Mortal: The Number One playboy of the Chaotic Star Sea

Chapter 146 The Elixir of Immortality

"This fragrance... it even contains a trace of vitality! There might still be an elixir of immortality here!"

Mu Xuzi sniffed; he was all too familiar with this scent.

Upon hearing Mu Xuzi's words, the Gu brothers hurriedly stuffed a few pills to restore their mana and eagerly stepped into the central courtyard area.

The others, disregarding the need to restore their magical power, headed straight for the neatly arranged skeletons of demonic beasts in the central courtyard.

"Everyone be careful, don't go over that pool yet, let's go around it first."

Jin Qing offered a reminder.

"I know, I know!"

Old Hu waved his hand, summoned his natal flying magic weapon, and bypassed the pool.

Unlike Lao Hu and the others who were impatient, Qing Feng remained calm and kept the Zhenhai Demon Refining Tower above his head.

"The restriction has been broken, why is Brother Qing wasting his magic power?"

Seeing Qingfeng's caution, Ling Yuling asked in confusion.

"Better safe than sorry. Brother Ling, you should take this to heart."

Qingfeng summoned the Xuan Bone Puppet to his side and had it stand guard to his side.

Seeing Qingfeng's caution, Han Li quickly followed behind him.

He then summoned his magic weapon, the Green Radiance Sword, and held it in his hand while consuming a large number of pills to restore his magical power.

At this time, Han Li had not yet had time to refine his natal magic weapon, nor had he passed the tribulation of the mortal world.

Among early-stage Core Formation cultivators, his strength wasn't much stronger; only his magical power was relatively more profound.

"Hehe, fellow Daoists, any one of these items is priceless. Why are you still standing outside?"

Mu Xuzi walked past the Yin Pool and looked back in surprise at Qingfeng and the other two who were lagging behind.

"The Yin energy in this courtyard is too heavy. I just used up a lot of my spiritual power. I need to recover some of my mana first. If Fellow Daoist Mu is in a hurry to find the Void Heaven Remnant Map, you can go ahead first."

Qingfeng said slowly.

"I see, hehe. What about Fellow Daoist Han and Fellow Daoist Ling?"

Mu Xuzi's smile froze slightly, and he turned to look at the other two.

"I'm not in a hurry."

Ling Yuling wasn't interested in what treasures were inside; she just wanted to experience the exploration process and focus on participation.

"I will go with Brother Qing, Fellow Daoist Mu need not worry."

Han Li cupped his hands in greeting. He vaguely sensed that Mu Xuzi in front of him had a strange expression, so he took a step back.

"Hehe, alright, then I'll head over first, otherwise Fellow Daoist Jin and the others might discover the treasures first."

Seeing the three of them dawdling, Mu Xuzi's eyes flashed with a hint of urgency.

But his face still wore a kind smile.

"Come quick! There's something good here!"

At this moment, Lao Hu, Jin Qing, and others who had been the first to explore for the treasure exclaimed in surprise.

Upon hearing their voices, Mu Xuzi swayed and swept past the Yin Pool, heading directly towards the area of ​​the demon skeleton.

At this moment, Jin Qing and the others couldn't wait any longer and opened a box.

As soon as the box of animal bones was opened even a crack, a peculiar medicinal fragrance wafted out.

After the animal bone box was fully opened, three crystal-clear jade bottles were found inside.

"This taste...it's like an elixir of immortality!"

Mu Xuzi, who had rushed over, stepped forward, picked up a jade bottle, uncorked it, and took a gentle sniff. His face lit up with ecstasy.

"An elixir of immortality that increases lifespan?!"

Jin Qing was very excited and quickly went forward to check.

"This is naturally an elixir of immortality. Judging by its quality and potency, each pill can easily extend one's lifespan by ten years!"

Mu Xuzi stared greedily at the three jade bottles.

The Void Heaven Palace, which produces Longevity Fruit, only opens once every three hundred years.

Pills that can increase lifespan are rare even in the Chaotic Star Sea. For cultivators with limited lifespans, they are priceless treasures.

"Old Hu, quick! Open the other boxes and check!"

Jin Qing looked excitedly at the other animal bone boxes.

"Okay!"

Old Hu opened each of the boxes containing animal bones.

Inside the opened box of animal bones were magical artifacts, unknown gems, and a perfectly sealed bottle of elixirs...

There was even a box containing a deep purple demon beast core, the size of a pigeon egg, radiating immense demonic power.

"Heavens! This is the demon core of the Purple Nether Beast!"

Old Hu exclaimed in surprise.

"The Purple Nether Beast! That's a rare monster that lives in the Monster Sea Abyss region!"

Its demon core is an extremely rare and priceless material, whether used in elixirs or weapon crafting!

Shi Die quickly stepped forward and looked at the demon core in Lao Hu's hand.

She was a second-generation immortal from Red Moon Island, but she still exclaimed in surprise upon seeing such a treasure.

"Haha, all our hard work in breaking through the formation wasn't in vain!"

Jin Qing was overjoyed to see the resources and treasures scattered all over the ground.

"Fellow Daoists, let's gather these treasures together first. After we've counted them, we'll distribute them according to the rules we agreed on earlier."

As he spoke, he gestured to everyone to gather the opened animal bone boxes together.

Old Hu chuckled, carefully placed the Purple Nether Beast Demon Core back into the box, and carried it along with several other boxes to the open space in the middle.

Old Jian also came over, carrying the treasure he had found.

Shi Die smiled and put down the jade bottle in her hand, her gaze sweeping over the pile of treasures, secretly calculating how much she could get.

However, Mu Xuzi remained standing still.

He held the three jade bottles containing the elixir of immortality tightly in his hand.

"Fellow Daoist Mu?"

Jin Qing noticed something was wrong and looked up.

"Bring the pills over as well, so we can estimate their value together."

Upon hearing Jin Qing's words, Mu Xuzi's smile gradually faded.

"Fellow Daoist Jin, fellow Daoists, I have a request."

He was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke.

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him.

"I am nearing the end of my life, as you all can probably tell."

These three bottles of elixir of immortality are a matter of life and death for this old man.

As for the other treasures, I can give them all to you without taking a single penny. But this elixir of immortality must belong to me.

Mu Xuzi's voice lowered.

"Fellow Daoist Mu, we have already agreed that all treasures will be divided equally according to their value. Fellow Daoists Qingfeng, Shidie, and Han will each receive an extra share for their efforts."

The rest we'll divide equally among everyone. Since this elixir of immortality was found here, it should naturally be included among the treasures and distributed according to the rules.

Jin Qing frowned.

"Fellow Daoist Jin, I have no intention of breaking the rules."

However, this elixir of immortality holds a different meaning for me than ordinary treasures.

Mu Xuzi shook his head, looked up at everyone, and his gaze swept across each person's face.

"I have cultivated for over four hundred years, and now my lifespan is coming to an end. If I do not have anything to prolong my life, I will have no more than twenty or thirty years left."

Each of these longevity pills can extend my life by more than ten years.

I am not greedy for anything else. All these magical treasures and demon core materials will be divided equally among you all. I will not take a single penny.

All I ask is that you leave all three bottles of the Longevity Pill to me.

Isn't that unfair?

"That's unfair."

A clear, crisp female voice rang out.

"Fellow Daoist Mu, you make it sound so easy. These three bottles of Longevity Pills contain at least nine or ten pills."

"You think you can just take all these things for yourself because you only want the elixir of immortality?"

Shi Die stepped forward and said in a cold voice.
