Chapter 1988 - 1970: Exposed?
Afterward, under the dumbfounded gaze of the Lihuo Saint Emperor, the fused flame entered the Pill Furnace and began refining the Elixir!
Coincidentally, this time Lin Feng was also refining the Primordial Chaos Pill, a prescription Fang Yan had previously obtained. This situation left the Lihuo Saint Emperor at a loss for words. He had once asked someone to refine the Primordial Chaos Pill, so he knew what Lin Feng was trying to make. Seeing Lin Feng, he was completely speechless.
Mysterious and unpredictable strength!
An alchemist capable of refining Supreme Elixirs!
And possesses a terrifying flame not much different from the Heavenly Flame Lihuo!
...
What kind of freak is this!
Considering the strength Lin Feng has now, the Lihuo Saint Emperor truly didn’t know how to describe his inner shock. To think that Lin Feng is just in his early twenties, yet possesses so many world-defying abilities, it’s beyond what anyone can comprehend, not even him.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng ignored everything else and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the task of refining Elixirs...
......
On the other side, Fang Yan led Qin Kun and Wu Shan into the Heaven Demon Forest, where numerous Demon Venerable Realm demon beasts gathered as soon as Fang Yan arrived.
"Mr. Fang is here!"
"Hello, Mr. Fang!"
...
Many of the demon beasts greeted Fang Yan, truly delighted to see him. Having an alchemist like Fang Yan meant that as long as they gathered enough Spiritual Medicine, Fang Yan could refine Elixirs for them. This was a huge boon for them, as alchemy was just a dream in the past. Now Lin Feng had made that dream a reality, so they were very excited to see him!
"You two, go find some Demon Immortal Realm beasts to spar with. I need to discuss something with them," Fang Yan waved at the demon beasts, said to Qin Kun and Wu Shan, and tossed them a few Elixirs to take away after the gathering.
Although Qin Kun and Wu Shan didn’t understand what Lin Feng wanted to discuss with these powerful demon beasts, they didn’t need to think about it. They just needed to improve their strength as quickly as possible. Moreover, the Demon Immortal Realm beasts were already enough for them to train with, so they happily left to confront the beasts at this time.
After the two left, Fang Yan turned to the many Demon Venerable Realm beasts and said, "I’ve been out recently and obtained some books about demon beasts from other Cultivation Worlds. They contain some special spells that can help you enhance your strength."
After speaking, Fang Yan immediately took out several books and handed them to the beasts. The books contained Cultivation Techniques for demon beasts, which were useless to him but perfect for winning over the Demon Venerable Realm beasts.
What!
Cultivation Techniques for demon beasts!
...
The demon beasts were stunned to hear Fang Yan and see him actually take out the demon beast Cultivation Techniques. Fang Yan had brought out something that was incredibly scarce compared to human Cultivation Techniques; they were almost nonexistent. This was because demon beasts relied on their bodies and instincts for combat and cultivation, with little interest in studying complex things.
Creating a Cultivation Technique suitable for demon beasts could only be done by a beast and certainly not an ordinary one. Historical records are scant, but those that exist were created by existence above the Demon Saint level. For these beasts, those were beings they’d only dream of reaching.
Now, having received the Cultivation Techniques passed down by Demon Saint-level beasts, their excitement was beyond words. Many unknowingly shed tears, realizing that with these Cultivation Techniques, the overall strength of their Demon Beast Forest would soar, and they would fear no human sect from that point forward!
"Mr. Fang, please accept our bow!"
"Mr. Fang, please accept our bow!"
...
All the Demon Venerable Realm beasts respectfully bowed to Fang Yan. The Elixirs he had previously refined for them were already a great kindness, but bringing these Cultivation Techniques was a favor beyond repayment; the only way to express their gratitude was through a respectful bow.
Fang Yan didn’t stop their show of respect because he understood the beasts; stopping them would only make them feel more uncomfortable inside.
After they finished bowing, Fang Yan said, "I just came to the Heaven Demon Forest to deliver these Cultivation Techniques. Also, remember not to tell anyone about these demon beast Cultivation Techniques, you should understand why."
"Don’t worry, Mr. Fang. We know what to do."
"Don’t worry, Mr. Fang. We beasts keep our promises stronger than humans."
...
The beasts quickly assured Fang Yan after hearing him. They understood Fang Yan’s hint well—everyone likes to keep secrets, and Fang Yan helping them this much, they couldn’t do anything to make him regret it, nor would they want to.
However, at that moment, one demon beast’s face turned pale, conflicted and uneasy, drawing the attention of the other beasts. Even Fang Yan noticed it, his gaze quickly shifting towards that beast.
Suddenly, the beast bit down hard and knelt before Fang Yan under everyone’s watchful eyes...
"Mr. Fang, I have made a mistake, please punish me..." The beast looked at Fang Yan with a sincere expression.
"What is it?" Fang Yan was bemused by the kneeling beast, unclear what it meant.
All the other beasts stared intently at the kneeling beast, equally curious about what it had done. To them, Fang Yan was the great benefactor of the entire Heaven Demon Forest. This beast suddenly claimed it had erred in some manner, which piqued everyone’s curiosity.
Feeling the intense stares, the beast dared not conceal anything further, continuing to Fang Yan, "Not long ago, Sky Sword Ancestor visited Heaven Demon Forest, and during our conversation, I revealed matters regarding Mr. Fang. I have a close relationship with Sky Sword Ancestor, and in a moment of lapse, I spoke too much!"
"How could you!"
"Are you out of your mind? Mr. Fang is openly associated with the Divine Sword Sect!"
"Foolish, foolish! How could you let that slip out when it’s something you should never reveal!"
...
The other beasts were so outraged by what they heard, almost coughing up blood. They couldn’t believe how careless the beast could be, revealing such a matter, likely aware of how exceptional Fang Yan was and his further affiliation with the Divine Sword Sect. By this action, Fang Yan was exposed to unnecessary risks!
Staring at the beast, other beasts now wanted to punish it but knew it would hardly remedy the situation; they were left seething. In the face of such a significant issue, usually friendly relationships faltered, struggling to forgive this betrayal.
Exposed?
After hearing the beast’s words, Fang Yan was speechless, not anticipating that a beast would betray such sensitive information and, of all people, to Sky Sword Ancestor. All these recent misgivings grew his concerns. He hadn’t yet uncovered the ultimate plan in the Immortal Realm, should it become known prematurely, he wondered about completing his task. The thought alone made him nauseous.
No, wait...
As Fang Yan was fretting, an idea surfaced, that if he had genuinely been exposed, he wouldn’t have safely returned to the Divine Sword Sect at all, nor had Sky Sword Ancestor sought him out. Therefore, there remained more to the situation if Sky Sword Ancestor had not turned hostile immediately.
Knowing this, he sighed in relief, instinct affirming that Sky Sword Ancestor likely had no intention to disclose his matters. To understand the reason, he might directly meet with Sky Sword Ancestor.
"No need to worry, I know about it now. However, anything regarding my presence in the Heaven Demon Forest from now on must not be disclosed. Understand?" Seeing the troubled beast, Fang Yan considered before elaborating, still pondering whether he should meet Sky Sword Ancestor.
"Yes, Mr. Fang, rest assured, we’ll keep it confidential!"
"Don’t worry, Mr. Fang. Such a thing won’t happen again."
"We promise to keep Mr. Fang’s secrets!"
...
The demon beasts vowed in their responses, genuinely scared. Fang Yan was indispensable for the Heaven Demon Forest now; losing his support would spell disaster. Given this understanding, none would dare utter a word regarding Fang Yan.
"Relax, there’s no issue at all." Seeing their tense attitudes, Fang Yan reassured with a smile. Then, turning, he swiftly vanished from their sight.
On the other side, Qin Kun and Wu Shan had just found their opponents when Fang Yan sent them a voice message.
"I have matters to attend to. Synchronize your efforts and return to the Sect in five days. I’ll take you to explore afterward."
The two weren’t overly surprised by Fang Yan’s directive, quickly engaging the Demon Immortal Realm beasts in combat. Their priority was enhancing their prowess, hoping to eventually explore other Cultivation Worlds with Fang Yan, with high curiosity for what these worlds took to offer...
