The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron-Chapter 362 - : Personal Grudges
Chapter 362: Chapter 362: Personal Grudges
The so-called Alchemy Tao duel is not limited to Pill Refining. As long as it is related to Alchemy Tao, a duel can be initiated.
Of course, it’s not just about dueling. Generally, when two people duel, they increase the stakes, with the winner claiming the bet.
So to a large extent, it can also be called Alchemy Tao Betting.

However, if one feels that they are no match for the opponent, they can refuse the bet, and no one can force them.
Moreover, if a bet is made, even if one loses, they can’t deny it or backtrack later. At that time, the steward of Black Cauldron City will supervise and adjudicate.
This link has always been very popular and lively at the earlier understood Pill Refiner Conferences.
Fang Lin sat there, yawning boredly, having no interest in duels or bets.
But troubles can’t be avoided if you want to, sometimes they come looking for you on their own.
“Fang Lin, how about we fight one round?” Li Jianlong said to Fang Lin with a smile on his face.
Fang Lin looked at him and snorted, “Why should I fight with you? What’s in it for me?”
Li Jianlong gave a slight smile, “Very simple, if you win, I’ll give you a treasure. If you lose, you just have to apologize to my Li Family.”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the side of Qian Country became a bit off.
Everyone knows about the conflict between Fang Lin and the Li Family. They are not ordinary enemies, they are almost rivaling blood feuds.
The worry about coming to Black Cauldron City this time was that the two people from the Li Family would have a conflict with Fang Lin.
For this, Elder Su repeatedly told the three to restrain themselves and resolve any grievances after the Pill Refiner Conference.
Yet looking at it now, Li Jianlong intends to challenge Fang Lin under this opportunity.
If Fang Lin loses the duel to Li Jianlong, then he will have to apologize to the Li Family.
This is not as simple as apologizing. Fang Lin represents the Purple Mist Sect as a true disciple, the apprentice of Sect Master Han Luoyun. The Purple Mist Sect hasn’t apologized to the Li Family yet, so how can a disciple with such a prominent status apologize? How would that look? freewēbnoveℓ.com
If Fang Lin really apologizes to the Li Family, then the Purple Mist Sect will be the first not to spare him.
“What treasures do you have? Show it to me first.” Said Fang Lin, lazily.
Upon hearing this, a streak of light flashed in Li Jianlong’s eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled up. He slapped his Nine Palace Bag and took out an item.
“What’s this?” Fang Lin asked, puzzled, while looking at the gourd in Li Jianlong’s hand.
Li Jianlong remained silent and Li Feng at his side sneered, “This gourd contains Heavenly Blue Liquid, isn’t that enough to tempt you?”
Hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared in Fang Lin’s eyes, then he started laughing, “Since you’re delivering a good deal to my doorstep, I can’t just refuse it. I accept the bet.”
The Heavenly Blue Liquid is a heavenly treasure and can only be found underneath the Heavenly Blue Bamboo.
The effect of this liquid is excellent. After consumption, it can detoxify the martial artist’s body, making their inner strength more harmonious and pure.
Heavenly Blue Bamboo is rare and grows slowly, making it difficult to form a large scale. And this Heavenly Blue Liquid can only form underneath a bamboo forest.
So in general, this Heavenly Blue Liquid is hard to collect. A gourd of Heavenly Blue Liquid like this, if taken out, would make many powerhouses green with envy.
Although the consumption of Heavenly Blue Liquid by Heavenly Origin or above powerhouses would reduce its effectiveness significantly, it is still a great choice for their younger generation.
Li Jianlong’s confidence in this duel must be absolutely full, to be able to tempt him with a gourd of Heavenly Blue Liquid. At least according to Li Jianlong himself, he definitely has full confidence that he won’t fail.
“Miss Su, we are going to bet, you won’t stop us, would you?” Li Jianlong asked Su Xiaotong, who was not far away, with a smile.
Su Xiaotong turned her head and looked at Li Jianlong, somewhat confused, “Who are you?”
Li Jianlong’s smile froze on his face.
Fang Lin waved his hand, looking impatient, “If you want to duel, start soon. Don’t fuss about, say it, what are we betting on?”
Seeing Fang Lin’s indifferent face, Li Jianlong chuckled inwardly and said, “Let’s bet on plant identification, how about that?”
Fang Lin snorted, “How?”
Li Jianlong said, “Very simple, let’s borrow a plant identification book and see who recognizes more types of plants.”
“Okay.” Fang Lin agreed, almost without any hesitation.
People from Qian Country frowned, wondering what was wrong with Fang Lin. Why did he agree without even a second thought? What if this was a trap set by Li Jianlong?
Li Feng stood on the side, his hands folded in front of him, a smile of triumph on his lips.
Others might not know, but Li Feng did. Besides being a genius in Alchemy Tao, Li Jianlong is good at taking care of medicinal plants.
Li Family owns a large piece of medicinal field, all taken care by Li Jianlong alone, where various medicinal plants are grown.
Also, while Li Jianlong was in Li Family, he read various plant books and had a good understanding of all kinds of plants.
It can be said that within the Li Family, not many elders could surpass Li Jianlong when it comes to understanding medicinal plants.
At the previous plant identification stage, Li Jianlong deliberately kept a low profile, waiting for Fang Lin here.
In fact, when the Snow Lotus with Pair Flower was presented, besides Fang Lin, Li Jianlong also recognized it after a short observation, but he didn’t say anything.
Although he was surprised that Fang Lin could identify the Snow Lotus with Pair Flower, Li Jianlong still had absolute confidence in himself.
Soon, Li Jianlong borrowed two identical plant identification books from a Pill Alliance steward, but there were only pictures and no text annotations inside.
The duel between Li Jianlong and Fang Lin also caught attention from many people, especially from Yun Country and Meng Kingdom, who watched with interest.
“Interesting, the people from Qian Country are fighting amongst themselves.”
“I guess these two must some grudges from before.”
“What are they betting on?”
Fang Lin and Li Jianlong were separated by ten steps with a Pill Alliance steward standing in the middle looking at them, and then shouted, “Start!”
Immediately, Li Jianlong and Fang Lin began to annotate the plants in the books. The judgement for the duel’s victory or loss was based on who had a higher accuracy rate and identified more plants within two hours.
A lot of people gathered around, but no one disturbed them. After all, it was a duel supervised by a Pill Alliance steward, and disturbing it would have violated the rules.
“Oh, this guy is fast.”
“Yeah, Fang Lin is a little slower.”
“Fang Lin is in danger.”
