Chapter 2279: Elixir of Life 🍃

Lu Xun bitterly smiled and said, “Yes, it’s the Black Dragon’s call. I was very excited at first, but who knew that halfway through the transaction, Tian Hao Yaowang suddenly fainted, and no matter how we called, he wouldn’t wake up.”

“I even used some healing techniques, and even fed him some ninth-grade healing elixirs, but he showed no signs of recovery at all. It’s driving me crazy,” Lu Xun said anxiously. Tian Hao Yaowang was also his friend, and naturally, he did not want to see anything happen to him.

“Not even a ninth-grade healing elixir can cure him?”

The gazes of the crowd turned serious. This was no small matter. It must be noted that Lu Xun was also an experienced ninth-grade alchemist. Although he had been stuck at the initial stage of ninth-grade due to talent reasons, he was quite famous in the Alchemy Pavilion.

Although Tian Hao Yaowang was known as the King of Medicine, that title had been passed down from his younger days when he was exceptionally famous. In reality, Tian Hao Yaowang was also a ninth-grade alchemist. Such a strong individual would not faint so easily.

At this moment, those alchemists who had stepped forward to investigate also stood up, their expressions heavy, shaking their heads and saying, “Strange, there’s nothing unusual about Tian Hao Yaowang, nor any injuries. How could he suddenly faint?”

“Could it be poisoning?” one alchemist interjected.

“Poisoning? Not likely. We’ve checked; there are no signs of poisoning in his body,” someone beside him replied.

These experienced alchemists naturally knew how to diagnose illnesses. Most of them could tell at a glance whether someone was poisoned. Since so many people couldn’t figure it out, it shouldn’t be the case.

“I’ll take another look,” said the elder who had previously shouted for everyone to step back.

“Hopefully Elder Wu Zhen can find something,” the crowd murmured. This elder with gray hair was a core elder of the Alchemy Pavilion, a peak mid-stage ninth-grade alchemist, and among those present, he was one of the highest in status. When he spoke, naturally, no one would oppose him.

However, after Elder Wu stepped forward and carefully observed for a long while, his brows furrowed deeply.

“Pale lips, uneven breathing, extremely weak, sagging skin, and a vacant gaze…” After watching for a while, Elder Wu couldn’t help but be shocked. “These are all signs of someone reaching the end of their lifespan.”

Lifespan is determined by fate. If one truly reaches the end, even the most powerful alchemist cannot reverse fate and extend life.

Unless they break through again.

“Tian Hao Yaowang is a mid-stage Martial God, and a ninth-grade Medicine Emperor. Although he is nearly two hundred years old this year, I have never heard of him suffering any serious injuries. It shouldn’t be that he has reached the end of his lifespan, right?” someone expressed their doubts.

When martial artists break through to Martial God, their normal lifespan can soar to around three hundred years. Two hundred years is considered very old in the eyes of ordinary people, but at the level of Martial God, it is nothing.

The most crucial point is that Tian Hao Yaowang is also a Medicine Emperor. Alchemists are the ones who understand body cultivation the most. Moreover, there have been no reports of Tian Hao Yaowang having suffered any severe injuries, making the idea of him reaching the end of his lifespan hard to believe.

“Then what is going on?” The crowd was puzzled and felt it was extremely tricky.

This group of alchemists couldn’t even identify the cause of Tian Hao Yaowang’s condition, and if word got out, it would likely severely impact the reputation of the Alchemy Pavilion.

“Let’s try giving him a life-prolonging elixir first.”

The life-prolonging elixir is a special ninth-grade elixir made from longevity leaves. It can extend the lifespan of martial artists, generally adding about ten years to a martial artist's life, making it an extremely miraculous elixir.
