142: It's not waste! It's black bugs!

He ate about seventy or so.

Even with Fang Yuan's Earth Spirit Realm digestion speed, he felt somewhat full.

Burp~

But in the brief moment of his burp, the nauseous reaction in his body appeared again. This time, he couldn't hold it in and bent over to vomit violently.

Ugh—

Ugh—

Ugh—

In an instant, the ground beneath him was covered with large clumps of black sticky substance, reeking to the heavens.

After about a minute or so.

Fang Yuan had almost finished spitting out the bitter water. When he looked up again, he found that Wang Shijie, Vice Leader Zhang Beixuan, and the other cult members were standing very far away, with expressions of indescribable disgust.

Swish!

At this moment, Fang Yuan's face suddenly turned deathly pale.

The smell, the odor, and their reactions made it very hard for him not to think the worst.

Could it be...

"What exactly are these toad black worms!?"

He asked again.

His voice trembled along with his body.

Wang Shijie glanced at the snickering Vice Leader Zhang Beixuan beside him and shook his head helplessly: "Our Overlord Sect has an extremely powerful cultivation technique called the 《Magic Toad Technique》. After cultivating this technique, one can..."

"Get to the point!"

...This cultivation technique has side effects. Every so often, the practitioner will expel the filth and impurities within their body in the form of black worms."

"So it really was expelled!?" Fang Yuan's eyes widened, and his body turned ice cold!

"No! They are black worms!"

"They are excrement!!"

【Collapse Value +60!】

Fang Yuan couldn't believe that he had just eaten so much...!

Chest tightness! Anger! Regret!

Numerous emotions flooded his brain. Fang Yuan wished he could instantly swap bodies! He even had a fleeting thought of the rumored Soul Seizure!

He would rather let his soul leave his body than stay in this one any longer!

It disgusted him!

Extremely disgusting!!

"No! You just said that the more you eat of this, the better! How is it good!? How is it good?"

Fang Yuan strode towards Wang Shijie, like a drowning person desperately searching for hope of survival!

Wang Shijie and the other couldn't possibly let him get close and quickly flashed further away.

From a distance.

He shouted to him: "In our Overlord Sect, there's a custom. If a new disciple eats someone's black worms, it means he respects and appreciates you. You just ate the portions of over seventy people at once, which means you appreciate them."

"These seventy-plus people will also treat you well."

"Tell me, isn't that a benefit?"

?

Fang Yuan tilted his head, his face full of blankness.

The so-called benefit was that some cult members would treat him a little better?

He thought it would be some kind of fortuitous reward, like improving his cultivation aptitude or opening up more meridians... and so on.

As a result... that's it?

【Collapse Value +30】

Looking at the more than twenty toad black worms still in front of him, Fang Yuan's face had turned completely ashen.

"Little Divine Doctor, aren't you eating anymore?"

Wang Shijie flashed back, stopping in the air twenty to thirty meters in front of him in a straight line, with a look of concern: "Although you said you could eat a hundred, I think your limit is pretty much here."

"You are now our disciples, and I should also care about your body."

"Don't eat anymore. It's just not being able to do what you said. For you, I'm sure it's not the first time."

......

【You have already eaten over seventy so-called toad black worms in a row.】

【Now you know its true nature and feel resistant, but your Cult Leader is still provoking you under the guise of caring for you. You decide to—】

【A: Be provoked by the taunt and continue eating.】

【B: Follow your heart and don't eat.】

【C: Find an excuse to refine a True Immortal Pill, then seek revenge on the Cult Leader and Deputy Cult Leader who fooled you.】

【D: Change your mind and leave the cult.】

Everything that had just happened was actually a follow-up effect of "Fang Yuan begging to join the cult."

The heavy-flavored scene that occurred in the middle.

It was completely unexpected by Lin Sheng.

"Toad black worms never appeared in the original work. After all, no Heavenly Mandated Protagonist had ever joined the cult before, so their initiation rituals and such were not described."

"I didn't expect it to be so heavy."

"With such an initiation ceremony, why would it attract millions of followers... No, not many people can cultivate the 《Magic Toad Technique》, so there wouldn't be many black worms. So actually, most followers probably didn't go through this process when they joined."

"Speaking of which... As expected of the Heavenly Mandated Protagonist, no matter where he goes, he can enjoy high-level treatment."

Lin Sheng thought about these four options.

In the end, he still chose C.

He didn't want to see the heavy scene anymore, and there was no need to make Fang Yuan leave the cult. However, having him attack the two Cult Leaders was indeed a good idea.

"Come on, let's have an internal conflict within the cult and make a big fuss."

Not long after the words fell.

Sheng Long'er, in a black veil, pounced into his arms, looking up at him with her beautiful white jade face and sweetly smiling: "Master, it's getting late. Long Er has heated the bathwater. Let Long Er continue to serve you from now on!"

Her eyes were bright black, filled with fervent love.

"Hmm..."

Lin Sheng looked at the starry night sky outside the window.

It was probably Hai Shi, which is between 9 pm and 11 pm. As an Immortal Lord, he could go without sleep for hundreds of years without issue, but years of habit made him prefer to bathe and rest when it was late at night.

"Okay."

He nodded, then saw Sheng Long'er gently clap her hands. In an instant, the world spun and the scene changed.

In the blink of an eye.

The two of them had appeared beside a large circular bathtub emitting mystical misty air.

"Master, please focus on what you need to do. Just leave the rest to Long Er."

Sheng Long'er smiled sweetly, and her fair jade hands moved smoothly and skillfully.

Meanwhile.

In the backstage of the Cloud City auction house far away.

In this square transparent formation, Fang Yuan had already made his choice.

"Forget it, the initiation ceremony will end here."

He used magic to purify the filth on his body, then suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart towards Cult Leader Wang Shijie and Deputy Cult Leader Vice Leader Zhang Beixuan, and stepped forward to bow to them.

"New disciple Fang Yuan, greets the two Cult Leaders."

Both of them smiled, satisfied with Fang Yuan's attitude.

Vice Leader Zhang Beixuan even laughed heartily: "No need to be so polite. It is our sect's blessing that Little Divine Doctor can join us. However, Little Divine Doctor, you also know that our sect urgently needs your pill refining ability. I am very curious, how efficient are you at refining Ascension Pills normally?"

"As long as the materials are sufficient, I can refine at least thirty pills within a day!"

"Hiss... Is that true?"

"Hehe."

A glint flashed in Fang Yuan's eyes, but he smiled on the surface: "I have just joined this sect and want to work hard to contribute to it."

"If the two sirs don't believe me, I can immediately make Ascension Pills now!"

He said Ascension Pills, but it was actually True Immortal Pills.

He planned to take one immediately after making it. By then, he would have the ability to retaliate against these two!

Although this pill, like the Ascension Pill, had too many side effects and would inevitably lead to death after consumption.

But Fang Yuan couldn't care about that anymore.

They misled him into eating such filth. He swore he wouldn't be human if he didn't avenge this hatred!
