Chapter 191 The Truth

Inside the room, the two women gasped. The little Dragon in the cauldron was too brilliant, radiating a myriad of colors and accompanied by a rich, intoxicating fragrance.

“No, this is a Dragon formed from some kind of essence, not a True Dragon!”

In Yue Chan’s beautiful eyes, a radiant glow burst forth. Having cultivated the True Dragon Precious Technique, she quickly discerned its true nature.

But even so, it was still astonishing. This little golden Dragon was extraordinary; it could fly, burrow through the earth, and move freely through sun, moon, water, and fire, indistinguishable from a real living being.

“What exactly is this?” Qingyi asked, feeling it was far from simple. Just a single whiff made her entire body comfortable, her cells becoming active and full of vitality.

“Immortal Spring Essence!” Lin Fan replied, explaining its origin.

In an instant, the two women were quite surprised, their large eyes sparkling and their gazes burning, a ripple appearing that was uncharacteristic of their usual ethereal and serene demeanor.

“Rumor has it that there are only a few Immortal Spring Eyes in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths; it’s truly astonishing that one would appear in the Lower Realm,” Yue Chan said with a faint smile, her voice trembling slightly.

This was undoubtedly the greatest gain. Even the incomplete Qilin method couldn’t compare. Its rarity was on par with an Elixir of Life, and its value was inestimable.

It was likely that even the Sect Masters of the Upper Realm wouldn't have imagined that such a treasure, enough to cause a fierce struggle among the blood-withered giants, would be contained in this barren land.

“This thing must never be displayed in front of others again, or it will truly be very dangerous.”

Lin Fan re-sealed it, only taking it out when necessary.

After all, life-extending substances are extremely tempting and would drive old monsters whose Lifespan was nearing its end into a frenzy.

Yue Chan and Qingyi nodded, naturally understanding its value and the severe consequences if the news were to leak.

Subsequently, the Taiyi True Water, which was about to take human form, and the sentient Holy Medicine, the Spirit-Communicating Flower, were also several rare treasures. If brought to the Upper Realm, they might advance even further.

Especially the Spirit-Communicating Flower, if planted in a medicinal garden, it could enlighten precious medicines and bestow them with sentience, greatly increasing their efficacy and giving them the potential for advancement and transformation.

Regarding this, Lin Fan had already witnessed it in the Hundred Herbs Garden; many plants, having been touched by its pollen, had almost become living entities, similar to divine medicines.

At the same time, it was also greatly beneficial for the cultivation of powerful individuals, making it easier to comprehend the Dao and gain insight into precious techniques.

“We’re rich! The probability of cultivating holy medicines will greatly increase in the future.” Lin Fan smiled. His gains were immense, laying the foundation for his cultivation resources for the next step of igniting his divine fire.

Next, all the items were put away, and the three discussed the Kun Peng Nest in the North Sea and the demise of Lin Fan’s spiritual body.

“There’s no rush concerning the Kun Peng Precious Technique for now. Even if we go, I’m afraid we won’t gain much,” Lin Fan said.

Yue Chan was puzzled and asked, “Why?”

“This has to do with the good deeds done by the people of the Upper Realm. At the end of the Immortal Ancient Era, during the great war between the two realms, Kunpeng returned severely wounded.

As a result, it was ambushed by the remnant immortals of the Immortal Palace, who, in conjunction with other forces, planted the Immortal Severing Curse on it, causing it to die in the Ancient Era… Therefore, it harbors hatred towards the Upper Realm,” Lin Fan explained.

Yue Chan and Qingyi were dumbfounded, truly not knowing what to say. In such a situation, anyone would feel resentment.

Moreover, Kunpeng had fought for this realm through life and death, only to be betrayed by its own people, which was truly lamentable!

“In recent years, the Butian Sect has also grown close to the Immortal Palace. If we go to the Kun Peng Nest then, and are somehow killed by a trap left by the Ten Vicious, it would be a truly unjust death.”

Lin Fan was very calm, then took a sip of the tea Qingyi handed him, moistening his throat. Indeed, the secondary body was virtuous and quiet.

“No wonder you dislike the Immortal Palace… But how did you know about this? Even in the Three Thousand Provinces, this matter should be considered top secret.”

Yue Chan stared at him, curiosity written all over her beautiful face. They had grown up together, yet he knew so many secrets, making her feel quite foolish.

“Actually, before I entered the Butian Sect, I was raised by a woman. She told me…” Lin Fan said earnestly.

Yue Chan was suspicious, guessing that this might be an old monster, otherwise how could she know so much.

It’s just… how could someone bear to send a Genius like Lin Fan into the Butian Sect? Could there be a conspiracy involved?

“Don’t guess. I’m quite puzzled myself. It seems Pretty Sister knows a little, but she doesn’t care and is even preparing to send me back to the Nine Heavens,” Lin Fan said calmly.

Yue Chan’s beautiful eyes flickered with a strange light, and she asked in surprise, “You’re from outside the Three Thousand Provinces?”

“Yes, when I was little, I lived in the frontier of Great Scarlet Heaven, and then that woman threw me out, and I ended up in the Three Thousand Provinces,” Lin Fan said, half-truthfully.

Then, he continued, “Doesn’t the sect have records that there’s still Butian Path in the Nine Heavens, and the Butian Sect is just a branch?”

Hearing this, Yue Chan felt a mix of emotions. The information was too vast. The world was expansive, boundless, with realms beyond realms, and also great enemies.

“Don’t worry, little Yueyue, I won’t look down on you for being a frog at the bottom of a well,” Lin Fan teased.

Yue Chan rolled her eyes at him. This guy really didn’t know how to talk. This Fairy was naturally beautiful and would sooner or later comprehend the past and present, achieving Immortal Ascension.

“What’s going on with your spiritual body?” she asked again.

“Don’t worry about it. This matter is very serious and involves too much. Knowing it without strength is useless. After I see Liu Ma, we’ll return to the Upper Realm,” Lin Fan frowned.

…

A few days later, the three left Duankong City, but they split into two paths. Yue Chan had received some news and was preparing to investigate the Butian Pavilion.

It was rumored that the ancient sacrificial spirit of the Butian Pavilion was in trouble, with its Lifespan nearing its end, causing various forces in the Desolate Region to stir, posing a risk of annihilation.

Although the two sides had once been at odds, founded by a discarded disciple, it was still a force that had branched off from the Butian Sect, and not just anyone could covet it.

“Aren’t you coming with me?” Yue Chan whispered, her white robes fluttering in the Void Realm, like a flawless snow lotus, radiating an indescribable elegance and agility.

Lin Fan shook his head and smiled, “It should be you coming with me. An ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her in-laws, and I’ve already met your family, you know.”

“Bah, who’s your wife? And I’m not ugly!” Yue Chan chided, recalling how her maternal uncle, father, and mother had praised Lin Fan endlessly, a blush of indignation rising within her.

At this moment, her heart was pounding fast, and she felt like fleeing. If she truly met his family, the relationship between them would no longer be merely that of Senior Sister and Junior Brother.

Finally, Yue Chan ran off, directly using a teleportation talisman.

However, at the moment she entered the Void Realm, she turned back and warned, “Don’t lay a hand on Qingyi, otherwise… Hmph hmph…”

Qingyi was stunned. She hadn’t expected that her main body, who always pursued the Great Dao and discarded all emotions, would have such a side.

Furthermore, after sharing memories with Yue Chan, she sometimes couldn’t distinguish foolishly what kind of feelings she harbored for this guy.

The next moment, a warm hand reached out, taking her delicate hand, and a voice whispered in her ear, “Don’t overthink it. Just be yourself.”

“Will that be possible?” Qingyi murmured softly.

Looking out at the horizon, a beam of light shone, enveloping her in a faint golden glow, sacred and hazy.

“There’s always a way. Who can be certain about the future?”

“Why do I feel like you have ulterior motives, always instigating the relationship between me and the main body?” Qingyi blinked her star-like eyes, scrutinizing him.

“Hehe, you guessed right, because I want to buy one get one free, and gain an extra wife for nothing,” Lin Fan laughed, speaking his mind directly.

“Go to hell, go to hell…”
