The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

Chapter 3044 The Madness of the Old Relics

Outside the fourth-order divine array, experts were as numerous as clouds.

A series of antique vehicles are parked here.

People are watching and observing.

Looking at the gate leading to the fourth-order divine array in the distance, some old-timers were eager to try.

Just now, a message came from within the fourth-order divine array that someone had discovered an unparalleled immortal medicine, and everyone was fighting over it.

A peerless elixir, a peerless elixir, that is a peerless elixir.

Such a peerless elixir would tempt anyone, so how could the dozens of ancient figures present not be tempted?

But they were extremely hesitant about it.

The reason for the hesitation was naturally because the fourth-order divine array was too dangerous.

If they rashly enter, they might end up dead here, because everything here is too eerie, too much like a trap set by someone.

Some ancient artifacts hesitated, while others couldn't resist and entered the portal in their true forms to harvest the peerless elixir.

This scene further agitated many old-fashioned people.

They came here in search of something to prolong their lives; their original goal was the Fountain of Youth.

Now that we've encountered this peerless elixir, we naturally have to fight for it.

Some old-timers couldn't resist entering the fourth-order divine array, while most of them remained calm and didn't rush.

Simultaneously.

An ancient relic has intervened, actually setting up an array around the area.

obviously.

If someone were to actually bring out a peerless elixir from the fourth-order divine array, it would inevitably cause a massive melee among all the old-timers present.

The struggle for the ultimate elixir will inevitably lead to bloodshed.

"You've found something good so quickly!"

Zheng Tuo sat on the flying boat, thinking that this was too fast.

The portal to the fourth-order divine array had not been open for long, and people had just entered when they discovered a peerless elixir.

What do you two think?

Zheng Tuo inquired about Yao Ruxian and the old dog.

“I think we should not act rashly for now. The situation is still unclear. If we go there rashly, something terrible will happen. Moreover, as you can see, someone has set a trap here. I'm afraid that as long as someone breaks through the wall, they will be questioned, and it may even lead to a big battle between the two sides.”

The old dog revealed what was on his mind.

Zheng Tuo nodded, agreeing with what Lao Gou said.

They continued to wait there peacefully.

a few days later.

A red-clad wall-breaker emerged from the gate of the fourth-order divine array.

Its appearance immediately drew everyone's attention.

The old man in red did not linger and intended to leave the place immediately.

"stop!"

An old man called out, stopping the red-clad elder who was about to leave.

The old man in red glanced at the wall-breakers around him and suddenly stomped his foot.

Bang!
In an instant, smoke and dust filled the air, obscuring everyone's vision.

brush!
The old man in red took advantage of the chaos to run away, trying to escape the place.

"Stop him!"

A sound came from inside.

Several powerful attacks immediately shot towards the red-robed elder.

The old man in red had clearly anticipated this; he flipped over to avoid all attacks and activated his secret technique.

Whoosh!
It transformed into a streak of red light, attempting to break through the obstruction and leave this place.

No matter what.

This place has long been protected by a series of ancient relics.

The old man in red charged several times, but was blocked by the surrounding attacks each time.

Helpless, the old man in red turned and retreated back into the gate.

"Gentlemen, what do you mean by this?"

The old man in red looked warily at everyone present.

"Hand over the peerless elixir, and I'll spare your life."

At this moment, someone spoke up, expressing the sentiments of everyone present.

"Peerless elixir? What peerless elixir? Fellow Daoists, you're all overthinking it." The red-robed elder shook his head.

"Enough with the nonsense. If you didn't have some unparalleled elixir, why would you be leaving in such a hurry?"

"Everyone, I think you've really misunderstood. I don't have any peerless elixir. I originally intended to go and obtain it, but when I got there, I found that it had already been taken."

The old man in red spoke with sincerity, but no one believed him.

"I'll say it one last time: hand over the peerless elixir you possess, or you won't be leaving."

This situation seemed to be within the old man's expectations.

Simply.

The old man in red turned and returned to the fourth-order divine array.

Seeing this, no one dared to chase after the old man in red, because they were unaware of the situation inside the fourth-order divine formation.

It's better to be safe than sorry. What if the old man in red is bait, deliberately luring them in and then setting a trap to kill them?

While peerless elixirs are certainly precious, the original Dao patterns on the ancient artifacts are equally valuable.

Peerless elixirs are rare, but the original Dao patterns on ancient artifacts are quite common.

The powerful figures present.

There have been instances of people killing ancient beings to obtain primordial Dao patterns.

The old man in red left, and no one dared to chase after him.

Much later.

Another bombshell has emerged from behind the door.

Someone discovered the location of the Fountain of Youth, and a fierce fight broke out over it.

The news of this resurgence immediately excited many old-timers.

They came here specifically for the Fountain of Youth.

Now that the Fountain of Youth has appeared, some ancient beings could no longer resist and immediately entered the fourth-order divine array, attempting to seize the Fountain of Youth ahead of time.

To know.

The biggest difference between the Fountain of Youth and the Peerless Elixir is that...

The most powerful elixir of immortality requires the entire dose to be effective, while the Fountain of Youth can prolong life with just a sip—simple and easy to use.

and so.

If one could enter the fray earlier to compete for the Fountain of Youth, without needing to claim it for oneself, simply drinking a few large gulps might extend one's life by a hundred or even a thousand years.

Furthermore.

The appearance of the red-robed elder just now told everyone one thing: they could freely enter and exit the fourth-order divine array without any restrictions.

In other words.

If they are lucky, they can extend their lives by a hundred or even a thousand years.

Such a huge temptation immediately made some old-fashioned people restless.

The earlier you enter, the greater your chance of drinking from the Fountain of Youth; and the earlier you drink from the Fountain of Youth, the more it can help prolong your life.

In order to drink from the Fountain of Youth sooner and to drink more from it, some ancient beings set out and entered the fourth-order divine array.

There are at least ten antiques entering this time.

After the ten ancient beings entered, a wave of energy at the level of a Wall Breaker soon emanated from behind the door.

obviously.

An ancient being who has broken through the barriers is engaged in a great battle with others, all for the purpose of seizing the Fountain of Youth.

Terrifying fluctuations emanated from within the portal, while the various ancient figures outside wore solemn expressions, awaiting the outcome of the battle.

They wanted to know who would ultimately win the battle and who would obtain the Fountain of Youth.

This battle lasted for several days.

Finally, the battle ended.

however.

Although the battle was over, no ancient relic emerged from the fourth-order divine array.

People were very curious about who won and whether they obtained the Fountain of Youth.

Soon, the message arrived.

No one obtained the Fountain of Youth, which escaped once again. However, someone obtained some of the water, and after drinking it, they were instantly rejuvenated.

The arrival of such information is truly explosive.

Especially when that old antique returned, it caused all the old antiques to get up and look.

"Cheng Xin!"

Someone knows this old-fashioned person named Cheng Xin.

"You are Cheng Xin!"

The speaker could hardly believe his eyes.

Both of them were ancient relics, but at this moment, he still looked old, while the ancient relic named Cheng Xin looked like a young man.

Upon closer inspection, this person's vital energy and blood were abundant, and their spiritual pressure was stable, showing absolutely no signs of fatigue typical of an old man.

"Hahaha!"

Cheng Xin let out a hearty laugh.

"I was lucky enough to drink two mouthfuls from the Fountain of Youth, which only extended my life by a thousand years, hahaha..."

Such simple words were like a thunderclap.

It instantly caused a sensation in the world of antique collectors.

To extend one's life by a thousand years—that's a thousand-year lifespan; who wouldn't want that?

Some secretly regretted that they shouldn't have hesitated and should have gone to fight for it; perhaps at this moment, they would have already extended their lives by a thousand years.

The old folks whispered among themselves.

Some were eager to try their luck, preparing to rush in and seize the Fountain of Youth the next time they received information about it.

Even if one cannot possess the Fountain of Youth, one can at least drink two large gulps like Cheng Xin did, thus extending one's lifespan by a thousand years.

A thousand years of lifespan is enough for many things to happen.

"This person is very lucky!"

Zheng Tuo looked at the old man named Cheng Xin.

Judging from the aura emanating from him, this guy really did drink from the Fountain of Youth.

"How about I go in and take a look next time?"

The old dog was somewhat tempted.

He has now extended his life by three thousand years, so logically he shouldn't take any risks.

But now that he has this opportunity, he wants to get some more of the Fountain of Youth and see if it can help him live another life.

The temptation of being able to live a second life is still very strong.

"hold on."

Zheng Tuo wasn't in a hurry, since he didn't need the Fountain of Youth to extend his life anyway.

Yao Ruxian wasn't in a hurry; she was still young.

Only the old dog seemed a bit anxious, eager to fight for it.

Zheng Tuo could tell from Lao Gou's attitude.

“Fellow Daoist, if you wish to compete, then go ahead. We are both still young, so there’s no need to consider our feelings. Of course, if you want to compete, you’d better be careful.”

Upon hearing this, the old dog nodded.

It's clear that if the Fountain of Youth is discovered again, Old Dog will definitely go there in person.

Zheng Tuo had nothing to say about this.

He has no right to judge what the old dog wants to do; their relationship is merely that of fellow Daoists.

Thinking to myself, I continued to wait.

a few days later.

News of the Fountain of Youth has resurfaced.

Instantly.

The various old relics who had been waiting for a long time immediately rushed into the gate.

Soon after, the sounds of a great battle emanated from the portal.

obviously.

A new battle for the Fountain of Youth has begun.

This battle was even more brutal than the last one, and the powerful shockwaves were astonishing, even penetrating through the portal!
To survive and to drink from the fountain of youth, these old fogies really pulled out all the stops and fought desperately.

This battle lasted for several more days.

After the battle, an old relic returned.

This time, all the old relics that came out were injured, and none of them looked young.

The few old antiques who appeared later all had ruddy complexions, clearly having drunk from the fountain of youth and extended their lifespans considerably.

Some are happy, some are sad.

Those wounded old artifacts repaired their injuries and prepared to fight again.

Having witnessed the effects of others drinking from the fountain of youth, they were even more tempted.

With their lifespan so close, how could they not go mad?

"Grandpa Dog!"

Yao Ruxian was worried about the old dog, staring at the gate, fearing that Grandpa Dog might perish inside.

Before long, the old dog returned from within.

As you can see, the old dog has injuries, but he is excited.

"So close, so very close!"

The old dog mumbled incessantly, indicating that it was just a hair's breadth away from drinking from the Fountain of Youth.

"Grandpa Dog, what happened inside?" Yao Ruxian asked quickly.

"It's nothing. Some of the wall-breakers found the location of the Fountain of Youth, and everyone rushed towards it. In order to escape, the Fountain of Youth deliberately spilled some of its water, which caused the fight. I was unlucky and was far away from the water, so I didn't get to drink it. Next time, I'll definitely be able to drink it next time."

The old dog quickly healed its injuries, preparing for its next attack.

Seeing the old dog so eager to try, Yao Ruxian was quite worried.

A chaotic battle among several old-timers—if anything goes wrong, they might be surrounded and killed.

Some ancient beings, seeing that they could not obtain the Fountain of Immortality on their own, simply joined forces with others to kill other ancient beings in an attempt to seize the original Dao patterns on their bodies.

"Grandpa Dog, it's so dangerous. Why don't we just give up and fight for it? You've already extended your life by three thousand years anyway."

Yao Ruxian advised the old dog not to go any further, as it was too dangerous.

"I'm not afraid. Although the battle just now was dangerous, I was prepared. As for you, my girl, this is a rare opportunity. I have to give it my all, otherwise, I won't have such a good chance next time."

Old Dog's words make sense.

The Fountain of Youth isn't something you can encounter anytime.

Now that they've encountered this group of old fogies, they're naturally going to take a gamble, even if it's dangerous.

Seeing how excited the old dog was, Zheng Tuo didn't try to persuade him, because he knew he couldn't change his mind.

At this moment, the old dog was completely out of control.

Just like the old relics around us who were involved.

Some of them benefited from the increased lifespan, so they continued to compete for more.

Some continued to participate because they saw others drinking from the Fountain of Youth to extend their lifespan and felt that they also had a chance.

The old relics were all completely under the control of the Fountain of Youth.

As a result, more and more old-fashioned people are getting restless and starting to get involved.

More and more old relics are getting involved, which is why the battle is constantly escalating.

As the battle escalated, the situation began to spiral out of control.

at last.

In such a frenzied battle, some old relics perished.

The one who broke through the barrier was killed within the fourth-order divine array, and the original Dao patterns he possessed were taken away.

This incident immediately caused a huge uproar.

The fall of a Wallbreaker is always a major event, because Wallbreakers are very difficult to kill in the Primordial Immortal Realm.

But here.

Their inability to open their own vast world makes the Breakers easier to kill.

however.

Even though some who broke through the barrier were killed in the fourth-order divine array, these ancient beings were still fighting for the Fountain of Youth.

As time went on, it seemed that many people had benefited from it.

however.

For these ancient beings who have lived for thousands of years, extending their lives by a hundred or even a thousand years is far from enough.

They have only one ultimate goal.

That is to use the properties of the Fountain of Youth to help oneself live a second life.
