The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 402: 402

The Wordless Ancient Stele, previously a blank slate, was starting to show a vague character on its surface.

Others may not understand its significance, but the old man in white knew.

In the past, the talented who entered the Pill Pole Tower have all practiced in front of the Wordless Ancient Stele. However, only a few could make the stele display a character. In fact, almost none.

Yet, Fang Lin managed to do so.

The appearance of the character on the Wordless Ancient Stele brightened its light, as soft as a waxing moon, continuously pouring into Fang Lin’s body.

Fang Lin’s body was enveloped in a thick green light, with the sound of his beating heart subtly audible.

Thump! Thump! Thump!!!

The sound was so powerful it resembled a drumbeat, causing an involuntary tremble in those who heard it.

Fang Lin could strongly sense the fresh blood flowing from his heart to every part of his body.

This development thrilled him.

A person’s lifespan greatly depended on the heart and the blood.

A decayed heart and dried-up blood signified old age and a shortened lifespan.

A thriving heart and fresh blood meant a surge of vitality within a body.

At the moment, Fang Lin underwent a complete blood renewal, removing the old blood and replacing it with fresh blood.

Afterwards, Fang Lin seemed rejuvenated, appearing to be just fifteen or sixteen years old.

Of course, hiding beneath the youthful exterior was a formidable force. His aura was constantly growing stronger.

Without realizing it, he had reached the peak of the Earth Element eighth layer. He was only a step away from the breakthrough to the ninth layer.

This last step, however, was like a mountain range standing in his way, preventing his breakthrough.

Fang Lin was not in a rush. He believed that with everything going smoothly, there is no reason not to break into the Ninth Layer of the Earth Element.

There was still some Heavenly Blue Liquid left. Though not much, it was enough to assist Fang Lin in breaking through to the ninth layer.

In addition to that, he had many Auxiliary Pills prepared that could help with the breakthrough. He had no need to worry about anything.

Zhao Shenkong was growing pale at the sight of Fang Lin’s growing aura. He realized that Fang Lin was preparing to break into the Ninth Layer of the Earth Element.

With this thought, Zhao Shenkong felt a chill running down his spine. Not only was Fang Lin a prodigy in Alchemy Tao, but his martial arts talent was also staggering. How were others supposed to survive?

The stronger Fang Lin appeared, the stronger Zhao Shenkong’s impulse to interfere with his progress. However, the Millennium Corpse Ginseng was watching him closely. If he made the slightest move, it would start nagging him non-stop.

Zhao Shenkong also found that he could no longer concentrate on interpreting the stele.

Zhao Shenkong was getting very antsy. He didn’t want to pay attention to Fang Lin and wanted to focus on interpreting the stele.

In fact, because of Fang Lin’s existence, he could not calm his mind.

The more he tried to ignore Fang Lin, the more the memory of Fang Lin defeating him haunted him. This increased his anxiety.

In this state of mind, Zhao Shenkong found it impossible to interpret the stele.

“Damn it!” Zhao Shenkong cursed, his eyes filled with resentment. It was all Fang Lin’s fault. He couldn’t even interpret the stele properly now.

Fang Lin ignored Zhao Shenkong’s frustration and wholly immersed himself in the pleasure of cultivation, unable to pull himself out.

“It’s about time.” Fang Lin muttered to himself, feeling that it was the right moment for the breakthrough. Without hesitation, he took a few of the Auxiliary Pills that would help him in ascending to the next level.

Boom!!!

It felt like thunder was rolling within Fang Lin’s body, emitting a shocking aura.

At the same time, Fang Lin could feel a force suppressing his aura.

Without admitting defeat, Fang Lin continued to charge forward, attacking the suppressing force again and again.

Simultaneously, the second vague character appeared gradually on the Wordless Ancient Stele behind him. The power of the stele suddenly increased.

The remaining Heavenly Blue Liquid within Fang Lin’s body also exhausted its final effects. With these three factors combined, the barrier blocking his breakthrough shattered.

At this moment, a green light shone brightly, enveloping Fang Lin completely, forming a large, green cocoon.

Like the previous golden cocoon, this was an indication of his breakthrough.

Seeing this, Zhao Shenkong was shocked, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Fang Lin had broken through again, ascending to the Ninth Layer of the Earth Element. This made Zhao Shenkong seem even weaker in comparison.

Moreover, achieving two successive breakthroughs and becoming the peak among the younger generation in the Lower Three Kingdoms was a truly staggering feat.

Even Zhao Shenkong’s most respected Eldest Imperial Son, Zhao Shenji, was just at the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Earth Element.

The old man in white nodded approvingly. Fang Lin’s two continuous breakthroughs were within his expectations. Yet, the appearance of two unclear characters on the Wordless Ancient Stele was a surprise.

Because the Wordless Ancient Stele had an extraordinary origin and was regarded as a holy object. It wasn’t supposed to be here.

Only a few individuals were capable of activating a single character on the stele. As for activating two characters, throughout history, only Fang Lin had accomplished it.

Yes, just Fang Lin.

This proved that Fang Lin possessed a terrifying talent in martial arts, a once-in-a-millennium level of talent.

The Millennium Corpse Ginseng turned back to look at the green cocoon, its face full of admiration.

“Sigh, thanks to my protection, otherwise, who knows if this kid would’ve been able to break through. I need to add one more ancient medicinal herb. Otherwise, it’s a huge loss for me.” the Millennium Corpse Ginseng murmured to itself.

The green cocoon lasted for two hours before it disappeared silently, revealing Fang Lin within.

Fang Lin looked several years younger. He was already youthful, but now he looked like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy with hints of childishness.

Zhao Shenkong was taken aback by this sight. He knew Fang Lin had the potential to keep advancing, but how did he manage to look even younger?

As a matter of fact, this was completely unintended and a direct result of the Heavenly Blue Liquid’s powerful effect.

If it weren’t for the Heavenly Blue Liquid, the difficulty of Fang Lin’s breakthrough would have greatly increased, and he wouldn’t have been able to trigger a complete renewal of his blood.

Despite his childish appearance, a bursting force was hidden within Fang Lin’s youthful body.

One punch was now equivalent to ten before the breakthrough!

“Now that I’m at the Ninth Layer of the Earth Element, I still have a lot of Heavenly Blue Liquid and plenty of pills. Plus, I have the assistance of the Wordless Ancient Stele. Maybe, I can take this opportunity to touch the mysterious Tenth Layer of the Earth Element!” Fang Lin thought to himself, his eyes filled with determination and fight.
