“What? Not only has he received the Fire Mystic Cauldron, but he also plans on refining the second Soul Commanding Pill Flame?” Within the great hall, Gu Hanshan gazed at his own father in utter shock, feeling an intense surge of jealousy and resentment welling up in his chest.

Gu Daofeng also found it hard to believe. Exactly how bountiful was this inheritance from the Four Saints? A Golden Core had already greatly boosted Fang Lin’s realm and now, both the Fire Mystic Cauldron and the Soul Commanding Pill Flame, items they usually cherished exceptionally, were being thrown at Fang Lin recklessly.

Even him, Gu Daofeng, as the Leader of the Pill Sect, despite his prestigious status, only possessed one type of Soul Commanding Pill Flame.

“Fang Lin seems to have already obtained a type of Soul Commanding Pill Flame inside that ancient cave. Now he wants to refine a second one. This isn’t just an opportunity, but a path to death.” Gu Daofeng indifferently remarked.

Upon hearing this, Gu Hanshan felt slightly relieved, a trace of resentment in his eyes.

“It would be best if he would be devoured by the Soul Commanding Pill Flame and be burned until only ashes remain! That would appease my rage!” Gu Hanshan’s voice carried a vengeful tone.

Gu Daofeng looked at his son, feeling a sigh building in his heart. Blinded by jealousy, his son was no longer the proud and confident Gu Hanshan of the past.

Gu Daofeng realized that Fang Lin had become a nightmare in Gu Hanshan’s mind. If Fang Lin doesn’t die and continues to be dazzling, then Gu Hanshan would go deeper and deeper into the mire, unable to pull himself out, eventually leading to his own ruin.

In fact, Gu Daofeng’s suppression and targeting of Fang Lin were all for the sake of his own son.

If Gu Daofeng had no children, he would be more than happy to see Fang Lin’s rise and may even take Fang Lin as his disciple, letting him inherit his position as leader in the future.

But Gu Daofeng had this son, Gu Hanshan, his only child, he naturally wanted to save the best for him.

And anything that would threaten Gu Hanshan’s future, Gu Daofeng would not hesitate to erase, regardless of the cost, to pave the way for Gu Hanshan’s future.

As a father, he may not have been wrong, but as a leader, he definitely was.

Outside the Purple Mist Great Hall, Han Luoyun silently gazed in the direction of the Pill Array, holding the Message Transmitting Jade Slip in her hand.

“Refining the second Soul Commanding Pill Flame? This kid really dares to risk it all.” Han Luoyun slightly furrowed her brow, then exposed a faint smile.

Han Yinyue was standing at the side, her exceptionally beautiful face displayed a hint of worry. As a Pill Refiner, she was extremely aware of the terror that the Soul Commanding Pill Flame held. Refining one was already risking one’s life, and if he was to refine a second one, it would simply mean stepping one foot into the Ghost Gate.

Throughout history, the Pill Sect had seen numerous talented individuals who were arrogant and conceited, thinking they were invincible, and went on to seek a second flame to refine.

In the end, out of all of them, only one had succeeded in refining, while the others were all incinerated to the point not even a trace of them was left, dying tragic deaths.

It was by no means an exaggeration to say that the chances of failing to refine a second Soul Commanding Pill Flame was as high as 90%, and that once failed, one would undoubtedly lose their life.

“Father, if he fails halfway, is there a way to save him?” Han Yinyue asked. She couldn’t help it; she was too worried. If Fang Lin died, what would happen to her sister’s eyes?

After a moment’s pondering, Han Luoyun replied, “There are ways, but the cost is too great. And even if he could survive, he would probably end up becoming useless.”

At Han Luoyun’s words, Han Yinyue’s heart sank rapidly to rock bottom. What was the difference between becoming useless and dying?

“This Fang Lin is really too reckless!” Han Yinyue somewhat blamed him.

However, Han Luoyun just laughed and glanced at his daughter, saying, “I quite admire this little fellow. Besides his talent, just this courage alone is far superior to those ordinary geniuses.”

Han Yinyue was speechless. She didn’t think that Fang Lin had any courage, he was purely reckless and brainless in his actions.

She, Han Yinyue, had always been cautious in her actions, almost never doing something she wasn’t confidence of. If she were in Fang Lin’s situation, she would definitely think it over repeatedly, understanding clearly each and every risk and benefit, make all the necessary preparations before even considering refining the second flame.

But what about Fang Lin?

Without uttering another word, he directly began the refining process. Was this not simply implying that he was in a hurry to court death?

Looking at Han Yinyue, Han Luoyun laughed without laughing, “Didn’t you quite admire this little fellow? How come you’ve lost faith in him now? ”

Han Yinyue felt helpless, “But the risk is simply too great. Aren’t you worried, Father? After all, he is the only hope to cure Xiaoxing’s blindness.”

Upon hearing these words, the smile on Han Luoyun’s face disappeared, “I believe in him. A real genius would not fall so easily. If he truly dies, it just proves that Fang Lin is not that kind of peerless genius who stands above everyone else.”

Fang Lin sat cross-legged in the center of the Pill Array, with the dark purple flame drifting in front of him. Within this flame came the ear-piercing demon beast roars.

Fang Lin gave a slight smile, as if looking at an old friend, released his Inner Strength and pulled the flame into his body in an instant.

Boom!

The next moment, Fang Lin’s whole person was swallowed by the dark purple flame, his entire body was alight.

This scene made everyone’s eyelids jump, as if the person enveloped by the fire was them.

“Burn him! Burn him to death! Better yet, burn him until not even bones are left!” Zhao Dengming and others were internally yelling with malice. Their faces were filled with menacing excitement, as if they had already seen the tragic sight of Fang Lin being burned to ashes by the dark purple flame.

Most people were worried about Fang Lin, especially Dugu Nian, who was standing below the Pill Array. His hands were tightly clasped together, and his face had turned somewhat pale.

The four Protecting Elders’ faces were solemn; they had received Han Luoyun’s command that if Fang Lin showed any signs of failing to refine the flame, they would immediately take action and forcibly expel the dark purple flame from Fang Lin’s body.

Although doing so would severely harm Fang Lin’s body, it would ultimately save his life.

However, although the dark purple flame was burning around Fang Lin’s body, appearing supremely terrifying, Fang Lin seemed like a man with no concerns, sitting there quietly, seemingly unaffected by the agony of the flame’s burning.

Upon closer inspection, it seemed that Fang Lin’s body showed no signs of being burned by the flame, not even a single hair was missing.

Upon seeing this, the crowd marveled, praising the difference between geniuses and ordinary people.

But in the next moment, something even more surprising happened.

A blue flame suddenly bloomed within Fang Lin’s body, entangling with the dark purple flame, the two flames enveloped Fang Lin, jumping frenziedly.

“Not good! This is the original Soul Commanding Pill Flame within Fang Lin’s body resisting the dark purple flame. The two are fighting each other, which greatly increases the chance of backlash!” An elder shook his head and said.

The four Protecting Elders’ hearts tightened, ready to save Fang Lin at any moment.
