Revealing Cauldron’s Owner

“Xiaoshuai, pause your play time for a second!”

“Okay. Guys, come with me.” Xiaoshuai descended with the four qis revolving around me. He scrubbed Dabai and Dahei’s head, then questioned, “What’s the matter, Mu Yu?”

“You named my Primordial Yin Yang Xiaohei and Xiaobai, right? How do you earn the acknowledgement of Dabai and Dahei?”

Dabai and Dahei stared aggressively at Mu Yu and then charged him.

“What are you two doing?” As Mu Yu prepared to cast a formation, Xiaobai and Xiaohei cut Dabai and Dahei off. “Now that’s what I’m talking about.”

“Stop, stop!” demanded Xiaoshuai, getting in between the four.

Dabai and Dahei, now frustrated, ignored Xiaoshuai to try and attack Mu Yu.

“I don’t recall saying anything that offensive,” Mu Yu stated.

“No, Dabai and Dahei already have an owner,” Xiaoshuai clarified, jumping onto Dahei to try and calm the latter.

“Say what? Who? You?”

“No, not me. The two of them said they can sense their owner’s qi on you, though,” answered Xiaoshuai, dealing with Dabai jabbing him in the face.

“On me? Dad? Did Dad earn their approval back then? That would make him the owner of the cauldron, then!”

“Maybe. They said their owner told them to stay here to protect Pill Cauldron Sect.”

“How?”

“I don’t know. All I know is they want you to release their owner.”

“Have you told them about Dad’s state? Calm the two of them down first.”

“All right.”

Mu Yu took out his jade piece with Soul Fixing Formation, drawing the attention of Dabai and Dahei away from Xiaoshuai and onto the jade piece. “Third Heaven Palace set up your owner and nearly killed him, understand?”

Dabai and Xiaobai bumped into each other then tried to dive into the jade piece.

“Wait, don’t ruin the jade piece!”

Worried, Mu Yu sent his spiritual energy in after the duo. Dahei tried nudging Ku Mu awake to no avail. The duo subsequently dove back out of the jade piece, circling in the airspace of the cauldron. When Mu Yu emerged, he saw the two crashing into the wall and then circling around him.

“Xiaoshuai, can you interpret?”

Seemingly understanding Mu Yu’s request, Xiaohei and Xiaobai descended onto his shoulder to deliver Dabai and Dahei’s messages straight into his mind.

“You mean you two are protecting something Ku Mu left behind?” Xiaoshuai continued. “Because you have Ultimate Concealment Bloody Guardian, Ku Mu is essentially living in you. That’s why they’re recognising you, albeit just.”

“What are their plans?”

“Dabai and Dahei can bring out their full power with Ku Mu’s help. Ku Mu wanted them to stay behind to test those who can enter Revealing Cauldron.”

“In other words, Dad wants to pass on Primordial Yin Yang to someone in Pill Cauldron Sect even though he’s acknowledged as the owner?”

“Full marks. Dabai and Dahei won’t reveal it as Ku Mu told them to keep the secret, but I reckon Primordial Yin Yang is closely connected to something in Pill Cauldron Sect.”

“Can they help Pill Cauldron Sect?”

“They’re not here to protect the sect per se. They’re here to pass on the inheritance Ku Mu wanted to pass on to the next generation.”

“What inheritance?”

Dabai and Dahei informed them that Mu Yu would need to get through several tests if he wanted Revealing Cauldron to acknowledge him.

“I’ve beat them all. Hit me with what you’ve got,” Mu Yu declared.

Dabai and Dahei did a lap around Mu Yu, then slammed the cauldron wall, invigorating Mu Yu’s mind. Each time they crashed into the wall, they aimed at the text, which would cause the text to protrude. When Dabai hit them, they turned white. When Dahei hit them, they turned black. They never hit the same text twice, and they hit them in a methodically. From where Mu Yu stood, they were an eight trigrams bereft of order.

Once Dahei finished up, the cauldron juddered and sounded hollow. The eight trigrams beneath him still revolved, while the horizon in this new, spacious world resembled a starry sky.

Dabai and Dahei orbited around each other, drawing a yin yang symbol. Once the symbol took shape, they decelerated. The black and white halves split apart once formation lines around started undulating, and out came an individual.

“Are you Pill Cauldron Sect’s disciple?”
