The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron
Chapter 1466 - Chapter 1466 Chapter 1564 The Soulless Body

Chapter 1466: Chapter 1564: The Soulless Body Chapter 1466: Chapter 1564: The Soulless Body Inside Ancient Demon Ridge, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven stood in front of the Sacred Tree, his expression filled with a hint of anticipation.

Fang Lin’s aura continuously emanated from the Sacred Tree, already very strong and full of vitality, clearly having almost fully recovered.

“Once this kid’s physical body has completely recovered, I’ll send his soul back into it, and after adapting for a while, he should be fine,” the Great Sage Equal to Heaven silently thought to himself.

The only concern now was whether the Sacred Tree might undergo any more unexpected changes; after all, this Sacred Tree was too mysterious and contained inexplicable yet powerful forces, who knows what it would do next.

As for another aura emanating from within the Sacred Tree, it made the Great Sage Equal to Heaven somewhat uneasy.

This was the aura of a True Dragon. As a Demon Beast of his generation and the Demon Saint himself, he was very familiar with the aura of True Dragons. Even though True Dragons had been extinct for countless years, whether it be humans or Demon Beasts, anyone who felt this aura would inherently produce respect and fear from deep within.

The strongest creature between heaven and earth, it wasn’t just idle talk. True Dragons were born with immense strength and physical bodies, positioned at the very pinnacle of all creatures.

In the ancient times, True Dragons were undoubtedly the dominators of heaven and earth, with no creature able to contend against them; all creatures of tens of thousands races were food for the True Dragons.

Especially the Human Clan, they were incomparably frail at the time, no different from ants, and were eaten by True Dragons in untold numbers.

Fortunately, True Dragons had already perished, much to the relief of countless members of the Human Clan and Demon Beasts.

But now, within this Ancient Demon Ridge, within this Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree, there seemed to be a True Dragon slowly awakening.

“OMG, could it be that that piece of bone could really give birth to a True Dragon cub?” the Great Sage Equal to Heaven would often make such conjectures, and the more he thought about it, the more plausible it seemed.

It might not be too likely elsewhere, but within this Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree, anything could happen.

If a dragon really did fly out of it one day, that would be quite interesting.

The more the Great Sage Equal to Heaven thought about it, the more excited he became. He was unafraid of both heaven and earth; even if a True Dragon appeared before him, he would still swing his stick at it, curious to see if True Dragons were indeed as physically indomitable as the legends claimed.

Moreover, even if it were a True Dragon, it would have to bow its noble head in the presence of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. No matter how powerful a True Dragon was, it was still a Demon and would have to submit at the feet of the Demon Saint.

The very first Demon Saint, from ancient times, was a truly remarkable and formidable character. Back when powerful Demon Beasts like True Dragons, Kylins, and Divine Phoenixes still existed, the first Demon Saint was still able to rule over all Demon Clans, and even subdued these strongest of Demon Beasts, demonstrating how powerful the first Demon Saint really was.

As the saying goes, each generation is not as good as the previous one, applicable to both human and demon alike.

After the first Demon Saint, there has never been such a powerhouse again, and it seems that the strength of each subsequent Demon Saint has diminished with each generation.

Of course, among the generations of Demon Saints, there have been a few with exceptionally formidable strength, such as the Old Dried Corpse Jin Zhulong, who with the body of a human became a Demon Saint, single-handedly ending the most splendid era of ancient times.

And like the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, whose strength was much greater than the previous Demon Saint, acclaimed as the strongest in the world. His presence commanded awe and fear in both the Nine Countries and Seven Seas.

However, whether it be Jin Zhulong or the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, they definitely fell short compared to the first Demon Saint.

ROAR!!!

Suddenly, a dragon’s roar echoed from within the Sacred Tree, and all the Demon Beasts in Ancient Demon Ridge heard this dragon’s roar.

Within the Ancient Demon Ridge, the Demon Beasts were all in alarm. The dragon’s roar caught them by surprise, carrying authentic Dragon Qi. Even Ancient Demons who had existed for over ten thousand years felt unease in their hearts and a shiver in the depths of their bloodlines due to this roar.

Only the Great Sage Equal to Heaven was unaffected. On the contrary, the roar incited a mysterious excitement within him.

“What is this sound?” Several Ancient Demons gathered together, their hearts disturbed at this moment.

“It’s probably the sound of a dragon’s roar,” one of the Ancient Demons said with a somewhat grave expression.

Hearing that it was a dragon’s roar, the other Ancient Demons’ faces changed color. As creatures that had survived since the ancient times, they had a wide range of knowledge and were amongst the oldest existences in the Nine Countries. They also had a substantial understanding of True Dragons.

True Dragons had long been extinct, but inside the Ancient Demon Ridge, the sound of a dragon’s roar was heard. What did that mean?

Could there be a hidden True Dragon within Ancient Demon Ridge?

“Lord Demon Saint has always been near the Sacred Tree these days, only leaving for a few days. No one knows what he is actually doing,” said an Ancient Demon with concern.

“There’s no need for us to worry about Lord Demon Saint’s affairs. No matter how chaotic it gets outside, it won’t affect us here in Ancient Demon Ridge,” another Ancient Demon remarked.

The dragon’s roar did not cease. After one, another followed, resounding through the whole Ancient Demon Ridge, making it difficult for many Demon Beasts to remain calm. Even some with weaker Cultivation shivered uncontrollably, daring not to move.

The Ancient Demons were somewhat better off, being of a higher Cultivation, and capable of restraining the fear in their bloodlines.

Great Sage Equal to Heaven also realized that letting the dragon’s roar continue might affect the other Demon Beasts in Ancient Demon Ridge, so with a wave of his hand, he sealed space around the Sacred Tree, preventing the dragon’s roar from spreading.

With this, the Demon Beasts within Ancient Demon Ridge finally regained their calm, but the dragon’s roar still led many to secretly speculate that something major was about to happen inside Ancient Demon Ridge.

A few days passed, and although the dragon’s roar had ceased, now there came the roaring of a Kylin.

Great Sage Equal to Heaven stared at the Sacred Tree with eyes wide open. Now the Kylin was calling, and then the True Dragon was roaring–what was going on? Would a True Dragon and a Kylin emerge from the Sacred Tree after a while?

That would be too shocking, and simply thinking about that scene seemed unbelievable.

“This kid might just turn misfortune into a blessing,” Great Sage Equal to Heaven sat on the ground and pondered for a while, thinking to himself.

Inside the Sacred Tree, amidst a golden light, Fang Lin’s body had taken shape. It was virtually the same as it was seven years ago, with no apparent change.

Of course, there were differences. Currently, Fang Lin’s body contained neither the Demon Bone nor the soul, but simply a fleshly vessel.

To put it bluntly, this was merely an empty shell. Apart from possessing a life force and heartbeat, it was nearly like a dead person.

Under the illumination of the golden light, the Kylin Demon Bone floated toward Fang Lin’s chest. It then transformed into a Kylin Phantom and directly entered Fang Lin’s body.

Meanwhile, the True Dragon Demon Bone also reacted, seemingly attracted to Fang Lin’s fleshly body, wanting to enter.

However, at that moment, a force of rejection emerged from within Fang Lin’s body, preventing the True Dragon Demon Bone from entering at that moment.
