Chapter 6226: He Knows the Cat Demon

Given Jie Shanxian’s ability and Chu Feng’s assistance, it was easy enough for them to alter the formation’s structure without any amateur world spiritists noticing.

Everything went smoothly; the Ancient Era’s War Clansmen didn’t notice anything amiss despite watching the process from the start to the end. They would have never known that they were no longer calling the shots by the time the copper cauldron emerged from the formation.

“Young friend Chu Feng, did you succeed?” The Ancient Era’s War Clan’s Clan Chief looked at the copper cauldron with gleaming eyes.

“It should be. Give it a try, Lord Clan Chief.” Chu Feng passed the meter-tall copper cauldron over to the clan chief with a wave of his hand.

Without any hesitation, the clan chief formed a hand seal and infused his bloodline power into the copper cauldron, causing it to glow. A powerful aura emanated from the cauldron.

The Ancient Era’s War Clansmen weren’t worried as the aura didn’t hurt them. The copper cauldron’s energy served only to neutralize Old Cat’s powers.

“It worked!”

“There is hope for our clan!”

“It will be the end of the cat demon if he dares return!”

The Ancient Era’s War Clansmen were overjoyed, but the clan chief pointed out with a frown, “Young friend Chu Feng, the forging seems to be a failure.”

“A failure? May I give it a try?” Chu Feng asked.

“Go ahead.”

The clan chief carefully pushed the copper cauldron over to Chu Feng, a sign of how much he cherished it.

Chu Feng formed a hand seal and fused his bloodline power into it. The copper cauldron glowed so brightly in response that the crowd was forced to squint their eyes. On top of that, runes emerged from the copper cauldron and swiftly revolved around it.

The cauldron expanded to over a hundred meters tall and unleashed a powerful suction force that devoured everything in the vicinity, except for cultivators and the treasures they protected.

And this wasn’t the copper cauldron’s full prowess.

Soon, the light surrounding the copper cauldron scattered, and the revolving glowing runes seeped back into the cauldron. At the same time, the copper cauldron buzzed aloud and grew even larger instead of contracting back to its original size.

In the end, the cauldron shot out a green light beam covered in runes. This light beam was formidable, on par with the phenomenon induced when a prodigy made a breakthrough in their cultivation.

Fortunately, the green light beam didn’t hurt anyone or damage the surroundings.

The Ancient Era’s War Clansmen were overjoyed.

“It worked!”

It was evident the treasure forging was a success, for the earlier green light beam was an energy that countered Old Cat’s.

Chu Feng changed his hand seal, and the copper cauldron reverted to its original size.

“Lord Clan Chief, why don’t you give it another try?” Chu Feng asked.

Eggy burst into laughter. “Hahaha! Chu Feng, you’re terrible! You could have told the old man straight you’re the only one who can use the cauldron. You’re shattering his hope time and time again!”

“Milady Queen, it’s best if he discovers it himself. Besides, I doubt he’ll believe me even if I tell him that. He’d still try it anyway,” Chu Feng replied.

The clan chief took the copper cauldron. He activated his clan-protection formation to raise his cultivation to rank two Heavenly God level once more before unleashing his bloodline power, but it was still to no avail.

“Young friend Chu Feng, your bloodline power is so strong that it may have altered the treasure’s core. You are the only one who can activate this treasure now,” the clan chief said.

“Only I can activate it? But I didn’t sense any issue when I was forging the treasure,” Chu Feng exclaimed in a fluster, sounding incredibly innocent.

“It’s normal for mutations to occur when a powerful bloodline is involved. Young friend Chu Feng, we’ll have to trouble you to channel the treasure against the cat demon when he invades again,” the clan chief said.

Chu Feng frowned. “That may be difficult.”

The clan chief was stunned. Fearing that Chu Feng didn’t want to help them, he quickly added, “Young friend Chu Feng, this matter concerns the survival of our clan. You may take more treasures if you wish.”

Chu Feng shook his head. “It’s not about the treasures... Haaa, I think I should come clean now. I am acquainted with that Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist.”

“What? You’re acquainted with that Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist?”

The Ancient Era’s War Clansmen were shocked. Many eyed him in wariness. Some even secretly reached for their weapons.

The clan chief, however, remained calm. He first glanced at his clansmen, a gesture for them to calm down first, before turning to address Chu Feng, “Young friend, you recognize the Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist?”

“I once entered a remnant and benefited greatly from it, and that Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist is the remnant’s master. I don’t know his identity, but I am indebted to him. Furthermore, he felt like a righteous person based on my previous encounter with him. Why don’t I go out and talk with him? I’ll tell him the truth about the cat demon and ask him to hand him over,” Chu Feng proposed.

Since the Ancient Era’s War Clan needed him, he thought he could use this opportunity to have them open the city gates so that he could head out, meet Lord Zhenlong and Old Cat, and get to the bottom of the story via them.

Old Cat shouldn’t pose a threat as long as he wasn’t close enough to absorb the treasure’s energy. As for Lord Zhenlong, while he was a formidable world spiritist, Chu Feng had nothing to fear with Jie Shanxian backing him.

Chu Feng should be able to make a safe retreat even if they were lying. Even if they attacked the black wall again, Chu Feng would have nothing to fear now that he had the copper cauldron to subdue Old Cat.

“Young friend Chu Feng, you don’t have to take such a huge risk. Since you are indebted to the Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist, all you have to do is subjugate the cat demon. We won’t hurt the Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist. What do you think?” the clan chief proposed.

“Young master Chu Feng, my father is right. You are doing this out of goodwill, but the Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist might use this opportunity to hurt you. It’s too dangerous!” Zhan Moli added.

“I know this matter is of grave importance, but I owe that elder too much. I trust his character. He must have fallen for that cat demon’s deception,” Chu Feng said.

“Young friend Chu Feng, you’re still young. You may know a person’s face, but you will never know their heart. Humans can do terrible things for their interests.

“How about this? It’s only a matter of time before they return. I’ll open the city gate so that you can have a talk then. That way, I can use our founder’s formation to protect you if the Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist insists on siding with that cat demon, but you must harden your heart and vanquish the cat demon. I’ll also slay the Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist,” the clan chief said,

“All right.” Chu Feng accepted the offer.

His goal was to get to the bottom of the matter, so it would be best to confront them in person. Thus, he added, “To be honest, I am acquainted with that cat demon too.”

“Ah?”

The Ancient Era’s War Clansmen put up their guard once more.
