Chapter 416 - Plague Versus Divine Farmer
Chapter 416: Plague Versus Divine Farmer
The dog paw came and disappeared quickly. It disappeared into thin air!
The darkened sky cleared up. Everyone stared at the now-disappeared dog paw and remained transfixed. This was too unrealistic. It was as if they were hallucinating.
However, the black bear that had now disappeared was proof that it was all real.
“This…this…this…”
The demons who came with the black bear had not seen this before. They watched their lord being strangely captured by a dog paw. They were terrified. Those demons who were still in human form had jumped back to their original form.
So shocking! This was like a joke!
Continue?
How could they continue?
Their lord was taken away. How?
Daji remained calm and used her power. A limitless chill overwhelmed the demons. “Nobody can go!”
“Hmph!” Fire Phoenix scoffed as the red wings opened up behind her. Flames were all over.
Wild Boar Demon and the rest shouted, “Everyone, attack!”
…
Dog Mountain.
The dogs around Blackie were just about to snap back to reality. However, they saw how Blackie’s paw was gradually retrieving back out. Behind him, a gigantic black bear appeared out of nowhere as Blackie pulled it out.
The gigantic black bear was already dead. However, the remaining Qi around the bear made the dogs jolt with terror. They resumed their statue-like poses.
Lord Dog simply reached out its paw and a Daluo Golden Immortal Black Bear Demon was taken back.
So this was what ‘hunting’ meant.
Blackie saw that the dogs were utterly stunned. He said nonchalantly with a cold tone, “What’re you looking at? Hurry and send this black bear to my master. Hurry!”
The dogs nodded and pulled the dead body of the black bear over. “Yes, Lord. We’ll do it right away!”
Li Nianfan was cleaning the bodies of the porcupine and goshawk. The fur had all been plucked out heartlessly, showing their bare skin. The parts meant to be removed were removed. It was cleanly done.
Li Nianfan was planning to roast the porcupine all over and then make a goshawk soup.
He saw Deified Dog running toward him with a massive black bear. He was rather surprised. “Wow, this black bear isn’t bad. You’re indeed a Deified Dog, you brought back a big black bear so quickly! How clever! How clever!”
Deified Dog smiled awkwardly. “You’re too polite.”
‘You’re mocking me, right? You must be insulting me, right?
‘Luckily I’m good-tempered now. If this happened in the past, I would’ve beaten you up!’
“I can make a stewed bear paw soup. The rest…can be roasted. It’s easy and convenient to distribute.” Li Nianfan made up his mind and started working on it.
“Nanan, Dragin, you two go and help build more grills. Spread them out so that I can grill them separately. This is so that they can spread out as they eat.”
“Yes, brother!”
Deified Dog quickly said, “Mr. Li, this is Dog Mountain, let us help!”
Without having to instruct, the other Dog Demons started moving around.
The Dog Mountain had been turned into a barbeque paradise!
…
On the other end. Ordinary realm. North River.
There was a broken village consisting of mostly thatched and wooden cottages. Moreover, the roofs were mostly slanted and broken. It was a run-down village.
In the village, there was no one walking around. Each of them laid in front of their cottages or the streets. They all seemed to be in pain.
Cough, cough, cough!
However, the village was not quiet. The sound of coughing was heard constantly.
Looking closely, one would realize that the soil of the village was back. Furthermore, even though it was now springtime, the surrounding plants were dried out. They were all dead and fell to the ground.
This village did not have the warmth of spring. It felt eerily cold.

Meanwhile, a room in the corner had its door open. Following that, two elders walked out.
They had bloodshot eyes with unkempt faces. They seemed worn out. However, their eyes were glowing with anticipation.
One of the elderly men had a porcelain bowl in hand. He quickly walked to a patient who was slumped by the door. He helped the patient up and made the patient drink up the medicine.
“According to the Divine Farmer’s Herbal Classics, this medication should work.” The two elders looked at the patient and observed the changes in him.
The other said, “It should help to bring down the fever and relieve the cough. The results will be visible by tonight.”
“By tonight? Based on this herbal soup?”
A cold voice appeared. Following that, a figure in a red robe somehow appeared from the sky. The figure was glaring at the two elderly men.
This figure had a blue face and red hair. It had gigantic fangs with a third eye on the forehead. It did not look like a human. A very terrifying sight!
“Plague…Plague God.”
When the crowd saw him, they were all terrified. The two elders even fell onto the ground. Those severely ill patients knocked their heads on the ground to beg for their lives.
“You’re all nothing but ordinary people, how daring of you to fight against the Gods! You know a little something and forgot your status! The world’s big, what makes you think you can know it all? You want to save lives? Go on, I can spare you some time! Ha-ha-ha…”
He laughed wildly and made a gesture. The book easily fell into his hand. He opened it and read it through.
[Everything in the world grows and fights against each other. There are three-part poisons as well as using poison to treat poison, there’s nothing incurable. The effects of the drugs can also be mutually reconciled. Toxic can be neutralized, non-toxic can be catalyzed…]
The manual started with an introduction. Li Nianfan wrote it when he was in the mood. This sentence was well-written. He wrote it in hopes of giving confidence to the human race to face all kinds of diseases.
Although this manual was known as the ‘Divine Farmer’s Herbal Classics’, its contents were different from the title. With the help of Li Nianfan’s medical knowledge, the manual consisted of more than just knowledge to distinguish different herbs.
Quickly, Lu Yue finished reading the manual. His eyes became darker and darker. However, he had to maintain an unperturbed look on his face.
“You’re saying your new medicines can help treat diseases?” Lu Yue’s voice had a hint of disbelief and mockery. With a gesture, he pulled in the patient who just drank the medicine. Using his power, he examined the patient and was genuinely shocked. The patient was starting to get better and the disease in him was gradually being removed.
Impossible! Unbelievable!
Lu Yue’s third eye on his forehead jumped out. He was shocked and started to question life.
This worked!?
Those ordinary men were able to resolve the diseases he planted? Using this manual?
Of course, he did not plant a deadly disease, but he thought this plague was incurable by ordinary men! However, he was very surprised.
What was this? What law was this?
Suddenly, he felt his heart jump. He could only feel that a new door had gradually opened in front of his eyes.
This was a door he had never even thought of. A door that could lead to a whole new world!
A wave of chills rose from within. He had goosebumps all over.
He glared at the elderly man and asked in a serious tone, “Tell me, who wrote this manual?”
“Of course, it’s written by the Saint of my humankind, the Divine Farmer!” The elder had a sacred look on his face. He said with respect, “Trust me, as long as you give us some time, no matter what plague it is, we’ll find a way to cure it!”
“Just you? What a joke! What a fearless ant!” Lu Yue’s face turned green and he made a gesture. A grey power rushed into the patient’s body. Instantly, red bumps were appearing on his face.
With another gesture, this patient was tossed back at the two elders. “This plague will be more severe than the previous one, it’ll spread quicker. I want to see if you can cure it this time!”
He scoffed but he was secretly anxious. He felt as if his entire cultivation was under attack. He was interrogating himself, ‘What’s the plague-cultivation I’ve been practicing all about!?’
He wanted to compete with this Divine Farmer. He wanted to see how powerful this manual was!
Lu Yue smiled coldly and pestered, “Right, you’d better hurry! This plague’s very powerful. Who knows, you might die from it before finding a solution. Ha-ha-ha…”
“Divine Farmer will protect us!”
The elder picked up the manual and kept it. He said calmly with dedication, “I’m old, I’m not afraid of death. Even if we can’t treat it, there are countless people like us out there. As long as we’re protected by the Divine Farmer, we’ll cure this plague!”
Lu Yue smiled cruelly, “Okay, I shall wait and see.”
Meanwhile, a light rushed over from far away. It was a man in a green robe with pustules on his face.
He seemed anxious and shocked, “Master, it’s bad. The Heavenly Temple’s after us, even the Underworld’s involved!”
Lu Yue’s eyes darkened, “Hmph! Why so anxious? So what if they’re after us? I need to speak to them!”
The disciple stuttered, “But…we don’t know what they did. They managed to cure all the plagues we’ve sent out!”
