Chapter 634: What’s the Rush?

Lin Fan calmed himself inwardly. He couldn’t rush; absolutely couldn’t rush. They needed to discuss things carefully.

Soon after, Lin Fan crouched far away with Thunder, Divine Trainer, and King of Methods, secretly discussing matters amongst themselves.

The ten old men gazed at this distant lifeform, as though whispering something to each other, exchanging thoughts.

“How this lifeform got here is unknown to us, but no matter what, we cannot miss this opportunity,” said Red-Halo Demon Sovereign.

“We must seize it—absolutely seize it. Surviving the Supreme Jie’s refining process must mean he has some method.”

“That’s right. This is the inner world of the ancient race’s Supreme Being. As long as our actions aren’t too excessive, he absolutely won’t sense anything. But how do we make this lifeform trust us?”

…

“What do you guys think we should do? These ten old men don’t seem like good people. Should we take action?” Lin Fan’s heart stirred with excitement. These ten elders possessed such formidable cultivation, and there were so many Holy Yang Pills. If he could seize the opportunity and obtain everything, he could truly ascend to the heavens.

“Master, could I have one? I’d like to train it. A Divine Heaven Tenth-Level being—I’ve never trained someone so powerful before.”

“No problem.” At this moment, those elders seemed like fish on a chopping board—helpless and awaiting slaughter.

“I think we should fully exploit these old men. If we can obtain their cultivation methods, that would be best. Then, we could cultivate, absorb their essence, and integrate it into ourselves—now that would be a fortune!” said Da Fange’s Spirit.

When Da Fange’s Spirit said this, the divine method gods within Lin Fan’s inner world also became agitated, nodding in agreement, clearly filled with anticipation.

“Yeah, that’s a good idea,” Lin Fan agreed without hesitation.

Here, whatever they obtained would be a guaranteed profit.

Even if the ancient race’s Supreme Being “Jie” discovered them, what could he do? At worst, they’d die, but the Mei race had already taken a drop of his essence, ready to resurrect him anytime.

Of course, all of this was thanks to the System.

Because of the Backpack, even if he were killed, nothing would drop.

Especially when combined with “Blood-Drop Rebirth,” it was even more incredible.

At this moment, both sides harbored ulterior motives and met once again.

“Young friend, we are all beings of the Great Thousand Races, fighting together against the Ancient Race. Unlock our chains, and we shall fight our way out together,” said Red-Halo Demon Sovereign.

“Right, for the Great Thousand Races, for love, for peace, for overthrowing the Ancient Race—we will stop at nothing!” Yu Du Ghost Emperor declared.

“Young friend, you seem like a righteous person. Our meeting here must be fate,” said Eternal Flame Emperor.

“This despicable Jie has imprisoned us here, forcing us to refine Holy Yang Pills to enhance the Ancient Race’s power, harming countless beings of the Great Thousand Races. We are filled with grief and anger!” said Slaughter Emperor.

…

One after another, they spoke as if it were true.

Lin Fan felt deeply helpless inside. Sometimes deception required not even a hint of shame. Especially these old fellows, who spewed golden lotuses with their words—any slight carelessness could lead to being deceived.

These elders had been imprisoned here for a long time, having endured enough. But they had never had an opportunity before. Now, even though the chance was slim, they didn’t want to let it go.

“Alright, I can release you, but you must send out all your True Method Seeds so I can choose one by one,” Lin Fan said.

“Eh?” The elders’ expressions froze, clearly not expecting this young lifeform to speak so directly and bluntly start demanding benefits.

But at this moment, how could these elders dare to refuse? They’d deceive him first and deal with him later.

“Young friend, feel free to look and choose. Whichever you like, you can learn. If you like them all, you can learn them all.”

In an instant, countless True Method Seeds shot forth, floating above everyone’s heads.

These True Method Seeds varied in color, shape, and size. Each was exceptionally powerful, with divine method gods standing atop every seed.

“So powerful,” Lin Fan murmured, instantly captivated by the sight.

These elders were truly arrogant. He hadn’t expected each of them to master so many cultivation methods, all perfected to the extreme.

“Young friend, I have a technique called ‘Sky-Hiding Great Seal,’ very domineering. You should take a look.”

“I also possess a formidable technique. Once unleashed, it is unfathomable to gods and ghosts, and无敌in the world.”

“Alright, stop boasting. If you were invincible, how come the Supreme Ancient Race managed to capture you?” Lin Fan scoffed disdainfully. Then, he began carefully examining each True Method Seed, reaching out with his fingers to touch them.

“Ding! Congratulations on discovering the True Method Seed ‘Sky-Hiding Great Seal,’ containing the Yuan Spirit of Red-Halo Demon Sovereign. Learn it now?”

“Learn.”

Lin Fan inwardly smirked. He had expected these old fellows wouldn’t have good intentions. However, they didn’t know that he had the System. Every True Method Seed could be learned automatically without needing to probe with his divine consciousness.

Lin Fan knew that as soon as he infused his divine consciousness into this True Method Seed, the Yuan Spirit within would instantly try to devour him and take over his body.

But for someone as experienced as Lin Fan, how easily could he be deceived? Not to mention he had this incredible System.

Want to compete with him? They were all too naive.

“Oh no, so difficult! Which one should I learn?” Lin Fan feigned difficulty, touching each True Method Seed while letting the System learn them all.

“Young friend, you can insert your divine consciousness into it. I’ll guide you, and you can master it instantly. Even learning all the True Method Seeds here would be no problem at all,” Red-Halo Demon Sovereign suggested.

“Why the rush? Why are you so impatient? Let me look and choose a suitable one,” Lin Fan replied, now clearly in control, with the elders relying on him.

“Alright, alright. Whatever pleases you, young friend,” Red-Halo Demon Sovereign, noticing Lin Fan’s displeasure, quickly responded with a smile.

But inwardly, he was seething with rage.

“Despicable brat! Once I take control of your body, I’ll ensure you suffer endlessly!” The Red-Halo Demon Sovereign, a figure who had reigned supreme across countless eras, had experienced only a single defeat yet still exuded terrifying might. How could he possibly tolerate being berated by a junior?

“The Celestial Fire Secret Art.”

“The Heaven-Earth Annihilation Fist.”

…

“These elders’ cultivation methods are all so domineering. Great, great!” Lin Fan inwardly laughed joyfully. Each time he learned a new method, the divine method gods within his inner world would excitedly rush forth.

“This ‘Heaven-Earth Annihilation Fist’ complements my own techniques. By absorbing its strengths, I can evolve further!” the End-Time Calamity Spirit roared with laughter.

“This ‘Celestial Fire Secret Art’ can help me condense a physical form. I must absorb it too!” the Five Elements Flame roared, engulfing the ‘Celestial Fire Secret Art’ in a surge of flames. Instantly, the Five Elements Flame trembled powerfully, and a man clad in a red flame robe floated within Lin Fan’s inner world.

Lin Fan’s heart swelled with joy. The divine method gods within his inner world were ecstatic, devouring these powerful cultivation methods, which brought enormous benefits to them.

But for the elders, this was agonizing.

Why was this guy only looking without learning anything? It was driving them crazy!

“Young friend, have you chosen yet?”

“What are you rushing for? Why are you in such a hurry? Can’t you see I’m choosing?” Lin Fan replied impatiently.

“Be patient. Let the young friend choose slowly, slowly.”
