Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 47: Betrayal

As soon as Chen Lin heard the words "increase lifespan," he suddenly had an epiphany.

Yu Yuehai had used the Blood Demon Pill, and his remaining lifespan was almost exhausted. No wonder he was so anxious to refine this pill.

If this pill could increase his lifespan significantly, then he could smoothly enter the Golden Core realm!

As for the inevitable heavenly punishment, Yu Yuehai must have a way to resolve it.

The Golden Core realm was a supreme powerhouse, and even if he could only live for a dozen or so years, it was enough to make people's hearts race.

If he didn't have the lifespan-increasing pill, Yu Yuehai would never dare to enter the Golden Core realm, or else he would die during the ascension process!

If he didn't aim for the Golden Core realm, he could still use his Foundation Establishment Stage identity to continue living a carefree life.

Chen Lin's face turned even uglier.

This pill was as precious as life itself to Yu Yuehai, who had used the Blood Demon Pill, and he would never give it up.

Even though Chen Lin knew about Yu Yuehai's ruthless and cunning nature, he couldn't believe that he would do such a cruel thing.

Yu Yuehai restrained his furious emotions and looked at the five clan leaders, who were on the brink of death: "Don't you think it's a waste of breath to say these things? Moreover, where can you go?"

"Forgot to tell you, the recipe for the Five Elements Immortal Pill was made by me. Don't pretend that seizing the demonic being isn't for refining this pill. You need even more Five Elements cultivators' essence for this pill. You were planning to refine it too, so stop pretending to be righteous!"

"But, that recipe is fake, hahaha…"

Yu Yuehai's words made the five clan leaders' faces turn increasingly ugly.

At this moment, they finally realized that they had been played by Yu Yuehai all along, and their calculations had been in vain. They had not only been used by others but had also lost their lives.

"Good, good! You're indeed a mastermind, I, Han Yuhe, am no match for you. But if you want to refine me into a pill, you're just dreaming!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his body began to swell, and his internal energy started to erupt.

"Hmph! You want to self-destruct? Dream on!"

Yu Yuehai sneered, and with a flick of his hand, five small talismans stuck to the bodies of the five clan leaders.

After being stuck with the talismans, Han Yuhe's body rapidly shrunk, and his internal energy disappeared without a trace. He couldn't even move a single part of his body, turning into a standing puppet.

The other four people were the same, and they could only glare at Yu Yuehai with deadly eyes.

Unfortunately, their eyes couldn't kill.

Yu Yuehai's gaze swept across Chen Lin's body, and with another flick of his hand, a talisman stuck to Chen Lin's forehead.

Chen Lin instantly felt paralyzed, and his body couldn't move an inch.

He couldn't help but secretly lament, regretting his hesitation and not using the Thunderbolt Bead earlier. Now, he couldn't use it even if he wanted to.

However, thinking back, he realized that he didn't have the opportunity to use it anyway, unless he used the human bomb method, which would also result in his death.

However, Chen Lin didn't completely lose hope. He subtly sensed the sword qi in his dantian and discovered that he could control it.

After discovering that it could be controlled, he calmly stopped his movements and looked at Yu Yuehai with murderous eyes.

This sword qi definitely couldn't threaten Yu Yuehai, but it could open the talisman on his forehead, which was enough.

As long as he regained control of his body, he could use the Thunderbolt Bead.

Moreover, this would be even more unexpected.

Seeing Yu Yuehai shift his attention, Chen Lin's eyes moved, sizing up the surrounding environment to find a way to escape after using the Thunderbolt Bead.

At this time, Yu Yuehai's Foundation Establishment Stage aura erupted, and he stared at Ye Jingyun: "Since you knew the inside story and could endure until now, you must have prepared something. Let me see what your methods are!"

Chen Lin also turned to look at Ye Jingyun with an expectant gaze.

At this time, he had already figured it out – the other party had found him to refine the talisman, which was meant to counter the current situation. But he didn't know what the talisman was for or whether it could pose a threat to Yu Yuehai.

The Xia sisters were also shocked, retreating to Ye Jingyun's back with a frightened expression.

Ye Jingyun, on the other hand, remained calm and collected, as if she had an ace up her sleeve.

But before she could make a move, the Xia sisters suddenly shot out two black lights from their hands, striking her body!

Due to the close proximity and lack of defense, Ye Jingyun had no chance to dodge, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.

Ye Jingyun fell to the ground with a thud, her face filled with shock and anger as she gazed at the Xia sisters.

"Why?"

These sisters had grown up with her, and although they were servants, they were like sisters to her. She couldn't understand why they would betray her.

The two sisters' faces showed a hint of unnaturalness.

Xia Yunshu spoke up, "Sorry, sister, we had no choice. Please don't blame us?"

"Hmph, no choice?"

Ye Jingyun sneered, "Do you know what the Reversal of the Five Elements Blood Refining Technique is? It requires two groups of five-element cultivators, one as the medicine and the other as the guide. We have just the right number of people here. Do you think he would let you off?"

"What!"

The Xia sisters' faces turned pale, their eyes filled with suspicion as they looked at Yu Yuehai.

"Senior, is this true? You said that if we cooperated with you, you would make us official disciples of the sect and help our family, the Xia clan, rise to power. And you said you wouldn't harm Ye Jingyun's life!"

Chen Lin was left speechless.

This was ridiculous! Ye Jingyun wasn't much better, and the servants raised by her family could betray her like this!

What made him even more speechless was that the other party had been standing there, unmoving, for so long, without using their trump card. What were they waiting for?

He couldn't wait any longer!

Chen Lin knew that the opportunity he was waiting for was impossible, and he had thought that Ye Jingyun had a hidden card up her sleeve. But it seemed she was weak.

He had to try to escape, no matter what.

As he thought this, he was about to activate his sword qi to break the talisman on his forehead.

Just then, a fierce aura emerged from the other side, and a red light shot towards Yu Yuehai's neck!

This sudden attack left Chen Lin stunned, and he stopped in his tracks.

He saw that the one who had made the move was Zhao Zhengyuan, who had been in unconsious!

Yu Yuehai seemed to have underestimated the effect of his seal on a Qi Refining cultivator, and his face showed a mix of shock and anger. Without dodging, he directly reached out to grab the red light.

The red light was a flying sword, which seemed extremely sharp, but was caught by Yu Yuehai in mid-air, humming continuously.

"Hmph, you do have some skills, but you're still a bit short of stealing a sneak attack on me!"

Yu Yuehai sneered, his wrist shaking as he prepared to counterattack Zhao Zhengyuan.

Just then, an even more enormous aura burst forth, and Ye Jingyun suddenly stood up from the ground, her body undergoing a shocking transformation!

At this moment, her body had not only grown larger, but her clothes were also torn to shreds, and her entire body was covered in dark green scales that glowed in the night.

Chen Lin saw this scene and finally understood what the talisman he had refined was for – it could actually transform someone into this state.

No wonder the other party had been unwilling to use it; it was indeed too ugly.

However, despite its ugliness, the effect was extremely shocking. At this moment, Ye Jingyun's aura had reached the level of a Foundation Establishment strong practitioner!
