The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 448: Chapter 448: Battle with Li Guanxin

Fang Lin gestured impatiently, “Come on, hurry up. I have to leave soon.”

Li Guanxin was furious. How dare Fang Lin dismiss him so casually? It was supposed to be him, Li Guanxin, looking down on Fang Lin, not the other way around.

Right then and there, Li Guanxin took action without any more words.

Boom!

Li Guanxin, despite his appearance of a clean and sleek scholar, filled the air with immense power as soon as he made a move.

His palm strike came with an obscure ancient symbol faintly visible in the midst of the white radiance engulfing his palm.

“Is this not the Li Family’s secret technique, the True Sun Energy?”

“This is another of the Li Family’s secret techniques, the Heart Destroying Palm.”

“Apparently, very few from the Li Family have mastered this technique, and Li Guanxin is one of them.”

···

A lot of people exclaimed in awe. There were members of the royal family, members of the Purple Mist Sect, and as for those from the Li Family, they couldn’t resist wearing a triumphant smile. After all, seeing their unique skill displayed by Li Guanxin, they naturally felt proud.

The Heart Destroying Palm, a martial technique passed down by the ancestors of the Li Family derived from ancient texts, was extremely difficult to master, but its power surpassed the True Sun Energy.

Li Guanxin, as the top young genius of the Li Family, had naturally mastered this technique long ago and seldom showed it publicly.

This time, facing Fang Lin, Li Guanxin intended to spare no effort. He wanted to overpower Fang Lin, reverse the Li Family’s current decline, and make a strong impression on the Purple Mist Sect.

Fang Lin’s eyes narrowed slightly. Though his words downplayed Li Guanxin, he never underestimated him.

The Heart Destroying Palm arrived with a violent gust of palm wind, as if it was determined to shatter Fang Lin entirely.

“Bring it on!” Fang Lin roared, throwing out an equally formidable punch as his inner strength surged and clashed with the incoming attack.

It was a simple, straightforward punch, but it bore an impact as mighty as a thunderbolt, severely diminishing Li Guanxin’s momentum.

The very next moment, the fists of Fang Lin and Li Guanxin clashed.

“Fang Lin is courting death!” A cold smirk was seen on the faces of many of Li’s family disciples. The Heart Destroying Palm was known for its sheer ferocity, and for Fang Lin to block it with his fist was simply an act of utmost foolishness.

The members of the Purple Mist Sect and the royal family frowned as they watched. Fang Lin collision with the Heart Destroying Palm hardly seemed like a wise move.

“Humph!” Li Guanxin let out a grunt, as a look of surprise flashed across his face. He staggered back a step.

“What? Fang Lin actually repelled Li Guanxin with a single punch?” The spectators were shocked. Even the members of the Li family found it unbelievable: how could Fang Lin handle the Heart Destroying Palm head-on?

Fang Lin wavered slightly, his eyes reflecting a hint of surprise, but it quickly vanished.

“Such a powerful Heart Destroying Palm!” Fang Lin clenched his fist, feeling a certain pain, almost as if his bones had been fractured.

Considering Fang Lin’s current condition, it would take a Heavenly Origin expert to fracture his hand bones.

Given that Li Guanxin, was able to achieve this is a testament to the remarkable power of the Heart Destroying Palm.

Fang Lin was taken aback, but Li Guanxin seemed far more startled. In his estimation, the Heart Destroying Palm should have shattered Fang Lin’s entire arm.

But Fang Lin stood there as if entirely uninjured, which Li Guanxin found unacceptable. He hadn’t anticipated Fang Lin’s body to be so robust.

“How many palm strikes can you take?” Li Guanxin muttered to himself, readying his Heart Destroying Palm once again.

Fang Lin felt a bit troubled. This Heart Destroying Palm was indeed problematic; a direct conflict would put him, despite his robust physical state, at a disadvantage.

Just then, he unleashed the Power of Breaking Peak and charged like an anthropomorphic Demon Beast towards Li Guanxin.

With the aid of the Power of Breaking Peak, Fang Lin’s physique took on a more formidable force, allowing him to endure even the powerful Heart Destroying Palm.

Li Guanxin was alarmed. Fang Lin’s challenging degree far surpassed his expectations, and his Heart Destroying Palm seemed useless against him.

“Strong physique doesn’t matter when there’s a gap in power,” Li Guanxin shouted. Dodging Fang Lin’s fierce offensive with swift movements, he easily neutralized it.

Beyond that, Li Guanxin’s eyes lit up with a faint milky white light.

What followed was Fang Lin’s growing realization that each of his movements seemed to be anticipated by Li Guanxin, who always responded accordingly, putting Fang Lin at a disadvantage.

In front of these eyes, you’re like an insignificant ant, entirely at my mercy,” Li Guanxin teased.

Fang Lin felt a chill creeping up his spine. This guy was indeed formidable, even having such a remarkable Pupil Skill.

“Predict all you want, but can you predict this?” Fang Lin’s figure blurred as he performed the Nine Heavens Step Skill.

At this moment, within the combat arena, Li Guanxin’s figure swayed uncertainly, while Fang Lin moved like a ghost. Both demonstrated their movement techniques to the fullest.

Fang Lin was astonished; Li Guanxin’s movement technique was no joke either. This was the first time he’d encountered such skill among his peers.

However, it still fell short in comparison to the Nine Heavens Step Skill.

The Nine Heavens Step Skill, bestowed upon him by his father Fang Qingye, was profoundly mysterious and embodied the unpredictability of heaven and earth.

Though Li Guanxin’s movement technique was decent, it still lacked the qualifications to compete with the Nine Heavens Step Skill.

If Fang Lin were a level higher, his use of the Nine Heavens Step Skill would be a different sight altogether. It could be described as unpredictable, transforming thousands of changes.

Not only could Li Guanxin not keep pace with Fang Lin’s movement technique, even his Pupil Skill proved incapable of seeing through Fang Lin’s Nine Heaven’s Step Skill.

“How is that possible?” Li Guanxin found it hard to believe. His Pupil Skill was capable of deciphering an opponent’s every move, yet it was completely blinded by Fang Lin’s technique. Even if a hint of the technique was deciphered, it led to entirely wrong predictions. No patterns or traces could be discerned.

Bang!

Out of nowhere, a fist from Fang Lin came at Li Guanxin, who barely managed to fend off the blow despite anticipating it. Li Guanxin’s left rib got a direct hit.

The punch was solid. Li Guanxin involuntarily gasped, feeling his ribs snap from the pain, causing him to furrow his brow.

“You’re asking for it!” In a flash, Li Guanxin grabbed Fang Lin by the shoulders and kicked him in the stomach.

Li Guanxin’s counterattack was swift and ferocious. Fang Lin, his shoulders restrained, was unable to dodge and had to bear the brunt of the kick.

The kick left him with an intense pain in his abdomen, but he used the force of it to free himself from Li Guanxin’s grip.

The crowd outside the arena gasped in shock. No one could maintain their composure at this sight, not even Han Luoyun, Yang Jianye, or Li Zhendong. They all watched the two combatants with intense focus.

This showdown could indeed be equated to a fierce fight between a dragon and a tiger. Neither of them had the upper hand yet.

“I admit, you are stronger than I expected. However, from now on, you won’t stand a chance.” Li Guanxin rubbed his aching left rib and scoffed.
