Chapter 430: Chapter 227 Mercy Value_1
Translator: 549690339
Guided by this shadowy figure, Lin Yi arrived at a cave in a much deeper part of the underworld. The figure crawled into a keyhole, and in no time, the stone door opened automatically.
As he entered, he sensed the presence of a Self-destruction Formation. It seemed that if he had tried to force it open, everything inside would have been destroyed at once under the force of the formation.
However, he felt that this formation was fairly rudimentary.
The Pill Immortal Master was reputed to be the first in the realms of Alchemy Dao and the Path of Array. Even though Lin Yi had only been studying formations for one or two years, he had already achieved considerable success.
With the help of his title and the enlightenment from [Grain Wisdom from One’s Mistakes], his basic formation was now at the Grandmaster realm, just one step away from Great Perfection.
A little bit of advantage at the expense of his own master wasn’t too shabby.
At this moment, Lin Yi started to hear horrific screaming from within the cave. When a light was finally lit, he found several gruesomely tortured ordinary people, with no spiritual energy fluctuations whatsoever.
“Under the watchful eyes of the Sky Sword Sect, you guys would dare abduct people here.” he coldly inquired.
If too many villagers went missing, it would draw the attention of the Sky Sword Sect. Even if the Paper Shadow Sect hid themselves like rats, they wouldn’t escape the careful investigation of the Golden Core Real Person.
“How could I possibly open the door to the secret chamber for you? That’s impossible.” The last surviving shadowy figure seemed to have suddenly come to awareness, speaking in disbelief. The expression on his face seemed as if he’d just seen a ghost.
Seeing this, Lin Yi wasn’t surprised. Because the convincing effect of his Good Person title wasn’t permanent, but temporary.
If that convincing effect was permanent, then this title would certainly be overpoweringly powerful.
“Nothing is impossible.” Lin Yi responded, blandly.
The shadow figure’s face went through multiple changes before finally bursting into laughter, “Then there’s no reason we can’t kidnap people right under the nose of the Sky Sword Sect.”
“They’ve all been tortured into unrecognizable shapes, you can’t save them. Hahaha, aren’t you frustrated? All you can do is return with mangled bodies.”
Realizing that he wouldn’t be spared, the shadowy figure chose to stir Lin Yi up deliberately.
Lin Yi’s face turned grim. Indeed, as the shadow pointed out, the tortured commoners, with their disfigured bodies and barely hanging onto life, could not possibly survive.
Even if they were saved, they would be no better than dead.
Pills in the Cultivation World could extend life expectancy and, to a certain extent, bring the dead back to life. However, this required the body to possess a strong ability to endure.
For a cultivator, if a leg or an arm was severed, they could consume a pill and regenerate the limb.
However, the bodies of ordinary people would not be able to withstand the strong medicinal effects of such a pill.
The saying goes that the weak could not make up for deficiencies. A healthy person would get a nosebleed after consuming ginseng, let alone these powerful pills. If they were taken, death would only come sooner.
“You’re right. But this pile of mangled bodies can tear you to pieces.” Lin Yi responded coldly.
Then, he slowly approached these tortured villagers. It was a gruesome sight. The Paper Shadow Sect’s torture involved more than just severing a finger or cutting off a piece of flesh. fгeewebnovёl.com
It was far more twisted and cruel. Some villagers had their internal organs exposed, with bugs crawling over and gnawing at them.
He channeled the Wood Element Spiritual Energy within his Golden Core and slowly infused it into these villagers.
This made the villagers, who were at their last gasp due to the torture, regain consciousness. Simultaneously, more horrific screams erupted.
Seeing this, Lin Yi controlled the Wood Elemental Spiritual Energy, turning it into Poison Elemental to temporarily paralyze their pain receptors.
This was an understanding he gained from wearing the [Fearless of Poison] after successfully making Golden Cores.
The properties derived from Wood Element were not just limited to wind and thunder but also included poison.
He slowly addressed the villagers: “I’m sorry. Even though I’m a cultivator, I can’t save you or restore your bodies. If you have any last wishes, you can tell me now.”

Even after becoming a Golden Core Real Person and integrating the Five Elements into his Golden Core, he was still unable to change the rules, which wouldn’t allow ordinary people to withstand this powerful regenerative energy.
Possibly, only after ascending to immortality, understanding, and mastering certain rules, could this be achieved.
That’s why in ancient mythological novels, gods giving an ordinary human a single pill could make them ascend in broad daylight.
The grotesquely disfigured villagers looked at Lin Yi with gratitude in their eyes. Some of them, without eyes and only wounds in their eye sockets, still gazed in the direction of Lin Yi’s voice.
Then, those who still had eyes to see stared intently at the shadowy figure, their eyes filled with hatred.
“Are you sure? I can help you get revenge, but it requires your death. Yet at the moment, you can still survive for a while.” Lin Yi shook his head and sighed, then asked.
These villagers nodded without hesitation, their eyes, fixed on Lin Yi, were filled with a plea.
Living at the moment was a torment for them. They’d attempted suicide more than once, but those brutes used certain methods to prevent their suicide, forcing them to suffer endless pain.
