The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 1907: Chapter 2004: Universe Creation Furnace

Qi Liansheng waved his hand, and a Pill Furnace appeared before Fang Lin.

As soon as this cauldron appeared, an overwhelming aura seemed ready to soar to the heavens, and the roars of dragons and cries of phoenixes echoed in every direction.

Qi Liansheng placed one hand on this Pill Furnace, suppressing all the phenomena, but just in that instant, the phenomena had already attracted the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

"So, does this prove that my words are not false?" Qi Liansheng said, looking at Fang Lin.

Fang Lin did not respond to Qi Liansheng but instead looked at the Pill Furnace Qi Liansheng took out, his face full of shock.

This cauldron was indeed one of the Three Sacred Furnaces of old, on the same level as the Sun Moon Universe Cauldron Fang Lin previously used. It was the most precious cauldron of the Pill Saint Palace, and the finest Pill Furnace in the world; no other could surpass the Three Sacred Furnaces.

"Universe Creation Furnace! Truly in your hands!" Fang Lin said in a deep voice, his eyes fixed on Qi Liansheng.

The Great Sage Equal to Heaven also came closer, staring at the Universe Creation Furnace, his face full of shock, clicking his tongue in amazement.

On the body of this Universe Creation Furnace, the myriad forms of heaven and earth continuously evolved, from the exotic beasts of the ancient wilderness to today’s Human Clan and Demon Clan, as well as all kinds of flora and fauna, stones and mountains, all manifested around this Universe Creation Furnace. Just looking at this Pill Furnace felt like swimming in the river of time, witnessing the changes of the past, wondrous indeed.

This cauldron is extremely mysterious; even the elders of the old Pill Saint Palace did not know its origin. It was obtained by an old Pill Refiner of the Pill Saint Palace who traveled far, but since no one could use it, it was sealed in the Land of the Divine Cauldrons. For many years, no one in the Pill Saint Palace could awaken this Universe Creation Furnace.

In terms of level, this Universe Creation Furnace does not lose to Fang Lin’s Sun Moon Universe Cauldron at all; back then, Fang Lin already had the Sun Moon Universe Cauldron, so he didn’t try to awaken the Universe Creation Furnace.

Moreover, Fang Lin was not a greedy person; one Sun Moon Universe Cauldron was entirely sufficient for his use, and there was no need to covet the Universe Creation Furnace.

"Since the Universe Creation Furnace is in your hand, where is the Honghuang Immortal Furnace?" Fang Lin asked.

Qi Liansheng smiled slightly, "The Honghuang Immortal Furnace is also naturally with me, but I did not bring it along; I have hidden it in an absolutely safe place."

Of the three Great Sacred Furnaces of the Pill Saint Palace, the Sun Moon Universe Cauldron was already destroyed, the Universe Creation Furnace was right before them, and the other Honghuang Immortal Furnace was hidden away by Qi Liansheng.

Fang Lin looked at the Universe Creation Furnace, somewhat lost in thought, while the Great Sage Equal to Heaven stood silently by, as this was ultimately a grudge between former siblings of the Pill Saint Palace, unrelated to him, and there was no need to interfere.

"I bear the name of a traitor, fleeing the world with two Sacred Furnaces, surviving until now. This Universe Creation Furnace, now it’s time to return it to you." Qi Liansheng gently caressed the Universe Creation Furnace and said to Fang Lin.

After saying this, Qi Liansheng turned to leave, without any hesitation.

"Stand still!" Fang Lin shouted, and Qi Liansheng paused, looking back, only to see Fang Lin throwing a punch that knocked Qi Liansheng to the ground.

However, Fang Lin did not use much force in this punch, and Qi Liansheng’s cultivation was not inferior to Fang Lin’s, so he merely staggered and sat on the ground, not really hurt.

"Why didn’t you reveal yourself earlier?" Fang Lin gritted his teeth and said.

Qi Liansheng smiled wryly, "Before this, you had things you had to do, and I had things I had to do, all beyond our control. Besides, there was no suitable time to meet."

Fang Lin clenched his fist, taking a deep breath, feeling nothing but infinite emotion and sorrow in his heart.

"Not willing to say anything more, in such a rush to leave? Are you afraid saying too much will make you feel guilty?" Fang Lin asked coldly, his tone was cold, but his expression softened significantly.

Qi Liansheng stood up from the ground, dusting off the dirt on him, and said, "There’s nothing much to explain; the Great Elder is dead, the Old Palace Master is also long gone, and the former Pill Saint Palace is only left with a few of us. Whether I betrayed the Pill Saint Palace or not doesn’t matter now. No matter how you, Fang Lin, see me, I haven’t forgotten the Great Elder’s exhortations. I’ve remembered them all these years. If the day comes when we both escape the calamity, I will rebuild the Pill Saint Palace, until death."

"Rebuilding the Pill Saint Palace is not just for you, Qi Liansheng, but me, Fang Lin, as well." Fang Lin said.

Qi Liansheng smiled and nodded, saying, "As for the Honghuang Immortal Furnace, if you want it, I will bring it to you soon. As for the things you need to do, I really can’t help much, but I hope you take care."

After saying this, Qi Liansheng left, and Fang Lin did nothing more, allowing him to go.

The two of the former Pill Saint Palace now had different paths to travel; whether it was Fang Lin or Qi Liansheng, the burdens on their shoulders were not light.

"With this Pill Furnace, refining the Pills you want should be smoother, right?" said the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

Fang Lin nodded; he had been worried about not having the finest Pill Furnace before, but unexpectedly, Qi Liansheng delivered the Universe Creation Furnace at this time, making Fang Lin feel like Qi Liansheng had timed it perfectly.

Nonetheless, thinking about it, it was just a coincidence because even without Qi Liansheng delivering the Universe Creation Furnace at this moment, Fang Lin would still have started refining Pills.

····

After leaving the Ancient Demon Ridge, Qi Liansheng headed straight towards the Seven Seas.

For so many years, he had actually been hiding within the Taoist Sect of the Seven Seas, and even the Pill Pulsar of the Taoist Sect developed and grew under his secret support.

When Fang Lin competed with the genius alchemist Jade Qincheng from the Taoist Sect’s Pill Pulsar back in the day, he found it strange that Jade Qincheng seemed to perform the Alchemy of the Pill Saint Palace. He thought the Taoist Sect might have obtained some incomplete ancient alchemy skills of the Pill Saint Palace from somewhere.

In fact, many alchemy techniques of the Taoist Sect’s Pill Pulsar were secretly taught by Qi Liansheng, who always regarded the Taoist Sect’s Pill Pulsar as a future force for rebuilding the Pill Saint Palace.

However, now that the Nine Countries Seven Seas were all under the Supreme Saint Hall, the Taoist Sect was no exception. The Taoist Sect’s Pill Pulsar had declined due to many changes and was long gone.

Qi Liansheng did not mind these matters, but he felt sorry for Jade Qincheng. Such a good alchemy talent, ended up being forced to merge with the ancient magic tree due to his Reviving Dead Wood Body and was lost forever.

Regarding the current world’s situation, although Qi Liansheng had a cultivation of the Destiny Realm, he knew he couldn’t do much. He could only do his best to protect the Honghuang Immortal Furnace.

"Qi Liansheng, how long do you plan to hide under our noses?" Just as Qi Liansheng silently skated across a vast sea, a cold voice echoed.

Qi Liansheng’s expression did not change; as his figure halted, three figures appeared, blocking Qi Liansheng’s path and cutting off his retreat.

ps: This is the fourth update, unknowingly, over two thousand Chapters have passed, and the end of the story is getting closer. The hardships will eventually pass, and everything will get better.
