Chapter 1279: A Flood of Visitors
Chapter 1279: A Flood of Visitors
"Senior Brother Huang, please calm down."
Lu Xuan quietly stepped back a few paces and chuckled.
"Alright, alright, alright!"
The bearded old man hurriedly said.
"Junior Brother, the Gui He Yuan Dan formula you mentioned is truly too rare. I lost my composure for a moment, please forgive me."
He quickly calmed down.
"May I see the Gui He Yuan Dan?"
"Of course, Senior Brother."
Lu Xuan lightly waved his sleeve, and a pill emitting a rich aura of vitality appeared in front of Gold Tiger. The pill's surface was adorned with the ethereal images of a tortoise and a crane, clearly indicating its extraordinary nature.
"Indeed, it is the legendary Gui He Yuan Dan."
Gold Tiger examined it carefully and couldn't help but exclaim, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
If the Elixir Hall could secure the Gui He Yuan Dan formula, his position within the Sword Sect would rise significantly.
"How does Junior Brother Lu plan to handle the Grade 7 formula?"
"Studying it alone would be difficult to make progress. It would be better to hand it over to the Elixir Hall, where all the alchemists can work together to fully master the Gui He Yuan Dan."
"By doing so, Junior Brother Lu would also earn tremendous credit and receive generous rewards from the Sword Sect and the Elixir Hall."
He said with a gentle smile.
"Please allow me some time to consider it."
Lu Xuan had only come to inform the Elixir Hall and had no immediate plans to contribute the formula. With the existence of the light orb, he wasn't worried about his alchemical refinement skills stagnating. Keeping the formula would maximize his own benefits.
"Alright."
Gold Tiger's expression was somewhat disappointed, but seeing that Lu Xuan was resolute, he didn't press the issue further.
After a brief chat, Lu Xuan got up to take his leave.
"Grade 7 Gui He Yuan Dan..."
"An elixir that can extend the lifespan of a Nascent Soul True Lord by over a century; such a rare elixir should be kept in the hands of the Elixir Hall."
He murmured to himself as he watched Lu Xuan disappear.
Then, he transformed into a stream of light and entered the deepest part of the Elixir Hall, passing through a mysterious restriction to reach a stone chamber.
Pushing open the stone door covered in strange patterns, a rich aroma of medicinal herbs filled his nostrils.
Inside the stone chamber, over a dozen powerful and long-lived spirits and magical creatures were confined. Threads of vitality flowed into a central stone pit, where an old man with white hair and a faint aura of life lay.
The old man was curled up in the stone pit, like an infant in the womb, being nourished by the threads of vitality.
This was the Grand Elder of the Elixir Hall, Dan Lingzi, a Nascent Soul late-stage cultivator whose lifespan was nearly exhausted and who had been sustaining himself with various magical creatures.
"Senior Brother, I've come to see you."
Gold Tiger whispered.
Dan Lingzi slowly opened his eyes: "What is it?"
"Here's the matter. The sect has a junior brother named Lu Xuan, proficient in various cultivation techniques, especially in cultivating sword grass. He has even improved a new variety of Grade 6 sword grass."
"Just now, Junior Brother Lu told me that he accidentally obtained the Gui He Yuan Dan formula and successfully refined several elixirs."
"If Senior Brother takes one or two, it will certainly extend your lifespan, and you might even reach the Nascent Soul Perfection Level, making Soul Transformation a possibility."
Gold Tiger lowered his head and spoke slowly.
"Ha ha, Gui He Yuan Dan."
The vitality in the stone pit surged, and the old man's withered face visibly regained color.
"Such a formula must be controlled by the Elixir Hall."
Dan Lingzi looked determined.
Deep within the Cavernous Mystery Realm.
Sword qi filled the sky, raging like a storm, and the sound of sword whistles was deafening.
An elderly man with a withered face and wearing rough clothing sat cross-legged amidst a swirling mist of sword qi. With each breath, a dense, white sword qi emerged from his body.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and gazed into the distance.
A small wooden sword with sharp wings darted swiftly through the air and came to a halt in front of him.
"Why would Junior Brother Chongxu suddenly contact me? Could something have happened on the Sword Peak?"
He muttered to himself.
This man was Lingxiaozhi, the former sword master of Chongxu Sword Peak, who had reached the Nascent Soul Perfection Level. After stepping down, he had secluded himself in the Cavernous Mystery Realm, dedicating himself to the pursuit of Soul Transformation.
Though his time was limited, his mindset was remarkably open and calm.
"Lingxiaozhi, do you know Junior Brother Lu Xuan from True Sword Peak?"
The voice of the current Chongxu Sword Master, aged and resonant, came from the wooden sword.
Lingxiaozhi nodded gently. Although he had distanced himself from the trivial matters of the Sword Sect and was deeply immersed in his secluded cultivation in the Cavernous Mystery Realm, he had long heard of the new Nascent Soul cultivator who had improved the cultivation of sixth-grade sword grass.
"Junior Brother Lu Xuan has refined the Grade 7 Tortoise Crane Elixir. Such a superior longevity elixir—if you are interested, you might try to obtain one or two."
"The Tortoise Crane Elixir, indeed, is a fine longevity elixir."
During his travels through the Heavenly Realms, he had obtained several rare longevity treasures, but he had never possessed the Tortoise Crane Elixir. Hearing this news, he became quite intrigued.
True Sword Peak.
Lu Xuan quietly returned to his cave abode, unaware that the news of his possession of the Tortoise Crane Elixir had caused a significant stir among his senior fellow disciples.
"Well, I have told everything I needed to. With Senior Brother Zhenren's protection, I only need to carefully choose the treasures I will exchange."
He was eagerly anticipating the upcoming treasure exchange.
The longer one lived and the more powerful one became, the more one feared death. The Tortoise Crane Elixir, being such a special treasure, was akin to a rare gem among cultivators.
However, he had underestimated the allure of the Tortoise Crane Elixir for those nearing the end of their lives.
Within half an hour, a cultivator arrived at his door.
Outside the cave abode, the white ape was dozing with its eyes closed when it suddenly sensed something. It lifted its head and looked into the distance.
Before it could react, a cold, white light appeared before it, and a woman with an icy demeanor emerged from the light.
The woman's exposed face, neck, and other areas were covered in countless pale blue patterns, resembling snowflakes, as if her entire vitality was frozen. The white ape felt a chill rise from within upon seeing her.
"I am Cold Jade Phoenix from the Sword Palace, here to pay respects to Junior Brother Lu Xuan."
Upon hearing this, the white ape shivered, having just returned to its normal state.
To better fulfill its duty as a guardian, it had deliberately studied the many Nascent Soul True Lords of the Sword Sect and was well aware of the significance of this name.
The woman before him was one of the Sword Palace's elders from several hundred years ago, renowned for her mastery of the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword Technique. She had rarely appeared in the sect over the past century, and it was unexpected that she would seek out his master.
"Your humble servant greets Elder Cold."
The white ape bowed respectfully, about to notify Lu Xuan when another colorful light appeared outside the cave abode.
It was a child, about three feet tall, wearing a mysterious garment woven from talisman scrolls. Silver-white jade rings encircled the child's neck and limbs, seemingly capable of locking in vitality and aura, making the child appear like an ordinary child.
"Is this a spirit beast under the care of Junior Brother Lu Xuan? Please inform him that I, Fulong from Tianlu Sword Peak, have come to pay my respects."
The child smiled at the white ape.
"Fulong, Nascent Soul Late Stage, Supreme Elder of Tianlu Sword Peak."
"Cold Jade Phoenix, also Nascent Soul Late Stage."
"More are coming!"
The white ape stared blankly into the distance, at a loss.
"Why are so many powerful cultivators from the Sword Sect visiting Master today?!"
