Chapter 387: The Elixir of Immortality's Whereabouts
Meng Huangliang's condition!
The power of three witnesses creating a false rumor!
This was an absolute case of three witnesses creating a false rumor!
Su Ping wanted to immediately refute such a rumor.
However, listening to the meaning behind the words of the Holy Dragon Legend, Su Ping's interest in the so-called temporal dragon breed grew even stronger.
What kind of dragon companion could make both the Holy Dragon Legend and the legendary Candle Dragon speak up, expressing their rare and scarce exclamations? Su Ping was very curious.
Therefore, facing such a rumor, he could only silently endure it.
No matter, it's uncertain if that thing would have the fortune to become his contract companion beast!
Hence, Su Ping stopped inquiring about this topic and chose to remain silent, indicating his stance.
However, the person in front of him seemed to have misunderstood Su Ping's intention. With a gesture that made Su Ping feel flattered, he patted Su Ping's shoulder and said with a smile:
"Don't feel pressured! Elder Zhu's matter can be appropriately delayed. Your immediate concern in breeding is still the Celestial Tomb!"
At this point, Su Ping thought for a moment and spoke up:
"Holy Dragon, I want to enter the Celestial Tomb with you!"
As expected, upon hearing this, the man's eyebrows slowly furrowed, and his black pupils fixed on Su Ping.
His gaze was deep and mysterious, and although his face was ordinary, there was an indescribable depth in his eyes.
"Are you sure?"
Su Ping nodded.
A smile appeared on the man's face:
"Having such courage is naturally great! However, do you know the dangers within the Celestial Tomb? Or, do you truly understand the Celestial Tomb?"
Su Ping's eyes narrowed slightly.
He shook his head and then nodded.
The man didn't seem to mind his ambiguous response and explained:
"If my guess is correct, the Celestial Tomb might involve a mythical secret!"
Su Ping's eyelids twitched.
"Although I haven't reached that realm, I can make some guesses. It's even possible that it includes some resurrection methods of that unknown mythical being!"
"Resurrection? Can they be resurrected? The mythical level is just a guess and legend. In the history of Blue Star Beastmasters, has there ever been any real contact with mythical beings? After such a long time, can they still be resurrected?"
Su Ping didn't understand.
The man shook his head: "Even Water Sovereign and Fire Sovereign, who have reached the peak of legendary totems, can leave behind a backup for resurrection. In the more ancient times of mythical beings, it's natural that they also have such abilities."
Su Ping's breath momentarily stalled.
His previous confidence in exploring the Celestial Tomb with his trump cards shattered in an instant.
At his level, was it a bit beyond his capabilities to face a possible mythical being?
If he were to truly encounter such a being, would the Eternal Dragon Soul still be effective? Su Ping didn't know.
However, words once spoken were like water that couldn't be taken back. Soon, the Holy Dragon Legend also restored Su Ping's confidence:
"However, it's very difficult for any being to achieve resurrection. There are a total of four Celestial Tombs, and in the present world, there's only the one that appeared a few years ago across the ocean. This proves that even if my guess is correct, there won't truly be a being of that level appearing. Moreover, the most important thing is..."
The man's eyes narrowed slightly, and his black pupils calmly looked at Su Ping, but he didn't speak further.
How intelligent was he?
Charles' intentions and words were almost entirely understood by him at that time.
He wanted to turn Su Ping into a creature like himself, controlled by that thing that might exist within the Celestial Tomb.
Therefore, even if Su Ping entered the Celestial Tomb, there was a high probability that he wouldn't face any real danger to his life! Even his soul, self-awareness, and memory would be safe.
The only danger would be something like what Charles experienced...
However, he couldn't stop Su Ping, who wanted to enter the Celestial Tomb. He also wanted to see if this 'successor' he had high hopes for could meet his requirements.
Thinking of this, the man continued:
"Su Ping, do you know about Dragon Gate?"
He didn't know before, but he had recently learned about it. After interacting with Dragon City, the appearance of Dragon Gate had become very frequent.
He also guessed some of its effects:
"Is it a treasure or resource that can detect a companion beast's potential for dragon transformation?"
The Holy Dragon Legend smiled:
"That's right! Any companion beast that passes through Dragon Gate can have its dragon transformation potential detected. Moreover, Dragon Gate is also the key and controller of Dragon City. Without Dragon Gate, there would be no Dragon City.
It can even be said that without Dragon Gate, there wouldn't be any systematic dragon companion beasts, except for those that evolved by chance and remained in the outside world, due to some coincidental evolution."
Su Ping's heart stirred, and he finally asked again:
"Holy Dragon, aside from evolving from other companion beasts, do dragons have any other means of reproduction?"
The Holy Dragon Legend chuckled:
"That's right! How else would dragon eggs come about? This time, the top three in the final trial will all receive a dragon companion as a reward, and these three will be given in egg form.
In fact, dragons can also reproduce through mating, but this method is somewhat different from the normal understanding of companion beasts."
When it came to this topic, the man in front of him didn't seem to mind.
However, Su Ping still felt a little embarrassed and rubbed his nose.
Discussing this seriously was a bit strange, but Su Ping was also interested in the secrets of the dragon clan.
(End)
"The fusion of dragon souls is the method of dragon reproduction, but there is an issue. The merging of souls gives birth to a new dragon soul.
However, except in special cases, dragon bodies are required for all dragon races, even for the mental clan fairy dragons. During their growth period, they still need a physical body to coalesce.
Within the Dragon Gate, every five years, a special resource called Dragon God's Blood is secreted. Of course, this Dragon God's Blood is not only produced independently but also through other means.
Only the young dragon souls born from the fusion can truly merge with the Dragon God's Blood to give birth to a true dragon!
The born dragon race has a chance to exhibit attribute mutations, but overall, it still depends on the bloodline of both soul descendants. "
Now it made sense! Su Ping nodded, then asked with some curiosity:
"So, the allocation of Dragon God's Blood is the main reason for the competition among the various heritage sites in Dragon City? The competition among the heritage sites is for the sake of..."
Su Ping didn't say the three words, but the meaning was clear enough for the other party to understand.
The man nodded:
"There are rules in Dragon City. Every five years, there will be some evaluations among the various heritage sites.
The more results each heritage site achieves within the five-year period, the more Dragon God's Blood they will naturally receive.
However, in reality, although the competition seems intense, there is actually enough Dragon God's Blood to go around. Instead, it's the Dragon Kings of the various heritage sites competing to prove their strength.
The dragon race is combative. Since they can't fight among themselves, they can only find enjoyment in these aspects."
Not to mention anything else, Su Ping absolutely believed in the dragon race's combative nature.
Even a relatively laid-back dragon like Big Yellow was the same. Except for when facing the true form of the Fire Sovereign, he was slightly intimidated, but other than that, this guy never backed down.
Oh, no, now Su Ping also knew that Big Yellow and Master Zhu Hong seemed intimidated by the Ice Dragon Queen.
"I mentioned before that if you can initially resist the interference of the Celestial Grave Mark and have sufficient willpower, I can let you have a preliminary contact with the Dragon Gate. Now it seems you're doing well, so prepare yourself, and I'll take you to experience the Dragon Gate..."
If it was before, Su Ping didn't know what the Dragon Gate represented or the meaning of the man's words.
He might not have felt anything.
After all, it was just a test to see if a companion beast had the potential to become a dragon.
But after hearing the man's explanation, Su Ping understood what the Dragon Gate represented.
And he understood the significance of experiencing the Dragon Gate.
For a moment, he was truly hesitant to accept:
"Legendary Sir, I..."
"Don't worry, this is just an initial contact, it doesn't represent anything. Don't feel pressured. Moreover, the Dragon Gate might be able to help you with your current situation.
Alright, do you have any other questions? Ask them all, we have plenty of time, no rush."
The man calmly interrupted Su Ping.
Indeed, this man's personality was domineering.
However, there wasn't much to refuse in this situation.
Any other questions? Su Ping actually wanted to ask about the Green Jade Spring Ginseng, for the one he found in Tian Shan gave him a very eerie feeling.
It was also for this reason that he didn't bring it with him to the Imperial Capital this time.
But after thinking about it, Su Ping still didn't ask. Instead, he asked a question related to the Green Jade Spring Ginseng:
"Legendary Sir, I want to ask, do you know where to find the Elixir of Immortality?"
Upon hearing this, the Holy Dragon Legend was slightly taken aback:
"Hmm? What do you want it for? Do you have someone close to you whose lifespan is almost up? But, for you to look for this, it should be a close relative, but your close relative..."
Obviously, this man already knew his background, so there was no need to say more.
Su Ping himself, Su An Yong, and even his great-uncle Rong Bao didn't need this elixir to extend their lives.
However, the Holy Dragon Legend didn't continue asking. Instead, after a pause, he surprisingly answered:
"But, to be honest, I do know where it is."
Su Ping's eyes widened in anticipation as he looked at the man.
This time, the man didn't keep him guessing and spoke directly:
"It's not in our country, it's in the hands of the Lion Kingdom's royalty."
"What?"
Su Ping frowned, but it made sense. If this elixir was known to others, it would be difficult to obtain.
But he hadn't expected it to be this challenging.
"Then, Legendary Sir, do you have any other information?"
"You kid, you're really shameless. Legendary resources usually have uniqueness.
Legendary resources contain corresponding rule powers. These powers are singular, and only one exists at a time.
The Elixir of Immortality has been in the hands of the Lion Kingdom for over a few decades. There's also a hidden secret about it, hehe."
The Legendary Sir, usually stoic, suddenly became gossip-like:
"Among the Hall-level advanced skills, there's a wood-type advanced skill called 'Life Forest Matrix'! It's mastered by a female breeder named Earslin Konner in the Lion Kingdom!"
Su Ping suddenly realized who it was:
"The female breeder who committed war crimes and crimes against humanity, the one hunted down by beastmaster forces worldwide?"
The Holy Dragon Legend wasn't surprised by Su Ping's knowledge, and he showed a disdainful expression:
"What war crimes and crimes against humanity? She's just a breeder from the Lion Kingdom. Many beastmaster forces, even some fierce beast empires, helped, but this help wasn't purely for maintaining peace.
It was equally important for their self-interest, of course. Our Dragon Nation is no exception."
Su Ping was even more curious. "Oh? Why?"
"The discoverer of the Elixir of Immortality is Earslin Konner, and she managed to obtain it.
According to speculation, the extraordinary Hall Tier Supreme Skill, Life Forest Matrix, was likely cultivated using this Elixir of Immortality as the main ingredient.
Initially, the female Grand Master Breeder hid it well, but later, for some unknown reason, she was exposed. The Queen of the Lion Kingdom ordered her to hand over the Elixir of Immortality, but she was firmly refused. Hence, the Green Forest Calamity occurred."
After a pause, the man continued his chatter. "The peacekeeping forces of various countries, naturally, are also after that hidden legendary Wood Clan Life Clan resource, the Elixir of Immortality.
Later, the Life Forest Matrix was completely eliminated, and the female Grand Master Breeder eventually succumbed. She made a deal with the royal family, handing over the Elixir of Immortality to the Lion Kingdom's royalty.
The female Grand Master Breeder's family, the Konner family, also became the 'iron hat' family of the Lion Kingdom. Over these decades, they became the holders of the Imperial Library on the Lion Kingdom's side.
They are also the leaders of the Lion Kingdom's breeding master community, and each generation holds hereditary titles awarded by the royal family.
At the same time, the Life Forest Matrix skill is probably also mastered. Additionally, with the Elixir of Immortality, it's very likely that there are already results.
This is also why, over these years, the Lion Kingdom's status and strength have declined, yet there are still very few people who dare to challenge them. Recently, I heard that the western region seems quite turbulent?"
"It's said that a group of people united under a religious faith and established a Faithful Kingdom. Quite interesting."
The man didn't hide anything and openly spoke of these world-class secrets.
It's worth mentioning that if it wasn't for the fact that it didn't concern him, Su Ping would usually be quite interested in these kinds of messy gossip.
But clearly, the current problem isn't this.
Life Forest Matrix? Earslin Konner? Lion Kingdom's royalty?
W
Shaking his head, this method is only to be used as a last resort. Otherwise, it's better not to try it lightly.
The Elixir of Immortality, for now, seems out of reach.
He could only helplessly look at the Holy Dragon Legend in front of him, who was still eager to gossip, and asked another question. "Legendary Sir, I have another question. I want to ask, is Meng Huangliang Meng Senior still around?"
Upon hearing this, the man who was still eager to gossip slightly frowned, but soon relaxed. "Meng Yan will not die. For a loyalist, Dragon Nation and I will not let him die.
But sometimes, being alive is not much different from being dead."
Su Ping was slightly stunned, hearing the implied meaning. "Meng Senior's condition is not good?"
The Holy Dragon Legend nodded. "Yes, the Mental Clan is the most special domain, encompassing all things. This can be seen from the complexity of the Beastmaster talent.
Meng Yan was exposed during an operation. While entering the Dream Entry, he was ambushed. Although he reacted quickly, he was left with a peculiar mark.
If it wasn't for the fact that the person wanted to spare Meng Yan's life and instead wanted to turn him to steal Dragon Nation's secrets, he should have died long ago.
But in the end, relying on the backup plan left behind and my personal visit, he was barely brought back. However, his mental state over these years has been very poor.
He is also a true genius. When he wanted to carry out this operation, there were people who opposed it, unfortunately.
Are you very interested in him? Or should I say you're interested in the 'Dream Entry' skill?"
Between nations, there is no right or wrong. Naturally, Su Ping also acknowledged this. "It's that bad? Even you can't do anything?"
"Su Ping, spiritual cognition is the concentration and cognition of self-will. Emerald Dreamland and I have also made a lot of efforts, but he himself can't distinguish between reality and dreams,
Yet he maintains the high vigilance and wariness of a long-term infiltrator, knowing that he has been exposed, and his self-enclosure. Even with the breeding method of Dream Entry, it's impossible to obtain information from him again.
For a loyalist, Dragon Nation will not use methods like Mind Extraction. So, I advise you not to waste your efforts."
The man rarely offered advice.
Clearly, if even this person finds it thorny, Meng Huangliang's situation is indeed very bad.
Su Ping also pursed his lips.
No way!
The Elixir of Immortality indeed has no solution. This trip can't be in vain. It's only right to give it a try.
Thinking of this, Su Ping looked at the man. "I don't know where Meng Senior is. I want to visit him!"
The man looked at him deeply, then smiled. "Good, he's in the Life Source Rehabilitation Hospital in the capital, a very ordinary hospital. Go and see him for me."
It seemed that the man's interest was also not high, and he breathed out a long sigh. "Okay, let's go and see Dragon Gate."
