The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1698: 1795: Defeat Immortal StrongmenChapter 1698: Chapter 1795: Defeat Immortal Strongmen
The young Taoist and Elder Situ both had extremely unsightly expressions on their faces. Especially the young Taoist—he had unleashed the full power of the Thunder Control Skill, which should have been enough to kill Fang Lin. Yet now, Fang Lin was not only perfectly fine but had also mockingly stepped into the Great Longevity Realm.
Fang Lin’s “Thanks for the gift” only made the young Taoist so angry that his organs felt like they were twisting in pain. As an Immortal expert, he quickly realized the cause and effect of the situation. The thought filled him with regret. If he had known things would turn out this way, he wouldn’t have used the Thunder Control Skill from the start.
“You actually used the Power of thunder and lightning to temper your body and step into the Great Longevity Realm!” Elder Situ said through gritted teeth, having seen the underlying principle behind the situation.
Fang Lin nodded with a smile. “As expected of the Taoist Sect’s lightning techniques. Only such power could let me step into the Great Longevity Realm so quickly. Truly, I must thank you.”
Elder Situ glanced at the young Taoist, whose face was now ashen, and his expression as dark as a storm, nearly dripping water.
Even someone with the young Taoist’s usually indifferent temperament felt an overwhelming urge to rush up and beat Fang Lin into the ground right then and there.
But anger was one thing—there was no changing what had already happened. Regardless of their fury, neither the young Taoist nor Elder Situ could undo the current situation.
Fang Lin looked at his hands and spoke to himself, “With my current realm, are the two of you still capable of stopping me?”
Elder Situ coldly snorted and pointed towards the scroll floating above the heavens. Instantly, brilliance flowed from the scroll, and countless rays of dazzling light descended towards Fang Lin.
“A mere ink treasure, and you think it can subdue me?” Fang Lin sneered disdainfully. He unleashed a surging punch, scattering the countless rays of light. The scroll quivered violently before its aura drastically diminished, retreating back to Elder Situ’s hand.
With a single step forward, Fang Lin fully unleashed his Nine Heavens Step Skill. To the world around him, it was as if the entire Nine Heavens lay beneath his feet. His movements were nearly untraceable, so elusive that even the vision of Immortal experts struggled to follow his trajectory.
“Too slow!” Fang Lin moved behind the young Taoist and Elder Situ, raining down punches like a tempest of fists, each strike as fierce as a storm.
The two immediately retaliated, and the three were once again locked in an intense battle—a two-against-one battle just like before. Yet now, the situation was nothing like it had been.
Before Fang Lin reached the Great Longevity Realm, Elder Situ and the young Taoist working together couldn’t dominate Fang Lin but were neither at a disadvantage, locked in a delicate stalemate.
But now, Fang Lin was entirely overwhelming the two of them, taking the upper hand. Elder Situ and the young Taoist were struggling to handle him.
Fang Lin’s physical body, in particular, seemed to have grown even more formidable than before. Despite the unique body-strengthening secret skills Elder Situ and the young Taoist employed, they could hardly withstand Fang Lin’s physique, which could only be described as monstrous.
After all, advancing in realm was the most direct way to gain power. At the peak of the Minor Longevity Realm, Fang Lin could face off against two early-stage Immortal experts without falling behind.
Now that he had stepped into the Great Longevity Realm—with the augmentation of the eight Ancient Lamps of the Flame God, the Power of the Sacred Tree, the True Dragon Physique, and the power of the Kylin Demon Bone suppressing two early-stage Immortals was almost effortless.
The young Taoist and Elder Situ grew more alarmed the longer they fought. The two of them were top-tier figures of their era, yet at this moment, they were being suppressed by a single person. Forget turning the tables—it was uncertain how much longer they could even hold out under Fang Lin’s attacks.
This turn of events was hard for the two to digest. As powerful Immortals, they used to sweep through any opponent with unrivaled confidence.
But Fang Lin was simply beyond comprehension—a complete anomaly who had almost entirely shattered their past sense of invincibility.
Though they exhausted all their methods, the young Taoist and Elder Situ could hardly contend with Fang Lin’s sheer overwhelming might; his “One Force Subdues Ten Groups” approach left them helpless. They could only give everything they had just to keep up with him.
Despite their shock at Fang Lin’s strength, they were both inwardly calculating how to defeat him.
Using the Taoist Sect’s lightning techniques again was clearly out of the question. Even the Nine Petals Purple Thunder Lotus failed to kill Fang Lin and instead helped him break through to the Great Longevity Realm.
If they tried lightning techniques again, who knew if they’d unintentionally make him even more powerful?
In their minds, they reasoned that since Fang Lin had recently entered the Great Longevity Realm, his cultivation must be somewhat unstable. Moreover, Fang Lin’s strength wasn’t entirely his own; he’d relied greatly on external forces.
And as with anything reliant on external aid, it was bound to come with limitations and side effects. After all, nothing in the world was perfect—the more powerful the martial arts or secret skills, the greater the drawbacks.
Thus, the young Taoist and Elder Situ made up their minds—not to defeat Fang Lin, but to endure and drain his power until he was exhausted. At that point, victory would be inevitable.
Although this method lacked dignity, neither Elder Situ nor the young Taoist had any alternative. Fang Lin’s current strength was simply overwhelming; in a one-on-one battle, either of them would already have fallen.
Their combined efforts only barely allowed them to hold their ground. Their only hope was to wear Fang Lin out.
Fang Lin, however, was no simple figure. He quickly discerned their plan and coldly sneered to himself.
“I’ve just stepped into the Great Longevity Realm. Admittedly, my realm is unstable, and the Ancient Lamps of the Flame God will eventually weaken my body. If this truly drags on for ten days or half a month, I wouldn’t hold out. But before that happens, I’m afraid the two of you will already have been defeated.”
With this in mind, Fang Lin’s attacks grew even more aggressive. He even unleashed the Supreme Saint Hall’s martial arts, techniques he hadn’t used in many years.
After uncovering Mo Shouhe’s ulterior motives for creating the Supreme Saint Hall, Fang Lin had stopped using its martial arts. However, the martial arts themselves remained extraordinarily powerful. After all, they were the masterpieces of Martial Lord Mo Shouhe, and learning even one or two was enough to benefit an individual for a lifetime.
Fang Lin mobilized the power of the heavens. A resplendent and enormous seal suddenly formed, slamming directly toward the young Taoist.
Supreme Seal!
At the same time, Fang Lin flicked his fingers, unleashing a sharp streak of light imbued with the power of the Supreme Saint Hall that shot toward Elder Situ.
Two Supreme martial arts techniques targeted the duo.
“He was holding back all this time?” Both were startled. They hadn’t expected Fang Lin still had such terrifying techniques hidden up his sleeve, only bringing them out now.
As the Inheritor of the Supreme Saint Hall, the power of its martial arts naturally grew with Fang Lin’s cultivation. The level of might he unleashed now with these techniques was worlds apart from what he had been capable of in the past.
Boom! Boom!
First, the young Taoist, then Elder Situ were struck, both suffering heavy injuries.
