The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 652: Chapter 652: The Ancient Spear Shows its Might

Boom!!!

The Undying Tree hummed, pulsating with a dominating aura as it viciously crashed into the Five Colored Treasure Wheel.

The Five Colored Treasure Wheel dimmed as if struck significantly, wobbling unsteadily as it started falling downwards.

A black skeleton leaped out of the Undying Tree, its one remaining skeletal hand making a grab for the Five Colored Treasure Wheel.

Wang Erdan tried to retract the Five Colored Treasure Wheel, but the black skeleton beat him to it, grabbing it.

“This treasure is mine now,” the black skeleton laughed coldly. Ignoring the Treasure Wheel’s struggles, he retrieved it into the Undying Tree using its force to suppress the artifact.

Wang Erdan’s face turned grave. He quickly activated his treasure mirror, radiating an even more dazzling divine light.

The divine light was indeed formidable, but the Undying Tree was currently emanating vitality, growing increasingly stronger. Initially, the divine light could suppress the Undying Tree, but now, it was struggling to do so.

Fang Lin, occupied by five Battle Puppets, saw the situation becoming increasingly precarious. Thus, he decided to unleash his most formidable strength.

With the Purple Mist Sky Sutra operating in tandem with the bloodline power of Breaking Peak, Fang Lin’s strength soared. Using his spear, he directly pierced a Battle Puppet’s body.

The Battle Puppets, made using Mechanism Skills, became immobilized once their crucial operating points were damaged.

As if having sensed the weaknesses of these Battle Puppets, Fang Lin targeted each one, rendering them immobile, leaving them standing there blankly.

Finally free, Fang Lin directed a spear towards the Undying Tree.

“Seeking death!” The black skeleton ridiculed, disdainfully glancing at Fang Lin, sending a tree branch in his direction.

“The one seeking death is you!” Fang Lin roared, employing his inherited Breaking Peak abilities, and counterattacked against the Undying Tree’s offensive.

However, this wave of attack resulted in a tree branch snapping with a “crack”, the instant release of vitality emerging from the broken branch.

The black skeleton looked stunned, not expecting its own attack to not only fail in injuring Fang Lin but also damage the Undying Tree in the process.

At this point, the black skeleton took measures into its own hands. A thick black fog emerged from his mouth, transforming into a ghastly punch statue, howling downward at Fang Lin.

Upon seeing this, Fang Lin’s eyes flashed. Not daring to meet it head-on, he avoided it using the Nine Heavens Step Skill.

Boom!!!

The black punch statue hit the ground, causing it to tremble non-stop. If it wasn’t for the quick reactions of the trio of Dugu Ruoxu, they would have been within the impact zone.

“Help me restrain it for a while!” Fang Lin activated the Nine Heavens Step, inching closer and closer toward the Undying Tree, while yelling at Wang Erdan below.

Wang Erdan brightened up, despite not knowing what exactly Fang Lin was planning to do. However, he still whole-heartedly smacked his chest, spurting out a mouthful of vital essence.

The vital essence splattered onto the treasure mirror, immediately intensifying its divine light multiple folds, creating a blurry figure that appeared on its surface.

The figure pointed its finger at the Undying Tree as soon as it appeared.

“Not good!” The figure made a pointing gesture along with the illumination of the treasure mirror’s divine light, immediately rendering the Undying Tree immobile. Even the black skeleton was repressed.

Wang Erdan’s face turned pale, void of any color. He slumped onto the ground, breathing weakly. “I’ve given it everything, I can only restrain it for a moment.”

Fang Lin remained silent, a determined look in his eyes. He put away his spear, taking out an ancient spear from the Nine Palace Bag.

As he held the ancient spear in hand, Fang Lin seemed to change. His hair suddenly became fiery red, similar to a raging flame, and his eyes also turned red. His whole body radiated an intense killer aura as if he had turned into a terrifying Asura within the blink of an eye.

“Kill!”

This furious roar seemed to come from both Fang Lin and the ancient spear.

The overwhelming killing aura completely suppressed the Demon Qi of the Undying Tree, engulfing the entire space with murderous intent.

The black skeleton seemed horrified, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at what Fang Lin was holding in his hand.

“This spear…” The black skeleton appeared to want to say something.

Fang Lin had already charged up front by then, his vision turning entirely red, his mind filled with a frenzied killing intent.

Splat!

The ancient spear, carrying a terrifying killing aura, directly penetrated the skull of the black skeleton.

“No!!!”

The black skeleton screamed, its body collapsing instantly.

However, the moment the black skeleton’s body collapsed, a strip of dark light silently flew out, disappearing instantly without a trace.

Spitting out blood, Fang Lin tumbled downwards, loosening his grip on the ancient spear.

But the ancient spear did not fall, its imposing aura even stronger, fiercely piercing into the trunk of the Undying Tree.

The Undying Tree quaked, seemingly terrified of the spear. It thrashed its branches, trying to remove the spear from its body.

Regrettably, the power of the spear was too intimidating. The branches that touched the spear were turned into dust.

The Undying Tree released a muffled wail, shattering with a loud bang.

Fragments of the Undying Tree showered down like raindrops. At that moment, Fang Lin collapsed onto the ground, narrowly escaping fainting.

His body felt dreadful; the spear was too terrifying. Although powerful, it caused Fang Lin to lose his sanity, and his body could not withstand the dreadful killing aura.

Merely using it for a short while nearly caused him to faint. At that moment, he was having a tough time just standing.

Only after the ancient spear thoroughly destroyed the Undying Tree did it return into Fang Lin’s Nine Palace Bag.

Everyone looked at Fang Lin with strange expressions, their eyes clearly shocked.

That unimaginably powerful black skeleton and the Undying Tree were actually taken care of by Fang Lin? Isn’t this too exaggerated?

Fang Lin panted, taking two Pills unconcerned with their reactions and started to meditate to recover his strength.

Upon the destruction of the Undying Tree, the Five Colored Treasure Wheel fell, and, it was, along with the treasure mirror, collected back into Wang Erdan’s bag.

“How do you have so many treasures on you?” Wang Erdan commented with a look of surprise.

Fang Lin shook his head with a bitter smile without saying a word, though secretly on guard against the others.

Although they had fought side by side, it wasn’t like he was familiar with them. If they harbored intentions for the treasures in his possession and decided to make a move against him, he’d be in trouble.

At this point, Chi Yunxiao and Dugu Ruoxu were thinking of taking advantage of Fang Lin’s weakness to snatch his treasures. After all, both of them were in a better condition than Fang Lin. If they were to make a move, they had a high chance of success.

Mei Yingxue didn’t show any signs of doing the same. It seemed like she had no interest in the treasures Fang Lin had with him. However, people’s hearts are sometimes unfathomable. Who could tell if she was truly disinterested?

The atmosphere became subtly tense.
