The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron Chapter 56 – 56 Chapter 56: Got Played!

Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Got Played!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell began to operate and Fang Lin's body was like a bottomless abyss. A thread of ash-grey aura started to emanate from all over Fang Lin.

Visible to the naked eye, everything around Fang Lin seemed distorted, yet upon closer inspection, there was nothing unusual.

Fang Lin's eyes were as sharp as lightning, firmly fixed on the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron in front of him. As the grey glow on his body reached a certain intensity, Fang Lin dramatically sucked in the direction of the Black Cauldron.

Whoosh!!!

Immediately, a black beam of light shot out from the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron and rushed directly into Fang Lin's mouth.

The moment it entered his mouth, the black light disappeared as if it had fallen into a bottomless abyss, entirely invisible.

As the black light entered his body, a trace of elusive black color, barely discernible, emerged in Fang Lin's clear eyes.

Swallowing a cauldron, to most people, was unimaginable because a cauldron was an inanimate object, how could one swallow it?

But the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell was such a wonderful secret skill, turning a cultivator into a large furnace, capable of swallowing cauldrons to further strengthen the furnace.

In his past life, Fang Lin had practiced the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell to the eighth level, making him one of the top masters in the Pill Saint Palace, able to go anywhere in the world.

As for the ninth level, Fang Lin had not been able to reach it.

It wasn't because Fang Lin lacked talent, but because the conditions for advancing to the ninth level were too demanding, requiring the swallowing of a unique and unparalleled cauldron in the world.

Such a cauldron, Fang Lin had only one at the time, which was his pill refining tool, so naturally he wasn't willing to consume it.

Fang Lin had thought that if he had practiced the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell to the ninth level at the time, even if he failed when refining the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill, he would not have perished.

Regrettably, he couldn't turn back time and could only sigh at this thought.

Now, Fang Lin had to start all over again. This Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron was the first step to his rapid leap in strength.

Black vapors steadily flowed into Fang Lin's mouth like a thin stream. The grey aura on Fang Lin's body gradually faded, replaced by an obscure aura that was sometimes pitch black and sometimes snow white.

Meanwhile, the black color in Fang Lin's eyes became more pronounced. At a glance, Fang Lin's eyes looked like two black holes, incredibly terrifying.

At this moment, a faint agitation came from within Fang Lin's body. A surge of overflowing inner strength gushed from his thirty-six channels, flowing throughout his entire body.

Human Origin Seventh Layer!

After absorbing a part of the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron, Fang Lin's boundary finally broke through, reaching the seventh layer of the Human Origin.

The seventh layer of Human Origin was considered above-average in the Pill Sect, and it was also a crucial requirement to become an elite disciple.

Without reaching the seventh layer of Human Origin, you cannot become an elite disciple.

At Fang Lin's current level, even ten Kang Lu's standing in front of him wouldn't be a match.

Even Yuan Bo that day could be badly beaten by Fang Lin with several punches and kicks, without any effort.

It could be said that at this moment, Fang Lin had some protective strength among the disciples of the Pill Sect.

Fang Lin had a faint smile on his face, naturally glad for the improvement in his realm.

After absorbing for several hours, more than half of the Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron in front of him was gone, leaving only a small portion still continuously transforming into black vapor and being swallowed by Fang Lin.

There was another soft sound, and an even more massive surge of inner strength erupted from within Fang Lin.

Fang Lin's body crackled all over, the sound made by the inner strength sorting out his bones.

At this moment, Fang Lin quickly swallowed a Pill.

The moment the Pill entered his mouth, it instantly turned into a clear stream, which Fang Lin quickly refined and absorbed.

Crackle!!!

A crisp sound continuously echoed around Fang Lin, sounding like firecrackers being set off.

What he had just swallowed was a Bone Tempering Pill that Fang Lin had prepared in advance, capable of greatly enhancing his bones.

Fang Lin took this rare opportunity of sorting his bones with Inner Strength to take the Bone Tempering Pill, allowing further strengthening of his bones.

A Martial Artist has two layers: one for Qi and blood, another for Meridians and bones.

Qi and blood are self-explanatory; strong Qi and blood bring about a vigorous vitality.

Meridians, naturally, refer to the meridians and bones.

The importance of meridians relates to inner strength, while bones pertain to the physical strength of a martial artist.

If two Martial Artists of the same realm were to fight, the one who often tempered his bones could easily shatter the other's limbs with a single punch if his opponent had fragile bones.

In his past life, Fang Lin was a Pill Sovereign and a martial artist with extraordinary strength. He naturally paid great attention to his bones. He had prepared many Bone Tempering Pills well beforehand, keeping them precisely for this day.

The Bone Tempering Pill was among the top in first-grade pills, with a high difficulty in refining, even for a seasoned One Cauldron Pill Refiner, the success rate was only about 30 percent.

If it was simply based on difficulty in refining, the Bone Tempering Pill could be classified as a second-grade pill.

But because the required ingredients were relatively easy to obtain, coupled with its single effectiveness, it is categorized as a first-grade pill.

Fang Lin refined more than fifty of them, aside from those he prepared for his breakthrough, he intended to secretly sell the rest to the members of the Martial Sect.

Considering the temperament of the Martial Sect members, who highly value bone refinement, the appearance of the Bone Tempering Pill will certainly attract lots of interest and pursuit.

Fang Lin seemed to have foreseen that once he started selling a small number of his Bone Tempering Pills, numerous Martial Sect disciples would come to buy them continually. By then, he could take advantage of this opportunity to network, alleviating his weak position in the Purple Mist Sect.

Just as Fang Lin was daydreaming, the black mist in his mouth suddenly disappeared.

Once the black mist was gone, the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell could no longer operate, the faint light on his body instantly receded, and his jet-black eyes suddenly returned to normal.

Fang Lin was stunned, looking at the empty space in front of him, the Mysterious Heaven Black Cauldron was nowhere to be seen.

After a while, Fang Lin's face showed a look of fury.

“Damn it!” Fang Lin suddenly jumped up, almost flipping the roof.

Fang Lin stood there, his eyes seemingly spouting flames, a manifestation of gritted teeth. If there was someone here, Fang Lin might have eaten him alive.

“Damn Pill Pavilion! damn Gu Daofeng! They actually filled the numbers with second-rate goods! Absolutely disgraceful! Absolutely inhumane!” Fang Lin cursed angrily, seemingly on the verge of exploding in rage.

Fang Lin's current level was stuck at the Eighth Layer of Human Origin, not as he expected to break through to the Ninth Layer or even Tenth layer.

The reason was that the Mysterious Heaven Black Cauldron was not a genuine

one, only a part of it was cast with Mysterious Heavenly Stone, the rest being mixed with other materials.

With such an inferior product, even if he swallowed it, its effect wouldn't be as good as swallowing a real Mysterious Heavenly Stone Cauldron.

“It's really strange, since when was Gu Daofeng so generous? Since when was the Pill Pavilion so generous? When that old guy gave me the Pill Furnace, he even made a painful expression on his face, huh! This old thing!” Fang Lin couldn't help but curse loudly..
