Chapter 435 Gain And Loss

Dream butterfly was stunned for a long time and said, "So what if it\'s really as you said? If we eat the pill, can it still be harmful?"

"If there really is a golden mountain ahead, let\'s just move it away. Why should we refuse?"

Xiang Nan narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "If it\'s really just a golden mountain, then there\'s no harm in moving away. I\'m afraid that there will be poisonous snakes on this golden mountain."

"Meng Die, think about what we\'ve seen along the way. I suspect that behind these pill furnace incidents lies an unknown conspiracy."

"If you and I are greedy for these pills, in the end, we may never recover."

"Well said!" Suddenly, an old voice appeared in the distance.

Xiang Nan and Dreambutterfly hurriedly looked over, but they couldn\'t see the person who was speaking.

"Someone seems to be here. Let\'s go take a look." Xiang Nan pulled the Dream butterfly and ran forward quickly.

As they ran, pill furnaces kept rising along the road. At this moment, Xiang Nan didn\'t even look at the pill furnaces anymore.

The two of them ran for nearly three hours before they saw a thatched cottage.

In the crude courtyard of the thatched cottage sat an old man with a gray beard. In front of the old man was a huge purple-gold pill furnace.

The pill furnace emitted a strange fragrance, making people feel like they couldn\'t let go of it after sniffing it.

"Senior, was it you who spoke just now?" Xiang Nan looked at the old man and bowed respectfully.

The old man had a regretful but relieved expression on his face as he said, "Young man, it\'s really rare for you to have that kind of tolerance."

"One must know that there are very few people in this world who can withstand the temptation of medicinal pills."

Xiang Nan hurriedly asked, "Did you set this up?"

The old man shook his head and said, "I\'ve been trapped here for a thousand years. When I came in, I was about the same age as you."

Xiang Nan and Dream butterfly exchanged a glance and asked in shock, "A thousand years?"

Only after careful inquiry did he realize that this old man had broken into the Devil Sea a thousand years ago. It was only after seeing those pill furnaces that he started to feel greed and swallow the pills while advancing.

However, he discovered that the further he went, the better the medicinal pills would appear, and the longer it would take to refine the medicinal pills.

When he realized this, the pills he swallowed had already taken him a hundred years to completely refine.

However, at that time, he still hadn\'t awakened. He was unwilling. He had already spent a hundred years here. How could he let this hundred years pass in vain? In order to make up for it, he could only continue to eat better pills. He had to retrieve this book.

However, the more this happened, the more he couldn\'t let it go. When he had eaten all the way to the thatched cottage, he discovered that it would take two thousand years to refine the medicinal pills in the Purple Gold Pill Road after swallowing them!

The old man shook his head and sighed, "Even today, I still haven\'t completely refined the medicinal properties in my body. I will still be trapped here for another thousand years."

"The greed of the human heart is higher than the heavens. Sigh … it\'s too late to repent."

This old man was unable to move at all. Once he moved, the medicinal properties in his body would definitely be disordered and his body would explode to death at that time.

The old man said, "The medicinal pills here don\'t require that much time to refine. However, these medicinal pills are inherited. The first medicinal pill is the lead of the second medicinal pill. If you eat it according to the order, the refining time will be superimposed."

Meng Die hurriedly said, "Since we know this result, let\'s go back and eat again now. As long as we find that the refining time has become longer, we will stop. Isn\'t it alright?"

The old man laughed loudly three times and said, "It\'s really that easy. After consuming a pill and refining it, five meters away from the pill furnace, the medicinal effects in his body will dissipate."

"Will you be willing then? You will continue to walk backwards. Eat the second and third pills. You will be unwilling. You will always want to eat the last pill. The medicinal effects of the last pill will not disappear."

"Indeed, if you complete refining this last pill, the medicinal effects of the pills you ate will return to your body as well."

"But are you willing to use more than two thousand years as a price?"

Hearing this, Meng Die was so frightened that her face turned pale. She hurriedly shook her head.

The Life Pill and the other pills behind it could indeed provide life force and perpetuate youth, but all of this youth had to be wasted here!

The old man sighed, "This is a trap set by senior experts! Sometimes, killing with greed is more desperate than killing with a knife."

"I\'ve been trapped here for a thousand years. I\'ve been reluctant to let go of it for so many years, and I can\'t give it up."

"However, after hearing this little friend\'s words today, I was finally relieved and put it down."

"Trapped in such a place for a thousand years, even if your lifespan is eternal, what\'s so interesting about this kind of life?"

As he spoke, the old man actually stood up.

"Senior, you" Xiang Nan was shocked, but it was already too late to stop him.

The old man smiled at Xiang Nan and said, "Little friend, this old man was unable to break through this greed trap. This is a regret of this old man\'s life. This old man is neither unjust nor resentful. This is my fate."

"It\'s time to pay the price for my own greed."

As he spoke, the old man let out a long sigh. Immediately after, the medicinal effects in his body lost its refinement, and he quickly lost balance.

The old man smiled and his body turned into fragments that followed the wind.

This scene caused Xiang Nan to sigh a lot, and he could only let out a long sigh. That long sigh seemed to follow the wind like an old man.

"Xiang Nan." Meng Die grabbed Xiang Nan\'s hand and said apologetically, "I\'m sorry, I shouldn\'t not believe you."

Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Let\'s not talk about that anymore. Look at this thatched cottage. Let\'s go in and take a look."

The two of them entered the straw cottage hand in hand and discovered that it was actually a world of its own, a vast and open grassland.

However, there were only two things on the grassland. One was a huge ball, which should be the passage to the next floor.

The other thing was very inconspicuous, it was just a first-grade green leaf grass.

"Let\'s go to the next floor." Meng Die said.

Xiang Nan stared at the green leaf grass and asked, "When we saw the countless spirit herbs and countless priceless spirit pills on our way back, would we still pay attention to such an ordinary spirit herb?"

"Perhaps in our current state of mind, this grade one spirit herb is simply unable to move our hearts. We are even too lazy to look at it."

"But … are you willing to return to simplicity after seeing so many flowers blooming?"

"I won\'t take the water of an ocean, but am I willing to take a ladle alone?"

Xiang Nan pulled out the grass. The grass suddenly became dazed and turned into a wooden box.

There were some small words written on the surface of the wooden box.

"Greed is like a snake and scorpion. If you are a ferocious beast, put it down appropriately and the heavens will not treat you badly.

"Rank seven Life Returning Pill. Take it and you\'ll have hope of rebirth. If you die, you\'ll rebuild your fleshly body and be reborn again."

Xiang Nan sucked in a breath of cold air and took the Fate Returning Pill!
