The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1266 - Chapter 1266 Chapter 1365 Unpredictable Battle Situation

Chapter 1266: Chapter 1365: Unpredictable Battle Situation Chapter 1266: Chapter 1365: Unpredictable Battle Situation As each of the four treasures displayed their might, a black longsword also appeared in the hands of the Demon Puppet.

With a single slash, unlike the unsightly elder and the middle-aged man, this stroke bore no Sword Intent, only pure Demonic Qi.

Though lacking Sword Intent, the power of this stroke was particularly astonishing, affecting all four treasures simultaneously, causing them to tremble.

The four individuals each spurred their own treasures into action, striving to maintain their ground and confront the Demon Puppet.

Undoubtedly, the strength of these four was inferior to that of the Demon Puppet, but with the power of the four treasures, they were managing to hold their ground against it.

Powerful as the Demon Puppet was, it was not to the extent of being invincible in the world, nor could Fang Lin possibly dominate the world merely with this Demon Puppet.

It is well known that the world is full of masters, each mountain higher than the last; in this era, no one dares claim to be unmatched.

The Demon Puppet was the Dragon Family Demon from a thousand years ago, certainly powerful, but it too had been suppressed by many strong figures from the Nine Countries and nearly erased from this world. If not for Long Jiankong lying dormant for a millennium at Fall Demon Cliff, it would not have survived.

And now, facing off against these four powerful individuals, although the Demon Puppet was not under great pressure, these four had brought out treasures from the Three Sects in order to deal with it.

The four treasures were formidable, indeed precious within the Three Sects. For example, the large bell held aloft by the burly monk came from the Seven Seas Buddhist Sect’s Heavenly Dragon Temple, taken out specifically to suppress formidable individuals from the Nine Countries.

As for the other three treasures, each had its own might, with the most peculiar being the scroll that the sword-wielding youth summoned.

The Confucian sect had four major schools: Heavenly Zither Peak, Spirit Martial Chess Sect, Sea Saint Institute, and Return to Sea Painting Studio.

These four schools nearly dominated the Confucian world. Among them, members from the Sea Saint Institute had been seen in the Qing Nation’s Sea Guarding City during the Nine Countries Talent War, where they competed against Fang Lin and other Talents.

The scroll that the sword-wielding youth had brought forth was a treasure from the Return to Sea Painting Studio, an ink treasure left behind by Confucian ancestors through strenuous efforts, whose power could only be wielded by those of the Confucian sect.

As for the alms bowl and the jade sword, they were naturally very precious treasures from the Buddhist and Confucian sects. With the Cultivation of these four individuals, they could nearly bring out all the power of the four treasures.

Constrained by the four treasures, the Demon Puppet’s Demon Body was held in check, struggling to move, with a strange force refining the Demonic Qi within the Demon Puppet.

This scene caused Zhou Meng and other experts of the Pill Alliance to feel an ill premonition. Even the Dragon Family Demon was being suppressed; could it be that they were facing defeat?

“This Dragon Family Demon is indeed formidable, simultaneously countering four treasures. If it were me, I would have likely been defeated long ago,” the unsightly elder exclaimed from below.

This unsightly elder was a character from eight hundred years ago and the last Sword Head of the Nine Countries. When he rose to prominence, the Dragon Family Demon had already been suppressed for two hundred years, and they were not contemporaries.

However, the time between them was not long, so the unsightly elder had heard many rumors about the Dragon Family Demon, recognizing him as a very formidable figure.

Today, having seen for himself, the unsightly elder was completely convinced; although he was the last Sword Head of the Nine Countries, this title was but an empty honor. When it came to true strength, he probably did not stand among the very top tier of the Nine Countries.

Nevertheless, at this moment, the unsightly elder could also see that despite the Dragon Family Demon’s formidable strength, these Four Greats of the Three Sects each possessed treasures, and not ordinary ones at that. Once these four treasures were in play, the Dragon Family Demon seemed poised to face adversity.

Of course, to say that these four treasured artifacts could defeat the Dragon Family Demon was simply too unrealistic. When the Nine Countries mobilized many powerful figures in the past, none could slay the Dragon Family Demon; now, with merely four treasures, the prospect of defeating it was practically impossible.

Just then, the Demon Puppet made its move.

A punch was hurled, striking the golden bell artifact. Immediately, the sound of the bell resonated, deafening, as if the chants of countless Buddhas were emanating from within the bell.

The Demon Sword swung, sending the Confucian Sect’s jade sword flying away. Although the jade sword was unscathed, its luster had slightly dimmed.

The Demon Puppet then appeared in front of the alms bowl, reaching out with both hands, intending to grasp the bowl in its hands.

Upon seeing this, the golden-robed monk’s heart immediately tightened. He could not let the Dragon Family Demon succeed; if the alms bowl fell into its hands, all would be ruined.

The golden-robed monk immediately tried to recall the alms bowl, but unexpectedly, the Demon Puppet did not actually intend to seize the bowl; it had another scheme in mind.

The Demon Puppet’s real target was the golden-robed monk.

Since the Demon Puppet had once fought and seriously injured the golden-robed monk, it knew the measure of the monk’s ability. Now, by making a move against him, it saw the monk as nothing more than an easy target to crush.

As the golden-robed monk tried to recall the alms bowl, the Demon Puppet found its opportunity and launched a palm attack. With the surging of Demonic Qi, the golden-robed monk was instantly alarmed.

“We must join forces to resist!” said the young man from the Confucian Sect. He too was aware of the Demon Puppet’s formidable power. Letting the golden-robed monk face it alone would certainly result in injury.

All four of them took action together, each channeling their Inner Strength to fend off the Demon Puppet’s palm strike.

Even so, the shock forced all four of them to stagger back, with obvious expressions of surprise on their faces.

If not for their united effort, the golden-robed monk would likely have suffered a great disadvantage from that single strike alone.

The battle then fell into a stalemate; although the Demon Puppet was powerful, it was firmly restrained by the four magical artifacts, and the four individuals were also highly vigilant. They would not face the Demon Puppet alone. Whenever it made a move against any one of them, they all responded together. Every time they ended up at a disadvantage, but it didn’t lead to any major problems.

In this way, the Demon Puppet could not prevail despite a prolonged fight, almost seeming to be led by the nose by these four adversaries.

Indeed, the four artifacts were exceedingly powerful. With the strength of the Demon Puppet, it could potentially destroy any of the artifacts given full force, but the artifacts supported each other, and there were people channeling them, making it extremely difficult to destroy any of them.

“We three from the Three Heroes of Tao Sky have come to aid!” Just as the situation became unpredictable, the Three Heroes of Tao Sky, who had previously been repelled by the ugly elder, appeared.

Although these three were still injured, they had recovered somewhat. Their arrival, while it didn’t immediately change the course of the battle, added some pressure on the Demon Puppet.

The Three Heroes of Tao Sky were well aware that, with injuries, they could not exert their full power and that joining the battle presented great risks.

However, the Three Heroes of Tao Sky had also brought a Taoist Sect treasure, which they had not employed in their earlier skirmish with the ugly elder, saving it in anticipation of confronting the Demon Puppet Dragon’s attempt.
