Chapter 984: Do You Think You're Number One?

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

Hu Qing was still suffering from some lingering trepidations. He felt that he had truly been way too careless. If not for the fact that Junior Brother Lin had stepped in earlier on, he would have lost that little life of his in the hands of these Earth Demons for sure.

"My thanks, Junior Brother Lin." Ever since he had tested out Lin Fan's strength, Hu Qing had never once belittled the former. And now that there was this lifesaving grace of his, Hu Qing was naturally immensely grateful.

"It's nothing. Since we're a party, we've got to help out one another." Lin Fan said.

"This is the core of that leader of those Earth Demons. By all reasoning, this should belong to Junior Brother Lin." Su Hongchen dug out the core of that Earth Demon leader.

Back in the sect, this core can be used to exchange for quite a significant amount of Contribution Points.

"Keep it and we'll split it fairly later on." Lin Fan replied.

Lin Fan had no use for stuff like this. For Lin Fan, the most practical thing to take note of was to kill as many Earth Demons as he could right now.

And not only that, it had to be those Earth Demons with the strongest strength. Only those types of Earth Demons could provide him with a continuous stream of experience points.

Lin Fan's actions naturally curried favor with everyone around. A party mate as such was someone that everyone would love to be with.

"Even though these Earth Demons are not too strong, their cores should be worth some Contribution Points as well. We can't let them go to waste now." Su Hongchen dug up the cores of those other fallen Earth Demons.

…

For the next few days, Lin Fan and the others had been slaying Earth Demons within this Earth Abyssal Demon Cave.

As a result, the cores that they had obtained were numerous. However, to Lin Fan's disappointment, even the highest cultivation state of the Earth Demons they had encountered was only Immemorial Ancient state upper level.

Lin Fan truly wanted to kill down to the deeper levels. However, when he considered that Su Hongchen and the others were with him, he gave up on that thought.

After heading back this time around, Lin Fan had the intentions of heading over alone the next time.

The deeper they got, the more the surroundings around them started changing.

There were more corpses lying all over the place.

Some of the corpses were from long ago while others could not have been there for that long. At best, they ended up here only recently.

"Such a thick Demonic Qi!"

At this moment, Su Hongchen's brows furrowed as she could sense that the Demonic Qi here was truly detestable.

Hu Qing and the others were equally surprised. They too had felt this Demonic Qi here. And not only that, the Demonic Qi was extremely vile compared to anything else. There was even a trace of Essence Blood that could be sensed in it.

"Someone is cultivating here." Ru Wanshu remarked.

Lin Fan raised his finger, "This Demonic Qi should be coming over from that place over there."

Everyone exchanged glances, "Shall we head over to check it out?"

Lin Fan was lacking powerful beings to kill right now; therefore, he immediately nodded his head, "We can try."

These few people then hid their auras and slowly inched closer before hiding behind some boulders.

"They are not cultivating some demonic skills, just cultivating their treasures." Su Hongchen said.

When Lin Fan caught sight of the situation ahead, his interest was piqued slightly. Above a pool of blood was a young man who looked extremely devilish. Beside him was a blood red saber floating around him.

There were a few blood red threads that extended out of the red saber. These blood threads seeped into the pool of blood and sucked out the Essence Blood within.

As for the Earth Demons around, they were lying with their stomachs propped up. When they opened their mouths, an endless amount of Essence Blood sprayed out.

"That's a disciple of the Blood Demon Sect. Cultivating their weapons with Essence Blood, that is a technique that only the Blood Demon Sect employs." Su Hongchen commented.

The Blood Demon Sect was a Demonic Sect, and was one of the nine great righteous sects as well.

"Who's there?"

All of a sudden, that disciple of the Blood Demon Sect jerked his eyes wide open and spat out a mouthful of Blood Qi that turned into a blood red streak of light, crushing the boulder they were hiding behind.

"Hmph! Here I was wondering who it was. Seems like it's the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect." That young man stood up as his eyes shone with a demonic gaze. There was a bone chilling feeling about him.

"Number sixty seven on the True Immortal Substitute Roll, Xue Tianzi!" At this moment, Hu Qing recognized who this person before him was.

That long robe he was wearing which was red as blood, and that demonic gaze of his… This was a powerful being on the True Immortal Substitute Roll!

"Go, hurry and go! We're not his match!" Hu Qing exclaimed out and dragged everyone along with him. For someone to be able to get on the True Immortal Substitute Roll, they must definitely be a powerful being.

This wasn't an existence they could deal with!

"HAHA! Since you're here, why not stay here? What are you guys trying to leave for?" Xue Tianzi laughed out as the sky vibrated. A series of blood red banners sealed up the entire sky and blocked off everyone's escape path.

Back in the past, Lin Fan did not know what the True Immortal Substitute Roll was. But, he now knew clearly.

This roll was the ranking of all the Immemorial Ancient state beings that had yet to enter the True Immortal state. Those who are able to have their names on the substitute roll were basically Immemorial Ancient state full cultivation state beings.

But, even then, only paragons would be able to make it into the top 100 of the list with just an Immemorial Ancient state upper level.

Since this Xue Tianzi was able to rank sixty seven, his strength must be stronger than most others for sure.

Even though the cultivation state of Hu Qing and the others was pretty decent, compared to those on the True Immortal Substitute Roll, they were still too far off… way too far off.

Thus, it was no wonder that they would have to make a run for it upon meeting someone from the True Immortal Substitute Roll.

"This Scarlet Blood Demon Saber of mine is just short of that bit of Essence Blood to be upgraded to a Supreme Grade Utmost Treasure. Since you guys are here, then you shall contribute your Essence Bloods for Your Tianzi here!" Xue Tianzi was someone of the Demonic Sect after all, and they leaned heavily towards killing.

Since Lin Fan and the others had ventured here, he would naturally not let them off.

"Not good! Xue Tianzi's killing intent towards us has been activated!" Bing Linxing's face was pale with fright.

"Xue Tianzi! We are Inner Sect disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect! If you dare to kill us, the Heaven and Earth Sect will definitely not let you off!" Hu Qing warned harshly.

"Hehe... Let me off? Well, have your Grandmaster make a trip over to the Blood Demon Sect then." Xue Tianzi roared out in laughter as he gripped that Scarlet Blood Demon Saber of his.

With that, a torrential sea of blood surged up from behind his body.

"Hundred Weapons Breaking Formation!"

At this moment, Bing Linxing roared out as a bedazzling gleam of light shone out from his body. Countless weapons flew out of it and formed up a Weapon Spirit.

The figure of this Weapon Spirit was immensely huge. When he slashed out, the entire world shook along with it.

"Insignificant tricks!"

Xue Tianzi scoffed coldly as he sliced out with the saber in his hands. A blood shade tore through the firmaments. This Scarlet Blood Demon Saber brought out an endless streak of blood red light; it was so sharp that even the void shattered in its presence.

Creak.

The Weapon Spirit crumbled without even having a chance to fight back at all.

Despite that, the speed of the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber did not diminish in the least bit! In fact, it got even faster!

"Not good…!" The faces of the group were stunned. Ru Wanshu even spat out a mouthful of his Essence Blood, hoping that the blood could draw in the righteous powers of the Heaven and Earth.

But, in the face of this weapon that was about to turn into a Supreme Grade Utmost Treasure, all efforts were futile.

"Everyone, I'm afraid that we'll all have to fall here!" Hu Qing was filled with immense regrets right now. If only they hadn't come forth due to curiosity, nothing like this would have happened then.

"Who determined that?"

At this moment, Lin Fan stood forth and raised his hand. He blocked the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber with his bare palms and gave it a simple grip. The saber then shattered and disintegrated into the air.

"Number sixty seven on the True Immortal Substitute Roll? Do you really think that you're number one? And, even if you're number one, your outcome will still be the same." Lin Fan said.

Eh?

The group looked at Lin Fan in astonishment. How could that Scarlet Blood Demon Saber break so easily? This was way too unreal!

Chapter 985: Cheap Excuses To Steal

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

"Who are you?" Xue Tianzi was alarmed as his face changed. To think that this unknown person would be able to break his saber gleam!

He knew of everyone on the True Immortal Substitute Roll. But, this person before his eyes? He truly had no idea who this was.

"If you're able to get out of my hands alive, you will be worthy of getting an answer to that question then." Lin Fan laughed out coldly.

Immemorial Ancient full cultivation state… This was a pretty decent cultivation state. After killing this guy, Lin Fan would be able to obtain a decent amount of experience points.

This was the type of world he truly wanted!

When Xue Tianzi heard those words, his heart was filled with rage instantly. A torrential Blood Qi rumbled out, within which, vengeful spirits howled and cried out. Even if one were to be tainted with a single drop of that blood, their skin would definitely rot. Even if it were an Immemorial Ancient full cultivation state being, they might not be able to defend against this easily.

"Do you really think that you're able to slay Your Tianzi just after breaking through a single saber gleam of mine? That has got to be the biggest dream you'll ever have!" Xue Tianzi bellowed out as a blood gleam appeared once more. A saber that was even more berserk than before slashed over.

Xue Tianzi was a genius of the Blood Demon Sect. All this while, he had been roaming outside and killing countless of living beings so as to steal away their Essence Blood and feed his Scarlet Blood Demon Saber.

This Demon Saber was a weapon that the Blood Demon Sect had crafted for Xue Tianzi. This was something that was created through the accumulation of countless of Legendary Items. At the moment of its formation, even a calamity had descended from the Heavens.

Therefore, it was an Utmost Treasure at birth, one that was stronger than most other Utmost Treasures out there.

After many years of hard work, Xue Tianzi was finally on the cusp of raising this to a Supreme Grade Utmost Treasure.

A single saber gleam from it could shine down on the entire world. That rumbling Blood Qi was something that would have the hearts of any opponent palpitating, making them unable to resist it at all.

But, in the eyes of Lin Fan, this Xue Tianzi was nothing more than a weak chicken.

Lin Fan stepped forth and raised a single palm.

BAM!

With that, the blood red saber gleam dissipated.

"You…!" Xue Tianzi was taken aback as his body shuddered. He churned his demonic powers as a torrential Demonic Qi burst forth from him.

Lin Fan took another step forth, and yet another palm was raised to suppress it.

Lin Fan placed his palm onto Xue Tianzi's forehead directly. Under the frightful expression of Xue Tianzi, he used some strength.

BAM!

'Ding…Congratulations on killing Xue Tianzi.'

'Ding…Experience Points +30,000,000.'

Lin Fan grabbed the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber in his hands. The Weapon Spirit within was struggling and fighting back furiously as a stream of Blood Qi penetrated his body.

"To think that even a measly Weapon Spirit would dare to resist. Courting death!" Lin Fan moved slightly and took down the Weapon Spirit of the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber immediately.

…

"Holy f*ck…!" Hu Qing and the others were just watching everything with their jaws wide open right now.

To think that the rank sixty seven of the True Immortal Substitute Roll, Xue Tianzi, would be defeated in just two moves! That was way too unreal wasn't it?

"Junior Brother Lin! This strength of yours… How could this be possible? But, you're not even known at all on the True Immortal Substitute Roll!" Su Hongchen gasped out.

"I've repressed my entire body's aura. Therefore, the True Immortal Substitute Roll would naturally not be able to detect me." Lin Fan replied.

With the cover of his System, it was only natural that Lin Fan's name would not appear on the True Immortal Substitute Roll.

As for Su Hongchen and the others, they were just completely horrified by this strength that Junior Brother Lin possessed. Heck, even those Remnants of the sect might not be able to be his match!

Only, the thing that bothered them was…why was Junior Brother Lin just an Inner Sect disciple?

Even though they were bothered by the thought, they did not dare to raise the question.

"Junior Brother Lin, that Scarlet Blood Demon Saber... Could I have a look at it?" Bing Linxing asked.

"Sure." Lin Fan nodded his head.

"Junior Brother Bing, you're really in luck and can be considered as having met with a lucky star! Junior Brother Bing makes use of weapons as his core. Now that he's able to make contact with a weapon that's poised to be a Supreme Grade Utmost Treasure, he will be able to comprehend the Laws within it. With that, his own cultivation state would be able to grow once more." Hu Qing explained.

Bing Linxing felt the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber and caressed the patterns on its surface carefully. These saber patterns possessed the utmost wisdom of the Heaven and Earth.

And just at this moment, a bright beam of light penetrated through this blood red light screen shrouding them. It descended from the sky as an extraordinary aura wrapped the group within it.

Under this brilliant beam of light, several figures appeared in the void.

When Lin Fan raised his head over, he realized that these few figures were truly exceptional. This was especially the case for one of the men standing up ahead. His aura was even more extraordinary.

"Who are they?" Lin Fan asked.

"That is a Remnant, Senior Brother Ling Wuzun. Beside him is Jian Fengchen." Su Hongchen explained a little nervously.

"Senior Brother Ling Wuzun, the demonic nature of that saber is extremely strong." Jian Fengchen glared straight at the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber in Bing Linxing's hands as his eyes shone with a look of greed.

That was a Quasi-Supreme Grade Utmost Treasure. It was a true piece of treasure!

If there were a little more effort put in that Quasi-Supreme Grade Utmost Treasure, it could definitely break through to become an Immortal Weapon!

By that time, it would have wondrous effects and possess an unrivaled might. Even now, it was something that was extremely eye-catching.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Ling Wuzun." Hu Qing looked at the people up in the void and bowed down.

As for Lin Fan, his heart was skipping with joy when he looked at Ling Wuzun. The strength of this man was pretty strong! He was quite ahead of Xue Tianzi!

Checking the True Immortal Substitute Roll, this man was ranked at number forty eight!

"How did you guys get your hands on that Scarlet Blood Demon Saber?" Ling Wuzun asked.

Hu Qing and the others exchanged glances with one another, "Reporting to senior brother, this is something that was obtained after Junior Brother Lin killed Xue Tianzi."

The moment Hu Qing and the others were finished with their words, Jian Fengchen's voice traveled over.

"Brazen! How dare you guys spout such lies in front of senior brother? That Xue Tianzi is ranked number sixty seven on the True Immortal Substitute Roll! He is not someone that you Inner Sect disciples are able to kill!" Jian Fengchen barked out.

The expression of Ling Wuzun changed slightly, evidently displeased as well. It was as though he was offended by the fact that these Inner Sect disciples would dare to lie to him.

At this moment, Lin Fan stood forth and took the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber in his hands from Bing Linxing.

"What do you guys want? Even if this demon saber was obtained by me, what has it got to do with you guys?" Lin Fan hated people who dared to act tough and cocky in front of his face.

What the f*ck was a Remnant? If he dared to utter any more crap, Lin Fan would beat him into a cripple!

"INSOLENT…!" Jian Fengchen was enraged right now. But, just as he was about to strike down, he was held back by Ling Wuzun, who then pointed at Lin Fan and asked with a frosty look on his face, "And who might you be?"

"Lin Fan." Lin Fan smiled out before glaring straight at the void and replying.

"Fine. That Scarlet Blood Demon Saber is a treasure of Xue Tianzi. The fact that you guys are able to obtain that Scarlet Blood Demon Saber is evident that this must be a trap laid down by Xue Tianzi. For the sake of the sect's safety, you guys have to hand it over. For the credit of handing it over to your seniors, you guys shall receive 100,000 Contribution Points." Ling Wuzun declared.

"Laid a trap? That Xue Tianzi was slain by me. What trap could he have laid?" Lin Fan said before turning around immediately. He did not want to waste time arguing with this Remnant or whatnot, "Come, let us continue exploring deeper in."

"Hmph!"

Ling Wuzun's face turned cold as he pointed out with his finger, bent on taking down Lin Fin instantly.

"Offending your seniors and absolutely unrepentant... There is an absolute need to be punished."

"Junior Brother Lin, watch out!" Su Hongchen's face was alarmed. She hadn't expected that Ling Wuzun would actually strike out!

She knew that this Scarlet Blood Demon Saber was a Quasi-Supreme Grade Utmost Treasure. Even if it were a Remnant, they might not be able to resist its allure.

And right now, it was evident that Ling Wuzun was just making use of cheap excuses to get at it.

"Courting death!"

Lin Fan's brows furrowed as his heart tightened up. Seemed like if he did not show some strength, these guys would really think that he was a pushover!

Chapter 986: Violent Whacking

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

When Ling Wuzun struck out, an extremely profound power converged onto a single finger of his that struck out at Lin Fan's back. This was evidently to get that Scarlet Blood Demon Saber in the latter's hands.

If this were anyone else, they would most likely be dead right here. But, since this was Lin Fan, he was undoubtedly just courting death.

Lin Fan turned around and sliced out with the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber. A torrential Blood Qi gushed out from it, intertwining into a straight line that attacked out at Ling Wuzun.

"Junior brother, don't be rash now!" When Su Hongchen caught sight of this scene, she yelped out in shock. She hadn't expected that things would come to this.

This Ling Wuzun here was a Remnant! Not only that, his cultivation was extremely profound! Even that Xue Tianzi wouldn't be a match for him!

"Hmph! To think that a single Inner Sect disciple would dare to strike out at me. I wonder who gave you those guts." Ling Wuzun was enraged right now. As he slapped out with a single palm strike, it seemed as though the surrounding void was crushed down by some immense pressure, breaking apart bit by bit.

The surrounding disciples exclaimed out.

"Senior Brother Ling's going at it for real right now! Seems like that fella is about to get crippled!"

"I'm sure senior brother isn't going to take his life. However, he will definitely make sure that he teaches that guy how to be a proper disciple."

"The demonic nature of that Scarlet Blood Demon Saber is immense. As an Inner Sect disciple, what capabilities does he even have to be able to withstand its demonic nature? If that thing is left in his hands, the Heaven and Earth Sect will definitely be filled with a bloodthirsty maniac for sure!" Jian Fengchen said.

The strength of Ling Wuzun was something that Lin Fan had total disregard for. This cultivation state of his wasn't even as strong as those people that Lin Fan had met back in the secret ground eleven years ago.

Clang!

Even though this Scarlet Blood Demon Saber was a treasure of Xue Tianzi and had a direct connection with him, ever since Lin Fan killed him, it had already been subdued in the latter's hands.

'Huh?!'

This Ling Wuzun had truly overestimated his worth. He thought that Lin Fan's strength would amount to nothing much. But, when that saber gleam actually clashed with his palm, his face changed entirely.

'How could this be?'

Everything in its path withered and died, leaving destruction in its wake. The saber gleam so sharp that it seemed as if nothing could stand in its way. Even that palm of Ling Wuzun was sliced apart by Lin Fan.

Ling Wuzun's pupils dilated as the blood red gleam approached him. At the same time, that extremely sharp Saber Qi slashed out at him as well. Before the saber had even reached him, the Saber Qi had already arrived.

When this extremely sharp Saber Qi sliced out on Ling Wuzun's face, it stung as though his skin was torn apart.

Lin Fan's lips curled into a cold grin. An existence as such was something he could take down with the back of his hands.

When Hu Qing caught sight of this, he was absolutely alarmed. It was as though he could not even begin to imagine the consequences of his Junior Brother Lin if he killed this Ling Wuzun.

"Junior Brother Lin, stop it…!" Hu Qing yelled.

Shing!

By the time Ling Wuzun reacted to it, the saber gleam had already arrived at his throat.

That blood red saber gleam was extremely cold and bone chilling. Through it, Ling Wuzun could feel the cold blooded intent behind it.

Gulp!

Ling Wuzun's throat bobbed up and down as a single bead of sweat flowed down his forehead ever so slowly.

He was starting to feel fear in his heart right now.

When Jian Fengchen caught sight of this, his face was drained of color as well. He hadn't expected that Senior Brother Ling would not be a match for this fella. And not only that, the other party had even stuck a saber gleam right at this throat!

"What are you trying to do? This is Remnant Senior Brother Ling! As an Inner Sect disciple, what are you trying to do?" Jian Fengchen barked out with all the courage he could muster.

"Hmm?" Lin Fan's brows furrowed as he shot a single glance over at Jian Fengchen.

Startled, Jian Fengchen stumbled back a few steps in fear. In his eyes, this man before him was way too horrifying.

All the other surrounding disciples were completely filled with fright right now as well, totally unable to believe in the scene before them.

Senior Brother Ling was a Remnant! How in the world could he be defeated this easily?

"You…!"

At this moment, Ling Wuzun wanted to speak up. However, he was cut short by Lin Fan.

"Don't speak now." Lin Fan said.

Hu Qing rushed up immediately and came beside Lin Fan.

"Junior Brother Lin, you mustn't kill him! Otherwise, things will be real bad!" Hu Qing told him.

"Why now? Could something big happen out of me killing him?" Lin Fan chuckled out.

"Junior Brother Lin, the sect rules decree that as long as it is a fellow disciple, you must never harm his or her life. If you have some life and death hatred, you can settle it through a duel as long as things don't get lethal." Hu Qing replied.

"Oh, I see. So, that's the way it is." Lin Fan nodded his head. Now, this was interesting.

"What are you thinking of doing?" Ling Wuzun's face was drained of color as his expression tightened up.

If there were no one surrounding them right now, Lin Fan would have just killed this fella decisively. But right now, the situation was a little troublesome.

"Number forty eight on the True Immortal Substitute Roll, yet that's all you amount to." Lin Fan laughed out coldly. He then slapped out furiously towards Ling Wuzun with a single palm.

BAM!

"You'd dare?" Ling Wuzun hadn't expected that the other party would dare to strike at him.

"What would I not dare? Since a fella like you dares to snatch the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber, you were just courting death to begin with." Raising his leg swiftly, Lin Fan swung it out at Ling Wuzun's face instantly.

With that, a series of tragic cries rang out.

When the surrounding disciples caught sight of this scene, their faces turned pale with fright. Was this guy seeking death?!

This person before them was a Remnant! If he dared to treat the other party as such, wasn't he afraid of the consequences it might bring forth?

Even though Ling Wuzun was the weakest out of all the Remnants out there, he was still a Remnant no matter what! Compared to those Inner Sect disciples, he was way stronger!

Anyone who was able to get into the True Immortal Substitute Roll was a genius amongst geniuses. These were not individuals that ordinary people could hope to compare with.

Even if it were Hu Qing combined with every single other disciple present, they were still no match for Ling Wuzun.

And, the only reason why Lin Fan was able to take down the other party was that his own strength had already reached an extremely formidable state.

If even someone of a True Immortal state could be defeated by Lin Fan, it was needless to talk about all these other people who were just skirting around the boundaries of Immemorial Ancient state.

Only, there was one person on that True Immortal Substitute Roll that had Lin Fan feeling extremely wary towards. And that was the number one on the roll, Qin Shengjun.

But, in the past eleven years when Lin Fan had been in the Endless Mainland, that Qin Shengjun had long broken through, and was no longer on this True Immortal Substitute Roll.

Thus, Lin Fan was pretty curious as to the sort of existence that Qin Shengjun would be right now.

As for the current number one of the True Immortal Substitute Roll, it wasn't someone of the Heaven and Earth Sect. That person belonged to some other sect.

If there were a chance, Lin Fan would definitely love to exchange blows with someone like that.

However, he did not know how far apart the difference between this person and Qin Shengjun would be.

…

At this moment, Lin Fan did not hesitate as he trampled on Ling Wuzun's face till it was entirely swollen before he relented.

"Junior Brother Lin, that's about enough…" When Hu Qing caught sight of that once haughty looking Ling Wuzun, he could not help but breathe in a mouthful of cold air.

Just what sort of a background did this Junior Brother Lin hail from? To think that he would be this overbearing! Wasn't he afraid that Ling Wuzun would find trouble for him after they headed back?

However, Hu Qing did not feel that this would cause much of a ruckus back in the sect. At the same time, this Ling Wuzun knew that he was no match for Junior Brother Lin as well. Therefore, he should not seek out needless trouble for himself.

Only, one must still always be on guard at all times. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good to suffer a disadvantage all for nothing.

"Yes. Let's head back then."

This time around, Lin Fan had gained quite a bit from this Earth Abyssal Demon Cave, and felt that it was about time to leave as well.

He then cast a last glance at that Ling Wuzun, who was walloped so badly he did not even look human anymore, and smirked out coldly.

Chapter 987: Reverting To His Old Trade

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

In the Earth Abyssal Demon Cave expedition this time around, the rewards obtained were pretty decent. This was especially the case for Hu Qing and the others, who had obtained quite a few cores. For them, this was a decent fortune that was gained.

Out of everything, the most surprising reward was the Quasi-Supreme Grade Utmost Treasure Scarlet Blood Demon Saber.

If they were to exchange that saber for Contribution Points back in the sect, that would be an astronomical sum to be gained.

In fact, there would be many strong disciples or even elders who would come forth and try to exchange for this Scarlet Blood Demon Saber with all sorts of medicines and pills.

"For the trip to the Earth Abyssal Demon Cave this time around, it is really all thanks to Junior Brother Lin!" Su Hongchen said.

"That's right! If not for Junior Brother Lin, we might have already died within there!" When Hu Qing thought of a certain event, he felt chills traveling down his spine despite it having passed.

Those Earth Demons were crueler than anything else. Even with his strength as an Immemorial Ancient state being, he was left with no other way out than death in face of those Earth Demons.

Not only would those Earth Demons shred his body to pieces, they would even slurp up his fresh blood. The very thought of that was extremely horrifying.

Lin Fan gave a calm smile. This feeling of being taken as a Messiah by the masses was simply way too pleasurable!

"It's nothing much. We are all from the same sect, and if we can take care of one another, we naturally should." Lin Fan waved his hands off dismissively while saying coolly.

Right now, the group was looking at Lin Fan with a different eye. After all, in this world, power reigned supreme. For someone like Junior Brother Lin being so polite and courteous to them even despite being this strong was something that was extremely touching.

"However, Junior Brother Lin, you still have to be careful. I don't suppose that Ling Wuzun is going to let things go just like this." Hu Qing said worriedly.

"It's alright. If the soldiers come, fight them…If the river floods, the earth will stop it. If they want to lose face even back in the sect, they can feel free to come at me by all means." Lin Fan said while chuckling.

Su Hongchen and the others thought about it for a moment. Even though they were worried in their hearts, since Junior Brother Lin did not put it to heart, they naturally did not continue with that topic.

"I'll head back first." Lin Fan cupped his fists towards everyone. Right now, he had to head back and fuse this Scarlet Blood Demon Saber into his own treasures.

The Eternal Axe was already a Legendary Weapon right now. Based on the grading of the Endless Mainland, it could even be considered as an Immortal Weapon.

However, this Immortal Weapon wasn't exactly perfect just yet. After all, back in the Ancient Saint World, the Laws of the Heaven and Earth were not fully refined just yet. It was a far cry compared to this Endless Mainland. Therefore, Lin Fan had to continue to put some work into his Eternal Axe.

…

After Lin Fan's departure, Hu Qing spoke up, "Let us go exchange these cores for Contribution Points. Junior Sister Hongchen will then send them over to Junior Brother Lin."

"Alright! Even though these Contribution Points may not be enough to satisfy Junior Brother Lin's standards, he has just entered the sect after all. There are definitely some places where he could still make use of some Contribution Points." Su Hongchen replied.

…

Saint Devil Peak…

When Lin Fan landed, he realized that Li Qing was already waiting at the entrance.

Li Qing was an Outer Sect disciple while Lin Fan was an Inner Sect disciple. When he met Lin Fan, he naturally had to address him as senior brother.

"Senior Brother Lin, you've returned!" The moment Li Qing caught sight of Lin Fan, he rushed up to greet immediately.

"What's up?" Lin Fan looked at Li Qing carefully, not knowing what this was all about. But, when he caught sight of the things in the latter's hands, he let out a look of surprise.

Could he be here to deliver items this time around?

"Senior Brother Lin, this is a 'Five Elements Pill' here for the Five Elements Sword Wills. With this, you will be able to learn it with only half the effort." Li Qing explained.

Lin Fan took the pill over in his hands with some suspicion. He was an Inner Sect disciple. How could there be so many benefits?

"This is also welfare from the sect?" Lin Fan asked.

Li Qing nodded his head, "That's right. You're an Inner Sect disciple, senior brother. From time to time, you will receive welfare!"

Lin Fan patted down on Li Qing's shoulder, "Don't lie to me, alright? I have a rough idea what an Inner Sect disciple is all about now. There are still Remnants above me."

Li Qing's face changed slightly before he chuckled out, "Senior Brother Lin, actually, your position should have been as a Remnant. However, there are only ten seats available for Remnants, and there was no availability. Therefore, even though you're an Inner Sect disciple, you will still receive the same treatment as Remnants should."

"Oh, so that's the case. I see." When Lin Fan observed Li Qing's expression, he kind of bought it. Otherwise, who would be silly to such an extent that they would keep sending him so much good stuff?

"Thank you for the troubles then, Junior Brother Li." Lin Fan replied.

"It's no trouble! No trouble at all! If there's nothing else, your junior brother will take his leave first." Li Qing waved his hand away at Lin Fan before leaving the Saint Devil Peak.

Lin Fan held the pill in his hand. Right now, the Five Elements Sword Wills had long been fused by him. Therefore, he naturally had no use for such booster pills anymore.

However, popping it down would still gain him quite a bit of experience points nevertheless.

Lin Fan's heart leaped with joy as he tossed the pill into his mouth.

'Ding…Experience Points +3,000,000.'

Popping pills for experience points growth, this was something that Lin Fan hasn't experienced for the longest time now. It was because back in the Ancient Saint World, pills could barely give him any experience points.

But right now, the feeling of having his experience points soar through pills was one that was akin to ascending to the Heavens.

…

Within the peak…

Lin Fan sat down cross-legged and took out the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber immediately, then took out the Eternal Axe.

The Heaven and Earth Smelt came out next.

BOOM!

The Heaven and Earth Smelt was Lin Fan's most tyrannical treasure. A perfect combination of both offense and defense, this was something that was purely overpowered.

"This Eternal Axe could be considered as a Lower Grade Immortal Weapon. However, because the Laws of the Immortal Weapon aren't fully refined, its powers are less than one percent of a normal Lower Grade Immortal Weapon."

Refine!

Lin Fan tossed the Eternal Axe and the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber into the Heaven and Earth Smelt.

Craft.

Right now, Lin Fan's proficiency in crafting weapons was at a pinnacle state, allowing him to draw out the essence of the Scarlet Blood Demon Saber into the Eternal Axe.

Shing!

The smelt vibrated slightly.

The Eternal Axe started giving off a slight aura of an Immortal Weapon. However, because it was in the Heaven and Earth Smelt, the aura naturally did not leak out at all.

'Ding…Congratulations on refining success.'

Lin Fan took out the Eternal Axe as his lips curled into a look of satisfaction. As for that Scarlet Blood Demon Saber, the only thing left of it was some scrap debris. It had basically no function left any longer.

Eternal Axe.

Grade: Lower Grade Immortal Weapon.

Right now, some of the treasures he had with him, such as the Demon City and others, could not evolve at all due to lack of materials.

However, he knew that he could go searching for some Legendary Items if he had the chance, so that he could raise the levels of all the treasures he had on him.

By that time, he would truly be domineering.

…

Poor! Way too poor!

Lin Fan knew that he was really poor right now. There weren't many things he could show off from his inventory right now. He did not have any pills or any Legendary Items that were crafted out.

As for those Shengyang Pills, ever since he arrived at this place, there was practically no f*cking use of them anymore.

Those Shengyang Pills might have been some decent items back in the Ancient Saint World. But ever since he arrived at this Endless Mainland, it had turned into some inferior product.

This was angry-worthy, rage-probable, and tears-inducing all at the same time.

If he wanted to raise his cultivation state, he only had two goals right now.

First: Killing powerful beings.

Second: Popping these elixirs.

At this moment, Lin Fan entered a state of deep thought. Seemed like he had to go out and explore for a bit. Either that, or he would have to go back to his old trade.

Eventually, Lin Fan thought it through hard and deep.

Seemed like the best way was still for him to revert to his old trade.

Chapter 988: Not A Single Believer

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

The trip to the Earth Abyssal Demon Cave did not cause much of a huge stir. Within the sect, Lin Fan did not face any acts of vengeance from Ling Wuzun either.

However, the changes to the True Immortal Substitute Roll did rouse some attention of the masses.

Somehow, Xue Tianzi had vanished from the roll entirely.

For such a thing to happen, there could only be two possible explanations. The first was that Xue Tianzi had turned into a True Immortal, and the second was that he had fallen.

But naturally, there was no chance for the first situation to happen.

Therefore, he could have only fallen. Otherwise, there was truly no other way to go about this.

Initially, Ling Wuzun had wanted to cause trouble for Lin Fan. But after he returned and thought about it carefully, he started realizing just how horrifying everything had been.

For him to be defeated in the hands of this disciple naturally mean that his strength was not enough to compete with the other party. If he were to truly insist on dueling it out with the other party, his outcome might not be any good.

Even though he was a Remnant, there were still internal strife and politics amongst the various Remnants. Furthermore, with his strength, he was the weakest out of all the Remnants.

However, there was a disciple who had turned into a Remnant recently. This allowed him to be second from the last, which had him heave out a sigh of relief.

Only, this was a vengeance that he would definitely seek out one day. He was just waiting for the opportune time.

…

Lin Fan walked around the sect observing everything that was happening, trying to find a path to success.

Within the sect, there was also a place that was similar to a marketplace. There were many disciples that were conducting business here.

"Calamity Breaking Pill! There's only a single one here and it costs just 10,000 Contribution Points! Be it walking by or passing by, you must not miss this!"

"Old Ancient God Guard Shard! Costs only 100,000 Contribution Points!"

Lin Fan's face might have been expressionless, but a thought was forming in his mind.

'Yours Truly was proficient in cultivating pills and crafting weapons. If he were to revert to his old trade, he would definitely have a bright future in it. Those Contribution Points obtained might be able to get him some decent exchanges back in the sect.

Furthermore, there were some extremely powerful mystic skills of the martial arts that required Contribution Points to be exchanged for.

That Five Elements Sword Will from earlier on had already given Lin Fan a taste of its wondrous effects, raising his personal Sword Will's cultivation.

Su Hongchen had sent over 3,000 Contribution Points for Lin Fan. Those were exchanged for with the cores of the Earth Demons that were killed in the Earth Abyssal Demon Cave.

Initially, Lin Fan had not wanted to take them. But eventually, he could only accept them.

"Take a look and slowly shop! Homegrown herbs here that could be used to cultivate all sorts of high grade pills!" There was a myriad of herbs that were displayed before a disciple.

These herbs were no high-end stuff. But, they could cultivate out pills that were sought after by many disciples.

"How much are you selling these herbs for?" After observing for quite some time, Lin Fan headed forth and asked.

"Senior brother there, which type do you require?" Even after hawking here for a long time, no disciples were coming forth to purchase them from this disciple. Therefore, he was naturally getting flustered.

His cultivation state wasn't high, and with that, he did not dare to head out to dangerous secret grounds. He could only grow some herbs for himself from time to time and accumulate some Contribution Points with them in order to exchange for pills and martial arts mystic skills.

"Everything."

When he heard Lin Fan's words, his eyes shone with a glimmer. He was going to be rich now!

"Senior brother there! You only need 5,000 Contribution Points to take all of them home!" The disciple chuckled out.

Lin Fan took a quick glance. Bloody hell! He didn't have enough Contribution Points!

"3,000 or no deal." Lin Fan replied.

"Ah! Senior brother! How can you do that! Even if you're trying to slash the price, isn't that a little too much?"

"If it doesn't work, then forget it. I'll just look around more." Lin Fan had no time to waste with nonsense right now! 3,000 Contribution Points was his entire life savings! Furthermore, he would never try to slash the price.

Noticing that Lin Fan was about to leave, the disciple got nervous. He then let out a pained expression, "Senior brother! Please hold your steps! 3,000, so be it!"

From his token, Lin Fan transferred all the 3,000 Contribution Points and kept the bunch of herbs.

After Lin Fan's departure, the disciple broke out into a grin.

"Oh! I've done it now! I've earned big! Who knew that selling herbs would be this profitable!"

He had spent 100 Contribution Points purchasing the seeds and cultivating them patiently for a short period of time. Even though time had been wasted, the returns were just exhilarating!

At a place where no one else was present…

Lin Fan took out the herbs; there were a total of twenty herbs.

'Ding…Discovered Mysterious Light Grass.'

'Ding…Discovered Spirit Hell Grass.'

…

At this moment, Lin Fan spread out his fingers and wrung his wrist slightly. A ball of flames burst forth as he tossed all the herbs within it.

No other Pill Cultivation Master could cultivate pills like this. But for Lin Fan, his mastery of cultivating pills had already been perfected. As such, cultivating these pills was something that could be done by him with extreme ease.

Pills Through Thought…

The medicinal powers of the herbs gathered within the flames as the impurities were all purged out, leaving only the essences.

Being able to cultivate out pills with a flip of his hands, furthermore at a success rate of hundred percent… If this were known by anyone else, it would be too horrifying for them.

'Ding…Congratulations on cultivating Mixed Yuan Powers Pill.'

'Mixed Yuan Powers Pill: Able to recover powers within a single breath.'

'Ding…Congratulations on cultivating Damage Leaving Pill.'

'Damage Leaving Pill: No matter how severe the injuries, one will be able to recover from it.'

Cultivating pills of this sort was something that Lin Fan had expected long ago.

These herbs were not of particularly excellent quality. For them to be able to create pills of this level was something that could only be described as heaven revolting.

If it were anyone else, they might only be able to cultivate out some simpler pills.

At the ends of the marketplace…

Lin Fan brought over a random table and placed his pills on it before shouting out and advertising.

"Be it walking by or passing by, you must not miss this! Selling pills that can safeguard your life! Once you have these pills with you, even your Mommy doesn't have to worry about you roaming out in the world!"

Lin Fan yelled at the top of his voice.

Amongst the different pills, those that could occasionally raise one's strength were the most popular. However, those that could recover up powers or injuries were unusually welcome as well.

This single shout of Lin Fan attracted quite a lot of attention from the masses.

"What are those pills? The medicinal powers seem to be extremely thick!" Some of the disciples started gathering over.

However, they had never seen these pills before in their lives. Therefore, they were naturally curious towards it.

Lin Fan took the Mixed Yuan Powers Pill in his hands and started bragging about it, "This is a pill that can help you recover your powers within a single breath! Think about it! If you guys were out there meeting with some enemies that were on equal grounds with you, and the victory could not be decided in a single instant, who do you guys think will stand victorious at the end of it all?"

The surrounding disciples replied without even having to think about it, "Of course the side with a deeper depth of powers!"

"That's right! This fellow brother here has got it right! As long as you have this pill, you will definitely be able to recover your powers in a single breath!" Lin Fan waved the pill in his hands.

"What about that pill over there?" The disciples asked.

"Oho! That is one hell of an incredible pill! It's called the Damage Leaving Pill! No matter how severe your injuries are, as long as you have a single breath left, you will be able to recover from it! Don't you guys think that this pill is extremely sick?" Lin Fan praised his own pill without holding back at all.

However, everything that Lin Fan had just said did not seem too believable to the disciples who were present.

"How could such pills exist? Well, I do know of Mixed Yuan Powers Pills, but Damage Leaving Pills? That sounds way too terrifying! If it were truly as you have said, it could even be considered as an Immortal Pill!"

"That's right! Only Immortal Pills could provide effects as such! However, there are no Laws of the Immortal Dao within these pills of yours!"

At this moment, the surrounding disciples started discussing amongst themselves.

None of them would believe a word that Lin Fan said.

Right now, Lin Fan was flustered. Bloody hell! Was he truly not going to be able to sell everything out?

Chapter 989: Witness the Moment of Miracle

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

"Cough, cough!"

"I am an Inner Sect disciple! My credibility is assured, and there's definitely no falsehoods here! If there's anything that's fake about these two types of pills, I would definitely pay ten for every fake one!" Lin Fan yelled out.

"Then, how many Contribution Points do you require for them?" Some of the disciples did have some intent towards them.

"One for 50,000 Contribution Points! Not expensive at all!" Lin Fan replied.

There were a total of 10 pills here. With 50,000 a pop, he would be able to gain 500,000 Contribution Points if he could sell them all.

This was not an exorbitant price. Lin Fan had checked around as well; this was the market price.

But, when the price came out, some of the disciples made way. To think that he would say that this wasn't expensive at all! This price was practically sky high!

"Huehue. The price aside first, it's hard to tell if it's real or fake." A man wearing green robes walked over.

When the surrounding disciples caught sight of who it was, they involuntarily made a path for him as they started discussing in hushed whispers.

"That's Nan Gongming!"

"Nan Gongming! The one who's titled as the Fraud Fighter amongst the Inner Sect disciples!"

When Nan Gongming came before Lin Fan, he looked at the pills that were displayed on the table, "You claim that these pills have such miraculous effects. But, do you know of the Immortal Pill within the sect, the Endless Shennong Pill?"

The Endless Shennong Pill could be considered as a godly item for healing. No matter how severe one's injuries were, they would be able to recover within the time of a single joss stick.

If one wanted to exchange for an Immortal Pill of that sort, they would require 100,000 Contribution Points.

And, the price that Lin Fan had declared right now was half the price of the Endless Shennong Pill. Yet, the effects he boasted of were way more powerful than the Endless Shennong Pill.

The moment the surrounding disciples heard of Nan Gongming's question, all of them started discussing in hushed whispers.

"That's right! The effects of that godly healing item within the sect, the Endless Shennong Pill, are similar to this pill right here. It is an Immortal Pill!"

"I've had the affinity to come across that pill once in my life. There were traces of the Laws of the Immortal Dao within the pill itself. Just by sniffing in the aroma, I could already feel myself being revitalized mentally. That's something that this Damage Leaving Pill could not hope to compare with!"

"Seems like this pill must definitely be a fake then!"

"Nan Gongming is famous for exposing frauds! Do you know how many frauds and their ploys he has ruined so far?"

…

At this moment, Lin Fan was about to explode.

Bloody hell! Did this bunch of fellas really think that Yours Truly was someone who would sell fake pills?

That was way too shitty of a situation, wasn't it?!

"I don't know anything about that Endless Shennong Pill that you speak of. However, I do know that my pills possess such effects." Lin Fan looked at Nan Gongming while saying.

"Huehue. I don't believe it." Nan Gongming shook his head as his eyes shone with a firm disbelief in them, "Other than the fact that the medicinal aura of your pills is slightly stronger, what other trademark characteristics of Immortal Pills do they possess?"

"Every single Immortal Pill possesses the Laws of the Immortal Dao. That is something that masters have created by collecting countless precious and valuable herbs. As for these pills of yours, there's no way they could be real. Therefore, I hope that you can just leave this place as soon as possible."

"In this place, as long as Nan Gongming is around, no fraudster will be able to get away with their deception!" Nan Gongming declared loudly with a harsh tone as though he was extremely serious right now.

Piak! Piak! Piak!

"Well said!"

"Senior Brother Nan is indeed the beacon of light in our hearts!"

"If these pills were truly as miraculous as you've made them out to be, how could they be sold here?"

The surrounding disciples started applauding loudly. They were thoroughly impressed with Nan Gongming. In this place, as long as there were disciples who were selling fake items, Nan Gongming would definitely make an appearance.

Using that professional judgment and knowledge of his, he would expose all the mistruths within the 'truths'.

At this moment, Nan Gongming looked over at Lin Fan. That expression of his was as though he was just waiting for this disciple to refute him.

On the other side, Lin Fan was getting a little exasperated. Yours Truly was just trying to sell some pills and get some Contribution Points to make a living!

They refused to believe in the wonders of Yours Truly's pills?

Fine! Since that was the case, he would just have to make them believe it.

"Your name is Nan Gongming, right?" Lin Fan asked.

"That's right. I am an Inner Sect disciple, Nan Gongming." Nan Gongming glared straight at Lin Fan while saying.

"Step forward a little." Lin Fan replied.

Nan Gongming did not know what this fella was trying to achieve with this. Thereafter, he stood before Lin Fan, "What are you trying to do? Has your shame of being exposed by me turned into rage?"

Lin Fan looked around at the surrounding masses, "Everyone, since you guys don't believe in me, I just have to show you guys a demonstration of its effects."

The surrounding disciples did not catch Lin Fan's drift at all. But at this moment, something that shocked everyone happened.

Bam!

Lin Fan kicked out at Nan Gongming's crotch immediately.

It seemed as though time had stopped completely at this instant.

"You…!" Nan Gongming looked at Lin Fan in disbelief. A sensation of pain then began to surge up as a series of wild howls rushed out of his throat.

Lin Fan did not say anything more as he just raised his fists and sent out a flurry of fists to wallop Nan Gongming to a pulp.

'You guys can choose not to believe, fine! But right now, Yours Truly is going to prove to you guys in your faces the tyrannical nature of Yours Truly's pills!'

"B-beaten! Someone is being beaten up over here!"

"Because Senior Brother Nan exposed the other party's fake pills, his shame has turned into rage as he is walloping out at Senior Brother Nan right now!"

"But, Senior Brother Nan's strength is not weak at all! How come he is unable to fight back at all!"

Nan Gongming was absolutely stupefied right now. He hadn't expected that things would turn out as such!

He wanted to retaliate, but he realized all of a sudden that he had no way of fighting back at all!

'Urgh!'

A punch flew out.

A stream of blood sprayed out into the air.

The surrounding disciples were all just retreating as far as they could right now. At the same time, some of them started yelling out in shock.

"Someone is being murdered right here! Can anyone come and help?"

"Senior Brother Nan is going to be killed by the other party!"

Some of the people who had no idea what was going on over here rushed over because of the commotion that was being caused. But when they arrived at this place and saw that Nan Gongming was being trampled down and walloped by a disciple, they exclaimed in shock.

"Stop that! You can't fight anymore! Senior Brother Nan's aura is getting weaker by the moment!"

"Are you really intent on murdering someone? This is our sect! You can't do that in here!"

…

Right now, Lin Fan was getting extremely fluid with his punches.

Fist after fist, they rained down on Nan Gongming's body.

As for Nan Gongming, all he could do was lie there while his eyes shone with a look of despair. He felt that death was approaching him by the second, as though he could pass away at any moment now.

"NOOOOOO…!" Nan Gongming screamed out in his heart. However, his aura was being lost out into the surroundings extremely quickly right now.

Lin Fan inhaled a deep breath before he came down with an ultimate blow.

Initially, he had not thought of any way to prove his pills. But, ever since this Nan Gongming had appeared, Lin Fan had finally thought of it.

Wouldn't it be easy if he could just whack someone half to death?

"Huff!"

Finally, Lin Fan came to a stop. He then looked at Nan Gongming, who was lying on the ground motionlessly, looking as though he was hanging on his very last thread of life.

The surrounding disciples gasped out in horror as they retreated even further back.

Each and every one of them let out a frightened look as though they were really afraid that this guy might do the same to them as he did to Nan Gongming if he were displeased with them.

Lin Fan relaxed with his breathing before raising his hand, "Alright, everyone here! Watch properly now! Next up, it is time to witness the moment of miracle."

"Whether or not the Damage Leaving Pill possesses the effects I claim for it to have will depend on this moment entirely!"

At this moment, Lin Fan took up a single pill, and after prying Nan Gongming's mouth open, he pushed it in.

"All of you watch closely right now." Lin Fan crossed his arms and waited patiently.

The surrounding disciples watched with skepticism. They did not know what was going to happen.

Chapter 990: The Path of Righteousness

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

In order to prove the awesomeness of his pills, Lin Fan was giving it his all as well.

As for this Nan Gongming, he could only be considered to be unlucky to have received this round of beating. Wanting to stand up for others without any true strength? That was certainly a recipe for disaster.

The surrounding disciples watched the scene unfold with curiosity.

Nan Gongming was convulsing while spitting out blood from his mouth. It was an extremely horrifying sight to behold.

If this were to continue on, Nan Gongming would definitely die.

But right at this moment, something that stunned the masses happened.

They did not know what was going on, but a ball of light burst forth from Nan Gongming's body all of a sudden. The light was extremely soothing, following which, the areas where he was injured started recovering gradually.

"Eh? What's going on here?"

Nan Gongming, who was initially lying still like a dead dog, bolted up to stand all of a sudden. He then looked left and right; however, he could not tell of any issues at all!

At this moment, it was as though Nan Gongming had suddenly recalled that he was walloped by someone to the brink of death.

When his gaze landed on Lin Fan, Nan Gongming was enraged, "It's you…!"

But, that rage did not last for even a single second when Nan Gongming's expression changed. His face was then filled with shock.

"Weren't you about to kill me earlier on?" Nan Gongming exclaimed out. But, after checking himself thoroughly, he realized that there were no wounds on his body at all! There was nothing wrong at all!

The surrounding disciples were equally dumbfounded.

Just what in the world was going on right now?

"Holy f*ck! Wasn't Senior Brother Nan on the brink of death just now? How has he recovered completely all of a sudden!?"

"I have no idea! But, this person had fed Senior Brother Nan that Damage Leaving Pill or something, and he has now recovered!"

"Immortal Pill! Is that truly an Immortal Pill?"

"That is something that's even more incredible than Immortal Pills! Even the Endless Shennong Pill requires a joss stick's worth of time in order to recover! And, there's also no way one could recover as though they were in the complete pink of health as well!"

Lin Fan yelled out at this moment, "Alright! Everyone has seen the effects for yourselves now! There are still four more of these Damage Leaving Pills, and five of those Mixed Yuan Powers Pill! If you have the need for them, come and order now!"

"All of these are lifesaving elixirs! Don't miss it now! If you miss it, there won't be any left!"

Lin Fan promoted his pills heavily. If he did not show some stuff, it truly would not have worked.

At this moment, the surrounding disciples were finally moved.

Initially, they had truly not believed in him. But right now, they realized that these pills were just simply godly!

"Give me one of that!" An Inner Sect disciple yelled out. Having a pill as such was as good as having another life altogether!

If he were to have to fight with others or explore any secret grounds in the future, this would definitely keep him safer by a huge margin!

"Both types of pills! I want one of each!"

"I want the Damage Leaving Pill!"

"I want the Mixed Yuan Powers Pill!"

All of a sudden, all the disciples had Lin Fan drowned.

Nan Gongming was just staring at everything blankly with a wide opened jaw. He was then pushed outside by the surrounding disciples.

He felt that there was truly something not right about this situation here.

Right now, it was as though he was completely fine!

He recalled being walloped cruelly by the other party initially.

But, despite having endured that round of beating, there wasn't even a single bit of injury on his body at this point!

So…could that still be considered as being whacked by the other party?

At this moment, Nan Gongming went deep into his thoughts. He felt that this was an issue he would have to think long and hard about.

…

At this moment, there were simply way so many people trying to make purchase that Lin Fan was getting overwhelmed.

"There are too many people! The pills are limited! Alright, I'm going to start auctioning now! The first Damage Leaving Pill will go at a starting price of 50,000 Contribution Points!"

"Make it 51,000!"

"I'll make it 52,000…!"

"60,000…!"

At this moment, the entire place was bustling with noise. Some of the surrounding disciples who were setting up their own stalls nearby looked at Lin Fan dumbfounded. To think that he could bloody do it like that as well!

After he had auctioned out the pills, Lin Fan realized that he had 800,000 Contribution Points!

He was rich now!

To think that he could have sold a few ordinary pills for 800,000 Contribution Points! Lin Fan felt that there was a huge potential in this trade.

As for those disciples who had not managed to get any pills, their faces were filled with disappointment.

Some of them were downright poor. When they looked at others splurging their Contribution Points to buy those pills, they could only watch miserably.

Even though the path of cultivation was one that depended on strength entirely, it was still pretty depressing when one caught sight of others with an immense amount of wealth at times.

Lin Fan left the marketplace, and was about to head to the sect area to check if there were any good items up for exchange. But at this moment, he discovered that Nan Gongming was following behind him!

"What do you want?" Lin Fan turned around asking.

Nan Gongming looked at Lin Fan. That disposition of righteousness and justice that he had earlier on was completely gone right now. Replacing it was a meek and weak look.

The holy Fraud Fighter, Nan Gongming, could have been considered to have failed entirely this time around.

Taking in a deep breath, Nan Gongming said, "I wish to work with you."

"What do you mean work with me?" Lin Fan asked in bewilderment. What was there to work with about this? He did not understand.

"I know that you want to sell pills. But, these pills of yours would not be believed by everyone. I'm willing to be the test subject for it." Nan Gongming replied.

Lin Fan froze up. What in the world was this fella talking about? He wanted to be the test subject?

This was pretty outrageous, wasn't it?

However, in Lin Fan's opinion, this guy's words weren't lacking merit either.

The pills that he cultivated were truly a far cry in comparison with the other pills available here.

Those pills that he had earlier on could only be considered as normal pills that did not have any particularly outstanding effects. But, to think that in the eyes of these people, they would all be Immortal Pills! How was Lin Fan to mother*cking explain that?

Lin Fan could definitely create true Immortal Pills. He would just require godly herbs, that was all.

But, to think that these pills that he had created could give the Immortal Pills here a round for their money in the eyes of these disciples. Without a doubt, it was only natural for them to assume that any pills with such effects could be considered as Immortal Pills then.

However, these pills of his did not possess any Laws of the Immortal Dao. That would make it seem too fake as well.

But, if he were to have a test subject around, that would make things way, way simpler!

"How much Contribution Points do you want for it?" Lin Fan asked.

Nan Gongming thought about it for a moment before replying, "5,000 Contribution Points per day."

"Alright, deal." Lin Fan nodded his head.

Given the speed at which Lin Fan earned Contribution Points right now, 5,000 Contribution Points were something he could afford with ease.

The moment Nan Gongming heard Lin Fan agreeing to it, he too heaved a sigh of relief.

Even though he was an Inner Sect disciple, he did not have a good life. Because he was a Fraud Fighter, there were quite a number of disciples who did not like to hang out with him.

Therefore, they did not even wish to go along with him to secret grounds. As such, he could not even get 10,000 Contribution Points per month, as he had to go to the secret grounds alone.

At the same time, there was an extremely high danger for him roaming the secret grounds solo. In a moment of carelessness, he could very well fall to the dangers within.

However, the path of cultivation was one that required a truckload of resources. If he did not have Contribution Points, it was truly very hard to continue raising his cultivation state.

Therefore, when Nan Gongming realized that the pills that Lin Fan was selling were absolutely real, he contemplated about this matter for a long, long time.

He realized that there was a great business opportunity to be made here, one that would help him get the Contribution Points that he required.

After Lin Fan discussed and agreed to it with Nan Gongming, they settled on a time to meet up the next day. The both of them then went on and worked about things their own ways.

Chapter 991: So Savage To Himself!

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

Carrying 800,000 Contribution Points with him, Lin Fan felt like a mini tycoon right now as he arrived at the Exchange Point of the sect.

After browsing through quickly, he realized that some of the items were truly expensive.

Taking the Five Elements Sword Wills that he had cultivated for example, that was a combination of five different types of Sword Wills, and was ranked number twenty one in the entire sect. If one wanted to exchange for it, that would cost them 3,100,000 Contribution Points.

How could that not be considered as exorbitant?

Given his current Contribution Points, if he wanted to exchange for those items, that would undoubtedly be just a dream.

At the same time, he found some Immortal Pills.

The healing pills were all priced at 100,000 Contribution Points and above. And, the amount of Contribution Points required for the pills that could help one in raising their cultivation states were even more humongous.

For most people, these Immortal Pills were extremely incredible. But Lin Fan knew that he could create a World of Pills as long as he had the appropriate amount of materials and ingredients.

He took a general look at the entire collection.

Lin Fan did take a liking to some of the martial arts mystic skills available. However, these few mystic skills were slightly more expensive, and he was short of at least a million Contribution Points.

He then headed over to the marketplace and purchased some other herbs.

He did not purchase those expensive herbs and chose to purchase some cheap and normal ones instead. He was still preparing to create those two types of pills.

…

The next day, Lin Fan met up with Nan Gongming. This time around, he had cultivated out a total of twenty pills.

If he could have all of them sold out, he would definitely earn till he could fly into the Heavens. However, Nan Gongming had suggested for them to not head over to the marketplace area this time around.

The disciples there were poorer.

"Most of the disciples who are richer would be over at the Pills Peak, using the Fire of Heaven and Earth there to cultivate pills." Nan Gongming said.

Lin Fan knew what sort of a place Pills Peak was. This was a place that was dedicated for the disciples in the sect to cultivate pills at. However, there was a fee for it.

A single day at the Pills Peak required 10,000 Contribution Points.

The flames there were the Heaven and Earth Fires and were extremely beneficial to cultivating pills. Not only could they raise the innate quality of the pills, they could also improve the success rate of cultivating pills.

Nan Gongming felt that they could probably reap in even greater rewards if they had headed over there.

When Lin Fan and Nan Gongming arrived at the Pills Peak, a series of fragrant pill aroma fluttered over. This had Lin Fan feeling that this was a World of Pills in itself.

This place was practically on the brink of overcrowding, and numerous disciples were conducting business over here as well. With that, there were a number of them who were selling expensive high grade pills.

"Breaking Immortal Pill! One for 100,000 Contribution Points!" Someone was advertising.

If someone wanted to exchange for a Breaking Immortal Pill within the sect, they would have to cough up 200,000 Contribution Points. And the main reason was that this pill could help raise the probability of one breaking through to the True Immortal state by a large percentage.

However, the Breaking Immortal Pills that were sold here could naturally not compare with those exchanged for by the sect.

There was naturally some small difference in terms of quality.

"Alright, time to start our business." Lin Fan said.

Nan Gongming started advertising out for him next.

"Take a look! There are Immortal Pills being sold here!"

"Damage Leaving Pills! No matter how severe your injuries are, you will definitely recover from them!"

"Mixed Yuan Powers Pills! You can recover all of your powers within a single breath!"

"Be it walking by or passing by, make sure you do not miss it!"

Nan Gongming's shout from the bottom of his core did attract the attention of quite a few people.

Lin Fan felt that his chance of getting rich was about to approach. Therefore, he started shouting out as well, "Take a look at these pills here! They are practically godly items for healing up your wounds! Once you have these pills, you will no longer have to be afraid when going out! Even if you use up your powers completely, you do not have to worry about it either!"

"What pills? For them to have such capabilities, are they Immortal Pills?"

"What's this? There isn't even a single Law of the Immortal Dao within them, and yet you dare to proclaim them as Immortal Pills?!"

"The medicinal aura seems pretty decent. But, I suppose that they are just normal pills, aren't they?"

The disciples who had been attracted over did not have much of an interest when they caught sight of these pills here.

Some of them who were preparing to cultivate their own pills were all tycoons themselves. When they heard that there were Immortal Pills up for sale, they naturally rushed over here with impatience.

Healing pills were something that were extremely precious! If they were to be in a secret ground or to get into a fight with someone else, a healing pill with an exceptionally remarkable effect could often turn the tides of the battle.

But, when they caught sight of the pills, they lost every single bit of excitement they had.

What the f*ck was this? There wasn't even a single Law of the Immortal Dao in it, and yet he claimed that they were Immortal Pills?

When Lin Fan caught sight of how the disciples were preparing to leave after taking a glance at the pills, he was unbothered by it. He then looked over at Nan Gongming. Right now was the time for him to display his worth.

"Everyone, hold up there!" Nan Gongming shouted out loudly.

Everyone was curious, not knowing what this fella wanted. After all, the time of everyone here was extremely precious. How could they possibly let it be wasted by someone like him?

Nan Gongming looked over at the masses, "I know that all of you do not believe that these are Immortal Pills. That's right, they are indeed not Immortal Pills. And yet, they possess effects that are even more wondrous than Immortal Pills. Right now, I hope that every single one of you does not blink your eyes. Because, it is now time to witness the moment of miracle."

The surrounding disciples continued to look at Nan Gongming while still trying to figure out just what he was up to. It was as though they were giving him permission to continue with his act.

Lin Fan felt that his time to step up had come. But, just as Lin Fan was about to strike out, Nan Gongming held out his hand, "There's no need! I have an even better idea!"

Lin Fan was stunned as he put down his fist. He did not know what Nan Gongming was intending to do. At this moment, he saw Nan Gongming take out a long saber before placing it in front of the masses.

"Can all of you inspect and check out this saber?" Nan Gongming asked.

The disciples who were now attracted used their hands to touch it. Instantly, they could feel a sharp gleam that was transmitted from the surface of the saber.

"This is one good saber."

"That's right. If you were to refine it slightly further, it could perhaps even turn into a Lower Grade Utmost Treasure!"

This saber was something that Nan Gongming had obtained by a chance encounter within a secret ground. At the same time, it was his most precious treasure right now.

"I hope that every one of you will not blink your eyes later on!" Nan Gongming yelled out before wielding the long saber in his hands.

The many disciples who were watching this were all shocked. What was going on here?

How was he going to prove himself?

All of a sudden, everyone who were watching the scene felt their jaws dropping.

"Holy f*ck!"

Lin Fan, who already had some idea about how this was going to play out, could not help but cuss out when it actually happened.

This Nan Gongming was way too savage, wasn't he?

Blood sprayed out across the entire ground, as the surrounding disciples stood equally flabbergasted.

"He is mutilating himself right now!"

"Holy f*ck! Does he have to be this savage? He is practically going to die!"

Nan Gongming had stabbed that saber right into his stomach. Even if one's cultivation state were at the Supreme state, they would bloody hell not be able to endure this!

Urgh!

Nan Gongming pulled out the long saber from his stomach and stabbed it in yet again.

Urgh!

The surrounding disciples were practically frozen right now. They could not understand just what in the world was going on. Wasn't he just promoting those pills? Was there a need for him to mutilate himself as such?

Nan Gongming was kneeling onto the ground right now, his face grimaced extremely terribly.

Painful! This was simply way too painful!

"Do my injuries look really grave right now?" Nan Gongming raised his head and looked at the masses.

The disciples who were just frozen right now nodded their heads furiously.

This was definitely some mother*cking hell of an injury! If this weren't considered grave, what else could be considered grave?

At this moment, Lin Fan hurriedly placed the pill in the hands of Nan Gongming, who took the pill and demonstrated it before the masses.

"This is the Damage Leaving Pill. No matter how severe your injuries are, you will be able to recover from it."

And in the next moment, he swallowed the pill whole.

Lin Fan could not help but admire this Nan Gongming right now as well. To think that this guy could be this savage towards himself!

Chapter 992: Raise

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

Pills Peak…

There were relentless cries of exclamations rising right now.

"Look at that! The injuries of that guy have suddenly recovered all of a sudden for absolutely no reason at all!"

"Motherf*cking hell! That's way too unreal, isn't it? That was a godly weapon that was on the brink of breaking through to become a Lower Grade Utmost Treasure! To think that he could actually recover from it after stabbing himself to that extent!"

"What's the name of that pill again?"

"Damage Leaving Pill…!"

"That's impossible! That pill doesn't have any Laws of the Immortal Dao at all! It can't be an Immortal Pill! But, if it isn't an Immortal Pill, how does it actually possess such healing powers?"

"I recall that even the godly Endless Shennong Pill of the sect isn't as sick as this, is it?"

…

Shock!

Amazement!

When the surrounding disciples first heard that it was an Immortal Pill, they were extremely curious in their hearts. But, when they saw that the pill did not have any Laws of the Immortal Dao, they did not bother much with it any longer.

When Nan Gongming took out that long saber, they just took it as though they were watching a show, and were trying to see what this guy was prepared to do.

And as Nan Gongming stabbed himself with the long saber, they were totally dumbfounded.

That was just self-mutilation!

But, when they saw his injuries recovering after consuming that pill, they were even more astounded.

"Everyone, you've seen it, right? This is the magical Damage Leaving Pill. No matter how severe your injuries are, you will be able to recover from it!" Nan Gongming opened up his upper shirt and revealed a body without even a single scratch on it. This was totally sick to the extremes.

Everyone's heard turned around in unison.

Their gazes were all focused on those pills right now.

This Damage Leaving Pill was even sicker than the Endless Shennong Pill of the sect!

The Endless Shennong Pill required a joss stick's time to recover from injuries. But, this pill was even better! All it took was the blink of an eye!

If they were to clash against someone else in the future, this was definitely a pill that could help them turn the tables around!

Lin Fan realized that the expression on the faces of these people were getting off right now. Each of them emitted a gaze that was extremely thirsty and chilling to look at.

"I'll take ALL of those pills! How many Contribution Points do you want for them? Name your price!" A second generation disciple clamored out.

He was extremely rich; furthermore, his father was an elder. As the son of an elder, he was what people would call a second generation of the sect.

Contribution Points and whatnot, he had no lack of them. He had a truckload of money anyway.

"F*ck! Just someone like you and you think that you can snatch this away from me? Just because your father is an elder? My Contribution Points are no way less than yours!"

"Everyone, let's not get agitated right now! There are quite a number of pills here! Let us be fair now and purchase it one by one! Let's not disrupt the harmony here!"

"Get lost, f*ckface! These pills are as good as a second life! The number of pills you have would equal to the number of lives you have! What is harmony in the face of this?"

"That's right! The sect's Grand Competition is coming up soon! Your Father here is someone who intends to go up against the Remnants! As long as I can f*ck those Remnants over, I can turn into a Remnant myself!"

"Remnants? Those are nothing! As long as I can get my hands on these pills, I can even challenge those powerful beings on the True Immortal Substitute Roll!"

…

At this moment, the entire place was in a state of chaos. For these pills, everyone was almost on the brink of breaking out into fights.

Somewhere not too far away…

Ling Wuzun caught sight of the commotion up ahead and furrowed his brows, "What's up with that place?"

"Senior brother, let me go check it out." A disciple beside him rushed up ahead immediately to scout for information. As long as he could pander up to this senior brother here, his future ahead would be extremely bright for sure.

It didn't take long before the disciple scurried back.

"Senior brother, someone is selling pills over there. The pill that he's selling is called the Damage Leaving Pill. No matter how severe your injuries are, you will be able to recover from them. Those disciples who are looking to purchase it are even saying that they would make use of this to challenge the Remnants!" The disciple reported.

"Hmph! Pointless struggles! Inner Sect disciples are Inner Sect disciples indeed. All they can do is daydream." Ling Wuzun remarked in disdain.

To think that even some ordinary Inner Sect disciples would dare to daydream of depending on some pills to win against the Remnants. This was just dreaming in broad daylight!

"Senior brother, you're right! All of these disciples are never thinking about improving themselves, and dream of depending on external help every day! Honestly, they're just dreaming!" The disciple buttered up Ling Wuzun.

"Let's go…"

Ling Wuzun wasn't bothered about this stuff as he turned around and proceeded to leave.

…

The situation that Lin Fan was faced with right now was extremely serious. These disciples seemed as though they were about to devour him right now.

It seemed that they would tear at his life unless he sold the pills to them.

But, there was only a limited quantity of pills available! For a moment or so, things were really pretty awkward right now.

Lin Fan focused his mind and shouted out.

"Nineteen pills here! The highest bidder wins!"

At this moment, the entire scene broke out into chaos once more as the tycoons started yelling out their offers at the top of their lungs.

Some of those who only had a bit of money could only be filled with a face of regret. How were they to compete against something like this? They just couldn't!

In just a few calls, the price skyrocketed to 2,000,000. And by the looks of the situation, this wasn't even the limit just yet.

There was still a lot of room for the price to continue growing!

Eventually, the pills were sold to a huge tycoon; the price had eventually been raised to 3,010,000.

3,010,000 Contribution Points… This was an astronomical figure!

Most ordinary disciples could never ever earn this amount of Contribution Points!

The disciple who had obtained the pills looked down at the rest of them like a king right now.

"Anything that I, Ma Tengyun, want to get my hands on, no one else can get it away from me!" Ma Tengyun was filled with pride right now. With the flip of his hands, 3,010,000 Contribution Points were spent. But even then, he did not feel a pinch.

"Awesome!"

Seeing a tycoon as such, Lin Fan was extremely impressed. However, compared to Nan Gongming, this was truly child's play still.

The truly awesome one was still Nan Gongming.

That performance! That skill! If it was any ordinary person, they would not have had the guts to do it!

The reason why these pills could fetch such a high price was one that could not be separated from Nan Gongming's name. If not for that live demonstration, the atmosphere of the scene would definitely not have been this hyped up.

Lin Fan left the place with Nan Gongming.

"Brother, that was incredible." Lin Fan patted Nan Gongming's shoulder saying.

Nan Gongming chuckled out, "My 5,000 Contribution Points!"

Lin Fan swiped out instantly, "Make that 10,000."

Nan Gongming waved his hand, "If I said 5,000, it is 5,000. I, Nan Gongming, am a man of my words. But, since you insist on it this badly, 10,000 it is then!"

HUH?!

Motherf*cker!

Shameless!

Lin Fan had initially thought that this Nan Gongming truly had character. But, who would have thought that this fella was this shameless!

With 3,000,000 Contribution Points in his hands, Lin Fan could go exchange for some good items right now.

Some of the mystic skills of the martial arts within the sect were pretty decent indeed. They had amassed the wisdom of their predecessors.

Combined with the Contribution Points from before, Lin Fan's total life savings were close to 4,000,000 Contribution Points right now.

With them, Lin Fan exchanged three martial arts mystic skills.

Movement Mystic Skill: Reaching Heaven in a Single Bound.

Even though the name of this movement skill was domineering, it didn't mean that one could truly reach the heavens with a single step. Although, this was admittedly quite a bit stronger than his So Near, Yet So Far.

Within the entire sect, this movement mystic skill was ranked number four amongst all movement skills.

As for the other three movement skills, it was claimed that one could reach the ends of the world at least using them, even if they couldn't reach the stars.

Fist Mystic Skill: Fist of Origin.

This was a pretty decent fist skill. However, one could only cultivate it if they were a True Immortal. But, for someone like Lin Fan, none of that mattered. With the System, there was no restriction on any skills for him.

When he deployed it, it possessed both the Laws of the Immortal Dao as well as the might of the Heavens.

Compared to the Fist of True Immortal that was displayed by Qing Yangzi back then, this was even stronger.

As for the third martial arts mystic skill, it wasn't one that belonged to the Heaven and Earth Sect. It was a mystic skill of the Buddha race, something that could complement the Great Buddha's Light of Purification.

The remaining Contribution Points were used by Lin Fan entirely to purchase some high quality herbs.

He wanted to cultivate pills for himself and pop them down furiously so that he could bring his own strength to the full cultivation state.
