In the clear lake water, a graceful figure was swimming, her movements light and elegant. Her hands parted the water, like a fish leaping out, incredibly beautiful.
The figure lay in the lake, drifting with the waves, enjoying this moment of leisure.
On the shore, Lu Yang looked helpless, “Fairy, can you not swim here?”
“You’re going to control my swimming too? I’ll splash you.” The immortal fairy pouted, her hands came together, and a column of water shot out from between her fingers towards Lu Yang, who easily dodged it.
“I can’t control your swimming, but please don’t swim in my spiritual space. It makes me feel like my head is full of water.” Lu Yang said helplessly. He didn’t know what was going on. Ever since the fairy returned, she had been particularly fond of playing with water, even creating a lake in his spiritual space.
“Go away, go practice, don’t bother me.” The immortal fairy kicked Lu Yang out of the spiritual space, as if she was the master here.
Lu Yang was indeed in the process of training. He was currently being besieged by three Golden Elixir stage wild boars, while Meng Jingzhou and the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain were watching from a tree.
The wild boars charged recklessly, their strength immense. Lu Yang tried to avoid their frontal assault and attack from the side, but the three wild boars cooperated seamlessly, not giving Lu Yang a chance to attack from the side.
Boom——
Lu Yang was hit squarely by one of the wild boars, sending him flying far away, dust and smoke billowing.
“Go wild boar, kill him!” Meng Jingzhou shouted gleefully from the side.
“Is Young Master Lu alright? I see that one of the wild boars is at the mid-Golden Elixir stage, and the other two are at the peak of the early Golden Elixir stage?” The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain were more conscientious, concerned about Lu Yang’s safety.
“It’s fine, it’s fine. If he can’t beat them, he doesn’t deserve to be the number one in our generation. I might as well take his place.” Meng Jingzhou waved his hand dismissively.
Last time, it was Lu Yang who kicked him down from the tree to fight. This time, it was his turn to do the same.
The three wild boars wanted to take advantage of their victory, but when the smoke cleared, there was no sign of Lu Yang.
Suddenly, the wild boars became alert and tried to dodge, but it was too late. A cold light burst from the ground, and a three-foot-long sword pierced the belly of one of the wild boars.
The wild boar tried to resist, but Lu Yang flicked his wrist, changed his sword technique, and shouted, “Cut.”
He split the wild boar in half directly.
With one sword, the mid-Golden Elixir stage beast was killed.
After training in the dense forest for several days, Lu Yang had fought with more than a dozen different Golden Elixir stage beasts.
His biggest feeling was that fighting with the beasts was completely different from fighting with his fellow disciples in the Seek Tao Sect — the Golden Elixir stage beasts in the outside world were so easy to defeat.
In the future, if he wanted to boost his confidence, he should not look for it in the Seek Tao Sect, but should come out and find it.
“I’ve told you, you have the ability to challenge those above your level. It’s just that the opponents you’ve met before were too abnormal!” The immortal fairy defended herself in the spiritual space.
When she first resurrected, she wanted to show off her skills using Lu Yang’s body, to show him what it meant to challenge those above his level.
Who would have thought that the people in the Seek Tao Sect were all so outrageous? Even in the ancient times when geniuses were abundant, they could rank among the top. She was completely unable to defeat them.
Fortunately, she later relied on her superior wisdom to challenge and defeat a Divine Transformation stage opponent using Lu Yang’s body, thus restoring her reputation.
Seeing their leader dead, the other two wild boars hurriedly fled.
“Chase, we can’t let them escape!” Lu Yang reminded Meng Jingzhou.
“I know, do you need to say more?” Meng Jingzhou jumped down from the tree and divided the work with Lu Yang, each chasing a wild boar.
These three wild boars were beasts that roamed around, attacking humans. They didn’t know how many human cultivators had been killed by them. Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou would definitely not let them go.
The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain waited in place. After a few minutes, they heard the sound of fighting not far away. The sound came quickly and ended quickly.
By the time the five of them came to their senses, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had each dragged back a wild boar.
“Tonight’s dinner is settled.”
……
Night fell, and the Three Flavors True Fire rose, illuminating the faces of the seven people. A wild boar was roasting slowly on the fire, sizzling and dripping oil. The oil droplets fell on the True Fire, causing the flames to leap high.
“I never thought we would have the chance to eat food roasted with True Fire in our lifetime. We owe it all to Young Master Lu.” The Five Heroes sighed. They didn’t expect that Lu Yang, despite his young age, had mastered a True Fire.
While Lu Yang was roasting the boar, the Five Heroes were dissecting the other two wild boars.
The beast cores, leather, tusks, and even the bones were all valuable items that could be sold for a good price at the Demon Suppression Pass.
The beast cores could be used as the main ingredient for pill refining, the leather could be used to refine magical tools, the tusks could be used as status symbols, and the bones could be used to make bone soup.
“Look, this wild boar has a twin Golden Elixir!” One of the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain exclaimed.
“What? There’s such a thing?” The leader with the hooked nose immediately went over to check the situation upon hearing this.
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou also became interested and put down their work.
They had only seen twin Golden Elixirs in the Seek Tao Sect, and had never heard of such a phenomenon outside the sect.
There were two Golden Elixirs on the ground, one golden and the other pitch black, as if representing two extremes, one bright and one dark, with the flavor of “Tao” in them.
The more Lu Yang pondered, the more he felt that these two Golden Elixirs were extraordinary, containing infinite truths.
What a good thing.
“I never thought I would be able to defeat a beast with a twin Golden Elixir one day.” Lu Yang marveled at his own growth.
Meng Jingzhou also found it amazing. He had never heard of anyone’s Golden Elixir being black.
Golden Elixirs were divided into nine grades, with the first grade being the brightest and golden, and the ninth grade being the dimmest, but still golden.
This wild boar, despite its unimpressive appearance, was able to form a black Golden Elixir. Did it have ancient bloodlines, or had it had some kind of adventure?
“This wild boar is a descendant of the ancient Mountain-Carrying Pig. It can carry two mountains on its shoulders. As far as I know, the Mountain-Carrying Pig is all guts and no brains, so it doesn’t have a high status among the beasts.” The leader with the hooked nose pondered. Having lived in the dense forest for a long time, he was very knowledgeable about beasts.”Could it be a result of some extraordinary encounter?”
Meng Jingzhou speculated, “I’ve heard that there’s a rare treasure in the dense forest, known as the Twin Lotus. The lotus seeds, one light and one dark, can reverse Yin and Yang and alter one’s constitution when consumed.”
“Could it be that this wild boar accidentally found the Twin Lotus before its death, and after consuming it, produced these two Golden Elixirs, one black and one white?”
The hawk-nosed leader nodded, agreeing with Meng Jingzhou’s guess, “If that’s the case, this wild boar is indeed lucky. How many people come to the dense forest with the sole purpose of finding the Twin Lotus, only to return empty-handed, while this wild boar ate it!”
Everyone’s hearts were aflame. Were there any Twin Lotuses left? Could they find clues from this wild boar demon’s body, follow the vine to the melon, and locate the Twin Lotus?
“Immortal, do you have any thoughts? Can you discern the origin of these two Twin Golden Elixirs?” Lu Yang quietly asked the Immortal.
“Twin Golden Elixirs? Isn’t the black one a gallstone?”
The Immortal was very puzzled. Wasn’t it because this mountain-carrying pig was full of gall, constantly secreting bile, and the accumulated bile solidified into a gallstone?
She had seen this situation many times in ancient times.
What were these people babbling about for so long?
Where did the Twin Golden Elixirs come from?
Lu Yang: “……”
