Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 265 Lin Fan Bitten by a Dog
Lin Fan was firm, stating that he only had so much money and was short of funds.

Upon hearing this, the puppy bared its teeth and said unkindly, "Boy, your soul was able to return thanks to my help. Shouldn't you repay my kindness?"

"Tch, I can still find my way home without you."

Lin Fan glared at it defiantly, determined not to give this dog any credit, otherwise he would only lose the upper hand in the conversation and embolden it to become greedy.

"Woof! I hate people who break their promises more than anything else in this world!"

In an instant, the puppy opened its blood-red mouth, its canine teeth gleaming like blades, and charged forward, biting his leg.

"I'm telling you, you damn dog, let me go!"

Lin Fan slapped the dog, making a loud clanging sound, but the dog was completely unharmed; instead, it tore a piece of his pants.

This shocked him greatly. Despite his physical strength, he couldn't even hurt this tiny dog, which was the size of a palm, and his hand even hurt.

“You’re the dead one…” the puppy spoke in a human voice, biting and refusing to let go.

"Shut up right now, or I'll get rough with you."

Lin Fan felt the pain and tried to swing his leg, even using his supernatural powers, but the little dog remained unmoved, its physical body abnormally strong.

In an instant, he suddenly remembered that although the dog's cultivation had been severed, its physical body was still at the True Immortal level.

Nearby, Yuechan saw the fight between humans and dogs, covering her silvery-white forehead with her hand. The scene was rather unsettling, and she couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Woof, what kind of supernatural power do you have that allows you to strip away the life essence of living beings?"

Suddenly, the puppy's consciousness jolted as a mysterious force invaded its spirit and body. It then quickly released its mouth and cautiously jumped away.

Such power, though useless against its physical body, can damage its soul, causing it to age rapidly—a truly terrifying prospect.

"Hey!"

At the same moment, a flash of light appeared in Lin Fan's hand as he summoned the Human Emperor Banner. Black mist surged as he cautiously guarded against the bastard.

He was speechless. It was the first time he had ever been bitten by a dog. It was really bad luck. If word got out, everyone would laugh at him. It was so embarrassing.

Moreover, even though his physical body was comparable to divine iron, he still couldn't withstand it, and a row of teeth marks appeared on his legs, with golden blood flowing out.

"Hmm, golden blood, you're a descendant of the Guardians?" The puppy looked surprised.

"Guardian?" Yuechan asked in confusion, hearing this name for the first time.

The Guardians, as the name suggests, are dedicated to protecting this realm. They made countless contributions in the ancient times, constantly fighting and resisting foreign enemies until their entire race perished in battle.

The most distinctive feature of this lineage is that whenever someone is injured, the blood that flows out is golden yellow, sacred and flawless.

Furthermore, the reason this race is so powerful is because their blood is extraordinary, providing them with invincible strength.

Back then, the Guardians were one of the four strongest bloodlines!

Upon hearing this, Yuechan was greatly surprised, finding it hard to imagine that such a race existed in the world; it was truly a story worthy of praise and lament.

"If you're a descendant of that lineage, then forget it, I don't want the things." The puppy hesitated, its attitude unexpected.

Clearly, the Guardians are worthy of respect; even in death, they are unparalleled heroes. The puppy is no exception, showing great respect for its ancestors.

Because it also knows a secret: this lineage does not belong to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, yet it is willing to risk its life for this world, which is worthy of praise.

"By the way, I think I smelled the scent of an elixir of immortality earlier. Could there be such a high-level elixir here?"

The puppy muttered to itself, its keen sense of smell instantly igniting its excitement. It ran out of the ancient cave and gave chase.

This surprised Lin Fan. The little brat just left like that?
"Junior brother, are you really a descendant of that lineage?" Yuechan asked, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at the man with a complex expression.

As the adopted son of the Celestial King and his guardian, her noble lineage made her suddenly feel unworthy of him.

So, she was the Cinderella, the one who married up!

"Smack!" Lin Fan gently tapped her forehead and said, "Don't overthink it. No matter who I am or what my status is, I'm still your man!"

"Ah."

Yuechan nodded, her snow-white robes fluttering, her black hair flowing smoothly, revealing a bright smile that was breathtakingly beautiful, reaching the pinnacle of beauty.

"Hehe, and besides, I don't have any guardian bloodline. It's just a physique that I developed later in life, and it's only similar." Lin Fan revealed a sly smile.

"Then you just..."

"Naturally, it was to deceive that dead dog, so that it wouldn't become greedy."

"You're so mean!"

……

Next, Lin Fan continued to cultivate immortal energy, embarking on the second step, using the Law of Death as fire, preparing to complete this great path.

The location he chose was naturally no longer that valley, where the life essence was too abundant and no longer suitable for him.

Fortunately, this place is known as the land of reincarnation, and it is not lacking in large tombs. The pervasive yin energy can support him to continue his cultivation here.

"let's start!"

Lin Fan calmed his mind and began his seclusion.

Soon, black flames erupted, engulfing him and distorting the void, even emitting the aroma of roasting meat.

Without a doubt, this was quite a commotion. The Daoist voices were booming and earth-shattering, as if they were about to tear the sky apart and sweep across the heavens.

If you look closely, you can also see that the fire contains densely packed runes, interwoven and constructed, enveloping him.

"Clang!"

The next moment, just like at the beginning, Lin Fan used his golden blood energy to create a furnace to refine himself.

However, the difference is that this time it is from life to death, rather than from death to life. Although they look similar, they are actually very different.

However, with previous experience and insights, it is much faster now, and there is no need to go through another brush with death.

Of course, this process was not easy either. Lin Fan felt an unbearable burning sensation, his whole body was in excruciating pain, and many large holes were burned out.

Most seriously, death and life are in opposition. Within his body, two different divine fires meet, triggering a monstrous wave that crashes against each other.

"If we can't balance it, let alone using death as fire, the divine fire we ignited earlier will be extinguished again," Lin Fan muttered to himself, realizing the consequences of this matter.

Two opposing laws of the Dao, like Yin and Yang, are usually incompatible and cannot coexist peacefully.

Fortunately, Lin Fan had long ago grasped the changes in Tai Chi, that prosperity leads to decline, and that everything has two sides, requiring the grasp of a "balance point".

And this point is his supreme bone. It serves as a dividing line, or perhaps it is where they merge and embrace, standing side by side in life and death.

"boom!"

Lin Fan's chest glowed, runes spread out, flames gathered there, and the light was dazzling. A Dao diagram soared into the clouds.

The ancient land was no longer peaceful. One after another, divine flames coiled around it, like chains of divine order, blotting out the sky and leaving people in awe.

"This kid is no ordinary person; he already has the rudiments of his own Dao and Dharma!" The puppy was moved by this sight.

Looking from this perspective, the firelight was filled with symbols and principles, and Lin Fan sat there cross-legged, observing and constantly correcting his own path.

At the same time, the process is slow and painful. The Supreme Bone is like a second life, bearing everything, and its sense of touch is very clear.

However, he did not give up and persevered step by step, with hope in his eyes and unwavering faith.

"I can definitely succeed!"
