As a master alchemist among humans, Zou Bugui was indeed capable of refining many elixirs.

These elixirs not only involve improving cultivation levels, but also prolonging and extending life; healing elixirs are also a given.

He looked at the Tiger Strength Demon King, whose face was filled with despair, and finally shook his head.

"What? Can't be saved?" the Goat Strength Demon King asked anxiously.

"We Zou Bugui shook his head. "He's in a fatal injury, and recovery would require extraordinary skill, at least the Xuan Shen herb from Your Majesty, to have any chance of healing and recovering from his damage!"

The Goat Strength Demon King didn't understand Zou Bugui's theory, but he clearly heard the words "Xuan Shen" (玄参).

This is the most basic requirement.

This caused his fingers to tremble, pulling out several hairs from his goatee.

"Are there any other ways?" the Demon King Luli asked in a low voice.

"Your deer antler blood also has some blood-nourishing properties, which can make his Qi and Blood more vigorous, and this may be of great benefit," Zou Bugui said.

"I can cut it!"

The Demon King Luli trembled.

As Alchemist, he was well aware of the purity of his deer antler blood.

This demonic blood can even satisfy the needs of some demons to strengthen their bodies.

He used to be a member of the Nine Spirits Holy Land, but he ran away to the Xieluosi River Holy Land because he couldn't stand the probing of others.

Their trio may seem formidable, but just as the Goat Strength Demon King lacked a human shield, he too faced numerous dangers without protection.

It's not impossible that he could be killed and have his blood taken later; if he were to be raised as a blood slave, that would be even more likely.

As he whispered his Zou Bugui's words, the Demon King Luli secretly glanced around.

"Then let's collect more blood," Zou Bugui, raising an eyebrow. "I'll make a blood pill for Huli, but I can't guarantee he'll survive!"

Thank you!

The Demon King Luli nodded, then quickly ran towards the palace where the Three Demon Kings were located.

Clearly, the Demon King Luli was Zou Bugui.

As a skilled Alchemist who handles countless pills, Zou Bugui deduct most of the blood from the Demon King Luli.

Looking at the Demon King Luli who moved with incredible speed, and Zou Bugui with his eyes closed and head slightly lowered, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but glance at the Goat Strength Demon King as well.

"Demon King, your cloud-riding technique..."

"I don't have time to discuss cloud-riding techniques right now, I'm in a real hurry!"

Zhang Xuezhou had just tentatively asked the question when the anxious Goat Strength Demon King, scratching his head repeatedly, decisively refused.

It was Zou Bugui coughed several times to remind him that the Goat Strength Demon King straightened his attitude.

"This is something I did over two hundred years ago when I carried an old immortal on my back. He couldn't take my leaping and jumping anymore, so he bestowed upon me this cloud-riding technique," Goat Strength Demon King. "But later he still got tired of it and switched to a steady ox as his mount!"

"Is the Cloud-Soaring Technique being passed down to outsiders?" Zhang Xuezhou asked directly.

"As long as you can save my third brother, I don't mind spreading rumors about you!"

Despite the cough that reminded Zou Bugui, the Goat Strength Demon King still forced himself to make his request.

"That's difficult!"

Seeing Zhang Xuezhou seeking the art of leaping, Zou Bugui help but offer a reminder.

For Zou Bugui to mention the difficulty, Zou Bugui that even with his full strength, he would find it difficult to revive the Tiger Strength Demon King.

Unless it's a case of "leaving some benefits behind your back," it's difficult to truly obtain the benefits that are only given after the goal is achieved.

Such things are often laborious and time-consuming, ultimately resulting in both financial and emotional losses.

"Try it, it won't hurt!"

Zhang Xuezhou shook his head.

Alchemist have their own methods of saving Alchemist, but Technique Method also have their Technique Method of counteracting those situations.

Zou Bugui considered using elixirs to treat him, while Zhang Xuezhou considered using Technique Method.

He learned the latter half of the Supreme Purity True Technique from Li Guang. As long as he could forcefully enter the Consciousness Creation Realm, Zhang Xuezhou would have the corresponding delicate spellcasting ability.

Saving Tiger Strength Demon King in exchange for the Cloud Soaring Technique was only one of his purposes. Since it was rare to see such an injured person, Zhang Xuezhou also wanted to use Tiger Strength Demon King to practice his skills.

This will inevitably be a relatively long process of performing the ritual and treating the patient. However, just as he had performed the ritual on the Golden Toad Dharma King and eventually mastered the first three chapters of the Supreme Purity True Technique, Zhang Xuezhou hopes to achieve the same level of proficiency in his subsequent cultivation.

"I possess a healing technique, but it requires me to reach the Integration Realm," Zhang Xuezhou said. "Currently, I am at the top level of the True Spirit Realm. If everyone can lend a hand to help me advance my cultivation, I will be able to use this technique!"

"Why should I believe what you're saying!" the Goat Strength Demon King said, frowning.

"With this Daoist technique!"

Zhang Xuezhou reached out and cast a spell, and a dense white light fell, causing the flesh of the Tiger Strength Demon King, which was still covered in blood, to quickly scab over.

He used his Technique Method to stroke the Goat Strength Demon King could see it clearly.

"But my technique currently only treats external injuries; it can restore his flesh and blood, but it's difficult to heal internal wounds," Zhang Xuezhou said. "This requires me to further improve my cultivation and my Technique Method!"

"With this technique and the combined effects of the elixir, Tiger Strength Demon King might truly be saved!" Zou Bugui chimed in.

"It's difficult for you to help a cultivator reach the Divine Ability Realm, but helping them step into the Consciousness Creation Realm shouldn't be a problem, right?" Zhang Xuezhou said. "Quickly bring out any suitable heavenly materials and earthly treasures, so as not to delay the Tiger Strength Demon King's healing time!"

Zhang Xuezhou had heard about the wealth of these three demon kings from the Golden Toad Dharma King.

As the only demon alchemy master in the Sacred Land, Demon King Luli not only supplies relatively inexpensive or even low-priced pills to demons like the Ten Yin Holy Son, but charges other demons exorbitant fees.

While Zou Bugui approach to tasks might not attract much attention, the Demon King Luli's direct demand made everyone aware of his wealth.

Correspondingly, the wealth accumulated by these three demons over the years is an extremely impressive figure, making them among the wealthiest demons in the Xieluosi River Holy Land.

"His skill is far superior to mine!"

On the surface, Zhang Xuezhou appeared to have reached a deal with the Goat Strength Demon King regarding the Cloud-Soaring Technique, but secretly, Zhang Xuezhou had even higher demands.

This directly bound himself and the three demon kings into one entity, even forcibly pushing forward the cultivation that Tiger Strength Demon King had to undergo, making his own desired breakthrough in realm a necessary step.

"Think about it carefully. I'm not someone who's short of a few pennies. If your third brother weren't in such dire need, I would have been diligently honing my cultivation in the True Spirit Realm, striving for a smooth breakthrough. You can't understand human cultivation, so think about yourselves. If saving your third brother required some powerful demon to undergo a tribulation, do you see any powerful demon doing such a thing without proper preparation? My cultivation will eventually reach the Integration Realm, but will your third brother even live to see that day...?"

That's absolutely right!

The Goat Strength Demon King was eventually persuaded.

He even showed a hint of gratitude.

Zhang Xuezhou was right. If saving Tiger Strength Demon King required him to reach a higher level of cultivation and then undergo a heavenly tribulation, Goat Strength Demon King felt that he really couldn't do such a thing.

Having empathized with him, he felt that Zhang Xuezhou had made a great sacrifice to save the Tiger Strength Demon King.

"If you can save our third brother's life, you'll be our best friend from now on!"

The Goat Strength Demon King patted his chest and guaranteed it, almost to the point of swearing an oath to the heavens.
