Elder Sheng was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses.
"The ranking of No. 1 on the mortal list, plus the Heavenly Dao Heart fragment as a reward, plus the method to go to the second heaven of the Holy Domain, are these not enough for you?"
"Gu Xuan, you are too greedy!"
"Elder Saint, don't talk nonsense to him. There are so many of us joining forces to teach this kid a lesson!
Otherwise, he doesn’t know how high the sky and the earth are!”
For a time, one of the core executives was angry.
Gu Xuan glanced at these old men lightly.
Although they are all king-level peak warriors, and I am afraid they also have many ways to beat the pack, they are too old.
Most people have half their foot in the coffin.
For people who don't live long but want to continue living, Gu Xuan is the best solution.
"Don't worry, everyone, I, Gu Xuan, am not an ungrateful person.
Although I have to increase the price, I will definitely offer revenge that satisfies the Holy Elder in exchange.
Holy Elder, why don’t you listen to my conditions first?”
Gu Xuan looked at the Holy Elder and smiled.
The Holy Elder snorted coldly, expressing his extreme dissatisfaction with Gu Xuan's behavior of adding insult to injury.
If I had known this, why would I have talked nonsense with Gu Xuan about these confidential matters? I would have killed him at all costs, that's all!
As for his mortal enemy, what should come will eventually come.
Even if Gu Xuan does not appear, the thirty-six puppet guardians are still there, and she will still come sooner or later.
Moreover, the holy elder has already vaguely felt that that day will not be too far away.
However, she would not be willing to die in the hands of her archenemy like this.
"Tell me, it doesn't hurt to listen to your conditions."
Elder Sheng decided to listen to Gu Xuan's words first before speaking.
As long as it's not too much, she can still consider it.
"I need to master the power of water. If you have a way, I can exchange it for the elixir.
If I have the materials, it wouldn’t hurt to help you make a few furnaces of elixirs.”
Gu Xuan said calmly.
The reason why he put forward this condition was because he had vaguely realized that the power of the five elements was an extremely important force.
Once the five elements come together, his understanding of martial arts will reach a new level.
If Gu Xuan only mastered the power of fire, then he would not put forward this condition.
A single master of the power of the five elements can also exert its power to the extreme.
However, he has now mastered four of the five elements, fire, metal, wood, and earth. He only needs the power of water to unite the five elements.
Now, when you meet Elder Sheng, a great expert in controlling the power of water, how can you not seize this opportunity?
A trace of fluctuation flashed in the eyes of the holy elder.
I originally thought that Gu Xuan had some excessive demands, but I didn't expect that it was just this.
Just letting Gu Xuan control the power of water would be a very simple matter for her.
Of course, it's easy to master and difficult to master.
However, this was not an issue she considered.
"No problem. I agree to your terms.
As soon as my mortal enemy dies, I will immediately help you master the power of water.
However, the elixir you promised to give us, as well as the elixir you will refine for us, must be discussed first and all the senior officials of the Holy Island can agree."
A hint of cunningness flashed through the eyes of the holy elder.
However, this cunning look was caught by Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan remained calm, but suddenly he felt like he had been deceived.
It seems that it is not difficult for the Holy Elder to master the power of water.
However, Gu Xuan did not regret it too much. The conditions he promised to provide the elixir recipe and help the Holy Island refine the elixir were not difficult for him.
"It seems that your senior officials are all running out of longevity, so I will give you a recipe for a seventh-grade longevity elixir.
It can increase everyone's life span by at least fifty years.
In addition, a sixth-grade realm-breaking pill is given. After taking it, a king-level warrior can directly break through a small realm.
Before I leave, I can help everyone refine one or two hundred of them, but you have to prepare the materials."
Gu Xuan thought for a moment and settled on two pill recipes.
These two elixir prescriptions can only be regarded as average among the seventh- and sixth-grade elixirs.
After all, how could he come up with the best elixir when Elder Sheng just made it clear that he had been tricked?
Gu Xuan glanced at Elder Sheng slightly, wanting to see how her expression was now. If she felt that these two pill prescriptions were too bad and got angry, he would be able to react in time.
Just make up a reason why you misremembered it, and change it to two better prescriptions. That will be fine.
At worst, help them refine a few hundred more.
Anyway, for Gu Xuan, refining seventh-grade pills and sixth-grade pills is as simple as frying beans.
However, when Gu Xuan glanced over, he found that Elder Sheng was completely stunned.
Even, his face turned faintly red for a while.
It's like, I'm very embarrassed?
Hiss——
Gu Xuanzheng felt confused, and the sounds of gasping for cold air suddenly came one after another.
The old men, like hungry wolves seeing fat chickens, stared straight at Gu Xuan with their eyes shining.
There was even a short, fat old man with a long strand of saliva left at the corner of his mouth.
The corner of Gu Xuan's mouth trembled, disgusting!
Not particular!
"Fellow Taoist Gu Xuan, you are really... really... a generous and kind person!
I thought just now that Taoist friend Gu Xuan was greedy. Now, I want to apologize for what I just thought.
I am not as honest as Taoist friend Gu Xuan!"
The old man was holding a token fragment in his hand, with a guilty look on his face.
After he finished speaking, an old man walked up to Gu Xuan quite excitedly.
"Fellow Taoist Gu Xuan, the Prime Minister can hold a boat in his belly!
What happened before was indeed just a misunderstanding!
I have to teach those blind holy guards a lesson. They dare to stop fellow Taoist Gu Xuan from climbing the ladder to heaven. They are just a bunch of pigs!"
Elder Sheng looked at Gu Xuan, and there was a trace of tenderness in his eyes.
Gu Xuan was so shocked that he almost dropped his jaw.
Is this still the same holy elder who shouted to kill him whenever he saw him, clamoring that "his crime deserves death" and wanted to kill him?
"No, something is wrong! A seventh-grade elixir recipe, a sixth-grade elixir recipe, plus one or two hundred elixirs that I personally refined, actually turned the highest-ranking people on the Holy Island into this state.
What does it look like?”
Gu Xuan held his chin, completely confused as to what was going on.
Could it be said that the seventh-grade life-enhancing pill and the sixth-grade realm-breaking pill are really that good?
Suddenly, Gu Xuan's pupils shrank.
Could it be that the entire first level of the Holy Realm doesn't even have this level of elixirs that can increase longevity and directly break through small realms?
Gu Xuan quickly recalled it in his mind.
In the Holy Treasure Pavilion, all the elixirs he used to refine, from fourth-grade pills to seventh-grade pills, were all quickly reviewed in his mind.
"Sure enough, what a big loss! There are so many elixirs there, but none of them can help people break through the realm. Almost all of them are used to heal injuries and diseases.
There is no elixir that can directly increase longevity, and there is no rubbish elixir that can even increase lifespan by a few years or ten years!
Moreover, if you take a closer look, none of these old men have a life span of more than a hundred years!
No wonder they are so excited! What a big loss! What a big loss!”
