Invasion of the Heavens from Eternal Life

Chapter 39: Pretending to be dead and becoming a disciple

"This picture can't be damaged even after being soaked in water. It looks like a treasure." Then, Fang Han took the gold and iron box in his hand and looked at it carefully, and saw a small golden lock on it.

"This iron box is locked with a golden lock. There must be something precious inside. I might as well open it and take a look!" Fang Han said to himself as he looked at the corpse in front of him.

Then he bent down, picked up a stone, and knocked the golden lock apart with force.

The box opened, revealing a dark-gold pill about the size of a thumb. Nine holes pierced the pill's surface, emitting a strange medicinal fragrance. The scent was incredibly refreshing. Even more bizarre, these nine holes resembled acupuncture points in the human body.

It constantly inhales and exhales air, as if breathing, and contains a strange vitality.

This pill is probably the Nine-Aperture Golden Pill.

Fang Han did not swallow it immediately, but said seriously to Bai Haichan's body:
"Sir, you must be a very important person. I wonder why you have come to this point. I have buried your body and it rests in peace. As a reward, I will take these two things from you. We owe each other nothing."

At this moment, the corpse trembled, and then its eyes suddenly opened. It sat up and muttered to itself:
"The Divine Power Secret Realm is truly extraordinary! Fang Qingxue, although you have broken through to the Divine Power Secret Realm, breaking through to the Longevity Secret Realm is far more difficult. After a hundred years, you will eventually die. Only by stepping into the Longevity Secret Realm can the true path to immortality begin."

"Fake corpse?"

Seeing this scene, Fang Han suddenly shuddered and looked terrified.

If this person were alive, his entire body was swollen, his heartbeat was dead, and he looked lifeless, like a corpse. Even if he were a corpse, he suddenly spoke, which seemed extremely strange.

At this moment, the "corpse" heard the noise, slowly turned around, stared at Fang Han, and said hoarsely: "Little kid, did you save me?"

"You're still alive?" Fang Han asked in surprise, a hint of panic in his eyes.

Bai Haichan also noticed this expression, and this reaction was the most normal.

"Tsk tsk! Judging from your attire, you must be a servant, but you're surprisingly calm. You know, when seeing a corpse of unknown origin, many people's first reaction is to report it to the authorities. My identity and background are quite prominent. If you report me to the authorities, you might get a reward of several thousand taels of silver, enough to feed you for the rest of your life."

Bai Haichan bewitched him. His eyes were erratic, as if he was watching Fang Han's reaction. If anything went wrong, he would take ruthless action.

"It's better to have less trouble than more. Although you can get a reward if you report it to the police, you will inevitably be targeted and may even be killed. It is not wise. The best way is to make a fortune in silence. Since the lord is still alive, these two things will be returned to their original owners." Fang Han said seriously.

After he finished speaking, Fang Han handed over the "Dragon Hiding in the Yellow Springs Picture" and the Nine-Aperture Golden Pill, without any greed in his eyes.

Bai Haichan glanced at Fang Han and didn't take the two treasures. Instead, he suddenly sighed, "I didn't expect that at such a young age, you have such a clear understanding of human nature. If I had been like you, holding the idea of ​​'making a fortune quietly' and not showing off the treasures, I wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable state today! Alas!"

At this moment, his burnt face looked particularly creepy.

Bai Haichan sighed and thought to himself, "Where on earth is the spirit of the Gate of Eternal Life reincarnated in the Xuanhuang World? Unfortunately, the secrets of heaven are obscured and difficult to predict. Apparently, something has happened to the Gate of Eternal Life. We Immortal Kings are not omnipotent! We are trapped in the Gate of Eternal Life and have no freedom. Perhaps only true immortality can bring us..."

He put aside all the distracting thoughts in his mind and listened to Bai Haichan curiously ask, "Little kid, which prefecture in Longyuan Province are you from?"

"I'm from Longyuan Province and a servant of the Fang family." Fang Han answered respectfully.

"A servant of the Fang family? Haha! Interesting!"

Wen Yan, Bai Haichan's face darkened, and he was about to slap Fang Han to death, but he inadvertently saw the footprints left around him, and seemed to understand something, and his expression gradually softened.

"What's left on the ground is the power-cultivation method of the Fang family of Longyuan Province. You must have learned it secretly! A slave, secretly learning the martial arts of the master family, has violated a taboo. If discovered, there is only one way out, and that is death. Tsk tsk! It seems that you are not willing to be a slave! Fang family, Yuhua Sect, Fang Qingxue of the Divine Power Secret Realm, the slave of the Fang family who secretly learned martial arts! Good! Very good! You must remember: only by not being inferior to others can you achieve great success! Fang Qingxue, since you want to kill me, I will not let you and your Fang family have an easy time!"

Bai Haichan sneered, his burnt face looking like a ghost.

"This Immortal King of Creation really is a bit of a dramatic actor." This scene made Fang Han smile inwardly, and he couldn't help but complain. Perhaps some of the senior masters have special hobbies!

"Boy, I can see that you have secretly learned a lot of martial arts. I believe you really want to stand out. However, it is impossible for a slave to stand out. Even training and conditioning the body will cost an enormous amount of money, beyond your imagination!" Bai Haichan said, then changed the subject and said, "However, meeting me today is good luck, and it can be considered that we are destined to meet. I can give you the opportunity to stand out, but you need to help me with a few things."

"Senior, how about giving me a chance? What can I do for you?" Fang Han looked excited, but he was not blinded by the empty promises.

"Haha! This Nine-Aperture Golden Pill can help you cultivate to the realm of supernatural powers and lay an extremely solid foundation for you. I will also teach you superior martial arts, allowing you to make rapid progress. Whether you can break through the realm of supernatural powers depends on your luck and opportunity!" Bai Haichan said calmly, "And what you will do for me is to first worship me as your master. After you have achieved success in your cultivation, look for an opportunity to join the Yuhua Sect and learn the Yuhua Ascension Sutra."

"Second, kill Fang Qingxue!"

Bai Haichan said bitterly, "If Fang Qingxue hadn't taken action, I wouldn't have died! So, when you have achieved success in your cultivation, you must kill her!"

"What! Yuhua Sect, the eldest daughter of the Fang family, Fang Qingxue!"

Fang Han said with a look of shock.

The ancestor of the Fang family was once a disciple of the immortal from the Yuhua Sect. The eldest daughter Fang Qingxue has been learning skills and practicing the way of immortals in the Yuhua Sect since she was a child.

But he didn't expect that Bai Haichan would let him kill such a goddess.

"Fang Qingxue is the goddess of the Fang family, possessing the magical powers of immortals. I am just a humble servant of the Fang family. How dare I offend my superiors? Senior, I cannot fulfill this request!"

Fang Han refused sternly.

Are you kidding? Fang Qingxue will be my strong partner in the future, how can I possibly go against her?

Seeing this, Bai Haichan couldn't help but sneer and said, "What? Are you scared?"

"Afraid? How could that be! A true man stands tall and proud. As long as she accepts the opportunity offered by the senior, I believe that in the future, Miss Fang's achievements will far surpass mine. By then, I will definitely be able to defeat her." Fang Han clenched his fists and said, but he did not agree to kill Fang Qingxue.

After a long silence, Bai Haichan could only say, "Forget it! Forget it! My body is about to perish, and it is fate that I met you today, so I will accept you as my disciple. How far you can go in the future depends on your luck! As for your future achievements, just don't let Fang Qingxue have an easy time!"

His life had long since vanished, obscured by the divine will, and the reincarnation of the Gate of Eternal Life's spirit had yet to be found. Since this mortal had met him now, it was his destiny to become an immortal, and Bai Haichan didn't mind offering him a small opportunity. For his true self, the birth and death of worlds were but a dream, a bubble in his eyes; it was just a rare encounter with a destined partner.

"What's your name?" Bai Haichan asked.

"My name is Fang Han. Han means cold winter." Fang Han said respectfully.

"Okay, Fang Han, right? From now on, you will be my disciple, Bai Haichan!" Bai Haichan nodded.

"Disciple pays homage to Master!"

Hearing this, Fang Han was immediately overjoyed. He then knelt on both knees and kowtowed three times in front of him. "Bang, bang, bang!" The sound was dull. Each kowtow was real and sounded loud.

A great opportunity presented to him for free was a waste not to take. As long as he wasn't allowed to kill Fang Qingxue, it would be fine. Fang Qingxue had brought "himself" (the spirit of the Gate of Immortality) out of the Gate of Immortality, escaping the control of these Immortal Kings. This was a great favor to him, and Fang Han naturally wouldn't be ungrateful.

In this way, Fang Han successfully became Bai Haichan's disciple.

Of course, if Bai Haichan’s real body does not take action against him in the future, Fang Han would not mind helping him to make further progress once he becomes strong enough.

Seeing this, Bai Haichan nodded, feeling satisfied, as if he recognized this cheap disciple.
