The ground began to shake, but Dong Yuan was not shocked. He had long known that Qin Luo was no ordinary person. The surface of the black cauldron cracked open, revealing a bronze-colored body. A rich vitality spread out, and the lotus flowers in the courtyard even bore fruit.
Qin Luo gently flicked his hand upwards, and the black cauldron in front of the hall rose from the ground, its powerful pressure enveloping the Qingdi Temple.
Dong Yuan trembled all over and couldn't help but want to kneel down, and even Xuan Qing was so overwhelmed that he couldn't lift his head.
Hua Ying's eyes were filled with laughter; she knew that even if Qin Luo couldn't cultivate, he could still roam freely in all directions.
Xuanqing's eyes widened. He had previously thought Qin Luo was weak because he had to stop and rest after walking for half a day. Now he realized that his elder brother was actually so powerful.
Dong Yuan knew that Qin Luo had not used brute force, but rather that he had gained the approval of this Nine Cauldrons.
Qin Luo's hand slowly fell, and the bronze cauldron, now restored to its original form, returned to its original position.
The ground shook slightly.
Dongyuan came to his senses and said solemnly, "Master Qin, this Nine Cauldrons are now yours."
Qin Luo looked at the black cauldron and shook his head. "Thank you for your kindness, senior, but I am unworthy of it."
"Master Qin, whoever can activate the Nine Cauldrons, the Nine Cauldrons belong to them. That has always been the principle. You don't need to be polite; this is what you deserve." Dong Yuan was very excited. After so many years, he had finally found a powerful person who could activate the Nine Cauldrons, which was also one of his missions.
Qin Luo shook his head again, his eyes serious as he said, "I have been resurrected and only want to live for myself once more, so this Nine Cauldrons should be left to those who need it more."
Dong Yuan was stunned. He hadn't expected anyone to voluntarily give up the Nine Cauldrons. The Nine Cauldrons not only possessed great power, but were also a symbol of honor and a proof of status.
Seeing Qin Luo's determined gaze, Dong Yuan said nothing more. What he pursued might even surpass the Five Emperors.
Qin Luo smiled and looked at Hua Ying, "Let's go visit the Azure Emperor first."
"please!"
Dongyuan extended his hand in invitation.
Qin Luo and Hua Ying walked into the hall.
Xuanqing came to Qin Luo's side, his eyes full of curiosity, "Big brother, how did you do that?"
Qin Luo gently rubbed Xuan Qing's head and said softly, "Nothing belongs to me, but everything can be used by me. I respect it, and it respects me in return."
"It's that simple?"
Xuanqing found it somewhat unbelievable.
Qin Luo nodded. "The greatest truths are the simplest."
Dongyuan sighed, "The principle is simple, but it's probably very difficult to truly grasp its meaning."
"That makes sense."
Xuan Qing nodded in agreement.
The hall was empty except for a statue of the Azure Emperor and three sticks of incense that were almost burned out in the incense burner.
Qin Luo looked at the statue of the Azure Emperor. He had witnessed the fierce battle between the gods in the river of time. The Azure Emperor had besieged the founder of the Dragon Tiger Temple and even had his sights set on the position of the Heavenly Emperor. He was not a perfect person, but after the Flame Emperor and the Yellow Emperor were both severely injured, the White Emperor fell, and the Black Emperor disappeared, it was the Azure Emperor who single-handedly carried the banner of the human race and laid the foundation for a strong and stable situation for the human race in the Three Realms. He made an indelible contribution to the human race, and some emperors even posthumously conferred upon him the title of Human Emperor.
A stick of incense sat near the offering table. Qin Luo looked at Dong Yuan and asked, "Senior, do you need money for this incense?"
Seeing that Qin Luo was considering offering incense, Dong Yuan shook his head repeatedly, even a little nervous, "Master Qin, these incense sticks are useless to the common people, they are free."
Qin Luo and Hua Ying each picked up three incense sticks, and Xuan Qing, seeing them pick up incense, also picked up three incense sticks.
Dong Yuan was actually feeling a mix of emotions. He hadn't expected Qin Luo to come to the Qingdi Temple to offer incense twice, after all, the Qingdi had a grudge against the founder of Longhu Temple.
Qin Luo lit the incense, bowed, and performed three bows. When he looked up, he found that the incense in his hand had gone out.
Hua Ying's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing this.
This is an ominous sign.
Qin Luo lit three incense sticks with the candle flame again, but the incense in his hand quickly went out. He tried a third time, and the incense in his hand went out as soon as it was lit.
"Things shouldn't happen more than three times."
"Senior, I can only apologize to you. It's not that I'm not sincere, but perhaps my time has come to an end."
Qin Luo put down the three unlit incense sticks in his hand and bowed to the statue of the Azure Emperor.
After the three incense sticks in the dark blue were lit, emitting pale yellow smoke, He rose into the air and placed the three incense sticks into the incense burner.
The three incense sticks in the flower shadow emitted plumes of thick golden smoke.
Dong Yuan stared in astonishment at Qin Luo's incense sticks, which he couldn't light. Years ago, Qin Luo's three incense sticks shone with golden light and contained great fortune, but now he couldn't even light them.
Xuan Qing scratched his head, unsure of what was going on. "Big brother, how about we use three incense sticks instead?"
"No."
Qin Luo smiled and shook his head.
Dongyuan shook his head and sighed softly, somewhat regretful.
Qin Luo looked at the statue of the Azure Emperor and said, "Senior Azure Emperor, I think you still have a remnant of your soul left in this world."
Hua Ying and the others all looked at the statue of the Azure Emperor.
After the Azure Emperor statue absorbed the golden clouds and smoke, a figure in a green robe slowly emerged. The moment the Azure Emperor's projection appeared, Dong Yuan knelt on the ground excitedly, tears streaming down his face, and said, "Azure Emperor, this old servant knew you would always be here."
"Dongyuan, you've worked hard all these years."
The Azure Emperor raised his hand to help Dong Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, to his feet.
"I would be content to see the Azure Emperor again." Dong Yuan trembled with excitement. Over the years, he had longed to see the Azure Emperor again, even if only in his dreams. Now his wish had finally come true.
The Azure Emperor had a lotus pattern between his eyebrows, wore a loose blue robe, and appeared tall with flowing black hair, giving him an otherworldly air. His dark blue eyes held reverence.
Qin Luo and Hua Ying bowed respectfully.
