The cauldron was a full fifty feet tall, with five legs at the bottom.
Its body was ancient and divided into three sections, each with different and subtly changing patterns.
The top section depicted the sun, moon, and stars; the middle, mountains, rivers, and seas; and the bottom, the myriad aspects of human life.
Chaos Sacred Cauldron! This was the true form of Four-Unlike.
Such a massive fellow, no wonder the Golden Winged Bird couldn't carry it.
Four-Unlike's soul body lightly leaped down from the cauldron.
"Little Master!"
The Spirit Shark Whale knelt directly in the small river, "It's dangerous outside, don't go out."
"You all watch it carefully." Four-Unlike patted his own true form, then turned to look at the Golden Winged Bird.
"This should work now. If not, then it's you, this bird, that's useless."
Seeing Four-Unlike say he was useless, the Golden Winged Bird flapped his wings and flew over, opening his large mouth and swallowing Four-Unlike whole.
As soon as Four-Unlike was swallowed, the Golden Winged Bird frantically flew back, plunging into Qian Duoduo's Spiritual Vein and returning to the Lower Spirit Sea in a single breath.
In the abyss of Qian Duoduo's Lower Spirit Sea, there was now a plump, white soul body.
It was Four-Unlike.
At the same time, Qian Duoduo's hands and feet began to swell visibly, and he quickly activated the Entering Saint Key, desperately pouring his Spiritual Awareness into the groove.
"Buzz!"
The groove, filled with Spiritual Awareness, was activated, and the passage opened, a huge suction force pulling at Qian Duoduo.
However, this time Qian Duoduo's Spiritual Awareness was too vast, and it also carried the soul body of a Sacred Artifact.
The Artifact Refining World sucked three times consecutively but still couldn't pull away all of Qian Duoduo's Spiritual Awareness.
Before Qian Duoduo could even try to surge towards the entrance, the entrance automatically closed, and a portion of his Spiritual Awareness was directly severed, remaining within the Artifact Refining World.
Whether it was his hands, his feet, or something else, Qian Duoduo had no time to see, no time to think.
With a "whoosh," Qian Duoduo emerged from the Refining Saint Wall.
Qian Duoduo immediately looked around the Refining Saint Wall; Gong Dian and Shi Chongyang were gone, leaving only his own physical body still sitting on the stone meditation cushion.
As his Spiritual Awareness returned to his body, his almost depleted Spiritual Vein was instantly filled with Spiritual Qi.
"Swollen!"
This was the only sensation throughout his body.
Qian Duoduo quickly circulated the Everlasting Wealth and Nobility Art and the Golden Life Devouring Dragon Art, continuously compressing his entire Spiritual Vein, raising it from crimson to persimmon red in one go, from the first level of the second layer to the second level.
He continuously suppressed his cultivation, which was why he didn't transform from Foundation Establishment Great Perfection to Early Stage Golden Core.
The swelling sensation disappeared, and Qian Duoduo looked at the Lower Spirit Sea; the abyss there had deepened by another measure.
In the abyss, those two purple fish were the significantly larger Purple Eyes.
Besides Purple Eyes, a large, chubby boy was also submerged in the abyss.
However, this chubby boy had his eyes closed, unlike when he first entered and was looking around.
Was he injured when he exited the Artifact Refining World?
Qian Duoduo had Purple Eyes gently touch him, but he didn't react.
He seemed to be in a coma, not dead.
"This little guy, he's really persistent, he truly gave his all to get out." Qian Duoduo sighed and began to seriously consider his current situation.
Aside from bringing out an unconscious soul body, he hadn't gained any insights into refining Sacred Artifacts.
Qian Duoduo moved his hands and feet, finding that these limbs were still usable. Although he didn't know how long he had been inside, at least he finally got out and wasn't trapped inside.
Suddenly, a red light shone on Qian Duoduo, and in a flash, Qian Duoduo was teleported to the narrow gate at the entrance of Zongshi Ridge.
Recalling how he had been seen through completely when he crossed the narrow gate last time, Qian Duoduo steeled himself and walked towards the narrow gate.
As he crossed the narrow gate, Qian Duoduo heard someone in his mind say to him: "Treat him well."
