Chapter 151: I Have Not Failed My Mission!

The system's prompt echoed in his mind.

Lin Feng's mouth curled; he knew he hadn't misjudged Lin Yan.

This kid really swallowed the Holy Fire.

And the bell ringing in the Medicine Hall clearly warned everyone that the foundation of the Medicine Hall had been taken away.

"Master, what is going on?" Jiuyang didn't know the current situation.

But the Medicine Hall hadn't had such short and urgent bell sounds for a long time; this often meant that a major change had occurred in the sect.

It might even threaten the foundation!

Dao Yan's expression was as gloomy as water, and he looked at the cauldron in front of him in disbelief.

"Could it be..."

At the same time, the lid of the cauldron flew up, and Lin Yan, covered in flames, appeared before the crowd.

"One hour, it's up!" Lin Yan said with a laugh.

His eyes were filled with thick firelight, and the aura on his body became even richer.

Then, a sky full of spirit energy flew toward him.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Yan actually broke through to the Martial Pill Realm First Layer.

"Brother Lin Yan broke through!"

Lin Ya and Lin Xuan were pleasantly surprised; they didn't expect that participating in the Medicine Hall's Three Absolutes of Apprenticeship could yield such benefits.

If they had known, they would have gone up themselves.

"He... he actually didn't die?"

"How is this possible? The first stage of the Three Absolutes of Apprenticeship requires accepting the test of the Holy Fire. No one can survive under the roasting of the Holy Fire!!"

"Now, I fear there is..."

The onlookers in the courtyard discussed one after another, their gazes toward Lin Yan full of envy and jealousy.

Dao Yan and Jiuyang revealed gloomy expressions; such a dangerous first stage had actually been broken.

"Clan Leader, I have not failed my mission!"

Lin Yan laughed, and then he looked at Dao Yan: "Old fellow, I have completed the first stage, what is the second stage!"

Jiuyang was furious and was about to take action: "You little bastard, is my master someone you can insult?"

After saying that, Jiuyang had already drawn his spirit sword.

Although he was an alchemist of the Medicine Hall, his martial arts cultivation was not weak, already at the Martial Pill Realm Third Layer.

With such strength, he was likely a leader among his peers.

"What are you doing?" Lin Ya drew his iron sword with a "clang."

Sword intent boiled, and he was ready to strike.

Lin Feng also cast a cold look and said contemptuously: "The Medicine Hall is nothing more than this. Is going back on your word your character?"

"You let people barge through the three stages just now, and you're already breaking down after only the first stage?"

Hearing this, the surrounding onlookers sneered; the Medicine Hall was truly petty. People passed the stage, and now they were turning their faces and refusing to recognize them?

"Hmph! Stand down!" Dao Yan snorted coldly.

His gaze flickered with thick killing intent, but under the eyes of everyone, he couldn't turn his face.

"Since you passed the first stage, then the next is the second stage." Dao Yan said mockingly, "Boy, the second stage won't be as simple as the first."

"What does that have to do with you?" Lin Yan said unhappily.

He had already reached this step, so naturally he couldn't retreat.

"Overestimating your capabilities!" Dao Yan snorted coldly, then flicked his sleeves. The flames extinguished, and the red-hot cauldron began to cool down, returning to its earthy gray appearance.

And a faint, heavy aura was revealed within it.

"The second stage, Lift the Cauldron!"

As Dao Yan shouted, he pointed at the cauldron and said to Lin Yan: "Lift it up and hold on for three breaths, then you will have passed the stage."

"It's that simple?" Lin Yan was somewhat surprised.

"It's that simple!" Dao Yan laughed gloomily.

The Three Absolutes of Apprenticeship, one fire, two cauldrons; that lifting the cauldron could be ranked after the Holy Fire showed its importance.

If one underestimated this stage, I fear they would die directly here.

"Lin Yan, that's enough!" Master Gu Dan said hurriedly, and then looked at Dao Yan again, "According to the rules, as long as one passes any of the Three Absolutes of Apprenticeship, one can become a disciple of the Medicine Hall."

"Dao Yan, you have violated the rules."

Dao Yan curled his lips contemptuously; he naturally knew the rules, but he refused to acknowledge them at this moment.

"New rules, you must pass all three stages, what can you do about it?" Dao Yan said shamelessly.

"You..." Master Gu Dan didn't have Dao Yan's thick skin and was choked for a moment, unable to find words to refute.

Lin Yan looked at Lin Feng and asked: "Clan Leader, can I participate in the second stage?"

Now Lin Yan was interested in the Three Absolutes of Apprenticeship; today he must make everyone in the Medicine Hall bow down.

"If your heart is set on it, then break through the thorns."

"No matter what, the family is behind you. Whatever you want to do, I will support you." Lin Feng said slowly.

Hearing this, Lin Yan became excited immediately.

The feeling of having someone cover for you was great.

"I want to continue to the second stage!" Lin Yan said loudly immediately.

Master Gu Dan was shocked beyond words when he heard this.

This kid was knowing there were tigers in the mountain, yet he was heading toward the tiger mountain!

The next two stages might not be easily solved.

"Good, if you want to die, I will not stop you!"

Dao Yan laughed and clapped his hands, signaling Lin Yan to start lifting the cauldron.

That great cauldron was refined from thousands of fluorites in a volcano, and its weight had reached 500,000 jin.

Just lifting it required at least the cultivation of the Enlightenment Realm.

But even the Enlightenment Realm could not truly lift it; this cauldron could only accept the power of fire, and only fire could make it lighter.

If other powers were used, the cauldron would only become heavier and heavier.

This meant that this cauldron could only be lifted by alchemists, and only alchemists who had mastered Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire could lift it.

Even Dao Yan and Master Gu Dan could not lift it high.

But now they were letting Lin Yan try; it was simply a fantasy.

Then, Lin Yan walked to the cauldron; under the massive cauldron, there were only three legs, each as thick as three people could embrace.

But under each leg, there was a handle, clearly for people to hold.

At this moment, Lin Yan gathered his strength, pressed on the handle, and lifted upward with all his might.

But the cauldron did not move at all.

"Hahaha! Wishful thinking, a mere Martial Pill Realm wants to lift this cauldron? Even ten of you might not succeed." Jiuyang laughed wildly.

Lin Yan's face turned red, and even with all his strength, he couldn't lift it at all.

But Lin Feng saw the clue from the side and sent a secret voice transmission: "You can't lift it with brute force, try the Burning Heaven Immortal Wrath."

Hearing this, Lin Yan didn't doubt it.

He saw the power of the Burning Heaven Immortal Wrath appear on his arms, and strands of flames spread from his arms to the cauldron.

In just a moment, the cauldron was burned red.

"Rise!"

Lin Yan roared, his arms exerted force, and suddenly, the cauldron was slowly lifted.

"No! This is impossible!" ===== CHAPTER 152 =====
