The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1225 - Chapter 1225 Chapter 1224 Devouring Heaven Skill

Chapter 1225: Chapter 1224: Devouring Heaven Skill Chapter 1225: Chapter 1224: Devouring Heaven Skill The heavens drastically changed! The stars shifted!

Fang Lin casted several hand seals, employing a formidable pill refining method that had never been used in this era before.

Everyone in Flat Sea City could see the vast starry sky dimming at a speed visible to the naked eye, as the stars began to lose their light, as if the night sky was headed towards depletion at this moment.

All the martial artists could distinctly feel something disappearing around them, but couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was–just a sense that something was missing.

“It’s nature’s spiritual energy! Nature’s spiritual energy is gone!”

“From heaven to earth, all of nature’s spiritual energy has been siphoned away.”

“Why has this happened? It’s too terrifying.”

“I feel like even the heavens are gone now.”

****

Many martial artists from the Nine Countries cried out in shock, while the pill refiners were utterly alarmed, their eyes wide with astonishment as they stared at the person on the stage.

Fang Lin had forcefully plundered all of the spiritual energy from above and below Flat Sea City, channeling it into the pills he was refining.

The amount of spiritual energy was so immense that Fang Lin, while forcefully plundering it, spewed out three mouthfuls of fresh blood consecutively due to aggravated internal injuries, experiencing unbearable pain in his chest.

Yet Fang Lin clenched his teeth and endured, for no matter what, he had to perform this pill refining method to crush Jade Qincheng with an overwhelming force.

The pill refiners below didn’t know that Fang Lin had not only plundered all of the spiritual energy from around Flat Sea City but had even taken the spiritual energy from the depths of the heavens.

Fang Lin knew that after doing this, Flat Sea City would not see daylight for the next five years, forever enveloped in night, and only gradually returning to normal after ten years.

This pill refining method employed by Fang Lin was known as the Devouring Heaven Skill in his previous life.

This so-called “Devouring Heaven” didn’t mean literally swallowing the heavens but rather capturing all of the spiritual energy under one part of the sky, causing that part of the sky to remain in darkness, bereft of daylight.

This skill truly epitomized a tyrannical method, lauded by many pill refiners in Fang Lin’s past life, yet only the core group of pill refiners at the Pill Saint Palace truly mastered it.

In his past life, Fang Lin was a Pill Sovereign, and once, a powerful individual had paid a great price for a few grade eight holy pills. Fang Lin then employed the Devouring Heaven Skill over a desolate area, depriving a radius of thirty thousand li of its spiritual energy.

There was a powerful individual who once described the impressive scene of Fang Lin using the Devouring Heaven Skill to refine pills:

Vast for thirty thousand li, a single hand could cover the sky!

At this moment, by employing the Devouring Heaven Skill, Fang Lin had essentially swallowed the heavens above Flat Sea City, where tremendous spiritual energy gathered in the Cloud Dream Pill, causing the quality of the pill to continually rise. Before even fully forming, a bright halo had already begun to emerge.

“Is there not a trace of spiritual energy left inside Flat Sea City?”

“Gone, not a trace left, completely clean.”

“How come even the stars are gone? Could it be that Fang Lin also plundered the stars?”

“Impossible, aside from those ancient powers in myths, who can manipulate the stars?”

“Then why were there stars filling the sky earlier, but now it is completely dark?”

“This***”

“Perhaps it’s related to the pill refining method Fang Lin is currently employing, but it’s not terrifying enough to have plundered the stars too.”

****

In Flat Sea City, discussions abounded as some were amazed, others poured out endless praises, while some were heavily puzzled.

Of course, more people were amazed at Fang Lin’s nearly heaven-defying methods. In just a few breaths, he had drawn all the nature’s spiritual energy from top to bottom of Flat Sea City. Such ability wasn’t something just anyone could achieve; at least many old Pill Refiners who had been refining pills for a lifetime had never heard of such a thing. One after another, they spoke of having their eyes opened wide.

Some Disciples of higher Cultivation furrowed their brows and looked up at the night sky, which was void of any trace of light.

These individuals, with no ordinary Cultivation, could vaguely sense that something seemed to be missing from the heavens above Flat Sea City.

At this moment, people from the Seven Seas Taoist Sect were completely dumbstruck, even the exceptional talents such as Qian QingZi and Hui Xuzi were as dumb as wooden chickens, speechless for a long time.

“What, what kind of monster is he?” After a long while, a Taoist Sect Disciple finally spoke in a trembling voice, almost crying.

The others in the Taoist Sect did not think his speech was exaggerated, as everyone was frightened by Fang Lin’s performance.

This overwhelmingly powerful alchemy was something they had never seen before and could hardly even dare to imagine.

In the Pill Pulsars of the Seven Seas Taoist Sect, there were indeed methods of absorbing nature’s spiritual energy for pill refining, but they only absorbed a very small part of it.

Like Fang Lin, who, without a word, absorbed all the nature’s spiritual energy from the entire city clean, those from the Taoist Sect could not even begin to imagine.

It wasn’t until this moment that they deeply realized just how terrifying this young Pill Refiner from the Nine Countries named Fang Lin was.

Drip, drip~~~

Amidst the somber darkness of the night, a light rain suddenly started to fall. To everyone’s horror, the rain was black, like ink. At first, it was very light, just a thin curtain of rain.

But it soon poured down heavily, as if some deity in the deep heavens had overturned an inkstone, causing its ink to flow down and become this black rain.

However, upon realizing that this black rain was not unusual, containing only a lot of impurities, the people breathed a sigh of relief. At first, upon detecting the black rain, they thought it was poisonous and were so scared they almost jumped on the spot.

The reason for this black rain was that Fang Lin had taken away all the spiritual energy from the heavens, leaving behind only the useless impurities.

Without the neutralization of the spiritual energy, these impurities were washed down by the rain, forming this somewhat terrifying black rain.

On the high platform of the array, Fang Lin’s complexion was pale, and a ball of fire floated in front of him.

And standing opposite Fang Lin, Jade Qincheng was drenched by the black rain, yet she was oblivious to it.

She just stared at Fang Lin, her expression exceptionally gloomy and filled with traces of fear.

Buzz~~~

A blinding white light burst forth from within the fireball, as if to illuminate the pitch-black night.

A fragrance of pills that swept over the whole Flat Sea City also started to spread at this moment.

The potency of this fragrance of pills changed everyone’s color; the old and frail who smelled it immediately felt invigorated.

And some people who had chronic hidden injuries that hadn’t healed over the years felt their conditions alleviated and very comfortable.

The fragrance of one pill, a blessing for the entire city!

By comparison, although Jade Qincheng’s pills were also about to be refined, the difference was immediately noticeable.
