Chapter 1205 – Divine Pill’s Effects

“Let’s go!”

As Tianming had taken the divine pill, Lingfeng and the rest were being targeted too. They had already fought numerous times by the time Tianming reached their pathway. Still, they mounted a fighting retreat. By now, they were quite far away. Lingfeng and Xiaoxiao could both fight at the constellier level, so protecting themselves was no issue. Soon, Meow Meow caught up to them in the pathway.

“Get on!” Tianming yelled. The two pulled the confused Yu Ziqian on and the Archaionfiend immediately returned to Xiaoxiao’s lifebound space. The Soulfiend, on the other hand, turned into black wind that surrounded Lingfeng. Though there were still many disciples stuck close to them, they were merely small fry, so they were no problem. Meow Meow easily sent them blasting off.

“Damn… did you really toss the Lifesteal Silverdragon away?” Yu Ziqian said with disbelief and heartache.

“Yep.”

“I didn’t think anyone would be willing to do that. If we’re looking at this long term, the weapon is far more useful than a divine pill. Had we known, we wouldn’t have gone to take it and offended Zhan Yuance in the process.”

“You don’t know anything. Just watch what we do,” Tianming said.

“But it’s a grade-seven divine artifact! How could you!” Yu Ziqian clutched his chest, his complaints never ending.

……

After some time, Tianming and the rest finally managed to lose their pursuers and Meow Meow returned to the lifebound space to rest. The moment Tianming got to the ground, he handed the pill to Lingfeng.

“Take it and refine it,” Tianming said. The divine pill was actually the size of an infant’s fist. There were a few complete divine patterns on it, the largest of which was a fiendpath world. Within it, countless black patterns swirled around into a vortex that looked like a furious face. It had no fragrance at all; instead, it seemed to make one breathe more laboriously at the sight of it.

“Alright.” With Lingfeng, there were no curt refusals or exaggerated expressions of touchedness. This was already common among them. He knew from the beginning that this was the choice Tianming would make, and that he had good reasons for doing so. Thus, he focused on what he had to do instead: get stronger and take more of the burden of their future fights.

“Wow… this is the first time I’ve seen a grade-seven divine pill.” Yu Ziqian’s eyes were glowing. As an alchemy guru, it was such an enchanting sight to him that he had completely forgotten about the lost chain.

“Want to lick it?” Lingfeng asked.

“Of course!”

Lingfeng brought the pill to his face, and he really did stretch his tongue out. The pill sent out a miasma that looked like a bunch of ants, which crawled onto Yu Ziqian’s mouth, causing him to howl in pain and back off. He took out his Reginal Fan to fan his tongue as if he had tasted something spicy. “The pill’s effects are too intense! If you swallow it, it’ll blow you up. You might want to slow down. After all, your body isn’t the same as Zhan Yuance’s. Not everyone can just assimilate a grade-seven divine pill.”

“You talking to me?” Lingfeng asked.

“Of course! Look at my tongue!” He poked it out and it was completely blackened with many black boils forming.

“Eww! That’s gross. Kissing you must feel like eating shit!” Ying Huo said.

“Leave me alone! Oh, my poor tongue….”

Yu Ziqian had wanted to test out the pill’s effects for Lingfeng, only to find that its destructive force was far worse than the yinyang skyscorch pill. A single waft of air was enough to corrode his tongue, so swallowing it would only mean certain death.

“I heard those that can’t endure a divine pill’s effects can be sucked dry by the pill itself and die. Can you handle one like this?” Tianming asked just to be safe.

“It won’t be a problem.” Just as the others thought Lingfeng was about to swallow the pill, he opened up the formation protecting his chest and revealed the void inside. Then, he tossed the divine pill in it and closed the formation again like nothing had happened, much to Yu Ziqian’s puzzlement. “The effects are potent. It’ll take a little time for me to absorb it.”

“Alright, you do you,” Tianming said. He hadn’t expected that Lingfeng would use the Primordial Gate to refine the pill. That was a legacy of the Primordial Demonlord. Seeing Lingfeng’s reaction, the divine pill didn’t seem to be that big a deal for him after all.

“What in the world?! There’s a hole! In your chest!” Yu Ziqian’s delayed reaction finally caught up. He shrieked and stared at Lingfeng wide-eyed. “Why aren’t you all surprised? Is he a human?”

He looked around and saw that Xiaoxiao and Tianming were completely unfazed. Then he felt his world crumbling. “Umm… might you guys… perhaps be… aliens?”

“Aliens? What do you mean?”

“People from other nova source worlds….”

“Boo!”

“Hey, don’t scare me like that!”

……

The area around them was completely silent. Lingfeng sat in the corner, quietly assimilating the power of the grandpath fiend pill. He looked no different from someone who was sleeping, a complete contrast against Zhan Yuance’s flaming and exploding body when he had absorbed the yinyang skyscorch pill. That only showed how terrifying the Primordial Gate really was.

“There’s no leakage at all… the assimilation efficiency is a hundred percent! Feng will benefit 50% more than a normal person with this pill!” Yu Ziqian said enviously. This was the ideal form of assimilation for an alchemy guru like him.

“Let me tell you this as the Ultimate Pill God. Hanging out with them, the two males at least, will be endlessly beneficial for you,” said the portable grandpa.

“Old man, you said they have many secrets. Why don’t you tell me a few?” Yu Ziqian asked.

“It’s better for you not to ask. Knowing too much isn’t a good thing. Right now, I’m nothing but a crippled soul and there’s nothing much I can do to help you.”

“Whatever! I used to think that I was a monster, but compared to them, I’m normal after all! It’s wonderful!” Currently, Yu Ziqian was protecting them. Xiaoxiao and Tianming were also cultivating with Lingfeng.

“I’ll tell you something exciting then,” said the grandpa.

“What?”

“That girl is consuming caeli.”

“Huh? Why the hell is she doing that?”

“She can grow stronger by consuming caeli, unlike you guys who have to process the insights within them.”

“God damn… and to think that I thought Lin Xiaoxiao was more normal than the rest. They’re all weirdos.”
