Chapter 376: Nine Cauldrons Part Two (asking for monthly ticket)
The Jiangnan Cauldron was forged by gathering gold and iron from Jiangnan, and was tempered in the underground flame furnace used by the Murong family to forge swords. This time, it was forged at the foot of the sacred mountain in the Western Regions [Juxu Mountain], and gold and iron from the thirty-six tribes were also collected.

The south of the Yangtze River is a land of fish and rice, where the people live in abundance. To cast the tripod, people’s daily necessities, such as hoes and sickles, were used in the hope of obtaining good weather and the well-being of the people.

The wind in the Western Regions is fierce and rough, like a fierce north wind roaring on the cliffs.

To cast the tripod of the Western Regions, ordinary gold and iron objects cannot be used. Instead, thirty-six swords are used, symbolizing the sharpness of the Western Gengjin. This tripod is cast to represent bravery. Among the five elements, it dominates gold and fire, and is austere and sharp.

The Fire Kylin spits fire himself, and the Nine-Colored Divine Deer comes to help.

Li Guanyi stood in front of the cauldron.

The weapons used in the thousands of years of conquests and battles in the Western Regions were melted down and cast into tripods in the unique casting style of the Western Regions.

The tripod of Jiangnan is exquisite yet grand.

The tripod of the Western Regions is vast, ancient, and solemn.

One is round, one is square, one has delicate dark patterns, and one is strong and straight, all are different. When Li Guanyi was casting the tripod, the Jiuzhou Tripod in his body roared incessantly, representing the circulation of a generation of luck in the Western Regions, roaring, and finally, when the tripod was cast, it was replicated in the tripod.

Thus, a geomancy map formed by golden patterns appeared on the tripod with a simple and rough shape. The Western desert, oasis, mountains and rivers were all in it. There were faint patterns of auspicious clouds in the sky, and the nine-colored divine deer was hiding in it.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer suddenly felt that she had established a connection with this ancient tripod. She was stunned for a moment before she suddenly realized that this was the help that the Ancient Red Dragon had mentioned.

She felt as if she had established a connection with this world.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer was extremely puzzled. As soon as the Ancient Red Dragon met her, he said that he needed to borrow 800 years of her lifespan without any hesitation and without any courtesy.

So the usually good-tempered Nine-Colored Divine Deer became angry and fought with him, but what he saw today was that he did not need a lifespan of 800 years. Not only did he not need a lifespan of 800 years, but there were many benefits to it.

Strange, if it is such a good thing, why did Chilong say he would live 800 years?

It can't be because of him, right?
The next time I meet him.

Ask him in person.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer secretly made a decision in his mind that could instantly explode the mood of the Ancient Red Dragon, and then he focused all his attention on watching the magnificent scene of the tripod casting.

When the Second of the Nine Cauldrons was cast, the terrifying aura it exuded shattered this simple yet effective large-scale casting device, and the golden-red flames rose like a huge wave.

Li Guanyi pressed the tripod with his palm and said softly, "The second one..."

In ancient times, after the princes of the Central Plains conquered the four directions and determined their own positions, they would erect a tripod to represent their own territory. So, where should this second of the Nine Tripods, which has been successfully cast, be placed?
Li Guanyi looked at the brand new Nine Cauldrons, lowered his eyes, and had an idea in his mind.

Since it is the tripod of the Western Regions, there is no more suitable place than there!
Li Guan raised his hand and struck horizontally.

boom! ! !
The huge tripod roared with a rough and loud sound.

The tripod foot left the ground slightly.

At this moment, Li Guanyi stretched out his hand, knocked on the tripod, and suddenly stood up. The blazing flames made the newly cast tripod body carry a terrifying high temperature. If you touched it casually, the skin and flesh would be torn apart. However, Li Guanyi seemed not to be affected by the terrifying high temperature at all.

Under the horrified gazes of many Khans from the surrounding Western Regions, Li Guanyi lifted the heavy and blazing Second of the Nine Cauldrons with one hand.

Flowing light emanated from the cauldron, and Li Guanyi's eighth-level strength burst out.

Ripples appeared in the void, and the roars of dragons and tigers could be heard all around.

Li Guanyi held the tripod in one hand, stepped into the air, and climbed up to the sky step by step.

All the Khans were shocked.

Li Guanyi relied on his heroic martial arts to rush to the highest point of [Juxu Mountain], and then placed the big tripod at the place where he engraved a stone to record his achievements. The wind and snow were strong, and the clouds and fog were thick. People could not stand steadily here, but the second of the Nine Tripods was firmly placed there.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer looked at the tripod and said, "Put it here?"

"Aren't you afraid someone will take you away?"

Li Guanyi replied: "If you have such courage, climb to this height, and can also carry the Nine Cauldrons that carry the destiny of the Western Regions, then you are also brave."

"If you can do it, it's okay to give it to him."

He stretched out his hand and stroked the newly cast tripod.

The first of the Nine Cauldrons fell underground in the south of the Yangtze River, where water and fire intersect.

The second Nine Cauldrons was located on the top of the Holy Mountain, where the winds and clouds were stirring.

Very wonderful, very wonderful!
Tian Khan personally cast the tripod, held the huge tripod in his hand, stood in the sky, and then placed the nine tripods in the most sacred place. All the people from the Western Regions who were watching were filled with emotion, and felt a surge of energy in their chests, and they wanted to roar to the sky.

Li Guanyi could feel the surge of humanity's destiny, and the Jiuzhou Ding in his body was connected to the second of the Nine Dings.

Li Guan raised his hand and struck horizontally, pressing his palm on the rough Nine Cauldrons. The body of the cauldron trembled and made a loud sound. The sound was roaring, and although it was obviously not high enough to reach an incredible and unattainable height, it rolled down incredibly.

All the people watching the ceremony could clearly hear the majestic and graceful sound of the tripod.

It made them feel their blood trembling and boiling.

There were originally layers of white clouds in the sky, but they gradually collapsed and dispersed in the nine clear sounds of the tripods, and gradually spread out to the surroundings. The sound stopped the moving clouds, and when the last sound of the tripod fell, the sky was high and the clouds dispersed.

Then the spectators all knelt on one knee and shouted:

"Heavenly Khan!"

Finally, Li Guanyi saw that the luck of the thirty-six departments and the luck of the sixty cities in Anxi gathered together and fell into the second of the Nine Cauldrons. The body of the cauldron emitted flowing light, and the luck gathered like a dragon, rising into the sky.

The Nine Cauldrons were recast.

A powerful aura of luck also fell on Li Guanyi.

Then the many magical aspects of this Nine Cauldron also appeared in Li Guanyi's mind, and in just an instant, he had understood them all.

The first was in the Western Regions, where Li Guanyi was blessed by the second of the Nine Cauldrons.

Both strength and speed have been enhanced.

This is the aura of the emperor!
He traveled in the Western Regions like an emperor traveling among the other states.

This mighty and majestic aura was enough to allow him to enter a state similar to that of a military formation in his daily life. His every move was mysterious and not just at the level of a simple eighth-level grandmaster.

The second is that this important artifact of the country comes from the characteristics of the Nine-Colored Divine Deer.

The ancient red dragon controls the clouds and rain in the south of the Yangtze River and can absorb heavy rain and floods and store them in the Nine Cauldrons in the south of the Yangtze River.

At this moment, the Second of the Nine Provinces Cauldron can be like the Nine-Colored Divine Deer, surveying the storm and absorbing the enormous storm into the Second of the Nine Provinces, so that the storm in the Western Region can subside.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer can also use the humanity's luck of the Jiuzhou Ding to guide water sources, allowing plants to grow more vigorously and making the lives of the people here more prosperous. The more prosperous the humanity's luck becomes, the more the Nine-Colored Divine Deer can benefit.

The third thing is that it is different from the Nine Cauldrons in Jiangnan.

Li Guanyi stretched out his hand and felt a wisp of solemn and murderous aura, he lowered his eyes and saw that those soldiers all had streams of aura flowing through them, solemn and murderous, almost forming a natural military formation.

The Nine Cauldrons of Jiangnan occupy the east, with dragons as the main body and vitality everywhere. Each of the Nine Cauldrons can improve the various qualities of the creatures in the area covered by the human luck, while the Western Regions occupy the west, with the evil spirit of Gengjin, which is solemn and murderous.

The luck of this Nine Cauldrons falls with a majestic and murderous aura.

Li Guanyi felt that this Nine Cauldrons could allow him to strengthen his military forces with his luck, making the army shrouded in luck more stable. To a certain extent, it put Li Guanyi's troops in a morale state of [the emperor personally leading the army].

The Eastern Yi wood represents the Green Dragon, so it is the first of the Nine Cauldrons and represents birth and development.

The Western Gengjin White Tiger, therefore the two palms of the Nine Cauldrons are for killing.

The nine tripods and four directions each have their own mysteries and are not the same.

Li Guanyi suddenly realized that it was because the world had not been pacified. Otherwise, if the two Nine Cauldrons were connected, the tolerant aura of the Jiangnan Cauldron and the murderous aura of the Nine Cauldrons of the Western Regions could produce effects in each other's areas.

If the world is really unified.

At that time, as long as the people live and work in peace and prosperity, and the world is at peace, the fortune of the Nine Cauldrons will be at its peak. At such a prosperous time, holding the Nine Cauldrons will be like a nine-fold blessing.

The Red Emperor used the Red Sky Sword to become the emperor's unique skill.

It is to condense all things into one person, so that he can exert great strength no matter what.

There are many mysterious methods.

Li Guanyi did not plunder all of the humanity's luck for himself to practice, but gave it back to the people. Each of the Nine Cauldrons was not connected to Li Guanyi. Even if he left Jiangnan, the Nine Cauldrons in Jiangnan were still playing a role.

When he was fighting in the Western Regions, he did not have the luck of the Nine Cauldrons of Jiangnan, so he could only rely on himself to fight hard.

The Nine Cauldrons are independent of each other.

Therefore, each of the Nine Cauldrons has its own aura.

Just a simple tripod is not as mysterious as the so-called divine power of the emperor.

But if all the nine tripods were there, the world would be united.

That majestic energy gathered in one person's body, life and death, all in this body, that person is definitely not just the so-called Son of Heaven, but -

Emperor!

There is one more tripod added to the Nine Cauldrons.

Li Guanyi felt a sense of satisfaction.

However, the Nine-Colored Divine Deer, who had watched everything, suddenly felt confused. Such a divine weapon, the tripod, had powerful abilities, but this power was inexplicably useless.

Perhaps the authorities are confused.

Under the watch and observation of the Nine-Colored Divine Deer, Li Guanyi's reputation here at the moment and the morale of the army under his command would have been higher than normal.

To the army of Anxi City, he was the great general who took the head of the enemy general among the 100,000 soldiers. To the coalition forces of the Western Regions, he was the Khan who defeated all the kings, offered sacrifices to the heavens and cast a tripod to thank the gods and the people.

His subordinates should have been like a king in person, with high morale.

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer who was watching was puzzled.

It is because only by obtaining a divine weapon like the Nine Cauldrons that one can become the Emperor of Man.

Or is it because of his achievements that he has become the emperor of mankind and has cast the Nine Cauldrons?
Is he really using the magic of the Nine Cauldrons?

Or was it that he really, in the process of pursuing the Nine Cauldrons step by step, used his body and this sword to create the achievements of a dignified human emperor.

This is what it means to [cast the cauldron], and this body is the cauldron.

But Li Guanyi didn't care about these anymore, he suddenly had some fantasies.

The abacus in his mind was clattering.

If the Nine-Colored Divine Deer could go to the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, it would guide the growth of plants.

The ancient red dragon came to this dry and arid Western Region for no reason and created clouds and rain.

There may be miraculous changes. Of course, that may also lead to a series of changes such as climate change. It doesn't always start with just one sentence. There is always a way. In this way, the people can recuperate and their lives will soon become prosperous.

In this way, Li Guan wouldn't have to worry about gold and silver all night.

"However, how big is the difference? I will not be satisfied if I don't give it a try." Li Guanyi said to himself, his palm pressing on the second of the Nine Cauldrons, and there was a natural charm in his eyes.

The world in his eyes at this moment was just like what the Yin-Yang School saw.

The luck changed continuously and entangled together. When Li Guan saw the disputes in the Central Plains, the entanglements in the Western Regions, and the direction of the south of the Yangtze River, a luck turned into a pillar of light and shot up into the sky.

That is another Nine Cauldrons.

Just when Li Guanyi noticed the Nine Cauldrons over there, the Nine Cauldrons in the Western Regions suddenly vibrated and roared, and the human luck that soared into the sky seemed to be much broader and extremely turbulent, and the light column of luck in the south of the Yangtze River also changed subtly.

There seemed to be some kind of resonance between the two Nine Cauldrons, as if their destiny was connected to each other.

But he failed in the end. The distance between the two places was too vast, and the southwest area in between, as well as the territory involved in the waterway, were still divided by the angry and surging military evil spirit. So Li Guanyi tried hard for a long time, but failed.

"It really doesn't work... It's still a little bit short."

Li Guanyi couldn't help but feel regretful.

After all, the fortune of the Nine Cauldrons is also related to the terrain of mountains and rivers, and there is a large area in the middle that cannot be crossed.

But at this moment, Li Guanyi suddenly sensed the area between the two Nine Cauldrons because of the Nine Cauldrons. That area was occupied by a kind of luck, which was not the Central Plains luck of Chen State, but Ying State.

Li Guanyi was suddenly touched.

With the help of the energy of luck, I vaguely saw a series of pictures before my eyes.

It is an architectural style that is different from the pavilions and towers in the south of the Yangtze River, the stable courtyards in the Central Plains, and the flat-roofed buildings made of loess, bricks and stones in the Western Regions. It mostly uses bamboo, is scattered around, and has fields cultivated along the mountains like a ladder.

It is the southwest region——

At this moment in the Southwest Palace, a man wearing the official uniform of the State of Chen stood in the middle, looking a little embarrassed, and above him, a man in gorgeous clothes was holding a letter.

There were leaders from different fortresses around, both men and women, old and young. He looked around, not looking at the envoy, and just said:

"This is a letter from Chen Dingye to us."

"We need to send troops to the Central Plains to help him fight against the Ying Kingdom."

The Chen envoy said, "Your Majesty, you should be addressed as Your Majesty!"

The leaders of these Southwestern Yi people suddenly sneered.

The man said indifferently: "Your Majesty? Well, then, Your Majesty, it seems that all the brothers have the same opinion?"

The Chen envoy had a stern face and a hard heart. He loudly questioned: "Since the king has already submitted to our Great Chen Kingdom, he is a subject of the Great Chen Kingdom. Now the king has ordered you to lead the troops to defend the king, why don't you go?!"

The man called the King of the Southwest spit a mouthful of disgust, threw the letter in his hand directly at the envoy's face, and sneered, "Okay, damn it, you're using Chen Dingye to pressure me? Do you think I was brought up by being scared?"

"Come, take a look at the covenant file!"

The King of Southwest took out the covenant and pointed at the words on it and said, "Look carefully, it says here that the person who made the covenant with us is Li Wanli, not Chen Dingye!"

"We don't recognize anything else, we only recognize this dead truth."

"We had an agreement with Brother Li Wanli at the beginning. Now, Li Wanli is gone, and you still want to use the letter to pressure me?!"

"Chen Dingye? In the Taiping Army back then, he wasn't even one of the top three figures."

"What is this sly, serious, scheming rat snake saying?"

"Come to scare me too?"

"You were planning to take me to the State of Chen, and it was Li Wanli who helped you."

"I gave our national treasure, twenty-four pearls, to Li Wanli, and asked him to marry the girl he mentioned. He released me and my people. We all surrendered to your Chen Kingdom out of gratitude for his kindness."

"We appreciate his martial arts and his methods, and we are willing to follow him. We don't like fighting or kneeling. We just hope that he can realize his dream of a peaceful world. We can plant crops and pick tea when we have nothing to do."

"But it's only been a few years since we've been quiet, and when I looked up, Li Wanli is gone?"

The King of the Southwest sneered: "Li Wanli is gone, you said that he was harmed by Yingguo, but I am not that easy to fool."

"Give your Chen Kingdom royal family face?"

"Li Wanli has been killed. If I go, won't it not be long before I die in a fire at a palace banquet? Or will I die like Yue Pengwu, with twelve letters rushing to my death?"

"These two people have made greater contributions to your Chen State than I have, and their martial arts are also better than mine. Now they are dead. I am a southwesterner in your eyes, so shouldn't I be tortured to death by you?"

"Someone, drag him away and feed him to the iron beast!"

The King of the Southwest was getting more and more angry.

The pacification of the southwest was one of Duke Taiping's greatest achievements, and he did it with benevolence. His reputation in the southwest was extremely high. If it were not for the so-called peace, the southwestern region would have rebelled after Duke Taiping's death.

But at that time, the State of Chen was strong in both military and military power, and famous generals such as Yue Pengwu were still there.

Yue Pengwu was ordered to come here personally to pacify the situation.

But he did not lead his extremely elite Beiwei Army.

He just rode in alone and talked about the old things of Duke Taiping. The gentlemen in the southwest just burst into tears, and then the situation was pacified again. Tan Tai Xianming reported to Chen Dingye that he wanted to kill the enemy leader, but Chen Dingye did not agree because he was grateful for their old relationship.

But now, the State of Chen was in financial difficulty and wrote many letters asking him to send troops.

When the King of the Southwest said that, some Southwestern Yi people really wanted to drag him down and feed him to the iron-eating beasts. The envoy was so frightened that his legs and feet became weak. He called for a stop again. After a long silence, he finally said, "Take the letter back. We don't intend to fight with the State of Chen, nor do we want to be used as a pawn by the State of Chen."

The Chen envoy was humiliated and said in resentment:
"When the world is at peace, the heavenly soldiers will come to attack us!"

The King of the Southwest laughed loudly and cursed, "Duke Taiping died, Yue Pengwu fled, the Wolf King rebelled, and Ye Chi was restless. This is the fate of famous ministers and generals in the country. Your Chen State has long been fucking dry. You are just a dying snake. Who are you trying to scare?!"

"When your Chen Kingdom is finished, I will personally go to the front of your palace and pee!"

"Back then, I was no match for that brat Li Wanli when I was competing in Pee Far. Now that he's dead, he can't beat me, hahahaha!"

The Chen envoy was dumbfounded. Seeing the King of Southwest talking about such a beggar-like competition, and seeing the Yi people leader talking about these past events with pride, he was speechless for a moment. The King of Southwest said two more words, and then he had the heroic spirit of a local hero:

"Let's wait and see when the world is at peace."

"And Chen State?"

He was whipped dozens of times and exiled.

"If you don't leave, I'll strip you of your clothes and feed you to the iron beast!"

"roll roll roll!"

The Chen envoy left in a panic. The King of Southwest remained silent for a long time. Finally, holding the original alliance letter, he sighed and said, "Brother Li Wanli, our meeting was actually a farewell forever. In this chaotic world, it would be a pity for someone like you to die."

Someone asked: "Are we really just going to sit back and do nothing?"

"I heard that Qin Wuhou in Jiangnan seems to be the son of Duke Taiping."

The King of the Southwest says: "If the father is a hero, the son may not be a hero."

"Besides, there are two sons of the Duke of Taiping in Saibei."

"Who knows which one is the real one? They are fighting for their Central Plains, who would care about our Southwest? Aren't most of them just asking for food? Even if he is really the son of Li Wanli's brother, I have never seen him."

"I heard that he was a powerful official."

"It's different from Li Wanli."

An old man next to him sighed, "Yeah, it's just that Li Wanli can't eat spicy food, otherwise he would be a very good man."

The King of the Southwest laughed and said, "What kind of hero is a man who cries when eating spicy food? A man who cries when eating spicy food, a boy who jumps up and down when eating fish mint, how can such a hero die?"

"How could such a hero die at the hands of Chen Dingye?"

I laughed and laughed, but I was speechless, I just sighed:
"God, have mercy on me. If I could really see Brother Li Wanli's child..."

The old man asked, "If Qin Wuhou has the spirit of Duke Taiping, should we fulfill the covenant we made with Duke Taiping?"

King of the Southwest said: "Li Wanli has failed."

"Unless you are someone stronger than him, you can't give up easily. Besides, isn't the Wolf King who had a very good relationship with Duke Taiping here? We have signed an alliance with Brother Li Wanli, but the one we are submitting to is the Chen royal family."

"This is really a confusing account."

"If we form an alliance casually, we might be criticized. Then the Central Plains will come here to deal with us, and they will have a ready-made reason. I don't care, but the children cannot be put in danger just because of our so-called affinity."

The old man was silent for a long time, and then said, "It would be better if the children of Li Wanli and Chen Fubi came together..."

The King of the Southwest remained silent for a long time, as if he had seen that scene, and said, "Yes."

"But, how is that possible?"

"Stop dreaming."

The luck changed, the roar of the Nine Cauldrons gradually disappeared, and the scene that Li Guanyi saw also disappeared. The Nine Cauldrons of the Western Regions stabilized. Li Guanyi was in a daze for a long time, and suddenly remembered what his elder brother Yue Qianfeng said, that his father Li Wanli took the pearl to propose marriage to his mother.

In the end, he was exposed for corruption and was stripped of his official position. The wolf king Chen Fubi went to plead for mercy, and the two men fought each other in front of the emperor. Li Guanyi said to himself:

"...Southwest?"

This was the first time Li Guanyi and Pojun talked.

One of the strategies mentioned by Po Jun is to occupy the Western Regions, grow stronger, and use the power of Duke Taiping to easily take over the southwest.

In the past, even though Li Wanli had a great reputation in the southwest, it was of no benefit to Li Guanyi. Only at this moment, when Li Guanyi's own power was surging and gradually rising, he was qualified to take back the benefits brought by his father's prestige.

Only he himself has the power to obtain this alliance.

Only then can we take this step.

My father’s reputation can save us from this step of fighting.

The momentum is gradually building.

If we take over the southwest and go down the waterway into the south of the Yangtze River, we can connect the Nine Cauldrons!
I wonder what kind of grandeur it will be when the Nine Cauldrons are connected. There will be an unparalleled transformation.

Li Guanyi whispered: "The wind starts from the tip of the green duckweed."

The wind is now strong. At this moment, Li Guanyi, who is holding the Nine Cauldrons of the Western Regions and whose luck can be seen with his eyes, sees from afar that in the direction of Anxi City, a military aura is attacking like a wolf, shattering the peaceful atmosphere after the casting of the cauldron.

? ? !

That is——the Wolf King? ! !
Is the Wolf King planning to attack Anxi City?
Li Guanyi's expression froze.

This sudden change shocked him. His strategy was directly interrupted by the Wolf King. His expression changed slightly. He knew that if he didn't go, and the Wolf King didn't see him fighting under his attack, the Wolf King would definitely guess that he was related to the Western Regions.

Wolf King, so cunning!
Li Guanyi once again felt the oppression of the Wolf King.

But immediately, his expression became calm.

The second of the Nine Cauldrons has been cast, and the Eighth Heaven Realm is no longer the same as before.

Since you are here, let’s fight the Wolf King again!
Li Guanyi looked at the Nine-Colored Divine Deer next to him. "I have a request."

Nine-Colored Divine Deer: “???”

Li Guanyi said: "Please send me back to Anxi City as quickly as possible!"

The Nine-Colored Divine Deer asked, "What do you want?"

Li Guanyi replied: "The Wolf King is testing me."

"Let him try it—"

"It's time to turn the situation around!"

Tian Khan said calmly: "The competition is entangled, and each has its own victory."

"But at this moment."

"I am the trend."
