Invincible Dad-Chapter 814: Eight Desolate Cauldron

"Today, the common folk are really, truly happy..."

Sikong Jiu has been very happy lately.

Because in the plans he laid out over the years, he has successfully taken the first step for Earth—

Destroy the Moon Clan!

And he has revitalized Earth’s spiritual energy, subtly influencing all living beings on this planet to collectively embark on the path of cultivation.

Without the unexpected guest, The Supreme Emperor, it would have taken three hundred more years to complete the ’first step.’

Now, not only has this been achieved ahead of time, but an alliance has also been formed with The Supreme Emperor for the upcoming Emperor’s Fall Era, setting his mind at ease.

Good news has been following on the heels of other good news, making Sikong Jiu extremely content.

Even when he was just dining at Aunt Wang’s house, Wang’s granddaughter, who usually makes things difficult for him, looked exceptionally pretty.

Just to stop her from incessantly chattering, Sikong Jiu casually placed a small white flower on her head, and the little girl actually blushed.

Of course.

Sikong Jiu has no interest in such a seven- or eight-year-old little girl; he prefers the newly college-enrolled daughter of Brother Su from the security of the opposite building...

It’s not because the Su family’s daughter is good-looking, nor because she has a good figure, nor because she likes taking baths with him.

It’s purely because he likes learning!

What can be learned from a college freshman is definitely more than what a first-grade little girl could teach.

"Ah, today Su Xiuxiu is on break. I’ll bring her favorite snacks, and after eating, we can have a bath... I mean, study together."

Sikong Jiu scratched his head, blushing and chuckling to himself.

Suddenly.

Sikong Jiu’s smile disappeared, and he abruptly looked up at the sky, where a white crescent moon shone brilliantly against the night.

"Chang’an City has been attacked!"

"Is it the Moon Clan? But the Nascent Soul powerhouses of the Moon Clan and Ji Jie have clearly all fled into the Phoenix Nest, so logically they wouldn’t..."

"No, it’s not the Moon people."

Sikong Jiu rubbed his eyes vigorously, only to see a middle-aged man in a blood-red cloak standing ominously on the Moon’s surface.

Suddenly, he stomped his foot, and with an overwhelming force spreading outward, the starlight array that served as Chang’an City’s main defense shattered.

However, the mysterious middle-aged man didn’t charge into Chang’an City, as he didn’t seem to be targeting Chang’an City but rather the Moon itself.

Indeed.

The middle-aged man’s pressure quickly enveloped the entire Moon, along with a Divine Sense that spread out:

"From today onwards, this star shall be my palace. The ants here, hurry and pay respects to me!"

"..."

Sikong Jiu was dumbfounded.

What does this mean, a mere Venerable intending to occupy the Moon?

As a rule, a Venerable Realm in the remote corners of the Immortal Domain could, without question, occupy not just a single star, but even dozens or hundreds of star systems.

But the problem is that the Moon is different.

It appears to be a barren cultivation planet, but it’s not much safer than forbidden lands in the Immortal Domain; even Quasi-Emperors have perished here...

"Young, too young."

Sikong Jiu said with some pity, "Look at you, among millions of star systems nearby, why on earth did you choose the Solar System, and specifically the Moon?"

Isn’t Mercury appealing, or is the spiritual energy on Venus and Mars lacking?

You chose the Moon where the Emperor Realm and the Nine Phoenix Clan reside; it would have been safer even if you had chosen Earth.

As Sikong Jiu was thinking this, a white streak of light slashed out from the depths of the Sea of the Moon.

Sikong Jiu saw clearly that it was a feather from a Quasi-Emperor of the Nine Phoenix Clan; if it hit even an Immortal Venerable Realm, it would surely cause blood to spill across the star river.

Quasi-Emperor Bai He made a move!

But the unexpected happened; the Quasi-Emperor’s strike couldn’t force the mysterious middle-aged man back even a single step.

"Clang—"

Amidst a loud crash, the golden light surrounding the man dissipated, and it was then that Sikong Jiu saw a bronze giant cauldron hovering above the man’s head.

The cauldron continuously emitted golden light, and the laws of the great Dao could faintly be seen swirling within.

"This is... the Eight Desolate Cauldron!"

Sikong Jiu gasped in shock, his eyes fixated, unable to shift his gaze an inch.

An Emperor Artifact has appeared!!!

...

"Hmm?"

In Haitang Court, the Moon Phoenix Nest, the depths of the Samsara Sea, and various floating bronze coffins within the star domain.

Pair after pair of eyes simultaneously turned towards the scene.

It was not merely due to the Emperor Artifact, the Eight Desolate Cauldron, but rather because the cauldron’s owner was just too... notorious.

The seventeenth era of the Immortal Domain.

Near the forbidden area of the sea eye in the Northern Immortal Domain, a young man named Li Bahuang from the Six-winged Divine Clan emerged, carrying a palm-sized bronze cauldron. During a gathering of geniuses in the Northern Immortal Domain, he slew twenty-seven Saint Heirs and used the captured Saintesses as maids.

Utterly domineering!

It is said that this was because those geniuses had brutally killed elders of the Six-winged Divine Clan.

Ultimately, facing the furious pursuit of the major Holy Lands, Li Bahuang fought a bloody path to freedom.

Thus.

Li Bahuang made a name for himself in a single battle!

Afterward, for three thousand years, Li Bahuang vanished without a trace.

Cultivators in the Immortal Domain assumed Li Bahuang had died, having provoked too many enemies.

Until during the ten-millennium banquet of a Holy Master of a Holy Land in the Southern Immortal Domain, presumed to have been obliterated in soul and spirit, Li Bahuang appeared.

He threw the heads of more than ten offspring of that Holy Master into the banquet hall and delivered a clock, merely because the Holy Master had publicly slandered the Six-winged Divine Clan.

So Li Bahuang was hunted once again...

This time, the pursuit consisted of four Immortal Domains’ nineteen Ancient Holy Lands and Tao Lineages, deploying countless experts.

There were twenty Immortal Venerables and three Quasi-Emperors!

When the Immortal Domain again believed Li Bahuang to be undoubtedly dead, he disappeared once more.

Thirty thousand years later.

The Quasi-Emperors sensed the Emperor Realm Dao Fruit being taken.

Before the Immortal Domain had time to learn which Great Emperor had emerged, a young man sitting atop a giant cauldron annihilated a past Holy Land that had pursued him each day.

Twenty days later.

The name of Great Emperor Li Shenhuang spread to every corner of the Four Immortal Domains.

From then on, no one dared provoke the Six-winged Divine Clan, fearing annihilation.

However, since then, this Emperor Realm figure has never killed again and remains seated in the sea eye forbidden area of the Northern Immortal Domain.

The Immortal Domain thus has a humorous saying—

Generous, Li Bahuang.

Vengeful, Li Shenhuang.

...

...

The middle-aged man on the Moon could not possibly be Shenhuang Li Bahuang.

But that cauldron was without a doubt the Emperor Artifact Eight Desolate Cauldron.

Li Bahuang is one of the least talked about Great Emperors in the annals of the Immortal Domain, with a very low presence.

Yet, in Xu Lai’s eyes, Li Bahuang’s strength could rank among the top ten or even top five of the hundred Great Emperors!

The appearance of the Eight Desolate Cauldron on the Moon intrigued him, prompting him to reach out a wisp of Divine Sense.

What Xu Lai hadn’t anticipated was that he wasn’t the only one interested; there was another wisp of Divine Sense deep within the Moon.

And there was a rolling sinister Divine Sense as well as a severely weakened Divine Sense seemingly ready to shatter at any moment...

Great Emperor Jiu Feng.

Corpse Emperor Dongfang Youming.

Emperor Wanyun, Yao Yun.

Four Emperor Realm Divine Senses gathered on the Moon.
