"All of them?"
At first, upon hearing this, the demons present still held a skeptical attitude.
After all, although the Eighth Grade Spirit Pill is not as rare as the Ninth Grade, it is still a rare treasure. To give one to each of the three Grandmaster leaders under Old Turtle King might not mean much to the Observatory Master.
But to gift an Eighth Grade Spirit Pill to all the hundreds of Great Demons present, that would indeed be a huge gesture!
Even at its peak, Dragon and Tiger Mountain might not have been able to make such a generous move!
However, when everyone lined up and actually received an Eighth Grade Elixir.
All the demons were dumbfounded.
"Oh my god! It's true!!"
"Even someone as weak as me can receive an Eighth Grade Spirit Pill? Heavens, heavens!"
"With this Treasure Pill, I can surely break through my bottleneck and advance even further!"
"I have hope of becoming a Grandmaster, I have hope of becoming a Grandmaster, hahaha!!"
Excited voices rang out one after another.
The loud voices of these demons made the cultivators who were about to leave in the distance stop once again.
When they heard that Qingfeng Temple's Observatory Master distributed Eighth Grade Spirit Pills to each demon who helped today, the cultivators on the scene were first in disbelief, then stunned, and eventually filled with regret!
"Ah! If I had known we could get such rewards, I would definitely have joined in somehow!"
"Damn, hundreds of demons, all got Eighth Grade Spirit Pills? Isn't this a waste?"
"It makes sense for those three Grandmaster-level Demon Kings to receive the pill, but how do those other demons who are clearly just making up the numbers also get rewarded like this?"
"Ahhhh!"
At that moment, countless cultivators were on the verge of tears, their faces contorted with envy.
If they had known that the Observatory Master would be so generous, they would have helped even at the risk of offending Jinshan Temple.
The onlooking cultivators felt this way.
The demons who had retreated earlier were even worse, crying out in despair and pounding the ground in agony.
"Alright, everyone has received theirs."
Outside White Cliff Mountain, the Black Bear Spirit confirmed that all the demons present had gotten their elixirs before speaking loudly:
"The boss asked me to convey that these elixirs are not only to thank you all for your help today, but also in the hope that you will continue to train diligently and not take the path of evil when facing cultivation bottlenecks!"
"If such a day comes, even with today's friendship, the boss will not hesitate to slay demons and eliminate evil."
"I hope you'll all keep this in mind!"
Once these words were spoken, the entire place fell silent.
All the demons stared blankly at the Daoist Temple up the mountain, never imagining that the Observatory Master would give such advice.
"Is this... what a cultivator is?"
The Demon Kings murmured softly, as they were already influenced by the Cyan and White Snakes, cultivating through the essence of the sun and moon, never doing anything harmful to others.
At this moment, hearing the Observatory Master's advice, they couldn't help but feel a deep respect and admiration.
After a momentary silence, there was a righteous response.
"We remember the Observatory Master's teachings and swear never to follow the path of evil!"
"In future, if Qingfeng Temple needs anything, we will follow any command without question!"
Hundreds of Great Demons shouted, like a tidal wave, echoing through the lands.
Making the distant cultivators frown and remain silent, feeling emotional.
[Congratulations Host, you have gained a Demon Race believer, Reputation Value +10000]
[Congratulations Host, you have gained a devoted Demon Race believer, Reputation Value +100000]
[Congratulations Host, you have gained a hundred devoted Demon Race believers, Reputation Value +10000000]
[Congratulations Host...]
Back at the Daoist Temple on White Cliff Mountain, Lin Heng suddenly paused his steps, staring blankly down the mountain, realizing hundreds of Great Demons were all bowing towards the mountain.
"This..."
Lin Heng was speechless, never expecting that this round of elixir rewards, plus a slightly warning admonition, would lead to an unexpected surprise, making many of the Demon Race below come to perceive him with faith?
This was beyond his expectations.
After all, he knew that the demons present today were not there to help him, but for the White Snake Sisters.
But now, he himself apparently won these demons' favor, thereby reaping a huge amount of reputation.
Speaking of Reputation Value, the Black Bear Spirit provided him tens of thousands of reputation earlier.
After saving the Cyan Snake, the sisters also provided the same amount.
Lin Heng thus discovered, once the Demon Race trusts him, the reputation gained is a thousand times that of humans!
Just like how cultivators offer more reputation than ordinary people.
The Demon Race offers even more terrifying reputation than the Human Race!
Lin Heng guessed, this should be because demons naturally harbor hostility towards humans.
Gaining their faith is much more difficult.
Therefore, the reward is so astounding.
"So, if the Demon Race can also develop faith in me, couldn't I exactly take the path of teaching without discrimination?"
Lin Heng pondered.
...
Moments later, the demons at the foot of the mountain had all left.
The Black Bear Spirit, carrying the large jade bottle, sneakily pocketed a few more elixirs before returning to the Daoist Temple, handing the jade bottle back to Lin Heng with an innocent smile.
However, although it thought no one noticed its little private stash, Lin Heng casually said:
"Hand it over."
"Huh?" The Black Bear Spirit flinched, awkwardly smiling: "Wha...what?"
Lin Heng gave it a look: "What do you say?"
Looking at the boss's deep gaze, the Black Bear Spirit pouted and gloomily handed over the hidden Eighth Grade pills.
Unexpectedly, just as it felt a bit depressed and resentful, a Golden Core flew to its front. As it hurriedly caught it and realized it was a Ninth Grade Spirit Pill just refined by the boss, its eyes widened with excitement, trembling as it looked to Lin Heng.
"Thi...this...is for me?"
While Lin Heng gathered the Eighth Grade Elixirs into the jade bottle, he calmly said:
"These elixirs, in the future, will be for outsiders to consume."
"You follow me, eating too many Eighth Grade pills is bad for your body."
"If you want to eat, eat the Ninth Grade ones."
Lin Heng's tone was calm and casual, as if he was discussing something trivial.
But to the Black Bear Spirit and the White Snake Sisters beside it, his words were stunning.
Eighth Grade Spirit Pill, consuming too much is bad for health?
This statement, throughout the entire Cultivation Realm, could be considered the most explosive statement in a thousand years!
Without exaggeration, if the cultivators, who consider even Sixth Grade pills as treasures, heard this, they would probably drown Lin Heng in spittle!
How is this even reasonable?
This is the pinnacle of pretentiousness!
"So, this is the confidence of a Ninth Grade Alchemist?"
At this point, Bai Suzhen and Cyan Snake exchanged glances, their eyes filled with a sense of exasperated amusement.
The Black Bear Spirit was even more expressive, having longed for a Ninth Grade Pill for ages, and finally getting one, it was so excited it almost burst into tears, it went straight to give Lin Heng a heavy bear hug.
"No need for words, boss. From now on, I'm your bear for life!"
