The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1050 - Chapter 1050 Chapter 1049 Beast Cauldron

Chapter 1050: Chapter 1049: Beast Cauldron Chapter 1050: Chapter 1049: Beast Cauldron The Demon Saint of the previous generation who disappeared, could he actually be inside this bizarre mountain peak?

If someone said this during normal times, there would certainly be contempt and disbelief.

But now, as the Sky-Swallowing Fox relentlessly attacked the mountain peak with what seemed like madness, it became very possible that the mountain truly housed the lost Demon Saint of the past five hundred years.

With this thought, many Martial Artists felt a nameless shock in their hearts, vaguely sensing that they might witness an event that could change the structure of the Nine Countries.

However, the direction in which this situation would develop was unpredictable to everyone and could potentially become more severe.

The Sky-Swallowing Fox launched continuous attacks on the bizarre mountain peak, putting forth its full strength each time with earth-shattering might, as if determined to destroy everything.

Yet no matter how frenzied the Sky-Swallowing Fox was, no matter how hard it tried, the mountain remained intact, not the slightest bit destroyed.

Gradually, the Martial Artists present all breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the Sky-Swallowing Fox’s goal would not be achieved.

“No! Absolutely not! You must die! Even if you are forever suppressed under this mountain, I cannot become the new Demon Saint unless you die!” the Sky-Swallowing Fox roared furiously, spitting out a relic of the Demon Beast clan.

It was a cauldron, a very peculiar ancient cauldron.

On this cauldron, dense and numerous patterns of Ancient Beasts were carved, each with different shapes. Although crowded, they looked lifelike, as if each pattern was about to come alive.

And the Demon Qi from this cauldron was particularly intense, seemingly even stronger than the Demon Qi of the Sky-Swallowing Fox itself.

“It’s the Beast Cauldron! The precious relic of the Demon Beast clan!” There were many strong individuals in the sky who recognized this cauldron, their expressions growing very grave.

The Demon Beast clan had many precious relics, and this Beast Cauldron was one of them, also a very famous one.

The Beast Cauldron had collected the blood essence and souls of tens of thousands of Ancient Beasts, which were fused within this ancient cauldron. The owner of the cauldron from each generation would nourish it with their Demon Qi.

By now, this Beast Cauldron had been nurtured by the Demon Qi of countless powerful Demon Beasts and had fallen into the hands of the Sky-Swallowing Fox.

By bringing out this cauldron, the Sky-Swallowing Fox was clearly making a severe wager, determined to destroy the previous Demon Saint and the mountain together at any cost.

Only by killing the previous Demon Saint could the old and beastly hearts from Ancient Demon Ridge be dissuaded, to wholeheartedly support the Sky-Swallowing Fox in becoming the new Demon Saint.

Therefore, for the Sky-Swallowing Fox, becoming the new Demon Saint was almost a certainty, requiring just the final push.

But this last step was also the most difficult and crucial one. Should it fail, the Demon Beasts within Ancient Demon Ridge would not acknowledge the Sky-Swallowing Fox.

Unless the Sky-Swallowing Fox annihilated Ancient Demon Ridge, but that was completely unrealistic, although the Fox harbored such extreme thoughts.

The existence of Ancient Demon Ridge was almost synonymous with the history of the Demon Beast clan. No one knew exactly how many powerful and ancient Demon Beasts lay within.

Only by becoming a true Demon Saint would one be entitled to fully understand all the secrets within Ancient Demon Ridge. Until then, no matter how powerful you were, you could not touch Ancient Demon Ridge.

Currently, the Sky-Swallowing Fox was just one step away from becoming the Demon Saint, lacking only the recognition of Ancient Demon Ridge.

To gain the recognition of Ancient Demon Ridge, it needed to kill the previous Demon Saint who disappeared and make him vanish completely.

But now, this mountain sheltered the oppressed predecessor Demon Saint, rendering the Sky-Swallowing Fox utterly unable to make a move.

To fulfill its ambition and purpose, the Sky-Swallowing Fox had already cast aside all caution, summoning the Beast Cauldron to unleash its maximum power and kill the predecessor Demon Saint within the mountain.

The Beast Cauldron floated in front of the Sky-Swallowing Fox, slowly rotating and continually absorbing all kinds of strength from the world around it.

Vegetation withered, Demon Beasts lost their vitality, and even more Martial Artists drained of their power, seemingly sucked dry.

Only those within Monkey Head Town were spared, not having the strength within their bodies sapped by the Beast Cauldron.

“Not good! This cauldron is too powerful, we must retreat quickly! We cannot resist!!” Elder Tiankui said to the people, as a multitude of powerhouses backed away, not daring to approach in the slightest, for fear of becoming hapless souls beneath the influence of the Beast Cauldron.

The three Elders’ complexions were extremely unsightly. Had they known how insane the Sky-Swallowing Fox would become, they would have brought the heavy weapon of the Pill Alliance, so as not to be powerless in the face of the Beast Cauldron.

“Why hasn’t the East Pole Heaven King appeared yet? Could he truly be content to sit idly by?” Elder Tianhong with the red hair said anxiously.

Elder Tiankui and Elder Tianjun both gave a bitter smile. The East Pole Heaven King was enigmatic and had not shown himself for many years. It seemed that even with the Sky-Swallowing Fox causing trouble, this significant figure was not too keen to step in.

“It’s one thing for the other three Heaven Kings not to show up, but this East Pole Heaven King is truly out of line. How are the few of us supposed to clean up this mess?” Elder Tianhong complained.

“Hmm, you three, talking behind my back are you?” An ancient voice, mysteriously sounded, startling Elders Tiankui, Tianjun, and Tianhong to nearly cry out in alarm.

But they immediately showed joy, for this voice was undoubtedly from the long-absent East Pole Heaven King.

“Heaven King, won’t you appear to suppress this Sky-Swallowing Fox?” Elder Tianhong asked hastily.

“Sigh, I’m tied up, ran into some trouble, handle it yourselves for the moment,” the East Pole Heaven King said impatiently, and then no matter how the three Elders called, there was no response whatsoever.

Upon an unnamed lake, a hunched old man in straw raincoat sat at the prow of a flat boat, his face a picture of helplessness as he looked at the figure standing on the lake surface ahead.

That figure was also an old man, but by comparison, he appeared to be infinitely better off; one looked like nobility, the other like a beggar from the streets.

“East Pole, you’ve grown old,” the old man standing on the lake said, his luxurious robe fluttering without wind.

The old man in the straw raincoat gave a wry smile, his fishing pole motionless in hand, “Of course I’ve grown old, I’m not a Demon Beast. Unlike you folks from Ancient Demon Ridge, living for thousands of years as if it’s nothing.”

This old man in a luxurious robe was indeed from Ancient Demon Ridge, an Ancient Demon who had lived who knows how long, with unfathomable strength.

“East Pole, you needn’t get involved with the Sky-Swallowing Fox’s business,” the old man in the luxurious robe said, his tone indifferent.

The old man in the straw raincoat smiled lightly, remaining silent, his fishing pole gently swinging.

With this swing, the old man in the luxurious robe’s expression dramatically changed.

A mere fishing pole seemed to overshadow heaven and earth. The luxurious-robed old man broke out in fine sweat on his forehead; in that instant, he had almost been unable to resist making a move.

“You old bird, still so easily unsettled. You couldn’t even control your Demon Qi just now,” the old man in the straw coat said with a laugh.
