Chapter 89 - 89: 84 Cultivating the Monster-Insect
Within the smoky haze, faces wrought with pain continually surface.
As the pink mist swirls, the faces are twisted and distorted, making them appear even more dreadfully horrifying.
Li Fan, standing to one side, breaks out in goosebumps at the sight.
In the end, it’s the man in the Taoist robe who mutters to himself and pulls the smoke into his body, bringing an end to this perpetual torment. The man in the Taoist robe falls back into a mumbling trance.
The fourth round of potion testing finally arrives.
At this point, only Li Fan is left inside the Demonic Refinement Tower.
Just as the man in the Taoist robe is about to use Li Fan for potion testing, Li Fan suddenly speaks up.
“Insect junior brother, I heard that you don’t have enough materials for your alchemy?”
At these words, the Insect Sage halts his reaching hand, then nods subconsciously: “Yes, I’m short on alchemy materials.”
He says with a hint of guilt, “I haven’t been able to concoct a new elixir for a
long time…”
The Insect Sage’s voice trails off, and he stares at Li Fan for a moment. Recognizing the robe he’s wearing, he becomes somewhat flustered, “Oh, it’s senior brother! I thought you were an insect!”
“Senior brother, I’m so sorry! I will let you down now.”
As the Insect Sage speaks, Li Fan only feels the shackles around him loosen, and he regains control of his body.
The Insect Sage holds his head, bowing low, seemingly too ashamed to face his senior brother.
He chastises himself, “I’ve messed up again. It’s always like this. I can’t perfect my alchemy, and my cultivation progress is also very slow, I’m dragging everyone back…’
Li Fan steps forward, places his hand on the Insect Sage’s shoulder, and says gently, “Don’t say that, Insect junior brother. Your elixirs are very effective, everyone loves to consume them.”
At this, the Insect Sage suddenly lifts his head up, his eyes filled with joy, “Really, senior brother? Everyone enjoys the elixirs I make?”
“What, you don’t believe your senior brother?” Li Fan pretends to be stern.
The Insect Sage quickly shakes his head: “Of course I believe what senior brother says.”
Then he lowers his head dejectedly: “But I’ve run out of alchemy material. I can no longer concoct the elixirs that everyone loves.”
Li Fan pats the Insect Sage’s head gently and whispers, “Don’t worry, isn’t your senior brother still here?”
“Make your senior brother into an elixir, so everyone will have elixirs to consume. ”
“Senior brother, you…” The Insect Sage seems shocked by Li Fan’s words, his eyes widening as he looks at Li Fan.
Li Fan just sighs deeply and continues, “Although I started my training early, I lack talent, and my cultivation has always been low. All the senior brother sisters are fighting on the front lines, and I am the only one who can’t help.”
“Every time I think of this, my heart aches immeasurably, and I hate my own incompetence. ”
“So, turn me into an elixir. In this way, I could be of some help.”
Li Fan holds onto the Insect Sage’s hand, his face is flushed with excitement as he speaks.
The Insect Sage stares at Li Fan blankly, seemingly deeply moved.
“So senior brother and I are the same.”
“But senior brother is far more noble than I am, he is willing to sacrifice himself to help the senior brothers and sisters on the front line.”
“And I, I just run away. I just hide in this tower.” The Insect Sage pulls at his hair in anguish.
“No, I can’t just watch my senior brother sacrifice himself.”
As if struck with a sudden realization, he excitedly says to Li Fan, “Senior brother, I can make an elixir for you! If you consume the elixir that I have made, your strength will undoubtedly improve. Then, you’d be able to help on the frontlines!”
The Insect Sage seems to have found a target to strive for: “Alchemy, I have to practice alchemy!”
He plunges his hand into his wide Taoist robe, rummaging around.
Before long, he pulls out two golden elixirs.
“Senior brother, here are your elixirs.”
With his hands cupping the elixirs, a grin spreading across his face, the Insect Sage presents them to Li Fan.
Li Fan does not take the elixirs, but undoes the Insect Sage’s Taoist robe instead.
Underneath the broad robe, there is only…
An emDtv skeleton.
On it, only a faint trace of flesh remains.
The Insect Sage has been using his own flesh and blood…
To concoct the elixirs..
