Chapter 285 Immortal Body
Chapter 285: Immortal Body
At this moment, Lin Fan walked over curiously, wanting to know what the Little Dog was doing, as it had arranged for people to dig pits for no reason.
As far as he knew, the entire Immortal Island was buried with countless white bones, and even if they were strong in life, their divine essence had been lost, so they were not of much use.
"Could it be that a dog can't change its habit of eating shit, and wants to gnaw on bones?" Lin Fan scoffed.
Of course, this was just teasing. Based on his understanding of the Little Dog, there was probably some profound meaning, or perhaps there was treasure underground.
"You're quite comfortable, aren't you!"
"Eh, you brat aren't dead. Are you scared and giving up on cultivating a second strand of Immortal Qi? This King thought you'd be stubborn, so I could collect your corpse… cough, for your Chaos Magical Artifact…"
The Little Dog lay in the arms of the beautiful woman, looking greatly disappointed.
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan's face darkened. He wished he could kick it. It was too much, actually hoping for his death to seize the treasures on his body.
"What are you having people dig here?" He asked directly, but he also knew it would likely be difficult to get a straight answer from a dog's mouth.
However, to his surprise, the Little Dog revealed its purpose, "This place is called Immortal Island, so naturally, there are Immortals buried here. I'm digging graves."
"What?!"
Lin Fan's eyes widened, truly startled by this news. Such things actually existed beneath the island, which was shocking.
Moreover, this island concealed too many secrets: celestial seeds, Five Elements Immortal Gold, Immortal King stone chambers, etc. Isn't this an Immortal treasure trove?
"Ah…"
Suddenly, several screams came from the large pit being dug, erupting with blood, startling both Lin Fan and the Little Dog.
"Run!" A group of people roared, terrified, covered in blood, all flying out of the hundreds of feet deep hole.
Clearly, from their expressions, it was not difficult to tell that something terrifying had appeared underground, endangering their lives.
At the same time, Lin Fan and the Little Dog on the ground also felt it. A shocking aura erupted from the pit, surging powerfully.
"This is… the aura of the Dao!" Lin Fan exclaimed in surprise.
In front, through the pit, one could see black light soaring into the sky, while also seeing the brilliant light of the Dao blooming, intertwined together.
"Whoosh!"
The Little Dog's eyes glowed with fervor, rushing over immediately to investigate. Lin Fan naturally did not fall behind.
After all, this was an Immortal Body. Every part of it was a treasure. If it were outside, it would be enough to cause Supremes to fight fiercely.
However, Lin Fan was very cautious. Without the Little Dog's strength, he held the Chaos Magical Artifact above his head to defend against the vast fluctuations.
Arriving at the bottom of the deep pit, the earthen walls were still stained with fresh blood, and broken bones and flesh were scattered on the ground, reeking strongly.
It was clear that a few unlucky individuals had dug up the Immortal Body, but lacking protective measures, they were directly shaken to death by the aura of the Dao.
"That is…"
The originally dark underground now shimmered with radiant light, dazzling to the eyes. It was a corpse emitting light, lifelike.
Auspicious light surged, and Immortal mist was vast. Even though it was in an area piled with white bones, it remained sacred and inviolable.
Furthermore, the Immortal Body was covered by a layer of armor, with specks of black light. Even after long years, it remained incorruptible.
However, one could see that it was full of cracks, but these were not due to erosion by time, but rather from having suffered heavy blows.
It was hard to imagine what kind of power could crack Immortal armor!
Lin Fan approached, opening his Heavenly Eye. Through the hazy Immortal mist, he clearly saw the true appearance of the Immortal Body: its limbs were covered in scales, and it had sharp claws.
Unfortunately, its head was gone, severed and shattered by an enemy, destroying the most important Primordial Spirit. Otherwise, it would not have died so easily.
"What race is it?" He wondered. The exposed scales somewhat resembled a True Dragon, but its hands and feet were covered in black fur.
"This was originally a bear that evolved towards a True Dragon, thus attaining the Dao and achieving Immortal Ascension," the Little Dog explained, also examining it carefully, drooling.
"Bear turning into a Dragon!" Lin Fan was shocked, feeling very unsettled.
In fact, all things in heaven and earth could evolve towards a certain creature. For example, if birds transformed into True Phoenixes, their strength would greatly increase.
Moreover, such things were not uncommon in the cultivation world, as some creatures were indeed very perfect and naturally powerful.
As for Dragons, they were one such type, and among the strongest creatures.
Therefore, many creatures often chose to transform into Dragons during evolution, such as the common saying of carp leaping over the Dragon Gate, snakes turning into flood dragons, and flood dragons turning into Dragons.
Of course, this process was not simple; it was accompanied by life-and-death crises. Heaven and earth would send down Lightning Tribulations to block the path, making it difficult for those without exceptional talent and great Luck to succeed.
As far as Lin Fan knew, a Demon Emperor in later generations had transformed from a rabbit into a Dragon.
Now, this one before him was even more impressive, having achieved Immortal Ascension.
"The armor is yours, the Immortal Body is mine. Dragon meat, I haven't eaten it in an epoch. That taste…" The Little Dog bared its fangs, its red tongue licking its lips.
Lin Fan was stunned. This dog dug up an Immortal Body just to eat it. What a waste of heavenly resources!
But… with a gulp, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. This idea seemed pretty good.
Dragon meat, how many people in this world could taste it?
"Don't even think about it. A single drop of Immortal blood could burst you. Eating it would just be a waste!" The Little Dog spoke, making him abandon the thought.
Lin Fan's face instantly darkened, and he howled. With a peerless delicacy before him, yet unable to consume it, that feeling was indescribably agonizing.
"No, even if I can't eat it now, I can save it for later use. What's seen is shared, it must be divided equally."
"Woof, brat, you're asking for too much. The Dragon meat is this King's. At most, I'll give you a few more drops of blood." The Little Dog bared its teeth.
"Hmph, don't think I don't know. There's a field around that Immortal Body. Without the help of my Chaos Magical Artifact, you'll probably have a hard time taking off the armor," Lin Fan scoffed.
There was a strange power on the Dragon's body. Even after endless years, it still contained vigorous life essence, remaining incorruptible.
"Ten drops of Dragon-Bear heart blood!"
"No, half an Immortal Body!"
"Brat, don't be too excessive. At most, I'll add one hand!"
"Don't forget, the armor on its body is also extraordinary. Although it's ruined, it's still a Dao-Grade treasure. It might not be impossible to repair it in the future!"
…
Finally, after some bargaining, in addition to the black gold armor, Lin Fan also received an entire Dragon arm and dozens of drops of heart blood.
However, there was some regret. The Immortal Dao runes on it were scattered, and there was no Legacy of precious techniques or Divine Abilities. Otherwise, it would have been another great fortune.
"You brat should be content. If you receive the baptism of Immortal blood, your fortune will be endless. With this, cultivating another strand of Immortal Qi will be no problem!" the Little Dog said, feeling a pang of heartache.
Lin Fan shook his head. That was not his path. He did not want to integrate others' blood and bones into his body. He wanted to cultivate Immortal Qi by himself, otherwise, what was the difference from planting a "celestial seed"?
Even when cultivating the second strand of Immortal Qi currently, it was the same. Cultivating it by himself was his invincible Dao!
However, receiving a Physical Body baptism and constantly pushing the limits of his current methods through this was also a rare opportunity.
At the same time, he put on the armor. Despite the numerous cracks on it, it did not budge when he tried to strike it forcefully.
It was very ancient, even stronger than well-known treasures in the Upper Realm like the Celestial Silkworm Garment and the Immortal Feather Battle Armor. If it weren't damaged, it would surely shock the world.
"Next, I will continue my secluded cultivation and bring that path to Perfection!"
