Chapter 153 - Terrifying Side Effects

"But, what can a palm-sized cauldron do? It can't be used as a weapon, a spear, or a crossbow, can it? Can it be used as a stone to throw around?" Xiao Feng carefully stared at the Divine Wood King Cauldron for a long time, but he still could not find anything wrong.

Ling Xiao looked at Xiao Feng like he was looking at a fool, and said helplessly: "Since it's the astrologer's most powerful treasure, then of course there's something special about it. Isn't it a bit too much of a waste to throw it like a rock?"

"All right, but I can't think of anything else to do with it." Xiao Feng said as he spread out his hands.

Hearing that, Ling Xiao raised the Divine Wood King Cauldron in his hand and recounted how the Transcendent Daoist had used her Divine Wood King Cauldron.

After Xiao Feng heard this, his eyes stared straight, "What, there's such a sinister thing in this world? It can actually store inner strength, it is indeed a big treasure. "

"However, I have been preparing for too long when the Dustman used it. If I hadn't been merciful and given him the chance to perform, he wouldn't have noticed it at all, even if I had to rub a knife against his neck." Ling Xiao shook his head and said.

If I were to use this Divine Wood King Cauldron, I would have to temporarily lose my ability to move. It would be dangerous, knowing that there are many ways to kill a person, and even more so the number of ways to defeat a person. Xiao Feng shook his head, he could not understand the function of this treasure.

After Ling Xiao heard this, he fell into deep thought. Since this Divine Wood King Cauldron could become the astrologer's most powerful treasure, then there must be a reason. Although the astrologer was not one of the top gangs in the Jianghu, but amongst the average forces, she was still quite famous.

If the Divine Wood King Cauldron was just a useless object, then it was not worthy to be the most powerful treasure of the astrologer.

In truth, it depends on the way you use it, right? Being able to store inner force Qi is already a very rare advantage, not to mention that this Divine Wood King Cauldron is able to absorb poison, refining it into a terrifying inner force that ordinary people do not dare to touch, and adding on the terror of the Great Manipulation of Transformation, if you do not have a deep level of inner force, facing such a terrifying technique, you will only be able to survive. Ling Xiao analyzed the situation rationally before speaking up.

"But in truth, in the astrologer, up till now, there doesn't seem to be any terrifying experts." Xiao Feng said, puzzled.

Hearing that, Ling Xiao could not help but roll his eyes at Xiao Feng, and then said: "Eldest Brother Xiao Feng, to think that you have been living in Jianghu for such a long time, although his reputation is not great, but have you heard of Ding Chunqiu's name?"

Hearing that, Xiao Feng was startled, he then thought about it and suddenly realised: "It's that Free and Unrestrained Sect traitor, I never expected Sect Master Ling to have heard of this kind of news, all those years ago, it was also because Ding Chunqiu created the infamous Free and Unrestrained Sect, and was despised by the Wu Lin righteous faction, so no one asked about it."

"Look, at that time, there must have been something special about the astrologer that made them notorious. Although their ways of doing things were incredibly bad, it is undeniable that they have very strong powers." Ling Xiao said somewhat excitedly.

After Xiao Feng heard this, he asked in puzzlement: "No way, Sect Master Ling, you're still speaking up for them?"

Seeing that, Ling Xiao shook his head helplessly: "It is not simply because I hate evil that I want to be called righteous. So what if the technique is vicious, this is only proof of its strength, as long as the person who uses it has a sense of justice, no matter how vicious the technique is, as long as it can be used to eliminate evil, it is righteous."

These words made Xiao Feng want to scratch his head, but he could do nothing. He could only look conflicted, as if he did not understand what Ling Xiao had said.

Seeing this scene, Ling Xiao sighed: "On the surface, it's not that you're a righteous person, but that you're a true righteous person. True justice is deep in the hearts of people, just looking at the surface is not enough, which is why you're deceived by those people who act righteously on the surface.

Hearing that, Xiao Feng's face became ugly, but what Ling Xiao said was right, it was because of this thought that caused him to be reduced to such a state, thus he humbly accepted the lesson.

However, just as Ling Xiao and his were about to mount the horses and leave, eerie wails came from not too far away.

"Hmm? Why does this voice sound so familiar? " Xiao Feng said as he frowned.

Ling Xiao listened attentively for a while, then nodded and said: "You did not hear wrongly, this person's voice is very familiar, it's the Chen Zi who fought just now."

"What?" Dusty? From the sound of it, he doesn't seem to be very far from us. After Xiao Feng heard this, his face was filled with surprise.

"Let's go and take a look. It doesn't seem that simple. The Transcendent Daoist is not that strong, but he is not weak either. How could he be beaten up to such a state?" Ling Xiao said with a serious expression.

Vaguely, Ling Xiao felt that the Transcendent Daoist's wails had something to do with the technique that he was training in.

The inner Qi stored within the Divine Wood King Cauldron was extremely sinister and scary. Furthermore, the Transcendent Daoist had absorbed so much in one go, so her body would probably not be able to handle it.

Thus, the two of them mounted their horses and turned around, using their fastest speed to rush towards the direction of the sound.

Not long after, Ling Xiao saw the emaciated and pale Wu Chenzi under a tree. At this moment, both of his hands were tightly pinching his body, and his entire body was twisting uncontrollably, as though he was in great pain.

"What's the matter with you?" Seeing that, Ling Xiao frowned and asked.

Upon hearing that it was Ling Xiao, the Transcendent Daoist immediately reached out his bloodied hands and begged Ling Xiao: "Sect Master Ling, hurry up and return the Divine Wood King Cauldron to me. I need it, I can't take it anymore!"

Xiao Feng who was at the side felt that something was wrong and almost vomited.

At this moment, not only did the Transcendent Daoist appear to be in a sorry state, his body was also emitting a terrible stench, as if something was rotting.

Ling Xiao did not heed Chen Zi's request, and said coldly: "Did you absorb too much Yin energy, causing your body to be unable to withstand it, and become like this?"

Upon hearing his words, the Transcendent Daoist nodded his head and said with a hoarse voice, "That's right, that's right. Sect Master Ling, quickly save me!"

However, Ling Xiao remained indifferent. Lowering his head to think, he raised his head and said: "That's not right, it's not only because of the Divine Wood King Cauldron. Your current state, should be a side effect of the Great Manipulation of Transformation."
