CH 21

Looking at the two metal shiny fistsized red pills in front of him, two wriggling flesh-colored pills that seemed alive, and two rotten black pills with a very pungent smell.

Li Huowang nodded in satisfaction. He had put everything he could think of into it. With so many ingredients, it could definitely kill someone, leaving no chance of survival.

A stick of incense was inserted next to him, representing the remaining time of the year. According to his made-up method, he must practice at the moment of the year's end to absorb the spiritual energy that the heavens would send down.

Li Huowang sat cross-legged, holding the fist-sized red pills in his hands and ready at all times. He was about to die, but he found himself surprisingly calm.

Yes, he didn't prepare any tricks at all.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "pawread dot com".

Li Huowang understood that he had to eat these pills himself. If he didn't eat them, Danyang Zi definitely wouldn't eat them either.

Although Danyang Zi acted kindly during the New Year's Eve dinner, he had actually come to use Li Huowang as a test subject.

But Danyang Zi never expected that Li Huowang didn't care about his own life at all.

Li Huowang had long been indifferent to life and death. He didn't belong here in the first place.

His only purpose for being alive now was to watch Danyang Zi, this disgusting trash, be lured into the cemetery by him.

At this moment, Danyang Zi was sitting opposite him, also holding a red pill in his hand.

As the incense burned down, Li Huowang took a deep breath and stuffed the pill in his mouth, swallowing it whole.

At this moment, Danyang Zi stopped preparing to eat the pill and stared intently at Li Huowang's actions.

Li Huowang, whose expression was somewhat agitated, seemed to have not noticed at all. After swallowing the remaining two pills, he closed his eyes and put his hands on his knees.

Sweat flowed down his face, and Li Huowang's body began to tremble as he meditated. But his face gradually revealed an uncontrollable ecstasy.

"I have so much innate spiritual energy! This...this is...I understand, I understand!! I'm going to become immortal~!"

Danyang Zi heard these words and his eyes showed a hint of anxiety, but he still didn't immediately take the pill. It wasn't until he saw white smoke rising from Li Huowang's head that he hastily swallowed the three pills.

When Danyang Zi closed his eyes and started to practice the Great and Small Circulation Technique, Li Huowang slowly opened his eyes. He looked at his master with a smile that was even more triumphant than before.

When he saw black things crawling up his veins after his head began to emit white smoke, Li Huowang's legs loosened as he clutched his extremely painful stomach and laughed hysterically.

"Hahaha, baldy! Baldy!! You can't become immortal! You can only become a ghost. Let's keep each other company on the Naihe Bridge, hahaha!!"

Danyang Zi seemed to have heard him, but he didn't react at all. He closed his eyes tightly, gritted his teeth, and continued to practice the Great and Small Circulation Technique.

"You're still practicing? That's all made up by me! I copied it all from xianxia novels, hahaha, oops, my stomach hurts, hahaha."

Li Huowang crawled on the ground, slowly crawling to Danyang Zi's side, and looked at the other's pale face with a manic smile. He trembled as he raised his right hand and slapped him in the face. "Hey, are you deaf? I'm talking to you."

He slapped him again with his other hand, but Danyang Zi still didn't move.

Li Huowang tremblingly took out a pill and stuffed it into his own mouth. Then he felt a surge of strength throughout his body."I told you to stop practicing! Didn't you hear me?" Li Huowang punched Danyang Zi in the face, smashing his nose and mouth in.

Danyang Zi, covered in blood, opened his eyes fiercely and glared at Li Huowang. He waved his robe and sent Li Huowang flying.

"Get out of here! You demons, don't try to hinder me from becoming an immortal! I'm about to become a god! My ancestor will come to pick me up soon!"

Li Huowang, lying on the ground after being thrown, did not get up. He just lay there and muttered to himself, "He's gone crazy. His obsession with becoming an immortal has completely driven him insane. Ouch, my stomach really hurts."

He remained in this position, sitting and lying down, as time passed. The pain in Li Huowang's abdomen became more and more severe, and his body curled up like a shrimp in instinctive response.

"Ah, why does it hurt so much? How long will I have to suffer? I really regret not bringing a knife to cut my throat earlier," Li Huowang curled up like a shrimp, writhing in pain.

In the midst of the intense pain, Li Huowang's consciousness gradually became blurred. In confusion, he once again saw Yang Na's face. "Yang Na, are you here to pick me up?"

Yang Na's face quickly melted and reassembled into the face of his attending physician. "Patient on bed 14 has a blurred consciousness. Preliminary diagnosis is food poisoning! Quickly, bring the electric suction machine and perform gastric lavage!"

A very slight voice slipped out of Li Huowang's lips. "Lavage your uncle... Don't forget, this is a psychiatric hospital... Where would you get a gastric lavage machine... Can't you make your delusions logically consistent..."

After uttering these last words, Li Huowang lost his sense of the surroundings.

He felt very comfortable now because his stomach no longer hurt.

Li Huowang felt his body falling continuously but never reaching the bottom.

"Huowang, hold on, you promised me!" A hazy and urgent female voice exploded in his ear.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Li Huowang suddenly opened his eyes and started vomiting uncontrollably, supported by his hands on the ground.

A mass of deformed flesh mixed with black water, some hair fragments, and a few visceral fragments were vomited out by Li Huowang.

The mass of flesh lying in the black water did not move much and soon stopped moving altogether.

All of this sudden activity left Li Huowang stunned. Was he still alive? How was that possible? If he was alive, then what about Danyang Zi...!

At the thought of this, Li Huowang immediately broke out in a cold sweat and turned his head to look. Then his mouth opened wide. "What the hell? He became a god... what?"

He saw that his cheap master's body had completely distorted. His ugly head had split open, and three fleshy mouths had protruded from it, each with three or four smaller mouths nested inside. Their disgusting yellow teeth were tangled together and gaping at the ceiling.

In addition to his head, his body had also undergone significant changes. Feathers, stuck together with tar, had sprouted out of his flesh like thorns.

"What is this? Three flowers on the top, feather transformation to ascend to immortality?"

As this thought burst from Li Huowang's mind, the three mouths opened wide, and the voices of Danyang Zi's youth, middle age, and old age all spoke at once. "So that's it! I understand, I understand!! Hahaha!!"

With a bang, Danyang Zi's entire deformed body exploded, and the flesh and blood splattered all over the alchemy room.
