The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron-Chapter 699 - : The Strange Ancient Battlefield
Chapter 699: Chapter 699: The Strange Ancient Battlefield
“Is this turtle demon also going to join in the attack on the city?” Fang Lin’s eyelids twitched, hurriedly asking the Old Dried Corpse in his heart.
The Old Dried Corpse responded casually: “If it wants to join, let it. After all, Demon Suppressing City is basically unable to hold out anymore.”

At those words, Fang Lin’s expression became somewhat grave. Looking at the Turtle Demon again, he saw that it was indeed making some moves.
However, it wasn’t that the Turtle Demon itself was doing anything, but that it had conjured an illusion.
The phantom of the giant turtle appeared, heading directly toward the direction of Demon Suppressing City. Although the power of an illusion was certainly not as good as the body itself, this Turtle Demon was a Giant Demon King after all. Even just an illusion was much stronger than a regular Demon King.
The Turtle Demon was unwilling to take action personally, so it sent an illusion to join the battle. Although it seemed somewhat perfunctory, at least it had made a contribution.
“Can we only stand by and watch?” Fang Lin asked.
The Old Dried Corpse was silent for a moment, then said: “You’d better not meddle in the affairs of Demon Suppressing City. With your strength, if you go there, you’ll just be cannon fodder.”
After a pause, the Old Dried Corpse continued: “Not far from here, in the deepest part of Ferocious Mountain, there’s an ancient battlefield. It’s the most peculiar place in the whole Hundred Beast Ferocious Mountain. You can take a look there, you may find something.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Lin frowned, took another look at Demon Suppressing City that was ablaze with war flames, and sighed in his heart.
“Where is it?” Fang Lin asked, naturally referring to the peculiar ancient battlefield mentioned by the Old Dried Corpse.
“Head north and you will see it. That ancient battlefield is quite peculiar, even I can’t see what’s inside. I suspect it hides a big secret.” The Old Dried Corpse spoke, his tone filled with gravity.
Fang Lin nodded and then turned to Wang Erdan and Mei Yingxue: “Let’s head north.”
Everyone did not say much. At this moment, the Hundred Beast Ferocious Mountain was relatively safe. Most of the demon beasts had gone to join the siege of the city. Even if they did not stay near the Giant Turtle Demon King, they wouldn’t encounter any danger.
At the moment, they promptly headed north. The Giant Turtle Demon King poked out its smooth head, glanced at the group, and didn’t bother with them.
Continuing north, passing through a dense forest and then through a deep canyon, everything before them became clear.
“This is…” Everyone was shocked by what they saw.
Undoubtedly, this was an ancient battlefield. Since their entry into Hundred Beast Ferocious Mountain, they had seen many such battlefields, but this one appeared to be very special.
Because, standing in this battlefield were countless figures of martial artists and demon beasts, all frozen in various poses, as if everything in the ancient battlefield was still alive.
However, whether they were demon beasts or martial artists within the ancient battlefield, all were static, with no signs of life, like statues.
These demon beasts and martial artists were obviously dead, and had been for a very long time. This was evident from the attire of the warriors.
But the bodies of these demon beasts and martial artists showed no signs of decay, remaining as vibrant and full as when they were alive, apart from their lack of vitality, they resembled living beings.
Especially as these bodies, all maintained the posture before death, as if the time in this ancient battlefield had completely stopped at that moment.
“Why is it like this?” Mei Yingxue uttered in shock, the feel of this ancient battlefield was extremely eerie.
Not only Mei Yingxue, but also the others, some even felt fearful, secretly guessing if they would end up in the same state if they stepped into this ancient battlefield.
“Senior, what happened here? Why is it like this?” Fang Lin asked in his heart.
The Old Dried Corpse said solemnly: “I am not sure. There is some kind of power covering this place, it’s very powerful. Unless I explore it in person, I can’t tell.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Lin opened his spirit eyes, intending to rely on the power of the spirit eyes to see what was inside the ancient battlefield.
However, as soon as the Spirit Eye opened, Fang Lin cried out in pain, spitting out blood from his mouth, and the Spirit eye on his forehead throbbed painfully.
“Are you okay?” Steward Shen reacted quickly, catching Fang Lin in his arms, while Dugu Nian looked at him worryingly.
Fang Lin wiped the blood from his mouth. His face was a little pale, but he seemed fine.
“It’s alright, this ancient battlefield cannot be prying into with the Spirit Eye, a force emerges to repel my prying.” Fang Lin shook his head and said.
Hearing this, Wang Erdan instantly shrunk his neck. He had also wanted to use his Spirit Eye to see what was happening in the ancient battlefield. Seeing Fang Lin vomiting blood, he immediately did not dare to look.
“With this place being so eerie, do we still want to go in?” Mei Yingxue asked, frowning slightly.
Fang Lin revealed a strange look on his face: “We can let one person go in and scout the way in advance.”
As he spoke, Fang Lin’s gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on Wang Erdan.
Wang Erdan immediately widened his eyes: “What? You want me to go scout? Why don’t you go?”
Fang Lin rolled his eyes: “Why are you such a coward? I haven’t even said anything yet, look at you. After all, you are the first prodigy of the Five Elements Sect. You should set an example for your fellow disciples, how can you be so spineless?”
Wang Erdan was infuriated: “What about Mei Yingxue? She’s the first prodigy of Heavenly Fragrance Valley. Why don’t you let her scout the way?”
Mei Yingxue gave Wang Erdan a glance, but didn’t say anything. In her eyes, Wang Erdan was just a child who hadn’t grown up yet.
Fang Lin looked at Wang Erdan with even more disdain: “Er Dan, Er Dan, she’s a lady, you’re a grown man. Do you really think it’s appropriate to have Miss Mei scout the way for us?”
Wang Erdan scratched his head, it seemed to be the case, to let a girl scout the way for him and others, did not seem quite right.
“Dugu Ruoxu, why don’t you go?” Wang Erdan looked at Dugu Ruoxu and said.
Dugu Ruoxu was about to speak when Fang Lin interjected, laughing: “He’s not as strong as you, so it has to be you who goes.”
Wang Erdan was speechless, but it seemed he was a little stronger than Dugu Ruoxu.
Dugu Ruoxu gave Fang Lin a look. It seemed he was a bit upset about Fang Lin saying he was not as good as Wang Erdan.
At this time, Wang Erdan again looked at Fang Lin, and said with a cheeky grin: “Why don’t you go scout then?”
Fang Lin immediately pretended to be extremely weak, coughing continuously: “Didn’t you see that I’m injured? I need to heal now, so Er Dan, you are the most suitable person to go scout the way.”
Wang Erdan was at a loss for words, this guy was too good at pretending, just now he was fine, immediately pretending to be an individual on the verge of dying.
“I’ll go! I’m fed up with all of you, a bunch of cowards! I can’t stand you!” Wang Erdan gritted his teeth and said. He then turned to step into the ancient battlefield, looking like he was ready to make a noble sacrifice.
Fang Lin stopped him, chuckling: “Just kidding, of course, you don’t need to scout the way.”
As he spoke, Fang Lin patted his Nine Palace Bag.
“Kid, what dirty chores do you have for me this time?” The Millennial Corpse Ginseng appeared, immediately spouting these words.
