Huangxiu

Chapter 1197 Taking
Chu Zhiyuan and Huang Zhengyang floated outwards, constantly sensing the underwater environment as they walked.

The strange object kept changing position, appearing and disappearing unpredictably.

He was extremely curious, but he didn't rush to explore. He could come back later. The strange beast wouldn't run away; it had been suppressed here for many years.

The gains this time have been substantial enough.

Although they didn't obtain more Immortal Golden Essence, they did obtain the secrets to Immortal Golden Essence.

He had already scanned the booklet once, and it explained the method of refining the immortal golden essence very clearly.

This is far superior to my own method of refining.

If I had obtained this method earlier, the Golden Sword would be even more advanced now.

Huang Zhengyang chuckled and said, "Brother Chu, wasn't this trip worthwhile?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Brother Huang!"

"Let's not be so polite between us!" Huang Zhengyang waved his hand and laughed, "With this longevity pill, I can finally rest easy."

He had been struggling and hesitating.

The imperial court has offered a reward for this longevity pill, which must be obtained to prolong the mother's life.

However, the owner of this longevity pill is more likely to be Chu Zhiyuan.

If it weren't for Chu Zhiyuan's later help, he would have tried his best to obtain the Longevity Pill.

But Chu Zhiyuan's repeated assistance made him feel increasingly uneasy, and his guilt grew stronger.

Now this knot in their hearts has been completely untied, and everyone is happy.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "The imperial court must have plenty of longevity pills, right?"

“Very rare.” Huang Zhengyang sighed: “If I were the Chief Justice, I would have a chance to get it, but I can only blame myself for not being high enough.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Is it because the Tongming Grass is hard to find? But shouldn't we still try to give it to the two departments? After all, they put in the most effort."

Huang Zhengyang sighed, "Compared to our two departments, the worshippers of Zhenxieyuan are more tired and suffer more, and they deserve the Longevity Pill as compensation."

“Both departments are also risking their lives,” Chu Zhiyuan said.

“But our lives are not as valuable as those of the worshippers.” Huang Zhengyang shook his head: “If something happens to Zhenxie Abyss, the world will be in chaos.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.

This is an unavoidable fact; people are not all the same.

Suddenly, their eyes lit up as they realized they had left the Abyss of Suppression and appeared on a mountaintop.

They were a hundred meters away from the mountain peak from which they had jumped down, and could see eight experts standing on the peak.

……

They traveled through the night and returned to the capital at dawn the next day.

Along the way, Chu Zhiyuan had already read the booklet several times.

This deepened his understanding of the Golden Sword and gave him a more profound comprehension of the Undying Golden Essence.

Extraordinary gold from outer space can gather spirit, will, and the will of the people.

Furthermore, the spirit, will, and public opinion can further change it, making it go further and become stronger.

More importantly, its immortality can withstand not only the wear and tear of space, but also the wear and tear of time.

Of all the materials he had come into contact with, throughout history and across all worlds, only this indestructible golden essence possessed this characteristic.

After learning this, he gained a deeper understanding of the statue of the Undying Evil Lord.

The statues of the immortal evil lords that I have seen are often only coated with a layer of immortal golden essence powder.

This alone is enough to ensure the statue's immortality.

If it were made purely of immortal gold essence, even I probably couldn't destroy it.

More importantly, such an indestructible golden statue can gather more spiritual power and willpower, so what kind of power will it have?
It's terrifying to even think about.

He was pondering whether such an indestructible golden statue would actually appear.
Just because we haven't seen it now doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

If it really happens, how will I deal with it?

His mood inexplicably became heavy, and his joy at receiving the Longevity Pill was somewhat diminished.

He parted ways with Huang Zhengyang outside the city gate and walked more than ten miles towards Tianjian Peak before stopping.

A moment later, Chu Liezhao appeared and handed a jade bottle to Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan took it and poured out one.

Then he took out another jade bottle from his bosom and poured out the elixir inside.

Two emerald green pills.

It is the size of a longan, deep as if carved from jade, and has a warm, lustrous sheen.

Chu Zhiyuan examined the two jade pills.

One is a deeper green, and the other is a slightly lighter green, but it is hard to tell the difference without careful observation, and one might just assume it is due to the lighting.

He held one in each hand, closed his eyes and remained motionless, maximizing his extrasensory perception.

His super-sensory perception allowed him to see through both pills completely, making them clearly visible inside and out.

After a while, he opened his eyes and examined the two pills.

The one with a deeper green hue was refined by someone he had someone else make, while the one with a slightly lighter hue was obtained from Hu Qixuan.

Different medicinal herbs are combined and transformed through special refining methods.

They become almost identical traits.

According to the extrasensory perception, the two were almost identical, but the dark green Longevity Pill had a more concentrated spiritual energy.

So, does that mean that having someone else refine it for you will produce a stronger effect?

He thought for a moment, then popped it into his mouth. He instinctively sensed no danger.

The medicine continued to work in the cave, allowing its effects to dissipate and begin to penetrate the body.

A cool sensation lingered in the internal organs, dividing into three parts: one part entered the blood vessels, one part entered the bones, and one part entered the soul.

He carefully sensed the effects of these three energies on his body.

The cool sensation seeped into the blood and meridians, causing subtle changes in the blood, as if it had been cleansed.

The meridians also became a bit stronger.

At the same time, the bone marrow, infused with the cool aura, became slightly more transparent.

After being touched by its cool aura, the soul's light shone brighter, as if an oil lamp had been heated with more oil.

Chu Zhiyuan carefully felt its side effects and found that his heart was beating faster.

The circulation of fresh blood is accelerated.

Half an hour later, the blood flow resumed, and the heart became stronger and slower.

He immediately realized that his lifespan had been extended by at least thirty years.

I haven't reached the ninth level of cultivation yet, but taking the longevity pill does have an effect.

However, it's not that effective.

He already knew that the higher one's cultivation level, the less effective the longevity pill would be.

After nine cycles, the effect diminishes; eight cycles, which can extend lifespan by thirty years, are already considered exceptionally effective.

He nodded in satisfaction.

It seems that the newly refined longevity pill is indeed fine, and it is safe to give it to my parents.

The earlier you take the Longevity Pill, the better the effect; it can not only prolong life but also slow down aging.

He couldn't wait to return to the Prince Qing's mansion and have his parents take the pill.

So I did it as soon as I thought of it.

The next moment, he appeared in his own courtyard in the Prince Qing's mansion.

The scene of the Prince's Palace appeared in my mind.

Prince Qing, Chu Minghou, was not in the mansion; Princess Bai Ningshuang was playing the zither in a small pavilion on the lake in the back garden.

Several maids in colorful clothes were serving him.

The younger sister, Chu Yi, and Li Suyue were practicing martial arts in her courtyard. Dressed in martial arts attire, they were strong and graceful, displaying heroic spirit, just as they always did.

He appeared in Chu Yi's courtyard the next moment.

The two women stopped their sword strikes when they saw him.

Li Suyue smiled shyly, her fair face flushed as she clasped her hands in a fist salute.

Chu Yi pouted, "Big brother, what is it now?"

His clone pretended to have just had breakfast with him, and he felt no different from being there himself.

Chu Zhiyuan took out a jade bottle from his pocket and handed it to her: "This is for you."

"What is it?" Chu Yi floated over lightly, took the jade bottle, and opened it.

Upon seeing the jade-like pill, she curiously brought it to her delicate nose and sniffed it, instantly becoming alert.

She exclaimed in surprise, "A magic pill!"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Try taking a longevity pill."

Although I can see the longevity pill through my extrasensory perception without any problem, I'll try it through Chu Yi first.

After all, Chu Yi's cultivation is stronger, and if she is in real danger, she is more resilient and can be saved if I intervene in time.

"The Phoenix Immortality Pill? How long can it extend one's lifespan?"

As she spoke, she tossed the food directly into her mouth and even chewed it.

A moment later, her almond-shaped eyes widened in surprise, and she exclaimed, "Wow, what a powerful medicine!"

Her tight-fitting clothes billowed, her bright eyes flashed with brilliance, and her aura surged, soaring to the heavens with the aura of a grandmaster.

She then broke out in a sweat, followed by an unpleasant odor.

She smelled the odor, couldn't stand it, and turned and ran into the house.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said to Li Suyue, "Suyue, you can use one too."

"Yes." Li Suyue nodded gently: "Your Highness, what season is it over there?"

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "Want to ascend up and take a look?"

Li Suyue said shyly, "I was just thinking about it."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Once your cultivation is sufficient, I will guide you to ascend and take a look."

"Is it really possible?"

"The premise is that you can cultivate to a sufficient level."

"Yes."

As the two were talking, Chu Yi ran out, her eyes shining with excitement, and exclaimed with a charming laugh, "My cultivation level has increased by one level!"

“One of these is enough; more won’t do any good,” Chu Zhiyuan nodded in satisfaction. “Give the remaining one to Su Yue.”

“Hehe, you’re so generous, big brother,” Chu Yi said.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand: "I'm going."

He finished speaking and vanished in a flash.
