Landing inside the courtyard, Jian Shen whose thoughts were completely revolving around the pot didn't even bother letting the women out of the World Crest.
Travelling to the massive backyard, Jian Shen placed the pot down and asked, "How do I... You know turn it on?"
Chuckling in union, it was Qingyu who answered the question.
"You only need to pour a drop of your blood inside the pot, Jian Shen."
"That's it? Those idiots who possessed this for so many years couldn't think of doing such a simple thing?"
Chuckling once again, Juewang said, "I'm sure they've tried to do this many times, because binding an object by using your blood is a common practice in the Mortal Realm as well, husband. But if just any random blood could activate this treasure, it wouldn't be the real deal."
Nodding his head, Jian Shen pulled out the Myriad God Sword to cut his finger, when Qingyu hastily stopped him and said he shouldn't use her to do this.
Not bothering with many questions, Jian Shen was about to use the Sword of Despair when Juewang rejected this idea as well and said that she didn't want to have any part in harming him.
Rolling his eyes at how they were borderline close to melodrama, Jian Shen like a savage used his teeth to bite his thumb finger.
Squeezing a drop of his white blood which was something that very few races possessed, Jian Shen had it drop onto the pot which was covered in too much rust and dust to even reveal a glimpse of it actually looked like.
At first, nothing happened other than the drop of blood falling in one spot while tiny parts of it flew and landed on other spots.
But soon, his blood began letting out a golden glow and at the same time started multiplying in size until the entire pot was covered in a liquid layer of golden glow on both the inside and the outside.
This was also when Jian Shen started to smell the scent of something burning.
The smell, however, wasn't like something when it normally burnt, and instead, it felt as the flames were destroying and recreating.
Burning the thick layer of residue which had attached itself to the pot over the years, and most likely due to descending through multiple realms which caused the surroundings to heat too much and melt the particles around it causing them to stick to it, the pot pushed all of the foreign particles on it outside and made them fall away from the pot.
As the dense black liquid which was a mix of various foreign dust particles and filth left the pot, Jian Shen could see what the pot actually looked like.
The pot showed off a bright gold colour on the outside and the inside.
And other than that, it looked like a completely normal pot.
There were no mysterious or fancy designs anywhere, no special patterns, no anything else.
It looked like a pot which someone had made while using gold.
"This is it... "
"The Nirvana... "
"Flame Cauldron... "
Deliberately finishing each other's words to make the situation seen mysterious and exciting, the three of them had a subtle smile on each of their faces.
"It really is what I thought. One of the Nine Heavenly Creations, the Nirvana Flame Cauldron."
Indeed it was Qingyu who first guessed the identity of the pot.
After all, a spirit of one of of the Nine Heavenly Creations herself, it would be impossible for her to not identify another of them.
The Nirvana Flame Cauldron.
A treasure which stood at the epitome of all fire-based treasures.
Other than being capable of burning everything in the myriad realms, the pot allowed them to recreate whatever it burnt from the ashes.
In a way, it was even capable of completely burning a herb into ashes and then bring back only the most important part of it to be used during pill creation.
This was what made the Nirvana Flame Cauldron not just a treasure of pure destruction but also the most sought after cauldron by the alchemists who stood at the apex.
Not to mention all of this, there was something else which made the Nirvana Flame Cauldron a treasure which all the large forces wanted to possess.
The flames produced by the pot could be used to completely burn any living creature from the inside and get rid of only the impurities, or destroy the entire body and bring it back into existence while making sure that none of the negative aspects of it were recreated.
This was also what made Jian Shen the most eager to try and get his hands on it.
Even though Jian Shen's body had been purified of impurities many times until now, it wasn't as if his body didn't have any impurities inside it.
After all, just breathing the impure air around him made various impurities enter his body all the time.
And therefore, Jian Shen was curious to try and see what would happen when his body would get remodelled by the Nirvana Flames produced by the cauldron.
The question, however, was that who would control the cauldron while he was inside it.
Neither Qingyu for Juewang could use Qi on their own due to which it had to be any other human that needed to do it.
But, he couldn't hope for any of his women to do this either because he didn't think they possessed enough strength or experience to try and control the Nirvana Flame Cauldron.
