301 Obtaining a Forbidden Artifact (3)
The six seals collided with the green light and temporarily blocked the light. Seals began to spread out, trying to seal the green light back into the bronze cauldron.
“What?” Elder Hua’s expression changed drastically, revealing a look of disbelief.
What kind of spell was that to be able to resist this bronze cauldron?
He stared at Jiang Ming and realized that this powerful cultivator definitely had an amazing background.
A spell of this level was definitely not something that an ordinary individual cultivator could master.
Jiang Ming’s expression was still solemn as he sighed softly.
At the same time, the array formed by the seals suddenly broke inch by inch. In the end, it let out a cry and shattered.
The bronze cauldron was surrounded by light, accompanied by countless decaying and broken runes as it continued to attack Jiang Ming.
“It’s not that the seals are weak. It’s just that my cultivation is still insufficient,” Jiang Ming whispered. He had only cultivated the first level of the Spirit Restriction Seal.
The power contained in the bronze cauldron clearly surpassed the Foundation Establishment Realm by a lot. Moreover, the power that devoured life force and spirituality had a weakening effect on spells. The fact that the Spirit Restriction Seal could withstand it for a moment was enough to prove its monstrous ability.
However, the small bronze cauldron had already descended and smashed onto Jiang Ming’s chest. Blood splattered everywhere. Green light swept out and completely enveloped him in the blink of an eye.
When Elder Hua saw this scene, his eyes suddenly lit up and he was prepared to laugh out loud.
It did not matter if he was a monster! He was nothing compared to this secret treasure!
However, Elder Hua’s laughter came to an abrupt halt. He looked at the figure as if he had seen a ghost.
Jiang Ming stood in the void with the bronze cauldron embedded in his chest. His entire body was enveloped by the green light, and his skin and flesh were rapidly withering and disappearing.
However, in just an instant, his flesh and blood grew back, and his withered skin became supple and smooth again.
The green light continued to wash over Jiang Ming’s body. However, it could no longer cause any harm to his body. The power that could devour all vitality seeped into his body, as if it was offset by some mysterious force and no longer existed.
Jiang Ming reached out and took out the bronze cauldron from his chest. No matter how it trembled, it was still firmly held in his palm.
“Not bad. It possesses the mysterious power to devour vitality. However, it’s still too weak,” Jiang Ming’s gaze was calm as he commented faintly.
“How could you…?” Elder Hua’s eyes were filled with fear. He could not help but stagger back. “What kind of monster are you?”
Jiang Ming did not intend to give him any more chances. After revealing so many of his secrets, it was better to kill him as soon as possible.
His figure flashed like a ghost and descended in front of Elder Hua.
However, the bronze cauldron did not differentiate between friend and foe. The green light enveloped Elder Hua, causing his aura to instantly fall. His vitality was rapidly devoured, and his spirit base continuously emitted cracking sounds. In an instant, he became an ordinary human.
A withered corpse fell to the ground, completely motionless.
“This thing is really evil.” Jiang Ming rubbed the bronze cauldron that was still glowing and shook his head. “It seems that none of you can master it. Therefore, I’ll have to do it!”
The light on the bronze cauldron also gradually dissipated. The power accumulated by this secret treasure was completely exhausted, and it returned to silence. It was like a simple artifact that had just been dug out of the ground, filled with an aura of decay. Its entire body was covered with rust, as if it would shatter at any moment.
No one would have thought that this thing could casually devour the vitality of a cultivator at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
“This evil thing should be in my hands so that it won’t harm the other cultivators.”
Jiang Ming put away the bronze cauldron and took away Elder Hua’s storage ring. His figure flashed and quickly disappeared from the dense forest.
