Chapter 165: Undying Elixir Appears!

~7 min read 1,285 words

Actually, speaking of this, it's a long story; I don't know how I got here, but when I woke up, I found myself in this Xingkong.

Over the long years, I discovered that fights often break out here; knowing I couldn't win, I frequently found a place to hide, waiting for them to finish before coming out.

When they fought, there were often situations where both sides suffered losses, and that's when I would come out to deliver the finishing blow.

So you're such a dog.

Ye Chen said with a smile.

This isn't being a dog; it's called wisdom.

Lü Chunhua said, unconvinced.

Haha, so your cultivation techniques are all picked up?

Pretty much.

Hasn't there ever been an accident?

Yes, once a cultivator, on the brink of death, launched a desperate counterattack and stabbed me in the butt with a spear; from then on I resolved to walk the path of defense. After years of accumulation, I have also successfully forged my own path—the Heaven Shield Dao.

And I organized their techniques, creating my own cultivation method; that's why your attacks have no effect on me.

Of course, if you were a Quasi-Emperor, that would be different—your attacks are too terrifying; they really hurt, and I estimate they could break my defense then.

After Lü Chunhua finished speaking, Ye Chen nodded thoughtfully.

So that's how it is.

I've never seen such a pervert like you.

Ye Chen: "?!"

It's been a long time since anyone hit me this hard, and they're still a Great Vehicle cultivator.

Oh? Hahaha.

While Ye Chen and Lü Chunhua were talking, they had already arrived at the place where those several concealed auras were.

They didn't show up right away; instead, they wanted to see what they would do.

They were far apart, and with Lü Chunhua's means of concealing aura, they had no idea that Ye Chen, Lü Chunhua, and the existence of Mixed Eye were there.

At that moment, the three of them began to talk.

Big brother, is your information reliable?

Little brother, don't doubt my little Western suit, big brother—it's guaranteed.

This is the Undying Elixir.

The third brother said.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen, Mixed Eye, and Lü Chunhua were all startled.

They never expected that these people actually knew the news of the Undying Elixir.

If that's truly the case, the number of people lying in ambush here won't be small.

Chunhua, scout again—be careful not to get stabbed in the butt.

Okay.

After Lü Chunhua finished speaking, she then resumed scouting, while the three continued their conversation, completely unaware that there were three more cultivators behind them.

Exactly, that makes the news even more true.

The eldest brother said solemnly.

But this way, the cultivators hidden here are probably not few.

The second brother said worriedly.

It's fine; I almost notified you the moment I got the news, so we're also among the first to arrive. We just need to leave quickly after reaching the Undying Elixir, and there won't be any trouble.

When the eldest said they were almost the first to arrive, the second and third brothers breathed a sigh of relief, and their worries eased considerably.

At that moment, Lü Chunhua's voice sounded.

There are at least fifty-three cultivators nearby, forty-eight of them are Great Vehicle cultivators, and five are Quasi-Emperors.

After Lü Chunhua finished speaking, Ye Chen instantly understood—these three were being used as cannon fodder.

Being used without even realizing it.

Ye Chen said, letting out a soft sigh.

Such people are undoubtedly the most pitiable—they don't even know they're being used, and they simply think they've gotten a great bargain.

Meanwhile, the Xingkong was silent, and those three were completely unaware of the impending danger.

Just then, a tremor suddenly came from the Xingkong; instantly, a terrifying force surged through the Xingkong!

The next moment, a plant resembling a person, exuding a rich medicinal fragrance, slowly emerged from the Xingkong.

Those three also held their composure and did not rush forward the instant the Undying Elixir appeared.

Ye Chen also understood that beside the Undying Elixir there is often a powerful demon beast guarding it, and even if it isn't a demon beast, there will be an extremely terrifying and unknown entity.

In the next instant, the Undying Elixir seemed to sense danger and instantly flew off in a certain direction.

Those three could no longer stay still; their figures appeared in the Xingkong, and at the same time, a creature resembling an ox and a horse appeared before them.

In that instant, the eldest brother reacted.

Second brother, third brother, go chase the Undying Elixir; I'll hold back this demon beast.

Okay.

The second and third brothers shouted in unison.

Immediately afterward, the second and third brothers went after the Undying Elixir, while the eldest held onto that ox‑horse‑like demon beast.

At this moment, it truly was a case of pulling one thread and moving the whole body; as the second and third brothers pursued the Undying Elixir, hidden figures in the Xingkong appeared one after another, but with the eldest's cultivation level he failed to notice those lurking in the dark.

He was still desperately fighting that ox‑horse‑like demon beast, but his cultivation was clearly inferior to the beast's; his downfall was only a matter of time.

Ye Chen and the others also couldn't afford to worry about the eldest; they all rushed toward the direction of the Undying Elixir.

At this moment, the second and third brothers still didn't know all this; their hearts were still excited, and the Immortal Elixir was right before them.

With the Immortal Elixir, they could be reborn; by then, adding their current cultivation, wouldn't they be free to soar as high as they wish?

"Second brother, hurry, the scent of the Immortal Elixir will surely draw them over; we must be fast!"

The second brother shouted; after he finished shouting, the third brother's speed increased a bit more, but suddenly, the sound of a palm piercing flesh rang out.

The second brother looked in horror at the hand piercing his chest, "How...?"

"Sorry, second brother, the Immortal Elixir is only enough for one person, so please just die."

Rip—

The third brother pulled out his hand, the second brother could no longer support his body, and collapsed into Xingkong.

"Hahaha, the Immortal Elixir is mine!"

The third brother laughed darkly and maniacally, as if in his eyes he had already obtained the Immortal Elixir.

But suddenly, his gaze froze.

In Xingkong, suddenly dozens of terrifying auras appeared, each not inferior to his.

"How is this possible!!"

The third brother was utterly puzzled, "Big brother didn't say..."

"Idiot."

Suddenly, a mocking voice sounded in his ear; at that very moment, terrifying power instantly engulfed him, leaving him no chance to resist.

In his dying consciousness, he lingered on the fact that his elder brother had deceived him, yet he didn't know that his elder brother was also a pitiful victim of deception.

In an instant, those dozen or so terrifying auras fought each other, and the Immortal Elixir was wrapped in their power, unable to escape.

They could fight first, but the Immortal Elixir must not be allowed to escape; this was everyone's consensus.

Meanwhile, at this moment, Ye Chen and the other two were still hiding in the dark, watching the show.

"The world is bustling, all for profit."

Ye Chen said softly.

In fact, before this, Hunyan had told him that these three would surely kill each other; Ye Chen also knew that, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly—they hadn't even gotten the Immortal Elixir yet before they started slaughtering each other.
