What does the elixir of immortality taste like?
Chen Chu can say with certainty that the elixir tastes very good.
They come in various flavors, but they're not barbecue or beef flavors. Instead, they have a fresh, grassy aroma, and some even have a floral scent.
The texture is somewhat similar to candied beans, but it's not as cloying; instead, it has a refreshing sweetness.
Chen Chu picked up a gourd of elixirs and poured it directly into his mouth.
Everyone looked on and exclaimed, "Hiss... There are people who eat elixirs like this?"
Even though Laozi's lips twitched, he had a feeling that he wanted to take back his promise.
After finishing the bottle of gourd, Chen Chu felt a bit bloated.
"Don't rush, absorb these pills first before eating the next...the next gourd!"
Laozi originally wanted to say, "Eat one before you eat the next," but at the last minute, he changed his mind.
Fine, let him eat however he wants!
Chen Chu let out a burp, and the burp itself exuded a spiritual aura.
Afraid of wasting it, Chen Chu took another sip.
"Alright, alright, this old Taoist priest will lend you a hand!"
Lao Jun flicked his whisk, and Chen Chu suddenly had a sudden realization. He sat cross-legged on the ground.
The surrounding scenery suddenly changed!
Monkey King, Nezha, and the others have also disappeared.
He sat alone in a Taoist temple. The temple did not enshrine any gods or immortals. Instead, he sat on the altar, overlooking everything inside and outside the temple.
It seemed as if immortals were chanting some scriptures in my ears.
He was slowly absorbing the spiritual essence of the elixir within his body.
Chen Chu stopped worrying, closed her eyes, and lost track of how much time had passed.
He could only feel himself gradually becoming hungry.
Seasons change, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, Chen Chu was wearing the armor of a celestial soldier, which was still as clean and new as it had been ten years!
With his current level of cultivation, there is naturally no excess dirt on his body.
However, his beard and hair are already very similar to those of people from ancient times.
Even his fingernails had grown much longer.
"I actually spent ten years absorbing a gourd of pills?"
A sudden realization dawned on Chen Chu's mind, and his current strength had already reached the peak of the first realm of immortality!
This is true immortal power.
But ten years is enough time for many things to change in the outside world.
Chen Chu only lived to be twenty years old, and ten years had passed in the blink of an eye. He simply couldn't bear the loneliness.
"Let me out!"
Chen Chu roared in anger, only to find that he couldn't leave the Taoist temple at all.
"Either you force your way out now, or you consume the elixir and then force your way out..."
The old Taoist's voice was ethereal and seemed to come from nowhere.
Chen Chu frowned. "Could I have been set up?"
But if you really want to die, you don't need to go through all this trouble.
Unless you deliberately trap yourself here.
What's the point of trapping yourself here?
Even on the shelf next to it, there were gourds filled with elixirs.
This doesn't seem like harming oneself at all.
Chen Chu thought a lot; he thought of the Heavenly Court, the Underworld, and all living beings in the Three Realms and Six Paths...
As long as I'm still here, the instance won't end, and will what happens inside the instance affect the future?
This Laozi must have some ulterior motive!
However, Chen Chu had no other choice but to take pills and forcefully break through to the next realm!
Chen Chu picked up a gourd of pills and poured them into his mouth.
This time, he had no intention of tasting the pill. After the pill entered his mouth, it turned into a clear stream and flowed into his stomach. This time, he did not feel the discomfort he had when he was at the Great Emperor realm.
So Chen Chu picked up another gourd of pills and swallowed them.
"I can still eat!"
In order to leave this place as quickly as possible, Chen Chu directly activated his Immortal Domain and scattered all the pills in the gourd.
He can't eat that much, but the Immortal Realm can help him withstand it!
After emptying the two gourds, the Immortal Realm was already showing signs of strain!
Four bottles of pills were already Chen Chu's limit!
"Come!"
Chen Chu then closed his eyes and began to meditate again.
The spiritual essence of the elixir was gradually absorbed by him.
In the blink of an eye, the peach blossoms outside the Taoist temple bloomed and faded, autumn harvests and winter storage passed, and countless years have gone by.
Chen Chu's beard was long enough to drag on the ground.
The dust that covered him had actually turned him into a statue.
He finally opened his eyes.
"Have thirty years passed?"
With a ripple of energy, all the dust around him vanished.
His eyes held a divine light, but no matter who looked at him, he seemed like just an ordinary mortal.
Divine light concealed, realm perfected!
Although Chen Chu looked like an ordinary person, the space seemed unstable as soon as he waved his hand.
"Now that things have come to this, what ability do you have to stop me!"
Just as Chen Chu was about to make a move, he thought about it again, then reached out and swept away all the elixir gourds on the shelves inside the Taoist temple.
We can't have come all this way for nothing.
"You're full, but you want to take some more with you?"
The old Taoist's voice rang out, and Chen Chu also felt his surroundings begin to change.
Monkey King, Nezha, Erlang Shen, and others were all standing nearby.
But Laozi smiled helplessly, "Very well, if you can take it out, then take it out!"
Chen Chu's own changes had not disappeared; his beard had indeed reached his waist, and his hair was hanging down like willow branches.
"Monkey King, you...you're still here?"
Chen Chu was a little confused, but Lao Jun explained with a smile.
"Just now, the old Taoist priest used Taoist magic on you. The world changes in the blink of an eye. Although you have experienced so much time, only three to five days have passed here!"
In just three to five days, he felt like he had lived for decades!
Is there really a Taoist art in this world that can change time?
No, that's not right. He could sense that Laozi was very strong, but there were only so many others stronger than him.
Suddenly, Chen Chu remembered what Monkey King had once said: "One day in heaven is equivalent to one year on earth."
Perhaps Laozi simply placed himself in a lower realm where the flow of time differed from that of the outside world.
Chen Chu looked at Monkey King, who smiled and nodded, "You're quite sensible, Laozi. Now that Chen Chu has eaten all your pills, it's time for you to tell us where the Jade Emperor is!"
"I don't know the Jade Emperor's whereabouts either. He left the Heavenly Court a long time ago. The day he issued the decree to arrest you, he had already left the Heavenly Court. With his abilities, it would be very difficult for others to find him if he wanted to remain undetected!"
Lao Jun shook his head, and just as Monkey King frowned, about to get angry, he continued.
"However, when the Jade Emperor left, he went to the Moon Palace. Perhaps you can find clues there."
"Guanghan Palace, isn't that the Moon Palace?"
Chen Chuyi suddenly had a very bad feeling when he thought about the Secret of the Moon Palace he had experienced!
