Chapter 74: The Extremely Depressed Xiao Hei
"Master, are you a god-level alchemist? Is the thing you gave me to eat the legendary divine elixir?" Xiao Hei asked two questions in a row as soon as he landed on Xiao Liuxing's shoulder, and then stared at him with anxious eyes. This made Xiao Liuxing stunned for a moment. Of course, what Xiao Hei said was also standard beast language.
"The Alchemist" - he already knew what it meant from Laurie, and what it represented. He was currently refining medicine and practicing alchemy, so being called an alchemist wasn't excessive at all. Moreover, the Xuan Yang Dan was the best elixir he had refined up to now, and it was even a Zi Xuan Yang Dan, known as a divine elixir - not one bit exaggerated. So after a slight moment of astonishment, he naturally nodded his head in agreement.
"Really, master, that's great, really great! Master, do you have any more of this divine pill?" Xiao Hei started to get a bit excited, but the sentence after that showed he was very tense. "What are you asking for? You've already eaten one and haven't fully absorbed it, eating another would be a waste." Xiaoliu Xing heard his words and also asked a strange question.
"That's all? Master, you misunderstood me. I didn't want to eat it myself, but I wanted to give it to my parents. They've been stuck on the Sacred Stair for thousands of years." Little Hei said with a pitiful tone to Little Liuxing, this bold and generous bird made such an expression, which was really hard for him to do, especially when he used polite language at the end, making Little Chun Tian burst out laughing. The usually calm Little Hei's face turned red with embarrassment.
He had just been promoted to the Divine Rank and immediately thought of his parents, which shows that he is extremely kind-hearted. Xiaoliu Xing was very impressed with Xiao Hei's performance. There were still ten Xuan Yang Dan left, three yellow ones, two golden ones, and three purple ones. Giving him two wouldn't be a problem.
Both he and Xiao Chun Tian were already in the Yuan Ying period, and the medicinal herbs in this world were extremely rich and of high quality. His storage ring currently contained materials for several types of dan medicines, but he had never had the time to refine them. If he did, their effects would definitely not be inferior to those of the Xuan Yang Dan. Therefore, after Xiao Hei finished speaking, Xiao Liu Xing directly moved his hand, and two purple Xuan Yang Dans appeared before Xiao Hei's eyes.
Smelling the strong fragrance emitted by the Dan medicine, looking at the unforgettable purple color, Xiao Hei's heart was filled with excitement. Originally, he thought that Xiao Liu Xing would refuse, after all, this kind of divine medicine is precious and not easily available. He just asked casually, with a try-and-see attitude.
He didn't expect his master not only had them, but also gave him two at once! "Too powerful, too good!" Xiao Hei thought excitedly as he flapped his wings, and the two Xuan Yang Dan that had just appeared in front of him disappeared instantly, with a speed as fast as lightning, as if he was afraid that Xiao Liu Xing would regret it. As a magical beast born at the sacred level, having its own independent space was nothing unusual, so neither Xiao Liu Xing nor Xiao Chun Tian found it strange.
"Spring, how's Xiao Bai doing now?" Looking at the smug little Hei, Xiaoliu Xing turned to ask Xiaochun Tian, while asking, her body floated in mid-air from a seated position, slowly straightening her legs and standing on the ground.
She closed her eyes, and after a moment of sensing, Little Spring said happily: "It's almost time, hehe." Little Stream hummed in response, then began to wait, using his spiritual sense to examine the surrounding plants. After all, Little Stream wasn't someone who liked to waste time.
After more than twenty minutes, Xiaoliu Xing noticed that Xiao Chun Tian's face suddenly showed a brilliant smile while floating in the air, and then a white light appeared about 20 meters away from her. Immediately afterwards, the extremely white figure of Xiao Bai appeared before everyone's eyes.
Also a second-tier deity, as soon as he appeared, Xiaoliu saw through his strength. Similar to Xiaohei. But he absorbed less elixir than Xiaohei, about 4,800 years! Other energies were also scattered around his body. He didn't fly out like Xiaohei to feel the joy of power boost when he just came out.
But stood quietly in the air, looking at its owner - Little Spring with grateful eyes. Unlike Xiao Hei's black feathers that made people feel cold, Xiao Bai's white fur gave people a sense of elegance and purity, making them feel warm from the bottom of their hearts. The two were complete opposites, if Xiao Hei was like a rogue, then Xiao Bai was an aristocrat with noble qualities.
Because Xiao Bai is standing now, without spreading his wings, Xiao Liuxing doesn't know how much his body has changed after this upgrade, but his height has increased by a lot, originally having 1.8 meters, nearly 2 meters of height, now he has more than 2 meters, and the sharp angle on his head also grew longer by more than double, having more than 30 centimeters! Moreover, Xiao Liuxing also checked and found that his magic core also doubled in size, and became a rounded spherical shape, no longer uneven.
"Brother, Xiao Bai also asked me if there's still any dan medicine left. He wants to help his parents too." Xia Chun Tian said while gently stroking the soft white fur of Xiao Bai, who had transformed into a small pony-sized creature about her own height. "It seems that both magical creatures we obtained this time are quite good," Xiao Liu Xing thought to himself.
No nonsense, he waved his hand and threw the last purple Xuan Yang pill in front of Xiao Bai, saying: "You asked too late, originally there were three left, but Xiao Hei took two away earlier, now only one is left."
When Xiaobai heard Xiaoliuxing's words, he was stunned at first, then glared at Xiaohei with anger, "This guy always makes trouble for himself. Why didn't he come out a little earlier? That way, it would have been him who was short one grain." Xiaobai thought to himself in frustration. He wasn't surprised that Xiaoliuxing could speak beast language because he had already been shocked when Xiaochuntian used beast language to communicate with him telepathically just now.
Xiao Hei naturally noticed Xiao Bai's depressed expression. Originally, he had just seen Xiao Bai come out and thought he had the same strength as him, but he still felt unhappy. He was planning to wait for Xiao Bai to come out and find an opportunity to secretly teach Xiao Bai a lesson, to avenge his past grievances of being beaten by Xiao Bai. But now that his plan has been ruined, seeing Xiao Bai's depressed expression made him happy again.
"Serves you right, who made you come out late? You're going to die from anger, you little white face!" Xiao Hei thought to himself with a sense of satisfaction, the more he thought about it, the more satisfied he became, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing. Not only that, but while laughing, he took out the two Xuan Yang Dan pills that Xiao Liu Xing had just given him and showed them off in front of Xiao Bai, with a sly and cunning look on his face. "Hehehe" This caused Xiao Chun Tian to erupt into a fit of laughter.
"Even more childish than this kid!" Looking at Xiao Hei's silly behavior, Xiaoliu gave him a big white eye. Then to Xiao Bai who was still in a daze, "The purple Xuan Yang Dan is gone, but there are two golden ones left. One purple Xuan Yang Dan can increase energy by 7,000 years, and one golden Xuan Yang Dan can increase energy by about 3,000 years. Of course, you have another choice, which is to wait for a while longer until I refine other elixirs. Which one do you want to choose?"
The originally somewhat depressed Xiao Bai, after hearing Xiao Liu Xing's words, immediately became happy and chose the former without hesitation. Xiao Bai was extremely shocked in his heart, he was completely frightened by the 3000-year number that Xiao Liu Xing said, from birth to now, he is not even 2000 years old yet, did not expect that he would suddenly take a pill that can increase 7000 years of energy! This is truly a divine medicine, only gods can make such a medicine!
No wonder he improved so much in one go. So, without hesitation, he chose the former. 6000 years of energy, that's already a legendary elixir, and he didn't dare to hope for anything else. Moreover, he now believed more in what he had obtained, and he didn't dare to be too optimistic about the future. Xiao Liuxing naturally wouldn't say anything, directly throwing the remaining two golden Huanyang Dans at him. This way, he only had three yellow Huanyang Dans left in his hand.
After hearing what Little Meteor said to Little White, Xiao Hei felt shocked and regretful in his heart. The divine medicine was truly a divine medicine! At that time, he didn't think about anything and swallowed it in one gulp, without even tasting its flavor! What a great regret this is! Now Xiao Hei feels like committing suicide.
Although he still had two in his hand, although he wanted to take one out and taste it again, reason told him that this was his parents' hope. He could only hold back. The greatest pain in life is when you have a delicious dish in front of you but can't eat it! "If heaven gives me another chance, I'll definitely bite into it a hundred times, no, ten thousand times, before finishing it!" Xiao Hei vowed to himself. Of course, this opportunity was impossible, at least for now.
Xiao Liuxing and Xiao Chuntian didn't know about Xiao Hei's current mood, so they both found it strange that he would suddenly reveal such a painful and distressed expression, as if he had used the 50 million yuan lottery ticket to wipe his butt and then flushed it down the toilet. Only Xiaobai, who had fought with him for hundreds of years and knew his temperament like the back of her hand, could see that he was secretly laughing hysterically in his heart.
"Alright, you two have made significant progress since last time. Now, let's have another match and see what your true abilities are like. You two come at me together." Xiao Liu Xing said calmly to Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei, who had different expressions on their faces. Since his duel with Lao Rui Si, he hadn't fought against any strong opponents of the Divine or even Sacred ranks. So, he had been looking forward to this battle in his heart for a long time and wouldn't let the opportunity slip away.
After hearing Xiao Liuxing's words, both Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei were moved in their hearts. The several years of hibernation had caused the strength of the two beasts to leap by two levels, giving them a lot more confidence. Moreover, they also needed this battle to feel the energy within their bodies and get familiar with this strange realm.
As for Xiaoliuzi's last sentence, they didn't think much about it in their hearts. They originally knew that Xiaoliuzi was stronger than them. If they still insisted on one-on-one, wouldn't that be masochistic? They weren't that stupid.
Two old foes who had been fighting for hundreds of years looked at each other, nodded in perfect tacit understanding, and gladly accepted the little meteor's pretty good idea.
