Chapter 929: Vessel of Heavenly Daos

Great Si Ming had once researched Great Sui's 30 Drawings of Heavenly Daos. His prowess was beyond imagination; thus, he was able to just chant the Heavenly Dao's Language and call upon the Daos of the universe to form the Treasure of Heavenly Daos.

But Zhong Yue wasn't even close to that level. When he was researching the 30 Drawings of Heavenly Daos in the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, he too once thought to forge the 30 Drawings of Heavenly Daos into 30 Treasure of Heavenly Daos.

But his cultivation level was too low and neither were his attainments in the Drawings of Heavenly Daos sufficient enough to make it happen. He simply couldn't even call upon the Daos of this universe nor the required materials to forge a Treasure of Heavenly Daos.

But now, there were two unexpected helpers and the huge hammer not inferior to the monarch weapons here to help him. Thus, Zhong Yue was able to call upon the Daos of the universe and forge the Treasures of Heavenly Daos!

The Drawing of Tian Pan was one of Great Sui's 30 Drawings of Heavenly Daos. But it wasn't just a round disc one could find or forge randomly, its structure had a profound meaning.

As the saying went: The sky is round and the earth is flat. The Tian Pan's bottom was round, resembling the sky; and the sides were flat like the earth; its center was the sky, and the walls were the earth.

Thus, the Tian Pan was also known as the Immemorial Heavenly Flask, a flask that looked like a square flask with a round bottom.

This Tian Pan was forged with the Tian Pan Heavenly Dao as its core. It contained the Daos of this universe and the powers of these Daos.

The patterns that appeared on the metal's surface when Zhong Yue was forging it was in fact, the Heavenly Daos' Dao patterns. It was when the Dao patterns were close to completion that the Daos of this universe were attracted to it and called upon to fortify it!

Zhong Yue raised the hammer again, and the sky and earth shuddered once more with loud rumbles. The rainbow rays billowed out from the void, flashing through the horizon, and crashing into Tian Pan along with the strikes of the hammer!

The sparks of fire formed into the specters of gods, flying around the Tian Pan with the chants of Dao voices resounding in their ears.

One strike after another, all kinds of shapes bloomed around Tian Pan. Gradually, the Tian Pan began to resonate with the Daos. It felt like every change in the Tian Pan would also affect the Dao around it!

As the hammer landed again on the Tian Pan, a beautiful melody touched the surroundings. It was just a sound, yet, all of the Dao seemed to soften in its wake.

The two old men were shocked. In their eyes, Zhong Yue appeared like a giant who was creating a new world and the Daos in it. The hammer didn't felt like a hammer anymore but a heaven-cleaving axe that could shatter the nothingness of void to open up a whole new universe!

Every single movement he made was filled with the inexpressible abstrusities of Daos!

The sounds of the metal clanking were just the same too. The Great Six Paths Reincarnations formed from their [Demonic Chant of Reincarnations] was gradually vanishing in the midst of the Dao voices as the sound was tearing their Great Six Paths Reincarnations apart!

Yin Fanxuan, Fu Li, and the others were all shocked too. None knew when Zhong Yue learned such power. On the side, Hundun Yu quickly took out a mirror and held up the Fusang Tree branch. With the branch as a pen and the mirror as paper, he recorded the scene down.

The Hundun Clan's clan master ordered him to go 'undercover' by Zhong Yue's side to record all of Zhong Yue's actions and events revolving him. Naturally, how could he miss such an important moment?

Zhong Yue was still swinging the hammer, oblivious to what was happening around him. In fact, he wouldn't care less about it. He was now in a state of enlightenment, one that was related to the Dao.

In this Dao state, he couldn't feel the hammer in his hands. Every movement he made was dictated by the Tian Pan Heavenly Dao itself. He was merely a musician following the lead of its orchestrator.

All of a sudden, a soft sound rang out. It was the anvil beneath the Tian Pan. A crack had appeared on its surface.

The old hammer-wielder's expression changed drastically, he quickly looked up to spot the small crack on the hammer's surface.

"Not good, whatever he is forging is too strong, my Million Treasure Dao Hammer won't be able to hold it anymore!"

The old man was heartbroken, he quickly reached his hand out and snatched the hammer back from Zhong Yue. He shouted, "No more! No more!"

The sudden development of situation had awoken Zhong Yue. The weight that was in his hand before was now gone and so was his heart, it felt empty. The Tian Pan was only 70% complete, the most important 30% was still not yet finished. If he was allowed to continue forging it, he would've probably forged his first Treasure of Heavenly Dao!

But now, the Tian Pan wasn't completed yet. Mostly, it could be called a Vessel of Heavenly Daos, only a vessel, with not much power or abstrusity in it.

The hammer-wielding old man pushed him to the side, clearing the anvil and putting it on his back. He held the hammer in his hand; whereas the other old man carried the bellows and furnace.

The two of them were quick, in just moments, they had finished packing up the four treasures. The hammer-wielding old man looked at the Tian Pan, contemplating if he should take it. Though, in the end, he sighed and returned the Tian Pan to Zhong Yue.

"King Yi, we've lost, your talent has earned much of our respect!"

The two old men bolted away while their distant voices said, "Don't you worry. We lost and fully acknowledge our loss. We won't go back on our word. But in the future, we might cross paths again. After all, we have to follow the orders from above, whether we like it or not. King Yi, if it so happens that you die by our hands, don't take it personally!"

Zhong Yue quickly raised his voice and shouted, "Seniors, please stop!"

The two old men stopped and turned around to see Zhong Yue bowing at them with a smile, "Seniors, wherever it is, forgings of treasures are still done the same, isn't it? My Heaven Suppressing Prefecture is lacking a great number of treasures, I wonder if the seniors can help the junior to forge a few treasures?"

The two old men exchanged an eye, laughed out loud happily and strode away.

"King Yi, you have guts, you dare to rope us in!"

Old Man Xuan laughed, "We don't forge weapons for the ordinary people, we only do it for the Heavenly Monarch. If you really want us to forge weapons for you, you'll have to first wait till you have taken down the current Heavenly Monarch and usurp Mu Xiantian!"

"King Yi, you have passed today. But one day, when you are still alive, and the Heavenly Monarch orders us to attack the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, we might meet again. Then, we will have another competition!"

Old Man Qi's voice also said, "In the front of the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, two old men forge one weapon after another, and with the birth of each weapon, marks the end of another hero's legacy, and their heads would roll down to the ground. We'll see whether if you, the lord of the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, can really suppress the heavens!"

Zhong Yue watched as they left and he murmured, "Only forge for the Heavenly Monarch? Then, I'll have them forge weapons for me in the future!"

Fu Li said in a trembling voice, "They took the needle with them! Master, I can feel it, the air of my death lingering within the needle, I will die because of it! If someone in the Heaven Court gets their hands on it..."

Yin Fanxuan thought of the weapon for her and she too felt the unease consuming her heart. She could feel her body, mind, and soul trapped inside it, as if signaling her impending doom.

However, as she cultivated the [Ancient Time Unmoving Seal] from Fu Shang, she was able to shed off the weights in her mind and turn her Dao heart back to normal. But her worry was still evident on her face as she said, "Husband, if the seniors really did come to our Heaven Suppressing Prefecture, all the gods, even the two Imperial Emperors in the Heaven Suppressing Prefecture will be struck down by them! Even if they don't step in and fight themselves, they can still tear us to the ground!

Zhong Yue's face was also solemn, "Old Man Xuan and Qi are indeed incredible, we mustn't let our guards down."

After this experience, he was able to see just how sharp the two old men would be if they were used to attack a city. Perhaps, no single city or keep would be able to stop them at all!

"Old Man Xuan and Qi are truly incredible, if they can help me..."

Zhong Yue sighed, he held onto Yin Fanxuan's hands and boarded the Kirin carriage with her, "Don't worry, I will help you all in disarming the threats from those weapons. The four weapons Old Man Xuan and Qi had forged will surely be given out to the experts of the Heaven Court to fight us. Senior Martial Brother Yu..."

Hundun Yu raised his head and the smile of an honest man spread across his face, "I'm not worried at all. The scissors may counter me, but it is no match for a single swing of my Fu Sang Branch."

Zhong Yue nodded, he turned to Fu Li and pondered moments before saying, "Your seventh spine isn't cultivated, that makes it your death spot."

Fu Li held a solemn face as he replied, "Not only mine, it's also the death spots for all the Creators of Star Torrent Fortress! Four of the human leaders cultivate the same arts and techniques as mine!"

Zhong Yue's face turned solemn and said in a stern voice, "Cultivating the seventh spine requires the arts and techniques of the Huaxu Clan. Although I do understand some of the Huaxu cultivations, I am no expert in it. I've once come across a cultivation art, but it is only suited for ladies..."

Fu Li grew despondent, "The Huaxu Clan's cultivations are only designed for females. If I cultivate it, my little brother will eventually shrink into my stomach. By then, I'll turn into a female..."

Yin Fanxuan's blushed, she turned around and entered the carriage not wanting to hear him blabbering anymore.

Zhong Yue comforted, "I'll find you a Huaxu expert who can help you in this. Don't you worry much."

However, Fu Li was still worried. Zhong Yue walked into the carriage and sat beside Yin Fanxuan, he said worryingly, "Yinxuan, your lethal weakness, it's difficult..."

Yin Fanxuan was also incredibly anxious. The Divine Dragon Bell did manage to find her death spot. If she were to encounter the bell again, she would have no choice but to die!

The Saint Spirit gave her success, but it was her fatal weakness.

"Husband, Old Man Xuan and Qi also forged a weapon for you. In the Heaven Court, during Heavenly Monarch's birthday celebration, the Heaven Court's experts may not come for me, but they will definitely have their eyes on you." Yin Fanxuan was concerned, "Do you have any way to stop it?"

"A weapon that counters me entirely?" Zhong Yue replied casually, "The armillary sphere Old Man Xuan and Qi had forged is only what I wanted them to forge. Whoever comes to me with it will die."

Yin Fanxuan's eyes widened in shock. She said helplessly, "No wonder Imperial Emperor Xian Tian makes you his left-hand man."

Zhong Yue pondered deeply, he didn't know how to tackle the Divine Dragon Bell. Old Man Xuan and Qi's Divine Dragon Bell was truly admirable, it truly was the counter to the Innate Saint Spirit Bod.

And Yin Fanxuan will be forced to face it, there was simply no other way around!

Suddenly, Yin Fanxuan smiled, "Husband, don't worry about me. This is what I must go through, it is my own tribulation. If I make it through this, any other Divine Dragon Bell-similar weapons in the future will not be a problem for me anymore. This Divine Dragon Bell, I will handle it myself!"

Zhong Yue startled, it was at this moment that he recalled how his wife was a supreme genius who stood above everyone else of her generation. If anyone was qualified to find a counter to the Divine Dragon Bell, it would be her.

That said, if she wasn't able to handle the Divine Dragon Bell, it was most likely he wouldn't be able too.

"Alright, the Divine Dragon Bell will be yours to handle!" Rays flashed in his eyes and he laughed. "Old Man Xuan and Qi failed to take our lives this time. But what has yet to be finished here, will be carried to the Heaven Court. There, we will face with stronger powers and greater obstacles, and by then, Fanxuan, don't step in, I will handle all that's to come at us!"
