Chapter 939 - Thousand Ding Glitter Cauldron

The giant cauldron that had been given to Lin Mu had some very special requirements that made it unusable to most people, despite it being a peak grade spirit tool.

”Whoever made this really made a mistake, huh…” Lin Mu muttered.

The thing was that the Thousand Ding Glitter Cauldron was a defective product. Its creator originally wanted to make a pseudo immortal tool and thus added a lot of precious materials and component to the cauldron along with complex formations.

But what happened in the end was that his skill was simply not enough and the cauldron never became a Pseudo immortal tool. Usually, if this happened to any spirit tool, they would simply become a grade lower than that, being a peak grade spirit tool.

This was still really good and would be valuable.

But the Thousand Ding Glitter Cauldron was different in this matter. Due to the high energy threshold circuits that were added by its creator to make it reach the pseudo immoral tool level, it made it so that no normal cultivator would be able to use it properly.

And since it was a peak grade spirit tool, only those at the Dao Shell realm and Dao Treading realm could use it, anyway. But even for them, the spirit Qi requirements were so high that it made it impossible for them to make proper use of it.

Usually high spirit Qi consumption could be offset by the use of auxiliary spirit Qi channeling formations that could supply the spirit Qi to the cauldron instead of the cultivators themselves, but the way the formations were added to the cauldrons meant that this method was not compatible at all.

And neither could it be offset by making multiple people use it at the same time as the cauldron only worked for the person that imprinted their spirit sense on it. With such restrictions, the Thousand Ding Glitter Cauldron was left lying in the storage pavilion of the Light Harmony sect for hundreds of years.

It wasnʼt that the people of the sect hadnʼt tried using it, but it was simply not worth using it when there were other cauldrons that could do the same with less effort.

ʼHmm… if its creator was someone who could even attempt to make a pseudo immortal tool, they should be pretty well known. Itʼs obviously not Jing Wei that made this and neither is it someone from the Jing clan, then who is it?ʼ Lin Mu wondered.

And when he thought this, the cauldron responded as if showing its origin to Lin Mu. He could feel some information appear in his mind.

This was nothing but the signature the creator of the Thousand Ding Glitter Cauldron had left on it. This was something a lot of weapon forgers and spirit tool refiners did and were commonplace.

”Daoist Jiadi?” Lin Mu muttered, not recognizing the name.

He was certain that it was not someone from the Light Harmony sect, as it was already present in the information that this cauldron was not made by the sect but obtained from somewhere else a long time ago.

Lin Mu checked the records he had just in case and soon found some information about Daoist Jiadi.

”Oh? He was from the western continent?” Lin Mu was surprised.

”This means this cauldron is from the time when the five continents still existed… this is old… very old.” Lin Mu muttered.

Despite being old, the cauldron looked rather well maintained, and there were no points of damage on it. The cauldron itself was black in color, with gold carvings imprinted on its surface.

It had a lid with a triangular top and six ring handles around its body. The cauldron also had four legs that were shaped like a bullʼs hoof. The cauldron was over three meters tall and two meters wide.

”This is probably the work of Jing Luo.” Lin Mu guessed.

Lin Mu had told him what kind of a purpose he wanted the cauldrons for and Jing Luo might have picked this one out of the list that the Light Harmony sect gave him. Since it was technically the best one in quality out of those that fit the purpose.

The reason that made the Thousand Ding Glitter Cauldron useless for most was that they couldnʼt supply the spirit Qi needed to control it, but for Lin Mu, that was not a concern.

After all, he was not going to refine pills in it and was not going to supply spirit Qi to the formations. Rather, he would just be heating and refining gold in it. This was something he could have done with any other large cauldron, thus it wasnʼt an issue.

”Well… since I got it, I may as well keep it.” Lin Mu said.

The Light harmony sect had quite literally gifted this to Lin Mu since they had no use for it. Instead gifting it to Lin Mu would bring them more benefits instead of just letting it rot in the storage.

Giving a peak grade spirit tool as a gift was not something that even top sects would do easily. They too only had a limited number of such spirit tools with them and each one had a great value.

”Letʼs get started on this, then.” Lin Mu said as he threw in the gold ingots into the Thousand Ding Glitter Cauldron.

~DENG~DENG~DENG~

The sound of metal banging against metal could be heard as the gold ingots struck the inside of the cauldron. Once all of the gold ingots were thrown into the cauldron, they were filling it to nearly two thirds of its total capacity.

”It should reduce by quite a bit once I melt it down…” Lin Mu said as he started to heat it up.

~shua~

Flames wrapped the cauldron completely and activated some of the formations of the cauldron.

”Oh? The passive heat spreading formations work without direct spirit Qi?” Lin Mu was surprised.

He thought that all features of the cauldron needed active spirit Qi infusion.
