Chapter 805
Chapter 805: 805
“Seventh sister, let’s go. What’s past is past. This city no longer exists, and you have been liberated from it.”
“We have always been waiting for you, waiting for you to leave with us.”
“The seven of us have finally reunited.”
…
As the six figures spoke, the zither-playing woman looked upon the disappearing, crumbling Red Crown Pill City, then turned to the silent Fang Lin, understanding something in that moment.
“So, it’s like this. Because I saw you for the first time, the Red Crown Pill City came to be. Now that you have appeared again, it also signifies that everything should come to an end,” the zither-playing woman said, becoming calm.
“Indeed, you should be liberated,” Fang Lin said.
The zither-playing woman nodded, a long-lost smile emerging on her face as her body also began to radiate light.
Like her, the other six figures also emitted light, like seven hot flames.
“Pill Sovereign Fang, we are going to reunite now. Although this city has perished, we have left behind the Qi Qiao Linglong Pills that we seven once crafted together. If you need them, you may take them,” the zither-playing woman said.
Fang Lin nodded, also smiling, “I wish you seven a joyful reunion.”
“Take care.” The seven figures suddenly vanished, and the seven stone pillars beneath them also shattered loudly.
The ancient city had completely vanished. The past glories of Red Crown Pill City, with the departure of the zither-playing woman, with the collapse of the last stone pillar, were ultimately no more.
Fang Lin looked around at the surrounding yellow sand and the remains that bore witness to the once existence of Red Crown Pill City, feeling a complex mix of emotions.
Pill Saint Palace, has it too ceased to exist? Has it completely perished, just like Red Crown Pill City?
Centering his mind, Fang Lin landed on the ground where, after the collapse of the seventh pillar, an exquisite jade box was revealed.
Even with the jade box sealed, there was still a radiance shining forth.
Fang Lin picked up the jade box and upon opening it, found inside, indeed, the Qi Qiao Linglong Pills mentioned by the zither-playing woman.
Seeing the Pills, Fang Lin showed a look of joy. He had also once crafted Qi Qiao Linglong Pills, which allowed the consumer to immediately clear the congenital seven apertures. These Pills offered considerable help in the realms of Spirit Vein, Spirit Bone, and the subsequent stages of cultivation.
The Qi Qiao Linglong Pill in Fang Lin’s hand appeared to be a seventh-grade pill, but seemed to have lost some of its potency over time, causing its quality to fall to the sixth grade.
Although it was somewhat regrettable, for Fang Lin at present, even if the Qi Qiao Linglong Pill had fallen to the fifth grade, it still held great use.
Fang Lin placed the Qi Qiao Linglong Pill into his Nine Palace Bag, preparing to leave, but then a thought struck him, and he directly dove into the sand below.
Shortly after, Fang Lin reemerged, with an additional object in hand.
It was a zither, carved from dragon sandalwood, but its strings were all broken, rendering it unplayable.
This zither was precisely what the zither-playing woman had used in life, but now with its strings broken, it was effectively ruined.
Fang Lin inwardly lamented; had the zither been intact, it would have been a treasure, but now with the strings broken, its value was significantly diminished.
“Although the strings are broken, there is a way to mend them. As long as I find the right materials, I can repair it,” Fang Lin said, still placing the broken-string zither into his bag.
Fang Lin left the place and headed straight outside the city, where he saw Huang Yao, Mu Fanzi, Duan Hongyan, and the others still unconscious.
The sound of the zither had profoundly affected them, and without three to five days of rest, they feared they would not awaken.
Fang Lin saw this and a sly smile appeared on his face.
Fang Lin walked over to the descendants of the hall masters, one by one, taking their Nine Palace Bags from their waists and hanging them on his own.
Finally, when it was Mu Fanzi’s turn, just as Fang Lin was about to make his move, a large swarm of black bugs flew out of Mu Fanzi’s Nine Palace Bag, and densely attacked Fang Lin.
Moreover, Mu Fanzi’s eyes suddenly opened, filled with murderous intent, and a poisonous smoke emerged, evidently intending to poison everyone present.
“So you’ve been awake all this time!” Fang Lin sneered, his figure retreating to evade the dense swarm of black bugs.
“Hmph!” Mu Fanzi snorted coldly, and amid the spreading poisonous smoke, he enveloped everyone else within it.
Seeing this, Fang Lin had no choice but to grab Huang Yao and drag him out of the range of the poisonous smoke.
But by this time, the black bugs had already attacked, and Fang Lin slapped the Nine Palace Bag to once again bring out The Ancient Lamp of Flame God.
“Watch me burn these bugs to a crisp!” Fang Lin shouted, dropping a drop of his vital blood into the ancient lamp.
Boom!
The flames surged, instantly burning away more than half of the black bugs, releasing a foul stench, and even in death, the bugs emitted a strange poison mist.
Upon seeing this, Fang Lin immediately swallowed a Detoxification Pill and, with the Nine Heavens Step Skill, appeared right beside Mu Fanzi.
Mu Fanzi was shocked but reacted quickly, thrusting out a black longsword straight at Fang Lin’s throat.
The sword strike was incredibly fast, and an ordinary person would likely find it difficult to dodge.
But Fang Lin twisted his body and narrowly avoided the sword, immediately following up with a fierce punch to Mu Fanzi’s shoulder.
With that blow, Mu Fanzi’s shoulder bone cracked on the spot, and the black longsword slipped from his hand, powerless.
Startled and enraged, Mu Fanzi hadn’t anticipated Fang Lin’s strength to be so formidable, a single punch breaking his shoulder bone.
However, Mu Fanzi was also quite formidable; he immediately pulled back while releasing a Toad Poison Beast.
The Toad Poison Beast was extremely ugly, over half a person tall, and upon appearing, it spewed a large glob of poison at Fang Lin.
Fang Lin dared not be careless, for this poison was obviously potent; even with his strong physique, he might not withstand it.
The Toad Poison Beast pounced and leaped, constantly launching fierce attacks at Fang Lin. Some of the poison landed on a few of the hall master descendants, causing their bodies to start rotting immediately.
Several beams of light shone, and the life talismans of those hall master descendants activated, transporting them out of the Ancient Alchemy Prohibited Area.
“A mere toad dares to be rampant in front of me?” Fang Lin grew impatient, slapping the Nine Palace Bag, as a blood-colored longsword roared out.
The toad, terrified, croaked frantically, attempting to flee.
But it was quickly caught up by the blood-colored longsword, and with sword qi slashing down, the head of the Toad Poison Beast was severed.
Poison and blood sprayed out, and ordinary weapons would likely corrode from the poison, but the blood-colored longsword remained unaffected.
However, the blood-colored longsword did not absorb the blood of the toad this time, as if it found the blood of the toad too disgusting to ingest.
Just as Fang Lin was about to pursue Mu Fanzi, a sense of crisis suddenly emerged. He spun around, only to see a dark shadow had already appeared before him, a glinting dagger thrusting straight at his face.
