I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

Demon Pill!

The Demon Pill is a peculiar item that only mystical beasts, born as supernatural species, have a chance to possess. It can absorb the essence of day and night, endowing its owner with extraordinary abilities. It is extremely rare.

In a sense, demons with a Demon Pill have immense potential, with a high likelihood of breaking through their limitations and reaching a higher realm.

Gu Yuan had slain several demons at the Red Moon River but didn’t find a single Demon Pill, indicating its rarity.

At this moment, floating beside the clouds, the owner of that Demon Pill revealed himself—a young man dressed in white robes, with jade ornaments at his waist and a jade hairpin on his head, exuding an aristocratic air, much like a noble gentleman.

Yet, a faint demonic aura continuously emanated, proving he was not of the Human Race.

At this moment, the light of the Demon Pill above his head shone brightly, occasionally sending down flashes of electricity, disturbing the spiritual artifacts in the hands of several women.

The women found themselves caught off guard, and during the magical combat, they retreated step by step.

"Hahaha, Lady, now with Brother Bai’s help, your spiritual artifacts are useless. You’re no match for us. Why not surrender quickly, hand over the Spirit Pearls, and have some fun with me? Perhaps you may save a life!"

On the clouds above, the Golden Toad couldn’t help but laugh heartily, taunting the beautiful woman in front of him.

The beautiful woman had a peach-like complexion, a full, alluring figure, appearing even more enchanting than the woman who captured Gu Yuan. What was most peculiar was the solid and nimble aura around her, without a trace of hollowness, as if achieved through painstaking cultivation, solid as a rock.

However, her magical combat skills were rather average, seemingly only proficient in an illusion technique.

But the Golden Toad opened his robe, revealing his upper body, and all of a sudden, dozens of dense eyes appeared on his chest, casting a golden light that directly dismantled all illusions, breaking the woman’s most effective Dharma Seal.

"Crash!"

The woman’s face tensed, her hands continuously emitting Profound Yin Qi, activating a series of Profound Yin Seals to protect herself. Though it was challenging, she managed to fend off the attacks of the Golden Toad.

However, apart from her, the situations of the other women weren’t as fortunate.

The other women already had somewhat hollow auras, and most of their techniques relied on spiritual artifacts. Now, with their artifacts occasionally going out of control and lacking a companion by their side, fighting two against three, the situation was dire.

"Fellow Daoist, you are a supernatural beast. Why help this toad demon? Why not come ashore and become a guest in my chamber? We can enjoy together and rule as the Island Lords."

The leading beautiful woman, seeing this, became anxious and couldn’t help but shout towards the white-robed youth wielding the Demon Pill.

But the youth merely glanced at her coldly, seemingly disdainful, without a word, only occasionally driving the Demon Pill to disrupt their spiritual artifacts.

The beautiful woman’s face turned pale upon seeing this, but a wicked resolve arose within her, preparing to use her trump card and take a few of them down with her.

At that moment, a powerful Divine Thought, forming a flood dragon, carrying invisible thunder, suddenly assaulted the white-robed youth.

This Divine Thought rolled in with grandeur, unhidden, the flood dragon roared. Even the Mid-Stage Earth Demon Golden Toad and the Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment beautiful woman were aghast.

What an astonishing Divine Sense.

The white-robed youth tightened his heart and, without thinking, immediately took out a small jade-colored bell, placing it before himself.

"Clang!"

The small bell rang softly, emitting a deep jade tone, its sound resonating everywhere, transforming into invisible ripples, heading towards the sudden flood dragon.

The flood dragon roared continuously, unleashing thunder, yet the Jade Bell was no ordinary item. With a gentle sway, it withstood the powerful Divine Sense attack.

But at that moment, the color of the youth’s face changed once again. He rotated his body and transformed directly into his original form: an alien insect demon, about ten feet long, with bone spines on its back, eight legs on its abdomen, and a jade-like luster.

Just as the youth transformed into his original form, a dazzling sword light suddenly appeared, chopping towards the back of the insect demon.

"Clang!"

Like gold meeting fire, a brilliant flame appeared on the insect demon’s back.

No one knew what demon beast this insect demon was, but it remarkably used its physical shell to withstand the sharpness of the Middle-grade Spiritual Sword.

"Swish!"

But at that moment, the sword light in the air suddenly split from one to two, two to three, three to sixteen, transforming into sixteen sword lights, piercing towards a crystalline armor on the insect demon’s back.

Moreover, below the clouds, an elegant figure quietly appeared, and in his hand, an exotic Dharma Seal shaped like a Dragon-Binding glowed brilliantly, suddenly aiming at the Demon Pill atop the insect demon’s head.

Dragon-Binding Truth-Sealing Seal!

Green vine-like shadows, capable of binding a flood dragon, a massive Power of Imprisonment pressed towards the space around the Demon Pill.

"No!"

"Don’t even think about it!"

The white insect demon shrieked harshly, and among the eight legs on its abdomen, two abruptly severed, cleaving towards the Dragon-Binding Truth-Sealing Seal like flying sabers, their speed matching the sword light of Gu Yuan.

"Buzz!"

Simultaneously, the Demon Pill emitted a radiant glow, brimming with thunder light, and together with the two saber-like legs, before the Dragon-Binding Truth-Sealing Seal could fully form, they broke free and narrowly escaped, swallowed by the insect demon.

But the two legs disintegrated completely into ashes.

"Clang!"

With the Demon Pill ingested, the insect demon’s aura surged, and the armor on its back shone brilliantly, stubbornly withstanding the assault of the sixteen sword lights.

Having lost its courage, without any desire to fight, its form flickered and it darted into the sea, disappearing without a glance back.

"Brother Bai!"

Seeing this, the Golden Toad panicked and couldn’t help but call out, its eyes rolling as it intended to escape as well.

But how could the beautiful woman before him let him get his way? With a sudden wave of the jade ruler carved with mountain patterns in her hand, she struck towards the Golden Toad, and the two engaged in combat once more.

Both their hearts and spirits discreetly divided a part, observing the youth at the edge of the clouds.

This person, though only at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, had Thunder-like measures, seeming to be the key to the outcome of this battle.

"Crash!"

But at that moment, the entire shape of that youth suddenly turned into a stream of water, vanishing without a trace, leaving not a hint of his presence.

"Husband!"

In the distance, a beautiful woman entangled with an Earth Demon couldn’t help but cry out, but the vast sea was boundless, and no trace of the youth was seen.

...

...

On the vast sea surface, a large insect with six legs and back spines, jade white as though carved from jade, was swimming tirelessly. After a long time, observing that no pursuers were coming from behind, it finally let out a sigh of relief, eyes filled with anger and resentment.

"Damn it, damn it!"

"That damn toad dared to ask me for help without even knowing the situation on the island. Fool!" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

"Had I not been decisive, abandoning two legs, not only would the Demon Pill be lost there today, but even my life would be gone!"

"I must rest and recuperate well and definitely avenge this great grudge!"

While cursing full of anger, while fleeing, not knowing how long passed, a verdant, bamboo-forest island shaped like a giant claw came into view from afar.

Seeing this island, a trace of relief finally appeared in the eyes of the insect demon. With a flash of its form, it transformed back into the elegant figure of the white-robed young gentleman and stepped onto the island.

"The master returns, why not hurry to greet him!"

The insect demon shouted loudly.

Yet the previously lively Cave Mansion was now silent.

The insect demon focused his senses, only to see a young man in a cyan Daoist Robe, sitting cross-legged, looking leisurely at him.
