"Brother, did you capture that powerful Demon Clan expert?" Li Daode asked in a hushed tone.
Lin Fan waved his hand and said, "I’m not that kind of person."
Li Daode blinked, clearly skeptical, wearing an expression of "I don’t believe you one bit." If you’re truly not "that kind of person," how could you possibly linger here for so long?
But now wasn’t the ti to dwell on such matters.
The battle between nurous experts and the fiery red pig had reached a fever pitch, with several unfortunate experts already slain by the pig’s unparalleled attacks.
Boom!
At that mont, the experts unleashed their Supre Divine Power, striking the golden gourd out of the pig’s grasp and sending it soaring into the sky. Instantly, the eyes of the gathered experts burned with fervor as they scrambled madly to seize the golden gourd.
They had fought against its wielder.
They had already witnessed the terrifying power of the gourd.
It was a Supre Treasure imbued with unparalleled divine might.
"Dammit."
The fiery red pig roared in fury, the flas encircling its body transforming into fire dragons that roared and surged upward. So experts couldn’t withstand the onslaught and retreated instantly.
Yet, others wielded their Divine Skills to fiercely counter the fire dragons with unmatched power.
Bam!
Bam!
The golden gourd, struck with force, flew higher into the sky. Suddenly, a radiant beam resembling a long whip lashed out and struck the gourd, sending it tilting at an angle and plumting downward.
"You reckless cultivators, are you truly intent on awakening the horrors sealed within this Forbidden Land? Should that happen, forget yourselves—even the entire Immortal Realm will be engulfed in endless darkness!" bellowed the fiery red pig.
"Leave now, all of you!"
Unfortunately, though.
His words had no effect whatsoever. To the experts, they were akin to playing music to a cow—ignored entirely.
Still, one expert paused to ask, "What exactly is this place?"
"This is an Ancient Forbidden Land that shouldn’t exist. It seals endless darkness in the depths of the Void. Now, a fraction has been exposed and discovered by you ddling cultivators—leave imdiately," declared the fiery red pig.
"What is being imprisoned here?" Another expert asked urgently, sensing the extraordinary nature of this place and the terrifying creatures within it—certainly not sothing that ordinarily existed in the Immortal Realm. Otherwise, the disparity in cultivation levels would be far too extre; even for so many True Immortal Realm experts, subduing this being seed impossible.
What level of cultivation must it possess?
The fiery red pig replied, "It imprisons the Source of Darkness. If not for the massive energy required to suppress it, I would’ve slaughtered you petty cultivators long ago—now leave!"
Many experts shuddered in shock at these words.
This creature wasn’t even utilizing all of its power. If it had been, just how terrifying would it be? Even imagining it was chilling.
Lin Fan, too, heard these secrets revealed by the fiery red pig for the first ti.
So, it truly was an Ancient Forbidden Land.
Imprisoning the Source of Darkness.
But...
The golden gourd fell from the sky, landing directly in his hands. Its texture felt quite remarkable to the touch.
Lin Fan glanced down at the gourd, then looked up at the experts rushing over from afar.
In an instant.
It was as though realization dawned upon him.
"Run!"
Lin Fan exclaid in surprise, activating his Innate Divine Ability to flee imdiately. The mad old man shrieked as he pursued Lin Fan without hesitation.
"Brother, I..." Li Daode froze montarily, then suddenly grasped the situation. Damn it—Brother Lin ran away! But he couldn’t flee. Once he started running, he’d be seen as Lin Fan’s accomplice. With his speed far slower, he would surely be caught by those very experts and beaten to death.
"Young friend, don’t run. We an no harm—can’t we sit down and talk?" An expert marveled at Lin Fan’s speed. At this rate, catching him seed unlikely; thus, they shouted, hoping to coax Lin Fan to stop.
The fiery red pig howled furiously. The theft of the golden gourd was intolerable—the pig roared, and fiery hooves descended from the skies to launch indiscriminate attacks.
These attacks earned Lin Fan precious ti.
At the very least, they delayed so of the experts.
The mad old man shrieked loudly, grabbed Lin Fan, and escaped into the Void. Perhaps motivated by urgency upon witnessing his "father" being chased, he surprisingly unleashed his escape skills and vanished without a trace in re monts.
No matter how the experts searched, they couldn’t sense Lin Fan’s presence at all.
Without a trace, tracking was obviously out of the question.
Suddenly.
The experts realized another person had been with Lin Fan earlier. Turning around, they found that this individual had also vanished entirely—not knowing where he had gone, clearly having slipped away amidst their pursuit.
Just then, the enraged fiery red pig attacked furiously. A group of experts exchanged glances and quickly decided to retreat.
This being was too difficult to handle. Staying any longer spelled uncertain fate and likely doom.
"Leave!"
"There is a treasure here. Let’s prepare better and co back next ti."
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
The experts wielded their Divine Skills, transforming into streams of light that vanished into the horizon, leaving the Forbidden Land.
The fiery red pig stood still, frowning deeply. Cultivators had discovered this place; the Forbidden Land would no longer be at peace. Never underestimate the greed of cultivators for treasures.
They would stop at nothing to obtain rare treasures.
A three-headed, six-ard simian creature appeared. "What now? Surely more cultivators will co here eventually. Chaos will ensue. The Divine dicine is too tempting for them; two plants have already fallen into others’ hands. If the miraculous properties of the Divine dicine are known, this place will inevitably beco a battlefield."
"And many more cultivators will perish here."
The fiery red pig didn’t respond imdiately. Deep in thought, he pondered sothing. "I’ll set up a deadly Big Array here. They won’t return. What puzzles is that despite the seal being deep within the Void, a fraction of it has surfaced. Could this be the beginning of a calamity?"
Several days passed.
The Immortal Realm was shaken.
The appearance of the Forbidden Land and the ergence of the Divine dicine were no longer secrets.
The first to gain this information was the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.
They beca aware of the Forbidden Land’s location and managed to acquire Divine dicine from within. They originally intended to keep the secret for longer but were shocked to find it had already leaked.
Simultaneously, all major factions in the Immortal Realm learned of the matter. A group of True Immortal Realm experts had entered the Forbidden Land, suffering heavy casualties. The creatures inside were terrifying—even True Immortal Realm cultivators encountered misfortune there.
This deterred many adventurous cultivators.
If True Immortal experts could perish inside.
Why would anyone else dare enter?
Surely any attempt would lead to certain death.
The True Immortal expert who obtained the Divine dicine had gone into hiding, his whereabouts unknown. He feared others might co to steal the Divine dicine and stealthily sought an Identification Master to discern the nature of the Divine dicine he possessed.
Unfortunately.
The masters proficient in identifying countless Spiritual dicines were utterly baffled by this item. They couldn’t even determine its effects, leaving them clueless.
The True Immortal expert wouldn’t dare to consu it recklessly, lest it have undesirable properties. As tantalizing as it looked, he chose caution.
Eventually, he thought of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.
If anyone could identify the Divine dicine, it would be them. If even they didn’t know, then hope was basically lost.
anwhile.
Lin Fan and the mad old man had been hiding in a mountain range for nearly half a month. They hadn’t left but remained quietly secluded.
Who would be foolish enough to walk out openly after acquiring such a treasure? Running into trouble wouldn’t be worth it.
"Father, how long will we stay here? This place is so boring," complained the mad old man, visibly restless and yearning to leave.
Lin Fan reassured his son’s impatient spirit while carefully examining the treasure he’d obtained.
[Mixed Elent Golden Gourd: Immortal Treasure—a golden gourd ford from the Nine Heavens Seven-Colored Vine, containing the Golden River. A single drop of Golden River Water weighs ten thousand pounds and can absorb treasures while providing formidable protection. Possesses countless mystical properties.]
To obtain this treasure was truly a stroke of luck.
By so incredible twist of fate, it landed in his hands. Who could he tell that would believe him?
Likely no one would.
Lin Fan inspected the interior of the Mixed Elent Golden Gourd, discovering golden liquid flowing within. The Golden River emitted a concentrated Immortal Qi, which made Lin Fan feel an unparalleled sense of comfort. It was akin to being in a paradise, even boosting his mana.
"Father, I want that toy," said the mad old man.
Lin Fan glanced at the mad old man and said, "Sure, son. Trade your Blood Pool for it, and it’s yours."
"No way—that’s my toy too. I can’t give it up," the mad old man exclaid, clutching his chest as though guarding his most precious possession.
Lin Fan chuckled, "If you won’t trade, then I can’t give you this either. One toy is enough; having too many would be boring, right?"
If the mad old man would truly trade with him, Lin Fan wouldn’t hesitate.
After all, the Blood Pool wasn’t ordinary—it far exceeded the Mixed Elent Golden Gourd in value. Trading wouldn’t be a loss.
Sulking, the mad old man squatted nearby, fiddling with fallen leaves on the ground as though deeply disappointed.
Afterward, Lin Fan began refining the Mixed Elent Golden Gourd. Immortal Treasures were difficult to refine; they contained nurous innate arrays, vastly different from arrays artificially constructed within Dao Artifacts.
The difference between the two was imnse.
Like heaven and earth.
Half a month passed.
"What a pity. I don’t have a Divine Skill for refining arrays—if I did, this would be much easier."
Lin Fan sighed, feeling rather helpless.
Currently, he had rely established a minimal connection with the Mixed Elent Golden Gourd. As an Immortal Treasure, it contained nurous innate arrays. At his current pace, fully refining it would take centuries—at minimum.
This explained why the fiery red pig had resorted to brute-force thods to wield the Mixed Elent Golden Gourd.
After all, having only just acquired it, and amidst the sudden battle against True Immortal Realm experts, it had no ti to refine the treasure.
Lin Fan checked the situation within the Universe Tripod.
The two Demon Clan experts were in dire straits, suppressed and overwheld by the Supre God Talisman.
"Release us, you damned Human Cultivator! If you’ve got the guts, reveal your identity!" one of the Demon Clan experts bellowed. Unable to move under the weight of the Supre God Talisman’s suppression, their formidable cultivation was futile—the Universe Tripod remained unbreachable, ensuring they remained trapped.
Lin Fan retorted, "Hmph! Telling you wouldn’t matter, but since you ask, I’m Lin Fan—the most chivalrous mber of the Taiwu Immortal Sect. Falling into my hands is just your unlucky fate."
"But heaven has a love for all life."
"I’ll teach you an absolute Supre Great Divine Power—the Ancestor Dragon Floating Body. You’ll have three days. If you fail to grasp its basics, then bear the consequences."
