A beam of light shot out from the altar.

Everyone focused intently.

They knew that inside,

something was about to emerge.

Sure enough,

not long after,

accompanied by a roar from the altar,

an entirely scarlet cauldron, with four legs and two ears on its top, appeared.

It was about half the size of a person and emanated an archaic aura.

All four sides were engraved with flowers, birds, fish, and insects.

Extremely exquisite.

Especially after this cauldron appeared, an inexplicable power also slowly emanated.

Whether it was the Four Great Beast Kings, or Lu Yuan and Jiang Ningxian, a sense of respect arose in their hearts.

It seemed like this cauldron could suppress vast mountains and rivers.

"Lu Yuan, you can stop now."

At this moment, Jiang Ningxian spoke again.

She looked into the sky, at the location where the beam of light shot out.

The space seemed to be shaken, cracking like glass.

If this continued, the space would fracture.

As for where it led to,

or what could come out of it, that was unknown.

Lu Yuan also noticed this and nodded immediately, stopping the sacrifice.

Then, he turned his gaze to the cauldron that appeared from the altar, and slowly spoke: "Scarlet, four legs, two ears, the Yongzhou Tripod, one of the nine tripods."

The whereabouts of the nine tripods, although long lost to history, were still recorded widely. Even without the memories of a past life, from the patterns and style above, one could still deduce which tripod it was.

"The Yongzhou Tripod?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ningxian cast a curious glance.

Lingering streams of power emanated from her body, contacting it.

The next moment,

she felt an incomparably heavy aura.

As if the entire heavens and earth were directly pressing down on her.

Immediately, Jiang Ningxian withdrew her power, choosing not to investigate further.

"Indeed, it's one of the nine tripods cast by Da Yu, a true National Treasure. If I continued, I might also suffer serious injuries." She shook her head, understanding that this item was beyond the so-called Holy Weapons and Immortal Weapons.

Even if it wasn't used for conquest, it was still terrifying.

"According to legend, Da Yu created the nine tripods to gather the human race's Power of Destiny and suppress the mountains and rivers."

"A single tripod represents the vast landscapes and rivers of China, its significance too monumental."

Lu Yuan spoke, his expression grave, because he noticed,

the aura emanating from the Celestial Emperor's Ancient Order and edicts in his body had some similarities to it.

Could it be,

that both represent the power of human destiny?

He was unsure and needed verification.

"So how should we handle this cauldron?" the Spiritual Monkey spoke, looking at the Yongzhou Tripod, continuing: "This item is too important, but I'm not very interested in it. It's not as intriguing as that pillar in the East Sea Dragon Hall."

Clearly, it was still somewhat fond of the previous pillar.

"Indeed, the nine tripods are not something we can control."

The Peacock King also spoke, indicating it would not possess it.

The nine tripods were cast by the wise ancestors of the human race.

For the Beast Kings,

even as a treasured artifact, they weren't very useful.

The Nine-tailed Fox King thought similarly, and as for the Golden-winged Roc, it was even less worth considering, as it was merely a steed.

"Nine tripods, ah, National Treasures, symbols of human destiny; anyone who sees them would be tempted and seize them without hesitation, but... that's not where my ambition lies." Jiang Ningxian spoke, finally setting her gaze on Lu Yuan.

She understood clearly that giving the cauldron to him was far better than keeping it with her.

Of course, these matters couldn't be disclosed to her clan members.

Otherwise, it would undoubtedly cause trouble.

After all, this was Jiang Ningxian's personal decision.

"I understand, thank you, everyone."

Lu Yuan replied, naturally understanding their considerations.

No matter what, they wished to give the nine tripods to him.

So expressing gratitude was only appropriate.

Without saying much more,

he beckoned, the Meridian Heaven-Repairing Furnace appearing, growing larger in the wind, directly enclosing the Yongzhou Tripod.

Lu Yuan indeed wanted to know the wonders of this cauldron, but within the Kunlun Secret Realm, with Outer Realm Creatures, though he could handle them, if the news got out, it would surely draw many people's covetous eyes.

The grand era was arriving, and strong beings from various Star Realms were about to descend upon this world.

No matter what, caution was necessary.

Not far away,

Jiang Ningxian's eyes lit up upon seeing the Meridian Heaven-Repairing Furnace.

"It seems his secrets are even more than I imagined."

Incurably, she grew more curious about Lu Yuan, wanting to investigate thoroughly.

And after Lu Yuan retrieved the Yongzhou Tripod,

knowing that the two greatest fortunes in the Kunlun Secret Realm had been acquired,

he turned to Jiang Ningxian and said, "I've completed what I needed to do, what are you planning next?"

If she wished to continue exploring the Secret Realm, he would certainly assist, given their prior agreement.

"To fully understand what the Ancestral Dragon encountered through just one place is certainly impossible, and the state of the outside world is unknown, so let us leave directly." Jiang Ningxian replied.

She previously learned some things from Lu Yuan and understood that this secret couldn't be unveiled all at once.

Additionally, she knew that the methods to cut off the world's connection were gradually failing.

The outside world was changing daily.

It was necessary to understand the situation.

"Alright."

To this, Lu Yuan nodded too.

Then he called to the Four Great Beast Kings, preparing to leave this city.

Because here, there were no significant secrets left for him.

Then,

he used methods to cover the Nine-Colored Altar directly.

Lu Yuan had studied this thing for a long time, apart from the small tripod, no other methods worked on it, so he stopped worrying about it. For related information, Jiang Ningxian could be questioned, as she apparently knew something.

Soon.

In no time,

everyone set off, leaving the place where the Spider Lilies bloomed.

Along the way, there were some Outer Realm Creatures heading this way, searching for legends of fortunes and such.

Lu Yuan ignored them, instead turning to Jiang Ningxian and said, "It seems you've seen that Nine-Colored Altar."

"Indeed."

She had anticipated this question.

After a brief thought, she continued: "In truth, I haven't seen it personally, only encountered it in my clan's ancient texts. This altar is a form of passage or perhaps an ancient road leading to unknown places, and our clan's ancestor referred to it as a War Platform."

The ancestor of the Jiang lineage was naturally one of the Human Emperors, Shennong.

War Platform?

Upon hearing this,

Lu Yuan furrowed his brows.

The first half of the explanation,

was akin to what the Spiritual Monkey had mentioned, but what about the War Platform?

Incuably, he questioned again: "War, who are we to war with? Does your Jiang clan also have such a Nine-Colored Altar?"

Lu Yuan always felt that this Nine-Colored Altar contained great secrets, possibly related to the formidable foes mentioned by the Ancestral Dragon.

But exactly what it was about, he was still unclear, hoping for an answer from her.

He believed,

it might pertain to the ultimate secret.
