The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1102 - Chapter 1102 Chapter 1101 Dugu Nians Thoughts

Chapter 1102: Chapter 1101: Dugu Nian’s Thoughts Chapter 1102: Chapter 1101: Dugu Nian’s Thoughts Fang Lin smiled, “Those Alchemy Tao noble families have been looking down on me for more than a day or two.”

Elder Tiankui patted Fang Lin’s shoulder, very satisfied with his mindset.

“In three days, you can go to North Town Hall,” Elder Tiankui said. “I’ll have Mengxian take you there and help you get familiar with some matters.”

Fang Lin nodded, then suddenly remembered the incident at Fall Demon Cliff and told Elder Tiankui about it.

Elder Tiankui listened, his expression becoming extremely grave; he remained silent throughout Fang Lin’s narration.

It was only after Fang Lin had finished that Elder Tiankui finally let out a long breath, but the grave look on his face did not ease in the slightest.

Fang Lin also paid attention to Elder Tiankui’s expression. Seeing him so serious, he guessed that there must be no small secret beneath Fall Demon Cliff; otherwise, a personage like Elder Tiankui would not show such an expression.

“Who would have thought that the ancient demon from back then is still alive,” Elder Tiankui said in a deep voice.

Fang Lin, curious, asked, “What exactly is the demon that was cast into Fall Demon Cliff a thousand years ago? Is it a person, or a demon beast?”

Elder Tiankui shook his head. “Neither human nor demon beast but a true demon.”

Fang Lin was startled, neither human nor demon beast? A true demon?

What exactly is a demon?

In Fang Lin’s previous life, there was no existence of demons, not even the concept of demons. At most, there were some evil-doers labeled as demonic but still of the Human Clan.

But Elder Tiankui said that the being beneath Fall Demon Cliff is a true demon, neither human nor demon!

What kind of existence is this?

Fang Lin wanted to ask more, but Elder Tiankui did not say much, as if he were somewhat taboo about this so-called demon.

Seeing this, Fang Lin was tactful and didn’t ask further, but the curiosity lingered in his mind.

What exactly is the demon beneath Fall Demon Cliff?

Fang Lin excused himself, preparing to head to North Town Hall in three days.

After the Talent Battle of Sea Moon City ended, Fang Lin went to train alone in Chaos Demon Valley and sustained no light injuries, while Dugu Nian, who was also injured, rested in Sea Moon City for several days before being taken back to Tiankui Pavilion by Ye Mengxian for better healing.

By this day, Dugu Nian’s injuries had long been healed, and Fang Lin had seen her.

Compared to the time in Sea Moon City, Dugu Nian’s cultivation had further improved, but there was still a distance from the Spirit Bone realm.

Dugu Nian was very perceptive. Although Fang Lin did not exude the slightest aura, she was still clear that the gap between her and Fang Lin had grown even more.

However, Dugu Nian did not show the slightest discouragement. She had a lively chat with Fang Lin, as cheerful and innocent as always.

“I heard you’re going to North Town Hall to be the Hall Master?” Dugu Nian said with an envious face.

Fang Lin nodded, “In three days, I’ll be heading to North Town Hall.”

“Being a Hall Master must be very imposing, I want to be one too,” Dugu Nian said.

Fang Lin smiled slightly, “You can dream, but there’s no chance.”

Dugu Nian immediately became annoyed and wanted to punch Fang Lin.

“You should first focus on getting promoted to Master of Pill,” Fang Lin said, dodging Dugu Nian’s punches while chuckling.

Dugu Nian huffed, “Just a Master of Pill, give me some time and I’ll be promoted.”

Fang Lin looked Dugu Nian up and down, his lips curling slightly, “You’re still a long way from becoming a Master of Alchemy, aren’t you?”

Dugu Nian heard this and was quite dissatisfied but couldn’t help feeling somewhat helpless.

Indeed, as Fang Lin said, Dugu Nian had made rapid progress in Alchemy Tao, but there was still a long way to go before reaching the realm of a Five Cauldrons Pill Refiner. It wasn’t something that could be achieved in the near future.

There was no helping it, Dugu Nian was highly talented, but the Master of Pill was a watershed in alchemy. The difference between a Four Cauldrons Pill Refiner and a Five Cauldrons Pill Refiner was vast, even though it was just one realm away.

Dugu Nian’s inability to break into the Five Cauldrons Pill Refiners recently was because she was too young and hadn’t spent enough time immersed in the art of alchemy. Maybe when Dugu Nian was in her twenties, then advancing to a Five Cauldrons Pill Refiner would be a sure thing.

Instead of focusing all her energy on alchemy, Fang Lin thought it would be better for Dugu Nian to devote more effort to Martial Arts and to break through to the Spirit Bone realm as soon as possible.

“Would you like to come with me to the North Town Hall in three days?” Fang Lin asked Dugu Nian.

Hearing this, Dugu Nian showed a hesitant expression, seemingly in a dilemma.

Fang Lin noticed her hesitation and couldn’t help asking, “Are you worried about something? Or do you have other plans?”

Dugu Nian said, “I want to train at Pill Pole Tower.”

The Pill Alliance had several Pill Pole Towers. The Lower Three Kingdoms had one, the Middle Three Kingdoms had three, and the Upper Three Countries possessed nine, with the Qing Nation alone having three Pill Pole Towers.

In addition, there were a few Pill Pole Towers belonging solely to the Pill Alliance, not to the Nine Countries. Only members of the Pill Alliance, and not people from the Nine Countries, were qualified to use them.

Fang Lin had once entered the Pill Pole Tower of the Lower Three Kingdoms and had gained quite a few benefits.

“You want to enter a Pill Pole Tower? Which one?” Fang Lin asked.

“One of the Seven Towers of Pill Alliance,” Dugu Nian replied.

Fang Lin nodded. The Pill Alliance owned seven exclusive Pill Pole Towers, not open to the public. People from the Nine Countries would have to pay a hefty price to enter one of these seven towers.

As a disciple of Ye Mengxian, with Ye Mengxian’s current high status in the Pill Alliance, getting Dugu Nian into a Pill Pole Tower wasn’t difficult at all.

“Since you want to go to a Pill Pole Tower, then go ahead; you should be able to gain many benefits,” Fang Lin said with a smile, patting Dugu Nian’s head.

A smile appeared on Dugu Nian’s face, “When I come out, maybe I will have stepped into the Spirit Bone realm. Then, you’ll have to compete with me.”

“Sure, let’s see how much stronger you can get by then,” Fang Lin said.

After saying that, Fang Lin took out a jade bottle and handed it to Dugu Nian.

“What’s this?” Dugu Nian asked, puzzled, wanting to open the jade bottle.

Fang Lin stopped her and said, “This is Sacred Liquid from the Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree, two drops in total. Use them inside Pill Pole Tower when you get there.”

Upon hearing this, Dugu Nian’s face was full of shock. Sacred Liquid from the Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree was a very famous item among the Human Clan, something that many elder powerhouses desperately sought to breakthrough in cultivation and extend their lifespans, yet they couldn’t obtain it at all.

Fang Lin actually had Sacred Liquid from the Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree, which made Dugu Nian somewhat unable to believe it. Could it be that this guy secretly slipped into Ancient Demon Ridge and stole the Sacred Liquid from there?

Dugu Nian really wanted to ask how he obtained this Sacred Liquid, but she swallowed her words, feeling very pleased inside.

At least, Fang Lin had gotten hold of such good stuff and hadn’t forgotten about her, even giving her two drops.

“I cannot accept something so valuable,” Dugu Nian said, declining it at first and not immediately accepting it.

Fang Lin laughed, “It’s fine, I’ve bathed in a pool of Sacred Liquid; I won’t miss these two drops.”

Dugu Nian: “***”
