Hearing these words from Demon Ancestor Desireless, Lin Fan was so moved he nearly cried. Then, with an exaggerated expression, he said,
“Senior, you’ve been sealed here for hundreds of thousands of years, yet instead of giving up, you still take the time to guide a junior like me. I’m truly grateful beyond words! If I truly become a mighty cultivator one day, I will definitely rescue you, and then accompany you to seek out the Future Boundless King Buddha.”
“Good! This ancestor indeed didn’t misjudge you,” Desireless replied. “This Buddhist technique is a supreme ability cultivated by the Future Boundless King Buddha himself. It ranks first among all Buddhist arts. When fully mastered, one can manifest countless Buddhas, suppressing all existence.” As he spoke, a jade slip shot out from among the mountains and landed before Lin Fan.
Lin Fan picked up the jade slip.
“Beep! Counterfeit detected. Cultivation failed!”
“What the hell! Fine, I accept getting a fake, but a fake you can’t even cultivate? What the heck are you trying to pull? Are you asking for a beating from heaven?” Lin Fan inwardly cursed, though his face remained one of deep gratitude.
He then feigned an expression of having obtained a priceless treasure, eagerly opening the jade slip to study the supreme Buddhist art. His expression shifted slightly.
“Huh!”
“Ah!”
“How could this happen?!”
“Senior, I can’t cultivate this!” Lin Fan said, lifting his head.
“Haha, too hasty. This is the foremost Buddhist art, how could it be so easy to cultivate? It requires ‘Buddha Nature,’ a trait only the Future Boundless King Buddha possesses. However, this ancestor has a pill that can grant one artificial Buddha Nature. This isn’t just any ordinary Buddha Nature—it allows cultivation of this supreme art and endlessly enhances wisdom. From then on, no technique in the world would be beyond your grasp.”
As he spoke, a pill floated out from the mountains, radiating a dense golden Buddhist light filled with chanting voices, as if countless Buddhas were paying homage.
“Thank you, Senior!” Lin Fan’s face lit up with joy as he grabbed the pill.
“叮！Detected Desireless Demon Pill.”
“Desireless Demon Pill: Forged using the blood of Desireless Demon Ancestor. Once consumed, you will be controlled by him.”
“Grants 50 million experience upon consumption.”
Lin Fan sighed inwardly. Could there be no trust between people anymore?
Could it be that all old masters were this devious?
If it weren’t for his system, how many times would he have been deceived?
Damn it! No wonder this Desireless Demon Ancestor was sealed away—he deserved it!
Lin Fan decided to play along and see what else the old demon had up his sleeve.
Still, the 50 million experience wasn’t bad. He could live with that.
“Once you take this pill, you’ll be able to cultivate this supreme Buddhist art,” Desireless said.
Lin Fan looked at Desireless, nearly in tears, “Senior, your kindness is something I will remember for life! For you to give me such a pill, I don’t even know what to say anymore.”
Desireless chuckled, “Take it. Here, you won’t be disturbed. I see that your will is strong and your heart pure. I wouldn’t bother with someone who was wicked or violent.”
Lin Fan nodded. What else could he say? He took the pill and swallowed it.
“One pill in the belly—my fate is mine, not yours!”
Crunchy!
Delicious!
“叮! Congratulations, experience increased by 50 million.”
Seeing the youth swallow the pill, Desireless burst into uncontrollable laughter, “Hahahaha!”
“Senior, why are you laughing?” Lin Fan blinked and asked.
Cough! Cough!
Suddenly, Desireless began coughing violently, as if realizing something shocking, his voice tinged with disbelief.
“Don’t you feel anything?” he asked.
Lin Fan shook his head, “Not really, just a warmth in my stomach.”
Desireless was stunned. Warmth in the stomach? Impossible!
Then Lin Fan picked up the jade slip again and frowned, “Senior, I still can’t understand it!”
Desireless was shocked. Impossible! His pill, forged with his own lifeblood, should never fail. It must be the dosage was too low. That drop of blood had cost him a century of cultivation.
“Little one, don’t rush. Perhaps the pill’s effect was too weak. I have another one,” Desireless said.
“Senior, that won’t do! I already wasted one,” Lin Fan said, feigning embarrassment. He muttered to himself, “Sigh, sometimes having too much talent is a curse. One pill might be enough for others, but for me, it’s clearly insufficient.”
Hearing this, Desireless grew intrigued. He peered closely through the seal and discovered he couldn’t even perceive the youth’s talent.
Excited, he gritted his teeth and drew another drop of blood, forging it into another pill.
Whoosh!
“This one—take it,” Desireless felt a pang but thought it worth it.
He sent his consciousness into the void, using emotions to send dreams to his demonic disciples, teaching them techniques.
Whoever used his techniques to kill enemies could condense the foe’s essence into a pill, which they would offer to him after a year.
This had been going on for many years, and Desireless’s power had gradually recovered. Once it reached a certain level, he could abandon his body, use a supreme technique, pierce the seal, and take over a new body.
Eventually, he could retrieve his original body.
This was the perfect timing—until he encountered this anomaly, Lin Fan, which piqued his interest.
Now, discovering the youth’s extraordinary talent, he grew even more determined.
If the talent was high enough, he might even abandon his current Desireless Demon Body.
Lin Fan took the pill, swallowing it with satisfaction.
“叮! Congratulations, experience increased by 50 million.”
Wow! That was so damn refreshing!
“Well?” Desireless asked again.
“I still can’t understand it!” Lin Fan looked up, wailing.
“How?!” Desireless was stunned. Two pills, and still no effect?
Impossible! That defied all logic!
“Senior, I told you, my talent is special. The pills just aren’t enough!” Lin Fan said.
“Don’t worry, I’ve got more,” Desireless refused to give up, spitting out more blood to forge another.
Though Lin Fan feigned reluctance, inside he was laughing like crazy.
What an idiot!
This demon ancestor was indeed powerful—just his blood alone could grant so much experience, even more potent than divine pills!
“Again…” Desireless said.
“Alright.”
