Chapter 114: Junior Brother, Kick His Balls Off

Night.

The Nameless Peak appeared somewhat desolate. With only three people living on such an expansive mountain, it felt rather quiet and lonely.

“Master, today’s mission didn’t go well. Only one servant disciple believed us when we were wrapping things up, while all the other outer disciples just watched us like spectators, showing complete distrust towards us,” reported Zhang Erdou truthfully about the day’s events.

Lin Fan did not speak, but instead looked at the wild boar resting on the wooden frame.

Zizi…

The roasted wild boar emitted waves of aroma, and the crispy skin crackled with a sizzling sound. Lin Fan couldn’t help but swallow hard—this game meat looked really delicious.

Zhang Er’gou and Feng Buju were also lured by this aroma, drooling with desire. However, since the Sect Leader hadn’t given any orders, they could only wait.

“This situation today is exactly as I expected. However, having one disciple who believes in us is indeed a promising start. Anyway, there’s no need to rush; we’ll take it slowly,” Lin Fan said calmly, showing no sign of impatience.

Although it is very important to establish the reputation of the Holy Demon Sect, one’s own cultivation strength is also extremely important.

After an afternoon of hard work, Lin Fan had already cultivated the sixth level of power in “Wave Force.” If everything went smoothly, after one more night of cultivation that evening, reaching the eighth level of power should not be a problem.

After reaching the fifth level of “Wave Power,” the amount of experience required for each subsequent level was, in Lin Fan’s opinion, already more than enough.

“Alright, time to eat. After finishing your meal, everyone go back to your rooms and cultivate. We’ll continue the promotion tomorrow,” Lin Fan said, clapping his hands as he took the wild boar off the fire. Then he tore off a leg and began eating voraciously.

The taste is quite good, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender. After finishing it, the aroma lingers in your mouth, leaving an endless aftertaste.

“Master, I didn’t expect this wild boar to be so delicious,” Zhang Erdou said with bright eyes, and without any hesitation, he started eating heartily.

Feng Buju, standing nearby, was nodding vigorously while eating, showing strong agreement with his senior brother’s words.

…

After returning indoors.

Lin Fan looked at the three herbs in his hand; these were the main ingredients for refining the Qi and Blood Pill, and the only type of medicinal herb required.

This herb has two leaves, each of which bears patterns resembling human body veins. However, these patterns are red in color.

Qi and Blood Pill.

Lin Fan directly threw it into the spiritual sea pill furnace.

Done in less than a second.

Now Lin Fan’s pill refining level has reached the 16th grade, making him a master among masters.

Refining this extremely simple Qi and Blood Enhancing Pill doesn’t require much time at all, and it can fully extract the essence from all three herbs to form the pill.

“Ding! Congratulations on successfully refining the lower-grade Yellow-tier Qi and Blood Pill.”

“Ding! After taking the Qi and Blood Pill, it can enhance qi and blood, but is ineffective for those at the innate stage. It can also grant an additional +1 experience.”

As for this kind of pill, Lin Fan didn’t even want to look at it. It was far too inferior, so low-grade that Lin Fan didn’t know what to say.

It’s not even as effective as the Qi-Enhancing Pills he used to take.

Now, my cultivation level is at the early stage of Primordial Realm. According to the previous state before the system update, it should be at the ninth stage of Primordial Realm, on the verge of entering the Divine Ascension stage.

And now, with his early Primordial cultivation base, he could easily crush even those at the peak of the Primordial realm. Behind that level was a long bar, but currently, it was only half filled, meaning that out of a maximum of one hundred million experience points, he had earned only fifty million at most.

It’s ridiculous. / That’s outrageous.

I wonder when I’ll be able to level up. It seems like I’ll have to wait for the right opportunity and then go all out killing some monsters.

This kind of low-grade pill, with one set of ingredients, can produce at most five pills when the furnace is in perfect condition. Yet, with just a casual refining attempt, he managed to create ten. This is the difference between a top master and an ordinary person.

It can perfectly extract every last drop of the herbs’ essence, leaving nothing behind.

After carefully storing away the thirty pills, Lin Fan entered a state of cultivation.

Just like during the day, he began cultivating the “Wave Force.”

With a wave of his left hand and a wave of his right, the void trembled repeatedly, as if a force were compressing the empty space itself.

…

The next day.

Zhang Erdou and Feng Buju woke up early and went down the mountain to continue their promotion.

The outer disciples had completely lost interest in this unnamed peak. Cultivating pills? Not a chance! Nobody in their right mind would fall for such a trick, let alone waste their time on it.

They would rather go to Dan Ding Peak and be ruthlessly exploited than use medicinal herbs for free experimentation.

Mao Xiaoxiao had already gotten up early enough. Since last night when he returned to the servant’s quarters, he had been too anxious to eat or sleep properly. As soon as he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with thoughts of the pills.

He didn’t know what awaited him tomorrow.

It was the apologetic expressions on the senior brothers’ faces that indicated the pills had not been successfully refined.

It was still the congratulatory gaze from the senior apprentices that handed the pill over to him.

Mao Xiaoxiao, who had been thinking about it all night with a full mind, got up early in the morning and hurried toward the outer gate.

“Do you still want to promote yourselves? No one will come to you for pill cultivation,” a disciple from the outer court mocked.

“Yeah, instead of wasting time like this, you should focus on cultivating your skills. Feng Jue, I think it was a mistake for you to enter that nameless peak.”

“Even if you stand here the entire day, not a single senior or junior brother will come to you for help with refining pills.”

Zhang Erdou looked at these outer disciples with a displeased smirk, “If you’re not going to cultivate, can you just leave? Really annoying.”

“What, aren’t we even allowed to take a look around here?” said the outer gate disciple, clearly displeased.

“Senior Brother, don’t argue with them anymore, it’s pointless,” Feng Buju said from the side.

Zhang Erdou nodded slightly, then cast a glance at the man’s crotch and said menacingly, “Be careful.”

“Hmph…”

…

At this moment, Mao Xiaoxiao, who had entrusted Lin Fan to refine pills the previous night, arrived in a hurry. When she saw a large number of outer sect senior brothers paying attention to her, Mao Xiaoxiao couldn’t help feeling nervous.

“Senior Brother, is my refining process complete?” Mao Xiaoxiao inquired.

“It’s done,” Zhang Er’gou said with a smile. Then he took off a cloth bag tied around his waist and threw it to Mao Xiaoxiao.

Mao Xiaoxiao squeezed the bag and instantly felt delighted. In his opinion, there were at least seven Blood Qi Pills inside. With just three sets of ingredients, over seven pills had been successfully refined—this… this…

“Thank you, senior brother, thank you, senior brother,” Mao Xiaoxiao exclaimed joyfully in gratitude and then prepared to leave.

“Wait a second.” At this moment, Mao Xiaoxiao was taken aback, unsure of what else could be going on.

“What’s the rush? There’s more to come,” Zhang Erdog said helplessly. To him, the Sect Leader’s pill-refining technique was truly impressive.

With just three herbs, one can refine thirty pills, which is unparalleled in the world and truly admirable.

“Ahh…” Mao Xiaoxiao stared in astonishment at Zhang Erdou, who then tossed over two more cloth bags.

“There are thirty spirit stones here in total. The Sect Leader said that since you’re just a novice disciple, he won’t charge you for the labor fee.” Zhang Erdou added the second half of the sentence off the top of his head.

According to the Sect Leader’s original intention, these pills were too worthless to keep, and since they were of no use, he decided not to charge any labor fees.

However, in Zhang Erdou’s opinion, if put that way, Master Mao would surely be heartbroken, so he decided to rephrase it slightly.

Indeed, as soon as Mao Xiaoxiao took the two bags, his eyes widened in shock as he stared at Zhang Erdou. He couldn’t believe it; there were actually thirty eggs.

“Thank you, Master Zong, thank you, Senior Brother, thank you…” Mao Xiaoxiao immediately expressed her gratitude, almost kneeling down to kowtow.

“Hey, apprentice Lin Fan, what kind of pill were you having them refine for you?” asked an outer disciple with a smile at this moment.

“Qi and Blood Pill,” said Mao Xiaoxiao.

“Haha… Listen to this, ‘Qi and Blood Pill’?”

“Haha, Blood Qi Pill.”

At this moment, the outer disciples burst into laughter, and the disdain on their faces vanished completely.

“I just said that they can only make this kind of pill. Senior Li from the Dan Cauldron Peak wouldn’t even bother making such a pill. Moreover, Senior Li can produce three pills from a single portion of ingredients since this kind of pill lacks any real difficulty.”

Mao Xiaoxiao didn’t understand why these senior brothers were laughing. He then hesitantly said, “Senior Brother, but I only provided three sets of ingredients, which produced thirty Blood Qi Pills.”

The outer disciples who had been laughing uproariously suddenly froze, their faces showing disbelief. “Impossible! Even Senior Li from the Dan Cauldron Peak can produce only three pills in one refining session. What capability does the Nameless Peak have? They must have deliberately given you extra. That’s it, definitely!”

At this moment, Zhang Erdog became furious. This guy was just too brazen. If we don’t kick him in the balls, he’ll really think we’re easy targets.

“Junior apprentice, you’re up. Kick him in the balls.” Zhang Er gou immediately signaled to Feng Bu jue.

Just at that moment, a loud noise came from not far away.

Everyone’s gaze was also drawn over there.
