"Raise the price?"
The Holy Elder was taken aback, but she quickly reacted.
"First place on the Mortal Ranking, the Dao Heart Fragment of the Heavens as a reward, and the method to reach the Second Heaven of the Saint realm. You think that's not enough?"
"Gu Xuan, you're being too greedy!"
"Holy Elder, don't waste your breath on him. Let's work together and teach this kid a lesson!
Otherwise, he won't know his place! "
The core members of the upper echelon were enraged.
Gu Xuan glanced at the group of old men indifferently.
Although they were all pinnacle King realm cultivators and probably had many trump cards, they were too old.
Most of them already had one foot in their coffins.
Gu Xuan was the best at dealing with people who didn't have long lifespans and wanted to live on.
"Don't worry, everyone. I, Gu Xuan, am not an ungrateful person.
Although I'll raise the price, I'll definitely take revenge that will satisfy the Holy Elder.
Holy Elder, why don't you listen to my conditions first? "
Gu Xuan looked at the Holy Elder and smiled.
The Holy Elder snorted coldly. She was extremely displeased with Gu Xuan's actions.
If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have wasted her breath on Gu Xuan. She would have just killed him at all costs!
As for the matter regarding his arch-nemesis, what will come, will come.
Even if Gu Xuan didn't appear, the 36 puppet guardians were still around. She would come sooner or later.
Moreover, the Holy Elder had a feeling that that day wasn't too far away.
However, she wasn't willing to die at the hands of her arch-enemy.
"Tell me your conditions. There's no harm in listening."
The Holy Elder decided to listen to Gu Xuan's words first.
As long as it wasn't too outrageous, she would still consider it.
"I need to master the power of water. If you have a way, I can use the pill formula in exchange.
If you have the materials, I can help you refine a few cauldrons of pills. "
Gu Xuan said indifferently.
The reason why he proposed this condition was that he had a vague feeling that the power of the five elements was extremely important.
Once he gathered the five elements, his understanding of martial arts would reach a new height.
If Gu Xuan had only mastered the power of fire, he wouldn't have proposed this condition.
Mastering only one of the Five Elemental Powers would allow one to unleash its full power.
However, he had already mastered four of the Five Elements: Fire, Metal, Wood, and Earth. He only lacked the Water Element to gather the Five Elements.
Now that he had met the Holy Elder, who was an expert in controlling the power of the water element, how could he not seize this opportunity?
The Holy Elder's eyes flickered.
Initially, he thought that Gu Xuan would have some outrageous request. Unexpectedly, it was just this.
To her, it was a simple matter to let Gu Xuan control the Water Element Power.
Of course, mastering it was easy, but mastering it was difficult.
However, this was not a problem for her to consider.
"No problem. I agree to your terms.
Once my sworn enemy is dead, I'll immediately help you master the power of water.
However, the pill formulas and pills that you promised to refine for us will have to be agreed upon by the upper echelons of the Saint Isle first. "
A sly glint flashed across the Holy Elder's eyes.
However, this sly glint was captured by Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan remained calm and collected, but he suddenly felt as if he had been deceived.
It seemed that it was not difficult for the Holy Elder to let him master the power of water.
However, Gu Xuan didn't regret it too much. He had promised to provide the pill formulas and help the Saint Island refine the pills. To him, it wasn't difficult at all.
"The upper echelons don't seem to have much lifespan left. I'll give you the formula for a seventh-grade longevity pill.
It can increase your lifespan by at least fifty years.
In addition, I'll give you the sixth-grade Sky-breaking Pill. When a King Realm martial artist takes it, he can directly break through a small realm.
Before I leave, I can refine one or two hundred pills for each of you, but you have to prepare the materials. "
Gu Xuan thought for a moment and decided on two pill formulas.
These two pill formulas could only be considered average among the seventh-grade and sixth-grade pills.
After all, the Holy Elder looked as if she had cheated him just now. How could he take out the best pill formulas?
Gu Xuan glanced at the Holy Elder, wanting to see her expression. If she thought that these two pill formulas were too lousy and got angry, he could react in time.
He could just make up an excuse that he had remembered wrongly and change two better pill formulas.
At most, he would refine a few hundred more pills for them.
After all, refining seventh-grade and sixth-grade pills was as easy as frying beans for Gu Xuan.
However, when Gu Xuan glanced over, he found that the Holy Elder was completely stunned.
She even blushed for a moment.
It was as if she was embarrassed.
Hiss, hiss —
Gu Xuanzheng did not understand what was going on. Gasps could be heard coming from all directions.
The old men stared at Gu Xuan with shining eyes, like hungry wolves that had seen a fat chicken.
A short and fat old man even had a long strand of saliva at the corner of his mouth.
Gu Xuan's mouth trembled.
Disgusting!
"Cultivator Gu Xuan, you're really … really … a magnanimous person!
Just now, I thought that Fellow Daoist Gu Xuan was insatiably greedy. Now, I have to apologize for my thoughts just now.
I'm really not as good as you! "
The old man with the token fragment in his hand had a guilty look on his face.
After he finished speaking, an old man walked up to Gu Xuan rather agitatedly.
"Cultivator Gu Xuan, you're so magnanimous!
What happened before was really just a misunderstanding!
I have to teach those blind holy guards a lesson. How dare they stop Fellow Daoist Gu Xuan from ascending the Stairway to Heaven? What a bunch of pigs! "
The Holy Elder looked at Gu Xuan with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.
Gu Xuan was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
Was this still the same Holy Elder who had been yelling 'death for his sins' and wanted to kill him the moment he saw him?
"No, something's not right! A grade-7 pill formula, a grade-6 pill formula, and a hundred to two hundred pills that I personally refined. How could they turn the most powerful people on the Saint Island into such a state? "
Gu Xuan rubbed his chin. He had no idea what was going on.
Could it be that the grade-7 Longevity Pill and grade-6 Breakthrough Pill were really that good?
Suddenly, Gu Xuan's eyes narrowed.
Could it be that there were no pills that could increase one's lifespan and raise one's cultivation in the entire Saint realm First Heaven?
Gu Xuan quickly went through his memories.
In the Treasury of Treasures Sacred Pavilion, all the elixirs that he had used to refine, from Tier 4 to Tier 7 elixirs, quickly flashed through his mind.
"I've really made a huge loss! There were so many pills there, but none of them could help one achieve a breakthrough. They were all used to treat injuries.
There were no pills that could directly increase one's lifespan. There weren't any trash pills that could increase one's lifespan by a few years or even ten years!
