Chapter 174: The Nine Cauldrons
At the dusky bottom of the lake, Deng Geng stared at the line of words carved on this black metal treasure map.
“One of the nine cauldrons?” Deng Geng felt troubled. “Getting the treasure map was actually not enough. It still needed one of the nine cauldrons! So troublesome……” Of course Deng Geng knew of the nine cauldrons. After the invincible Emperor Yu united the land under the heavens, he partitioned the land into nine areas.
Simultaneously, Emperor Yu gathered many precious metals from the nine areas and forged nine huge cauldrons.
The nine cauldrons represented the Nine Prefectures.
Since then…… the people of the Nine Prefectures, from ordinary civilians to the big figures of the eight sects, needed to worship Emperor Yu and the nine cauldrons during the annual ritual. This cauldron became an item needed during the sacrifice.
