Novel Full Chapter 162 - The More One Knows, The Faster They Die
Chapter 162: The More One Knows, The Faster They Die
The Dark Fiend Sea was a danger zone among danger zones. It was stretched over millions and millions of miles and seemed extremely calm. The black sea water along with the reflection of the sky painted a very eerie scene.
At this moment, a golden glow was illuminating a part of this very dark sea. What’s more, someone seemed to be chanting scriptures in this golden glow. One after another, mysterious texts floated in the air and merged with the world slowly. In the rear of this golden glow was a phantom of a ginormous, sacred, white human figure with a pair of wings that was radiating a holy aura.
Nine golden dragon-shaped monsters were streaking through the air, fanning their wings. These nine golden dragon-shaped monsters happened to be biting a golden chain in their giant mouths, dragging a resplendent carriage. This carriage was pure white in color and had various sacred texts carved on it. It was radiating a strange light as if it was covered in a divine halo.
More importantly, these nine dragon-type golden monsters were in Earth Star Border Stage Seven or Stage Eight. Their bloodline was very high-level, quite obviously. Some of them were even royal beasts. But the scary part was that they were being used to drag a carriage.
“Sir Religious Brother, if we bring Li Ruochen back to the sect from our trip to the Magnificent Flame Sect, we will have done a meritorious deed,” said an old man with a hunched back. He looked as if he had one foot in his grave, but his skinny and old body seemed to be carrying terrifying strength.
“Who would have thought that someone with the Sacred Maiden Constitution would be found in a backward and ignorant sect like the Magnificent Flame Sect? Did you check what I asked you to? Has anyone among Liu Ruochen’s ancestors come to the Saint Convent Sect?” The speaker was quite handsome. Flashes of lightning flickered in between his blonde hair as if there was a world of lightning in every strand of his hair.
“I have checked it but haven’t found anyone yet. But since she has the Sacred Maiden Constitution, someone among her ancestors must have a connection with the Saint Convent Sect.” The old man lowered his eyebrows. When his gaze fell on the religious brother’s blonde hair, his eyes flickered with a bright gleam. It was proof of the Sacred Lightning Skillset being cultivated to a certain level.
“It seems they hid it pretty deep. It’s a kind of blasphemy for a person with the Sacred Maiden Constitution to live in such a backward sect. However, this beautiful jade is buried in a layer of dust and still has not been found. I have already discussed with the elders to make Li Ruochen my dual cultivation partner. As long we trigger her Sacred Maiden Constitution, I will be able to break through the barrier of the Earth Star Border Realm and become a Heaven Star expert. At that time, I will be able to roam freely and do anything I want. I will become the strongest religious brother in the sect in a single bound.” The religious brother burst into laughter, but his face beamed with a crazed look. It was completely opposite to his previous calm expression.
The old man prostrated on the ground in excitement; he was completely excited because of this.
There was a total of 1,999 religious brothers in the Saint Convent Sect, and the religious brother before him was ranked near 1,800. If this religious brother could dual-cultivate with someone with a Sacred Maiden Constitution, not only would be become a Heaven Star expert but he would advance by leaps and bounds. It would not be difficult for him to become one of the top-level religious brothers in the sect.
Roar!
Suddenly, the calm black sea started bulging and the sea near it retreated as if something terrifying was about to emerge.
The nine dragon-type golden monsters roared, staring at the bulging water with a fierce look in their eyes.
“Filthy beast.” A look of disdain immediately appeared on the cold face of the religious brother as he sensed everything happening outside.
“Divine Might!”
Suddenly, the originally calm world erupted with a fearsome pressure. In the blink of an eye, a whirlpool with bolts of lightning flashing inside it appeared in the sky.
Right then, the bulging water burst as a several-dozen-feet-long sea monster appeared, roaring. Its countless tentacles slapped the sea, raising a tsunami constantly.
Boom!
Suddenly, a several-feet-thick bolt of lightning struck straight down on the sea monster. When the bolts of lightning finally dissipated, only charred pieces of flesh and blood could be found floating in the sea.
The old man became excited at the sight of this. “Sir, your Sacred Lightning Skillset has advanced further. It has already reached the point where the world starts shaking with one word.”
The religious brother, on the other hand, didn’t even have a hint of pride on his face. “I’m still lacking a lot. I might shake heaven and earth with one word, but if I break through to the Heaven Star Border Realm, it will be even more powerful.
“Get going! There are many creatures in this black sea that even I can’t provoke.”
“Yes, Sir.”
…
In the dangerous lands of the Door of a Thousand Caves…
Lin Fan stood proudly on a huge black boulder, staring into the distance. The cold wind blowing on his face could not bring any change in his expression.
“Frog, start refining pills. Refine anything you can refine.” Lin Fan threw the frog on the ground as he was getting ready to earn some points. At the same time, he was in serious need of experience points as well. Unknowingly, only three million experience points were left from the experience points he had obtained from the Abyssal Worm. He was really lacking them. These three million weren’t enough to raise his cultivation.
“Master, I don’t…” The frog roared angrily in its heart, You are about to die, what are you going to do with so many pills!? Wouldn’t it be a waste of all my savings? But when it saw Lin Fan rush straight into the horde of monsters, it didn’t dare to complete its sentence.
“If you haven’t refined something good before I return, I will stew you for sure.”
The frog immediately lashed out, “How can you threaten the only frog that has lived tens of thousands of years!?”
Its heart was already gripped by a chill. However, it let go of everything after giving it a thought. If I endure this, everything will return to peace. I should be as boundless as the heavens and the seas. This guy has already broken his oath. He will be struck by lightning once he leaves the Thousand Deep Cave, I will then regain my freedom.
“Forget it, who made me so kindhearted? You won’t live for long, I will let you enjoy it in your last moments.”
The frog opened its mouth as the Alchemy Cauldron of Fire and Wood flew out spinning from its mouth along with the billowing Cyan Abyssal Flames that transformed into fire dragons. The frog was very distressed while using every bit of the resources it had gathered. This was what he had gathered over the tens of thousands of years it had lived here, and it wasn’t easy to gather them.
It wasn’t easy to gather these treasures with the weak body of a frog. It was simply as difficult as reaching the sky.
However, when the thought of Lin Fan stewing it if it didn’t refine a good pill crossed its mind, it immediately started working.
I can’t die here, I still haven’t seen my wife.
Starling Dragon Palm!
Violent Mace!
Lin Fan immediately unleashed a series of combos. Encountering Lin Fan was no different than reaching the end of their roads to these monsters. More importantly, now that his cultivation had taken a leap, he could flatten them with just one palm.
Every swing of his mace shook heaven and earth as the subsequent shockwaves blew these monsters into pieces.
“So cruel! He is really cruel!” As the frog looked into the distance while refining pills, its heart started pounding in fear. It really hadn’t expected Lin Fan to be so cruel. His every move was extremely gruesome, bringing a rain of blood everywhere.
It’s completely just for the heavens to take him. After all, he would only bring destruction to the world if left alone.
It recalled the battles it fought when it used to be human. Even its battles caused destruction and splattered blood, but it was nowhere near as gruesome as this.
Points +6,000!
The ground was littered with pieces of flesh and pools of blood; not a single creature could be found anywhere in sight. Meanwhile, Lin Fan returned contentedly.
“Is it refined?” Lin Fan arrived before the frog and grabbed it in his hand rudely.
The frog immediately shouted, “It’s done! Master, I’m your monster pet, can’t you be a little gentle and loving? You don’t need to grab me so painfully every time.”
Lin Fan completely ignored the frog’s pleas and grabbed the pill straight away. “What kind of pill is this?”
This frog has a wide range of knowledge and knows a lot of things. More importantly, it knows alchemy. It really cannot be underestimated. I guess it used to be a pretty good alchemist when it was human.
As a pet, it’s very good. The only downside is that it’s a bit weak, but that doesn’t matter anymore. It will be able to get out of here when it breaks through to the Heaven Star Border Realm. At that time, I can train it as I wish.
“This is a low-grade Earth-class pill, Tri-Layer Ice and Fire Pill. After taking it, ice will solidify while the fire will smelt. It can strengthen its user’s internal organs and temper their bones. It can increase its user’s capacity, allowing them to lay a bigger and stronger foundation. I have used all my wealth to refine it. Although I can’t refine it to nine layers, it’s still an incredible pill.
“Even some upper-grade Earth-class pill can’t compare with this pill I refined.”
The frog raised its green head triumphantly. It was quite knowledgeable in the path of alchemy. Just a casual pill refined by it could shake the world. If it had the complete set of raw materials, it could refine a divine pill even if it had to vomit blood to refine it.
Lin Fan nodded. “Mm, I guess you are still a bit useful, at least a lot more useful than a dish.”
The frog immediately rebuked, “Even if I’m your pet, you can’t insult me like this. I am far more useful. Back then, people came to me to refine-”
But before it could finish the sentence, it was thrown to one side by Lin Fan.
“Shut the hell up.” Then he took out the Fire Essence Pill to see how far he could expand his capacity with these two pills.
The frog was extremely shocked when it felt the intense heat blowing on its face. “Master, how come you have a Fire Essence Pill!?”
It immediately piqued Lin Fan’s curiosity. “What’s wrong? It’s just a low-grade Earth-class pill. How can it shock an alchemy frog like you?”
“How is this possible!?” The frog shook its head, but it couldn’t hide the shock in its eyes from Lin Fan.
“This Fire Essence Pill is far from ordinary. Although it’s just a low-grade Earth-class pill, its raw materials can’t be found in this world.”
Lin Fan was taken aback as if he had heard some big news. “Are you not from this world?”
The frog hadn’t expected to let its tongue slip again. It then raised its head. “That’s right! I learned from the humans who came in before you that this world is not the same world I used to live in. And it’s greatly inferior to the one I came from, far more inferior.
“Back then-”
Pata!
Lin Fan grabbed the frog in his hand. “You are a pet now, and you should behave like one. You don’t need to talk nonsense every time you open your mouth. Tell me about this pill now.”
How could his vision be comparable to the natives of this world!? He had seen many fantasy movies in his previous life. He naturally knew that there was always a higher mountain, but now his cultivation was too weak, so he couldn’t pay attention to these distant things.
Furthermore, he also knew that, the more one knew, the faster they die.
It seems this frog knew a lot of things, that’s why it ended up like this. The saying is definitely true.
The frog struggled, crying in its heart. It’s really a sin to be this guy’s pet. But fortunately, it will be over soon.
“Although this Fire Essence Pill is a low-grade Earth-class pill, one of its raw materials is extremely rare, and that’s the Heavenly Earth Core Fire. Where I come from, only the proud sons and daughters of a sect with a long heritage are eligible to take a Fire Essence Pill and break their own limit. One must be extremely lucky to have an opportunity to get this kind of pill,” the frog spoke unceasingly.
“What nonsense! Nothing you just said was important.” Lin Fan directly threw the frog away. He hadn’t expected to draw such a fantastical thing from the lottery.
The frog flipped and landed perfectly on the ground. Looking at Lin Fan, it could only heave a helpless sigh. Didn’t you ask me to speak? And now you’re saying it’s all nonsense? A monster pet really doesn’t have any dignity.
Lin Fan, on the other hand, swallowed the Tri-Layer Ice and Fire Pill to see how effective this pill was.
