Chapter 40: Mysterious Elixir

  You walked all the way, and in your heart, you really felt a lot of regret. Your elder sister-in-law, Guan Qinghan, was only 21 years old, at the best age of her life, and such a stunning beauty, yet she willingly stayed at home as a widow, a lonely and childless woman! If this were to happen in a past life, it would be simply unthinkable!

  But here it is so natural and inevitable, a great sorrow indeed.

  What a waste of resources! If only I could... Ah!? Lord Evil's mind suddenly popped up with this idea, and he was shocked: This doesn't seem like his usual style of speaking and acting. He might sympathize, but how could he have such a despicable thought? This is not something he would normally think of! Could it be...

  Detestable Jun Mo Xie! All souls have scattered, yet there's still such a lingering influence! Jun Mo Xie cursed in his heart.

  He hastily walked into the room, not even having time to respond to Xiao Luoli's greeting, and sat down with a frown, thinking about his every move since crossing over. Although he had occasionally been young and reckless in his previous life, it was basically just an act to get close to his target.

  Jun Mo Xie's personality had always been cold and arrogant, even bordering on ruthless and sometimes could be said to be cold-blooded. However, after crossing over, he discovered that his personality had changed so much without him realizing it. Indeed, as the young master Jun Mo Xie, this behavior was still somewhat acceptable and was the best cover. But in his heart, how did he really feel? Only he himself knew!

  Absolutely cannot let Jun Moxie's original personality take over this body! But still have to use this personality as a protective color!

  Maintain my heart, adapt to external things, but deep down inside, I am still me - Xie Jun, the evil lord!

  The evil king's eyes shot out a sharp light, the heavens are unjust, treating all things as straw dogs, the evil king is ruthless, trampling other worlds underfoot!

  Having made up his mind, he suddenly felt a sense of relief all over his body. He immediately thought of something else and took out the package that had been picked up by chance from his pocket, and at once his heart moved.

  This package contains something that is worth sacrificing the names of twenty top-notch experts to obtain, although I don't know who the mastermind behind the scenes is, but Jun Xie knows that Tang's things are generally not something that anyone would dare to take charge of. And if it weren't for the fact that it's an extraordinary good thing, no one would have taken such a great risk to do this!

  Thinking about it this way, Jun Ye's curiosity was piqued, and he thought that he would just return it to the Tang family as before, but now he had a desire to open it and take a look.

  Thinking is doing, pointing directly to the heart, this is the style of a villain! The villain stretched out his hand and with a "hiss" sound, he tore open the package, inside was a small, square, flat wooden box. The wooden box emitted a faint fragrance, on its surface were many delicate golden patterns; this wood, was actually top-grade gold-threaded sandalwood!

  And what's more, a whole piece of golden sandalwood was carved out to make this box! This wooden box alone is already worth a fortune!

  As soon as the wooden box was opened, a cold air burst out. Inside the box, there was another snow-white jade box made of top-quality cold jade, which felt icy to the touch.

  Just this piece of cold jade is enough to overturn a city!

  You're actually inhaling cold air! What's so important about this thing that it needs to be stored in such a precious jade box?!

  Carefully opening the jade box, inside was a round object wrapped in a layer of colorful beast skin, emitting an unusual glow. If you didn't know any better, you wouldn't think it's anything strange. But if someone who knew what they were looking at saw this, they would probably be shocked on the spot: This is the fur of a 9th-level Mystic Beast! It's almost as valuable as the Supreme Divine Artifact! Just one of these items - the golden silk sandalwood box, the top-grade cold jade, or the 9th-level Mystic Beast skin - would be worth a fortune that could buy a city.

  But these three things were just external packaging!

  Jun Xie held the wrapped animal skin in his hand, inside seemed to be a round table tennis ball-sized thing, when he opened it, Jun Xie couldn't help but feel greatly disappointed.

  A dark red, almost blackish strange object, with a texture similar to stone but not stone, similar to jade but not jade. When pinched hard, it seems to have some slight elasticity. Just looking at the appearance of this thing, it is indeed ordinary and unremarkable!

  Suddenly, a wicked thought flashed through his mind, and a gleam of light flashed in his brain, and he blurted out: "Xuandan?!!"

  Although he had never seen the specific appearance of Xuan Dan, Jun Xie knew that this was a good thing. Only third-level or higher Xuan beasts could condense Xuan Dan in their bodies. This Xuan Dan, with the Tang family's power and strength, was actually treasured like a precious gem, which made others want to spy on it even if they had to pat a tiger on the head to catch flies. It shouldn't be something simple, at least it should be seventh level or higher! Maybe even higher!

  "You may not know, but this Xuan Dan was obtained by Tang Wanjun, the old master of the Tang family, at a great cost. It is the Xuan Dan of the 9th-level peak Xuan beast, Golden Winged Tiger, which contains an extremely large amount of energy. For low-level Xuan practitioners, it is almost useless because they cannot trigger its power; but when Xuan Qi cultivation reaches the Earth level or above, and with specific conditions to activate it, then one can absorb the enormous power contained within the Xuan Dan for their own use! As for how much one can absorb, that depends on individual talent."

  However, when the cultivation of Xuan Qi reaches the realm of Di Xuan, every step forward becomes increasingly difficult. Yet, this Xuan Dan can directly elevate a cultivator from the initial stage of Di Xuan to the realm of Tian Xuan! For Xuan Qi cultivators, this is essentially a heaven-defying treasure!

  It was mentioned earlier that even killing an eighth-level Xuan beast is extremely difficult, let alone killing a ninth-level peak Xuan beast to obtain the Xuan Dan. In normal circumstances, this is simply impossible! A Supreme God Xuan expert can defeat a ninth-level Xuan beast, but if it comes to killing it, even two Supreme God Xuan experts working together may not be able to do so! The power and speed of a ninth-level Xuan beast are truly terrifying! If you can't beat it and want to escape, no one can stop you!

  What's more, it's a Golden Winged Tiger, this kind of mysterious beast that has the ability to fly? It's not even worth thinking about.

  Tang Wanli also inadvertently discovered a seriously injured Zun Xuan strongman back then, and found that the person had this Xuan Dan on his body. He paid with dozens of Yu Pin Jin Pin and several Di Xuan high-ranking lives to obtain this Xuan Dan.

  Let's not discuss how that supreme god Xuanqiang got it, but if we say that this Xuantan is the only thing in the world, although it's an exaggeration, it can be said with certainty that there are no more than three of them in the world!

  Li You Ran was eager to get the Xuan Dan, and he had a very important use for it. However, he never thought that since receiving the news several years ago, he would start making careful plans, buying off people in the Tang household, arranging for insiders to go in, and painstakingly gathering information, until three months ago when he finally found out where the thing was hidden. But because Old Man Tang rarely left his house, and had four top-notch masters guarding him, he never had an opportunity.

  This time, he finally got a great opportunity. Old Master Tang went out and took three of the top masters with him! Moreover, under the auspicious timing of an exceptionally heavy rainstorm, everything was in place, inside and outside working together, sending out top-notch experts to lure away the only remaining top master of the Tang Manor, then quietly sneaking in twenty more people, finally succeeding through internal and external coordination, but at the cost of twenty lives!

  Up until now everything has been very successful, and with a mere twenty lives lost, being able to obtain this Xuan Dan is undoubtedly an extremely good deal!

  Unfortunately, however, just at the moment of success, he encountered Jun Xie...

  Years of planning, thousands of designs and countless considerations, all turned into a futile attempt like trying to scoop the moon out of water!

  Made wedding dress for others!

  It can be imagined how depressed Li You Ran's heart is now!
