Chapter 143 Transformation, the Origin of the Cauldron Spirit

Without a doubt, when the purple light rushed towards his chest, it was this butterfly pendant that emitted a burst of five-colored light, saving him from certain death. Without this pendant, he would likely be dead by now.

But I heard that my cheap father is only a martial arts master. Where did he get this pendant from? Did he make it himself? Don't even think about it. Not to mention the Xiao family, you can't find a high-level weapon refiner in Feiyue City.

Those few people, though they hold the title of weapon refiner, what do they know about weapon refining? They can only forge a few ordinary swords and knives when they have nothing else to do. As for being able to refine something good that can protect the body, they have no ability whatsoever.

Could it be that Dad got it from Mom, whom he'd never met? Hmm, that's possible. In the entire Xiao family, apart from the deceased Dad, no one knew who Mom was. If that's the case, then Mom must have been no ordinary person.

But why didn't Dad bring Mom home back then? Perhaps Mom's status or position was too high, and Dad couldn't win her over? If that's the case, doesn't it mean Dad was seduced and then abandoned?

The more Xiao Chong thought about it, the more confused he became, and he gradually felt like he couldn't keep up. Perhaps because he was thinking too much, the dizziness and lightheadedness became even more severe.

I've lost too much blood, I need to replenish it! When it comes to things that greatly replenish qi and blood, what can compare to animal cores?

Xiao Chong took out the two huge beast cores he had obtained from the blue-white unicorn bull and chewed them vigorously in his hands.

"Crunch... crunch... ptooey..."

Saliva filled the sky, and droplets of saliva flew alongside the remains of the beast cores. In a wolfish frenzy, the two enormous beast cores vanished in an instant.

"Uh..." Xiao Chong wiped his mouth with a lingering sense of satisfaction, patted his stomach, and let out a long burp.

The beast cores of the One-Horned Bull were enormous, each one the size of an infant's head. The two giant bulls, one blue and one white, had cultivated for many years deep within the Southern Wilderness, their very essence and blood contained within them, making them far superior to ordinary beast cores.

Therefore, before he could finish burping, the essence blood contained in the beast core began to rage within his body, like giant waves rolling endlessly in the ocean.

Starting from the lower abdomen, this essence and blood rapidly rush to the limbs and bones, filling every inch of skin and every pore with vigorous energy and blood, as if it were about to burst forth from the body's surface at any moment.

His Qi and blood were becoming increasingly vigorous and circulating faster, constantly rising within his body, giving Xiao Chong a feeling of wanting to fly.

As this vital energy finally transformed into unstoppable torrents, forcefully rushing into his brow, a searing pain shot through him. The overwhelming, swelling sensation, as if his head were about to burst, sent a jolt through his body, and he fainted.

At the same time, somewhere between Xiao Chong's eyebrows, the spirit of the cauldron, who was sitting with his eyes closed inside the Purple Cloud Cauldron, suddenly stirred and opened his eyes.

"Hahaha... I've lived here for over a thousand years, and today I'm finally going to take human form!"

Ding Ling laughed wildly, his face displaying an expression of extreme pride, excitement, and madness.

"Come on! Such pure blood essence, take as much as you want, I'll take it all!"

Like a beggar who hasn't eaten for many days, suddenly seeing a fat chicken, the spirit of the cauldron opened its mouth wide and frantically sucked in the surging blood and qi.

As a massive amount of vital energy continuously entered the cauldron spirit's body, the cauldron spirit's almost transparent body began to slowly expand like an inflated balloon. With each breath of vital energy it inhaled, its body solidified a little more, gradually becoming clearer from a blurry state.

As the last trace of life force was swallowed, the cauldron spirit's body suddenly shrank, then expanded outwards, disappearing from its original spot with a "whoosh".

Xiao Chong felt as if he were having a dream. He dreamt that someone was appearing and disappearing inside his body, roaring and screaming in his mind.

As he struggled to see the person's face clearly, the person suddenly burst out of his body, as if to tear him in two. Xiao Chong was startled and immediately woke up from the dream.

"This dream is so real, it's like I'm experiencing it myself... Wait, it doesn't seem like I'm dreaming, otherwise why would someone be patting my face?"

Xiao Chong furrowed his brows into a knot, opened his eyes, and wanted to see which blind fool dared to provoke him.

Before them, a boy dressed entirely in white, half-squatting and half-kneeling, was gently patting his cheek with a curious expression.

"Hey, wake up..." the boy in white called out as he patted him, his grip tightening.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed?! Don't you know you shouldn't hit someone in the face?" Xiao Chong shouted angrily, glaring at the white-robed youth.

"ah!"

Startled, the white-clad youth somersaulted twice in the air before landing in front of Xiao Chong. Taking this opportunity, Xiao Chong carefully examined the white-clad youth's appearance.

The young man in white was not old, and looked even younger than Xiao Chong, but in terms of looks, he was far superior to Xiao Chong.

Upon closer inspection, he possessed striking features: sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, red lips, white teeth, a graceful and elegant bearing, and a handsome and refined appearance. In a word, he was simply handsome—stunningly handsome, devilishly handsome, and utterly captivatingly handsome. Especially when coupled with a hint of wickedness in his eyes, he was even more breathtakingly beautiful.

That's right, she's stunningly beautiful! Even though she's a man, the only word to describe her is "stunningly beautiful."

"Well, although he's good-looking, he's still a notch below you when it comes to heroic spirit." At first, he felt a little ashamed, but after finding the other's shortcomings, Xiao Chong began to regain his confidence.

"Hmm, why does he have a small horn on his head?" The discovery of this major flaw in the other person finally put Xiao Chong at ease.

"...A magical beast?" Xiao Chong glanced at the horns on the white-robed youth's head and asked softly with a hint of mischievousness.

"You're the monster, your whole family are monsters!" Upon hearing the teasing, the white-robed youth was stunned at first, then reacted and started jumping up and down cursing, just like a shrew in the world.

"Mind your manners!" Xiao Chong hadn't expected the white-robed youth to react so strongly, and immediately asked without any politeness, "So who the hell are you...?"

Fortunately, the other party didn't understand this sentence, but replied arrogantly, "I am the third prince of the East Sea Dragon King!"

After saying that, he put one hand on his hip and used the other to flip his hair back with an air of self-importance, only to have it blocked by the horns on his head, making it look even worse. For a moment, he looked extremely embarrassed.

"The Dragon King of the East Sea? Never heard of him before. And the Third Prince is even more of a mystery..." Xiao Chong felt a bit confused and wanted to sort things out carefully.

Just as her mind began to race, something suddenly occurred to her, and she pointed at the white-robed youth in astonishment, saying, "...No, you are...the spirit of the cauldron?"

"That's right, it is indeed the Crown Prince, but now he has taken human form!"

The young man in white forgot his earlier embarrassment in the blink of an eye and once again stylishly tossed his hair back.
