Chapter 506: Lin Fan Becomes the Cultivation Technique

“What exactly are the ‘Poison Canon’ and the ‘Ancient Sage Realm Secrets’? Considering how weak the Poison King turned out to be, the ‘Poison Canon’ probably isn’t anything great either,” Lin Fan muttered, eyeing the two ancient scrolls glowing faintly, without much hope.

“Ding! Would you like to learn the ‘Poison Canon’?”

“Learn it.”

In an instant, an immense torrent of knowledge surged into Lin Fan’s mind, transforming into countless unheard-of and unimaginable venomous creatures—some as tiny as dust, others as massive as mountains.

Various poisons, toxic beings, poisonous pills, and techniques flooded his consciousness. Lin Fan was astonished—this ‘Poison Canon’ was, in fact, an unparalleled scripture of toxins, encompassing every conceivable poison under heaven and earth.

What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the Poison King had risen from a weak, bullied nobody in the Poisonous Realm to become a dominant overlord solely by cultivating the ‘Poison Canon’.

Within the ‘Poison Canon’ lay a secret cultivation method—one capable of transforming any poison into a cultivation technique.

Initially, Lin Fan had no interest in the ‘Poison Canon’ because the Poison King, after cultivating it, had become an abomination, neither man nor ghost, an utter disgrace.

But when he thought of “Da Fange,” Lin Fan suddenly realized that this cultivation method might actually be useful.

As for the other toxic techniques described in the ‘Poison Canon,’ Lin Fan had no intention of practicing them. Cultivating the ‘Poison Canon’ required enduring countless venomous insects biting into the body, absorbing their toxins, and then using the technique to refine them.

No matter how one looked at it, over time, this would lead to a dangerous accumulation of toxins within the body.

The Poison King’s grotesque appearance was likely the result of cultivating too many venomous creatures, which had eventually backfired.

“A harmful technique for sure, but this complementary cultivation method is actually quite promising,” Lin Fan mused carefully.

If he could transform “Da Fange” into a cultivation method, then in future battles, clouds of Da Fange essence would fill the skies—no one would stand a chance against him.

The thought alone was terrifying.

But according to this logic, he would have to consume massive amounts of Da Fange. What if Da Fange was too potent and he failed to refine it? Then he’d be utterly ruined.

This was a serious issue that required careful consideration.

Then, Lin Fan picked up the ‘Ancient Sage Realm Secrets’ and began reading. He found it quite impressive—it recorded many aspects of the Ancient Sage Realm, broadening his horizons.

It contained information about various sects, secret realms, ancient clans, mystical beasts, and countless other races.

He read rapidly, memorizing everything.

After absorbing all the content, Lin Fan understood much more about the Ancient Sage Realm—it wasn’t as simple as he had once thought.

“Phew…” Lin Fan exhaled deeply, now fully aware.

Previously, he had been a complete novice in the Ancient Sage Realm, knowing nothing. But after reading the ‘Ancient Sage Realm Secrets,’ he had transformed from an ignorant beginner into a seasoned expert.

In the future, when faced with any situation, he would immediately understand what was truly going on.

Lin Fan then channeled the “Earth Spirit River” into the ground beneath him. With a wave of his hand, razor-sharp currents spiraled upward, carving away the surrounding soil and forming a massive underground cavern.

He wanted to test the cultivation method from the ‘Poison Canon.’ Regardless of the risks, the chance to transform “Da Fange” into a cultivation technique was too valuable to ignore.

With a flick of his wrist, countless “Da Fange” pills were scattered throughout the underground chamber.

Lin Fan took a deep breath, a sense of unease creeping into his heart.

Soon, he would detonate all of these “Da Fange” pills, inhale their essence, and use the cultivation method to refine them.

If he failed, he already knew the consequences would be catastrophic.

Just one “Da Fange” could cloud one’s senses and induce madness. Now, with so many concentrated in one place, failure would mean absolute disaster.

He might even tear through the very fabric of the Ancient Sage Realm itself.

Therefore, Lin Fan was taking a tremendous risk.

But as the saying goes, how could one know success without trying?

According to the ‘Poison Canon,’ success was entirely possible. Normally, he wouldn’t be so worried, but the sheer potency of “Da Fange” was the real concern.

“Ah, what the hell—might as well give it a shot. If this turns out to be a lie, then this world really has no compassion at all,” Lin Fan muttered to himself.

Boom!

Countless “Da Fange” pills exploded, releasing thick clouds of essence that filled the underground chamber.

“Absorb!”

With a single breath, Lin Fan inhaled all the essence into his body, his face instantly turning bright red.

Without hesitation, he immediately began cultivating according to the method described in the ‘Poison Canon’.

The wild, dense mass of “Da Fange” essence was instantly wrapped in a force and began to compress.

The medicinal power of “Da Fange” was extremely fierce. Under compression, it writhed violently, as if trying to break free. But Lin Fan would never allow that—if it did, disaster would surely follow.

At this moment, Lin Fan exerted every ounce of his strength, combining the profound technique from the ‘Poison Canon’ to suppress and compress the essence relentlessly.

Time passed—no one knew how long.

“Ding! Congratulations, cultivation successful.”

At that moment, Lin Fan opened his eyes, radiant with energy, gazing at a tiny seed floating within his body.

He knew—he had successfully refined “Da Fange” into a true cultivation seed.

From this day forward, “Da Fange” had undergone a complete transformation, ascending to an exalted path.

“Hahahaha!” Lin Fan burst into laughter, a joy far greater than acquiring any treasure.

With a wave of his hand, a cloud of essence drifted outward, seemingly possessing its own consciousness, swirling around Lin Fan before he opened his mouth and inhaled it back in.

“Finally, Da Fange has been refined into a true cultivation technique by little me! In the future, with a mere wave of my hand, Da Fange essence will fill the heavens and earth—no one will be able to rival me!” Lin Fan shouted excitedly, already imagining his glorious future.

Even those with higher cultivation bases—what could they do? Could they really resist the power of “Da Fange”?

As for the other divine pill, Lin Fan thought for a moment and decided against it. That pill would make anyone who cultivated it into a fool.

After all, he was destined to become a supreme figure across the cosmos—how could he stoop to cultivating such a low-grade technique?

Boom!

Lin Fan shot up from underground, brimming with confidence, flying toward the horizon. In the future, all ancient clans of the Ancient Sage Realm would bow before his might.

“Huh? What’s going on ahead? Why are there so many powerful auras?” Lin Fan’s excitement had not yet faded when a distant scene startled him.

A large group was gathered ahead, their auras surging into the heavens, shaking the skies.

“What are these people? Aren’t they afraid of being discovered by the ancient clans?” Lin Fan thought, puzzled.

Still, for safety, he concealed himself and slowly approached the scene.
