Perfect version: Elixir of Immortality
Half an hour later, on Flying Peak in Yunmeng Marsh.
When Li Boyang arrived at the mountain god temple, he was playing with the [Voice Transmission Talisman] in his hand with great interest.
He spotted Deception Rabbit squatting at the temple entrance, looking pitiful.
What did you do now?
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Boyang turned his gaze to Xiluo on the big tree next to him.
Having transformed back into her Wenli form, Xiluo sharpened her claws on a tree trunk while occasionally glancing Deception Rabbit.
I was just stating the facts.
"You've gone to such lengths for them; they need to know what you've done."
Upon hearing this, Li Boyang paused for a moment, then glared at Xiluo with a hint of helplessness.
You're always causing me trouble.
"Don't look so sad, what did Xiluo say to you?"
In the brief moment of their conversation, Li Boyang had already walked up to Deception Rabbit's side.
At this moment, the tall Deception Rabbit squatted next to Li Boyang, looking as docile as a real rabbit.
"The Grandmother Mountain God said that if we want to completely protect Xuansu Shi and the child in her womb, we must refine this extremely special elixir."
"The ingredients for that special elixir are extremely rare. Even for you, it would be a huge risk to obtain it."
Upon hearing what Deception Rabbit said, Li Boyang knew that Xiluo was exaggerating again.
Although the final conclusion was correct, the process in between was clearly misinterpreted by Xiluo.
"Hmm, have you ever heard of the Elixir of Immortality?"
After a moment's hesitation, Li Boyang did not rush to explain, but instead asked Deception Rabbit a question in return.
"I know. The Grandmother Mountain God has already told me everything that has happened in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range over the years."
"This includes your perfecting of the Elixir of Immortality of the Six Witches of Kaiming," allowing Kunyu to possess true immortality."
At this point, Deception Rabbit made no attempt to hide the astonishment and shock on his face.
He felt like he had only left the Hundred Lands Mountain Range a few years ago.
But what happened here was far beyond his imagination.
The Wu Yi Shoots at Heaven, the disaster in the South Sea, and the elixir of immortality are already true myths.
Even after thousands or tens of thousands of years, this will still be a myth that continues to be passed down in the world.
"In that case, shouldn't Xiluo also tell you that I've been trying to replicate the Elixir of Immortality?"
He nodded affirmatively; of course, Deception Rabbit knew.
He even learned from Xiluo about Li Boyang's dark history of constantly exploding the furnace recently.
However, Deception Rabbit wisely refrained from mentioning those dark secrets of his past.
After Deception Rabbit was naturally mischievous and had no sense of propriety, he was still able to restrain himself at this time.
"To be honest, I overestimated my abilities and underestimated the complexity of the Elixir of Immortality."
"I originally thought I could replicate the components of the Immortality Herb and then refine my own unique Elixir of Immortality."
I looked down at my hands.
A rare look of resentment appeared on Li Boyang's face.
Now that he is an adult, his essence, energy, and spirit have been perfectly harmonized over the years with the help of the [Taiji Diagram].
Theoretically speaking, as long as Li Boyang is willing, he can take the final step of Refining Qi, Spirit Transformation at any time and officially enter the Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness Realm.
However, Li Boyang was unwilling to break through just like that.
Because he had clearly seen the possibility of transcending life and death, of immortality and indestructibility.
Therefore, Li Boyang used the [Taiji Diagram]'s power in reverse to suppress his own burgeoning bottleneck.
I underestimated the ingredients of the Immortality Herb.
"That's something that can't be replicated by mortal matter at all."
"Without the crucial Immortality Herb, my envisioned perfect version of the Elixir of Immortality simply cannot be refined."
This was the first time since Li Boyang was born that he had so desperately craved something.
It was precisely because she saw Li Boyang's desire that Xiluo, quite unusually, did not stop his dangerous behavior, but instead chose to help him take the risk.
"The elixirs needed by the Xuansu Shi mother and son also require some components of the Immortality Herb."
Upon hearing Li Boyang's words, Deception Rabbit immediately realized what was happening.
"You're going to find the Immortality Herb!?"
In this world today, there are only two places where the Immortality Herb may still exist.
One is the Kunlun Guixu, which Deception Rabbit witnessed firsthand, where the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor resided.
Ten thousand years ago, that place was the legendary Heavenly Emperor's Capital, the supreme place where all the gods gathered.
Various legends about the Heavenly Emperor's Capital are still widely circulated today.
The other is the Great Xia —the prosperous Xia kingdom protected by countless gods and great shamans.
The fifth Witch King, Wu Ling, was known for his murderous nature, but he also possessed the Dao of Life and Death.
He not only successfully resurrected Wu Xian, who was supposed to be dead, but also left behind the [Immortality Cauldron], a national treasure.
In terms of sheer power, the [Immortality Cauldron] is clearly not as strong as the other Nine Cauldrons.
It could be considered the only thing in the world related to the Elixir of Immortality.
Li Boyang felt that it was far more than just a "formula for Elixir of Immortality".
The problem now is that neither the Heavenly Emperor's Capital nor the [Immortality Cauldron] is easy to obtain.
Even with Li Boyang's current strength, he would have to take a great risk and there's no guarantee he would succeed.
"You've been out in the world for so many years, you've even seen the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor, so don't make such a fuss."
"The reason I'm telling you all this is so you know that even without your involvement, I would have gone to find the Immortality Herb sooner or later."
"The situation isn't as serious as Xiluo described at all. Don't believe that guy's lies."
Despite Li Boyang's words of comfort, Deception Rabbit did not take them entirely seriously.
The choice between slowly searching for the Immortality Herb and finding Immortality Herb in a short time.
The difficulty of these two tasks is completely incomparable.
Moreover, Deception Rabbit doesn't believe that anything in this world is a matter of course.
Li Boyang owes him nothing, so it would be perfectly reasonable for him not to save Xuansu Shi and her son.
"I'll go with you to find the Immortality Herb!"
A hint of determination flashed in her eyes Deception Rabbit spoke with such firmness.
"This is my business; if I'm going to take the risk, I have to do it myself."
After a brief moment of thought, Li Boyang did not actively refuse to Deception Rabbit.
Or rather, Li Boyang understood Deception Rabbit, and directly refusing him would be completely meaningless.
Given Deception Rabbit's personality, he likes to wander around even when there's nothing wrong with him, let alone something as important as this that involves himself.
Therefore, Li Boyang did the opposite and came up with a set of arguments that Deception Rabbit could not refuse.
"Xuansu Shi is about to give birth, are you really comfortable leaving her alone in such an unfamiliar place?"
"Besides, if we're going to find the Immortality Herb," there's actually someone in these Hundred Lands Mountain Range who's more suitable to come with me than you.
Li Boyang said with a smile as he gently tossed out the Heavenly Mandate Bone Plastron.
Li Boyang was never a reckless man; preparing several plans before doing anything was a habit of his.
Now that he has decided to search for the Immortality Herb, he naturally wants to maximize his chances of success.
