The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron-Chapter 411 - : Entering the Third Layer

Chapter 411: Chapter 411: Entering the Third Layer

“What a mighty beast bone!” the elder in the black robe exclaimed, yet he didn’t let his guard down. A black longsword appeared in his hand, exuding a subtle glow.

“Attack!” Fang Lin roared, dashing forward again. Swinging his bone club, he aimed a powerful strike at the elder’s head.

The elder countered with his sword, but the shock from Fang Lin’s formidable strength forced him backward, bringing a serious look to his face.

Seeing this, Fang Lin intensified his relentless attack. His greatest advantage was the sturdy bone club, which allowed him to unleash his full strength. The average martial artist couldn’t handle his powerful blow.

Despite this, the elder in the black robe was formidable. Using only the black longsword, he managed to hold his own, not allowing Fang Lin to suppress him in the fight.

Of course, Fang Lin was also not disadvantaged.

Frustrated with the extended fight, the elder’s face was grim. Suddenly, his longsword transformed into a sky full of sword shadows that swooped towards Fang Lin.

Fang Lin focused his gaze, slapping the Nine Palace Bag and withdrawing a Pill Furnace, into which he immediately took refuge.

Clang, clang, clang!

The black sword shadows continuously struck the Pill Furnace, producing an incessant metallic sound. Despite the dense and fierce sword shadows, the Pill Furnace stood firm, unpierced.

The elder let out a loud roar and charged, aiming his sword directly at the center of the Pill Furnace.

However, looking down, he found that Fang Lin was no longer inside the Pill Furnace.

His face paled, and as he turned around abruptly, he saw a bone club aimed straight for him, with no time to react.

The elder in the black robe yelled out, hastily turning to evade, but he was a moment too late. He was hit harshly on the left arm with the bone club.

Crack!

With that solid hit, the elder’s left arm broke and hung limp at his side.

Fang Lin flashed a grin and executed the Nine Heavens Step Skill again, immediately creating distance between him and the elder.

Although the elder showed no signs of pain on his face after being injured, he looked extremely annoyed. He had clearly not expected to be injured by Fang Lin.

Immediately, the elder doubled his speed, hurtling towards Fang Lin like a shadow.

“So fast!” Fang Lin gasped. The elder’s speed was now on par with his Nine Heavens Step Skill.

The elder was practically provoked by Fang Lin. How could he, the consciousness of the Pill Pole Tower, lose to a teenager?

Boom!!

The elder unleashed a sword strike, and in an instant, a massive Sword Qi swept through, passing by Fang Lin with an earth-shattering momentum.

Just then, beads of sweat trickled down Fang Lin’s forehead. It was fortunate that he had been on guard and managed to evade in time. Otherwise, he would have been in great danger had the Sword Qi grazed him.

“Young one, face another strike of mine!” The elder launched a second wave of Sword Qi, still as fierce as ever and packed with a spirit of annihilation.

Fang Lin gritted his teeth, his Inner Strength surged forth as he retaliated with another club strike.

Boom!!

The bone club collided with the black sword shadow. Fang Lin spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backward.

The black sword shadow dimmed a bit but didn’t disappear and continued to aim for Fang Lin.

“Damn it!” Fang Lin cursed under his breath. With a swift step, he quickly changed direction, avoiding the final onslaught of the black sword shadow.

However, what came next left Fang Lin stunned.

Three consecutive black sword shadows attacked, utterly blocking off Fang Lin’s path of escape, forcing him into a corner.

Fang Lin almost cursed out loud. This was the power of Earth Element Ninth Layer? It was clearly the power of a martial artist at the Heavenly Origin level.

But there was no time to argue about this. Faced with three fierce sword shadows, Fang Lin had nowhere to run. He could only confront them head on.

Immediately, he slapped the Nine Palace Bag, drawing out the Boundless Stone and a blood-red longsword.

“Open!” he roared, pouring all his Inner Strength into the blood-red longsword and intentionally letting some of his blood seep into the sword.

The blood-red longsword seemed to awaken in an instant, emanating a terrifying fluctuation.

As Fang Lin brandished the blood-red longsword, a stunning blood glow appeared instantaneously and effortlessly shattered the oncoming three black sword shadows. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Meanwhile, the Boundless Stone was quietly thrown from Fang Lin’s hand whizzing straight towards the elder.

“Ah!” The elder in the black robe yelled. He evidently hadn’t anticipated Fang Lin’s move and was instantly torn apart.

Fang Lin’s condition wasn’t any better. The aftermath of the three black sword shadows, although shattered by the blood-red longsword, still hit Fang Lin hard, inflicting injuries all over his body and leaving him severely weakened.

Nevertheless, Fang Lin had won, defeating the elder with the Boundless Stone.

In the blink of an eye, the elder, who was initially torn apart, reappeared in one piece, and Fang Lin’s injuries disappeared entirely. It was as if the intense battle had never occurred.

The elder looked quite upset and glared at Fang Lin angrily.

Fang Lin, however, chuckled and said, “Senior, I won.”

The elder wished he could slap Fang Lin out of the Pill Pole Tower, but rules were rules. As the consciousness born of the Pill Pole Tower, the elder had to abide by its rules.

“You won, you may proceed to the third floor.” The elder nearly spat through gritted teeth.

Fang Lin exhaled in relief. He had been concerned that the old fellow would go back on his word and find some way to obstruct him again.

“Boy, what did you use to defeat me just now?” The elder seemed unable to let go and asked unwillingly.

Fang Lin tossed the Boundless Stone in his hand and asked, “This is the Boundless Stone, have you heard of it, Senior?”

The elder looked puzzled and shook his head, evidently unaware of what a Boundless Stone was.

It wasn’t surprising. The Boundless Stone was part of Boundless Mountain. Boundless Mountain, even in Fang Lin’s previous life, existed in legends and myths.

“Kid, the third floor is your limit. You will not be able to enter the fourth floor.” The elder said.

Fang Lin furrowed his brows, “Why?”

The elder replied irritatedly, “Starting from the fourth floor, at least a Heavenly Origin realm is required. Otherwise, one is unqualified to enter.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Lin felt somewhat helpless. It seemed he could only make it to the third floor. However, he felt contented. At least he had gained immensely from this trip; it wasn’t in vain.

Suddenly, the elder waved his hand, and the surroundings vanished. Fang Lin found himself amidst a sea of flowers.

Fang Lin was dumbstruck, the scene before him differed from his expectations.

“Kid, don’t get any ideas about the flowers and grasses here. They are ordinary. Deep in the vegetation, there’s a Hundred Flowers Spring. The spring water within is a sacred object.” The elder reluctantly informed Fang Lin.
