Chapter 394

The most maddening thing about the Five-Colored Salamander is that its flesh has life-extending properties; eat a bite and you gain several years of lifespan, and if you eat an entire Five-Colored Salamander, the effect is at least three hundred years of lifespan—this is even for a juvenile Five-Colored Salamander.

While speaking, they stared at the Five-Colored Salamander.

The Five-Colored Salamander in the palm shuddered for no reason, and its face instantly darkened.

It glared viciously at the Heishanyang, never expecting this unremarkable Heishanyang to know this; the Five-Colored Salamander narrowed its eyes, full of malice.

The Heishanyang ignored the Five-Colored Salamander's gaze and continued: "An adult Five-Colored Salamander can at least add a thousand years to one's lifespan—I've seen it myself. That person ate a Five-Colored Salamander, grew young again, gained a thousand years of lifespan, and only died after enduring a thousand years."

Kid, if you take their flesh and face, the effect is even greater.

Chen Chuyang's pill-refining skill is formidable; if Chen Chuyang used the Five-Colored Salamander to refine pills, everyone present would benefit—lifespan, who wouldn't want a bit more?

Although the first use gives the best effect, subsequent effects are halved, and they continue to be halved.

Three hundred years of lifespan—who wouldn't want it? Not lacking now doesn't mean you won't lack later.

Especially humans, whose lifespans are short; they have good talent and fast cultivation speed, but they also have a drawback: short lifespans.

Even if they set foot on the path of cultivation, human lifespans are pitifully short compared to those of demon beasts.

And the emergence of life-extending pills has brought lifespan to humans, with the Five-Colored Salamander being a primary ingredient.

The Five-Colored Salamander flared, glaring fixedly at the Heishanyang, baring its teeth.

That look seemed to say, "If you dare utter another word, I'll kill you."

The Heishanyang ignored it again; a sealed Five-Colored Salamander, aside from extending lifespan, has no other use.

On Longshe Shan, we don't need so many demon beasts.

Having it and the little carp is enough; this Five-Colored Salamander can be divided among us just right.

Shang Hongxue and Chen Qinger stared at the Five-Colored Salamander; the two girls never expected that this vividly colored salamander would have such great effect.

If what the Heishanyang says is true, then isn't it?

Chuyang brother, this salamander must not be known to outsiders.

Chen Chuyang naturally understood, bowed the head, and said: "I didn't expect you to have such a useful trait."

The Five-Colored Salamander's face darkened.

No answer.

A murderous gaze fixed on the Heishanyang, enough to explain everything.

Besides these, are there any other traits?

The Heishanyang pondered slightly and said: "This kind of Five-Colored Salamander's body and flesh are precious, an important material for body refinement; kid, if you want to break through your body, perhaps you could try its blood—it may have unexpected effects."

The Five-Colored Salamander immediately shook its head and transmitted to Chen Chuyang: "Don't listen to its nonsense; it's lying."

"I have no use at all; don't kill me."

"I..."

It panicked, knowing its importance; few humans could bear it.

Especially this life-extending trait is enough to drive humans mad.

How many old monsters, for the sake of lifespan, would spare no effort.

If one knew that a living Five-Colored Salamander existed on Longshe Shan, the stir it could cause is unimaginable.

"You're very dishonest." Chen Chuyang squeezed the hand hard, and the Five-Colored Salamander in the palm let out a piercing shriek.

"Roar."

The roar was frightening, yet so... sharp.

The Heishanyang showed a smile, inwardly sighing: "Indeed, Chen Chuyang dares to act; they dislike dishonest demon beasts."

Thinking of eating the Five-Colored Salamander, the Heishanyang licked its lips; eating this Five-Colored Salamander would restore part of its strength.

This is a treasure, a top-tier treasure, hard to come by.

Shang Hongxue, seeing this, crossed the arms and quietly watched the scene.

Half an hour later.

The Five-Colored Salamander's shriek faded, and only then did Chen Chuyang release the right hand.

Besides these, is there anything else?

The Heishanyang shook its head: "That's all; you need to research it yourself, after all I've never tried a Five-Colored Salamander, so I'm not entirely sure."

"Kid, want to give it a try?"

This is top-tier research material; if figured out, perhaps one could find the secret of longevity.

The Five-Colored Salamander has a vast lifespan, unmatched by any demon beast.

They consume little; with the baptism of heavenly and earthly spiritual energy, they gradually awaken their bloodline, then step by step enter longevity.

However, their strength is lacking; aside from escape abilities, their other capabilities are pitifully weak.

Chen Chuyang smiled: "Not needed for now."

The Heishanyang, unwilling to give up, continued urging: "Kid, eat it, and I guarantee your talent and foundation will rise a level."

Chen Chuyang stared at the Heishanyang; sure enough, this goat hides a secret.

These are just my guesses; back then, the fellow who ate a Five-Colored Salamander underwent a metamorphosis; if they hadn't courted death, they would have died early, and perhaps they could have left their name behind.

Kid, the Five-Colored Salamander really is a good thing; eat it, and I guarantee you'll advance your cultivation faster.

By then, you only need to give me a bit of flesh and blood.

The lowly one only needs a little.

The Heishanyang knows it wants more, but there's nothing left; if it wants less, Chen Chuyang will still give it.

Chen Chuyang lowered the head, looked at the Five-Colored Salamander, and said: "You heard that too, right? You now have only one path: submission."

Previous submission was forced, by forcibly suppressing it, oppressing it into obedience.

This time, Chen Chuyang needs it to submit voluntarily, to ally willingly, rather than bearing resentment.

He, Chen Chuyang, is not the kind of person who forces others.

Five-Colored Salamander: "???"

It doesn't understand; this human deliberately does this just to make it bow its head.

In this situation, not bowing its head definitely won't work.

The Five-Colored Salamander loosened its mouth: "You win, human; I'll acknowledge you as my master."

It has no choice.

It can only bow its head.

Chen Chuyang nodded in satisfaction, nodding at the black goat; this goat is not bad, it understood Chen Chuyang's thoughts and intentions.

The black goat felt regretful inside; it seems it is not qualified to eat the Five-Colored Salamander's flesh and blood.

Shang Hongxue and Chen Qinger did not interject the whole time, staring, watching; no matter what choice Chen Chuyang makes, they will stand by his side, rather than...

This time acknowledging a master was voluntary.

Relatively relaxed, Chen Chuyang loosened his grip and sent it into the fish pond.

The Five-Colored Salamander stayed away from the small carp, finding another corner to stay in.

Those eyes did not forget to stare at the black goat.

Chen Chuyang raised his head and looked outward.

Outside Longshe Cheng, dark clouds pressed down.

An unpleasant aura was spreading, coming toward this side.

"Over there?"

The black goat raised its head, looked toward the distance, its pupils constricting again.

"Kid, something happened over there."

"This aura seems to be that of some divine ability."

Shang Hongxue and Chen Qinger followed suit, raising their heads to look, but saw nothing.
