THE EXTREME ALCHEMIST OF THE MIGHTY CAULDRON
Chapter 825: The Truth About FailureChapter 825: Chapter 825: The Truth About Failure
Only Fang Lin of this lifetime knew that the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill was ultimately impossible to refine, and from the moment he started to refine it, everything was doomed to tragedy.
As time passed, Fang Lin, still like a passerby of the years, watched his past self continuously perfect the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill, causing the pills inside the treasure cauldron to gradually take shape.
More and more anomalies appeared between the heavens and the earth, and outside the Pill Saint Palace, there would often be terrifying scenes as if the sky and earth were turning upside down.
Whenever there was an unparalleled pill coming out of the furnace, phenomena would occur between heaven and earth.
The sheer number and the shocking nature of these phenomena indicated how terrifying the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill that Fang Lin was trying to refine must be.
Everything seemed to be unfolding as the past life’s Fang Lin had predicted.
And Fang Lin of this lifetime could only silently watch it all, unable to stop it, and simply waiting for what was to come.
That day, finally arrived.
Fang Lin remembered clearly that three days before the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill was due to be completed, he had once gone out to see his parents.
And sure enough, the Fang Lin of the previous life left the pill refining hall and did not return until three days later.
Looking at the treasure cauldron, now full of cracks, both the Fang Lin of this lifetime and the one from the previous life knew that the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill was about to be finished.
But the difference was, the eyes of the past life’s Fang Lin were filled with joy and anticipation.
Whereas the Fang Lin of this lifetime did not wish to see the sorrowful scene brought about by the failure.
Even though it was all something he had once experienced, Fang Lin at this moment did not wish to see it, nor did he want to suffer through such agony again.
But no matter how much Fang Lin found it hard to accept, everything had already arrived.
The entire great hall was rumbling, and the same was true for the entire Pill Saint Palace.
The unfathomable pill was about to take form and come out of the furnace. At this moment, the sky lost its color, even the stars were falling, and the sun and moon were in fear.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this was the true apocalypse, but to the many mighty beings, it was a sign that an extraordinary, divine pill was about to emerge.
Countless gazes were fixed on the Pill Saint Palace, and numerous people were excited for the Pill Sovereign, whose talent was unmatched throughout the ages.
Inside the great hall, the past life’s Fang Lin was bursting with excitement, watching the Pill Furnace, he could almost see the mysterious and round pills, slowly emerging amidst a surging aura.
And at this moment, the anomaly occurred.
An eerie figure suddenly appeared inside the great hall, with an indistinguishable face shrouded by an invisible force.
This figure appeared too suddenly, and the past life’s Fang Lin had no time to guard against it, before it struck the treasure cauldron with a palm.
“No!!!” the past life’s Fang Lin roared furiously, his eyes almost splitting with rage, wanting to strike down the figure and to salvage everything.
Regrettably, nothing could be salvaged, and the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill was ultimately not truly refined. At the most crucial moment, the treasure cauldron was destroyed by the mysterious figure.
With the cauldron destroyed, the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill inside was also impacted, and what was about to be a successful pill fell into failure at that moment.
After the mysterious figure made their move, they immediately vanished as if they had never been there, leaving not a trace of their presence.
But Fang Lin of this lifetime noticed that before the figure disappeared, it seemed to glance in his direction, sending a chill through Fang Lin’s entire body.
“He could see me?” Fang Lin’s heart was shocked, but the figure seemed to have merely glanced hurriedly before vanishing without a trace.
Hurriedly he came, hurriedly he left, but the action he took was earth-shattering.
It was at this moment that Fang Lin truly understood that he had not failed in his previous life; it was the appearance of this mysterious figure that had caused his ultimate downfall.
Boom!!!
The precious cauldron shattered, and a boundless, terrifying force swept out. This was a destructive force capable of annihilating all things, an eruption of the power of life and death reincarnation.
In his past life, even though Fang Lin possessed the abilities of the Pill Sovereign and held formidable cultivation and strength, he still perished in the face of such power.
In this life, Fang Lin’s vision also darkened, and when he regained consciousness, he found himself adrift in the darkness, his body floating like a rootless leaf, wandering without consciousness, with nowhere to land and no place to call home.
“Who is he? Why does he want to harm me so!!!” Fang Lin roared in his heart, furious after seeing clearly what had happened in the past. If that mysterious figure stood before him now, Fang Lin would definitely fight him to the death.
It was because of the mysterious figure’s intervention that all his hard work came to nothing, leading him to fall into this strange era.
All of this was due to the mysterious figure, the chief culprit.
After a while, Fang Lin barely managed to calm down, looking around at everything with a desolate heart.
“Am I going to become another vanished criminal beneath the Abyss Pill Well, just like the previous three?” Fang Lin’s heart was bitter, and his face bore a sorrowful smile.
This darkness was too silent, void of any sound, with only his own breathing and heartbeat audible.
Fang Lin closed his eyes, feeling extremely tired. He wanted to just fall asleep, paying attention to nothing, thinking about nothing.
Unconsciously, Fang Lin’s consciousness blurred, and he was about to fall asleep entirely, with a peaceful expression on his face as if he had returned to the embrace of his mother.
Fang Lin didn’t know that in this place, once he truly fell asleep, he would never wake up again, but would keep drifting here until his death.
…
Time passed indistinguishably, and Fang Lin was nearly fully asleep, feeling neither the passage of time nor any troubles or sorrows.
Suddenly, a hand appeared, as if it were the dawn cutting through the night, or a stone breaking the calm surface of water.
“You have come to this place too early.” Amid the haziness, Fang Lin seemed to hear a voice, illusory and indistinct, sounding both far away and near, not quite clear.
The hand reached toward Fang Lin, growing huge and scooping him up entirely.
…
Outside the Abyss Pill Well, two middle-aged men hesitated whether they should report to their superiors when they suddenly sensed the aura of a sin imprint emanating from beneath the Abyss Pill Well.
“What?” Both men were greatly startled and immediately entered the Abyss Pill Well to check.
They saw Fang Lin sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the Abyss Pill Well, showing no signs of abnormality.
But both wore expressions as if they had seen a ghost, for they had been outside the Abyss Pill Well the whole time. There had not been a ghostly shadow before, and Fang Lin had suddenly disappeared and then just as suddenly appeared, which was exceedingly eerie.
“Do you two gentlemen need something?” Fang Lin opened his eyes, glanced at the two middle-aged men, and asked.
