Demonic Ancestor Wuyu gazed at Lin Fan with anticipation. What the hell was this kid anyway?
“Do you feel anything?” the Ancestor asked, almost ready to spit blood if this failed again.
Lin Fan blinked, glancing left and right. “Senior, I still don’t feel anything. Maybe we should just give up,” he said with a helpless shrug.
“No way! This ancestor will ensure you master the Buddha sect’s ultimate supernatural ability,” Wuyu roared furiously. He had already wasted so much essence-blood, and it had been completely ineffective. How could that be acceptable?
At this moment, Wuyu was like a gambler who had already lost so much. If he didn’t succeed now, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
“But Senior, maybe the pills are just ineffective. Could they be expired?” Lin Fan asked suspiciously, though inwardly he was laughing.
This guy is such an idiot. Indeed, one should never be imprisoned, especially not for tens of thousands of years. His mind must have deteriorated.
Wuyu, suppressed beneath the endless depths of the earth, refused to believe it. He directly infused ten drops of his essence-blood at once.
This was the magical energy he had slowly accumulated over the years. Originally, he had planned to use it when the time was right to break his seal. However, he later discovered that this seal was extraordinary. Without being at his peak, there was no way he could break it.
So how long would it take to return to his prime under the current circumstances?
A hundred thousand years?
A million years?
He couldn’t wait that long, so he had to take a shortcut—searching for an extraordinary vessel and abandoning his own Wuyu Demon Body.
Now, the best vessel had appeared before him. How could he possibly give it up?
A super pill floated out from within the mountain of seals.
It was even more potent than the previous pills.
He’s gone too far!
This guy really wants to risk his life!
Lin Fan was stunned.
“Senior, please be careful! I know you’re a kind-hearted expert, but there’s really no need to go to such lengths for me. I’m so moved I’m about to cry, and I don’t even know what to say anymore,” Lin Fan said sincerely. He truly felt like crying. He had never met someone so generous before.
Yet in his heart, he felt that everyone on the Infinite Continent was so loving.
“It’s fine. Quickly take this pill. It should work this time,” Wuyu said, his voice weak. He had lost too much essence-blood, and his very foundation was greatly weakened. If this still didn’t work, he would truly collapse.
As the Demonic Ancestor Wuyu, one of the top ancient figures of the Infinite Continent, he had been unfortunately sealed away by the future Boundless King Buddha. Now, he was resorting to such means to escape. It was truly humiliating.
But as long as he could escape, it would all be worth it.
“Thank you, Senior!” Lin Fan couldn’t wait any longer.
This pill was much larger than the previous ones, with a more vivid color. It was clearly a rare treasure, unlike anything else.
He swallowed the pill.
Crunchy!
It tasted just as good, though it lacked something extra.
“Ding! Congratulations, experience increased by 500 million.”
Lin Fan’s eyes flew open, revealing an expression of disbelief.
Five hundred million…
It was actually five hundred million. The Demonic Ancestor must have truly gone all out.
Seeing Lin Fan’s expression, the Demonic Ancestor, sealed beneath the mountain, felt a sudden surge of joy and excitement.
“Did it work?”
The Ancestor was thrilled, but to his astonishment, he still couldn’t establish any connection with the kid. Had it failed again?
“Senior, it still didn’t work,” Lin Fan said again, his expression once more filled with sorrow.
But at this moment, the increase of 500 million experience, combined with his previous total, was enough to meet the requirements for an upgrade.
“Ding! Cultivation level upgraded.”
“Cultivation Level: Early Golden Immortal Realm.”
“Ding! Reached Golden Immortal Realm, condensed Golden Immortal Laws.”
Lin Fan noticed a tremendous change within himself—far greater than when he had entered the Xuan Immortal Realm.
Especially within his mind, a vast force surged into his consciousness, forming an endless golden ocean.
This was…
The Golden Immortal Sea.
Within this Golden Immortal Sea, one dragon of magical power after another surged forth. These were all Golden Immortal forces, condensed into an ocean, vastly different from the Xuan Immortal Realm.
The Desireless Demon Ancestor looked at Lin Fan with anticipation, wondering what kind of creature this kid really was.
“Any sensations yet?” the Demon Ancestor asked. If this didn’t work, he was really going to lose it.
Lin Fan blinked, glancing around. “Senior, still nothing. Maybe we should just call it quits.”
“No way! I must make you master this supreme Buddhist technique!” the Desireless Demon Ancestor nearly roared. He had wasted so much of his essence blood, and it had all been for nothing. This couldn’t be happening.
The Desireless Demon Ancestor was like a gambler who had already lost so much. If he didn’t succeed now, all his previous efforts would have been in vain.
“But Senior, this pill isn’t working. Maybe it’s expired?” Lin Fan said with a doubtful expression, though inwardly he was laughing his head off.
What an idiot! This guy really shouldn’t have been sealed away, especially not for hundreds of thousands of years. His brain must have stopped functioning.
The Desireless Demon Ancestor, sealed deep beneath the earth, refused to believe it. He directly infused ten drops of his essence blood into Lin Fan.
This was the power he had slowly accumulated over the years, originally meant to break the seal when the time was right. But he had discovered that the seal was extraordinary, and unless he was at his peak, he couldn’t break it.
How long would it take to return to his peak under these circumstances? A million years? Ten million? He couldn’t wait that long. He had to take a shortcut and find a vessel to abandon his Desireless Demon Body.
And now, the perfect vessel was right before his eyes. How could he let it go?
A super pill floated out from the sealed mountain, even more potent than the previous ones.
This was getting serious! This guy was going all out!
Lin Fan was stunned.
“Senior, please take it easy. I know you’re a kind-hearted and generous person, but there’s no need to go to such lengths for me. I’m so moved I could cry. I don’t even know what to say.” Lin Fan was genuinely on the verge of tears. It was the first time he had encountered someone who treated him so well.
But deep down, he felt that the people of this endless continent were full of love.
“No worries. Quickly take this pill. It should work this time.” The Desireless Demon Ancestor was growing weaker. He had lost too much essence blood, and his core energy was severely depleted. If this didn’t work, he would truly collapse.
As the Desireless Demon Ancestor, one of the top ancient figures of the endless continent, he had been suppressed by the Future Infinite Buddha. Now, he was resorting to such methods to escape. It was truly humiliating.
But as long as he could get out, it would all be worth it.
“Thank you, Senior.” Lin Fan eagerly took the pill.
This pill was much larger than the previous ones, and its color was more vibrant. It was clearly something extraordinary.
As the pill entered his mouth, it crunched with a crisp sound.
The taste was still fragrant, though it lacked something else.
“Ding! Congratulations, experience increased by 500 million.”
Lin Fan’s eyes shot open in disbelief.
500 million… It was actually 500 million. The Demon Ancestor was really going all out.
Seeing Lin Fan’s expression, the Demon Ancestor, sealed beneath the mountain, felt a surge of joy and excitement.
“Did it work?” the Demon Ancestor asked eagerly.
But to his astonishment, he still felt no connection with Lin Fan. Had it failed again?
“Senior, it didn’t work.” Lin Fan once again wore a tearful expression.
But at that moment, the 500 million experience, combined with his previous experience, was enough for him to level up.
“Ding! Cultivation level increased.”
“Cultivation: Early-stage Golden Immortal.”
“Ding! Entering Golden Immortal Realm, condensing Golden Immortal Laws.”
Lin Fan felt a tremendous change in his body, even greater than when he had entered the Mystic Immortal Realm.
Especially in his mind, it was as if a vast ocean of golden light had formed, with countless dragons of power surging within it.
This was… the Golden Immortal Sea.
In this sea, one after another, dragons of power rose and churned. These were the powers of the Golden Immortal, condensed into a vast ocean, a world apart from the Mystic Immortal Realm.
The rough Golden Immortal Laws wrapped around him, embodying the essence and symbol of the Golden Immortal, radiating its majesty.
“This is amazing! Truly amazing! I never thought the Golden Immortal Realm would feel this good. It feels like I could punch through heaven and earth with a single blow.”
Lin Fan looked up at the sky, his fighting spirit soaring.
For others, advancing in cultivation was an arduous task, but with his system, everything was possible.
Coming to this place was definitely worth it.
Though it was a bit of a pity. The Demon Ancestor’s essence blood alone had made him so powerful. If he could kill the Demon Ancestor, wouldn’t he ascend to the heavens?
“Huh?”
The Desireless Demon Ancestor suddenly realized something.
“How could you possibly advance in cultivation at this moment?” the Desireless Demon Ancestor demanded, dumbfounded.
“Senior, I don’t know either. My strength just naturally increased. What’s going on? That pill didn’t work, and I feel so sad.” Lin Fan complained. If the Desireless Demon Ancestor’s IQ were any lower, he might have actually believed it.
But all of this was just Lin Fan overthinking things.
The Desireless Demon Ancestor’s IQ wasn’t that high, but it wasn’t so low as to be laughable.
Silence.
The world fell into silence.
The Desireless Demon Ancestor had realized the truth. How could his essence blood be useless? Even ancient powerhouses couldn’t resist it.
Yet this insignificant ant before him had not only resisted it but had even converted his essence blood into power to advance his cultivation.
“Bastard!”
A furious roar erupted, shaking the heavens.
The overwhelming demonic aura spread across the land, causing the earth to tremble as if it were cowering in fear.
So, he had been discovered. But Lin Fan still had a bit of shamelessness left.
“Senior, what’s wrong? Why are you so angry all of a sudden?” Lin Fan asked, feigning surprise.
“Senior my foot! You little ant, you’ve been using me from the start!” the Desireless Demon Ancestor bellowed.
Lin Fan sighed softly, then muttered to himself, “Ah, since you’ve seen through it, there’s no point in hiding anymore.”
“Let me tell you the truth. I saw through your little tricks from the start. Sure, you’ve lived longer than me, but I’ve been navigating through every step of your schemes. You, a little demon, trying to trick me? Isn’t that like trying to show off your sword skills in front of Guan Gong? You’re just embarrassing yourself.” Lin Fan smiled faintly, brushing off his sleeves.
“But I really have to thank you. Without your essence blood, I wouldn’t have been able to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm.”
Lin Fan’s expression was calm, exuding an air of quiet confidence.
The Desireless Demon Ancestor, sealed beneath the mountain, roared in fury. It felt as if a mouthful of old blood was stuck in his chest, unable to be released.
He never thought he would be tricked by an ant.
And tricked so badly, at that. Not only had his essence blood been used to boost the other’s power, but he had also been thoroughly mocked. Beast! Not human!
Lin Fan smiled faintly. “Ah, sometimes being too talented is a curse. There are always villains trying to trick me, but am I someone you can trick, Lin Fan?”
“Amazing! Truly amazing! I never imagined the Golden Immortal would feel so exhilarating. I feel like I could punch through heaven and earth with a single blow.”
Lin Fan gazed at the sky, his fighting spirit soaring.
For others, advancing in cultivation was extremely difficult, but with his system, everything was no longer an issue.
Coming to this cursed place was definitely worth it.
But it was a bit of a pity. If the Demonic Ancestor’s essence-blood alone could make him so powerful, what would happen if he killed the Ancestor? He would surely soar into the heavens.
“Hey!”
Wuyu noticed something was off.
“How could you possibly advance your cultivation at a time like this?” Wuyu asked in shock and disbelief.
“Senior, I don’t know either. I just naturally advanced. Can you believe it? That pill still didn’t work. I feel so sad,” Lin Fan whined. If the Demonic Ancestor’s intelligence were just a bit lower, he might actually believe him.
But Lin Fan had overestimated himself.
Although Wuyu’s intelligence wasn’t particularly high, it wasn’t that low either.
Silence.
A heavy silence filled the heavens and earth.
Wuyu realized the problem. How could his essence-blood possibly be ineffective? Even ancient experts couldn’t resist it.
Yet this insignificant figure before him had not only resisted it but also transformed it into magical power to enhance his cultivation.
“Damn brat!”
A furious roar echoed into the sky.
An overwhelming demonic might surged, shaking the earth as if it trembled beneath his wrath.
He was discovered, but Lin Fan still had a bit of shamelessness left.
“Senior, what’s wrong? Why are you suddenly so angry?” Lin Fan asked in feigned surprise.
“Senior, my foot! You’ve been using this ancestor from the very beginning!” Wuyu roared.
Lin Fan sighed softly, then muttered to himself, “Sigh, since you’ve seen through me, there’s no point in hiding anymore.”
“I’ll tell you the truth. I’ve seen through your little tricks long ago. Although you’ve lived longer than me, every step I’ve taken has been within my strategy. You think you can outwit me? Isn’t that like showing off your swordsmanship in front of Guan Yu—inviting shame upon yourself?” Lin Fan said calmly with a smile, brushing off his clothes.
“But I really must thank you. Without your essence-blood, I wouldn’t have broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm.”
Lin Fan’s expression was calm, exuding an air of quiet confidence.
Trapped beneath the mountain of seals, Wuyu roared furiously, as if a torrent of blood was trapped in his chest, unable to erupt.
He never imagined he would be deceived by an insignificant worm.
And deceived so thoroughly—his essence-blood had enhanced the other’s strength, and he had been mocked mercilessly. What a beast, what a monster.
Lin Fan smiled calmly. “Sigh, sometimes it’s not easy being so gifted. There are always troublemakers trying to scheme against me. But am I someone like you who can be so easily tricked?”
