Legend of Reborn Alchemist

Lin Cheng's face was filled with joy as he looked at the pond in front of him.    

This was a small pond. The pond was dark green, and the surface of the water was calm. It was slightly glowing.    

In the center of the pool, there was a stone covered with moss that was about a foot high above the surface of the water. On top of the stone, there was a fire ball that was half the size of a palm, and it was jumping slightly.    

Blue Fire!    

Lin Cheng recognized it with a single glance. This was the Blue Fire!    

He took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart. He stopped at the edge of the pond. Although he couldn't wait any longer, Lin Cheng knew that in this deep valley, if he wasn't careful, he would die on the spot.    

"It's different from the place in my previous life!"    

Lin Cheng thought to himself.    

In his previous life, when he entered the valley, he found that the location of the Blue Fire was on a green rock near the cliff. Now, when he saw the Blue Fire again, he found that it was actually on a rock in the middle of the pond.    

Could it be that the Blue Fire had a life of its own?    

This thought flashed across Lin Cheng's mind, and he immediately shook his head and smiled as he dispelled it.    

If the Blue Fire had a life of its own, then it would be impossible for him to obtain even a strand of it in his previous life. Although he did not know how the Blue Fire moved, the Blue Fire was still a Heaven-earth Genuine Fire after all. It was likely that it also possessed a certain degree of intelligence.    

Moreover, judging from the terrifying scale of the explosion earlier, during the contraction process, there shouldn't be anything surprising about the position of the Blue Fire.    

When he thought of this, Lin Cheng's gaze once again fell upon the small pond.    

"This pond looks calm, but I don't know if there is an unknown danger hidden underneath." Lin Cheng was secretly on guard. Besides, since the Blue Fire had landed on the rock, it was enough to prove that the rock was unusual.    

The terrifying heat of the Blue Fire alone was not something that ordinary rocks and rocks could withstand. Therefore, as a Heaven-earth Genuine Fire, the Blue Fire was called the Rootless Fire. This was because ordinary things were simply unable to withstand the grilling of the Heaven-earth Genuine Fire.    

However, this rock was safe and sound. Even the moss on it did not change, as if it was not affected by the Blue Fire at all.    

Lin Cheng decided to test it out first.    

He took a deep breath, focused his mind, and walked slowly towards the pond.    

Looking at the dark green pond, Lin Cheng held the short sword tightly in his right hand. The Yuan energy in his body circulated quickly, ready to attack at any time. He even took out the Seven-star Cloud-stepping Step with his feet.    

After making sufficient preparations, he slowly stretched out his hand and touched the pond water.    

Suddenly!    

The moment Lin Cheng's finger touched the pond water, a chill that seemed to come from hundreds of millions of years ago suddenly attacked him from the bottom of a glacier. It spread throughout his entire body from the tip of his finger.    

In the blink of an eye!    

Lin Cheng's entire body seemed to have been frozen solid from top to bottom!    

An incomparably shocked emotion rose from the bottom of Lin Cheng's heart and exploded above his head. At this moment, the Yuan energy in his body circulated crazily. The two chakras rotated crazily without caring about whether it would damage his veins or not. Violent and surging elemental energy surged wildly in his meridians.    

Hu!    

Lin Cheng barely managed to break free from the chill and fell backwards with his head raised. In the next moment, Lin Cheng rolled on the ground and quickly retreated a few steps. However, his entire body was cold and his movements became sluggish.    

He did not have time to think and immediately sat down cross-legged. He used his mind to guide the Yuan Power to quickly circulate in his physical strength to get rid of the chill.    

After more than an hour, Lin Cheng had gotten rid of all the coldness in his body. He stood up and looked at the pond in shock.    

The pool of water was still calm. It was dark green like a mirror polished from jade. It was so beautiful that it could move one's heart.    

However, Lin Cheng was sweating. At that moment... He almost thought that he was going to freeze to death. That kind of coldness... It was too terrifying. In just an instant, he felt as if his entire body had been frozen. If not for the fact that he had been prepared for this, his elemental energy would have been circulating crazily. At this moment, he had probably already become a statue!    

"This pool of water..."    

A drop of cold sweat dripped down from Lin Cheng's forehead. He looked at the dark green pond in shock. His throat moved with difficulty, "How can this pond water be so cold? The cold pond in Medicine King's valley in his previous life was already cold enough. But compared to this pond in front of me, it can't even be compared!"    

What was the origin of this cold pond?!    

Lin Cheng was surprised and bewildered, and his expression gradually became ugly.    

The Blue Fire was in the middle of this cold pond. If one wanted to come into contact with the Blue Fire, they had to cross the cold pond.    

However, this cold pond was so cold that even a First Level Chakra Stage Cultivation Level like him was almost frozen in an instant. And this was only when his fingertip touched the cold pond. If he jumped into the cold pond directly, he would definitely freeze to death on the spot!    

"If it's a Core Sea Stage cultivator, then it can easily jump over the cold pond. But..." Before Lin Cheng could finish his words, there was no more sound. He suddenly remembered that this was the Boundless Forbidden Land. The stronger the Cultivation Level was, the greater the suppression.    

"This also means that no one can jump over the cold pond!"    

Lin Cheng shook his head with a bitter smile. Even the cultivator could not do it, so how could he do it?    

Suddenly, Lin Cheng thought of something and suddenly turned his head. Not far away from him, there was a large tree that was burnt black. The crown of the tree had been burnt to ashes, but the towering tree was still there!    

"If I use these trees to make a boat, will I be able to cross the pond?" Lin Cheng thought quickly, "No, I don't need to make a boat. This pond is not big. If a towering tree falls, it will be enough to cross the entire pond!"    

Thinking of this, Lin Cheng's eyes lit up.    

He lowered his head and looked at the short sword in his hand. He thought to himself, "Girl, you are really my lucky star!"    

Lin Cheng came to the bottom of a big tree. The short sword carried a violent Yuan energy fluctuation and slashed at the root of the big tree like a long blade.    

"Clang!"    

A crisp sound rang out.    

Lin Cheng could only feel a huge force coming from the short sword, causing his hand to tremble. Looking at the root of the tree, there was only a shallow mark left!    

"So hard?"    

Lin Cheng could not help but be speechless. Although he did not use the Scorching Sun Knife in this attack, however, ever since he broke through to the Chakra Stage, the Yuan energy in his body had become much stronger than when he was at the Body-refining Stage. Even if this sword hit metal, it would be enough to cut through metal and stone!    

However, when it landed on the root of the tree, it only left a shallow mark. One should know that this was burned by the Blue Fire. If it hadn't been burned, how hard would the tree be?!    

Looking at this 30 meter tall tree that required several people to hug, Lin Cheng even began to doubt if his knowledge was too shallow.    

Originally, he had always thought that he had experienced two lives. Especially in his previous life, in order to find a way to refine the Purification Divine Pill. It could be said that he had traveled all the way to the Dongzhou, whether it was in terms of experience or experience. They were far from what those ordinary Cultivating Warrior could compare with.    

It was even to the extent that if one were to put aside their experience in cultivation, they could only talk about their horizons and knowledge. Even those large and powerful families, and even some small sects' Cultivating Warrior and some cultivator... In terms of experience, Lin Cheng was confident that he wouldn't be any worse than them.    

However, after coming here, Lin Cheng suddenly realized how ignorant he was. Whether it was the freezing pond that could freeze him in an instant or the towering tree that was harder than iron and stone, he had never heard of it before.    

"I'm afraid he's about to reach the level of the divine tree?" Lin Cheng couldn't help but sigh. He felt relieved in his heart.    

These trees were located in the core area of the explosion of the Blue Fire. Even the ground had been burnt to ashes. However, these trees were still standing. From this, one could imagine how extraordinary these trees were. This reminded Lin Cheng of the rumors about the divine tree.    

In the legends, there were some divine trees that were extremely magical. For example, there was a type of divine tree that was extremely lush and flourishing, but it contained a fire attribute that even the Heaven-earth Genuine Fire could not compare with. There was once a phoenix that built its nest on the largest and oldest divine tree.    

These trees in front of him obviously couldn't reach that level, but they were probably also a type of divine tree.    

"My luck is truly superb!"    

Lin Cheng couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. He originally planned to cut down the trees and use them to cross the cold pond. But now, he had encountered such a hard and strange tree. Judging from the effect of the sword strike just now, even if he was exhausted to death, he probably wouldn't be able to cut down the tree.    

Turning his head to look at the still sparkling cold pond, Lin Cheng's heart suddenly moved. There was not a single gust of wind in this deep valley, so how could there be light from the cold pond?    

He slightly frowned, and once again carefully came to the side of the cold pond, deep in thought.    

The cold pond seemed calm, but it was bottomless. Lin Cheng could vaguely feel that the depths of the cold pond were not very calm, "It seems that if I want to obtain the Blue Fire, I must find out what is so strange about this cold pond..."    

"Ah -"    

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly turned around. In the distance, there seemed to be a faint cry of surprise. It seemed to be very far away, but it clearly reached his ears.    

Lin Cheng immediately realized that someone had come. It was very likely that it was a student from Dongzhou College!    

"Humph!"    

With a cold snort, Lin Cheng's eyes immediately turned cold, "It's good that you're here!"    

After that, he turned around and looked at the Blue Fire in the middle of the cold pond, then turned around and left.    

In the distance.    

A group of Dongzhou College's students had shocked expressions on their faces. All of them were on full alert, as if they were facing a great enemy.    

"Seventh Elder, Senior Brother Chen... Why has he suddenly disappeared?!" A student asked in a trembling voice.    

A few breaths ago, when they had just arrived, the one leading them was a senior brother. He suddenly let out a miserable cry, and in the next moment, under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, he had disappeared without a trace.    

The other students were also incomparably shocked. Some of the students who were originally close to the missing senior brother... Their hearts were filled with utter shock. Because in that instant, they saw clearly that senior brother Chen had taken a step forward. Then, as if he had been swallowed by a giant beast, he instantly disappeared without a trace.    

And before Senior Brother Chen disappeared, many people noticed that in that instant, his body revealed a very malevolent and distorted state. That was simply not a position a human could take, just like a pile of mud.    

The people nearby were immediately horrified!
