Chapter 233: The Philosopher's Stone
Well. Ye Qiu smiled lightly, I have abdicated now, just call me Ye Qiu. What's more, the elven kingdom has also settled down, and it is enough to have you here.
In winter, Ye Qiu listened to some things about longevity medicinal materials in the Ghost Valley, and listened to the dragon country's Nibelungen, which has a magical thing like the Sage Stone, which can re-wash and reshape the muscles and veins, so that an ordinary person can become a talent, and it can also extend the life span of about ten years.
Ye Qiu only had five years left to live, and he was left with only two choices. First, spend the remaining five years in peace, and second, find a way to live longer until you have gathered all the power of the gods and become gods. The gods don't have the concept of lifespan, and even more so he promised his son to become a god.
So he decided to go to the dragon clan to find the Philosopher's Stone to extend his lifespan, and there are many strong people there, maybe he can meet the Chosen One.
Husband, have a safe journey. Paris covered her slightly bulging belly with one hand and waved goodbye to Ye Qiu with the other.
Don't worry, Hill smiled sweetly, she said, I will take care of my sister when my husband is away, so you can rest assured to go boldly.
Well. Ye Qiu stroked Errao's hair a few times.
My son, the revenant soul also came out early to bid farewell to Ye Qiu, he yawned and said, I will sleep a little more and then go to the dwarf country, let's make an agreement, I want to see who of the two of us can be the first to become a god, and the losing side will call the winning side the big brother, what do you think?
Ye Qiu smiled and asked, "Why did the Revenant Soul Seniors come to be so interested?"
Who told me to be optimistic about you, I think you can become a god before me, but I can't swallow this breath, so I want to make a bet with you. Think about it, I'm the emperor's eldest brother, so I have a name.
Haha, that one made a bet with his seniors.
It's a long way to get to the dragons, so be careful on the way. The Revenant yawned and turned away.
Well, definitely.
On the way, the only person following Ye Qiu's side, Yi Duyang in the carriage was looking at Ye Qiu's side face with a playful expression.
Why do you look at my eyes so weird?
Yi Duyang snorted lightly, I think someone has a ghost in his heart, and he has made other people's Paris's belly bigger. I've been with someone for so long, and my stomach doesn't move.
Frontal Yeqiu was speechless, Yi Duyang was actually jealous about who got pregnant first.
What is it, Yi Duyang smiled evilly and pinched Ye Qiu's nose, but it's okay, so that I can temporarily monopolize you.
Get up, the Nibelungen country is really a bit far away. Take out the map's Ye Qiu Road.
In the easternmost part of the Desolate Continent, it is known as the country of the extreme east.
A month later, the Nibelungen border. It is a desolate and remote village, and because it has no name, it is called a nameless village.
The nameless village is next to a large mountain, and people go up to the mountain to cut firewood in exchange for some money in their free time from farming. There is a young man in his early twenties who is famous for chopping wood, called Long Zhan.
The reason why he is famous is because no matter whether it is windy, snowy, cold or hot, Long Zhan will not stop chopping wood every day, and the time of every time he goes out and comes back will never change, and the people in the village ridicule him and call him a walking clock.
This is also a bright and good day, and Long Zhanbai has not completely darkened after finishing his work in the fields. When he returned home, he skillfully took the herbs from the house and put them in a pot to boil.
Welcome back. A crisp female voice came from the room.
Well. Long Zhan nodded, he was covered in sweat, and he hurriedly went to decoction before the girl even had time to look at it, it was still early, he still had time to go up the mountain to chop some firewood, and if he was lucky, he might be able to get some game to eat.
Long Zhan put the fried medicinal juice into a bowl, scooped out a spoonful, blew it lightly, and handed it to the girl's mouth, come, open your mouth, ah.
Yes. The girl opened her mouth in response to Long Zhan's request, and if you look closely, you will find that the girl's eyes are blank, and she has no vision at all.
After taking the medicine, the girl heard the sound of the room being pushed away again and asked: Zhan Zhan, have you been like this all the time and are not tired?
Not tired. Long Zhan smiled, I'm about to save enough money, when we save enough money, I'll take you to find a better doctor, and I will definitely be able to cure the poison on your body.
Well, thanks. The girl whispered and fell silent, looking for something back.
On the street, Long Zhan, with a basket on his back, walked briskly down the street.
A child looked at Long Zhan for a long time, until he saw Long Zhan disappear from his field of vision, he touched the two horns growing on his head and asked his father, Dad, Dad, who is that big brother, why is there no horns?
The child's father smiled and said, "Long Zhan, he just called the walking clock in the mouth of the aunt you talked to." His horn was sold by himself.
The child's watery eyes looked at his father suspiciously, but Dad, aren't you a sign of dragon horns as a sign of dragon pride, and people who don't have dragon horns are some pathetic fellows.
That's right. Father looked at the street where Long Zhan had just stepped on, that guy was very sad
In the mountains and forests, Long Zhan found a leafy tree and took out a sharp axe from the basket. He and Tang Wushu came to chop wood, but it was actually half a lie, and he wanted to use the trees as imaginary enemies here and hone his strength and the accuracy of his attacks.
Although Long Zhan has a battle character in his name, he is gentle and does not like to fight and kill, but at the moment, maybe fighting and killing is the only way to get free.
He has no money and no power, just an ordinary person who is a little handsome. He had already found no less than ten doctors for Tang Wushu before, but every doctor had to say the same thing.
There is no cure for the resentful dragon poison, unless there is a person with deep soul power who can force out the poison in her body for this girl, otherwise she can only let this poison eat away at her body little by little.
Long Zhan was just an ordinary person, where did he go to find someone with strong soul power, so he could only follow the doctor's words to buy some drugs that could suppress toxicity to suppress the poison in Tang Wuxian's body.
There is only one choice left, the dragon clan will have a national conference every ten years, the first martial arts meeting, no matter who or what race, as long as you have the strength to participate. It is divided into four parts: the township test, the city test, the provincial test and the final imperial city test.
The winner can get the supreme prize, the Sage Stone, which is rare in number and naturally very precious. Those who obtain the Philosopher's Stone will use it to reshape their tibia and extend their life span by ten years, and then become a royal family, with all the power, status, and money
Although he knew that he was an ordinary person, Long Zhan still wanted to try this slim hope.
Long Zhan roared and raised his axe to slash at the tree in front of him with a dozen blows, and with a few clicks, dozens of branches were cut off and fell down, and some uneven broken sections appeared on it.
He is now at the beginning of Xuanyu, and he has no actual combat experience, so it is very reluctant to make this kind of slash.
It's not enough, even if it's a country tryout, I won't be able to qualify!" Long Zhan loaded the branches that had been standing down into the basket he was carrying and continued to wield his axe.
Time passed minute by minute, and when the sun had completely set, Long Zhan, who had cut enough wood, put the basket aside and rested against a tree.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of rustling in front of them, and three dragon men came over with a smile, and they were also carrying a basket full of firewood behind their backs, and they laughed after seeing the dragon battle.
Long Zhan lowered his head, and he picked up the basket and walked down the mountain. These three people he knows, they are well-known bastards in the village, Da Mao, Ermao, and Sanmao. Usually the hobby is to find people's stubble, although the villagers hate these three people, but they also have some strength.
Sanmao, who came over, grabbed Long Zhan's hand, and he sneered: Yo Yo Yo, isn't this Long Zhan?
I'm going home, let me go. Long Zhan said coldly.
Tsk, Da Mao smacked his tongue and said, we just want to talk to you, what kind of attitude do you have?
Hey, hey, Ermao stopped in front of Long Zhan, I'm Long Zhan, I heard that you also participated in the tryouts in the village, at your level?
Hearing this, Da Mao Sanmao laughed, and the three of them all pointed to Long Zhan's forehead with only hair and no horns and laughed, a person who doesn't even want self-esteem for money is also qualified to participate in the tryout competition in the village?
Long Zhan frowned slightly, honestly he didn't like to cause trouble, but it seemed that the three people in front of him insisted on doing something. I'm going home, please get out of the way.
Hey, hey, Sanmao came over with a lewd smile, I'm a dragon fighter, although Tang Wuxian is crippled, but she has to listen to her appearance, have you taken care of her for so long?
Oh yo, it seems that he didn't do that, Long Zhan is really a pure child. Sanmao whistled, and he continued: Actually, you want me, what are you doing with such enthusiasm for a cripple, what is she worth besides her face?
Shut up. A fierce look appeared in Long Zhan's eyes, he hated other people's gossip about himself and Tang Wuzhen in front of him the most.
He had never thought about why he was so desperate to take care of Tang Wuxian, he didn't have time to think about it, and he didn't want to think about it.
Sanmao frowned, Long Zhan, you weak chicken, is this your attitude to talk to me?
Shut up! Long Zhan screamed angrily and smashed a punch on Sanmao's nose, directly smashing him into two eyes, shaking it a few times and planting it straight on Lin, Sanmao's nose gushed out two streams of blood.
Damn! What are you doing! Don't take our brother seriously, do you? I think you really don't clean up! Da Mao put down the basket he was carrying and rushed over to scuffle with Long Zhan.
Ermao cheered on the side: Yes, that's it, big brother, teach him a hard lesson! Yes, punch him in the nose and his face!
After a few punches, Long Zhan's face was swollen, and his eyes were also hit with a dark circle, but Da Mao was not comfortable, he was panting constantly.
Ermao, you bastard, don't shout there, beat him up with me! This guy is a stone attribute, and I can't beat him with rough skin and thick flesh.
Oh. Ermao, who was standing on a rock, jumped up and kicked at the dragon battle below.
Get out of the way! When Long Zhan was kicked in the abdomen by Ermao, he punched Ermao hard in the face, and Ermao, who flew out upside down, clearly saw the two teeth that flew out of his mouth with blood.
Hmm Ermao screamed out, his face appeared with murderous intent, he grabbed the axe behind him with one hand and cut it down at Long Zhan, bastard, why are you so crazy!
You three scoundrels, you don't deceive people too much! Long Zhan was also completely angry, he rolled on the spot and dodged the axe that was chopped down, grabbed the axe in his basket, and then cut down on Ermao's arm.
Fortunately, Long Zhan was not carried away by the anger, and the axe forcibly slowed down in midair, but it still cut a dent on Ermao's left arm, and blood gushed out along the arm.
Ahhhh
Shut up, you useless thing. Da Mao snatched Ermao's axe, he pointed at Long Zhandao with his axe, son, you are crazy, stun my third brother and cut my second brother, do you really think you have the ability?
Long Zhan looked at him and said coldly: I just want to go home, you did it yourself.
The bones of Da Mao's body clicked and exploded, and he shouted and slashed at Long Zhan, if I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't know how thick the land is!
With a bang~, the two axes collided in mid-air, bursting into fierce sparks.
Da Mao was a Xuanyu mid-level in the end, and this axe directly forced Long Zhan back dozens of steps.
After dozens of impacts, the dragon battle could no longer hold on. He was sweating profusely and panting, but it was with the perseverance he had accumulated over the years that he did not fall.
You know how good I am, right?" Da Mao smiled contemptuously, if you are convinced, you will kneel down and apologize to me and my two brothers, so that I will not let you suffer from flesh and skin. Da Mao stroked the axe, otherwise, I can guarantee that you guy will definitely lie in bed for several times.
Cut, Long Zhan clenched his fists, who wants to apologize to a demon king like you!
Tsk, if I don't teach you a lesson, you really don't know the height of the heights! Da Mao aimed at Long Zhan's arm and slashed it.
At this moment, the grass in the woods made a rustling sound.
Ermao screamed out: Brother Da Mao! Look behind you!
Behind me, Da Mao suddenly felt some gas spraying on his neck, he turned around in confusion and screamed, and the axe in his hand instinctively slashed at the soul beast that appeared behind him.
The soul beast let out a low roar and flashed it easily, then looked at the four prey in front of it.
This soul beast is a snake, its waist is as thick as a big hairy waist, it is about a hundred meters long by the eye, and its whole body is green, and the red letter it spits out reflects a faint ray of sunlight, and the scales all over its body are shining with cold light.
Looking at the posture, you can swallow a person in one bite at will.
Da Mao screamed miserably: Isn't it? How could a seventh-order soul beast quenching scale snake suddenly appear in such a place?
The seventh-order soul beast was equivalent to the ordinary Rao Digang Initial Rank, which was enough to easily ask for the four lives in front of it.
Run! Run! Da Mao shouted, picked up Sanmao, and then started to run wildly with Ermao.
The quenched scaly snake spitted out the letter proudly, as if it was aware of the four weaknesses in front of it, and it did not directly bite the nearest dragon battle, but chased after Da Mao, Ermao, and Sanmao who ran together.
After feeling the sound of the wind passing by, Long Zhan froze in place, his clenched fist clicked. Soul beasts, soul beasts again, why do soul beasts always like to attack people, why do they appear in the mountains and forests of this one?
The unhappiness brought to him by the quenching scaly snake reminded him of what happened ten years ago.
Ten years ago, his parents and Tang Wuzhen's parents made an appointment to take their two children up the mountain to hunt some game, and they found three third-order copperhorn pigs, and in order to catch these three delicious foods, they unknowingly entered the deepest part of the forest.
It stands to reason that there can't be any powerful soul beasts in this kind of place, and seeing this seventh-order quenched scaly snake is considered a miracle, but after catching the three copper-horned pigs, the two Rao's parents met a soul beast that they had never imagined in their lives, a soul beast that had only been heard of in the biography and a thirteenth-order soul beast with blue blood and golden pupils.
It is rumored that this dragon only appears in the desert where few people have set foot and wields the power to control storms and dust, and no one knows why this thing appeared in an ordinary forest.
This resentful dragon appeared only for a moment, the prey he aimed at was the three copper-horned pigs, his body was constantly oozing blood, although this resentful dragon had no intention of harming Tang Wushuang and Long Zhan's family, but when he passed by the side of the two families, the blood that flew out of his injured body splashed on Tang Wushuang and Long Zhan's parents.
Tang Wushuang and Long Zhan's parents protected their two children to death, although Tang Wushuang was young at that time, he was still one year older than Long Zhan, and she followed the example of her parents to protect Long Zhan tightly in Huai Zheng
After swallowing the three copper-horned pigs in one bite, the resentful dragon poured into Linmian and had no whereabouts, but Long Zhan and Tang Wuzhen's parents were unlucky, the blood of the resentful dragon was strongly corrosive, and the two parents were actually corroded alive by this resentful dragon's poison into a liquid, but fortunately, they protected Tang Wushu and Long Zhan when they were dying, which made the two children survive.
But when Tang Wushuang was hugging Long Zhan, they turned into a puddle of liquid parents, and some of the liquid splashed on Tang Wushuang's body and eyes, Tang Wushuang's eyes were destroyed on the spot, even if most of this toxicity was eliminated by Errao's parents, but the residual toxicity was not something that a child could resist, and Tang Wushuang couldn't afford to be sick since then.
Bastard, let me die!" Long Zhan's eyes were full of anger, and he roared and grabbed the axe in his hand and slashed at the scaly snake that was chasing after Sanrao.
The quenched scaly snake screamed, its body was cut by the dragon war, and in anger, it spat out the snake letter and rushed towards the dragon war.
Big brother, let's leave now!
This big hair looked at Long Zhan who helped him in astonishment, if it weren't for the axe that Long Zhan just now, he might have finished playing now, his face was full of unwillingness, that bastard was really crazy, he was still being bullied by me just now, why did he suddenly want to save me now!
Da Mao looked at the dragon battle holding the axe to meet the quenched body scale snake and secretly smacked his tongue, his body actually moved one step faster than his brain, he jumped up and slashed at the quenched body scale snake with the axe high, dragon war, are you crazy? Can the Xuanyu Initial Rank fight the Quenched Body Scale Snake of the Digang Initial Order? Hurry up and run for your life!
As soon as Da Mao's words were finished, he was swept out by the tail of the quenched scale snake. Then the quenching scaly snake opened its bloody mouth and bit at Long Zhan.
At the critical moment, Ermao, who jumped over, pushed Long Zhan away.
You Long Zhan looked at the two Demon Kings of the Mixed World, who were still making trouble for him just now, but were now helping him.
Less verbose, everyone runs for their lives together. Ermao jumped up to dodge the attack of the quenching scale snake, we can bully you, but the soul beast can't!
As soon as Ermao's words were finished, his body was wrapped tightly by the quenching scaly snake, and Ermao's face was purple when he was strangled and couldn't move.
Hiss~ The quenched scale snake roared at Da Mao and the dragon war.
Bastard, let my brother go!!, Big Fur roared and rushed up at the quenched scaly snake again. It's a pity that he was bitten by the quenching scale snake, and he was directly poisoned and paralyzed and collapsed to the ground.
It's over, Da Mao smiled bitterly, he looked at Long Zhan and Sanmao Dao, who was still unconscious, Long Zhan, it was our fault before, forgive us, take my third brother away now!
Da Mao looked at the big mouth of the quenched scaly snake that opened to him, and he smiled bitterly, hey, good has good and evil is rewarded, I have done so many bad things, and I will be retributed
I couldn't speak, and his mind was about to stop thinking.
Why? My life is hard enough, why do I have to do this kind of thing, what did I do wrong?
Do you want to run away with the unconscious Sanmao? But if you continue to be cowardly like this, when will it be a head?
Anger, unwillingness, and pain all came to Long Zhan's heart, and after so many years of enduring it, the backlog of years finally made him explode.
He didn't run away with Sanmao according to Da Mao, but ran up at the quenched scale snake with a desperate scream, he lost his mind, and only thought about killing this damn quenched scale snake.
Don't you want to die?
The axe fell on the forehead of the quenched scale snake, directly smashing the head of the quenching scale snake into a bump, but with the power of the dragon battle, it was impossible to inflict a heavy blow on the quenching scale snake.
The quenched scaly snake that ate the pain was even more angry, and after he let go of the big hair, he tore at Long Zhan.
In the next moment, everything in front of Long Zhan's eyes seemed to be forcibly slowed down, and a cold voice appeared in his mind.
Do you crave power, do you want change?
I want power, I want to kill this bastard! Why am I the only one who is so miserable and miserable!Why! What did I do wrong?
So, be ready to give your life to call my name, I am one of the signs of the zodiac, and my name is
Before the words of the voice were finished, the whistling wind interrupted all this.
Long Zhan didn't see what was going on at all, only to see that the quenching scaly snake was directly knocked out, and it collapsed on Lin with a wail, and blood gushed out of its body.
I don't know when a white-haired man appeared in front of him, and the white-haired man was dressed in black, exuding a scorching aura.
Hiss! The quenched scaly snake screamed angrily and stared at the extra person in front of him.
It's noisy, shut up. The white-haired man said coldly, the moment these words came out, Long Zhan felt that the temperature around him dropped rapidly.
The Scaly Snake was about to fight back, but its body froze, and the visible ice quickly covered its body.
Go to hell.
The moment the white-haired man said this, the quenched scaly snake that had frozen into ice died on the spot without even wailing, and its body turned into scattered ice dust.
The white-haired man's hair fluttered in the wind as the ice dust flew, giving him the illusion that he was seeing the King of Scales, as if this man was the Emperor of Ice.
Are you okay??The white-haired man turned around and stretched out his hand to Long Zhan, can you still stand up?
Well. Long Zhan nodded and stood up, he was stunned and said, Thank you.
Ermao, who ran to Da Mao, looked at Da Mao who was poisoned and unconscious and cried, big brother, what's wrong with you?
He must have been poisoned by snakes. The white-haired man said softly, you put him down first, and I'll force him out of the poison.
My lord, please save my eldest brother! Please! Please! Ermao cried and knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the white-haired man.
I saw the white-haired man put a hand on Da Mao's body, and when he exerted his strength, the surrounding soul power was mobilized by him, and with Da Mao's muffled snort, Da Mao suddenly woke up after spitting out a mouthful of turbid blood, he looked at his purple body in astonishment, and then looked at the white-haired man.
Who are you, my lord?
Just call me Ye Qiu. Ye Qiu stretched out his hand to Ermao, and a stream of ice attribute soul power rushed into Ermao's arm, and immediately froze his bleeding arm that was cut by an axe, I'm sorry, I won't treat it, if you freeze your wound temporarily, you shouldn't be in pain, and then find a doctor to heal when you go home.
Lord Ye Qiu! Thank you for saving us! Excited Da Mao and Ermao knelt on the Lin together and kowtowed to Ye Qiu.
