Bearing (Part 2)
Yao Wuji accused, “Under your leadership, Pill Cauldron Sect’s reputation has been tarnished to the point that people are questioning if we qualify to compare to the eight great sects, further adding that formation casters deserve more respect than us.”
“Both of us are crucial in our own ways. We still have the advantage over them,” challenged Daoist Yun Dan.
“You really think so? Zhuge Xiaosheng was ambushed in our territory. You failed to save him in time and even lost Uncle Yuan De. Had Zhuge Xiaosheng not given it everything he had, I would also be dead. Everyone now agrees that formation casters are the future. Do you still not get it?”
“Junior Brother Yao, mind your tone! You’re also an alchemist!”
“That’s precisely why I know what future Pill Cauldron Sect needs.”
“What are you insinuating?”
“It’s time we choose a new patriarch.”
Bang! Daoist Yun Dan crushed the table he sat at. “You’ve turned to Shi Dengtian?”
“I’m merely choosing someone who can do the sect justice.”Daoist Yu Dan rose to his feet and pointed at Yao Wuji’s face, seething but speechless his close brother would turn his back on him.
“Hahaha, Junior Brother Yao, you shouldn’t say that. Senior Brother Yun Dan is still our patriarch,” commented Shi Dengtian, coming up the narrow path, beaming.
“Senior Brother Shi.” Yao Wuji bowed to Shi Dengtian with a polite smile, triggering Daoist Yun Dan.
“Brother Yao, that was impolite of you to say. Although Uncles Hong Yuan and Hong Yi are looking to implement a reform, every elder must agree if we want to change our patriarch. Don’t let me hear you speak so rudely next time.”
“I am merely speaking out for the sect’s future. I believe we need a more competent leader. As you could invite two Ascension Realm ultimate immortals and reinforced us, I believe you will take us farther than we have been able to go thus far.”
“Yao Wuji!” roared Daoist Yun Dan, qi fluttering his green robe.
“Senior Brother Yun Dan, are we not even permitted a voice under your leadership now?” scoffed Yao Wuji.
Daoist Yun Dan felt so vexed, yet despaired, that he could only heave a heavy breath and leave, shaking his head in disbelief and defeat.
I apologise, Senior Brother Yun Dan, but this is the only way I can win Shi Dengtian’s trust, Yao Wuji inwardly apologised, beating himself up for speaking to Daoist Yun Dan the way he did.
“Divine Soul Formation has worked its magic on you, huh, Junior Brother?” remarked Shi Dengtian.
“I am at your service, Patriarch,” conveyed Yao Wuji, genuflecting before Shi Dengtian in his best attempt of feigning reverence.
“Hahaha, never did I imagine my junior, who never liked me, would be kneeling before me.” Shi Dengtian sat down on the stone stool Daoist Yun Dan sat on moments ago. “You may rise.”
“Thank you, Patriarch.” Yao Wuji showed no discontent as he stood back up, keeping his promise to Mu Yu.

Revealing Cauldron contained more text than Formation Palace as it recorded something that was linked to the significance of the cauldron.
“At the dawn of civilisation, everything comes and goes. Dao begets one. One begets two. These two forms produce four phenomena. The four phenomena act on the eight trigrams. Yin and yang are the origins of dao. Thoughts must manifest in the mind for them to take form.”
“In comprehendible language this time,” Xiaoshuai requested, yawning after two days of waiting around.
“It’s about the primordial yin and yang. I don’t really get it. My question is why primordial yin yang is brought up here; I thought there was only one copy of it and that I already have it. I’m more and more convinced Formation Palace and this cauldron are connected, but my Primordial Yin Yang hasn’t reacted. Help me decrypt this.”
Once Mu Yu cast Gentle Wind Interlinked Hearts Formation, Xiaoshuai received the influx of text Mu Yu had interpreted and explained, “It says that dao is natural. Nine dao items hold the stars together. Five element spirit items spawn everything else. Before the world was given a name, they were the mother of all things. What the heck?
“Primordial three layers reform as one. Desolate world has lasted longer than countless races. I like cushions and embraces. The world is ruthless. It treats everything like sacrificial straw-dogs. Eh? This sounds like cussing.
“Dao is dao but also not dao. A name is a name but also name. Isn’t this from the bullcrap storyteller in Waterstream City?
“Heaven’s long-lasting reign ends at dawn. Heaven’s long-lasting reign ends at dawn. The spirit Shadow God binds isn’t part of the five elements. Profound. Weird!”
“Is there a point in me understanding how the world is made up?”
“Beats me.”
“Well, the cauldron sure hasn’t budged. At least I don’t know how to make it budge. What am I supposed to do?” After four hours of analysing, Mu Yu still couldn’t figure it out.
“Mu Yu, what are you thinking about? You’re flooding my mind with your thoughts.”
“I reckon it’s talking about me.”
