The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron-Chapter 419 - : Bow and Arrow

Chapter 419: Chapter 419: Bow and Arrow

Within the murky depths of the forest, Fang Lin held onto the Thousand-year Corpse Ginseng in one hand and sprinted furiously, his face intense.

Gu Hanshan and a woman in a green dress were in relentless pursuit, especially Gu Hanshan. His flesh and blood chains that grew from his back assaulted Fang Lin again and again, leaving behind a few bloody wounds on the latter.

“Kid, I’m afraid this time this old man will die with you in this damned place. How tragic! I’m still so young. I don’t want to die!” the Thousand-year Corpse Ginseng wailed, its noise agitating Fang Lin.

“Shut up!” Fang Lin yelled, and the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng instantly went silent.

Fang Lin glanced back, clenched his teeth, and gained even more speed, as if a strong wind was gusting around him.

Gu Hanshan and the woman in green were both taken aback that Fang Lin could further increase his speed.

“Come chase me! I’ll poison you to death!” Fang Lin took out various bottles and jars as he ran, scattering their contents behind him.

Noticing something wrong, the woman in green halted instantly, but Gu Hanshan charged fearlessly into the poisonous smoke Fang Lin had released.

Fang Lin turned back to look at Gu Hanshan charging through his poisonous smoke effortlessly, and he was surprised. Even though Gu Hanshan had transformed into half-man, half-demon, he shouldn’t be so abnormally strong.

Unbeknownst to Fang Lin, Gu Hanshan had ingested a rare item that could neutralize most poisons in preparation for his encounter with Fang Lin. Hence, Fang Lin’s poisonous smoke had no effect on him.

“Fang Lin, you can’t escape!” Gu Hanshan roared angrily, releasing a black spinning disc from his Nine Palace Bag that emitted an eerie glow as it flew towards Fang Lin.

Fang Lin clenched his teeth, turning to land a punch that sent the spinning disc flying away. But Fang also suffered from the disc’s attack, which was so powerful that he felt as though several of his ribs were shattered.

Nevertheless, Fang Lin had no time to worry about his injuries. At this moment, staying alive was of utmost importance.

As the black disc once again came hurtling towards him, Fang Lin, his eyes filled with fierceness, hurled out the Boundless Stone.

Bang!!!!!

The Boundless Stone’s power was staggering; the black disc ended up smashed to pieces.

Gu Hanshan’s eyes narrowed; he’d known about the formidable stone in Fang Lin’s possession and had been on guard for it. Seeing Fang Lin use it now made his heart pound with caution.

The Boundless Stone, successful in its attack, returned to Fang Lin’s hand. Immediately, Fang Lin hurled it again, this time aiming it at Gu Hanshan.

Gu Hanshan, who had been on guard for this move, evaded the attack.

Beholding this, Fang Lin sighed inwardly. Despite its potency, the Boundless Stone was a straightforward weapon. Those who were alert and agile could dodge it easily.

If it couldn’t hit its target, the Boundless Stone’s power was practically useless.

This was the stone’s drawback, of which Fang Lin was well aware. Hence, he didn’t usually resort to the Boundless Stone unless he was executing an unsuspected attack.

Gu Hanshan was an old adversary of Fang Lin’s. He was well aware of the Boundless Stone’s power. Thus, hoping to kill Gu Hanshan with the Boundless Stone was simply unrealistic.

After all, his opponents weren’t stupid and wouldn’t just stand there and let him aim at them.

Retrieving the Boundless Stone, Fang Lin once again summoned something from his Nine Palace Bag: a grand bow with golden birds etched in as decorations. The bowstrings were made from the tendons of demon beasts.

This bow, a treasure from Zhao Shenkong’s Nine Palace Bag, was a treasure of the royal family of Yun Country, and now it was in Fang Lin’s possession.

Also inside the bag was a quiver full of arrows. Each of the eighteen arrows was mingled with Sky Crystal Stone, their tips extremely sharp and robust. Each arrow had an array carved onto it, which enhanced their power.

At that moment, Fang Lin readied his bow and arrow. His fingers pulled back the string as taut as a full moon before suddenly shooting an arrow.

Gu Hanshan’s eyes narrowed. He promptly dodged, but the arrow changed its trajectory and followed him like a shooting star chasing the moon.

Huffing coldly, Gu Hanshan too showed no fear. With his left arm balled up into a fist and surrounded by demon Qi, he struck the incoming arrow.

Thump!

The next instant, there was a bloody hole in Gu Hanshan’s fist, his stark white bones visible through it.

Gu Hanshan was shocked. This arrow could actually break through his demon beast body and injure his bones.

“So he still has such a treasure!” Gu Hanshan cursed angrily in his mind, his killing intent for Fang Lin intensifying. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

Seeing the arrow’s effect, Fang Lin was overjoyed and inwardly praised the treasure from Yun Country’s royal family for the striking power it possessed.

Given Gu Hanshan was still in pursuit, Fang Lin nocked another arrow and fired the second shot.

Swoosh!

The arrow turned into an eerie light that shot toward Gu Hanshan. This time, Gu Hanshan didn’t dare to parry. Instead, the several flesh-and-blood chains on his back flew out, attempting to entangle the arrow.

Unexpectedly, the power of the arrow was astonishing, it broke several of Gu Hanshan’s flesh-and-blood chains. It was eventually barely stopped by Gu Hanshan.

During this brief interval, Fang Lin managed to widen the distance from Gu Hanshan considerably, almost disappearing from view.

“Damn it!” Gu Hanshan’s eyes were filled with gloom, but he didn’t express any regret.

Seeing that he had shaken off Gu Hanshan from behind, Fang Lin finally let out a sigh of relief, increasing his speed to escape continually.

“I wonder how Elder Su is doing now,” Fang Lin worried about Elder Su. After all, the latter was one against three, and his opponents were three Heavenly Origin level assassins from the Hidden Kill Hall. There was the risk of a lethal outcome.

But at this moment, Fang Lin could barely protect himself, let alone Elder Su.

A while later, when Fang Lin turned back to look, Gu Hanshan and the woman in green had been left far behind. It seemed as if they had given up on their pursuit.

However, Fang Lin felt a heavy sense of unease. He had felt several times before that there was someone following him.

Although it was just a vague intuition, Fang Lin highly trusted his instinct, and this time was no exception.

“Kid, are we safe now?” the Thousand-year Corpse Ginseng asked, its lewd eyes shifting around apprehensively.

Fang Lin frowned without slowing down and said, “Until we escape this forest, we’re not safe.”

The Thousand-year Corpse Ginseng showed a disgruntled expression, retorting: “I had such rotten luck to have attached myself to you. And you still owe me ten ancient medicinal herbs. When are you going to give them to me?”

Almost losing his temper, Fang Lin thought, We’re in a crisis, and this fellow is still thinking about the ancient herbs.

And weren’t there only three herbs initially? How did it become ten?

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Fang Lin, hurling a punch at him without warning.
