Chapter 1772: Offer the Souls to the Cauldron

Clouds and warm mists began rising from the cauldron, as if it had a potful of steaming boiling water in it. Countless fist-sized swords, blades and spears dazzled brightly, while slowly hovering around the cauldron.
Yu Yao paused in the midair, hands covering his erect eye tightly. Earlier on, a flying sword hit him and broke his three defensive treasures and twelve powerful magic talismans in a row, then penetrated his erect eye and shredded his brain.
His thoughts were shredded as well.
He was the conqueror of a rich great world, a ruler of that world's Dao of nature, with a title of Yu. He hadn't gained a full control of that world's great Dao of nature, but he was a genuine world conqueror.
Powerful intelligent creatures didn't exist in that great world. Instead, the creatures in that world were mostly strong beasts like lion eagle beasts. These beasts were brave, combative, and vast in numbers. They could serve as the best slave warriors...With nothing but money, power...and...
Suddenly, Yu Yao lost his eyesight. Unwillingly giving a sigh, Yu Yao fell heavily from the sky. The ruler of a great world fell. His soul screamed with fright as it transformed into a thin beam of light, flowing into the cauldron.
Buzz!
The Yu Clan man figure on the cauldron's surface gradually turned clear. As more and more Yu Clan souls merged into the cauldron, the figure slowly turned as clear as the Jia Clan warrior and the lion eagle beast figures, looking like an embossment.
A heavier suppression was laid on all Yu Clan beings in this world. A large number of Yu Clan nobles who were far away from the city and had survived the wave of sword light launched by Ji Hao felt their bodies suddenly turn strangely heavy, aching and limp, as if a giant mountain was lying on their bodies. They couldn't even fly anymore, drifting down to the ground uncontrollably. Standing on the ground, they gasped for air and felt so exhausted.
”No, no, this isn't good...Go, go now!” Some high-grade Yu Clan nobles screamed in haste as they hurriedly ran away from the battlefields with their people, drawing back to the north where Liang Zhu City was located.
These Yu Clan nobles had figured it out as well. This monster-like giant cauldron was generating some weird kind of seal through devouring its targets' souls, so it could attain a magical power to kill and suppress a whole species, just like what it had done to the lion eagle beasts, Jia Clan warriors, and the Yu Clan nobles who used to stand high above the whole world.
In the future, as long as this giant cauldron kept standing in the city, all Yu Clan and Jia Clan beings who approached Pu Ban City would be killed immediately by it... Even if they stayed far away from the city, their powers would be suppressed largely by the cauldron, and the closer they got to the city, the greater the suppression would be. Because of this cauldron, the nature-given fighting capacity of Jia Clan and Yu Clan beings could no longer put them in a dominant position against the humankind.
'Fortunately, they only have one bloody giant cauldron like this!' Some Yu Clan nobles thought.
If human beings had two or three cauldrons like this, and if all cauldrons' suppression powers could be combined...Pan Gu Motherland would become a forbidden area to all Yu Clan and Jia Clan people. If that happened, how could they fight on this land? How could they plunder resources from this world? They wouldn't even be able to set a foot on this land.
