The Nine Cauldrons 593 A Bloodbath in the Temple

Many dark red houses could be seen in the forest in the deepest area of the Desolate Land. This was the sacred land of the Barbarian Tribe and the temple was located right in the core of the forest. At the center of the spacious Temple, there was an enormous Godly Cauldron. This was one of the nine cauldrons that Emperor Yu had forged.

The sun gleamed through the trees. Because of the abundant leaves, only some of the light shone through.

Shaded by the trees, the temple appeared very quiet.

Every week, there would be a day known as the baptism day. On the day of baptism, all the newborn babies of the Barbarian Tribe would visit the temple and be baptized. Only babies who had gone through this baptism can be considered a true Barbarian.

"Elder!" A bald giant as tall as three meters was walking in the Temple and all the Barbarians that saw him showed great enthusiasm as they greeted respectfully.

"Mhmm."

The bald, gold-like character responded as he walked towards the Nine Prefectures Cauldrons

"Hmmm?" Suddenly, his face changed.

"Roar~~" The bald giant gave out a deep roar. His voice sounded deep but very loud. It was like the rumble of thunder, transmitting a few hundred Li away.

In the sky in front of the temple:

The Undying Phoenix, whose entire body was immersed in flames, and the Godly Thunderbolt Hawk, whose body was occasionally shimmering electricity, both soared high up in the sky in a spiraling pattern while Teng Qingshan and Pei San looked down.

"Such a loud voice," said Teng Qingshan as he heard the loud roar sounded by the bald giant.

"You hear that?" Pei San smiled. "That baldie was summoning the Emptiness Realm Demonic Beasts. He sensed our presences. I think they are afraid."

Two Insightful Emptiness Realm Experts are working together! This would intimidate and frighten even the most ancient Barbarian Temple.

As lights flickered, a few huge Emptiness Realm Demonic Beasts rocketed into the sky. The Emptiness Realm Expert and the Emptiness Realm Demonic Beasts finally emerged! The most conspicuous demonic beast was the huge, glistening, black centipede swirling in mid-air. The three Elders of the Barbarian Tribe all stood on the back of the centipede.

"It's you!" The bald giant exclaimed in astonishment.

"Insightful Emptiness Realm?" The silver-haired elder and the skinny, wrinkly skinned elder looked at Teng Qingshan in shock. One should know that Teng Qingshan had visited the Barbarian Tribe Temple last year. During his previous visit, he was only an expert who had just reached Emptiness Realm Culmination. Yet, within less than a year, he attained the Insightful Emptiness Realm!

It was extremely difficult to reach the Insightful Emptiness Realm.

"Yes, it's me. I am back," Teng Qingshan laughed lightly and said to Pei San, "Sovereign Pei, do you sense Jin Sheng's presence?"

"Sovereign Teng, Jin Sheng is right below us," smiled Pei San.

"Oh?"

Teng Qingshan extended his Power of the World and scanned the Barbarian Tribe Temple below. Immediately, he found the mysterious man wearing a golden mask and black coat. That golden masked man hopped onto the back of the flying demonic beast Black Crow and flew to the side of the three elders of Man Tribe Temple in a flash.

"Great Elder," The golden masked man greeted the other three men with a nod.

Swoosh!

An enormous purple figure appeared at the side of the black centipede. It was the Purple Haired Godly Ape that was 30 meters tall. Its hair stood up as it scanned Teng Qingshan and Pei San. It made noises with its teeth, trying to scare Teng Qingshan and Pei San.

The Purple Haired Godly Ape also sensed that Teng Qingshan and Pei San were not easy targets.

"Qingshan, among these three demonic beasts, the Purple Haired Godly Ape is the strongest," said Pei San, with the use of the Sound Transmission Technique.

"Mhmm, this isn't all of the demonic beasts. There is another black demonic dragon but there is no sight of him today," said Teng Qingshan as he looked at the golden masked man. Even after careful observation, he could not confirm the identity of this man. Moreover, the Power of the Heaven and Earth which enveloped the golden masked man was blocking Teng Qingshan from examining.

The perception of the aura was not enough to determine the identity of the golden masked man.

"Elders, I am the cause of this disaster. The man who is dressed in the white cloak and holding the long spear is named Teng Qingshan. When I was in the Desolate Land, he took the chance and killed my family. This hatred is absolutely irreconcilable! However, what happened between me and him has disturbed the temple. I, Jin Sheng, am ashamed!" The golden masked man bowed sincerely as he spoke.

Then, he straightened up his body and said, "Teng Qingshan is very powerful, I have already given up my revenge and was planning to train quietly in the Temple, but who would have thought that they still hunted me down. Since this disaster was caused by me, let me take responsibility for it."

"I have no other wishes. I just hope that you three will raise the thirteen children that I have adopted," the golden masked man bowed again.

Swoosh!

He rushed towards Teng Qingshan immediately.

"Elder Jin!" A buff and strong arm blocked the golden masked man. The bald elder glared at the golden masked man and roared, "Elder Jin, what kind of people do you think the Barbarian Tribesmen are? For the past dozen years, you have blessed the Barbarian Tribe greatly. We know all the good things you have done for us! You personally raised those thirteen kids. These two men will not harm you in the Barbarian Tribe Temple!"

"Elder Jin, please stay at the back." The silver-haired elder instructed.

"Leave it to us."

The skinny elder stared at Teng Qingshan and Pei San, who were on the back of the Undying Phoenix and the Godly Thunderbolt Hawk. "Teng Qingshan, when you came to visit the Barbarian Temple previously, we let you go. Now, Elder Jin has given up on taking revenge, why are you still holding on to this? Leave now and we can all pretend this never happened. Otherwise—"

"Do you know who this Jin Sheng really is?"

Teng Qingshan growled fiercely, "Do you know what he did in the Land of the Nine Prefectures before he came to the Barbarian Temple? Do you all know? You all know nothing!!!"

Hearing this, the three elders frowned.

"You can't just blindly believe one person's words?" Teng Qingshan said, "Elders of the Barbarian Temple, I admire the Barbarian Tribesmen. I respect that you all ventured into the Desolate Land and settled down here. However, today, this person, whose real name is unknown and claims to be Jin Sheng, will die by my hand today!"

Suddenly—

"Hmmm?" Teng Qingshan frowned.

A majestic presence emerged from the underground and hovered in mid-air. The scales on the dragon's body shone a strange glow. As the black demonic dragon scanned Teng Qingshan and Pei San with its huge eyes, Pei San's expression changed. He immediately said to Teng Qingshan with the use of the Sound Transmission Technique, "I didn't expect the demonic dragon to be here! It's going to be troublesome!"

"Troublesome?" Teng Qingshan looked at Pei San.

"Mhmmm. Teng Qingshan, I will try to stall the demonic dragon later. However, you have to deal with the other demonic beasts." Pei San said with the use of the Sound Transmission Technique. "Take advantage of the Undying Phoenix's speed and try to snatch Elder Jin Sheng away."

Teng Qingshan cast a glance at Pei San and remained silent.

Pei San would hold off the black demonic dragon while he dealt with the others? According to the demonic dragon, Violet Rain, said, that Purple Haired Godly Ape was almost as strong as the black demonic dragon.

"Roar!" the black demonic dragon gave out a deep roar.

"Roar!" that Purple Haired Godly Ape also made threatening noises.

The skinny elder's aura suddenly became more powerful. He shouted loudly, "The Godly Dragon and Godly Ape told you both to leave immediately. Teng Qingshan...I think you should leave as fast as you can." The bald giant and the silver-haired elder of the Barbarian Tribe appeared very confident. They never doubted the power of the Black Demonic Dragon and the Purple Haired Godly Ape.

Hearing this, Teng Qingshan and Pei San looked at each other.

...

In the sky above the forest, Teng Qingshan and Pei San hovered opposite the men of the Barbarian Temple.

Even as Teng Qingshan faced the menacing Godly Dragon and Godly Ape, he still pointed at the skinny elder with the Reincarnation Spear and said with a voice so loud that it echoed throughout the entire forest. "Elders of the Barbarian Temple, I respect the temple, you fools have decided to trust this vile creature. I have no choice. Now, I am going to let you choose. Either you hand over Jin Sheng or we have a bloody fight!"

The three elders of the Barbarian Tribe Temple glowered.

"Roar!" The black demonic dragon raised its head and looked at Teng Qingshan and Pei San coldly.

"Haha...giant earthworm, watch out! I will tear you in half!" Pei San laughed loudly while pointing at the black demonic dragon.

The elders of the temple became furious when they heard this.

"The Barbarian Tribe Temple should not be insulted! The Godly Beasts of the Barbarian Tribe should not be insulted as well. The one who insulted the Godly Dragon will die!" the bald giant shouted angrily.

"I insulted it. Come take my life." Pei San teased.

"Digging your own grave."

The three elders of the Barbarian Tribe Temple had horrible facial expressions.

"Digging our own graves? Let's see if that is true!" A cold light flickered in Teng Qingshan's eyes as he called out to the Undying Phoenix. The Undying Phoenix flapped its wings and carried Teng Qingshan away swiftly. Instantly, it reached the camp area of the Barbarian Tribe Temple. 

Seeing this, Pei San laughed and shouted out loud, "Wait for me!"

The Godly Thunderbolt Hawk carried Pei San and rushed to the camp area as well.

Immediately, chaos ensued in the sky!

"Swoosh! Swoosh!"

The moment the Undying Phoenix reached there, flames spewed out from its mouth. The significant amount of purple flames spread out and the sky became a sea of flames in an instant. At the same time, a purplish golden flame flew towards the golden masked man.

"Swoosh!"

The black gigantic centipede was able to protect itself easily in the monstrous flames. It headed towards Teng Qingshan and swung its tail, attempting to sting Teng Qingshan.

Teng Qingshan's eyes were as sharp as knives.

"F*ck off!"

Teng Qingshan held the Reincarnation Spear with both his hands and used the 'Splitting Mountain' technique. The Reincarnation Spear smashed onto the tail of the black gigantic centipede, causing its whole body to twitch. Simultaneously, green blood flowed out from the gaps of its scales. Immediately, the black gigantic centipede fled.

The centipede was only slightly stronger than the Black Crow. Therefore, it was not simply not strong enough to fight against an Insightful Emptiness Realm Expert.

"Bang!"

Meanwhile, Pei San and the Purple Haired Godly Ape were fighting nearby, smashing their fists at each other. Pei San's small fist and the Purple Haired Godly Ape's big fist clashed directly, stirring up a violent shockwave that destroyed the surrounding forest. The impact sent Pei San flying back. At this moment, a dragon groan sounded as the Black Demonic Dragon rushed towards Pei San.

Seeing this, the Purple Haired Godly Ape moved a step forward in mid-air. Although it is said to be one step, it is actually a distance of one hundred Zhang. Instantly, the Godly Ape appeared right before Teng Qingshan.

"Roar!" A roar sounded.

The Purple Haired Godly Ape lifted its foot, which was bigger than Teng Qingshan, and stepped ferociously!
