Chapter 232 Revenge There is a cave under the cliff in the distance. Once you go inside, you will find a different world. Deep inside a cave, there was a faint light on the stone walls, and a huge and slender figure was vaguely lying in the darkness. "Your Majesty! I have good news to report!" The catfish spirit passed through the water curtain and ran in excitedly. "What's going on?" "Hasn't the king always been worried that after the military advisor was killed, there would be no one to make elixirs for him?" said the catfish spirit. "Asshole! What nonsense are you talking about? Am I worried that no one will make pills after the death of my military advisor? Even if there is no one to make pills, I am also worried if my military advisor is killed!" "Yes, yes, yes! It's the younger one who is wrong!" The catfish demon quickly apologized and handed over two bottles of elixirs. "What is this, my lord?"
"Ok?" There was a rustling sound, as if a giant beast was crawling. Under the dim light, the sound gradually became smaller, and a middle-aged man of ordinary build came out, wearing a gray-black robe, and took the pill bottle with a flick of his hand. Open the first one immediately. A strong aroma of elixir wafted out. "Huh? This seems to be the Xiao Yuan Dan refined by the National Master." The Crocodile King took a deep breath, "This smell seems to be even better than the one refined by the National Master." "Reporting to the king, today a little demon with little reputation brought these three top-grade elixirs to present to the king. I felt something was wrong as soon as I saw them. With his ability, how could he get such good elixirs? So I caught him and interrogated him, and then I learned that he asked two Taoist masters for them!" said the catfish demon. "After some more inquiries, I learned that the two Taoist masters also came to the king's birthday banquet because of their reputation. So I immediately dropped the work in my hands and looked for them, and finally found them!" "Asshole! I don't care how you treat other goblins and ghosts in the past, but this is my birthday. You are my guest, so you must not be rude to me!" "Yes, yes, yes... I have already invited the monster to have a feast in the king's cave!" The catfish demon was sweating profusely. He had originally wanted to brag about his own achievements, but he had accidentally gone astray. So he quickly said: "My king, look at the second bottle!" "Um……" The Crocodile King uncorked the second pill bottle. A bang. Suddenly there was an amazing fragrance coming out. "Ok?" The Alligator King was stunned, took a breath, and asked quickly: "What kind of pill is this? Where did it come from?" "These are the two Taoist masters. Oh, they also brought a protector with them. They presented the king with this gift. There is only one pill. It is called Lingyuan Pill. Eating it can increase your Taoist practice." "Spiritual Yuan Pill?" "Yes……"
“Spiritual Yuan Pill…” The Crocodile King muttered to himself, frowning and looking puzzled. I seem to have heard it somewhere. Suddenly, his whole body shook. That’s right—— He had heard from General Rat who came to him from the southeast that there was an elixir called Lingyuan Dan, which could improve one's Taoism after taking it. The Corpse Tiger King who had occupied Huizhou before might be able to make this elixir. Therefore, he secretly collected silver, the main ingredient of Lingyuan Dan. It was probably because of this Lingyuan Dan that the Corpse Tiger King was able to achieve Taoism so quickly. It is said that in order to eliminate him quickly, Emperor Yujian sent out three of his True Lords at the same time. Those are the three true lords... With my level of Taoism, I'm afraid I can't even withstand a sword from the True Lord. The crocodile king was suddenly moved. If I also got the formula of Lingyuan Pill, or became an expert who could refine Lingyuan Pill, wouldn't I be able to become the next Corpse Tiger King? In fact, the Crocodile King knew in his heart that although he was also called the Demon King, he could not be compared with the Corpse Tiger King who occupied an entire state of Huizhou before. The Corpse Tiger King was a real Demon King. Even when the ancient gods and demons appeared, he was still a great Demon King. However, he only proclaimed himself as such. How could he not be excited? "Where is the immortal master?" "They said they were going to go out for a walk. I have already given them a sign and invited them to have a feast in the king's cave." "Well done! I'll give you a reward!" "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!" The catfish spirit paused for a moment, then seemed to remember something: "Your Majesty, although there were people coming to your birthday banquets in the past, you never invited anyone to your cave to eat. Now that you have invited people this time, should you be a little more cautious?" “That’s the problem…” The Alligator King also began to think about it. Those who come to the cave to have a banquet are all distinguished guests. Some of them want to eat humans, and some don’t. Generally speaking, the dishes on the banquet will avoid the original ethnic group of the distinguished guests. Only humans are different. Humans have the most abundant blood, flesh, and essence. Some guests come just to eat people. If we use humans to cook, it may be disrespectful to the Taoists. If I don't cook for myself, I'm afraid the other guests won't enjoy the meal. "Let's use a sleight of hand." The Crocodile King thought he had come up with a compromise, so he waved his hand and let the catfish spirit go down. He then took the two pill bottles and sniffed and examined them carefully. The more he smelled and looked, the more frightened he became. He could not help but pick up a small Yuandan and put it in his mouth. His eyes suddenly lit up.
Then he immediately said to the yellow-scaled guard beside him: "Go and ask General Rat to come over to discuss it!" …… It was completely dark outside. There were many lights on in the pear blossom forest, and it was still lively, even more lively than at dusk. The demonic shadows and human figures kept shaking. Lin Jue and the other two were wandering around under the guidance of the rabbit demon, seeing this market which was similar to the human world but also different. "Most of us fairies live in seclusion, so we don't have many opportunities like this. It just so happens that we have to come to the birthday banquet of the Alligator King, so we regard it as an opportunity to open a market. If you have any spiritual treasures or magic skills, you can come here to sell and exchange them." The rabbit demon explained to them as they walked. Lin Jue also walked and looked, and asked: "According to your observation, how many of the monsters here are good and how many are evil?" "This... I dare not say anything... But the demons and ghosts outside are mostly small demons and ghosts. It's hard to say whether they are bad or not. They don't have much ability to harm people. Even if they do, they dare not act recklessly. If they meet a ruthless person or a master who can cast spells, or the county magistrate sends troops to clear them out, it will be over." The rabbit demon said as he glanced at them weakly: "If I hadn't really had no other choice last time, I would never have dared to run out and harm anyone on the street." "Um……" Lin Jue nodded. This also matched what he saw. Most of the demons and ghosts that set up stalls or wandered around were not very skilled in Taoism, and did not have much bloody evil energy. Even the things they sold and exchanged were mostly items from the human world. This crocodile king probably lacks strength, or thinks the time is not right. In any case, he does not have the ability to gather a large monster force in Qinzhou for the time being. After all, Qinzhou is under the emperor's feet. Therefore, they can only use this loose method to temporarily maintain these monsters. If one day it becomes enlightened, or the world enters a chaotic era and the human court and the nine gods in heaven no longer need to care about it, perhaps it will gather all these fairies and ghosts and gather them into a demon country. "What's so special about having a feast in the Alligator King's cave?" Lin Jue asked. "How would I know? It was only thanks to the Master that I was allowed to have a feast in the King's cave for the first time!" said the rabbit demon. "I was also scared in my heart!" "afraid of what?" "I heard that some time ago, the military advisor of the Crocodile King was killed by another monster. The king is in a bad mood. If I don't know the rules and accidentally bump into the king, what should I do?" The rabbit demon said worriedly. There was an unknown monster next to him, bowing to Lin Jue. It must have seen Lin Jue making elixir at the ceremony before and regarded him as a god in the world. The monster was simple-minded and thought he was powerful, so he respected him and bowed to him, also hoping to establish a good relationship with him. Lin Jue returned the gift calmly. But he didn't stop talking, and said to the rabbit demon: "It seems that you have heard a lot of news when you came here." "It's just chatting with other demons!"
"Besides the Chicken Immortal and General Rhino, will there be any other great demons present at the banquet?" "Of course there are some guests." The rabbit demon began to feel something was wrong again, but at this point, he had to answer truthfully, "In addition to these two, I heard that a rat demon defected to the king two years ago. He seemed to have come from the southeast. Now everyone calls him Rat General. Like the former military advisor, he is very smart and highly regarded by the king." "General Rat? Southeast?" Lin Jue paused, his expression froze. "I heard what others said." "But you're from Huizhou?" "it seems that……" Lin Jue's expression became even more solemn. He couldn't help but lower his head, and coincidentally, his fox also raised his head, and the man and the fox looked at each other. Not long after, the rabbit demon left. "What's wrong, senior brother?" The little sister clearly noticed the change in his expression. "Does the rat demon know the Taoist priest?" Luo Seng was also very perceptive. "Do you remember that the last time I went home, I was set up by a rat demon and was killed by the rat demon and a black bear demon on the way?" Lin Juexian said to his junior sister. "I remember!" The little sister's expression suddenly became serious, "Could it be this?" "I don't know." Lin Jue shook his head and said to Luo Seng, "That rat demon doesn't know much about me, but I have a grudge against it. If it is really it, it will definitely trip us up." "Master, tell me in detail and we'll see how to deal with it." Luo Seng said, not afraid. "If he is really your enemy, then isn't it just right? Let's avenge him here all at once?" "rational." Lin Jue nodded repeatedly. Then the three of them found a deserted place to discuss the matter. Lin Jue knew how attractive the Lingyuan Pill was. Even if the rat demon had a grudge against him, the Crocodile King would not immediately attack him for the rat demon, nor would he attack him, a guest who came with gifts, in front of so many demons. He had to be careful that the rat demon was smart and not let it ruin his plan. If used properly, it might actually be helpful. Lin Jue recalled that time... Luo Seng is right. If it is really it, it would be just right to take revenge at this time! (End of this chapter)
