Dali Heavenly Empire, Lihuo Sacred Capital. In a restaurant.
"This is a ten-thousand-year-old fleeceflower. You won't be able to find a second one in the entire Lihuo Sacred Capital." A flaunting man took out a huge fleeceflower and boasted.
"Ten-thousand-year-old? Only ten-thousand-year-old? Hehe! "
"What are you laughing at?"
"Ten-thousand-year-old? Which of the ten largest auction houses in Lihuo Sacred Capital doesn't have a twenty-thousand-year-old treasure? Not to mention the large family clans and even the royal family. "The man laughed.
"That's right. Ten-thousand-year-old fleeceflower? His Majesty has a Qianqiu Tree. It blossoms and bears fruit every thousand years. Five fruits at a time. This fleeceflower of yours? Ten-thousand-year-old? Even a hundred ten-thousand-year-old fleeceflower can't compare to a Qianqiu Fruit. "Someone jeered.
"Hmph, rare things are precious. If my ten-thousand-year-old fleeceflower is the only thing left in the world, it will be more precious than anything else." The man said stubbornly.
"That's right. Rare things are precious. Most importantly, yours isn't rare. The Qianqiu Fruit is the rarest. Hahaha. "
"That's not right!" At that moment, a man sitting in the corner suddenly shook his head with a wine cup in his hand.
"Huh?" Everyone looked at him strangely.
"The rarest thing isn't the Qianqiu Fruit. No matter how powerful the Qianqiu Fruit is, there are substitutes. Even if it can't be replaced in terms of quality, it can be replaced in terms of quantity. Besides, the Qianqiu Fruit has a price. "The man shook his head.
"Oh? Is there an irreplaceable treasure in this world? "
"It's not a treasure, but a medicine. It's the only one in the world, a medicine that everyone dreams of. It's priceless! "The man said.
"What medicine?" Everyone's interest was piqued as they stared at the man in the corner.
"The Elixir of Immortality!" The man said.
"The Elixir of Immortality? Hahaha, kid, are you crazy? How can there be an Elixir of Immortality in this world? "
"There can't be an Elixir of Immortality. If there really is one, what's the point of cultivating? "
…
…
Everyone shook their heads and looked at the man in the corner as if they were looking at a fool.
"No, there is an Elixir of Immortality. Furthermore, it won't be long before we arrive at Li Fire Sacred City, "the person in the corner said in a serious tone.
Although the crowd did not believe it, the appearance of such a mythical and illusory thing inevitably made them want to find out more.
"Are you talking about the Sacred Fire Capital?"
"That's right. Do you know the name 'Zhong Shan'?" The man in the corner asked.
"Zhong Shan? Sky Breaker Plan? Grand Duke Dongfang of the Daluo Celestial Dynasty? "
As soon as that person said that, everyone nodded in agreement. He thought of this person. Project Heaven's Fall, a plan to destroy a powerful Imperial Dynasty in less than four years. Who wouldn't know of such a person?
"I heard that this Zhong Shan is now on a diplomatic mission to Dali Heavenly Dynasty. It won't be long before he arrives at Li Fire Holy Capital," the person in the corner said.
"What does this have to do with the elixir of immortality you mentioned earlier?"
"The elixir of immortality is in his hands!" The person in the corner said firmly.
Everyone looked at each other. Although they did not believe that there was an elixir of immortality, the person in the corner mentioned it, which made them pay attention.
Elixir of immortality? Was there really an elixir of immortality in this world?
"There are many treasures in the Divine Great Land. How much do you know? Qianqiu Fruit, Li Fire Pill, Deep Sea Fairy Anemone. All of them have different effects. How do you know there isn't an elixir of immortality? The Celestial Dynasty has treasures, so why can't the Imperial Dynasty? Rumor has it that Zhong Shan obtained the elixir of immortality from a place called the Jin Imperial Dynasty! One whiff of it increases one's lifespan by 30 years. If you eat it all, you'll have an elixir of immortality, "the person in the corner said emotionally.
"Keep bragging. If there really was such a good thing, wouldn't Zhong Shan have eaten it long ago? Why would it still be in his hands? "
"Yeah, if there really was an elixir of immortality, who would keep it? Do you want to give it away? You'll definitely eat it. "
…
…
…
Everyone exposed the lie of the person in the corner.
"No, there's a reason why he didn't eat it. Rumor has it that he wants to use the elixir of immortality to exchange for something from the Emperor," the person in the corner said.
"Exchange for something? What is it? "Everyone asked.
"I'm not sure. I only heard that it's more important to him than immortality. Therefore, he would rather not eat the elixir of immortality and bring it to the Li Fire Saint Capital to exchange with the Emperor," the person in the corner said.
"I also want to hear about it!" The person in white in the other corner suddenly said.
"Oh?" Everyone looked at the person in white in the other corner.
"I've never heard of the elixir of immortality. I only heard that on that day in the Wu City of the Jin Imperial Dynasty, countless experts from various sects gathered there. Even experts from the four branches of the Immortal World went there to fight for something with an evil force," the person in white said.
"Countless experts from the Immortal World? Could it be some small fries? "
"Small fries? Do you know Xiaoyao Hou? "The person in white looked at the person in disdain.
"Of course I know Xiaoyao Hou. Who doesn't know Xiaoyao Hou?"
"At that time, Duke Xiaoyao was also involved. He was a powerhouse at the Body Integration Stage, and he led 29 Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivators. In the end, they fled in panic. Countless powerhouses gathered in Wu City. At that time, for some unknown reason, they fought until the sky turned dark and the earth turned dark. Blood flowed all over the city. The dignified dynasty was shattered, and countless powerhouses died. No one survived. It was too tragic, "the person in white said.
When the person in white said this, everyone was shocked. 29 Ultimate Emperor Realm experts? Fled in panic? That was a group of experts from the Immortal World.
With such a big commotion, the item they fought for must be earth-shattering. The elixir of immortality? Everyone's heart suddenly lit up.
The elixir of immortality. Could it really be the elixir of immortality?
"Then how did it fall into Zhong Shan's hands?"
"Yeah, so many experts from the Immortal World came out. Could it be that they returned in disappointment?"
"I'm not sure about that. I only know that the final winner seemed to be Commander Zhong. I don't know about the rest, but if it's like what that fellow Daoist said, then the item they fought for is very likely … "The person in white stopped talking. His eyes were filled with shock.
"The elixir of immortality?" A few people said with slight excitement.
After that person finished speaking, the restaurant fell silent. The elixir of immortality. Was there really an elixir of immortality? Most people didn't believe it, but a few people began to believe it. The elixir of immortality? This thought was like a cancer cell that quickly spread through their bodies. Everyone kept believing it.
Three days. In just three days, the entire Sacred Fire Metropolis was filled with a strange atmosphere.
In an instant, the news of the elixir of immortality spread like wildfire. It was as if everyone knew about the elixir of immortality. Most people didn't believe in the elixir of immortality, but they also looked forward to it. However, a few people began to believe it. They were filled with desire for the elixir of immortality.
'Immortality, immortality, immortality!'
Sacred Fire Metropolis was only the first stop. With Sacred Fire Metropolis as the center, the news began to spread in all directions. It was as if there was a plan. When some people went to another city with the news of the elixir of immortality, they found that everyone in that city already knew about it.
The elixir of immortality was the number one elixir of all time!
Now that they were moving towards Sacred Fire Metropolis, countless cultivators were ready to move. Some were looking for Zhong Shan's route, while others were rushing towards Sacred Fire Metropolis.
At the border of Dali Celestial Dynasty. Zhong Shan led the army into the depths of Dali Celestial Dynasty.
"General, in a few days, we will arrive at a city in Dali Celestial Dynasty. At that time, we can ask the general of Dali Celestial Dynasty to escort us," Shui Wuhen said with a smile.
"Yes, escort!" Zhong Shan looked at Shui Wuhen in surprise.
Shui Wuhen's wisdom had improved a lot recently.
Just as everyone was talking, a stream of light flashed in the distance. About 300 people flew towards them.
Zhong Shan waved his hand, and the army stopped.
The 300 people in the distance were slightly surprised, and then they flew in front of Zhong Shan's army in an instant.
This group of people was dressed in official robes of Dali Celestial Dynasty. The leader was dressed in noble clothes, and he seemed to be a high-ranking official in Dali Celestial Dynasty. His hair was combed back and tied up with a purple gold rope, and he looked very free and easy.
The people looked at Zhong Shan's army. The young official in the lead squinted his eyes and said, "Who are you?"
"We are the emissaries of Dali Celestial Dynasty," Shui Wuhen said immediately.
"Dali Celestial Dynasty? Do you have proof? "The official was slightly puzzled.
Shui Wuhen was about to take out the Dali Celestial Dynasty's emissary plate.
Zhong Shan grabbed Shui Wuhen's right hand and asked him to wait.
"Who are you?" Zhong Shan asked.
Looking at Zhong Shan with slight surprise, the young official in the lead turned his hand and took out his official seal.
"I am Marquis Shaofei of Dali Celestial Dynasty," the official in the lead said immediately.
"Marquis!" Someone behind him said anxiously, as if he was in a hurry.
Marquis Shaofei ignored them and looked at Zhong Shan.
Zhong Shan looked at the official in surprise. Why did the official seal show it to him so easily?
Shui Wuhen immediately checked it and nodded to Zhong Shan. It was true.
Under Zhong Shan's signal, Shui Wuhen immediately gave the emissary plate to Marquis Shaofei.
Marquis Shaofei carefully checked it.
"Dali Celestial Dynasty, Duke Dongfang, Zhong Shan?" Marquis Shaofei said with slight surprise.
"That's me," Zhong Shan said with a smile.
"I've long heard that Dali Celestial Dynasty has a peerless talent. I didn't expect to meet you today. It's really delightful. His Majesty sent me to wait nearby. I didn't expect to meet you like this. For the rest of the journey, I will escort the emissaries from afar," Marquis Shaofei said with a smile.
"Thank you!" Zhong Shan nodded, but his heart was full of surprise.
No one knew the route they would take. How could it be so coincidental?
"Before that, Duke Dongfang, please wait a moment. I want to capture a group of rebels," Marquis Shaofei said.
"Rebels?" Zhong Shan said with surprise.
"Yes, there's still an hour. Duke Dongfang, please retreat a hundred miles away. Don't alarm the rebels," Marquis Shaofei said sincerely.
"Alright!" Zhong Shan nodded. With a wave of his hand, Shui Wuhen immediately ordered the army to retreat. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
