Ling Zhenfei could also refine a large variety of elixirs, and naturally, he could refine the kind of elixir that temporarily boosts Spiritual Energy, but the elixirs he refined improved levels very little.
The higher the enhancent of Spiritual Energy cultivation, the greater the damage to the body, that's for sure.
Ling Zhenfei laughed heartily and said, "Number Two, you're really a big fool, do you even know what the Life-knowing Pill is before randomly taking it? Didn't Old Man Nangong tell you about the side effects of the Life-knowing Pill?"
At this mont, Nangong Chang'e shouted towards Number Two, "Number Two, don't let him deceive you, quickly kill him."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Old Man Nangong, are you afraid I'll reveal the truth? Is it really good to deceive a person like this?"
Nangong Changhe said, "Ling Zhenfei, you're full of tricks, don't think you can fool Number Two."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Number Two, you've been following Nangong Changhe for so long, you should know yourself who's full of tricks. This Life-knowing Pill also has another na—the Fatal Pill. It's an elixir that burns life.
The longer it's used, the more life and Divine Sense are consud. Using it so unscrupulously like you are... to put it bluntly, it's suicidal."
After Ling Zhenfei said this, everyone was shocked, especially Number Two, whose expression beca very unpleasant.
Number Two looked over at Nangong Changhe, whose face didn't look good either, and said to Number Two, "Number Two, can't you see? This kid is trying to bewilder you. He just wants you to suspect and distrust . If you believe him, you're being fooled."
Number Two shouted at Nangong Changhe, "Just tell whether the Life-knowing Pill has side effects or not."
Nangong Changhe said, "Don't be influenced by him. All dicines have side effects—that's what it even says on the label of traditional Chinese dicine nowadays: side effects unknown. He's just trying to scare you."
Ling Zhenfei could see that Number Two's Spiritual Energy was unstable, obviously already affected.
Ling Zhenfei continued, "Number Two, you can try checking the position of your Dantian. Is there anything different now? It's almost been emptied out, hasn't it? And your Divine Sense is burning intensely; it won't last long."
Number Two paused slightly at this mont, clearly feeling that the Spiritual Energy in his Dantian was being drained.
Generally, a cultivator's Spiritual Energy is stored in the Dantian and must be mobilized from the Dantian during use, but after taking the Life-knowing Pill, the Spiritual Energy in the Dantian appears on the surface.
Ling Zhenfei continued, "Do you know what it ans when your Spiritual Energy is depleted? It ans that when the drug's effect wears off, you'll be just an ordinary person. Do you know what it ans when your Divine Sense burns out? When it's burned out, you'll be a dead man."
Ling Zhenfei's words seed like a heavy blow, smashing hard onto Number Two's head. Of course, there was definitely so exaggeration involved. After the Life-knowing Pill's effect disappears, Number Two's strength will certainly be impaired, but with so ti for recovery, he can still recover.
But now, Ling Zhenfei had to say it this way. Otherwise, Ling Zhenfei and his three companions wouldn't know how long they'd have to keep fighting Number Two.
Number Two was frightened by Ling Zhenfei's words and said in shock, "No way, I can't possibly die."
Ling Zhenfei said, "If you don't want to die, then quickly stop your burning Divine Sense, and you might still have a glimr of hope."
At this point, Nangong Changhe shouted to Number Two, "Number Two, don't listen to him. He's just deceiving you. You're my right-hand man. How could I possibly harm you? Quickly kill them, and we can escape together. I promise you'll be fine."
Ling Zhenfei angrily rebuked Nangong Changhe, "Nangong Changhe, how cruel you are! To have the heart to feed your own subordinates such a thing, it's simply insane."
Nangong Changhe angrily said, "Ling Zhenfei, others may not know your little scheming, but I do. Stop with the fancy words; Number Two won't believe you."
Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "Number Two doesn't believe but believes you. But what did you do? You fed him the Fatal Pill yet didn't tell him the truth. Why don't you tell him that this is an elixir from an ancient Evil Sect, already classified as a forbidden drug.
Seriously, if it really had such miraculous effects, allowing one's power to leap so greatly after taking it, then why would it be listed as a banned drug? Have you forgotten how the Cult was exterminated?"
Ling Zhenfei spoke righteously, "The Cult back then did just that, taking forbidden drugs to invade the Central Plains. Although the Lingxiu Realm of the Central Plains suffered great losses, what happened to the Cult? Didn't they end up dying from the elixirs too?"
Ling Zhenfei's words made sense and were filled with logic, making it hard for others not to believe, especially since Nangong Changhe had no way to explain it. Not to ntion, even if he explained, who would listen?
After hearing this, Number Two's emotions beca a bit out of control, and he shouted towards the sky. Then, he let out his Spiritual Energy, launching a mad attack on Ling Zhenfei and his three companions.
Although this attack seed very powerful now, it was clear at this mont that there was no technique to it.
Ling Zhenfei shouted to Huo Jie and Hu, "If not now, then when?"
All being experts of the Dawen Realm, they were naturally very intelligent people and already knew what to do. Although Number Two was sowhat frantic now, and perhaps seed terrifying to ordinary people, in the eyes of these experts, he had many weaknesses.
The three of them launched attacks together, all targeting Number Two's weak spots in defense.
Ling Zhenfei's Sky Piercing Finger was already ready, and he took the opportunity to poke at Number Two's body.
Thud!
The Sky Piercing Finger pierced a large hole in Number Two's body, and the attacks from Huo Jie and Hu also landed, all striking Number Two.
Although the Spiritual Energy of the two wasn't as strong as Number Two's, hitting him solidly was still quite powerful.
Number Two was blown away. Ling Zhenfei knew these injuries weren't fatal, so he flew over, and in mid-air, a Dragon Tooth Dagger appeared in his hand.
The Dragon Tooth Dagger shone brightly, and as Ling Zhenfei flew towards Number Two, the blow from earlier had left him no ti to react, and Ling Zhenfei followed up, driving the dagger right through Number Two's body.
Number Two's body fell and did not rise again.
Ling Zhenfei finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked towards Nangong Changhe.
"Master Nangong, I think capturing you should finally reveal the truth, right?"
Nangong Changhe watched in disbelief as everything unfolded before him, hardly able to believe his eyes. His ticulously planned sche was falling apart at this mont.
Just earlier, if Number Two had just slightly used his full strength, he could surely have chased off Ling Zhenfei and the others, allowing them to escape smoothly. But it was all one move short.
Nangong Changhe now faced Ling Zhenfei and the other three alone, his gaze showing slight panic, but he was still Nangong Changhe, not soone an ordinary person could compare to.
