The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron C.393 - : Millennium Fire Ganoderma Lucidum

Chapter 393: Chapter 393: Millennium Fire Ganoderma Lucidum

On the second floor, there were even more herbs than on the first floor, and the ones present were much more exotic and precious. Fang Lin’s eyes glowed with desire, wishing he could take all of them with him.

The elderly man in white watched him like a hawk, wary of Fang Lin’s extreme greediness.

Even though the white-clothed elder deeply trusted in the array of the Immortal Medicine Pavilion and believed it could not be destroyed, Fang Lin’s unconventional behavior gave him a foreboding feeling.

Fang Lin walked around the second floor and finally rested his gaze on a fiery, mushroom-like herb, sealed inside a piece of jade.

A Fire Ganoderma Lucidum!

Fang Lin silently marveled. The Immortal Medicine Pavilion didn’t disappoint, boasting even such a rare herb within its collection. Judging by the vitality and quality of this Fire Ganoderma Lucidum, it was at least a thousand years old.

Any herb that lived for a thousand years was essentially priceless. Even a seemingly insignificant herb like foxtail would become a millennial-aged ancient medicinal herb if it managed to survive for a thousand years.

This Fire Ganoderma Lucidum was a rare herb, a variant of the Ganoderma Lucidum family and typically found only in ten-thousand-year-old volcanic regions.

The Fire Ganoderma Lucidum possessed an enormous fiery aura. An ordinary person would be burnt to ashes just by touching it.

If the Fire Ganoderma Lucidum were thrown into a large river, it would instantly evaporate all the water.

Of course, the value of this herb was immense and sought after by both martial artists and Pill Refiners.

At this moment, Fang Lin had his eyes set on this Fire Ganoderama Lucidum. He was convinced he must get his hands on it, no matter what.

The elderly man in white chuckled coldly and said, “Young lad, this Fire Ganoderma Lucidum isn’t easy to obtain. It has gained some spirit and will try to escape at all costs once the jade is unsealed.”

Fang Lin already knew this, without needing the white-clothed elder to remind him. He was aware that the thousand-year-old Fire Ganoderma Lucidum surely had developed intelligence. It would instinctively try to survive and escape from being captured.

“It won’t escape,” scoffed Fang Lin, placing his hand on the jade.

As per the rules, Fang Lin could select three herbs. As long as he kept his hand on the jade for ten breaths, the array would unseal the jade, allowing Fang Lin to take the herb it held.

Ten breaths later, the jade emitted a soft glow and swiftly melted like ice thawing, transforming into a puddle of liquid.

Simultaneously, the thousand-year-old Fire Ganoderma Lucidum sealed within the jade started to stir anxiously. It seemed to sense its impending freedom, which made it extremely excited and impatient.

Fang Lin could clearly feel the surrounding temperature rising slightly. Despite being sealed for so many years, the Millennium Fire Ganoderma Lucidum still retained its intense fire properties.

As the jade gradually dissolved, Fang Lin knew it was time. The Fire Ganoderma Lucidum could break out of the jade and flee any moment now. Without hesitation, he stepped forcefully, and the three types of Soul Commanding Pill Flames inside him surged forth.

Boom!

The three types of flame transformed into three giant hands, sealing off all possible escape routes of the Fire Ganoderma Lucidum.

Once the jade had melted enough, the Fire Ganoderma Lucidum suddenly sprang into action, broke through the jade with its burning aura and tried to escape.

In the next moment, the three giant flame hands closed in on the Fire Ganoderma Lucidum. Terrified, the herb lost all sense of direction.

The elderly man in white was dumbstruck on the side, especially when he saw Fang Lin’s body containing three different kinds of Soul Commanding Pill Flames. His eyes widened in disbelief.

“This kid is truly a monster!” the white-clothed elder muttered to himself. A youngster barely in his twenties, with just a foundational cultivation level, had absorbed three different kinds of Soul Commanding Pill Flames. This was simply terrifying!

Was he trying to get himself killed?

Fang Lin used the Soul Commanding Pill Flames to catch the Fire Ganoderma Lucidum because it was the consummate counter to this herb. As soon as the Fire Ganoderma Lucidum came into contact with the Soul Commanding Pill Flames, its fiery aura would be destroyed by the flames, resulting in severe consequences.

The adage ‘every creature has its nemesis’ was perfectly illustrated here. Although the Fire Ganoderma Lucidum was cherished by fire, its nemesis was none other than the Soul Commanding Pill Flame.

Under the coercion of the three flame hands, the Fire Ganoderma Lucidum had nowhere to run. Fang Lin swiftly grabbed it, ignoring the pain as if his hand was burning, and put it in a jade box.

The Fire Ganoderma Lucidum had to be stored in a jade box, or its intense, terrifying aura would burn everything else in the Nine Palace Bag.

Of course, the jade box was not an ordinary one either. There was an array carved inside which could completely suppress the Fire Ganoderma Lucidum’s aura.

This jade box was given to him by Elder Su, who seemed to have predicted that Fang Lin would have a significant harvest in the Pill Pole Tower; hence he provided several such boxes designed for storing unique medicinal herbs.

After storing the jade box in the Nine Palace Bag, Fang Lin looked content, but in his heart, he was far from satisfied. With plenty of herbs around, why would he stop at taking just one Fire Ganoderma Lucidum?

“Kid, how come you have three types of Soul Commanding Pill Flames?” At this moment, the white-clothed elder couldn’t help asking. He burst with curiosity.

In a casual manner, Fang Lin replied, “I naturally absorbed them. Did you think they voluntarily entered my body or something?”

The white-clothed elder was speechless. His perception of Fang Lin completely changed.

A youth who had absorbed three types of Soul Commanding Pill Flames, possessed a frighteningly high talent, and carried a terrifying Demon Sword, must indeed have an unimaginable background. His future, as long as he didn’t die, would also be unpredictable.

On the second floor, Fang Lin found another great herb – a Thousand-Year Polygonum Multiflorum!

The value of Polygonum Multiflorum was comparable to, if not more than, ginseng in a certain aspect.

Polygonum Multiflorum grew at a very slow pace, but with each passing year, its medicinal properties greatly improved.

A thousand-year Polygonum Multiflorum naturally had terrifying medicinal properties. It was said that a martial artist once consumed a three-hundred-year-old Polygonum Multiflorum and experienced a surging increase in his Inner Strength, breaking through two realms in succession.

If one were to consume this thousand-year Polygonum Multiflorum, it was unimaginable how far one’s realm could be boosted.

Of course, directly consuming Polygonum Multiflorum was deemed wasteful. Turning it into a medicinal concoction would maximize its value.

Moreover, a thousand-year Polygonum Multiflorum had such powerful medicinal properties that only a true powerhouse with a robust constitution could consume it directly. If not, they would detonate due to the herb’s overwhelming potency.

The white-clothed elder twitched at the corner of his mouth, witnessing Fang Lin setting his sights on the Polygonum Multiflorum. This youngster really had an eye for the most valuable herbs in the Immortal Medicine Pavilion.

“Kid, you better not covet this Polygonum Multiflorum. You won’t be able to take it,” the white-clothed elder said.
