Starting as a stray dog, I embarked on a journey of cultivation.

But in the blink of an eye, the pair of dog eyes outside the window had vanished.

Xiao Hai blinked a few times, thinking he was seeing things.

I'm afraid I'm hallucinating in my current situation.

Early the next morning.

Master Fuhai summoned all his remaining disciples to the courtyard.

The disciples stood in neat rows, not daring to be the slightest bit lax.

Who knows if another unlucky soul will be chosen by that villain this time and become a new ghost?

They waited for a long time, but Xiao Hai didn't appear, so they breathed a sigh of relief.

Master Fuhai then pulled a porcelain bottle from his robes and said, "Everyone has worked hard lately, so this time I'll give you some even better pills!"

The disciples were all dumbfounded as they watched Master Fuhai pour out the golden pills.

"Master, what kind of pill is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

One of the bolder disciples asked out of curiosity.

Master Fuhai smiled slightly and said, "The pills you previously consumed were called Longevity Pills! The pill I hold in my hand is called Immortality Pills!"

"Its medicinal effects are more than a hundred times greater than those of a longevity elixir!"

Upon hearing this, the disciples became excited.

The gazes directed at the pills were somewhat drawn out.

"Alright, distribute them! One for each person!"

Master Fuhai handed the porcelain bottle containing the medicine to one of his disciples, then turned and walked into the alchemy room, as casually as he would distribute pills at other times.

The remaining disciples in the courtyard immediately gathered around to receive the pills.

Someone was the first to swallow it whole, and immediately a look of satisfaction appeared on their face.

The disciple, curious, asked, "How is it? How does it feel?"

The disciple took a moment to recover, then clicked his tongue in amazement: "This pill is truly pure! It's far more wondrous than the Longevity Pill."

Seeing this, the other disciples no longer suspected anything and swallowed the pills in their hands.

Gou An, who was hiding in the bushes in the corner of the yard, saw this scene and felt as if he had witnessed a large-scale drug use incident.

Gou Anben was somewhat puzzled by the meaning of Fu Hai Zhenren's actions, but the answer soon followed.

The first disciple to take the pill suddenly had a nosebleed.

He quickly tilted his head back to try and stop the bleeding, but the bleeding only increased.

In the end, not only his nose, but also the corners of his mouth, eyes, and ears started bleeding.

Blood blocked his throat, causing him to cough with his head down.

But this cough caused the bleeding to increase even more, and at first glance, his face was covered in blood, a truly gruesome sight.

Seeing this, the other disciples stepped forward to offer their help.

But one by one they began to bleed from their mouths and noses, and eventually from all seven orifices.

Everyone experienced the same thing.

In the end, they all collapsed to the ground, struggling in agony.

Once everyone was lying motionless on the ground, Master Fuhai finally emerged from the alchemy room.

Looking at the corpses of his disciples scattered all over the ground, his expression remained calm, and there was even a slight smile on his lips.

His gaze swept over each of his disciples, as if he were counting them.

Once the quantity was confirmed, a dark red fireball immediately gathered in the palm of his left hand.

"go!"

Master Fuhai pointed forward with his right hand, and the fireball automatically split into dozens of flames that shot out.

The disciples' corpses were struck by the flames and quickly burst into flames.

The black fire was very strange, burning extremely fast.

In less than a quarter of an hour, all the disciples' corpses had turned into black ash.

Immediately afterwards, Master Fuhai waved his hand, creating a gust of wind that scattered the black ash, and then turned and walked into the alchemy room.

Having witnessed the whole thing, Gou An sighed to himself, "That old bastard is really ruthless! He actually wiped out his own people."

But why would he do that?

Gou An tried to think about the problem from the perspective of Master Fuhai.

In the end, there could only be one answer: he was worried that he would be disturbed while he was switching bodies with Xiao Hai.

These disciples were simply consumables controlled by him using pills.

Once he successfully switched to a younger body and achieved his goal, he no longer needed these disciples to serve him.

the next day!

Master Fuhai came into the courtyard and began to set up some kind of formation on the ground.

Spirit stones and other strange objects were embedded in various corners of the formation according to certain rules.

Gou An, covered in mud, lay in the grass at the corner of the wall, quietly watching his actions.

He remained completely still, without revealing any trace of his presence.

The formation was set up for the entire morning.

Master Fuhai made several delightful adjustments to the formation details, clearly indicating that he attached great importance to this matter.

Furthermore, to ensure there were no unforeseen circumstances, he repeatedly sat cross-legged within the formation to simulate the steps.

Little did he know that in the most inconspicuous corner of the courtyard, a pair of eyes were spying on him.

Although Gou An did not know how to use the formation, he could still discern some clues from Master Fuhai's simulation.

Considering the shape of the formation, the correct answer is almost certain.

The pattern of this formation covered half of the courtyard, and the pattern resembled a gourd.

One big circle, one small circle.

Master Fuhai sat cross-legged in the center of the large circle of the array, while Xiaohai, whose body had been swapped, would be fixed in the center of the small circle of the array.

Once Master Fuhai activates the formation, he will be able to seize the opponent's young body.

How could Gou An possibly let him have his way?

Old people like Master Fuhai can live for another hundred or two hundred years once they are transferred into a younger body.

How many people will be harmed in the next one or two hundred years?

How many more demons and beasts will he have to harm in order to cultivate?

How many innocent flowers and plants have been harmed?

"Yes!" Gou An nodded inwardly, finding himself a plausible reason: "I'm doing this on behalf of Heaven!"

Didn't that old man want to get a younger body?

There just happens to be a young body here.

Of course, Gou An wouldn't take the risk himself; who knows if this formation would have any side effects on his body?

If there are side effects, and you end up living worse than a dog after getting the procedure done, that would be a real problem.

And with a different body, who knows if the panel in my mind will still exist?

So I'm prepared to let that scoundrel come when the time comes!

By the third day!

The sky was overcast.

Early in the morning, Master Fuhai came out of the alchemy room, looking to be in a great mood.

Following behind him was Xiao Hai, who was bound by black ropes.

That rope was no ordinary object; it bound Xiao Hai while also suspending him in the air, closely following the steps of Master Fu Hai.

Having been starved for three days, Xiao Hai was now too weak to struggle and had no strength left.

Master Fuhai walked to his position at the core of the formation and pointed with his hand.

The black rope binding Xiao Hai directly placed him into another array eye.

Master Fuhai calculated with his fingers, becoming more and more satisfied, and the joy on his face could no longer be hidden.

Once everything was ready, Master Fuhai quickly formed hand seals.

Immediately afterwards, a transparent light shield enveloped the entire courtyard, looking like some kind of barrier formation, isolating the inside and outside of the courtyard.

However, Gou An had already brought Lai Pi in last night and they had been lying motionless in the corner.

For these monsters living in the Monster Mountain Range, stealth is the most basic survival skill.
