Bao Jiang, who was originally white-haired and youthful-looking, is now seriously injured and looks no different from an ordinary old man.
Seeing that the other party was barely breathing, Zu An hurriedly took out a handful of spiritual herbs and fed them to him. It was a pity that the Feather Mountain Spiritual Spring was no longer available, and he didn't know if these pills from later cultivation worlds could be effective for a celestial being.
The elixir melted instantly in his mouth, and a rosy hue finally returned to Bao Jiang's face. His eyelids fluttered slightly, and he weakly opened his eyes: "I will not give you the elixir of immortality..."
After seeing clearly what Zuan and his group had gone through, he stopped halfway through his sentence.
Who are you?
“Senior, we came to Baoyuan Mountain with the help of the Six Witches of Kaiming to ask you for the Glazed Hairpin Flower. Later, when we learned that you were in danger, we were guided by the Goddess of Wushan to come and help you.” Zuan did not want to make things so pragmatic from the beginning, but the other party was in such a state that he could die at any time.
So many of them have worked so hard for so long to save Xiaoxi, even going so far as to travel through time. If it all comes to nothing in the end, he can't even imagine how he would face it.
Upon hearing the names of those people he mentioned, Bao Jiang's originally cloudy eyes lit up with a strange light. He then took out a flower from his pocket and said, "I just picked this flower a few days ago, so I'll give it to you."
Zuan looked down and saw that the flower was like a hairpin, crystal clear and like glass. Even without anyone's introduction, he could tell at a glance that it was what he was looking for.
Seeing that Zu'an had accepted the gift, Bao Jiang continued, "I would like to ask you for a favor, young brother..."
She then took out a glittering golden bead and handed it to him: "Please give this Divine Dragon Elixir of Immortality to the Goddess of Wushan, and have her give it to a destined person to cultivate it to maturity..."
An elixir of immortality?
Mikado Baiharu and the Mermaid Queen stared at the golden bead unconsciously. Was this the legendary elixir of immortality?
"The Divine Dragon Elixir of Immortality!" Zu An felt a shiver run through his body. He knew that when it came to familiarity with the Divine Dragon Elixir of Immortality, probably no one in the world could compare to him.
Because in later generations he found a divine dragon immortality elixir in the Tomb of Ten Thousand Dragons, and used it to save Qiu Honglei.
As Mi Li once said, every elixir of immortality in the world is unique, and it is clear that this Divine Dragon Elixir of Immortality is the seed of the one in the Tomb of Ten Thousand Dragons in the future.
In that instant, Zuan suddenly felt as if he were enveloped by a sense of destiny, which made him feel powerless and fearful.
"Who exactly injured you like this?" Mikado Baiharu asked quickly.
Bao Jiang smiled and shook his head: "Knowing too much is dangerous for you. If you can fulfill my wish, I will be eternally grateful..."
As he spoke, his voice lowered. Zu An's expression changed, and he hurriedly checked on him. In the end, he shook his head helplessly at the two women: "He's already dead."
"It seems we're too late. He's already been murdered by that drum." The mermaid queen looked at her with pity. Zaun had already told her the whole story on the way, so she knew this as well.
Although she didn't know either Gu or Baojiang before, the fact that Baojiang was still thinking of them even before he died was enough for her to distinguish between good and evil.
"Woman, who are you? How do you know my name?" A sinister laugh suddenly came from afar.
Zuan and his two companions' expressions changed drastically. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a huge snake coiled around a towering tree. The upper body of the snake resembled that of a young man with long, red hair that swayed in the wind like tiny snakes.
He had a pair of yellow, vertical pupils, and when he spoke, his forked tongue would occasionally stick out and lick his lips, making him a chilling sight.
Zuan's face was grim. He wondered if Yu Yanluo had truly exhausted all the beauty of the snake race, since all the other snake-bodied, human-headed creatures he had seen were so strangely ugly.
A huge, eagle-owl-like bird landed on a nearby branch. It had black stripes all over its body, a white head, a red beak, and tiger-like claws. One look was enough to convince everyone that one swipe of its claws could pierce even a dragon.
As it landed, it overheard the question from the snake-bodied, human-headed man and leaned closer to say, "My lord, this woman seems to be the holy maiden of the Chang clan."
"That legendary beauty Chang'e? She is indeed beautiful, and the woman next to her is no less so. It seems my luck is good today." The snake-bodied, human-headed man laughed loudly as he looked the three of them over with a smug gaze.
Noticing his gaze, Mikado Baiqing's face turned cold, while the Mermaid Queen hid behind Zuan in fear.
"You must have come for the elixir of immortality. Here you go." With that, he waved his hand and tossed a golden ball into the distance, sending it flying towards a valley.
Without the slightest hesitation, he grabbed the two women's hands and used his speed to run in another direction.
He didn't engage in much verbal sparring with the other party. No matter how he explained that he was just passing by and didn't know what had happened, the other party would choose to silence him to ensure that nothing went wrong. Moreover, since he had become interested in the two women, he would be even less likely to show mercy.
Upon hearing the words "elixir of immortality," the snake-bodied, human-headed drum was instinctively drawn to the golden ray of light, its enormous body catching up with it like lightning.
He held the golden light in his hand, but the smile on his face froze as he realized it was just an ordinary piece of gold.
"How dare they trick me!" Gritting his teeth, he crushed the gold into dust. "Qin, capture them!"
Zuan used teleportation repeatedly, and the surrounding scenery rushed past, but there was no joy on his face, because the strange bird named Qin was rushing over at a speed that was even faster than his.
The other party was clearly a follower of the gods, just like Wei Yueyan before, and could not be regarded as an ordinary ferocious beast.
The skill "Great Wind" still has a cooldown period.
He knew that if things continued like this, no one would be able to escape, so he pushed the two women forward and said, "You two go first, I'll meet you up later!"
He then drew his Tai'a sword, and a dazzling sword light slashed straight at the strange bird behind him.
Upon seeing the exaggerated sword energy, the strange bird named Qin's pupils shrank slightly, and its body radiated a divine light of red, white, and black. Then, its iron claws, enveloped in divine light, directly grabbed at the oncoming sword energy.
In a single exchange, the dazzling sword light was shattered into pieces, scattering into countless fragments of brilliance.
Zuan's eyes narrowed. He had expected his opponent to be strong, but he hadn't expected him to be this strong.
In particular, these gods each possess unique divine light, which has a great restraining effect on other living beings.
In the blink of an eye, the opponent's iron claws appeared in front of him, and the entire space seemed to be shrouded in them. The opponent was obviously on guard against his teleportation skill. No matter which direction he hid in, he could not escape the fate of having his head pierced through.
