Gu Xuan flipped to the first page of the Compendium of Herbal Pills, glanced at it, then closed it.
He couldn't help it. It was too much.
Just now, with just a cursory glance, he felt that his own Dao of alchemy had been shaken, as if it had resonated with it.
If he continued to study it, he might enter a state of enlightenment. Who knew when he would wake up?
Gu Xuan didn't care, but the Paragon of Pills was definitely going to die if she wasn't careful.
Gu Xuan put away the Compendium of Herbal Pills. With a thought, he felt the world spin.
In the next moment, a cool breeze blew against his face. Gu Xuan had left the stone heart and returned to the Li family's ancestral land.
Strictly speaking, the stone heart was a space of consciousness.
Therefore, to the Paragon of Pills, Li Yuanhao, and the others in the ancestral hall, Gu Xuan hadn't disappeared from their sight. He had only been in a daze for a while.
"Junior brother, you're finally awake.
You were in a daze for half a minute just now!
If you hadn't woken up, I would've had to wake you up by force.
You have to come with me to Eastern Wall City to chase people away.
Although my battle prowess is invincible, I can't maintain it for long.
If you don't come with me, it'll be troublesome if something happens. "
The Paragon of Pills looked at Gu Xuan anxiously.
He only had a few minutes left to live. He was panicking.
Gu Xuan glanced at the Pill Saint's Heart in his hand, then put it away with a look of regret.
The Paragon of Pills probably didn't know that the Pill Saint's Heart was useless even if he had it.
Only Li Yuanhao could inherit the Pill Saint's Heart.
Gu Xuan was furious at the thought. His gaze fell on Li Yuanhao, and he gave him a slap on the head.
Thump.
Li Yuanhao almost fell to the ground.
Of course, Gu Xuan's attack was fast. It came and went without a trace. Apart from the Paragon of Pills, no one saw it clearly.
Li Yuanhao clutched his head and looked at the Paragon of Pills with resentment.
"Why did you hit me again, Lord Pill Saint?"
He felt wronged. He had just been slapped by the Paragon of Pills, and now he was hit on the head. What sin had he committed?
Why couldn't they just talk things out?
Why did he have to beat someone up first?
The corner of the Paragon of Pills' mouth twitched. He had a belly full of anger, but he had nowhere to vent it!
"You blind thing, why would I hit you for no reason?"
Enraged, the Paragon of Pills gave Li Yuanhao another blow to the head.
Li Yuanhao fell to the ground with a thud, seeing stars.
"Hmph! That strike just now was my reward for you.
It was a matter of course for a master to beat his disciple. After all, he had nothing better to do.
Why? Do you have a problem with that? "
Gu Xuan looked down at Li Yuanhao and snorted coldly.
Li Yuanhao clutched his head, feeling wronged. He wanted to retort, but he eventually closed his mouth.
At the side, the core members of the Li family were all stunned.
What kind of show was this?
Was he trying to warn Li Yuanhao, the new patriarch of the Li family, not to feel proud just because he became the patriarch?
It didn't look like it, did it?
Forget it, the thoughts of the big shots should not be guessed.
Li Yuanjie, who had always been good at reading people's minds, was actually in a dilemma and frowned.
He didn't know what kind of expression he should make in this situation.
He hid behind the third and fifth elders.
He had no choice. His status was the lowest among them. If he showed the wrong expression and the new patriarch saw it, his future would be bleak.
"Alright, let's go to the Eastern Wall City. We can't waste any more time.
I only have three minutes left. "
The Paragon of Pills urged Gu Xuan, and a gentle energy connected him to Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan raised his right hand and the gentle energy on his body dissipated.
"I'm sorry, Senior Brother.
I'll take care of the Eastern Wall City.
Three minutes is enough to save your life.
We can even waste a minute chatting. "
After Gu Xuan said that, he saw the Paragon of Pills' handsome face was covered with black lines.
He laughed, raised his right foot, and gently stomped down.
Buzz.
A ring of energy rippled out with him as the center.
Wherever this ring of energy touched, everything disappeared without a trace.
The ancestral hall of the Li family was gone.
The core members of the Li family were gone as well.
All that was left was an empty space and nothingness.
Everything here could no longer be seen from the outside world.
The Paragon of Pills looked at Gu Xuan in surprise.
"What do you want to do by building this domain?
You don't have to be so old-fashioned and wait until now to harm the Li family, do you? "
The Paragon of Pills really was a bit worried about this.
But no matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem like it.
Three minutes was enough for him to kill Gu Xuan thirty times.
Even if he wanted to play the game, he would have to wait until he died first, right?
Gu Xuan raised an eyebrow.
"Do I look like an immoral person to you?
I just said that I want to save your life. Do you think I'm joking? "
The Paragon of Pills was shocked. "If you're not joking, do you think you're serious?
Not to mention you, even if the Heavenly Dao came personally, it would be impossible to protect the current me.
Don't act recklessly. Isn't it better to chase away the people from the Heavenly Path Faction and the Wufang Suffering Land? Why take the risk? "
A sharp light flashed through Gu Xuan's eyes, and he looked confident.
"I'll do what the Heavenly Path can't!
I'm not afraid to tell you that as soon as I got the Pill Saint's Heart, a wisp of your ancestor's soul pulled me into a place called the Stoneheart Space.
There, I made two deals with him.
The first was to protect you!
According to the memories your ancestor gave me, the Li family is in trouble, and it must be resolved by the Li family.
You're likely to be one of them!
In any case, you can't die today! "
Gu Xuan's voice was like rolling thunder, exploding in the Paragon of Pills' mind.
Gu Xuan's words contained too much information.
Even with his current composure, the Paragon of Pills' expression changed drastically and he lost his composure.
The Paragon of Pills didn't even know if he should believe Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan wasn't afraid that the Paragon of Pills wouldn't believe him. He opened his left hand, and the Herbal Pill Canon appeared in his hand.
An ancient yet mysterious aura was emitted from the Herbal Compendium of Pills.
"How is this possible? How did this book end up in your hands?
I couldn't find it no matter how hard I tried. How did you find it?
Also, when did you find it? "
The Paragon of Pills' face was filled with shock. Question after question came out of his mouth.
Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes.
"I can only tell you that the Herbal Pill Canon has always been in the Pill Saint's heart!"
The remaining questions were too troublesome to explain, and Gu Xuan felt that he'd be very angry at the beginning.
In order to make the Herbal Pill Canon recognize him as its master, he'd wasted ten drops of essence blood.
But in the end, he'd failed.
Even now, he could only temporarily control the Herbal Pill Canon. He wasn't its true master!
In the end, he'd give the book to Li Yuanhao when the time was right.
"Be prepared. Don't resist. Cooperate with me.
I've already prepared a coffin for you, sealing your blood and stabilizing your lifespan.
In my coffin, not only will you be able to keep your life for now, but your lifespan will also gradually recover.
Although this process will be very, very slow, and you won't recover much.
You'll die eventually, but at least you'll live for now.
As long as you're alive, there's hope! "
Gu Xuan's eyes flashed.
Boom!
The Sky Burying Golden Coffin flew out and landed in front of the Paragon of Pills, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The Paragon of Pills' pupils shrank.
"The Patriarch's coffin?
Did the Patriarch's remnant soul give this to you? "
Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes.
"Your Patriarch's coffin? How is that possible?
This is the Sky Burying Golden Coffin I brought from the Burial Wasteland!
There's no time to talk nonsense. I'll open the Sky Burying Golden Coffin immediately, and you'll have to lie in it!
Oh right, before you lie in it, give me some of your energy and Divine Soul energy!
I'll do what you want to do in Eastern Wall City personally! "
With a thought, a few drops of essence blood flew out from Gu Xuan's forehead and entered the Sky Burying Golden Coffin.
Buzz! The Sky Burying Golden Coffin shook violently, and then it shone brightly!
