Chapter 1297: The Second Fusion
December 10, 2017
After brewing for over ten minutes, the Yellow River Mother finally erupted with full force!
In an instant, the nurturing mother transformed into a ferocious demoness, and within the blink of an eye, half of the port was devoured. Lu Hai Kong blinked, and the entire port was completely submerged and destroyed. Even the hundred-meter waterfall where Lu Hai Kong was located nearly met the same fate, creating a terrifyingly massive spectacle.
Fortunately, Lu Hai Kong had prepared in advance. When the Yellow River flooded, the port had already been evacuated, so despite the near-total destruction, there were almost no casualties. However, some citizens downstream were affected to some extent.
Luckily, Lu Hai Kong had sent people to notify the downstream areas beforehand, and Liu Bei and Sun Jian's forces had also taken precautions, minimizing the overall losses.
Everything unfolded exactly as Lu Hai Kong had planned, with no significant mishaps. He effortlessly achieved his goal, and the impact in various aspects remained within his anticipated range, marking a perfect conclusion.
After the successful conclusion, Lu Hai Kong wasted no time and immediately returned to Luoyang with the Yu Emperor Cauldron.
Upon returning to Luoyang, Lu Hai Kong swiftly delivered the Yu Emperor Cauldron into the Heavenly Firmament Palace to offer it as nourishment to the Emperor Cauldron.
Since consuming the Yu Emperor Cauldron, the Emperor Cauldron's power has been increasing daily, reaching a level that could be described as awe-inspiring.
As the master of the Emperor Cauldron, Lu Hai Kong could sense that, over the past two years, while the Emperor Cauldron had almost completely digested the Jizhou Bell, its growth had reached a bottleneck.
It was important to note that the Emperor Cauldron, despite its mysterious origins and immense potential, was created by Lu Hai Kong himself. Therefore, its foundation was undoubtedly inferior to that of the Yu Emperor Cauldron. The successful consumption of the Jizhou Bell was largely due to unseen assistance from someone in the shadows.
Even after consuming the Jizhou Bell, the Emperor Cauldron's power still fell short of the legendary Crimson Sky Sword. However, if the Emperor Cauldron could successfully consume a second Yu Emperor Cauldron, the situation would be vastly different. Its power would undoubtedly surge to a whole new level.
As the master of the Emperor Cauldron, Lu Hai Kong naturally wished for its strength to grow. Without hesitation, he offered the Yu Emperor Cauldron and initiated the Imperial Cauldron Fusion.
However, Lu Hai Kong had not anticipated the impact of his action when he presented the Yu Emperor Cauldron to the Emperor Cauldron.
At the moment the Emperor Cauldron enveloped the Yu Emperor Cauldron, in Luoyang City, a tall and robust man looked up at the imperial palace with a deep gaze. He then turned and entered a house, crushing a black crystal in his hand.
At the same time, in the mysterious land beyond the borders, Qin Mu, who had lost a clone two years ago and had just recovered from his severe injuries, revealed a cold smile.
"The last piece has fallen into place. The grand curtain is about to rise!"
...
In the mysterious land beyond, within a majestic palace complex shrouded in darkness, one of the palaces began to tremble as Lu Hai Kong suppressed the Yu Emperor Cauldron.
A chilling aura emanated from the palace, causing the dark clouds above to seemingly freeze and solidify.
In the same palace complex, within the palace supported by twelve colossal pillars, a figure exuded dominance with every gesture, seated upon a black dragon throne. "The Yu Emperor Cauldron has rebelled. That audacious rebel has made his move once again!"
"Your Majesty, this evil artifact that devours human-made divine artifacts must be eliminated!" declared a crimson-haired, blood-eyed scholar in black official robes.
The person seated on the dragon throne glanced at the attendant by his side, who understood his unspoken command and discreetly stepped away.
Moments later, the attendant returned and reported in a soft, high-pitched voice, "Your Majesty, we have confirmed that the person's world is the Three Kingdoms world. It seems the coordinates of the Sui-Tang realm have been located, and they had an encounter four years ago. Pei Yuanqing from the Li Tang side personally intervened but was repelled, and as for the Yang Sui side, Yuwen Chengdu seems to have fallen there!"
Hearing this, the black-haired scholar with crimson hair and blood-red eyes below the palace flashed a cold glint in his gaze. "The third brave general of Sui-Tang retreated, and the second brave general was defeated. This Three Kingdoms world seems extraordinary. Zhao Gonggong, who is the ruler of that world? Cao Cao? Liu Bei? Or Sun Jian?"
The attendant serving cautiously beside the dragon throne shook his head. "None of them. Currently, the Three Kingdoms world is not unified, and the most powerful warlord in that world is an Outsider named Lu Hai Kong. He also possesses that evil artifact!"
Upon hearing the term 'evil artifact,' both the person on the dragon throne and the crimson-haired scholar below couldn't help but reveal a cold glint in their eyes.
Of course, they didn't care about the evil nature of the artifact; they were concerned about the terror of the Emperor Cauldron, which could devour the Yu Emperor Cauldron. If given time to grow, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"Hasn't the Sui-Tang side taken any action after suffering such a significant loss?" The crimson-haired scholar below pondered for a moment before asking.
"Reporting to Mr. Li, in recent years, the Sui-Tang side has been accumulating strength, seemingly waiting to strike with full force once the Three Kingdoms world's passage opens!" Zhao Gonggong replied.
"When will the passage open?" The person on the dragon throne furrowed his brows.
"Your Majesty, according to our intelligence, it will be less than a year!" Zhao Gonggong's body bent slightly as he responded cautiously.
"A year? That's too long!" The person on the dragon throne shook his head.
"What does Your Majesty mean? Do you intend to lend them a helping hand, assist them in opening the passage, and drive out the wolves?" The crimson-eyed scholar's eyes sparkled with anticipation.
At that moment, the person on the dragon throne stood up and waved his hand with overwhelming dominance.
"No. I mean to strike with full force and eradicate this unstable element! I will not tolerate anyone who dares to threaten my empire!"
"Yes!"
Both the crimson-haired scholar below and Zhao Gonggong beside the dragon throne trembled and responded with lowered heads.
At almost the same time, in the Beyond the World, several other powers holding the Yu Emperor Cauldron artifact also reacted.
Even in the Mysterious Land, these powers were dominant forces, and their attitudes towards the Emperor Cauldron were surprisingly unanimous.
No ruler would be foolish enough to provide Lu Hai Kong with resources and experience. They would not give any chance to a threat like him; once they sensed the slightest sign of danger, they would crush it without hesitation!
At this time, Lu Hai Kong was unaware of the formidable opponents he would face. If not for someone's intervention, he might have been crushed long ago. After years of effort, it remained to be seen if Lu Hai Kong had gained any advantage against these colossal forces.
