Chapter 1006: I’ll Beat You to Death, You Bastard

“My name is Qiu Zhan Yu.”

“My name is Jin Zhen Gu.”

The Devil Monarch nodded with satisfaction but concealed a surge of murderous intent within his heart. However, this murderous intent was carefully hidden. To the Devil Monarch, this fellow’s pills were of tremendous help, and perhaps in a short time, he could recover from his injuries.

Once that happened, he would certainly kill those old bastards without mercy.

He had wandered the Endless Continent for tens of thousands of years, seeing countless pills, yet the pills this insignificant man offered astonished him greatly.

They bore no trace of Xian Dao laws, yet were comparable to celestial pills.

However, due to the Devil Monarch’s immense power and severe injuries, these divine pills that could instantly heal were not of much use to him.

After swallowing hundreds of them, his injuries had only recovered by two-tenths, which was terrifying enough for the Devil Monarch.

He had hidden himself in this underground abyss, letting his servants lure strong cultivators, absorbing their essence and blood to heal himself, but the process was far too slow.

He couldn’t afford to wait that long.

After inspecting the so-called Kun Yuan Invincible Healing Supreme Pill, he found no issues. With his current cultivation, he was not afraid of any trickery by these insignificant beings.

“Give this Sovereign more of these pills!” the Devil Monarch commanded coldly, his eyes flashing with icy intent, as if he would kill them if they refused.

Lin Fan, who had met his match, was genuinely impressed by the Devil Monarch. Though injured, the Devil Monarch was still formidable.

If they had recklessly confronted him in the abyss, even a mere flick of the Devil Monarch’s divine consciousness as a Golden Immortal would have crushed Lin Fan to dust.

“Devil Monarch, there are no more pills left. If you want more, we’ll need spirit herbs,” Lin Fan said, his expression genuinely fearful, perfectly portraying his complete lack of resistance before a superior force.

Regardless of anything else, Lin Fan’s acting skills were top-notch, worthy of an Oscar-winning performance.

At the same time, Lin Fan revealed his cultivation level, allowing the Devil Monarch to see clearly and relax his vigilance.

To a Golden Immortal, a cultivator at the True Immortal stage was nothing but an ant.

“Hmph?” The Devil Monarch’s expression changed, clearly showing anger, as if furious that Lin Fan had no more pills.

“Devil Monarch, even if you kill me, it won’t help. I’ve already turned all my spirit herbs into pills,” Lin Fan replied.

The Devil Monarch fell silent, seemingly pondering the situation. But soon, he spoke, “What spirit herbs do you need?”

“Any spirit herbs will do, but they must contain spiritual essence. If you happen to have any Xian Cao spirit herbs, that would be even better. Then I could concoct the Xuang Huang Invincible Supreme Pills. Just one of those pills would completely heal your injuries,” Lin Fan explained.

“What? Can you really concoct such divine pills?” The Devil Monarch was astonished. Though he was a Golden Immortal capable of concocting some pills, as he wasn’t a professional alchemist, he couldn’t create many types of potent pills.

Hearing Lin Fan’s words, how could he not be shocked?

Initially, the Devil Monarch had planned to kill Lin Fan after recovering his strength, but now, a new idea formed in his mind.

If he could make this fellow his subordinate, he could have him concoct pills for him in the future.

However, the Devil Monarch had no intention of trusting Lin Fan. Once his strength was fully restored, he would unleash supreme techniques to transform Lin Fan into a soulless puppet or strip him of everything, seizing his pill-concocting talent.

But for now, his injuries were too severe for such techniques.

“Very well. If you dare to deceive me, your fate will be extremely tragic,” the Devil Monarch said, raising his finger as countless spirit herbs swirled into the air.

“I would never dare! I am completely loyal to the Devil Monarch. How could I possibly deceive you?”

Lin Fan took control of these spirit herbs and began the pretense of concocting pills. However, in his mind, he was already plotting how to destroy the Devil Monarch.

Slowly, the Da Fan’s power seeped into the pills. The pills he had previously given to the Devil Monarch already contained traces of Da Fan’s power.

Although the Devil Monarch had swallowed hundreds of pills, Lin Fan feared the Da Fan power wasn’t strong enough, so he made more pills, hoping the Devil Monarch would consume even more.

Eat up, you bastard. Soon you’ll be in for a big surprise.

Watching everything unfold, the Devil Monarch nodded approvingly and then raised his finger. “This is a Xian Cao spirit herb. Make it into a pill for me.”

At this moment, a Xian Cao spirit herb floated in midair. It had only three leaves, each crystal clear like snowflakes, exuding a chilling, icy aura.

“This is the Ji Han San Yin Cao (Extreme Cold Triple Yin Grass).”

Lin Fan revealed a slight expression of surprise.

“Hmph, it seems you do have some knowledge,” the Devil Monarch sneered.

It was precisely because of this Ji Han San Yin Cao that he had sustained severe injuries. This Xian Cao (immortal herb) was extremely rare, requiring tens of thousands of years to mature. It could be used to concoct a Jiu Zhuan Yun Shen Dan (Nine Revolutions Divine Pill), a pill capable of powerfully elevating one’s cultivation by an entire minor realm.

That was why he had been ambushed and eventually defeated by those old bastards, although he had managed to seize this immortal herb (Xian Cao).

Lin Fan’s heart leapt with joy, astonished by his unexpected fortune, and he placed the immortal herb (Xian Cao) carefully in his palm.

Upon contact, his hand was instantly covered with a layer of white frost.

This was the power of a Xian Cao (immortal herb). An ordinary person would freeze into an ice sculpture upon touching it.

Truly overwhelming in power.

What a lucky find!

Holding the immortal herb (Xian Cao) in his hand, Lin Fan was overjoyed, never expecting the Devil Monarch to possess such a treasure. He wondered whether there might be more.

“Concoct the Immortal Herb,” the Devil Monarch commanded coldly.

Like hell I will. Little me is counting on this Xian Cao to ascend to the heavens.

“Devil Monarch, this Xian Cao requires time. These pills will be ready soon. You can take these first,” Lin Fan replied with a look of difficulty on his face.

The Devil Monarch remained silent, his unnaturally handsome face darkening slightly.

Moody and capricious—truly a madman.

This was Lin Fan’s conclusion.

“Pill completed!”

Lin Fan said softly, flipping his hand. One pill after another, exuding a fragrant aroma, floated into the air.

At this moment, Qiu Zhan Yu and Jin Zhen Gu were completely stunned.

Their big brother had clearly given up, not thinking of escaping, but instead helping the devil concoct pills. If the devil fully recovered, wouldn’t they all be doomed?

Such a simple truth, how could their big brother not understand?

At that moment, the two clung together, completely devoid of any thoughts of resistance.

As for their grand trap, forget it.

This opponent was simply too terrifying.

Looking at the pills before him, the Devil Monarch’s heart swelled with joy. He opened his mouth wide and swallowed the entire batch of pills.

The potent medicinal energy instantly dissolved and flowed into the Devil Monarch’s body.

Seeing the Devil Monarch’s actions, Lin Fan sneered inwardly.

Keep eating, you bastard. Soon, you’ll be crying.
