The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 469: 469

Chen Wu’s palm technique was not sharp or powerful, but it was continuous and persistent, like a gentle stream. It seemed insignificant, but was hard to eradicate.

Fang Lin did not notice in the beginning, not until he was increasingly being cornered by Chen Wu’s palm technique, did he realize the gravity of the situation.

However, by now, he was sinking deeper and deeper in Chen Wu’s relentless onslaught, unable to break free, and find an opening for a counterattack. He seemed to be sinking in a quagmire.

“The palm technique of the Hazy Sect indeed lives up to its reputation.”

“Fang Lin is indeed being entangled by Chen Wu’s palm technique.”

“The current situation is not favorable for Fang Lin.”

“Unsure how Fang Lin can resolve this.”

…

Many of the present martial artists exhibited a grave expression. The Hazy Sect was distinguished for its swordsmanship and palm technique amongst the Lower Three Kingdoms, especially their palm technique, with its unique trait being the most alarming.

What to avoid the most when fighting with a Hazy Sect’s martial artist was a protracted battle. The longer the fight, the deeper one would sink into the Hazy Sect’s unpredictable palm technique, falling into a passive situation, making it impossible to seize the initiative.

Fang Lin apparently didn’t know about the power of the Hazy Sect’s palm technique, and ended up being trapped, resulting in this passive situation.

Standing amidst the people of Qian Country, Yang Xuanfeng also wore a baffled face. He hadn’t expected Fang Lin to have no understanding of the Hazy Sect at all. If he had known earlier, he would have given more reminders.

But now, it was too late, Fang Lin’s movements were already restricted by Chen Wu’s Hazy Palm. Everything now depended on how Fang Lin would break free.

Fang Lin continually tried to break free and regain the advantage. However, the accuracy of Chen Wu’s palm technique was so exceptional that Fang Lin couldn’t find a single flaw.

“What about your movement technique? Why don’t you use it?” Chen Wu continued to use his palm technique while speaking to Fang Lin.

Fang Lin was speechless. Just as he was preparing to use the Nine Heavens Step Skill, Chen Wu’s words left him hesitant. Did Chen Wu already have a strategy in place to deal with his Nine Heavens Step Skill?

However, he did not have time for second thoughts, Fang Lin immediately utilized the Nine Heavens Step Skill. His movements were like a phantom, instantly freeing himself from Chen Wu’s relentless palm technique.

Yet, just at this moment, Fang Lin sensed something amiss. Chen Wu had completely anticipated his movements, advanced quickly, and was not shaken off by Fang Lin.

“How could it be possible?” The people of Qian Country were shocked at witnessing this scene. Could it be that Chen Wu had seen through Fang Lin’s elusive move?

The crowd of martial artists also gasped in surprise. Chen Wu had managed to keep up with Fang Lin’s movements entirely.

Fang Lin himself was a bit taken aback. According to the norm, his Nine Heavens Step Skill should have been impossible to anticipate. But how did Chen Wu manage it?

Boom, boom, boom!!!

With Fang Lin’s unpredictable movements, Chen Wu closely followed, completely unruffled by Fang Lin’s elusive move, and constantly tracking down Fang Lin.

As the two constantly exchanged strikes, the situation was still unfavorable for Fang Lin.

At that moment, Fang Lin abruptly stopped in his tracks, and then completely disappeared.

“What? Where’s Fang Lin?” The crowd was shocked. How did Fang Lin, who was just in the arena, suddenly disappear?

Only the people of Qian Country knew that Fang Lin had used this move when he was fighting Li Guanxin, which was extremely powerful.

Chen Wu’s brow furrowed as he surveyed the surroundings.

“You might blind my sight, but your presence, is still there!” Chen Wu let out a cold humph, abruptly turning around to strike. At the same time, Fang Lin appeared behind Chen Wu, throwing a punch.

Fang Lin was startled, but maintained his composure, disappearing right after the punch, refraining from any further entanglement with Chen Wu.

Chen Wu stood in the middle of the field, he did not move an inch, his stature stable as a mountain. No matter how elusive Fang Lin’s trace, Chen Wu always held the upper hand by maintaining consistency.

This scene made the people of Qian Country inwardly sigh. Was Chen Wu so powerful that even Fang Lin’s Traceless Body Skill had been seen through by him?

Yang Xuanfeng quietly frowned, he himself conceded his inability to deal with Fang Lin’s Nine Heavens Step Skill, but Chen Wu consistently kept up. How did he manage to pull that off?

Zhao Shenji and Liu Wuyin appeared unaffected by the situation. They knew some of Chen Wu’s secrets, hence they didn’t find it surprising when Chen Wu deciphered Fang Lin’s mysterious movement technique.

“The palm technique of the Hazy Sect is not only difficult to untangle, but also leaves a trace of their energy in their opponent during the fight. With this energy trace, it is impossible for Fang Lin to escape Chen Wu’s perception,” explained Liu Wuyin calmly.

Zhao Shenji smiled, “My sister-in-law had a tough time when she was sparring with Chen Wu.”

Liu Wuyin chuckled lightly, “But, if I were to fight Chen Wu again now, I would have a strategy to handle him.”

During their conversation, the situation on the field once again took a turn.

Fang Lin revealed himself, looking slightly uncomfortable. Comparatively, Chen Wu was calm and composed, even wearing a trace of a smile on his face.

“Again!” Fang Lin bellowed, no longer using his movement technique but instead, wielding the White Elephant Trampling Mountain.

Boom!!!

A huge phantom of a white elephant appeared, carrying an overwhelming aura, stomping directly towards Chen Wu.

Chen Wu remained unperturbed, suddenly pointed a finger, and a vast inner strength accumulated on it. As if under this finger, he could shatter the stars and break the sky.

Fang Lin’s eyebrows twitched as he sensed a terrifying aura from Chen Wu’s pointing finger.

“Star-bursting!”

The next moment, Chen Wu lightly pointed a finger at Fang Lin. Immediately, Fang Lin felt as if he had been hit heavily. The white elephant phantom which covered up his whole body instantly collapsed and dissipated.

And Fang Lin himself, also ejected a mouthful of blood and staggered backward, his face instantly became pale.

Fang Lin’s eyes became serious as he stared at Chen Wu. The power of this finger was so strong that it broke through his White Elephant Trampling Mountain instantly.

Seeing Fang Lin injured, the people of Qian Country were worried. Even when he fought against the two prodigies of Meng Country previously, Fang Lin didn’t suffer such an injury.

On the other hand, the people of Yun Country cheered. They were pleased to see Chen Wu in an advantageous position, injuring Fang Lin, especially after Fang Lin had swept two prodigies of Meng Country, which had left them disgruntled.

“Is this your ancestral martial arts?” Fang Lin asked.

Chen Wu’s expression was indifferent, “Regardless, your defeat is certain. As long as I use the second finger, you will inevitably lose.”

This statement, filled with great confidence, was as if Chen Wu already had the situation under control. Accompanied by an unconquerable and invincible momentum, his every move exuded confidence.

The Sect Master of the Hazy Sect, He Qiannian, had a smile on his face. As his direct disciple, Chen Wu’s exceptional performance made him extremely satisfied.

Upon hearing Chen Wu’s statement, Fang Lin curled his lips, “Isn’t it just ancient martial arts? Who doesn’t have it?”
