Chapter 1256: Celestial Anomaly
Chapter 1256: Celestial Anomaly
November 20th, 2017
Sili Military Camp, above Luoyang City!
Just as the Human Emperor Cauldron began to devour and fuse with the Yuwang Bell within the Imperial Palace...
The clear sky, once devoid of clouds for miles, suddenly transformed into a tempestuous scene, shrouded in thick, dark clouds.
This abrupt change startled the commoners, but they had seen their fair share of the world, especially in this realm where Beast Tides and Foreign Demons were commonplace. This minor disturbance couldn't faze them. Moreover, they were in Lu Hai Kong's territory, whom they revered and worshipped. Soon, they went about their business, confident that Lu Hai Kong would handle the situation. However, not everyone shared their calmness.
Several workers at the Northern Defense Tower halted their tasks and made their way to Xi Zhicai. Having reached a certain level, their psychic energy allowed them to sense the formidable power above, a power that could potentially devastate Luoyang.
At that moment, Xi Zhicai, seemingly aware of this impending event, observed the dark clouds with minimal surprise, but a hint of concern lingered in his eyes, given the magnitude of the spectacle.
"I hope everything goes well..."
...
Within Luoyang City, many were startled by the spectacle, including Wang Yue, who had relocated from Bingzhou, and an elderly man who had recently arrived in Luoyang unnoticed.
"The aura is massive and heavy, yet it carries an air of nobility. The power above must be emanating from a Human Dao Sacred Artifact. Interesting, what has that fellow done to create such a scene?" The old man gazed at the sky, muttering.
"That power carries a sense of desecration and anger. It doesn't bode well for the Sacred Artifact." Wang Yue glanced upwards, then continued polishing the longsword in his hand, seemingly unconcerned with the spectacle above.
"With such a spectacle, don't you want to find out what's happening?"
"Find out what? Even if we knew, what could we do? We're not involved, so it's best to ignore it. Others will handle it."
The old man paused, then shrugged, "You're right."
...
At the Sili Military Camp, on a nearby peak outside Luoyang, an elderly Taoist with white hair and a middle-aged Taoist stood side by side.
"The commotion is indeed significant. This fellow sure knows how to stir up trouble!" The old Taoist sighed, gazing at the dark clouds over Luoyang.
"It's not that he invites trouble; he's at the heart of it," the middle-aged man shook his head. "If he can't handle this minor issue, can you assist him?"
"Don't you sense the nature of his predicament? He's drawn the attention of a Human Dao Sacred Artifact with a millennia-old legacy. Setting aside the question of sacrilege, the artifact itself is no easy foe, and numerous factions support it from the shadows."
The old Taoist gazed at the celestial phenomena above Luoyang City and shook his head.
The Yu King Nine Cauldrons, aside from the three unowned items in this world, were mostly held by various forces in the Foreign Lands. The old Taoist and the middle-aged man didn't have a detailed understanding of this, but they could sense the situation from the state of Luoyang City. At this moment, they realized the immense challenges that Lu Hai Kong was facing.
"It seems that this time, someone will return with disappointment," the middle-aged man shook his head.
"If there are no surprises, it's inevitable..."
The old Taoist had only spoken half his sentence when he abruptly stopped, and at that moment, the middle-aged man beside him seemed to notice something as well. Both of them fixed their gaze on the Imperial Palace within Luoyang City.
Almost simultaneously, as their eyes landed on the palace, a golden pillar of light shot up from within.
Within that pillar, a golden dragon's illusory form seemed to spiral upwards, piercing through the clouds.
As the dragon ascended, it dove into the thick clouds, and no one knew what it did there. Suddenly, the clouds glowed with golden light, and the heavy clouds began to dissipate. Before long, the sky above Luoyang returned to its original cloudless state.
The old Taoist and the middle-aged man were stunned by this sudden turn of events, and it took them a while to regain their composure.
"What power was that just now?" The middle-aged man exclaimed in shock.
"Dominance, heaviness, solidity, carrying the Fortune of the Three States. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the power of his Human Dao Sacred Artifact."
"His Human Dao Sacred Artifact was recently crafted, right? For a newly forged Sacred Artifact to possess such power is truly unbelievable."

"No, although his Sacred Artifact is newly crafted, it's not an ordinary Human Dao Sacred Artifact. At the very least, the method of its creation and the creator must be extraordinary; otherwise, such power would be impossible."
"The crafting method? As far as I know, wasn't his Sacred Artifact forged by three Master-level craftsmen?"
"Are you sure what you saw was real?" The old man's words left the middle-aged man speechless for a moment.
The old man paid no heed to the stunned middle-aged man. He looked at the gradually fading golden light in Luoyang City and smiled faintly, "It seems that he has won again. It's a pity that a Human Dao Sacred Artifact passed down from ancient times has been lost. From today onwards, no, perhaps in the near future, the Yu King Bell will no longer exist in this world!"
Hearing these words, the middle-aged man, who had been silent, shook his head, disagreeing with the old man's statement.
"No! It's not a matter of pity. If a Human Dao Sacred Artifact can be forged to protect a world, then the destruction of the Yu King Bell is not a loss."
"A Human Dao Sacred Artifact to protect a world? I hope he can achieve that!"
The old man sighed lightly and then disappeared from where he stood. After he left, the middle-aged man also took one last look at Luoyang and vanished.
At the same time, in Bingzhou, within the city of Yan Huang.
An unsavory old man breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally, it's done..."
