Chapter 3225: The Cause and Effect, Flesh and Soul Pills

As soon as Lin Moyu spoke, the poison dragon's expression changed drastically. Without thinking, he turned to flee.

But it was too late. The space around him distorted, and he saw a sea of fire with countless fierce spirits within it.

An eye in the sky was looking at him, and then his consciousness fell into darkness.

The Hell Eye easily extinguished the poison dragon's soul, and the hell spirits devoured his physical body. Like Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha, only a claw was left behind.

Little Mei stared with big eyes, "Big brother doesn't want that treasure anymore?"

Lin Moyu said, "Of course I do, but I think dead people will be more honest."

As he spoke, he flicked out two undying flames, which fell on Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha's hand and the poison dragon's claw respectively.

Their dead bodies quickly began to regenerate.

The regeneration was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, they had recovered most of their bodies.

Then their souls also began to reform. Having just died, their souls had just scattered, so the reformation was also very quick.

In no time, a Buddha and a dragon were kneeling alive before Lin Moyu.

Little Mei stared blankly, "Big brother, you can bring dead people back to life?"

Lin Moyu smiled, "It's not really resurrection. They're actually already dead. Now they're just temporarily restored to life. After a while, they'll still die."

Lin Moyu wasn't lying. If they didn't go into hibernation, they could exist for at most 6,000 days and nights.

If they went into hibernation, that time could be greatly extended, but eventually, they would still die.

Death for them was already a predetermined outcome. At least for now, it couldn't be changed.

Lin Moyu said to the poison dragon, "Alright, now you can tell me what treasure it is."

Having become a revenant, the poison dragon answered every question, "Actually, I don't know what treasure it is either. About ten years ago, a shooting star passed through the Buddha nation. I chased after it at the time."

"The shooting star passed through the Buddha nation and entered the Buddha Realm. I also chased into the Buddha Realm, chased for a long time, and finally the shooting star entered Yellow Eyebrow Ancient Buddha's Buddha nation."

"I followed in as well, but in Yellow Eyebrow Ancient Buddha's nation, I didn't dare to act recklessly, so in the end I lost track of it. I only know the general location."

What the poison dragon said while alive was half-true and half-false, not completely deceiving him.

Lin Moyu continued to ask, "How were you injured?"

The poison dragon honestly replied, "I made a mistake in my clan and was punished according to clan rules. My soul was injured and my bloodline was weakened. Originally, I had already advanced to become a sacred giant dragon, just one step away from becoming a divine dragon."

Having become a revenant, there was no emotional fluctuation in the poison dragon's words.

If he were still alive, he would certainly harbor great resentment.

Lin Moyu now understood the structure of the dragon race. Dragons could be divided into elemental giant dragons, sacred giant dragons, and divine dragons based on their bloodlines.

In the dragon race, bloodline was above all else, with cultivation level secondary.

Even if an elemental giant dragon became a Dao Venerable, their status in the dragon race would still be lower than a Heavenly Venerable realm sacred giant dragon.

Regardless of cultivation level, elemental giant dragons were the lowest existence in the dragon race, equivalent to the collateral branches of collateral branches in the beast race.

They needed to continuously improve their bloodline, advancing from elemental giant dragon to sacred giant dragon, and finally to divine dragon.

In the eyes of the dragon race, although both elemental giant dragons and sacred giant dragons were called dragon race members, they were only on the periphery.

Only divine dragons were true dragon race members.

As for dragon emperors like those in the small world, they were called mixed-blood dragons in the dragon race. Some dragon race members treated them as cannon fodder, while others saw them as a disgrace, an existence even lower than elemental giant dragons.

The poison dragon was punished, his bloodline weakened, changing back from a sacred giant dragon to an elemental giant dragon. It must be said, this fellow was quite pitiful.

His ideal was to heal his injuries, have his bloodline advance again, and become a sacred giant dragon once more.

Then he would find a way to change from a sacred giant dragon to a divine dragon.

As long as he became a divine dragon, his previous mistakes would no longer matter.

Within the dragon race, the attitude towards divine dragons was completely different from the attitude towards sacred giant dragons.

Lin Moyu asked, "Where did you get the secret method for refining these children into human pills?"

The poison dragon said, "I got it from a relic. After I was injured and driven out of the dragon race, I wandered everywhere and finally found that relic here."

"In the relic, I obtained the formula for flesh and soul pills, as well as a pill furnace."

The poison dragon gave the pill formula to Lin Moyu. After examining it, Lin Moyu frowned slightly.

Flesh and soul pills were a kind of evil pill. It's unknown who created this pill. The only material used for refining the pill was living beings, and they had to be alive. Combined with a special pill furnace, it was used to refine pills.

In the formula, living beings were divided into several types.

One type was beings under a certain age who had never cultivated, whether human, beast, spirit beast, or animal.

This type of being had a clear soul, and their physical body still retained a trace of the innate aura from birth.

This kind of refined soul pill was suitable for recovering soul injuries.

The effect of one flesh and soul pill was weak, but if there were hundreds or thousands, it could achieve a good therapeutic effect.

In addition, multiple flesh and soul pills could be refined again to produce higher-grade flesh and soul pills.

After re-refining, the flesh and soul pills could purify the soul. Once the soul was purified, cultivators like Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha could gain an increase in cultivation realm.

Although the Buddhist inheritance was different from humans, the fundamental Great Dao was still placed on the soul.

At that time, when the poison dragon was abducting boys and girls to refine pills, it caused considerable harm to the surrounding area, until Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha discovered it.

They fought a battle, resulting in a stalemate.

Actually, Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha didn't want to kill the poison dragon, as he didn't want to offend the dragon race.

The poison dragon saw this point and told him about the flesh and soul pills.

So everything fell into place naturally. The poison dragon needed to heal his injuries, Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha wanted to cultivate, and the two hit it off immediately.

Dragon Subduing Ancient Buddha and the poison dragon acted out a play together, seemingly killing the poison dragon, and then using this to establish the Dragon Subduing Buddha Nation.

Using the reputation of subduing dragons, they attracted many people to enter the Dragon Subduing Buddha Nation.

So the poison dragon no longer needed to go outside to abduct people. He only needed to act out a play every few decades or hundred years to obtain quite a few boys and girls for refining pills, actually becoming more efficient.

Moreover, they did it carefully, never being discovered over so many years.

During this period, all the soul pills they obtained were split equally between them.

Lin Moyu said to Little Mei, "Now do you understand everything?"

Little Mei nodded at this moment, "I understand now. They really are that bad."

Lin Moyu sighed, "They are indeed quite bad, but this is how the world is. For their own interests, people can do anything."

Little Mei seemed to half-understand. Lin Moyu didn't explain further, as it was still a bit difficult for Little Mei to understand these things.

Lin Moyu carefully examined the formula for the flesh and soul pills, feeling that this formula wasn't complete.

But he knew the poison dragon wouldn't conceal anything. "Bring the pill furnace here."

The poison dragon shook his head, "In response to master, I can't bring this pill furnace."

Can't bring it?

Lin Moyu became curious and immediately went to where the pill furnace was located.

The pill furnace was under the Buddha stairs, hidden by Buddhist light.

Under the Buddha stairs, within the Buddhist light seal, was a completely enclosed valley.

A pill furnace tens of meters high stood in the middle of the valley.
