Chapter 1519: Chapter 1617: The First Person Below the Martial Lord
The words of the Fla Emperor made Fang Lin suddenly tense up.
Could it be that he resembles soone? Who? Could it be that the Fla Emperor has recognized him as the forr Pill Sovereign Fang Lin?
The Fla Emperor stared at Fang Lin for a good while before finally saying, “You bear a striking resemblance to a woman.”
“What?” Fang Lin was baffled upon hearing this; he was an honest man through and through, how could he look like a woman?
The Fla Emperor, seemingly oblivious to Fang Lin’s peculiar expression, continued, “You really do, especially your eyes; they’re exactly the sa. If I didn’t know it was impossible, I might even suspect you’re that woman’s offspring.”
At this, Fang Lin suddenly understood; could the woman the Fla Emperor was referring to be his mother, Bai Qingxue?
It was quite possible, since Fang Lin also knew his appearance was mostly inherited from his mother, particularly his eyes, which were identical to Bai Qingxue’s.
“Young man, what is your na?” the Fla Emperor asked.
“This junior’s na is Fang Lin.”
Upon hearing this, the Fla Emperor’s expression turned even quirkier, “Fang Lin? What a coincidence? That woman’s son was also nad Fang Lin.”
With that, the Fla Emperor couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Fang Lin, who, however, remained utterly perplexed as if he knew nothing at all.
“It seems I was overthinking it. People die like flas extinguished; that Fang Lin has long perished and no longer exists in this world. Perhaps you are his reincarnation, or maybe there is so mysterious destiny that makes you bear such a resemblance,” the Fla Emperor sighed.
Fang Lin, with a face brimming with curiosity, asked, “Senior, whom might you be speaking of?”
The Fla Emperor chuckled and replied, “That other Fang Lin you speak of? He was an extraordinary figure, the unprecedented first among the Alchemy Tao, achieving the rank of Pill Sovereign—a far mightier existence compared to .”
Fang Lin feigned surprise, “Even mightier than the Fla Emperor?”
“Indeed, he was the Pill Sovereign after all, the only one to achieve that position in his era. Moreover, he cultivated for rely thirty years, an absolute anomaly amongst anomalies,” explained the Fla Emperor.
Now Fang Lin was displeased. Who was being called an anomaly? How dare the Fla Emperor call soone an anomaly, when he himself could erge from the Ancient Lamp of Fla God after so long?
“Speaking of which, that Fang Lin—the Pill Sovereign Fang—that guy’s parents were no less remarkable. One was the mighty Martial Lord, unmatched in the world, and the other was the strongest beneath the Martial Lord. An entire family of anomalies, indeed,” continued the Fla Emperor.
This ti, Fang Lin’s expression sowhat stiffened. The Fla Emperor had actually described the entire family of Fang Lins as anomalies, which left Fang Lin sowhat speechless.
However, Fang Lin was quite curious, why did his mother Bai Qingxue earn the reputation of being the strongest beneath the Martial Lord from the Fla Emperor?
Fang Lin rembered very clearly that, before his demise, although mother Bai Qingxue was powerful, she shouldn’t have been recognized to such a degree. If one were to talk about the strongest beneath the Martial Lord, the Fla Emperor himself would fit the bill, given his renowned might back in the day, such that even the Old Dried Corpse would genuinely praise him upon ntioning the Fla Emperor.
“According to this junior’s knowledge, Senior Fla Emperor should be the strongest beneath the Martial Lord,” Fang Lin frowned as he spoke.
The Fla Emperor, upon hearing this, laughed at himself, “Not at all, I cannot defeat that Bai Qingxue.”
“Soone even Senior Fla Emperor can’t defeat?” Fang Lin showed a look of surprise, feeling the sa astonishnt within. It seed his mother was even more powerful than he had imagined, to the point of outmatching soone like the Fla Emperor.
“I don’t have much ti, talking about these things is of no use. Given that you could find my eight lamps, your fate must be exceptional. You better make good use of these lamps. If you dare tarnish my reputation, be careful, or I might pop out of a lamp and co after you one day,” the Fla Emperor said with a nonchalant air.
Fang Lin, wearing an embarrassed expression, replied, “The junior will certainly not disgrace the treasure of Senior Fla Emperor.”
“Also, you say you are the Inheritor of the Supre Shrine? You should be cautious about that; Mo Shouhe is not as simple as he seems, and that so-called Supre Shrine may be a trap,” the Fla Emperor warned with a serious tone.
Fang Lin gave a nod, taking the words seriously.
In fact, Fang Lin had begun to suspect the Supre Shrine as well.
Mo Shouhe, a Martial Lord and one of the old guards, had achieved the rank even before Fang Qingye.
But why had he established a Supre Saint Hall to select an inheritor? Was he truly only seeking to pass down his mantle to an exceptional Disciple?
Others might find nothing amiss, but having stepped into the realm of Pill Sovereign and being the first of the Alchemy Tao, Fang Lin knew he would not take any Disciples, as there was simply no need to.
The sa logic applied to Martial Lords. As far as Fang Lin knew, his father Fang Qingye did not take any Disciples; nor did Martial Lord Hou Yi pass on any legacy.
Yet, Mo Shouhe insisted on selecting Disciples at great lengths? Moreover, the supposed Supre Divine Treasure remained unfound to this day.
Considering the Supre Saint Hall was established by Mo Shouhe during ancient tis, it seed unreasonable that it still stood after so many years, with the Supre Divine Treasure yet to be discovered.
With so many years passed, could there really have been no one of extraordinary strength who managed to find all twelve legacies?
Perhaps, there is no such thing as a Supre Divine Treasure at all?
Or, as the Fla Emperor suggested, could the Supre Divine Treasure indeed be a trap, causing geniuses of the Martial Arts to fight each other in every era, only for the strongest to enter the Supre Divine Treasure and then repeat the cycle?
“There’s one more thing I need to tell you. There must still be a Martial Lord alive in this era; otherwise, the great calamity of old would have already descended. The reason your people are still alive is that soone is silently bearing everything. I do not know who that is, but rember this—even before the true disaster strikes, no one can escape it. Your presence here, eting , may an that you have a role to play in this era; do not forget my words today. Even if you one day surpass in strength, never lower your guard!” the Fla Emperor said, his seriousness a stark contrast to his initial playful deanor.
“Junior will heed your advice!” Fang Lin bowed deeply with clasped hands.
“That fellow above, I suppressed him here long ago, and I certainly won’t let him cause trouble,” said the Fla Emperor, pointing upwards.
At the entrance of the cave, the Green-haired Corpse King, who had been vigorously thrashing the Corpse Ginseng, suddenly stiffened. It roared repeatedly but could not move.
A blaze ignited from within it, the Green-haired Corpse King scread miserably as its body began to lt and disintegrate.
