Qin Chen activated the Eye of Forbidden Knowledge, gaining insight into the condition of the Skeleton Helmsman.
The Skeleton Helmsman's skeletal body was incredibly tough, its hardness almost able to ignore attacks below the level of Martial Emperor.
However, correspondingly, this skeletal physique, once injured, would take an extremely long time to fully recover, requiring a massive amount of resources and time.
"Is there any way to speed up the recovery?"
"The method is as the Meow Emperor said; if you can activate the Demon Suppressing Cauldron to absorb the demon energy in this Heavenly Demon Secret Realm, this seat can enter the cauldron to cultivate, and the recovery speed can be increased by several times. Perhaps in ten days or half a month, I can fully recover," the Skeleton Helmsman said expectantly.
"Activate the Demon Suppressing Cauldron?" Qin Chen nodded.
Next, he began to wholeheartedly refine and activate the Demon Suppressing Cauldron.
The restrictions within the cauldron were extremely complex. When Qin Chen first refined it, he merely simplified it, but now, he needed to fully control it and activate it.
He immediately calmed his mind and began to study it carefully.
It took a full three days before Qin Chen completely mastered the Demon Suppressing Cauldron.
"Buzz!"
With a light activation, the black Demon Suppressing Cauldron rapidly soared into the sky, and a horrifying sucking force suddenly surged from its mouth.
Boom!
In an instant, the demon energy from the entire Soul of the Wronged rushed in, madly pouring into the Demon Suppressing Cauldron. Even the various wrongful soul energies could not withstand the cauldron's devouring, howling as they were pulled in.
If someone were standing in the sky at that moment, they would be shocked to see the resentment and demon energy from the entire Soul of the Wronged madly swirling in like a long whale sucking water, extraordinarily terrifying.
Whoosh!
With every passing moment, countless wrongful soul energies and demon energies surged in; this energy was enough for a strong being like the Skeleton Helmsman to cultivate for a long time, yet now it was easily devoured.
Moreover, as the devouring continued, the patterns on the Demon Suppressing Cauldron became increasingly clear and eerie, an aura seemingly from the ancient wilderness frantically emanated, suppressing the Skeleton Helmsman to the point of breathlessness.
"What a terrifying momentum."
Even Qin Chen was shocked. Such might indicated that the level of the Demon Suppressing Cauldron definitely surpassed that of a Nineth Level Treasure, at least being among the top tier of Nineth Level Treasures.
However, Qin Chen's current cultivation was too low, only able to unleash a mere one percent, or even a thousandth or ten-thousandth of its power.
As the Demon Suppressing Cauldron devoured, the misty scene originally shrouding the Soul of the Wronged suddenly dissipated. With a massive amount of wrongful soul energy being absorbed, the deeper scenes of the Soul of the Wronged gradually became clearer.
Faintly, one could see a mountain of corpses and bones deep within the Soul of the Wronged, with white bones piled everywhere.
Just as he was astonished, suddenly—
"Roar!"
"Who has disturbed my slumber? Damn it!"
An angry roar resonated through this ancient land.
Immediately after.
Crack, crack, crack!
A skeleton deep within the Soul of the Wronged suddenly stood up, wielding a bone knife in its hand. Its body leaped and swiftly slashed down towards Qin Chen. This skeleton had been sealed in the Soul of the Wronged for tens of thousands of years, already weathered and pockmarked, but having endured such a long time without decay, it was evident that it was once a formidable being. Under this one strike, it seemed to traverse the distance of the void, its bone knife arriving before Qin Chen in an instant with an aura that seemed capable of breaking the heavens.
What?
Qin Chen was startled, but quickly reacted, the Fan Tian Seal appearing in his hand, smashing it out in an instant.
