The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1398 - Chapter 1398 Chapter 1496 I Come Only to Kill

Chapter 1398: Chapter 1496: I Come Only to Kill Chapter 1398: Chapter 1496: I Come Only to Kill Boundless Mountain showed no sign of stopping, and it barreled straight toward the group of approaching figures.

The middle-aged Taoist who initially exuded an aggressive aura turned pale almost immediately as he neared.

The momentum of Boundless Mountain was too terrifying, instilling primal fear in his heart, seemingly making his body much heavier.

The disciples following him felt even worse, their faces deathly pale with fear and desperation clawing at them, wishing they could escape at once.

“What exactly are you? Do you have a death wish?” the middle-aged Taoist said, his tone weighed down with grim solemnity.

Fang Lin didn’t waste his breath on the man. Boundless Mountain continued to steamroll forward–regardless of what lay in its path, you’d either be crushed to death by my mountain or dodge out of the way.

As expected, the middle-aged Taoist and his companions didn’t dare to confront Boundless Mountain directly and hurriedly dodged to the side seeing that the peak showed no signs of halting.

“Uncle-Master, what should we do now? Green Goat Palace is just ahead,” a young Taoist said to the middle-aged one with a bitter face.

The middle-aged Taoist cursed under his breath and made a beeline for Fang Lin, who stood atop the mountain.

Attack the horse before the man, capture the king before the soldiers, this logic was understood by everyone. Unable to stop the mountain, the middle-aged Taoist planned to kill or capture the young man on the mountain to halt the destruction.

A good plan indeed, but he underestimated Fang Lin’s strength and overestimated his own.

The middle-aged Taoist, with a first-layer Spirit Source cultivation, was considered a very formidable expert within the Green Goat Palace.

At that moment, the middle-aged Taoist brandished a golden longsword, his form swift like the wind as he flew towards Fang Lin at the summit.

A clean, dazzling strike, emitting brilliant golden light, aimed directly at Fang Lin’s back.

“Courting death!” Fang Lin turned, looking indifferently at the middle-aged Taoist, with no intent of raising a hand against him.

Seeing Fang Lin neither defend nor dodge, the middle-aged Taoist secretly rejoiced, thinking that the young man was too arrogant. Did he really see himself as a powerful being who could look down on the world?

The next moment, the Taoist’s sword had reached Fang Lin’s side, just moments from piercing his body.

But those short few inches became an insurmountable distance that filled the middle-aged Taoist’s heart with despair.

An invisible force descended upon him, rendering him immobile. Even with all the power he could muster, the sword in his hand couldn’t inch forward.

The middle-aged Taoist’s face twisted in shock, gazing intently; a vertical eye had appeared on Fang Lin’s forehead, emitting a faint white light.

“Heavenly Eye! How is this possible?” The middle-aged Taoist exclaimed in disbelief. Upon witnessing Fang Lin’s use of the Heavenly Eye, he was utterly devastated.

Fang Lin had no intention of wasting time. A dagger appeared in his hand, and with a swift ‘pfft,’ he beheaded the middle-aged Taoist.

“Uncle-Master!” The young Taoists watched the scene unfold, each of them horrified, never expecting their Uncle-Master to be decapitated without even touching a hair on the opponent.

The young disciples turned and fled, overwhelmed by fear of Fang Lin.

Fang Lin paid no mind to the minor disciples; such small fry weren’t worth chasing.

With a kick, he sent the middle-aged Taoist’s headless corpse tumbling down, where it splashed into the sea, to be devoured completely by Sea Beasts within moments.

As for the middle-aged Taoist’s horror-stricken head, Fang Lin tied it with a rope and hung it on Boundless Mountain.

But Boundless Mountain was too vast, and such a head hanging there hardly drew any attention.

“Is there a place called the Green Goat Palace ahead?” Fang Lin muttered to himself as Boundless Mountain continued to advance.

About half an hour later, another island appeared ahead, slightly larger than the previous one but not significantly so.

Fang Lin noticed that there were quite a few people on the island and there stood a grand Taoist temple, which was the Green Goat Palace.

At this moment, the Green Goat Palace was in complete disarray.

The appearance of Boundless Mountain had thrown the Green Goat Palace into panic. They had already learned that the middle-aged Taoist had died at Fang Lin’s hands and knew that an island had been crushed by this very mountain.

The Palace Master of the Green Goat Palace, a very elderly Taoist, was now standing in front of the Green Goat Palace, backed by the palace’s powerful experts.

However, the Green Goat Palace was obviously a third-rate power within the Taoist Sect; it didn’t even have a Minor Longevity among them, and there were only six or seven Spirit Source experts.

The cultivation of that Green Goat Palace Master was not weak, having reached the fifth level of Spirit Source, but unfortunately, in the eyes of Fang Lin, such power was still too weak.

“Whence comes this friend, I implore you to show mercy and not destroy the Green Goat Palace’s century-old foundation. Please go around!” the Green Goat Palace Master called out loudly to Fang Lin.

By this time, Boundless Mountain was within less than a hundred miles of the Green Goat Palace. Those from the Taoist Sect with good eyesight could all see the human head hanging beneath the mountain, belonging to one of the elders of their Green Goat Palace.

Many disciples of the Green Goat Palace wore expressions of anger. This was an elder of their Green Goat Palace who had been beheaded and hung on that great mountain, a blatant insult and an act of intimidation.

The Palace Master of the Green Goat Palace naturally saw that head as well, feeling a sense of desolate sorrow within his heart. While he certainly felt anger, he didn’t dare voice it, fearing that provoking the unfamiliar young man might lead to a full-on assault with the mountain crashing down and putting an end to the century-old foundation of the Green Goat Palace.

Fang Lin’s face showed no emotion, completely unresponsive to the Palace Master’s words. Boundless Mountain continued its approach toward the Green Goat Palace, getting closer and closer.

“Palace Master, what should we do?” a Green Goat Palace elder asked anxiously.

“Let’s fight him!”

“That’s right! He killed Elder Liu; we must avenge him!”

“We still have the treasure of our palace. As long as we summon it, we will surely be able to withstand this man.”

…

Some of the Green Goat Palace disciples were furious and wanted to desperately resist Fang Lin.

However, the elders of Green Goat Palace were very clear that this strange young man was definitely not someone the Green Goat Palace could contend with.

As Boundless Mountain drew increasingly close and the sense of oppression grew stronger, the Green Goat Palace Master said through gritted teeth, “The Green Goat Palace is willing to offer up treasures in the hope that you will detour and spare the Green Goat Palace a way to live.”

At these words, many disciples of the Green Goat Palace were dumbfounded, showing looks of disbelief.

“Palace Master! You absolutely mustn’t do this!”

“How can we give away the treasures of the Green Goat Palace to someone else?”

“Let’s fight him!”

…

Fang Lin still showed no expression, and Boundless Mountain flew directly over the island.

“I came only to kill.” A cold and merciless voice emerged from Fang Lin’s mouth.
