The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

Chapter 2998 Mountain Treasure
The three ancient figures were filled with excitement as they looked at the Fountain of Youth before them.

They stepped forward, each took a sip, and immediately felt refreshed, as if their entire bodies had been elevated.

And the vitality they cherished most actually flourished at that moment.

"The Fountain of Youth, the real Fountain of Youth, hahaha..."

For the elderly who are nearing the end of their lifespan, the Fountain of Youth can extend their lifespan and even allow them to live another lifetime.

Under such immense temptation, those ancient beings who had been dormant for many years crawled out of their cultivation grounds and came to the ancient road to immortality.

Never imagined.

The Fountain of Youth truly exists.

With the Fountain of Youth right in front of them, the three old men each took a sip, and suddenly the whole situation became tense.

The three old fogies were clearly aware of this.

The fountain of youth before them was not the actual fountain, but rather a puddle that someone had accidentally spilled there.

Furthermore, the Fountain of Youth requires a sufficient amount of drinking to help them live another life.

The fountain of youth before them could only help them slow down aging to some extent; it could not help them prolong their lives, much less live another lifetime.

"It seems that someone has gotten there first and taken the Fountain of Youth, and it's in this direction."

The three old men looked up and gazed into the depths of the ancient road to immortality.

“Very good. Now that we know the whereabouts of the Fountain of Youth, let’s immediately notify the Ancient Antiques Alliance and go together to find it!” one of them said.

"No!" He was immediately stopped. "The three of us are strong enough. If we call more people, wouldn't the Fountain of Youth be divided up, or even several parts?"

Upon hearing this, the other two old fogies nodded in agreement.

"No time to lose, let's go!"

The three old men disappeared from the spot and headed together into the depths of the Ancient Road to Immortality in search of the Fountain of Youth.

I don't know who leaked the news.

News of the appearance of the Fountain of Youth quickly spread along the Ancient Path to Immortality.

All the powerful figures stopped their explorations and headed towards the depths of the ancient path to immortality.

Especially the old-fashioned ones.

Their lifespans are nearing their end, and they have come to the Ancient Road to Ascension because they have heard that a Fountain of Immortality has appeared.

Now that news of the Fountain of Youth has emerged, they are rushing to get there, fearing that someone else might get there first.

Rumble!
Rumble!
The battle between Zheng Tuo and Wen Cangtian was extremely fierce.

His current strength is not weak, but Wen Cangtian's strength is equally formidable.

The two clashed at this moment. Zheng Tuo used the Qilin Treasure Technique to fight his opponent, but surprisingly, he failed to defeat Wen Cangtian immediately.

Just as the two sides were trying to continue their fight and determine a winner, Zheng Tuo received news from the Fountain of Youth.

brush!
Zheng Tuo stopped and ceased his clashes with Wen Cangtian.

"Why did you stop!"

He asked the heavens, but they were puzzled. Then he received a telepathic message from Cangxu.

"The Fountain of Youth has appeared!"

The heavens were very interested in this.

"Now that the Fountain of Youth has appeared, our fight will be temporarily suspended. After I take the Fountain of Youth, we will have a good fight again."

The Heavenly Emperor was extremely arrogant.

Despite only being at the half-step Breakthrough Realm, he boasted that he would take the Fountain of Youth.

To know.

That Fountain of Youth is coveted by a group of ancient people.

Zheng Tuo didn't say anything, just watched Wen Cangtian and Cangxu leave.

"The Fountain of Youth?"

He was also interested in the Fountain of Youth, but for some reason, he felt that the matter was not as simple as it seemed.

It stands to reason.

The appearance of such a miraculous substance as the Fountain of Youth should not be publicized so extensively.

Is this strange turn of events perhaps a trap set by someone, waiting for people to walk right into it?
As he was contemplating whether to go, Yao Ruxian sent him a message, inviting him to join her in exploring the depths of the Ancient Path to Immortality and searching for the Fountain of Immortality.

After thinking for a moment, Zheng Tuo nodded in agreement.

Since all the powerful figures have gone there, there's no harm in going and taking a look.

He met up with Yao Ruxian and then they traveled together to the depths of the Ancient Road to Immortality.

On the flying boat.

“Fellow Daoist Ruxian, don’t you find this matter somewhat strange?” Zheng Tuo asked.

"You mean, the Fountain of Youth appeared at the perfect time?" Yao Ruxian had this question in mind for a long time.

"That's right. The appearance of the Fountain of Youth was too simple. Logically speaking, a celestial object of the Fountain of Youth level would never be easily known by anyone, let alone leaked out."

Now you see, it seems everyone has received news of the Fountain of Youth's emergence and is rushing to the depths of the ancient path to immortality.

Yao Ruxian smoothed her hair between her brows. "I have considered what you said, but who has the resources to use the Fountain of Youth as bait? What would their purpose be?"

Regarding this matter, Zheng Tuo only felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain exactly what was wrong or what the key issue was.

"I hope this is just my overthinking. In the future, we need to be careful and not act rashly just because someone has broken through the barrier in our strength. I think if the Fountain of Youth really appears, there will definitely be an extremely fierce battle."

Zheng Tuo had already anticipated that a major battle would occur.

The Fountain of Youth is not only a peerless treasure for the ancients, but also a peerless elixir for all cultivators.

If something really goes wrong, it will inevitably lead to a massive free-for-all among the wallbreakers.

The two continued their journey at a faster pace, and along the way, they saw many other powerful individuals also traveling.

Among them were even the original twelve demon immortals.

period.

Zheng Tuo stopped and struck up a conversation with them to obtain more useful information.

From this information, he learned that the Fountain of Youth had indeed appeared, and that some people had already obtained a portion of it.

however.

The true source of the Fountain of Youth has not been found.

It is said that the Fountain of Immortality is located deeper within the Ancient Path to Immortality.

This view has been widely accepted.

Like many perilous places, the Ancient Path to Immortality becomes increasingly dangerous the deeper one ventures.

Of course, the deeper you go, the more resources you find, and the stronger you need to be.

Legend has it that the secret to becoming an immortal lies at the end of the ancient road to immortality.

The Ancient Path to Immortality has existed for countless ages. Powerful beings who had broken through the barriers of the Ninth Heaven once explored it, but ultimately did not see the end of the path.

A road with no end has not deterred people from their desire to explore; on the contrary, it has inspired even more strong individuals to seek it out.

It is precisely because even the Nine Heavens, the barrier breakers, have not been able to find the end of the road that it has given people endless imagination.

In people's imaginations, perhaps at the end of the ancient road to immortality, there really is a secret to becoming an immortal.

The airship sped along, and the number of fellow travelers around it dwindled.

Furthermore, as they ventured deeper into the ancient path to immortality, they encountered numerous cultivators who had broken through the barriers to cultivation.

Zheng Tuo and Yao Ruxian have reached an area that only those who break through barriers can tread.

The surrounding scenery seemed unchanged, but the pressure around him caused Zheng Tuo's expression to shift slightly.

Now, as a god-slayer, he travels with demons and immortals, and the pressure around him poses no threat to him.

However, as they delved deeper, the surrounding pressure grew increasingly intense.

It seems that all the forbidden zones in the primordial immortal realm share this characteristic: the deeper one goes, the greater the pressure becomes.

"Fellow Daoist Ruxian, let's take a rest for a while."

Zheng Tuo saw a celestial stele in the distance.

Immortal tablets are commonplace on the ancient path to immortality. The two of them rested before an immortal tablet.

The pressure around them was immense, and if they continued on their journey, they would inevitably expend even more energy.

Simply.

It wouldn't be too late for them to stop and rest before continuing their journey.

A colossal immortal stele came into view, and Zheng Tuo couldn't resist getting closer to examine it.

The immortal tablet is covered with immortal patterns, which have become extremely blurred, clearly indicating that they have been in existence for countless years.

Legend has it that the Immortal Stele was left behind by the powerful figures who created this ancient path to immortality, and that if one can comprehend the immortal runes on it, it can help one ascend to the path of immortality.

Immortal tablets and immortal patterns appeared randomly in various corners of the ancient road to immortality.

As long as you set foot on the ancient path to immortality, you can find a celestial stele to view.

Since the existence of the Ancient Path to Immortality, countless powerful individuals have set foot on it.

Among these countless people, there were many powerful individuals, but alas, not a single one could decipher the immortal runes on the immortal stele.

After learning about the immortal runes on the immortal stele, Zheng Tuo immediately tried to comprehend them using the supreme Dao runes, but to no avail.

His supreme Dao patterns had helped him refine countless powerful Dao patterns, but they had no effect on the so-called immortal patterns.

He continues to try.

He even sent out many clones to search for immortal steles and then refine them with supreme Dao patterns.

He was just trying his luck.

If someone truly has an avatar capable of deciphering the immortal runes on the immortal stele using supreme Dao runes, then they would be making a huge profit.

pity.

So far, none of the clones he has sent out have succeeded.

He was not surprised by this.

Countless powerful individuals have visited the Ancient Path to Immortality, and there are far too many beings with talent far surpassing mine.

now.

During his break, he approached the Immortal Stele, attempting to continue his efforts.

In front of the Immortal Stele, several unfamiliar elderly men were resting.

The arrival of Zheng Tuo and Yao Ruxian immediately alerted the elders!
There's a saying among the wallbreakers: Wallbreakers have no friends, only interests.

Once you reach the level of a cultivator who has broken through barriers, no one is a naive little rabbit.

Everyone is a chosen one among the chosen ones.

Under such circumstances, no one will easily trust others.

Zheng Tuo ignored the three wary old men and went to the Immortal Stele. Looking at the huge Immortal Stele and the blurry immortal patterns on it, he felt a deep respect.

Regardless of who erected the immortal stele or created the immortal runes, one thing is certain: that powerful individual must have possessed immense strength.

Even those who have broken through to the eighth or ninth level of the Heavenly Realm cannot decipher the Immortal Runes.

He walked with his hands behind his back, circling the Immortal Stele.

Upon close inspection of the patterns on the Immortal Stele, one can see that the immortal patterns are blurred and indistinct. It is believed that after another ten thousand years, the immortal patterns will be completely erased.

Even the most powerful Dao patterns cannot withstand the erosion of time!
Zheng Tuo was filled with emotion.

"Did you notice anything?" Yao Ruxian came to Zheng Tuo's side.

She had also investigated the Immortal Stele in an attempt to decipher the secrets of the Immortal Runes.

Unfortunately, she gained nothing despite her lack of understanding.

"A celestial rune is still a celestial rune; perhaps only a true immortal can decipher it."

Zheng Tuo shook his head, having no clue about the Immortal Stele.

"We've rested enough, let's go."

Before setting off, Zheng Tuo attempted to leave a clone here so that it could continue studying the Immortal Stele.

pity.

The surrounding pressure was too immense, and his clone could not last long, so he had no choice but to give up.

The two continued on their journey.

On the road.

Zheng Tuo then saw several more enormous immortal steles.

He did not stop, but continued on his way.

As he continued on his journey, he finally saw a large number of powerful individuals gathered ahead.

As Zheng Tuo and Yao Ruxian approached, they immediately saw the enormous mountain range in front of them.

The mountains blocked out the sun and covered the entire sky, blocking everyone's path and making it impossible for people to continue.

Zheng Tuo was puzzled. How could such a huge mountain appear in this place? He had never heard of it before!

"You two are here!"

An old man appeared ahead.

The old man was none other than Old Dog, one of the three elders of the Demon Emperor's Palace.

Old Dog is the oldest of the three, practically an old relic.

The purpose of setting foot on the ancient road to immortality is, of course, to find the Fountain of Immortality.

Old Dog glanced at Zheng Tuo, the Godslayer, and then at Yao Ruxian.

After receiving a trusting look from Yao Ruxian, he said, "According to others' investigations, the Fountain of Immortality is hidden in this mountain range ahead."

"The Fountain of Youth is located in this mountain range!"

Zheng Tuo was utterly astonished!

"May I ask, senior, where does this mountain range come from? Why have I never heard of it before?" Zheng Tuo asked.

The old dog glanced at Zheng Tuo.

Since Ruxian said that this god-slayer can be trusted, then it is reasonable to trust him.

"This mountain range is an unclaimed innate treasure, which seems to be closely related to the Fountain of Youth. The Fountain of Youth is hidden within it and is very difficult to capture."

Old Dog shared the information he had gathered with Zheng Tuo and Yao Ruxian.

"So why doesn't the Fountain of Youth escape? Or is it that someone used some powerful means to fix this mountain range in place, making it difficult for the Fountain of Youth to flee?" Zheng Tuo asked with concern.

"Your deduction is correct. A powerful figure intervened and placed the treasure of this mountain range here, making it difficult for the Fountain of Youth to escape."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Tuo seemed to be deep in thought, and looked at the enormous mountain range magic weapon.

can be seen.

A group of wall-breakers set off, stepping onto the magical artifacts of the mountain range.

Just then, a bizarre scene unfolded.

The existence of the wall-breaker actually disappeared on the Magic Treasure Mountain Range. All of this was because the magic treasure on this mountain range was too big.

It was like a vast world lying there, making even those at the level of a wallbreaker appear incredibly small upon stepping onto it.

Moreover, this magical artifact is a supreme innate treasure, possessing its own spirituality. Any barrier-breaker who sets foot on it will be attacked.

"Let's set off. If we're too late, the Fountain of Youth might be taken by someone else." The old dog couldn't wait to leave and seize the Fountain of Youth.

"Gentlemen, I think it would be best to wait a bit!" Zheng Tuo said.

"Wait a minute?" The old dog clearly didn't want to wait.

"This mountain range is inherently mysterious, and no one knows what's on it. We'd better wait a bit before setting foot on it." Zheng Tuo didn't want to rush into exploring the Fountain of Youth.

“Young friend, Godslayer, since you don’t want to explore, Ruxian, let’s go first.” Old Dog called out to Ruxian.

Yao Ruxian thought for a moment, "Fellow Daoist Shishen, I will leave a mark on the road. If you set foot there later, you can find us by following the marks I left."

"it is good."

Zheng Tuo did not stop Yao Ruxian.

It's clear that Yao Ruxian really wants to extend the old dog's life.

After all, Old Dog was her protector.
