章 35: Coercion
The carvings on the cauldron were of a dragon that was wrapped around the entire tool. It was evident at the first glance that this was not a simple item.
Excitement bubbled in Bai Rouyun's heart when she saw that the cauldron alone was so magnificent, and she could not help but look forward to the moment she would be able to concoct medicine and refine pills.
Xiao Bao looked at her expression and shook his head in exasperation. "This cauldron is a treasure of its own; it will not contract you just because you have contracted the Primal Chaos Pavilion. You will need to impress the spirit of the cauldron to contract it."
"I see," the smile on Bai Rouyun's face faltered slightly. If she was not guaranteed success, would it not mean that she was unable to use this cauldron?
Looking at the cauldron, Bai Rouyun frowned slightly and wondered what she should do.
She had to somehow get this cauldron to support her, one way or another.
"Senior, please guide me in the dao of pill refinement," she said humbly to the cauldron, and with a fidgeting heart, she dropped a bit of her blood onto the lid, waiting to see what was going to happen.
Unfortunately, nothing happened; the cauldron did not absorb the blood; neither did it show any signs of actions. The complete lack of response caused Bai Rouyun to be increasingly worried.
"Senior, I really want to learn under your banner," she said worriedly, her fingers in a tight grip, but no matter how nervous she was, nothing happened, and soon the drop of blood that had landed on the lid of the cauldron slid down and landed on the ground.
Feeling dejected, Bai Rouyun suddenly also felt anger. She had been so polite, but the cauldron had not even replied to her. Was she so easy to bully?
"Xiao Bao, do we have a hammer in the Primal Chaos Dimension?" she suddenly asked in a weird voice. The voice was so flat and emotionless that Xiao Bao was stunned when he heard it, but he quickly nodded his head.
He waved his hand, and a hammer appeared in his hand.
"Do we have any bigger ones?" Bai Rouyun asked again, her eyes glaring at the cauldron on the ground in front of her, and Xiao Bao, who was filled with curiosity, nodded his head, before the most significant hammer he could find appeared in his hands.
"Perfect." Bai Rouyun nodded her head and accepted the hammer. Even with her cultivation base, it was strenuous to lift it, but she still carried it above her head.
"Are you going to accept me as your master, or am I going to have to destroy you?" She said maliciously to the cauldron.
Hearing her words, Xiao Bao was stunned silly, his jaw dropped, and he stared at Bai Rouyun as if he had seen a lunatic. What were her plans? To bash the revered Golden Dragon Cauldron into submission?
When he realized that this was precisely what she planned on doing, his lips twitched. How violent! How could she be so crude, and would the Golden Dragon Cauldron ever accept her as a master like this?
"Still not talking?" Bai Rouyun asked maliciously and swung the hammer down with all her power. It landed on the top of the cauldron, and while it did not break nor crack, it was trembling incessantly.
"Enough?" Bai Rouyun asked with a snicker. "If not, then I can gladly give you a few more hits!"
Having said it, she did just that, the hammer landed heavily on top of the cauldron three more times, the cauldron unable to stop shaking.
When Bai Rouyun lifted the hammer once more, the cauldron finally reacted.
"Enough!" Suddenly a voice resounded in the small hut, the voice completely surprising Bai Rouyun. It was the voice of a young girl!
"Enough? Just because you say it is enough, then it is enough?" Bai Rouyun grinned. "Are you going to pledge your loyalty to me, or do you need to get bashed a little more?"
"I pledge my allegiance to you!" the voice was filled with grievance and resentment. "Drop some blood onto me, hurry, hurry, don't beat me any longer!"
Hearing the pleading but hidden grievances, the lips of Bai Rouyun twitched in amusement, but she still dropped a bit of blood onto the cauldron.
This time the golden cauldron suddenly started heating up, the blood was absorbed into the cauldron itself, and she felt their connection appearing.
The Golden Dragon Cauldron was not as strong as the Primal Chaos Pagoda, but it was highly ranked amongst the divine artifacts.
Bai Rouyun was shocked to know that the Golden Dragon Cauldron was a divine artifact, but when she was reminded of the fact that it was within the Primal Chaos Pagoda, it could not be a simple item.
Having established the contract, the cauldron suddenly changed and morphed into a small girl that looked exactly like a little doll.
"So cute!" Bai Rouyun rushed to the girl's side and began pinching her cheeks. "How could you possibly be so cute?"
"Master, please behave," the cauldron said, annoyed. "I have already been beaten by you; now you are molesting me, can you not behave normally?"
"You are my second child!" Bai Rouyun suddenly said excitedly. "Such a cute daughter, who'd not want her?
"Quickly greet your big brother and me!"
Hearing this, both Xiao Bao and the little girl's faces turned black like the bottom of a pot, and they were both extremely unwilling. But she was their master, so no matter what, they had no say.
