The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1459 - Chapter 1459 Chapter 1557 Pill Alliance Talent

Chapter 1459: Chapter 1557: Pill Alliance Talent Chapter 1459: Chapter 1557: Pill Alliance Talent Flesh and blood regathered, a long and gentle process.

The Kylin Demon Bone was now completely wrapped in one whole piece of flesh, with the sound of a heartbeat from inside growing ever clearer, the originally faint vitality now far more intense.

This was Fang Lin’s Demon Bone, and the flesh born atop this Demon Bone was also a part of Fang Lin’s body.

Although it was merely a piece of flesh, it could continue to grow, ultimately enabling Fang Lin to recover his physical body.

Of course, Fang Lin had previously been shattered to dust, and heaven knows how long it would take for him to fully recover.

Seven years, it had taken Fang Lin under the power of the Sacred Tree to barely awaken a thread of vitality, and to restore his entire body, the required time would certainly not be short.

Perhaps ten years, perhaps a hundred, or perhaps even longer.

The Kylin Demon Bone was nurturing Fang Lin’s body, while that True Dragon Demon Bone was cultivating what once was the body of an extinct True Dragon.

This piece of True Dragon Demon Bone, originally devoid of any vitality, held only the lingering breath left behind by the True Dragon.

But this True Dragon Demon Bone first received nourishment inside Fang Lin’s body and then was watered by the power of the Sacred Tree here, gradually awakening the True Dragon Vitality within the Demon Bone.

Compared to Fang Lin’s revival, the awakening of this wisp of True Dragon Vitality could be deemed a miracle within miracles.

Because the True Dragon had long vanished, countless ages had passed, and the vitality had long been severed.

Yet within this desiccated Dragon Bone, a faint breath of Dragon Qi astonishingly awakened; though very weak, it was an incredibly surprising start.

Perhaps one day, the True Dragon would reappear between heaven and earth again.

Both Demon Bones were each nurturing vitality, and as they were located together and both belonged to Fang Lin’s Demon Bones, it was inevitable for an intermingling of auras.

In this subtle and unnoticeable way, the breath of True Dragon Qi was transferred into Fang Lin’s flesh and blood, and traces of Fang Lin were also left within the True Dragon Demon Bone.

As for what changes these two Demon Bones will undergo, that remains unknown.

The decline of the Pill Alliance, under the series of measures taken by the Western Moon King, finally found relief.

But it was merely relief, and the real problems were far from being completely resolved; the Pill Alliance remained the same disdained Pill Alliance.

In order for the Pill Alliance to rise again, the Western Moon King inevitably had to call those Pill Refiner Talents who had secluded themselves for years out of seclusion.

After all, the Pill Alliance possessed profound heritage; many of its past Talents had chosen seclusion, using this method to enhance their Cultivation and research their individual Alchemy Tao.

These Pill Alliance Talents, each one among the best of their peers, every person stepping out was no weaker than the Long Family’s Long Zhixin at that level.

There were even numerous Talents who were even stronger than Long Zhixin.

These are the true Pill Alliance Talents!

When Fang Lin was still in the Pill Alliance, although many called him the first genius of the Pill Alliance, he was only recognized among the younger generation of his time. If one considered the geniuses of past generations, the comparison would not be so clear-cut.

Among these geniuses, some had long been famous, while others remained unsung. The Pill Alliance invested greatly in cultivating these talents, and unless the Pill Alliance was facing an existential crisis, they would not lightly ask these geniuses to exit seclusion.

During the initial contest between the Taoist Sect’s Pill Pulsar and the Pill Alliance in terms of Alchemy Tao, the Pill Alliance contemplated whether to call forth those geniuses in seclusion to join the battle, but ultimately they did not disturb them.

However, now the Pill Alliance was in decline, and the Western Moon King was well aware that if these geniuses continued in seclusion, the Pill Alliance might truly be beyond salvation.

Therefore, he made a resolute decision to have these geniuses of the Pill Alliance leave seclusion, hoping to leverage their strength and reputation to restore the Pill Alliance to its former peak.

Indeed, it was a decisive and wise choice. After these geniuses of the Pill Alliance exited seclusion and became aware of the events that had transpired, they each expressed their willingness to contribute to the resurgence of the Pill Alliance.

After all, they were talents cultivated by the Pill Alliance and harbored deep feelings for it. Seeing the Alliance in jeopardy, they naturally wouldn’t abandon it.

The Western Moon King immediately appointed a group of these talented individuals from the Pill Alliance to join the upper echelon, sharing governance over the Alliance with the existing high-level members.

In addition, some other talents were placed in charge of various regions to unify and lead the people’s hearts.

Those dispatched from the Pill Alliance, renowned figures with their own capabilities and means, were sure to impress.

Moreover, the Western Moon King opened the treasury of the Pill Alliance, taking out a collection of heavenly and earthly treasures to reward a group of the Alliance’s veterans.

Naturally, this was to win over the people’s hearts; it was clear to see, and the effect was indeed present. Many Pill Refiners, previously hesitant about whether to leave the Pill Alliance, chose to stay upon witnessing this. They hoped that persevering for a few more years could lead to prominence within the Pill Alliance and possibly a high position.

Under this series of measures, the Pill Alliance not only reversed its decline but also began showing signs of recovery. Some Pill Refiners returned to the Alliance, and the internal affairs stabilized considerably, with fewer rumors spreading.

Most of the credit for this went to the geniuses who departed seclusion. They truly devoted themselves and kept the Pill Alliance from sliding further into the abyss.

As a result, the Alchemy families began to feel a headache. The Pill Alliance’s foundation was ultimately too profound; the participation of these Alchemy talents upon leaving seclusion made the Alchemy families hesitant to take action.

Some experts from the Alchemy families proposed a plan to discreetly assassinate these geniuses of the Pill Alliance, but the idea received little support.

Furthermore, once the plan reached the ears of Dragon Haotian, he immediately berated and condemned the proposal as foolish.

It was clear to everyone that if the Alchemy families sent Assassins against the Pill Alliance talents at this critical juncture, even if they succeeded, it would bring no benefit to the families.

Should those geniuses fall, everyone would assume the Alchemy families to be the perpetrators, leading to widespread prejudice against them and sympathy towards the Pill Alliance.

The Alchemy families had only recently established their current favorable standing among the people. If they truly attempted to assassinate these Pill Alliance geniuses, they would lose the goodwill of the people.

In reality, even if the Alchemy families wanted to assassinate these Pill Alliance geniuses, it would be extremely difficult. Not to mention the personal power of these talents, the Pill Alliance had also deployed experts to protect them covertly. In addition, the Western Moon King had already made arrangements with the Hidden Kill Hall, which agreed to secretly protect these Pill Alliance geniuses.

Though the Hidden Kill Hall was an organization of Assassins, it still had ties to the interests of the Pill Alliance. Therefore, they did not refuse the Western Moon King’s request and sent a considerable number of operatives to guard these talents.

Within Yuan Country, a particular branch of the Pill Alliance was managed in an orderly fashion by a genius of the Pill Alliance named Li Zhangyi, who emerged over four hundred years ago.

“It’s a pity that Fang Lin is dead; otherwise, I would have liked to compete with him to see whose Alchemy Tao is stronger,” Li Zhangyi would often say this with conviction, harboring a bias against Fang Lin, whom many praised, believing himself to be stronger.
