The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1794 - 1891: Great Progress in CultivationChapter 1794: Chapter 1891: Great Progress in Cultivation
Outside the Land of the Divine Cauldrons, there were two guard Stewards in blue robes. Although they were just Stewards, their cultivation reached Great Longevity. Their aura was long-lasting, simply standing there was enough to have considerable deterrence.
Fang Lin couldn’t help but sigh. In later generations, those who were considered top-tier masters with Great Longevity were merely gatekeepers at the Pill Saint Palace. This was the pure difference between two eras.
But it’s no surprise, given the importance of the Land of the Divine Cauldrons, the guards naturally needed to have sufficient cultivation.
"Halt." Seeing Fang Lin approaching, the two blue-robed Stewards simultaneously looked at him, their eyes flashing sharply.
Fang Lin immediately presented a token and a jade slip, handing them to one of the blue-robed Stewards, saying, "Disciple Lin Erdan from White Phoenix Hall, here by the order of Hall Master Ouyang Han to receive a Pill Furnace."
The blue-robed Steward, after inspecting the jade slip and token to ensure there was no mistake, handed a black iron plate to Fang Lin and said, "Upon entering the Land of the Divine Cauldrons, you must not overstep in any way. If any damage happens to the Pill Furnace inside, you will be severely punished. Also, if you attempt to steal a Pill Furnace, we have the authority to execute you on the spot. Do you understand?"
Fang Lin cupped his hands, "Disciple understands."
"Go on in."
The blue-robed Steward waved his hand, opening the stone door to the Land of the Divine Cauldrons, and removed the array at the entrance.
With a calm expression, Fang Lin entered the Land of the Divine Cauldrons, and the stone door closed again, but the array did not rise.
"This kid, it’s his first time in the Land of the Divine Cauldrons, and he’s not excited at all. How strange." After Fang Lin went in, the blue-robed Steward responsible for verifying Fang Lin’s identity smiled and said to the other.
"Perhaps he’s pretending to be calm. For all we know, he might be dancing around in there." The other replied with a faint smile.
"Heh heh, remember how excited we were the first time we came to the Land of the Divine Cauldrons? It’s embarrassing to think about."
····
Inside the Land of the Divine Cauldrons, Fang Lin looked around. Everything here seemed familiar to him. There might be some differences, but it was largely the same as in his past life’s memories.
The internal space of the Land of the Divine Cauldrons was enormous, which wasn’t apparent from the outside, but in fact, the Pill Saint Palace had moved a large mountain here from the mainland, hollowing out the mountain to form the current Land of the Divine Cauldrons.
As far as the eye could see, various Precious Cauldrons of different shapes were neatly arranged. Detailed records were kept on what each cauldron was, its special features, and where it came from.
Each Precious Cauldron here was comparable to the Nine Treasure Luminous Cauldron Fang Lin currently possessed, with more than half of them being of greater value.
Fang Lin glanced around, some Pill Furnaces he had never seen before. He assumed that these were taken away over the following centuries.
"If only all these Pill Furnaces could be taken away, how great it would be. Unfortunately, in later generations, most of these Pill Furnaces have faded with time." Fang Lin looked at these Pill Furnaces with both satisfaction and regret in his eyes.
Although there were many Pill Furnaces in the Alchemy Tao World of later generations, their level was too low. Few ancient Precious Cauldrons had survived intact, either destroyed or missing, which was truly regrettable.
In fact, Fang Lin didn’t have much thought about choosing a Pill Furnace. If it was for refining pills, the Nine Treasure Luminous Cauldron was almost enough.
But to choose a Precious Cauldron truly suitable for himself, those in front of him were slightly lacking.
Only the three Holy Cauldrons stored in the unopened area of the Land of the Divine Cauldrons were truly worthy of Fang Lin.
"Pick one and take it back for cultivation." Fang Lin decided to choose one to take back to practice the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell. Paired with the three pills he obtained, it might significantly enhance his cultivation.
After all, Precious Cauldrons were hard to come by. The reason Fang Lin’s cultivation progress was relatively slow in later generations was due to the lack of high-quality Precious Cauldrons for absorption.
However, in the Pill Saint Palace, there was no shortage of high-quality Precious Cauldrons.
After looking around for a while, Fang Lin suddenly noticed changes in the surrounding Precious Cauldrons, echoing the situation when Fang Lin first came to the Land of the Divine Cauldrons in his past life. Many Precious Cauldrons responded to Fang Lin’s arrival.
"It seems these Precious Cauldrons have always been quite discerning." Fang Lin secretly smiled. He didn’t want these Precious Cauldrons to cause any commotion, so he immediately chose a Pill Furnace and exited the Land of the Divine Cauldrons.
After Fang Lin left, the Precious Cauldrons in the Land of the Divine Cauldrons that had just reacted quieted down, without causing much disturbance.
Fang Lin didn’t want to attract too much attention. If he caused the Precious Cauldrons to resonate and got noticed by the high ranks of the Pill Saint Palace, wouldn’t he become completely famous there?
Fang Lin didn’t recall hearing the name Lin Erdan in his past life, so he couldn’t allow himself to become too famous in the Pill Saint Palace, causing a memory conflict with his future self hundreds of years later.
After obtaining a Precious Cauldron and returning to his residence, Fang Lin directly immersed himself in cultivation, determined to raise his cultivation as close as possible to the Immortal realm.
Fang Lin also realized that traveling back had its advantages. In this era, resources were abundant, and the martial arts environment was far superior to that of future generations. Cultivating here was undoubtedly more efficient than in the future.
Fang Lin believed he was very likely to reach the Immortal realm in this era.
As Fang Lin immersed himself in cultivation, Cheng Qingyu also emerged in the Azure Dragon Hall, continuously participating in promotion assessments like Fang Lin, becoming a Five Cauldron Pill Refiner.
However, the Azure Dragon Hall, where Cheng Qingyu resided, was full of geniuses. Becoming a Five Cauldron Pill Refiner immediately after joining the Pill Saint Palace was not uncommon, so the sensation it caused was far smaller than Fang Lin’s in the White Phoenix Hall.
After becoming a Five Cauldron Pill Refiner, Cheng Qingyu immediately apprenticed under an elder of the Azure Dragon Hall, focusing every day on cultivation and pill refining, as if he really considered himself a disciple of the Pill Saint Palace.
····
A month later, Fang Lin finished his cultivation. His realm advanced to the late Great Longevity stage, almost reaching the peak of Great Longevity.
"My cultivation is still progressing steadily. In about three more months, it should be completely stable at the pinnacle of Great Longevity, and I can attempt a breakthrough to the Immortal realm." Fang Lin mused privately.
Just as Fang Lin had barely finished his cultivation and was adjusting his breath for stabilization, his jade slip vibrated; it was Ouyang Han looking for him.
Fang Lin immediately went to the hall, but upon arrival saw Ouyang Han looking gloomy, while others stood in the hall.
"Hmm?" Fang Lin’s gaze fell on two individuals wearing black-and-white garb, feeling a bit wary inside.
"People from the Law Enforcement Hall!"
