Chapter 220: Elixir of Immortality, the Truth of the Ruins
“Immortal?”

When old man Miejue heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then sneered.

“The so-called immortality is nothing but a curse.”

“curse?”

This was the first time Xiao Ying had heard of this thing.

“yes.”

The old man Extinct slowly moved his skeletal body and turned his back to Xiao Ying.

“Before that, why not listen to my story? It’s been a while since anyone has chatted with me.”

Xiao Ying nodded and did not refuse.

“This can’t really be considered a story. To be more precise, it’s an experience I had a few years ago.” Old Man Miejue sat on the throne somewhat dejectedly, stroking the throne while saying:
“When I was your age, my strength was only at the level of a super-class mage, and my talent was mediocre, so I was destined to be unknown.

But I just don’t believe it, I won’t bow to fate! “

“So I kept practicing, and worked hard towards the forbidden spell with an unwilling determination.”

“Stop, stop, stop! Get to the point.”

He felt that if he continued to listen to Old Man Miejue like this, it would probably take ten days or half a month to finish.

“.”

“Finally, I have mastered the forbidden spell, using poison as the path.” The old man Miejue said slowly: “But the forbidden spell is just a new starting point. In addition to the great increase in cultivation, the life span of a person can only be a short hundred years.”

“My luck wasn’t as good as others. When I broke through the forbidden spell, half of my neck was already covered in dirt.”

“You can say that I have been on the path of cultivation my entire life.”

As he spoke of this, the old man’s tone became more and more excited.

“It was then that I realized that the Forbidden Spell Master was not omnipotent. He was also a human being, and as long as he was human, he would die one day.”

“Death is something most people cannot face, especially forbidden spell mages. They have finally climbed to such a high position, but before they can enjoy themselves for a few years, they have to face death.”

“How unwilling I was at that time!”

“So I made a decision that went against common sense!”

“That is the way to seek eternal life.”

“???”

It was fine at the beginning, why did it change so suddenly at the end?

“So you succeeded and are still alive today.” Xiao Ying said.

Old Man Miejue shook his head and sighed: “In a sense, yes.”

“I practice poison. What I am best at is not fighting but scientific research and brewing potions. In order to seek this illusory method of immortality, I have traveled to countless places and experienced countless life and death situations.”

“Fortunately, God saw my perseverance. Just when I was about to give up, in a place called Kunlun, which I remember very clearly,

The surrounding environment was extremely harsh, with clouds and fog everywhere.

I collected a spiritual medicine with extremely strong vitality there, and used this medicine as a guide. Just before death, I prepared a potion and drank the medicine myself. “

“That’s crazy enough.”

Xiao Ying’s mouth twitched.

Kunlun Mountains.

He had never been to this place. How strong the creatures living there were was unknown to Xiao Ying, let alone the whole world. It was said that there lived a being as powerful as the emperor of the roof. Moreover, Kunlun Mountain was very close to human cities, so even the forbidden spell masters did not dare to go deep into it.

They were afraid that the emperor inside would go berserk and destroy the city.

Fortunately, the emperors living there are giving face to them humans. After so many years, they remain motionless and do not invade each other. Otherwise, the emperors in Kunlun Mountains would go berserk, no less than those emperors of the Ocean Empire.

“If you don’t go crazy, how can you see the sun tomorrow?” said the old man Miejue undeniably.

“Since you have eternal life, how come you have become such a ghost?” Xiao Ying asked puzzledly.

He turned into a skeleton, neither human nor ghost, which was probably more painful than death. Anyway, if it were him, he would just die. It was impossible for him to survive in the human area in this state.
Once discovered, they will definitely be treated as heretics and used as specimens for research in no time.

“Hey”

“Have you heard of the curse?” Old Man Extinct sighed.

“Curse?” Xiao Ying was a little confused, “You were cursed?”

Whose curse is so powerful? Even a curse mage of forbidden spells might not be able to do it.
“I suspect that the elixir is cursed!” said old man Miejue very seriously.

“Because that spiritual medicine has been growing deep in the Kunlun Mountains since its birth. The sun never shines in that area from morning to night and it is completely shrouded in smog.”

“If humans absorb it, they will suffer backlash.

As the saying goes, everything turns to its opposite when it reaches its extreme. So from that day on, my body began to slowly suffer the backlash of the elixir and began to change. In less than a few days, I became like this. “

“.”

Is the relationship still like this?

Xiao Ying didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but in a sense, this could be considered as Old Man Miejue’s dream coming true.

“We’ve been talking for so long that I forgot to ask where you are from. How is my hometown these days?” asked the old man Miejue.

He always had an indescribable feeling when looking at Xiao Ying.

Are all the wizards of this era so talented? A semi-forbidden spell wizard who is less than thirty years old, with mental strength at the ninth level and the ability to control several emperor-level creatures.

You have to know that it spent its entire life researching the Crown of Extinction and finally caught the corpse of an emperor-level creature, so it was able to control an emperor, and the emperor’s intelligence was not yet perfect.
“China.” Xiao Ying said.

“That’s it”

The old man Miejue was thoughtful, “Huaguo, the food there is very good. It is indeed a beautiful country.”

“Which country are you from? Maybe I’ve been there.” Xiao Ying asked casually.

“I can’t remember clearly. I only know that my hometown is beautiful, but also very messy,” said the old man Miejue.

“.”

So it’s useless to ask.

“Then how did you get here, and how much do you know about the origin of this place?” Xiao Ying didn’t beat around the bush anymore. He had asked almost all the questions he needed to ask, so he immediately got straight to the point.

Hearing this, the old man Miejue paused for a moment, then slowly spoke again:
“This place has existed for a long time. It already existed when I came here. As for why I came here, it was probably the same as you, for the sake of seeking excitement.”

“???”

“Haha, just kidding.”

Soon, the old man changed his tone and became extremely serious.
“This place is a puzzle, but it’s also a trap.”

“Luckily you met me, otherwise you would have stayed here forever.”
