Chapter 158: Hero, You Are Hurting Me!

Lin Fan's indifferent, calm, and fearless face caused the old monster in the seal to roar with rage. It felt a sense of powerlessness as if its punch had only hit the air.

Ahhh~! I'm a ten-thousand-year old Demon God, my cultivation has reached a heaven-defying level, I could roam freely in the world, do anything in the world. But today, when the dragon is trapped in shallow water, it's being bullied by shrimps. When the tiger has gone down the level land, it's being insulted by the dogs. You just wait, the day this old man breaks through this seal will be the day I'll pull your souls out.

Roar!

The roar of a powerful expert had to receive a befitting reply.

The old monster in the seal didn't utter a single word after this. Everything sunk into silence. But as far as the old monster was concerned, how could a legendary expert that had majesty higher than the heavens endure being played by an insignificant human, a feat that was akin to being trampled by ants?

The suppressed black hand tossed left and right, trying to return to the seal, but escaping from the suppression of Lin Fan's powerful earth energy was nothing more than a fool's dream.

Haha! Old Monster, do you still think you're so tough? Your arm has been cut off by a human. You have lost one ten-thousandth of your cultivation. I want to see how you will recover in these dangerous lands of the Door of a Thousand Caves that cuts off every bit of energy. You're just speeding up your own time of death, that's all. The frog burst into laughter. It was extremely excited when it saw someone in a worse predicament than itself.

But just as it finished speaking, it discovered a tremendous force bearing down on it. It immediately started begging, Hero, I'm sorry.

Don't waste time, how will you refine this arm into a pill? Lin Fan asked, clutching the frog in his hand. He was very curious about this frog.It knows so much. I guess I need to uncover every bit of its secrets.Remember, you have only one chance. If you dare to fool me, I will skin you and stew you even if you are a frog that has lived tens of thousands of years.

The frog was ashamed and angry.What the hell is wrong with this human? I have already shown that I am quite knowledgeable and experienced, he ought to be respectful to me. He should bow to me a hundred times at least; I might give him some advantage if I'm in a good mood.

But this human has been holding me and telling me that he would peel and stew me. He is really not giving a bit of face.

I may be a frog, but I don't want to lose face.

Hero, I would never deceive you. However, you need to promise me that, as long as I refine the ten-thousand-year old monster's arm into a pill, you will let me go, the frog put forward its conditions. It had made a mistake in judging Lin Fan. It originally believed that since Lin Fan's cultivation was lower than its own, it could deal with Lin Fan at its will, but it never expected to be dealt with instead.

As far as the frog was concerned, this was simply a disgrace. Its tens of thousands of years of experience had gone down the drain.

But at this moment, the frog's small eyes bulged wide as if it had seen something terrifying. The human before it suddenly took out the Imperial Cauldron of the Heavenly River, then the Tai Sovereign Sword, as well as a pile of ingredients.

What does he want to do?

Hero, it's better to lay it all out if you have something on your mind. What are you doing? The frog was growing anxious. It was having a bad feeling as if something terrible was about to happen.

Lin Fan pointed the sword at the frog and gestured a motion of cutting as he said with a calm expression, Nothing, I was just checking where I should cut you so as to not harm the meat.

Between delicacies and pills, I will always choose delicacies.

Do you know a dish called Grilled Bullfrog? It's extremely delicious.

Heihei!

A gloomy laughter rang in the frog's ears. The frog immediately felt that it had encountered the most terrifying human of all. It struggled, croaked, and yelled, Hero, I give up, I will refine, don't kill me.

Then hurry up! Why are you still wasting time? Lin Fan shook the frog in his hand, making it feel dizzy.

The frog wanted to attack this human head-on, but it was weaker than the other party. Ultimately, it might be cut into pieces. It very much wanted to live.

Darling, wait for me. I will definitely come back to find you.

Croak! Croak!

The frog croaked as its cheeks bulged. Then, it opened its mouth as a small cauldron flew out from inside before growing bigger in the air slowly.

Your cauldron is pretty good.

The frog triumphantly said, That's natural. This is the Alchemical Cauldron of Wood and Fire, I found it in a secret realm of the Thousand Caves. It can even refine Heaven-class pills

Suddenly, it seemed to have thought of something and shut its mouth at once, a little flustered. It opened its mouth again as an azure-colored dragon flew out, circling around the cauldron and breathing flames.

Hero, please put the hand in the cauldron. I'll refine an upper-grade Earth-class pill for you, the frog requested.

Lin Fan, controlling his earth energy, put the arm in the alchemical cauldron without a moment of hesitation. He was very interested in this alchemical cauldron, and even more so in the flames.

Especially these flames, which gave the impression that they could burn everything and anything. Obviously, it wasn't an ordinary treasure.

This frog has been in the dangerous lands of the Door of a Thousand Caves for tens of thousands of years. It's completely impossible for it to not have good stuff. However, the only drawback about it is that it has reached just this level after cultivating for so long.

Perhaps this frog has not been lying to me. Perhaps bloodline is indeed the most important part of cultivation.

An ordinary frog cultivating to the seventh stage of the Earth Star Border Realm is already scary enough.

After no longer being suppressed by the earth energy, the ten-thousand-year-old Dark Nether Python's hand smashed against the walls of the Alchemical Cauldron of Wood and Fire constantly as a roar reverberated from inside the seal.

You fu***** bastards! the old monster roared in anger. The human and the frog were refining its hand right in front of it, and all it could do was watch powerlessly.

Although the seal had weakened, the demon energy that it had just released was already its limit, and it was still not Lin Fan's opponent. So, releasing the demon energy again would be tantamount to serving itself on a silver platter just to get weakened even more.

Haha, Old Monster, if you have the balls, why don't you try again? I can refine as many times as you try. The body of a Dark Nether Python is a great tonic, especially from the likes of a ten-thousand-year-old Dark Nether Python. If I can refine you completely, I can refine a pill that would go beyond the Heaven class.

Smack!

Lin Fan smacked the frog's head. Stop your nonsense and focus on refining.

The frog was terrified. It nodded again and again. Hero, please forgive me. I understand! But I am lacking a few spiritual herbs, I wonder Hero, don't stare at me, I have them.

Originally, it didn't want to waste its own spiritual herbs, but when it noticed Lin Fan's gaze, its heart started pounding in fear.

This is really horrifying.

What kind of bandit have I encountered?

It opened its mouth again, and several spiritual herbs flew out of its mouth. One of the spiritual herbs was like an ice flower. The air seemed to have started freezing just as it appeared.

This is the Earth Crystal of Ice. Lin Fan hadn't expected for this frog to be so rich.It seems I will be a bit busy after this.

The Earth Crystal of Ice was a spiritual herb that grew underground by drawing the cold energy from underground. It grew one petal in ten years and three in a hundred years, entering the maturation period. This kind of spirit herb could only be found in the south pole or north pole. But to Lin Fan's surprise, he found this kind of herb in the lands of the Door of a Thousand Caves. This was a big discovery.

As a few more fire dragons kept breathing flames, the alchemical cauldron started humming.

It's done.

The frog roared as the flame dragon twining around the alchemical cauldron exploded into a sea of flame that enveloped the alchemical cauldron before slowly dissipating away. It gave the impression that it had been absorbed by the alchemical cauldron.

In the next moment, a pill floated out from the cauldron.

Lin Fan immediately grabbed it and inspected it meticulously. The pill was completely black, but there were several silver lines on it. When Lin Fan felt it out, it felt a bit cold.

Hero, this is a high-grade Earth-class pill, Spirit Python Soaring Dragon Pill. If I can refine this Dark Nether Python completely, I can refine a divine pill, a pill beyond the Heaven class. Once you take it, you will fly to the ninth heaven and turn into a heavenly dragon, the frog said with regret. Then, it recalled the previous request. Now that I have refined the pill, can you let me go?

Lin Fan asked, Can you guarantee that this pill won't cause me any problems?

The frog exclaimed, There will be no problem at all, I guarantee. I can lie to anybody, but I won't lie to you, Hero.

Lin Fan could indeed feel its majestic potency.I feel this pill can lay a solid foundation for me. It won't be a problem for me to break through to Earth Star Border Stage Six as long as I have enough experience points.

He might have had immortality and could ignore any danger, but Lin Fan didn't want to let go of the frog. If the frog ran away when he died, he would have really missed a great opportunity.

Alright, how will you guarantee that you aren't lying to me? Lin Fan looked at the frog.

The frog was growing nervous. Hero, I swear on my wife, I haven't lied to you.

Hehe, you are really good to your wife. Lin Fan smiled. He hadn't expected this frog to have a wife. Okay, swear on your wife that, if you are lying to me, your wife will run away with someone else.

The frog immediately retorted upon hearing this, Impossible, the love between my wife and I is very strong. Back then, many eternal proud sons of heaven pursued my wife, but she never looked at them and only chose me. Alright, I swear, if I'm lying to you, my wife will run away with someone else.

These oaths were nothing more than bullshit to Lin Fan, but he could tell whether this guy was trying to entrap him or not by the look of the frog's eyes, and the conclusion was pretty satisfactory. The frog was indeed trustworthy. Lin Fan withdrew from the range of the Old Monster and swallowed the pill without a moment of hesitation.

In the next moment

A majestic potency flooded his entire body, spreading to every nook and cranny of his body.

What a strong potency.

The frog caught in Lin Fan's left hand yelled in pain, Hero, please let me go, you are hurting me!

At this moment, Lin Fan was completely absorbed in the pill's potency. His arms swelled and his veins bulged as if they would burst any moment.
