The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 707: Chapter 707: Zhou Yishui’s Plot

“Senior, is there a way for us to leave this Supreme Saint Hall?” Fang Lin asked inwardly.

It was a while before Old Dried Corpse responded to Fang Lin, causing Fang Lin to suspect that he had fallen into a slumber.

“The Supreme Saint Hall is unlike any other place. I never thought there would be one here. This hall is imbued with a distinct indomitable power, left behind by a terrifyingly powerful figure who is beyond our imagination. He also established inviolable rules. Unless I appear in my true form and use my strongest power, I cannot possibly break these rules.” Old Dried Corpse said, his tone unprecedentedly solemn, even carrying a hint of shock.

Fang Lin understood why he was shocked and just who the unimaginable tough figure Old Dried Corpse mentioned was.

Martial Lord Mo Shouhe!

One of the most phenomenal Martial Lords back in the day, with immeasurable power, once suppressed the Ancient Beast Kunpeng in the Extreme North Sea with bare hands.

This Supreme Saint Hall was established by Mo Shouhe. This place is merely a branch hall, but it contains a fraction of Mo Shouhe’s power from his prime.

This almost insignificant power makes the Supreme Saint Hall indestructible, akin to a mini world. Even if the Old Dried Corpse appears in his true form, he has to use his actual skills to break it.

Fang Lin was filled with emotions. He did not harbor much hope on Old Dried Corpse, just asking out of routine.

“Rumor has it that the Supreme Chart is the only means to open the Supreme Saint Hall. Moreover, if someone can pass the test in the Supreme Saint Hall while holding the Supreme Chart, they will become the master of the Supreme Saint Hall.” Old Dried Corpse said, causing Fang Lin to be taken aback.

“What? Someone in possession of the Supreme Chart can become master of the Supreme Saint Hall if they pass the test? Then won’t Zhou Yishui succeed?” Fang Lin exclaimed inwardly, his expression turning gloomy.

No wonder Zhou Yishui seemed so smug. Fang Lin had assumed it was because he had entered the Supreme Saint Hall first. Now, upon hearing the Old Dried Corpse’s words, he finally understood that Zhou Yishui had very big plans – control of the Supreme Saint Hall.

Even though it’s only a branch hall and far smaller than the actual Supreme Saint Hall, its value was incalculable. The one controlling this Supreme Saint Hall holds an incredibly powerful weapon that can sweep away thousands.

Moreover, he and others were still within the Supreme Saint Hall. If Zhou Yishui gains control of the Supreme Saint Hall, won’t they be at his mercy? Even if they pass the test of the Supreme Saint Hall, they might not be able to leave.

“Damn it!” Fang Lin cursed inwardly. After realizing this, he had a bad feeling.

“There’s another way to become the master of the Supreme Saint Hall, but I’ve only heard rumors about it. I do not know if they are true or not.” Old Dried Corpse said.

“Please tell us, senior.” Fang Lin chimed in. Time was not on his side. He must act quickly. Otherwise, once Zhou Yishui gains control of the Supreme Saint Hall with the Supreme Chart, it would be too late.

To this, Old Dried Corpse replied, “I’ve heard that anyone who passed the test of the Supreme Saint Hall in a single attempt can become its master, even without the Supreme Chart.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Lin quickly latched onto the main point and asked, “Has anyone passed the test of the Supreme Saint Hall in one attempt before?” @@novelbin@@

“Of course, there have been more than one. These individuals invariably became the dazzling figures of their era.” Old Dried Corpse replied.

Fang Lin stayed silent before asking, “May I know what kind of reward there is if one passes the test of the Supreme Saint Hall in a single attempt?”

Hearing Fang Lin’s words, everyone looked at him in astonishment, while Zhou Yishui’s face darkened.

“Fang Lin, don’t overthink. The challenges here are too difficult to pass in a single attempt.” Wang Erdan tried to discourage him.

Fang Lin shook his head, giving Zhou Yishui a cold smirk as if to say he saw through his plans.

“Those who pass the challenge in one attempt can become the master of the Supreme Saint Hall.” A cold voice echoed. There was no attempt to hide anything. This was one of the rules Mo Shouhe had established here. If someone can pass the challenge in one attempt, the Supreme Saint Hall would obey Mo Shouhe’s remaining rules and regard them as its master even if they do not possess the Supreme Chart.

“Well, that’s good.” Fang Lin flashed a smile. Although he knew the difficulty in passing the challenge in one attempt was great, he had no choice but to give it his all.

“Humph! Ridiculous. He actually dares dream of passing the test of the Supreme Saint Hall in one attempt. I have the Supreme Chart, the Supreme Saint Hall will eventually be mine.” Zhou Yishui smirked inwardly with no trace of worry. After all, he was not far from passing the challenge. In addition, he held the Supreme Chart, so the Supreme Saint Hall was essentially his.

“Once I gain control of the Supreme Saint Hall, all of you will become my slaves.” Zhou Yishui contemplated, looking at Fang Lin and the others with indifference.

Fang Lin’s injuries healed, and with the aid of Pills along with his supreme body, his recovery was remarkably swift.

Before Fang Lin had recovered from his injuries, Zhou Yishui stepped onto the golden road once again to face the test.

Although Fang Lin was somewhat anxious, he didn’t rush inside. He adjusted himself to peak condition before stepping onto the golden road with a solemn expression.

As soon as he stepped in, Fang Lin was momentarily dazzled, before finding himself in a vague land.

“Hmm?” Fang Lin was taken aback when he discovered that his cultivation level had unexpectedly dropped to Human Origin Fifth Level.

“What happened?” Fang Lin was horrified. He had just been at Heavenly Origin Second Level. How could his cultivation level drop to Human Origin Fifth Level in the blink of an eye?

Meanwhile, in front of Fang Lin appeared a shadow slowly taking form.

When Fang Lin saw the face of this figure he was shocked. Wasn’t that him?

Another Fang Lin!

He too was exuding the aura of the Human Origin Fifth Level, identical to Fang Lin’s current cultivation level. Except for the look in his eyes, everything else was the same as him.

“Defeat me, and you can enter the next challenge.” The other Fang Lin spoke in a voice as cold as the one in the great hall before.

Fang Lin had a grave look on his face. He finally understood what this test entailed—suppressing his cultivation level and then having to defeat an opponent on par with him.

Most importantly, this opponent happened to be himself.

Defeating oneself allows one to enter the next challenge.

With a bitter smile, Fang Lin observed that this challenge was quite unique, but undoubtedly it was also extremely difficult.

“Let’s see which one of us is stronger!” Fang Lin shouted, taking the lead in attacking.
