Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

The Open Heaven Cauldron emitted no pressure, as Su Han’s cultivation base was still low and he couldn’t truly wield it.

However, the old man was knowledgeable and could tell at a glance from the intricate patterns and numerous engravings that this cauldron was extraordinary.

Furthermore, he inexplicably felt a tremendous pressure emanating from the Open Heaven Cauldron.

Such pressure had never been present, even when interacting with Saints!

"Was it the previous piece of wood, or is it this little cauldron now..."

Watching Su Han wielding his palm, the old man felt some envy, secretly thinking, "No wonder he is one blessed with fortune, dying once but living again, possessing so many supreme treasures!"

"Though I’ve never reached Saint Realm or wielded a Holy Artifact, at least I’ve seen them!"

"And whether it was that piece of wood or this little cauldron, both are far superior to ordinary Holy Artifacts!"

Of course, the old man, constrained by his cultivation base, had never seen an extremely powerful Holy Artifact, so naturally, he had no basis for comparison.

...

As for Su Han, using this Open Heaven Cauldron clearly wielded more power than the Sunset Wood.

This cauldron was naturally nurtured during the time Great God Pangu created the heavens and earth, its age was far more ancient than the Sunset Wood.

The Sunset Wood existed after Chaos transformed into heaven and earth, after countless years, nearly possessing human attributes before its existence.

Great God Hou Yi, during that time, shot down nine suns with a bow, thereby becoming renowned across the lands.

However, neither the Sunset Wood nor the Open Heaven Cauldron could be unleashed to their full potential by Su Han.

Thus, though powerful, they cannot exert much, only limitedly so.

Holding the Open Heaven Cauldron, Su Han raised his eyes, looking toward the light barrier five thousand five hundred and ten zhang ahead.

His gaze flickered, and he stepped suddenly forward, and the Open Heaven Cauldron expanded swiftly to a thousand zhang under his divine sense.

Su Han’s silhouette swept across, unexpectedly entering the Open Heaven Cauldron.

From the surroundings, nothing was visible, but from below Su Han, he could be seen holding up the Open Heaven Cauldron, forcefully charging toward the light barrier!

"Bang!!!"

A massive muffled boom resounded.

The light barrier that had previously rebounded Su Han shattered under the impact of the Open Heaven Cauldron!

Su Han seemed to have anticipated this scene long ago and thus paused not at all, treating the light barrier as if it were a fragile piece of paper.

Five thousand five hundred twenty zhang, five thousand five hundred thirty zhang, five thousand five hundred forty zhang...

Then five thousand six hundred zhang, five thousand seven hundred zhang, five thousand eight hundred zhang...

Six thousand zhang!!!

"Boom!!!"

Along with another resounding boom, Su Han beneath the Open Heaven Cauldron, suddenly paled.

The Open Heaven Cauldron of a thousand zhang also began to shrink at this moment, ultimately returning to its original size in Su Han’s hand.

"Indeed, the Open Heaven Cauldron at six thousand zhang is its limit."

Upon the bridge at six thousand zhang, Su Han murmured to himself.

His pale complexion was due to the rebound at six thousand ten zhang of the light barrier.

Every thousand zhang, the strength of these light barriers would multiply in an indescribable manner.

At six thousand zhang, Su Han could still manage, even handle it effortlessly, but at six thousand ten zhang, he was directly rebounded.

The light barrier used the most straightforward and brutal rebounding force to reject Su Han’s impact.

"Sect Master, keep going!"

"Six thousand zhang has been reached, only four thousand zhang away, and you can reach ten thousand zhang!"

"Though it might not offer the same fortune to you, it will at least elevate your grade by several levels!"

"Indeed, with the Sect Master’s comprehensive battle power and those various methods, if you improve by a few grades, you would be invincible within the Lower-Class Star Region!"

"I truly want to see what kind of peerless elegance the Sect Master would display at the Heavenly Emperor Realm!"

...

Below the bridge, many Phoenix Sect members watched with eager eyes, cheering Su Han on with anticipation.

And the old man, staring at Su Han, though silent, seemed to say—let’s see what other means you can come up with!

As if sensing this thought, Su Han slightly raised his gaze, glancing at the old man.

Then, flipping his palm, he produced another little cauldron.

This little cauldron was filled with milky white light, reminiscent of a sun, dazzlingly bright.

Compared to it, the Open Heaven Cauldron appeared dim, like a piece of bronze iron, seemingly ordinary.

However, the old man, upon seeing this little cauldron, was dismissive, a stark contrast to his response upon seeing the Open Heaven Cauldron.

"I thought it would be something extraordinary, but it’s just an ordinary Immortal Artifact!" the old man scoffed in his heart.

The little cauldron’s grade was at most a First Order Mid-Grade Immortal Artifact, perhaps even less so.

Yet Su Han was filled with confidence toward it.

Utilizing this Immortal Artifact cauldron, he would be able to exert power far exceeding that of the Sunset Wood and Open Heaven Cauldron.

Not because the Sunset Wood and Open Heaven Cauldron were of a lower grade, but because Su Han’s cultivation matched this Immortal Artifact well, and he had mastered the means to use immortal artifacts, almost able to fully unleash their potential.

Whereas the Sunset Wood and Open Heaven Cauldron, Su Han could only use as ordinary weapons.

Their benefit was that they were far ’harder’ than ordinary weapons.

"Using this little cauldron, I can exert eighty percent of my peak power."

In silence, Su Han swung his palm, and the little cauldron immediately soared into the sky, instantly expanding like the Open Heaven Cauldron.

The difference was that the Open Heaven Cauldron only reached a thousand zhang, while this soared to ten thousand zhang, nearly enveloping the surrounding bridge.

Su Han stood beneath the ten thousand zhang little cauldron, the cauldron’s body becoming somewhat transparent, clearly revealing Su Han in his white attire.

Having prepared everything, Su Han did not rush to charge but glanced at the old man, a slight smile playing on his lips.

The old man grasped this, coldly snorting as all light barriers past six thousand zhang lit up.

"From six thousand zhang to ten thousand zhang, a total of four hundred layers; if you can break through them, I admit defeat!" the old man said irritably.

"I feel like you’d be displeased if I reached ten thousand zhang," Su Han suddenly remarked.

"Nonsense, if you make it through, then I..."

The old man stopped abruptly, as though realizing something.

Su Han’s gaze glinted, a curve lifting at the corner of his mouth.

He wasn’t sure why the old man felt this way, but he did know that the old man didn’t want him to reach ten thousand zhang, even if he couldn’t stop him!

"Senior, how about we make a deal?" Su Han smiled.

"I’ll tell you one last time, don’t call me senior, I am NOT your senior!!!"

The old man gritted his teeth and shouted, "Besides, you are no longer the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor; you don’t have the qualifications to make a deal with me. Enough talking, charge at your light barrier!"
