Chapter 265: Chapter 265: Prolonging Life with the Great Return Pill
Translator: 549690339
Fang Lin was reckless and desperate, he was ready to face death for a sliver of survival, ready to absorb even a single drop of Immortal Blood.
Fang Lin was seen making a struggle to crawl towards the center of the Demon Beast’s forehead, where a faint crimson gleam flickered. Fang Lin speculated that the Immortal Blood was stored there.
At this moment, he didn’t care to confirm it. Fang Lin had only one goal in mind, to get there as fast as he could.
The journey was short, he only needed to cross a few steps. However, for Fang Lin, these steps were the boundary between life and death.
If he could crawl there before he died, perhaps he still had a chance of survival. But if he could not reach there and could not absorb the Immortal Blood, the Demon Qi in his body would explode, leading to his certain death.
Of course, Fang Lin was not going to let himself die so easily here.
Fang Lin already had the Great Return Pill that Han Yinyue had given him in his mouth. If he found that he could not hold on any longer, he would immediately swallow the Great Return Pill to hold on to that last breath.
It was the existence of this Great Return Pill that gave Fang Lin the courage to make a bet.
Fang Lin moved slowly. His legs could no longer stand, even his arms were bloodied. Every crawl brought unbearable pain to his limbs and organs.
Blood was left wherever Fang Lin crawled. His eyes lost their lustre and his face was black and blue. Even his lips had changed in color.
Because his internal organs were wounded by the Demon Qi, fresh blood periodically flowed from Fang Lin’s nose and mouth. Every drop of blood lost weakened Fang Lin’s vitality.
His vision began to blur, especially his consciousness. He felt constantly weary, and wanted to close his eyes and sink into a deep slumber.
But Fang Lin persisted, he gritted his teeth and continued crawling forward with his remaining strength.
Splat!
Another stream of fresh blood flowed from Fang Lin’s nose. His vision darkened, and he felt as if he was about to lose consciousness.
At this moment, Fang Lin was hanging by a thread. His internal organs were nearly ruined.
Gulp!
Fang Lin swallowed the Great Return Pill, then he collapsed on the spot and closed his eyes. His chest no longer rose and fell, appearing as though he had stopped breathing.
If anyone saw him at this moment, they would certainly think that Fang Lin was nothing more than a corpse, without any hint of life left.
After what felt like half an hour, Fang Lin suddenly opened his eyes, took a heavy breath and his silent vitality was suddenly revived.
“My goodness, that was close! This Great Return Pill isn’t as powerful as I thought.” Fang Lin exclaimed with relief in his heart.
The Great Return Pill did its job in the end, preserving Fang Lin’s life at the most critical moment.
However, the effect of this Great Return Pill was slower than expected. It almost caused Fang Lin’s demise. If Fang Lin had refined the Great Return Pill himself, its effect would have been immediately realized upon ingestion.
But there was no choice, probably the skill of the person who refined this Great Return Pill was limited. To be able to reach this level was somewhat acceptable.
No matter what, Fang Lin was temporarily saved from death.
After catching his breath, Fang Lin once again mustered his strength and crawled towards the center of the Demon Beast’s forehead.
Though the Great Return Pill could temporarily preserve Fang Lin’s life, it couldn’t dispel the enormous Demon Qi in his body. Once the effect of the Great Return Pill was over, death would still be inevitable.
Given the severity of Fang Lin’s injuries, the Great Return Pill could only be used for emergency treatment and not for complete recovery.
Thankfully, the Great Return Pill had restored some of Fang Lin’s strength and enabled him to reach the space between the Demon Beast’s brows.
Once within reach, Fang Lin drew a sword and fiercely plunged it in.
Crack!
The sword immediately shattered. The Demon Beast’s brow only had a small white dot where the sword made contact.
Fang Lin was stupefied. The Immortal Blood was just beneath, but the Demon Beast’s hide was too tough to penetrate. What could possibly be done?
The feeling of being on a treasure mountain without being able to collect the treasure was making Fang Lin want to weep but shed no tears.
“Am I supposed to use that sword?” Fang Lin worried. That blood-colored longsword could probably break through the Demon Beast’s skin, but if it suddenly went berserk and absorbed the Immortal Blood, then he, Fang Lin, would indeed be doomed.
After all, Fang Lin was not able to control the blood-colored longsword at all. When he held it in his hand, it even absorbed his own blood. If he used it to break the skin of this Demon Beast, he estimated that the Immortal Blood would certainly be absorbed by it.
Fang Lin had no time to hesitate around, so he immediately came up with a solution, he took out a jade bottle and poured some corrosive fluid onto the Demon Beast’s skin.
Sizzle Sizzle Sizzle
Immediately, the sound of corrosion was heard. The Demon Beast’s skin was indeed tough, but it could not resist the corrosion of this venom. Moreover, this Demon Beast had been dead for countless years, making it especially susceptible to the venomous fluid.
In a short while, a large hole was corroded at the center of the Demon Beast’s brow. However, there was no fresh blood from the Demon Beast, so the skin underneath was left empty.
Fang Lin waited patiently for a moment, and finally saw a fist-sized, red blood orb floating above the brow bone of the Demon Beast.
Above the blood orb, the vague image of a Demon Beast roared, its overwhelming aura hit Fang Lin squarely.
This was a drop of Immortal Blood, containing all the power and life essence of this Demon Beast, and also had the natural strength of the Demon Beast infused in it.
Even after endless years, this drop of Immortal Blood still existed and could endure until it got absorbed.
Fang Lin’s face revealed hints of joy, he stretched out his hand right away, intending to clasp that Immortal Blood in his palm.
The Immortal Blood seemed to possess a certain consciousness as it moved slightly and dodged Fang Lin’s hand.
“Hmm?” Fang Lin furrowed his brows. This Immortal Blood seemed to have developed a sense of consciousness, something that Fang Lin had not expected.
The Immortal Blood flickered above the brow bone of the Demon Beast, as if waiting for the opportunity to fly out. Just as it was about to fly out, Fang Lin opened his mouth wide and caught it. He then swallowed it directly without saying a word.
The next moment, Fang Lin felt as though his entire body was about to explode. It felt as though something within him was violently smashing against the walls, trying to escape from his body.
There was no doubt, it had to be the Immortal Blood.
Fang Lin gritted his teeth, mobilized all the Inner Strength left in his body, and stomped down to refine it.
Boom!
Fang Lin’s body suddenly was enclosed in a ball of light, shielding him from the outside.
“shit!”
From not far away, Feng Qianqiu flew at full speed towards him, but he was a step too late. Fang Lin had already been enveloped by the ball of light, and nothing inside could be seen from the outside.
Feng Qianqiu’s face was gloomy, he had just suppressed the Demon Qi that had invaded his body. When he saw Fang Lin extracting the Immortal Blood, he immediately intended to stop him, but he didn’t expect the Immortal Blood to pop out on its own and get swallowed by Fang Lin.
