Longevity Begins With The Birth Of A Daughter At An Old Age

Chapter 118: Illusory Thunder Silver Shark

The Illusory Thunder Silver Shark is an ancient aquatic beast with the thunder attribute. It has a large body and is completely silver-white in color. It possesses sharp teeth and moves at an extremely fast speed.

It naturally controls silver illusionary thunder and can directly attack the soul.

The pure-blooded Illusory Thunder Silver Shark is said to have the strength of the Nascent Soul stage when it reaches adulthood, making it one of the most terrifying hunters in the ocean.

When Xu Mu heard that Whale Luo Chen would give him a surprise, he realized that the other party might have the monster blood he needed.

He just didn't expect it to be the precious Illusory Thunder Silver Shark.

However, the other party did not directly trade with Xu Yiren, but instead announced it in front of everyone at the banquet.

The meaning behind this is thought-provoking.

It seems that it is not so simple to obtain the monster blood.

"Could it be that the leader is willing to give it up?"

Xu Mu picked up a cup of wine, his expression calm, as if he didn't care too much about whether he could buy the monster blood or not.

"Fellow Daoist is joking. It's just a drop of blood. The reason why I waited until now to mention it is just to give it to Fellow Daoist in person!"

Whale Luo Chen smiled and took out a crystal seal from his storage bag, holding it with his spiritual power and presenting it to Xu Mu.

Inside the seal was a drop of silver-white liquid emitting a faint spiritual light, resembling mercury with slight ripples.

"..."

Xu Mu was somewhat surprised.

He originally thought that the other party would make some demands, but he didn't expect it to be given to him so easily.

Only after he received the crystal seal and examined it did he realize why the other party was so generous.

Although this is a drop of monster blood, it is not pure and contains too many impurities, so it can only be considered as blood.

This situation may be due to problems with the other party's refining technique.

Or it could be that there was too little original blood, and only this much could be refined. If it continues to be refined, it may not even be able to maintain a drop.

This level of blood is completely unable to meet the requirements of the Twelve Shocking Awakening Technique.

It seemed like Whale Luo Chen had anticipated Xu Mu's thoughts.

He took out something else and presented it to Xu Mu.

It was a small section of human-sized leg bone, slightly whitish, with faint traces of silver light on it.

"The Illusory Thunder Silver Shark is a top-tier monster. I don't have the strength to hunt it. All the blood I obtained was extracted from this section of bone!"

Whale Luo Chen raised his cup and took a sip, smiling, "Fellow Daoist, do you want to know where this section of bone came from?"

Is this a bait?

Xu Mu, who was examining the bone, secretly thought.

But he really wanted to know where this section of bone came from.

If there were enough of these bones, he might be able to extract pure Illusory Thunder Silver Shark blood.

The purer the blood, the stronger the power.

Moreover, it was a monster that completely matched him.

It's not easy to find another one like this elsewhere.

So he spoke up, "I would like to hear the details!"

Whale Luo Chen stroked his white beard and said, "I obtained it by accident from a ruin. There were more than one Illusory Thunder Silver Shark skeletons inside. At that time, I didn't know what kind of monster it was. It was only after extracting the blood that I realized it was a rare Illusory Thunder Silver Shark."

"A ruin?!"

Upon hearing Whale Luo Chen's words, the others couldn't help but be shocked.

Because for them, a ruin is synonymous with treasure.

They were puzzled, not understanding why Whale Luo Chen would reveal this.

Discovering a treasure like this is something that should be kept secret, preferably to be enjoyed alone. Now suddenly telling them, isn't he afraid that someone might have ill intentions?

After all, the meaning behind a ruin is extraordinary, and there are many legends about ruins.

Many low-level cultivators have become legends because they obtained ruins and soared to the top.

"I know what you all are wondering. Since I've mentioned it, I naturally want to share it with everyone."

"......"

The crowd's eyes showed some disbelief, after all, who would be willing to offer such a good opportunity.

Seeing the doubts in everyone's eyes, Jing Luochen continued, "You all know my personality. I don't want to take any risks. I just want to live out my old age peacefully. Even if it's a relic, I don't care that much."

Jing Luochen smiled and shook his head, revealing a sense of desolation.

"And the reason I'm speaking up is not only because I don't care too much myself, but also because opening that relic requires the cooperation of several people!"

"This time, I'm taking the opportunity to gather everyone here and discuss entering the relic! Of course, if anyone is unwilling, I won't force them and they can leave at any time!"

From Jing Luochen's tone, it could be heard that he wasn't too concerned about this exploration. He simply felt that it would be a pity if he didn't go.

The crowd glanced at each other, and not a single person chose to leave.

One reason was that they had been with Jing Luochen for some years and felt that he genuinely had no interest in power struggles.

The other reason was that the relic was precious. If they gave up this opportunity, they would likely regret it for the rest of their lives.

Xu Mu remained silent and didn't say anything either.

He also wanted to witness the legendary relic, and the chance to encounter an ancient beast like the Phantom Thunder Silver Shark was rare. It would indeed be a pity to give up.

However, they still needed to proceed cautiously. If they encountered danger, they would run away immediately.

But with their strength, they shouldn't encounter any major dangers.

Seeing that no one wanted to leave, a smile appeared on Jing Luochen's face. He had already anticipated this situation.

After all, opportunities like this were rare. Even an old man like him, who was nearing the end of his life, didn't want to give up, let alone others.

The only one who still hesitated was Yang Wanshou.

He was even older than Jing Luochen and, to be honest, didn't want to take risks unless necessary.

But the temptation of a relic was too great.

"May I ask, Leader, where is this relic located? If it's too far away, I, Yang, won't go. My body can't handle it!" Yang Wanshou said with a bitter smile.

"Elder Yang, rest assured, this relic is not far away, it's nearby! I discovered it by chance during one of my sea explorations! Otherwise, I wouldn't have invited everyone to go together!" Jing Luochen laughed.

If it was too far away, several people leaving at the same time could cause problems for the sect. Jing Luochen couldn't possibly invite them to go in that case.

Hearing Jing Luochen's words, everyone's eyes brightened, except for Xu Mu, whose gaze flickered slightly.

If the relic wasn't too far away, exploring it wouldn't have any impact. And if they happened to gain something, it would be an unexpected surprise.

"I often hear that the Leader likes to collect resources from the sea. I didn't expect to have such luck. It seems that I should also go to the sea more often in the future!" Shen Gai said eagerly.

Although their sea area was relatively remote and had thin spiritual energy, it didn't mean that there were no treasures here.

Originally, they looked down on it, but now with Jing Luochen as an example, not only Shen Gai but also the others felt eager to explore the sea. Especially Zhang Tianluo, who had a sea clan bloodline, would find it much easier to move underwater than the others.

"If everyone has no objections, let's pick a time in the next few days to explore together, shall we?"

"Good!"

"I have no objections!"

"Haha! I never thought that even at my age, I would have the opportunity to enter a relic!"

Everyone's expressions were filled with excitement. It didn't seem like they were going on an adventure, but rather on an outing.

Even Wang Yinxian, who was usually silent, spoke a few words.

To be honest, this kind of opportunity was indeed rare.

Xu Mu didn't act differently from the others and showed a similar mood.

After having their fill of food and drink, Xu Yiren and Shen Gai were left behind by Jing Luochen to discuss the sect's affairs.

The other four each went back to prepare.

The agreed time for exploring the relic was five days later.

...

"Could this be too coincidental?"

Back on Misty Island, Xu Mu held the crystal containing the sealed blood essence of the Phantom Thunder Silver Shark in his hand, silently pondering.

Although these people didn't pose a threat to him, he didn't want to be led around by the nose.

After thinking for a long time, he changed his appearance and left Misty Island once again.

Five days later, the seven Foundation Building cultivators of the Whale Sea Sect, including Xu Mu, gathered again. Under Jing Luochen's leadership, they each controlled their flying treasures and set off towards the location of the relic.
