Emperor Zhao Hao's biggest problem right now is that his lifespan is coming to an end. If there were such a longevity elixir, wouldn't he be invincible?
Yun Jianyue explained, "To ascend to the Earth Immortal realm, one must possess a unique Dao and laws. The laws governing one's body are vastly different from the laws governing the world. These longevity-enhancing elixirs are nurtured by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and thus inevitably carry the laws of heaven and earth. Naturally, they are incompatible with the Earth Immortal realm and therefore have no effect."
Yan Xuehen said, "The current emperor is invincible and not old among his peers. It's just a pity that he has already encountered the five signs of decay, and death is his inevitable end."
"What exactly does the Five Signs of Decay of the Celestial Beings mean?" This wasn't the first time Zu'an had heard this term.
“Earth Immortals are not true immortals because they have the word ‘earth’ in their name,” Yan Xuehen said. “Unless they break through to become true immortals, they will always be rejected by the will of heaven and earth. When the rejection reaches its extreme, it will trigger the five signs of decay of heaven and man. Earth Immortals will gradually die and eventually turn into dust, completely becoming one with heaven and earth.”
"Zhao Hao's Five Signs of Decay seem to have come earlier than usual. However, no one knows exactly what factors caused the Five Signs of Decay. It is only speculated that it may be related to the indelible Dao injury he suffered in the battle with the Demon Emperor."
Zu An's heart skipped a beat: "Does that mean the current Demon Emperor is also doomed?"
“He’s almost at the end of his life, which is why he summoned all the demon races to the royal court for a grand meeting. He must be making his final arrangements,” Yun Jianyue said. “The Demon Emperor is an old master who has lived for a long time, while Zhao Hao has only recently entered the Earth Immortal realm. In that great battle back then, everyone originally thought that his cultivation would be slightly higher than Zhao Hao’s, but unexpectedly, he lost by half a move, which made Zhao Hao’s invincible reputation a reality.”
Zu An's expression was strange: "Wouldn't Zhao Hao have suffered a huge loss?"
He was invincible, but having just ascended to the Earth Immortal realm, he hadn't even had a chance to enjoy his good fortune for long before he was about to face the Five Signs of Decay of Heaven and Man.
"There's no such thing as losing or not losing. When you reach their level, the things you consider are completely different from ordinary people," Yan Xuehen said, shaking her head.
Hearing the increasingly intense fighting sounds coming from afar, Zu'an asked, "Will these few spiritual herbs have any effect on your injuries? I'll go and snatch them for you."
Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen shook their heads in unison: "The higher one's cultivation level, the less likely one is to get injured, but once injured, it is difficult to recover. Although these spiritual herbs are miraculous, they are not of much use to us."
"Unless it's some very special treasure, we can only leave it to time to slowly recover."
Yu Yanluo asked which treasures could help them recover from their injuries in a short time, but the two women smiled without saying a word. Those things were too precious, and their rarity was no less than that of divine artifacts, so why bother to say it and cause trouble?
"By the way, where is that fat Taoist priest?" Yan Xuehen suddenly remembered something, looked around, but Wu Liang was nowhere to be seen.
Zu An's heart skipped a beat. He had been so concerned about their injuries that he had forgotten about the fat man. Fortunately, he had left a wisp of divine thought on the man. He looked up into the distance and said, "He went deeper into the area and didn't stop along the way, as if those spiritual herbs had no attraction for him whatsoever."
Yun Jianyue said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and follow him. I'm curious about what he's up to."
Since those medicinal herbs weren't very effective for them, Zu An gave up the idea of robbing them. The group walked straight in, and when they passed the area where the medicinal herbs were, they found that the group of people who had just been chatting and laughing were now fighting fiercely.
The two bear brothers, Xiong Da and Xiong Er, had a close relationship and a manpower advantage. The others were not stupid either, and they quickly united. However, their relationships varied. For example, Duan Tiande would never join forces with Qiao Heng, so he joined Xiong Da and Xiong Er's side.
Although their cultivation levels differed, there was no significant difference in their abilities, and the spiritual herbs changed hands several times.
Suddenly, a medicinal herb was knocked away and landed directly in front of Zu'an and his group.
Zu An instinctively caught it, feeling a chilling aura emanating from his hand. A thought struck him: this must be the Soul-Severing Nether Grass.
At that moment, two figures flew over and instinctively reached out to snatch it. One of the men shouted anxiously, "This is ours!"
The woman beside him had already seen through Zu An and his group, and hurriedly stopped him. Then she smiled at Zu An and said, "Treasures belong to the capable. Since this spiritual medicine has chosen its owner, it is the will of Heaven. Let's give it to this young master."
The woman was none other than Princess Soren, and beside her was Prince Silver Shark, who served Princess Soren day and night. The chaotic battle just now was naturally a joint effort with her to seize the prize.
She knew very well that with the fighting prowess that Zuan had just displayed, and the several unfathomable women beside him, it would be difficult for her and Silver Shark Prince to snatch back the Soul-Severing Grass even if they joined forces. Moreover, the other party had saved her before, so she might as well do him a favor.
She glanced back, a hint of regret in her eyes. Going back now would obviously mean missing the chance to seize the other medicinal herbs.
Seeing his dream girl so weak and submissive in front of another man, Prince Silver Shark was a little unhappy, but considering that even West Lion had just been defeated, he ultimately did not dare to make a move.
Zuan examined the Soul-Severing Nether Grass in his hand: "Is this medicine very important to the princess?"
Princess Soren pursed her lips: "It is indeed very important to me. An elder in my family suffered a mishap while cultivating his divine soul in his early years and needs this item for treatment. If you are willing to part with it, young master, I will certainly offer a reward that will satisfy you."
“Satisfying me is a bit difficult,” Zuan chuckled.
“Young master, please feel free to ask for anything. The Soren family still holds some influence in the Demon Realm.” Princess Soren’s eyes gleamed, and from the other party’s words, it seemed that there was room for negotiation.
