Chapter 1090: Falling Ill

Throw away these low-grade immortal pills.

Lin Fan didn’t feel the slightest bit of regret. These low-grade pills were barely worth considering—they were like crumbs stuck between one’s teeth, tasting terrible. After swallowing them, one would feel like vomiting.

But now, it’s great. In front of him floated a sea of mid-grade, high-grade, and even top-grade immortal pills.

He even had the urge to throw away those mid-grade pills, but he thought better of it. After all, they still gave some experience. Throwing them away would be a shame, so he reluctantly decided to swallow a few.

In the Heaven and Earth Sect,

A disciple was walking along the path, heading to exchange sect contribution points for some pills. Since joining the sect, he had finally accumulated enough points through his own efforts, which thrilled him greatly, making him feel quite accomplished.

Plop!

Something seemed to hit him on the head.

“Who? Who attacked me?” The disciple immediately looked around, but noticed none of his senior or junior brothers nearby. Then what had hit him?

He searched around and suddenly noticed a black, round object on the ground—seemed like a pill.

“Huh, strange, what is this thing?”

He picked it up and examined it carefully. As he sniffed slightly, a strong fragrance of the pill entered his nose, and the spiritual energy in his body seemed to boil.

“What is this?” The disciple was shocked, as if he had seen a ghost.

But when he saw a divine immortal law inscribed on the pill’s surface, he was terrified, his whole body trembling.

“This… this is an immortal pill.”

Although he had never taken one before, he had seen them. The most important mark of an immortal pill was this divine law.

A single divine law meant a low-grade immortal pill, and what he held in his hand was precisely that.

“Could it be that my luck, Zhang Dafei’s, has finally come? This is a heaven-sent immortal pill!” Zhang Dafei was ecstatic inside. He looked up, but upon seeing the scene in the sky, he screamed in terror.

“Immortal pills are coming!”

A roar shook the heavens.

All the surrounding disciples looked up and saw countless black dots blotting out the sky, falling like rain.

The intense fragrance of the pills filled the air, spreading through the void, leaving everyone stunned, unable to believe their eyes.

This commotion drew the attention of the sect.

“What?! Immortal pills raining down from the sky in the sect? How is that possible?”

Countless people rushed to the scene. When they looked up, they were utterly horrified.

The immortal pills had spirits of their own, some floating and rolling freely in the air, yet unable to break through the Heaven and Earth Sect’s barrier.

“Where are these immortal pills coming from?” One disciple pointed toward the distant mountains.

“That’s the peak of Lin Senior Brother.”

“Could this possibly be a gift from Senior Lin?”

Long live Lin师兄! Lin师兄 is awesome!

translated to English:

“Long live Brother Lin! Brother Lin is awesome!”

At this moment, everyone was ecstatic.

The vice sect leader and elders were stunned by the sight. This was too shocking.

They were all low-grade immortal pills, which could be extremely useful to ordinary disciples, and even if swallowed, wouldn’t cause an explosion in the body.

But what puzzled them was why so many low-grade immortal pills were thrown out.

Didn’t someone realize the importance of low-grade immortal pills?

Geng Yangtian, upon learning the situation, could only helplessly shake his head. He had given up trying to understand this disciple’s depth.

He didn’t ask the disciple about what had happened, for it was a secret among the disciples. Although he was the sect’s supreme ancestor, he wouldn’t pry.

Because disciples like Lin Fan were the future of the sect.

At this moment, on the mountain peak,

Lin Fan opened his mouth wide and bit into the void, swallowing a large cluster of pills in one go, not even bothering to chew before gulping them down.

The pill spirits around him roared in fear.

“Don’t eat us!”

“Please spare us! We are pill spirits, we have consciousness, we are living beings!”

“Cursed one! You dare eat us! We will fight you to the end!”

The pill spirits resisted fiercely, but to Lin Fan, they were nothing more than ants—utterly insignificant.

With one bite, he swallowed a whole cluster. It was terrifying indeed.

“Ding! Congratulations, experience increased by 200,000.”

“Ding! Congratulations, experience increased by 50,000.”

“Ding! Congratulations, experience increased by 300,000.”

“I will eat, I will eat! Even if I can’t eat anymore, I must keep eating!”

Lin Fan swung both arms, grabbing handful after handful of pills and stuffing them into his mouth.

This time, he was determined—if he didn’t finish all these pills, he wouldn’t be human anymore.

Feeling like vomiting, he held it in and swallowed it back.

“Ha…”

Keep going.

One day passed.

In the secluded cultivation chamber, there was only one sound—the sound of swallowing pills.

Two days passed.

Three days passed.

Ten days later.

“I can’t take it anymore! I really can’t! I’m about to develop pill aversion syndrome!”

Lin Fan was drenched in sweat, his face flushed red, as if he had been holding his breath for too long. He truly couldn’t endure it anymore.

If this continued, he might become the first person in the world to die from overconsuming pills.

But once he had made a promise, even if he had to crawl, he must fulfill it. He would not stop until every pill was consumed.

Looking at the small pile of pills remaining, Lin Fan gritted his teeth, enduring the discomfort. No matter what, he had to finish them.

He glanced at the system experience bar—it had increased significantly.

The experience required to advance from Immortal Sovereign to Immortal King was terrifyingly vast. These pills alone could barely help.

But there was no choice—these pills provided him with massive experience. He had no choice but to endure this torment and force himself to finish them all.

The next day!

Vomiting sounds!

Lin Fan stood up, his body swaying unsteadily as if he had suffered a severe injury. His limbs were weak, his lips numb, almost losing all sensation.

He had just opened his mouth to vomit, but held it in again.

Now, not a single pill remained before him.

A狂 laugh broke out from his face, “Hahaha…”

Letting out a maniacal laugh, Lin Fan almost laughed himself into unconsciousness.

“I finally succeeded! What kind of being am I, Lin Fan? Swallowing all these pills was just like child’s play!” Lin Fan muttered to himself.

“Don’t eat me, don’t eat me!” Suddenly, a voice entered Lin Fan’s ears.

“Huh?” Lin Fan frowned, then turned his gaze toward the corner of the room.

There, hiding behind, was one pill, its spirit trembling with fear, eyes filled with infinite terror, as if deeply traumatized.

“You…” Seeing this pill, Lin Fan’s heart suddenly trembled.

“Don’t eat me!” The last remaining pill spirit cried out in despair.

Seeing the pill, Lin Fan covered his mouth with one hand and leaned against the wall, unable to hold back—he vomited violently.

With a flick of his sleeve, the secret chamber door instantly opened. “Get out! Hurry up and get out! Don’t let me see you again…”

Upon witnessing this, the pill didn’t hesitate at all, and fled in terror.

Scary! So scary!

This devil was terrifying—he had devoured so many of his friends.

“Oh no, I really have developed pill aversion syndrome,” Lin Fan thought grimly, realizing he had fallen ill.
