The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 470: Finger of the Firmament

Upon hearing Fang Lin’s words, Chen Wu appeared startled and promptly furrowed his eyebrows.

“I’m curious about any other tricks you’ve yet to reveal.” Chen Wu harrumphed, his hand once again gathering an incredibly frightening force.

“Just a pointing technique, right? I can do that too!” Fang Lin proclaimed, gesturing similarly with a point.

But, his pointing gesture was not directed at Chen Wu, instead, he pointed up towards the sky.

“Playing mysterious!” Chen Wu scoffed coldly, ready to use the terrifying power of his Star-bursting Finger again.

Just then, a loud bang echoed from above the sky, causing all of them to look up.

Subsequently, a towering black finger swept down from the sky, like a pillar supporting the heavens, as if intending to suppress the earth.

Chen Wu’s pupils shrunk dramatically. He hadn’t anticipated that Fang Lin would use such a dreadful Divine Power. This black finger was too powerful, significantly surpassing his own Star-bursting Finger.

“What remarkable martial arts! It’s terrifying!”

“I feel like if I were standing under it, I’d completely shatter!”

“Fang Lin still had such a move hidden, I totally didn’t expect it!”

···

People gasped in shock. The black finger was too horrifying; even before it fully descended, everyone in the area felt pressured.

Only heaven-knows how much pressure Chen Wu, under the black finger, had to endure. But from his ghostly pale face, it was clearly visible that he was having a very tough time.

“Star-bursting!” Chen Wu refused to sit and wait for his death, and immediately counterattacked. He knew he couldn’t dodge it, as this black finger had precisely locked onto his body’s energy. Regardless of where he tried to escape to, he estimated this black finger would earnestly follow.

The Star-bursting Finger was released, its strong aura surged upward, intending to shatter the black finger.

Boom!!!

The next moment, the Star-bursting Finger collided with the giant black finger, as if two stars had collided, causing the sky to change color.

A horrifying aura swept around. Chen Wu, who was at the center of the conflict, was sent flying back, spurting out blood.

Buzz!

At the edge of the arena, a gentle light curtain rose up, blocking the terrifying aftermath in the arena, preventing those outside from being affected.

Despite this, the martial artists outside the arena were still terrified and retreated further.

Finally, the black finger landed, shattering the arena while Chen Wu’s body was directly blasted into the shattered rock, as if he were buried alive.

Gasping for breath, Fang Lin felt waves of weakness spreading throughout his body, as if he had been emptied from inside, with hardly any inner strength left.

He had just used this technique for the first time in his life and, as what was predicted, the consumption was extremely high.

However, the power of this technique was also extremely strong. In Fang Lin’s expectation, once he had used it, he should almost be assured of a victory.

This technique, named Finger of the Firmament, was a martial art that Fang Lin had mastered in his previous life, but due to his low level in this life, it was extremely strenuous to use the Finger of the Firmament. Basically, once it was used, all the inner strength would be consumed and there would be no more power to fight.

If it wasn’t for the overwhelming power of Chen Wu’s Star-bursting Finger putting tremendous pressure on Fang Lin, he would not have used this martial arts technique.

However, since it was used, it was bound to defeat Chen Wu in one fell swoop.

On the outside, Yang Jianye glanced at Han Luoyun and said, “This isn’t a martial art of the Purple Mist Sect, right? I’ve never seen you use it.”

Han Luoyun shook his head, “This is Fang Lin’s own fortune, it’s not a Purple Mist Sect martial art.”

As a matter of fact, Han Luoyun was also perplexed. Fang Lin was always surprisingly astonishing, this time he even exhibited such a powerful martial art. Where did he learn this from?

At Yun Country’s site, many martial artists showed solemn expressions. Especially the disciples of the Hazy Sect, all of them were undoubtedly worried.

He Qiannian’s countenance also changed. He didn’t expect Fang Lin to hold back such a strong martial art, this was simply too surprising.

“Did Chen Wu die?” A martial artist carefully asked.

Not just him, but many martial artists also had this idea. After all, Chen Wu was buried under a lot of rubble. He stood still as if dead.

At this moment, Chen Wu’s body moved a little, then he crawled out from the pile of rubble.

Chen Wu was covered in blood from head to toe, disheveled, and in a complete disarray.

After getting up, Chen Wu spat out a mouthful of blood again, his breath was very weak, and he seemed extremely miserable.

Although he wasn’t dead, looking at Chen Wu’s condition, he already seemed to have lost half of his life.

Chen Wu looked at Fang Lin, his eyes still held an undissipated surprise, but more with an intent to fight.

“You are indeed very strong. This is the first time I’ve suffered this badly since making a name for myself.” Chen Wu started speaking, as if mocking himself.

Fang Lin laughed, “Do you still want to fight with me?”

Chen Wu took a deep breath, “Why not fight?”

Fang Lin looked at him up and down, saying contemptuously, “Look at you, you might not survive if we keep fighting. Is it really necessary to be so desperate?”

“Just a minor injury. It will be healed in a moment.” Chen Wu said, patted the Nine Palace Bag, and pulled out an ancient medicinal herb.

This ancient medicinal herb was full of powerful aura. Although somewhat withered, the medicinal power was still very strong.

Chen Wu swallowed the whole invaluable herb in one gulp, almost like eating a date. Immediately, an overwhelming aura welled up from him. His injuries began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The many martial artists watching the battle were all envious and jealous. This was the elite disciple of a major sect, able to treat such a precious ancient herb like a radish and munch on it. To these independent martial artists, an ancient herb could be a priceless family treasure.

Fang Lin also sighed quietly. This Chen Wu was really something. In order to continue fighting with him, he just ate an ancient medicinal herb casually.

“You eat, I’ll eat too!” Fang Lin didn’t cut corners either, and directly took out a handful of pills to consume, most of which were pills used to restore inner strength.

Seeing Fang Lin eating pills like jelly beans, many independent martial artists felt a toothache. This was like a spendthrift.

Chen Wu’s face twitched. He remembered who Fang Lin was, a Pill Refiner. What was most abundant on him? Pills of course.

At this time, Chen Wu’s injury was rapidly recovering, and Fang Lin’s inner strength was also quickly regenerating. Both were staring at each other with strange expressions.

“These two guys are really something.” Someone said.

Fang Lin’s inner strength recovered extremely quickly, almost restoring fully before Chen Wu’s injury did.

“I heard that the Hazy Sect is also very good at swordsmanship, you haven’t used a sword yet.” Fang Lin said to Chen Wu.

Chen Wu’s eyes were cold: “As you wish.”
