The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 525: Daring to Confront Heavenly Origin

“Gongsun Xiao, are you seriously considering fighting me over this Fang Lin?” Gongsun Long asked exaggeratedly.

With a grim expression, Gongsun Xiao clenched his fists, yearning to punch Gongsun Long right in the face.

Fang Lin, unconcerned, looked at Gongsun Long and said calmly, “I’ve seen plenty of people like you. It’s no surprise that every family and sect has a few rotten apples.”

Gongsun Long’s face hardened at these words.

“You’re a mere ant from the Lower Three Kingdoms! Seeking death!” Fuming, Gongsun Long attacked Fang Lin directly without any fears.

Gongsun Long’s hand swooped down, aiming to crush Fang Lin’s shoulder.

Just as Gongsun Xiao lunged forward to stop him, Fang Lin stepped ahead, shielding Gongsun Xiao and stopping him from intervening.

Gongsun Xiao was taken aback, but then he remembered how Fang Lin had previously defeated Qin Tianchuan and calmed down.

Unfazed by Gongsun Long’s portrayal of fierce aggression, Fang Lin caught and held his right hand as it approached.

Gongsun Long froze. His wrist was tightly held by Fang Lin, struggling the way he may, he was unable to free himself.

“Humph!” Gongsun Long snorted coldly, attempting to strike at Fang Lin’s chest with his other hand fueled with formidable Inner Strength.

Without casting a glance, Fang Lin kicked out, landing the blow on Gongsun Long’s abdomen, causing him to almost kneel on the ground. His face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yet, his right hand was still in the grip of Fang Lin.

Fang Lin was merciless; holding onto Gongsun Long’s wrist, he hoisted him up.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

…

The onlookers stared in shock. What was happening?

A reputed genius of the Gongsun Family was being flung around like a ragdoll. It felt like a dream.

Gongsun Long himself was dazed. How could Fang Lin be so strong? Even though he was a genius from the Gongsun Family, his strength wasn’t inferior at all. Then why was this happening?

Gongsun Xiao was dumbfounded. He knew Fang Lin was strong, having witnessed his prowess at the Prince’s Mansion.

But to his surprise, in such a short time, Fang Lin had grown even more formidable. His physical strength was comparable to that of a Demon Beast.

As fellow prodigies of the Gongsun Family, Gongsun Xiao was well aware of Gongsun Long’s strengths, which were by no means inferior to his own.

But facing Fang Lin, Gongsun Long was like a three-year-old child against a grown man. He was utterly weak and had no power to counterattack.

After being thrown around a dozen times, Gongsun Long felt dizzy. His nose and mouth were bleeding, and he was on the verge of passing out.

“Stop!”

“Presumptuous!”

“Brazen Rogue!”

…

At that moment, several voices of reprimand rang out. Six middle-aged men charged out from the inner courtyard, their faces filled with rage. They attacked Fang Lin without any warning.

The sight of these six men struck fear into Gongsun Long’s heart. These six men were all from his lineage, appearing to suppress Fang Lin after he was being disadvantaged.

These six men radiated an exceptional aura, clearly Heavenly Origin masters. If they attacked, would Fang Lin have any chance of survival?

“Stop! He’s a guest invited by Master Wu!” Gongsun Xiao immediately yelled, attempting to shield Fang Lin.

However, the six men paid no mind; one of them simply waved his hand, sending Gongsun Xiao flying with a shockwave.

Fang Lin’s eyes were cold. He tossed Gongsun Long, who was like a dead dog in his hand, aside, and his aura surged.

“Bring it on!”

With no fear in his heart, Fang Lin was instead filled with the desire to confront these six Heavenly Origin masters.

“Seeking death!” Seeing Fang Lin’s undisguised courage, the six men grew angrier. It seemed he did not take them, the Heavenly Origin masters, seriously.

All six did not strike at once against a single Earth Element martial artist. If their combined attack news got out, it would be ridiculous.

One of the middle-aged men with a stern face made his move. His hand reached out towards Fang Lin with a dreadful aura, intending to smash Fang Lin into pieces.

Gongsun Xiao’s eyes nearly popped out. After this hand strike, could Fang Lin still retain his life? He had invited Fang Lin, who was now caught up in this calamity, which made Gongsun Xiao feel extremely guilty and anxious.

Facing the Mighty Heavenly Origin warrior’s strike, Fang Lin’s eyelid twitched slightly, then let out a roar and stimulated the power of his Immortal Bloodline.

Breaking Peak Heritage! The power of Counterattack!

Boom!

His corresponding strike, in contrast, seemed fragile, appearing incapable of contending with a Heavenly Origin martial artist.

The middle-aged man sneered. To him, Fang Lin’s action seemed utmost foolish. How could an ordinary Earth Element compete against a Heavenly Origin warrior? Wasn’t he seeking his own death?

However, in the next moment, his face changed drastically as an unfathomable force surged from Fang Lin’s strike.

Boom!

“How is this possible?” The middle-aged man was shocked, and he was sent flying backward, his face alternately pale.

Fang Lin stood undeterred, his face impassive as if he had done something insignificant.

The middle-aged man retreated several steps before steadying himself, his eyes filled with shock.

The other five men also changed their expressions. Could Fang Lin actually compete against a Heavenly Origin martial artist?

The clansmen of the Gongsun Family also stared in dumbfounded shock, their eyes casting upon Fang Lin as if he were a monster.

Gongsun Xiao was the most shocked. He sensed that Fang Lin was vastly stronger than when he had seen him at the Prince’s Mansion. However, he had not expected Fang Lin to overpower a Heavenly Origin martial artist and even gain the upper hand.

An Earth Element martial artist suppressing a Heavenly Origin martial artist? Was such a thing even possible?

“How audacious, Gongsun Family! I was invited as a guest, and is this how I’m treated?” Fang Lin sneered, undeterred in the face of several Heavenly Origin masters.

“In our Gongsun Family’s domain, a little mutt like you is not allowed to run rampant!” declared another middle-aged man, launching a powerful punch towards Fang Lin.

This punch, packed with tremendous force, would have instantly killed any Earth Element martial artist.

A cold glint passed in Fang Lin’s eyes, “I dare say, the one acting rampant is you!”

Upon that, Fang Lin released his Physical Strength without restraint, simultaneously activating the power of the Immortal Bloodline and the Purple Mist Sky Sutra.

A punch lashed out, colliding violently with the middle-aged man.

Crack!

The man’s arm oddly twisted into an unnatural shape, causing his face to pale. He screamed in pain and stepped back, holding his arm.
