Above the Lian Clan, Ling Xian was a little startled. He didn't think the elder would give him half of the treasures.
One has to know that this was an astronomical figure. Ignoring everything else, just the fifty stalks of godly medicine were priceless.
"This is far too valuable. I do not deserve it."
Ling Xian smiled. He didn't help for the reward, he just didn't want an ally to die.
"Feel guilty?"
The elder in white chuckled, "You saved the Ji Clan. These treasures aside, even if the Ji Clan has to give you everything they have, it is still possible."
"Senior, you are exaggerating. The Ji Clan and I are on the same side. I have to help." Ling Xian smiled.
"On the same side …"
The elder in white looked at Ling Xian meaningfully, "If that's the case, then you should accept the treasures. At the very least, you won't be lacking in resources."
"That's true. Okay, I accept."
Ling Xian grinned. He was the grandmaster of alchemy and the grandmaster of arrays. To him, spiritual medicines and heavenly stones were necessary.
Who knows when he might need them.
"That's right." The elder in white smiled warmly. He then closed his eyes and waited.
Ling Xian did the same.
Half an hour later, the leader of the Lian Clan landed with four gold storage pouches.
Then, he handed the pouches to the elder in white, "All the treasures you want are inside. Please take a look."
"You check and pick half." The elder in white shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian.
"Then I won't be shy." Ling Xian smiled. His brows began to emit light as he checked the first storage pouch on his left.
Inside, there were all kinds of rare treasures. Without exception, they were all extremely rare and valuable.
"The quantity is correct and the quality is good." Ling Xian nodded softly in acknowledgment.
Then, he checked the second storage pouch. After some time, he revealed a satisfied smile.
This storage pouch was filled with first realm spiritual Dans. Though the quality was not the best, it was at least 60 to 70 percent spiritual energy.
Not everyone could be like Ling Xian and give out 80 percent spiritual Dans. To be able to get 60 to 70 percent spiritual Dans was already impressive.
Then, Ling Xian checked the third storage pouch and his smile deepened.
The storage bag was filled with rare godstones. Although there were no Paramount Godstones of the Time and Five Elements, they were still rare and precious.
"Not bad." Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction and used his Qi to inspect the last storage pouch.
There were a hundred stalks of godly medicine inside, all of them glowing brightly and emitting a sweet fragrance. Without exception, they were all rare godly medicines.
Among them, there were a few that even made him extremely tempted.
For example, the Broken Life Grass.
This medicine was extremely rare, and it was extremely poisonous. Even a level-nine cultivator would not be able to last long after the poison entered their body.
One could well imagine just how terrifying the toxicity of this medicine was. It truly lived up to its name of severing one's life.
Therefore, to others, the Grass of Broken Life was the best for assassination. But to Ling Xian, it was a life-saving item.
He knew of a type of pill that used the Life Severing Grass as its main ingredient. It could extend one's lifespan by ten years.
Compared to those life-prolonging pills that could easily last a hundred years, ten years was insignificant. However, if two conditions were added, then it would be a priceless divine pill.
First, no matter who it was, even if it was someone close to the Dao who could sweep through the world.
Second, no matter how many life-prolonging pills one consumed, this Dan could extend one's lifespan by ten years.
Remember that life-prolonging pills weaken as the body's antibodies become stronger. For the same pill, the first time it was consumed, it would be 100% effective. The second time, however, it would only be 50% effective.
The third time, it would be ineffective.
Using the elder in white as an example, he had consumed far too many life-prolonging pills. His body's antibodies had reached their limit. All life-prolonging pills were useless to him.
Or else he wouldn't have stayed inside the sealed stone like a living dead.
But a Dan brewed with the Grass of Broken Life could ignore the body's antibodies and extend one's lifespan by ten years. To a living being whose body's antibodies had reached their limit, this was without a doubt, a treasure that they would do anything to get their hands on!
"Senior, I don't think you will die anytime soon."
Ling Xian softly grinned. The elder in white was an undefeatable cultivator close to the Dao. If he dies, it would be a great loss to the entire universe.
Plus, the Ji Clan needed a cultivator close to the Dao. Only then could they scare the Ning and Lian Clans.
Therefore, Ling Xian decided to brew that Dan to extend the elder's lifespan by ten years.
"Hmm?" The elder in white was a little startled, not understanding.
"Let's talk about it later."
Ling Xian grinned, "I have checked. There are no problems with the quantity and the quality isn't bad."
"Good."
The elder in white stared at Ling Xian and then shifted his gaze to the leader of the Lian Clan, "Go back and tell your ancestor that I am satisfied. But if there is a next time, there is no need for the Lian Clan to exist."
Hearing this, the leader of the Lian Clan sighed in relief and smiled, "Senior, do not worry. I will control the Lian Clan and make peace with the Ji Clan."
"Very good."
The elder in white grinned and shifted his gaze to Ling Xian, "Let's go."
Then, his silhouette began to fade and disappear.
Ling Xian did the same.
When they reappeared, the two of them were thousands of miles away from the Lian Clan.
"Now you can speak. What did you mean by that?" The elder in white stared at Ling Xian, his eyes full of hope.
He was born not because he wanted to die, but because he didn't want to be a living dead anymore.
Therefore, Ling Xian's words made him have high expectations.
"It means exactly what it says." Ling Xian faintly smiled and took out the Grass of Ceasing Life.
"I know of a type of Dan that can extend one's life by 10 years, no matter how many lifespan items one consumes, and no matter what level one's cultivation level is."
Hearing this, the elder in white froze. Even though he had predicted this, after hearing Ling Xian's words, his heart was still thrown into turmoil.
Half of it was shock, half of it was excitement.
Extending one's life by 10 years wasn't much. But to extend one's life by 10 years, no matter how strong one's body is, was shocking.
"Is that true?"
The elder in white suppressed his excitement, "You really can extend one's life by 10 years, no matter how many lifespan items one consumes?"
"That's right."
Ling Xian grinned. He too found it hard to believe, but he believed in Liao Cang Qiong's recipe and he believed in his alchemy skills.
"Haha, I cannot believe there is hope for me to live." The elder in white laughed out loud, full of joy.
"It's not hope for life. This Dan can only extend one's life by 10 years. After 10 years, one will die for sure."
Ling Xian shook his head. This Dan is equivalent to exchanging death for 10 years of lifespan. After 10 years, even if one becomes an immortal, they will die.
"It doesn't matter. Even if I don't accept this Dan, I have no chance of living."
"To be able to live another 10 years is already extremely lucky."
The elder in white was full of smiles. To someone like him who can only live for a year, living another 10 days would be considered lucky, let alone 10 years.
Therefore, he shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian, "What realm is this Dan?"
"First realm," Ling Xian whispered. This Dan was not a low realm. Only a grandmaster can brew it.
"This is troublesome. Where can I find a grandmaster …" The elder in white frowned, feeling troubled.
At that moment, he heard eight words.
"So far away, yet so close."
