Chapter 765: An Accident, Wrong Judgement!

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

“Hehe, Great Elder Ying makes sense, the selection of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain Leader should be discussed at a later date, let’s first refine this little punk!”

Sixth Elder was indeed witty. Naturally he could feel the surrounding anger, thus he chose to take a step back.

“Still need to discuss? As the saying goes, a country cannot be without a leader, a sect cannot be without a leader. If Nine Pinnacles Mountain were to allow a Sixth Elder from Yin Yang Hall to decide, then why not just let him be the leader then.” Fang Zhengzhi seemed to have not felt the anger around him, and proceeded to continue.

“This fellow is spouting nonsense!”

“What is he treating Nine Pinnacles Mountain as?”

“How disgusting!”

The disciples could not help but scold out loud.

“Fang Zhengzhi, you are really trying to provocate the relationship between Yin Yang Hall and Nine Pinnacles Mountain, stop dreaming!” Sixth Elder’s face turned blushed red, and it was obvious that he was unable to vent the anger in his heart.

“What provocating? I’m only stating the facts, isn’t it stronger if both houses come together and form an alliance? Yes, maybe Dao Xin can be the new leader?” Fang Zhengzhi continued.

“Shut up!”

“Talking about Dao Xin, there’s something that I always don’t understand, what’s her relationship with Dao Hun? Father and daughter? You guys call her Second Hallmaster, they should not be father and daughter then? Or are they siblings? Doesn’t seem like….. Is she his mistress, wait, Dao Hun is not that type of person?

“Little punk, you’re looking for death!” Sixth Elder could no longer contain his anger, and he leapt onto the volcanic rock, before choking Fang Zhengzhi’s throat with one hand.

“Sixth Elder please calm down, if you were to kill him now, we cannot retrieve the herbal effects from his bloodstream. Furthermore, the difference between an alive and a dead person when refining herbs is very huge!” Great Elder Ying Yu shook his head in frustration, as he was angry too, but he understood that they cannot kill him now.

“Don’t worry Great Elder Ying, I will not cross the line, I was just angry for a moment.” Sixth Elder’s body quivered a little, before releasing his grip on Fang Zhengzhi’s throat.

“Dao Xin and Dao Hun really don’t have something going on?” A smile flashed across Fang Zhengzhi’s face after his throat was released from the grip.

“Little punk, you die!” Sixth Elder did not wait for Fang Zhengzhi to continue speaking, and he raised him in the air, before throwing him into the middle three legged black cauldron.

Middle Stream Cauldron, the centre of the nine cauldrons!

It was manufactured from the black metals, and it had a long history of having being passed down from generations after generations.

The interior of the cauldron was huge, and its carvings were detailed.

“Dong!” A sound could be heard.

Fang Zhengzhi entered the cauldron, causing the disciples to feel bewildered. Subsequently, they erupted into cheers.

“Finally thrown in!”

“See how this punk can continue to cause trouble!”

“Too infuriating!”

The Nine Pinnacles Mountain disciples were discussing among themselves.

But Great Elder Ying Yu’s expression did not seem too pleased, as he had initially thought of setting up a grand ceremony, before finally putting Fang Zhengzhi in the Middle Stream Cauldron.

However, since Sixth Elder had already begun, naturally there was nothing else for him to say.

Afterall, it was just a minor procedural issue. Whether they should throw him in at the beginning or at the end did not matter too much, but from this action, he could tell that Sixth Elder did not view himself as a stranger. He might even harbour thoughts of becoming the leader himself.

Great Elder Ying Yu did not question Sixth Elder, because it was not the time to squabble with Yin Yang hall. Furthermore, the latter had just given him a clear signal.

To support him to take on the role as the leader of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain!

“Okay, now the alchemy ceremony will officially begin!” Great Elder Ying Yu gestured his hand, and nine disciples rushed up the volcanic rock immediately.

A gigantic lid covered the Middle Stream Cauldron.

After being throw into the cauldron, Fang Zhengzhi’s head collided with the bottom of the cauldron. It was needless to say that it was painful, but obviously, this was not the most important point. More importantly, after being thrown into the Middle Stream Cauldron, he was covered by a gigantic lid.

His entire world was only left with darkness.

“Crap….. I’m really going to be grilled?” Fang Zhengzhi retracted his smile. The reason for him provoking Sixth Elder, was purely to pick on the relationship between Yin Yang Hall and Nine Pinnacles Mountain.

Afterall, he was not so naive to believe that his nonsensical words were enough to incite violence between the two houses, and that he would have the opportunity to escape.

He did that because…..

He was hoping that he would be able to enter the cauldron with his clothes on.

Or so to say, he needed Sixth Elder to be furious, to the point where he wanted him dead. That way, he would then have the opportunity to bring “The Vast World” along with him into the Middle Stream Cauldron.

And it seemed like his plan had worked.

However, there was a little miscalculation. The Vast World was brought in with him, but the chains that wrapped around his body were not unshackled.

The process of alchemy does not require to unshackle the chains?

What logic!

Fang Zhengzhi felt a little speechless, as a new problem had presented itself.

How could he escape with his body tied up?

Just when he was thinking about this problem, he felt heat emitting from the bottom of the cauldron, and it was slowly increasing in temperature.

Of course, this was incomplete. Some herbal plants were being thrown in from the top of the lid, including a basin of “Rootless Water”.

“Are they cooking vegetables?” Fang Zhengzhi finally experienced what is was like for a human to be refined into a herb, it was just like being steamed alive.

However, it was impossible for such heat to kill him.

Afterall…..

Fang Zhengzhi’s capabilities were not low.

It was impossible for an average fire to kill him.

However, he felt a little stuffy, and such a feeling became increasingly stronger.

“Even though this punk is only in the Rebirth State, but he is not weak at all, and is on par with a person in the Sage State. Such an average fire would be unable to kill him, Sixth Elder please help us increase the intensity!” Great Elder Ying Yu’s voice could be heard from outside the cauldron.

“Ok, no problems, since our Hallmaster requested for me personally, I must oblige. But, Great Elder Ying you need not be humble, I heard you possess the skill ‘Devouring Flames’. Not sure if I can borrow the skills of Great Elder Ying?” Sixth Elder’s voice could be heard too.

“Okay!” Great Elder Ying Yu did not hold back and he nodded his head. Afterall, he did not wish for any problems to occur.

Fang Zhengzhi could feel certain changes within the flame.

The previous flame seemed to be of red in colour, but the current flame seemed to have traces of silver, and the silvers were slowly devouring the reds.

Momentarily…..

The flame completely turned silver!

“AH!” Fang Zhengzhi’s cries could be heard coming from within the Middle Stream Cauldron, as the intensity of the silver flame was completely different from that of the red flame.

It was not solely because of the increasing temperature, but it felt as though the flame was turning his internal bones into ashes.

“Great Elder Ying’s ‘Devouring Flames’ technique is indeed effective, it seems like this punk can no longer tolerate it. I will give him the ‘Purple Thunder Flame’!” Sixth Elder’s voice could be heard once again.

Then, another purple flame appeared within the silver flame, and amidst the purple flame, there were traces of thunder flashing within.

Fang Zhengzhi felt like asking about Ying Yu’s and Sixth Elder’s mothers, but in the end he decided to refrain himself from doing so.

The black chains were obviously beyond normal, under the two different types of flames, they did not have any signs of melting.

Fang Zhengzhi did not quite understand the materials and quality of the black chains, but he knew that using his current strength, he was unable to free himself from them.

How?

Was he really going to burned to death?

No way!

Surely he cannot sit and wait for his death.

Of course his motive was not to ask for death, but for Yin Yang Hall to assume his death. It was only through this method that Dao Hun would release Yan Xiu.

“A drop of water can turn into an ocean, a seed can turn into an ancient tree!” Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes brightened up.

Then, he attempted to interact with the boiling flames.

“Ah….. how painful!” Fang Zhengzhi immediately felt as though his internal bones were about to turn into ashes.

Furthermore, more importantly, it could be seen that it was more intense and fiery than before.

“I can’t die, I can’t die!” Fang Zhengzhi clenched his teeth tightly, but the two flames were overly stubborn. The silver flame seemed to be burning his bones, while the purple flame seemed to be integrating into his bloodstream. His muscles started to turn black.

“Must understand!”

“I must understand them!”

Fang Zhengzhi’s entire body was completely immersed in the flames. He thought of understanding the two flames, so as to control both of them.

However, he seemed to have underestimate the two burning flames, as they were overly intense, and he could not calm his emotions down.

Wrong.

Why did this happen?

There’s something wrong.

He was able to do it previously, why wasn’t he able to do it now?

Fang Zhengzhi had not experienced such a situation before. Even when he was facing Shi Fan who was showcasing his Hell Dao, he was still able to calm his heart down.

But this time round, the pain he experienced from the flames seemed to have exceeded his tolerance threshold. It was at least ten times the extent of pain he had experienced previously under the Hell Dao, maybe even hundred times.

Circles of smoke overwhelmed his surroundings, and there was a tinge of golden atmosphere around him. The atmosphere was ever evolving, and it seemed to follow a mysterious pattern.

“It’s this cauldron!” Fang Zhengzhi finally understood why the two flames caused him to feel such excruciating pain.

When he was experiencing the Hell Dao, he was outside in the world. But now, he was located within the interiors of the Middle Stream Cauldron, and the two flames were reinforced by the golden atmosphere in the cauldron, resulting in the intensity to be increased by at least ten times.

Fang Zhengzhi understood this point…..

He finally understood why a herb of higher quality requires a better cauldron, because a better cauldron can churn out flames that are more intense in nature.

And now, his body was placed in the Middle Stream Cauldron, one of the top two cauldrons. Of course the effect would be terrifying.

“Ah! Let me go, or I will kill all of you!” Fang Zhengzhi opened his mouth, and just when he did so, the flames seemed to gush down his throat.

“Hahaha….. Kill us? How naive, really naive. To kill us, you can, but first, you must come out to do so?” Sixth Elder’s arrogant voice could be heard from outside the cauldron.

“Ah!!!” Fang Zhengzhi let out painful cries once again, as the two flames circulated around within his body.

“Scream, scream with a louder voice! Hahaha, Fang Zhengzhi, if you have another life, I advise you to be responsible, and to know your limits. Originally you have a level of ingenuity, if you had abided by the rules, would you have landed in this outcome? Also, whatever friends, or brothers, I advise you to forget about them. This things will only hinder your training!” Sixth Elder’s laughter entered the cauldron once again.

At this point, there was no longer a response from within the cauldron. There was no struggling sounds at all, only leaving the crackling sounds of the flames.

The crackling sounds of the flames were not too loud, but they were clear. The entire Middle Stream Cauldron turned completely rate, with circles of golden smokes convulating with the sophisticated carvings and symbols.
