqianshou, who has been imprisoned for an unimaginably long period of thirty million years, never realized the fact of his own demise until the very last moment when his last trace of obsession vanished. Throughout, he harbored hope and eagerly awaited Lu Heng's return to set him free.
However, the freedom he yearned for had long ceased to exist…
Such an experience, even the enemies of the World of Eight Desolations would find it deserving of the term "tragic."
Lu Heng's side, the Dragon Emperor gazed transfixedly at the vanishing depiction of Fanzuiqianshou, with an indescribable sense of awe shaking her innermost being, rendering her momentarily at a loss for words.
The experience of this supreme powerhouse is truly tragic. However, the very "culprit" responsible for all this now stands by her side, leaving her hesitant to pass judgment, thus she can only remain silent.
After Lu Heng sighed, he cast his gaze upon the diminutive cauldron left behind once Fanzuiqianshou vanished.
A palm-sized bronze cauldron hovers amidst the core of the moon, brimming with abundant vital essence.
In the three tens of millions of years during which Fanzuiqianshou was incessantly slain by the heavenly thunder, all the divine treasures and weapons adorning the invincible being have been completely eradicated, unable to endure within such a thick and terrifying thunder pool.
However, after the passage of thirty million years, in a situation where all traces of Fanzuiqianshou have been completely obliterated, this cauldron is able to endure and remain.
It even remains intact and unscathed.
Such astonishing phenomenon exposed the terrifying nature of this cauldron.
Lu Heng extended his hand, and the palm-sized bronze cauldron flew directly into his grasp, allowing him to peruse it as he pleased.
Upon the petite cauldron's body, numerous imprints of flora and fauna are branded. The ancient characters at the bottom imprint reveal the origin of this cauldron.
"The Yong State Cauldron…"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLu Heng calmly perused the bronze cauldron in his hand, long accustomed to the presence of the nine cauldrons.
After all, this cauldron was the third of the nine cauldrons he had encountered, and he could no longer be astonished by it.
By Lu Heng's side, Dragon Emperor Xiu Ya hesitated for words, but eventually chuckled and spoke up, saying, "Uh… Brother Lu, could it be that this cauldron is none other than the legendary Nine Cauldrons?"
"Indeed, it should be," Lu Heng responded, "the Yong State Cauldron. It also bears the imprints of numerous flora and fauna from the Celestial Desolation Realm. The cauldron contains vast and majestic life essence, yet it has been scarcely utilized."
"Just that this cauldron cannot be utilized by the beings within the Celestial Desolation Realm."
Saying so, Lu Heng was not hesitant and directly tossed the Yong State Cauldron to the Dragon Emperor, saying, "You can try to activate and utilize it."
As Lu Heng's words fell, the Dragon Emperor coincidentally received the small cauldron.
However, as soon as the Dragon Emperor grasped the small cauldron, even before she could establish a spiritual connection, this bronze cauldron, which was originally brimming with life essence, instantaneously became ordinary and lost all its supernatural qualities.
Even if Lu Heng and the Dragon Emperor scanned with their divine senses, they had to admit that the small cauldron before them was nothing but a shabby bronze cauldron.
The Yong State Cauldron, which was previously extraordinary and mystical, seemed to have no connection with it.
The Dragon Emperor, with a silent gaze, said, "The most cherished possession of the Celestial Desolation Realm, now ironically rejects the beings of the Celestial Desolation Realm…"
After a wordless silence lasting for several breaths, the Dragon Emperor handed the Yong State Cauldron to Lu Heng and said, "This cauldron, in the hands of Brother Lu, will serve an even greater purpose."
Lu Heng, without declining, accepted the Yong State Cauldron, and promptly stowed away the cauldron.
He looked around and said, "The emergence of the Yong State Cauldron at this moment is a trivial matter. What is more important to us is the whereabouts of the River Map and the Luo Book."
Lu Heng said, "The end of the Dragon Emperor's secret realm points to this place, but if the words spoken by Fanzuiqianshou are not amiss, the River Map and the Luo Book were already taken by me thirty million years ago."
"If even I don't know the whereabouts of the River Map and the Luo Book, then what meaning does it hold for us to follow the guidance and come to this place…"
Lu Heng, with a touch of helplessness, looked at the Dragon Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, it seems that this time we have made a fruitless journey."
The matter mentioned by Lu Heng is also a source of helplessness in the heart of the Dragon Emperor.
When Fanzuiqianshou mentioned the River Map and the Luo Book previously, she realized that her efforts were in vain.
Indeed, what Lu Heng and the others mentioned, the River Map and the Luo Book, are indeed hidden on Sanxian Island. After all, beyond the depths of the Dragon Emperor's realm lies the very sanctuary of the River Map and the Luo Book, which can be reached swiftly.
However, though the information is accurate, the person arrived late.
Moreover, they were delayed by a staggering three hundred million years…

Dragon Emperor hesitated, then ultimately looked towards Lu Heng and said, "Brother Lu, could it be that you are a being from the Starry Sky Tomb, not originating from the World of Eight Desolations?"
Throughout the journey, Lu Heng didn't deliberately conceal his true origin, so the Dragon Emperor easily deduced the matter.
Regarding this, Lu Heng nodded and said, "I am indeed someone who grew up on this neighboring planet. I was once a mere mortal, but it was through a fortuitous encounter that I obtained the River Map and the Luo Book… or perhaps I should say, I can no longer recall the events from three hundred million years ago."

"As for how I obtained the River Map and the Luo Book, as well as their current whereabouts… I have absolutely no recollection of these matters."

"Even the passage of thirty million years, I had no idea… I always thought that I had only left this planet a few decades ago."
In Lu Heng's sigh, there was a strong sense of melancholy.
As Dragon Emperor looked at Lu Heng in such a manner, she may not have personally experienced the pain of such a profound separation, but she understood that this was an emotion that even cultivators found difficult to ignore.
After hesitating for a few moments, she said, "But Brother Lu, you took away the River Map and the Luo Book back then. Now this place is empty, even the last remaining ancient entity is just a trace of past obsession… In such a desolate galaxy, without the River Map and the Luo Book, without any indication of departure, how can we return to the Celestial Desolation Realm?"
"The Starry Sky Tomb is vast and expansive, Brother Lu, your cultivation of Heavenly Thunder is unaffected and can continue normally within the galaxy, but Xiu Ya cannot,"
"Without the nourishment of spiritual energy, I cannot persist for many years and will completely lose my form and spirit… Just like this respected predecessor, Fanzuiqianshou, who, in silence, dissipated the last trace of spiritual energy and completely vanished into the void."
On the face of the Dragon Emperor, there was an expression full of concern and despair.
Lu Heng, on the other hand, silently watched her, momentarily unsure of how to offer words of comfort.
Indeed, the reason the Dragon Emperor could remain composed when she arrived at the Starry Sky Tomb was because she believed that here she would find the River Map and the Luo Book, or perhaps a way to depart.
However, upon arrival, the Dragon Emperor discovered that the treasure had long been taken away by someone thirty million years ago, leaving this place empty and desolate…
After a lingering exchange of gazes between the Dragon Emperor and Lu Heng, Lu Heng ultimately produced a small jade boat, about the size of a palm, and said, "Um… I have the precious treasure of the Human Emperor Palace, the Floating Light Boat, here. Once activated, it will immediately soar towards the Human Emperor Palace."
"The swift and ethereal Floating Light, which appears in this vast cosmic expanse, is capable of effortlessly surpassing the speed of light."
"We will board this solitary boat and head towards the outer realms, ensuring that we can return to the Human Emperor Palace and depart from the Starry Sky Tomb in the shortest possible time…"
Lu Heng said, "Perhaps we are lucky, as this place is not too far from the edge of the Starry Sky Tomb, isn't it?"
Lu Heng chuckled dryly and said, "As long as Your Majesty conserves spiritual energy and persists for as long as possible, we might be able to leave the Starry Sky Tomb before the depletion of spiritual energy…"
