LRAB Chapter 1499 Gluttony
Chapter 1499 Gluttony
The butcher is dedicated, and in terms of skill alone, he certainly lives up to his nickname.
So he quickly prepared another ten pounds of fatty meat, but after packing it up, he stared intently at Qin Fan.
Qin Fan also fulfilled his expectations.
"I also need ten catties of cartilage, which should be finely chopped into a sauce, with no meat visible on it."
"Hehehehe, hahahahaha!"
The butcher's laughter grew louder and louder, and his chilling murderous aura stunned the other customers at the stall. The drunkard next to him merely glanced over before falling back into a deep sleep.
“Cartilage, is it?” The butcher grinned, revealing his chillingly white teeth. “Young master, you wouldn’t mind if I used your bones, would you?”
"You're going to attack me?"
Qin Fan's expression was unusually complex at this moment, pointing at the butcher with an incredulous look on his face.
The butcher laughed more and more arrogantly. He liked to see the expressions of despair on the faces of the ants, and he enjoyed even more the cries of those who thought they were superior being trampled underfoot. Of course, what he loved most was this kind of pretentious face-slapping scene!
After all, what normal Immortal First Heaven level expert would set up a small stall on the street to chop pork?
"You really want to attack me! Do you know who I am?!"
Qin Fan remained incredulous, but the butcher swung his knife sharply, and the top of a small hill outside the official road was shaved off.
Qin Fan's expression changed instantly, and he looked at the other person with a blank expression.
"It should be almost done."
This made the butcher frown slightly.
Before he could speak, Qin Fan had already whispered something.
"Let's do it."
The next second, Feng Mo, who had been ignored by the butcher, directly cleaved open space with a single slash, and the Dharma Body he suddenly released absorbed the butcher into it.
The drunkard, who was still asleep, was instantly awakened. As he leaped in front of Qin Fan, he noticed that the space between them began to stretch infinitely, and then he seemed to fall into another space, where another person was waiting for him.
"You are... Liu Bai?!"
If we were to say what the Drunkard feared most after awakening his destined body, it would be Liu Bai, because according to the original owner's awakened memories, he died from the sword energy that Liu Bai sealed within Chao Xiaoshu's body.
At that moment, he realized that he had been exiled to a spatial rift.
Because battles between immortal beings can easily destroy the world, most powerful beings would tacitly move the battlefield here. However, it is clear that the Drunkard did not enter here voluntarily.
At this moment, the spatial rift was like a torn piece of silk, with countless chaotic currents surging in the void.
Liu Bai's white robes fluttered in the dimensional turbulence, and the moment his fingertips lightly touched the wooden sword at his waist, three thousand snow lines suddenly lit up the entire rift!
That was his sword intent severing the boundary between reality and illusion!
Before the drunkard could even speak, his gaunt figure had already staggered out a hundred feet away. The gourd in his hand cracked with spiderweb-like patterns, and the amber-colored wine was evaporated into scarlet mist by the sword energy before it could even drip!
"Come!" Liu Bai's voice resonated with a spatial resonance, "Fight me!"
As someone who had just broken through to the Immortal Realm, Liu Bai needed to test his combat strength. He could sense that both the Drunkard and the Butcher were weaklings, even weaker than the Haotian Liu he had absorbed when he was at the peak of the Heavenly Evolution Realm.
Therefore, he felt it was necessary to instill in his opponent the unwavering belief in victory that comes with being an immortal powerhouse!
At this moment, the drunkard's pupils began to contract violently. He saw that the seven layers of the Drunken Dream Barrier he had quietly set up were collapsing!
Those illusions that could make everyone in a world fall into depravity were as thin ice meeting the blazing sun under Liu Baijian's gaze!
When the first real sword light pierced through, the drunkard let out an inhuman scream. The gourd in his hand exploded into a sky full of phosphorescent fire, but in the aftershocks of the sword's momentum, it condensed into an eternally burning cage!
The entire space began to collapse into the shape of a sword!
Every step Liu Bai took caused new branches to appear in the dimension, and countless sword-wielding phantoms simultaneously slashed down in parallel spacetime!
The drunkard frantically activated his Dharma Body and Heaven, and seventy-two Fengdu City Gates appeared directly in the blood mist he spewed out, but the next second they were pierced by a blue sword river that fell from the sky!
The river water was a personification of sword energy, and every drop of water reflected the mountains that Liu Bai had slain in the human world!
"It's a bit slow."
Suddenly, Feng Mo stepped into the battlefield between the two.
His right hand was holding the butcher, who looked like a dead dog. The man was no longer as arrogant as he had been when he faced Qin Fan. He was like a pile of rotten flesh, and his eyes had lost all their luster.
Liu Bai glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, and his figure instantly vanished into the void.
When he reappeared, the wooden sword in his hand was already pointed at the drunkard's forehead!
In that instant, the spatial rift suddenly fell into absolute silence.
The drunkard discovers he is being watched!
Every memory and every thought of his became a treasure in the scabbard!
Liu Bai's left hand formed a grappling technique that drew upon the power of the stars, transforming into three hundred and sixty transparent chains that pierced through the drunkard's Dharma body!
The most terrifying thing is the runes flowing on the chains, which are the character "prisoner" formed by countless sword energies!
"Completely terrified."
Feng Mo was very dissatisfied with the drunkard's performance. He shouldn't have been so easily and unilaterally beaten by Liu Bai like a child. At least if he had wanted to hide, he could have easily delayed for another incense stick's time.
However, when faced with Liu Bai's attack, it seemed to shrink back after just a slight collision.
That deep-seated fear caused him to tremble all over when Liu Bai forcefully tore open his mental sea to search through his memories, leading him to succumb to his weak heart.
Such a weak immortal realm.
Previously, when fighting against the powerful figures of the Heavenly Court, even when their opponents were corrupted by the aura of calamity, they fought to the last second. But now, Feng Mo has deeply witnessed the diversity of life.
Even if this drunkard and his butcher, who was as useless as trash, extracted all the immortal substances from their bodies, they still wouldn't be able to satisfy Qin Fan's desire to break through to the third level of immortality.
"Is it because of the destiny of this body? It forcibly elevated a piece of trash who shouldn't have reached this level to this extent."
Just as Feng Mo was deep in thought.
With the crisp sound of Liu Bai sheathing his sword, the spatial crevices were restored to a smooth, mirror-like surface.
The drunkard was compressed into an insect inside amber, sealed within the jade pendant that Liu Bai had just hung at his waist.
Only the lingering sword intent deep within the rift proves that a battle powerful enough to destroy the world once took place here.
When Liu Bai looked at Feng Mo, he nodded slightly and threw the jade pendant over. His figure then disappeared back to the Southern Jin Sword Pavilion through the spatial rift.
Although he unilaterally crushed the opponent in this battle, it was very helpful for him to restore his confidence as a swordsman, and he needs to reflect on it further.
When Feng Mo returned from the spatial rift, holding the jade pendant and leading the butcher, what greeted their eyes was the pervasive crimson lotus flames.
"Lord!"
The flames suddenly parted, and Qin Fan's figure was outside the sea of fire.
He showed no signs of fighting, and with Feng Mo's appearance, the lurking gazes disappeared. At least in Feng Mo's perception, no one was watching them in the shadows anymore.
"Resolved?" Qin Fan looked at Feng Mo.
Feng Mo nodded, tossed aside the jade pendant that sealed the drunkard and the butcher who looked like a dead dog, and began to carefully guard his surroundings.
"They are weak, so weak that they don't seem to deserve the level of the Immortal Realm."
"You guys are just too strong." Qin Fan smiled slightly. After all, there are differences even among those at the same level. When they broke through to immortality, they faced powerful figures sent by the Five Directions Heavenly Court. In fact, the powerful figures in the Five Directions Heavenly Court were already above the average level of immortals in the Thirty-Three Heavens.
And these drunkards and butchers truly lived up to their nicknames of being on the soles of the immortals' feet.
"My lord, was someone causing trouble just now?"
"It wasn't me who started this. Is there anyone who would find fault with a defensive counterattack? So let's not hold back and just make a scene and leave."
Qin Fan's voice wasn't loud, but Feng Mo knew that those who could hear it must have heard it clearly.
For example, the Master who has been keeping a close eye on the situation here.
He tapped his slow-witted eldest apprentice, Li Manman, with a hint of annoyance.
"Judging from his demeanor, I thought he was a reasonable person, but I didn't expect him to be such a reckless scoundrel."
Li Manman innocently touched her head and asked again.
"Master, Junior Uncle, according to what you just said, are the drunkard and the butcher dead?"
"They're definitely dead, no doubt about it." Ke Haoran said with a gloating look. "I've been annoyed with these two good-for-nothings for a long time. They didn't want to take sides, but they still wanted to reap the benefits. Now look what happened, they've all fallen."
“But these are two immortal powerhouses.” Li Manman found it hard to accept for a moment.
Because the Haotian World has always been in this delicate balance, although occasional conflicts may lead to the death of powerful figures, it is impossible for a great master at the Immortal Realm level to be defeated so inexplicably.
"And isn't this deliberately provoking trouble a bit...?"
"Is this considered provoking trouble?" Ke Haoran began to explain to Qin Fan with a serious expression, "Isn't a butcher someone who slaughters pigs? Doesn't he set up his stall to do business? If someone comes to patronize his business, and he starts killing just because he's unhappy with something, isn't that just asking for death!"
"But this way of taking care of business..."
"Slow down, it's okay if you go slow, but you can't be slow in your thinking. For us cultivators, is it a problem to cut ten pounds of lean meat, then ten pounds of fat meat, and then ten pounds of cartilage, and pick out the parts that are needed?"
Besides, with the butcher's skill, surely he can cut meat without understanding how?
So, dying like this is pointless.
Just as Li Manman seemed to have grasped the meaning, the Great Sun Tathagata in the Buddhist Kingdom gave a four-word evaluation.
Two idiots.
Anyone with eyes can see that Qin Fan started the trouble, but in this delicate balance of power, if this provocation can still provoke you out, then you'll have died in vain. Of course, the most important point is that neither the Butcher nor the Drunkard belongs to either side.
No connections, no power, no brains—if you don't die, who will?
Just as the Great Sun Tathagata was about to temporarily withdraw his gaze and first deduce the progress of the Great Calamity, his brows suddenly furrowed.
The same teacher who was educating Li Manman also fell silent after speaking only halfway through.
Both of them had already realized that Qin Fan's actions were not limited to this.
"let's start."
Qin Fan spoke to the little bubble, Wu Gou, on his shoulder, which was curled up like Xiao Wan.
Immediately, endless demonic energy surged forth, and a majestic and domineering figure passed through the void, accompanied by a poetic chant that resonated throughout the entire Haotian World!
The flames of war in the Nine Netherworlds burn the Heavenly Palace, and the Thunder Pool of Myriad Calamities refines the Hegemon's Ambition.
Ask the vast earth, who controls the rise and fall?
Blood-red banners flutter, ghosts and gods weep!
Without a doubt, Wu Gou linked with the previously separated Demon Realm Flame Wave and summoned the Demon Lord Chi You from it.
Chi You scanned his surroundings, and upon seeing the drunkard and the butcher, he subconsciously licked his lips.
He understood what Qin Fan needed him to do; with his current mastery of the Heavenly Demon Divine Art, he could refine high-quality Heavenly Demon Fruits more efficiently.
During the refining process, he could also secretly eat some of the residue as payment to the fruit farmers.
Without any regard for his surroundings, he immediately pressed one of their heads down with each hand and began to transform the Heavenly Demon Fruit.
The next second, the figure of Vairocana Buddha appeared here.
“Sir, you have crossed the line by doing this.”
"What do you mean?" Xiao Wan on Qin Fan's shoulder finally stopped limp and its transformed Heavenly Dao Imperial Seal form exuded endless pressure.
Then the figure of the Master appeared next to the Great Sun Tathagata.
"Your Excellency, I assumed you would abide by the tacit understanding between us."
"Haven't I complied enough?" Qin Fan pointed at the butcher and the drunkard who had begun to condense into fruit. "I didn't kill them right away. That's not giving you face. They were the ones who were yelling at me to fight. I was just defending and counterattacking."
"I can't just let myself get beaten up for nothing."
"Your Excellency, you should know what we mean. One Liu Bai can exist, but he cannot."
The Master pointed to Chi You, who seemed to belong to a different species from them. The demonic energy emanating from him had begun to affect the entire world. In the small town closest to them, some people began to be affected by the demonic energy and were gradually going mad, unable to control their emotions.
"He's just here to help me refine the fruit." Qin Fan maintained his smile, appearing very friendly.
Feng Mo, who was beside him, had already gripped the hilt of his sword tightly. Liu Bai, who had originally fled back to the Southern Jin Sword Pavilion, also reappeared here.
“Benefactor, this humble monk knows you are testing our limits, but that should be enough. Let him go back, immediately, right now!”
The words of Vairocana Buddha were full of commands.
The teacher standing beside him remained silent, clearly indicating that at this moment the two shared the same stance.
However, they may have misjudged one thing.
"One's ready." Chi You tossed the fruit from the drunkard to Qin Fan, who took a bite. In the next instant, a woman with an extraordinary temperament and stunning beauty suddenly appeared beside Qin Fan.
She looked at Qin Fan and asked seriously.
"Is this delicious?"
"It's delicious." Qin Fan had already swallowed the Heavenly Demon Fruit that the Drunkard had transformed into.
The stunningly beautiful woman wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, then looked longingly at the Heavenly Demon Fruit in Chi You's hand, which had not yet been fully transformed.
"Want some? How about we try to take one of them out?" Qin Fan's voice rang in the woman's ear.
The woman's gaze shifted to the Master and the Great Sun Buddha, and the gluttonous desire in her eyes, fueled by hunger, startled the two men.
At the same time, they naturally knew who this woman was.
She is Haotian! (End of Chapter)
