Immortality and Immortality: Liver Experience Begins in the Desert

The rich medicinal fragrance is like a lively elf, permeating every inch of the air in the spiritual medicine garden, making people intoxicated both physically and mentally when they smell it.

That afternoon, the warm and soft sunlight, like a layer of golden gauze, gently fell on the spiritual medicine garden.

Jiang Qiong and the other two were taking a rest in the garden, enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

Some of them closed their eyes to rest, while others chatted quietly, with contented expressions on their faces.

However, a burst of hurried and hurried footsteps suddenly broke the silence like a heavy hammer.

Li Yi looked a little nervous and hurried towards them.

He panted and said anxiously, "Jiang Qiong, Nan Fengxue, Lang Nana, the president of the Xingyun Chamber of Commerce is here, and he said he wants to purchase a large amount of our spiritual medicine."

When the three heard this, it was as if they had heard a battle horn. They immediately stood up like springs, quickly tidied their clothes, and followed Li Yi to the entrance of the spiritual medicine garden to greet the distinguished guests.

From a distance, I saw a group of more than ten people walking steadily towards this side. The leader was a middle-aged woman who was wearing an extremely gorgeous purple brocade robe with exquisite golden cloud patterns embroidered on it.

The cloud patterns seemed to be endowed with life, floating gently with her light steps, just like the colorful and ever-changing clouds in the sky.

Around her waist she wore a dazzling belt inlaid with gems of various colors, each of which emitted a charming glow, highlighting her extraordinary identity and noble status.

The woman had a pretty face, with eyes and brows that revealed a shrewdness and competence, like a heroine who had been in the business world for a long time.

Her long, shiny black hair was neatly tied behind her head and secured with a crystal clear jade hairpin that looked like a work of art.

A few strands of naughty hair fall on both sides of her cheeks, adding a touch of charm.

Behind her, there were eight guards with burly figures that looked like iron towers.

They were dressed in black tights that fit their strong bodies tightly, showing their agility and quickness.

They wore long swords on their waists, the blades flashing with cold light, as if telling of their sharpness and majesty.

Their eyes were sharp, like a group of vigilant cheetahs, constantly scanning everything around them with alertness, emitting a chilling and murderous aura, as if any enemy who dared to approach would be repelled instantly by them.

There were also two men in grey robes, holding account books and pens in their hands. Their focused expressions and professional demeanors showed that they were the experienced accountants of the Xingyun Chamber of Commerce.

"This is President Lin of the Xingyun Chamber of Commerce."

Li Yi walked forward and introduced him respectfully, his tone full of respect for the distinguished guest.

"President Lin, these three are Jiang Qiong, Nan Fengxue, and Lang Nana, who are in charge of the Spiritual Medicine Garden's affairs."

President Lin nodded slightly. Her eyes, as clear as autumn water, swept over Jiang Qiong and the other two one by one. A faint smile appeared on her face, like a flower blooming in spring, which was both friendly and business-savvy.
"I have long heard of your great names. This time I came here to discuss the purchase of a batch of spiritual medicines from your garden. What do you think?"

Jiang Qiong smiled back politely, with sincerity and enthusiasm in her smile: "President Lin, you are too polite. Since you have come from afar, we welcome you. I just wonder which spiritual medicines you want to buy and how many?"

An accountant beside President Lin stepped forward and skillfully flipped open the account book, the paper of which exuded a faint scent of ink. He cleared his throat and said:

"We want to buy two hundred nine-leaf Ganoderma lucidum, three hundred Lingxi fruit, and five hundred Qingling grass."

Hearing this number, Jiang Qiong was shocked, as if a huge rock was thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

These are the most precious spiritual plants in the spiritual medicine garden. Purchasing such a huge quantity really requires careful consideration.

He subconsciously looked at Nan Fengxue and Lang Nana, and the eyes of the three met in the air. In an instant, it seemed as if an invisible tacit understanding flowed between them, and they understood each other's thoughts.

"President Lin, the spiritual medicines you need are in huge quantities and are extremely precious species. We need some time to prepare them."

Jiang Qiong said neither humbly nor arrogantly, with a calm and firm tone. "Also, regarding the price..."

President Lin smiled slightly, as if he knew everything and had expected it:

"The price is negotiable. As long as the three of you can provide high-quality spiritual medicine, our Xingyun Chamber of Commerce will never treat you unfairly."

Next, the two sides engaged in an extremely fierce bargaining over the price, which was like a war without the smoke of gunpowder.

President Lin is worthy of being an experienced and long-time business president. Her words are sharp, and every word is like a sharp blade. She presses forward step by step, trying to lower the price to the lowest level.

Jiang Qiong and the other two were not to be outdone. They elaborated in detail on the preciousness of these spiritual plants and the difficult process of cultivating them.

Jiang Qiong describes every detail, from the growth environment of spiritual plants, the special spiritual power required for cultivation, to the carefulness when picking them;

Nan Fengxue calmly analyzed the market situation. With accurate data and keen insight, she pointed out the selling price of spiritual medicines of the same quality in other places, forcing President Lin to re-evaluate the price.
Lang Nana started from the efficacy and scarcity of spiritual plants. She vividly described the importance of these spiritual medicines to immortal cultivators and their scarcity in the entire immortal cultivation world, emphasizing the irreplaceable nature of these spiritual medicines.

After a fierce debate, the two sides finally reached an agreement. President Lin smiled with satisfaction, which showed both the joy of the successful transaction and the recognition of Jiang Qiong and the other two:

"You three are really straightforward. It's a pleasure doing business with you! Here's the deposit." As she spoke, she waved her hand gracefully, and a guard immediately stepped forward and handed over an exquisite box.

The box was made of top-grade agarwood and exuded a light fragrance. When it was opened, it was filled with top-grade spiritual stones. The spiritual stones exuded a rich aura, which was like materialized clouds and mist, floating gently in the box, making people feel a powerful energy.

Jiang Qiong carefully took the box, as if she was holding the most precious treasure in the world: "President Lin, don't worry, we will prepare the elixir within the agreed time and deliver it on time."

In the next few days, Jiang Qiong and the other two were like tireless bees, leading the disciples of the Immortal Sect to carefully select and pick spiritual plants.

They shuttled through the spiritual medicine garden with sharp eyes, carefully checking the quality of each spiritual plant to ensure that each spiritual medicine met the highest standards.

Finally, the day of delivery arrived. They loaded the packaged spiritual medicine onto a specially made hearse, which was made of solid spiritual wood and had mysterious runes carved on the body, which could effectively protect the spiritual medicine from interference from the outside world.

The hearse was escorted by Jiang Qiong, Nan Fengxue and Lang Nana to the agreed delivery location. Along the way, the hearse moved slowly on the rugged and winding mountain road, like a slowly crawling giant beast.

It is surrounded by dense forests, with trees towering into the clouds and branches and leaves intertwined to form a green ocean.

Occasionally, the sound of birds chirping adds a touch of vitality to this quiet journey.

Jiang Qiong was riding on a horse, his posture was upright, like an unshakable pine tree.

They looked around vigilantly, feeling vaguely uneasy, as if a pair of eyes were watching them in the darkness.

Nan Fengxue and Lang Nana sat on both sides of the hearse. They were graceful, like a pair of fairies guarding the hearse.

Always ready to respond to emergencies, with determination and courage revealed in his eyes.

The guards held weapons that flashed coldly in the sun. They followed the hearse closely, forming a tight protective circle, like an indestructible city wall.

When the team reached a valley, the peaks on both sides of the valley towered into the clouds, as if it was a crack that nature had split with a giant axe.

Suddenly, a sharp and piercing whistle broke the silence. The whistle sounded like the cry of a night owl, which made people feel creepy.

Jiang Qiong's face instantly became solemn, and he shouted, "Be careful, there is an ambush!" Just as he finished speaking, a group of people poured out from the surrounding woods like a tide. They were wearing black cloaks that fluttered in the wind, like a group of messengers from hell.

Their faces were covered, revealing only a pair of eyes full of greed and ferocity. They held sharp blades that flashed cold light in the sun as they rushed towards the hearse.

"Protect the elixir!" Jiang Qiong drew out his soft sword like an angry cheetah. The sword body flashed with a cyan-gold light, which seemed like the sun's radiance, dazzling.

He rushed towards the bandits first, his sword skills were sharp, and each strike carried great power, as if he was going to chop the enemy down with his sword.

Nan Fengxue quickly formed seals with her hands. Her hands were like a pair of dancing butterflies, with graceful and smooth movements.

The ice spikes shot towards the thieves like a rainstorm, flashing with cold light, instantly freezing several thieves who were rushing in front, turning them into crystal clear ice sculptures.

Lang Nana cast a spell of spiritual plants. She chanted something and summoned thick vines. The vines emerged from the ground like dragons and entangled the thieves' legs, making them unable to move, as if they were bound beasts.

The thieves were obviously well-trained. Although they were attacked unexpectedly, they quickly adjusted themselves like a well-trained army, divided into several small teams, and coordinated with each other to launch the attack.

Their goal was very clear, which was to snatch the elixir from the hearse. The greed in their eyes made it seem as if they wanted to swallow the elixir in one gulp.

The guards were not to be outdone and they engaged in a fierce fight with the bandits. For a moment, the sounds of shouting and magic clashing intertwined and echoed in the valley like a tragic war song.

Jiang Qiong performed the Spectroscopic Sword Technique, and the soft sword danced quickly in his hand like a nimble dragon.

Dozens of sword lights were separated, and the sword lights were like sharp blades, flashing cold light, flying towards the thieves.

Wherever the sword light reached, the thieves fell down one after another, their bodies were cut by the sword light, leaving scars.

However, the number of thieves was too large. They kept coming in wave after wave like a surging tide, making it difficult for them to cope.

Nan Fengxue discovered during the battle that these thieves seemed to have some knowledge of their spells and were able to dodge and resist them skillfully.

She was shocked and realized that these thieves were not ordinary bandits and there might be a master behind them directing them.

While she continued to cast ice spells, she shouted to Jiang Qiong, "Jiang Qiong, these thieves are not simple, we have to be careful!"

Jiang Qiong nodded, her eyes revealing determination and resoluteness: "No matter who they are, we can't let them succeed!"

As he spoke, he injected spiritual power into the soft sword, and the soft sword shone brightly, like a shining star.

He swung his sword violently, and a powerful sword energy slashed towards the group of thieves. Wherever the sword energy passed, the trees were cut in half. The thieves were also pushed back several steps by this powerful force, and their bodies were shaking under the impact of the sword energy.

Lang Nana continued to manipulate the vines to form a protective barrier around the hearse. The barrier was made up of thick vines woven together, like a green Great Wall.

To prevent the thieves from getting close, she also used vines to attack the thieves. The vines were like flexible whips, whipping the thieves. The thieves screamed in pain and were defenseless.

During the fierce battle, a thief took advantage of everyone's inattention and sneaked around behind the hearse. Like a cunning fox, he tried to open the door and steal the elixir.

Nan Fengxue had sharp eyes and immediately discovered his intention. She clasped her hands together and condensed a huge block of ice. The ice block flashed with cold light, like a huge piece of cold jade.

The thief was hit by the ice block before he could dodge. He fainted on the spot, and his body was buried in the ice, as if an iceberg was swallowing him.

However, the thieves did not retreat because of their companion's fall. Instead, they attacked more frantically. Their eyes were full of madness and greed, as if they were possessed by the devil.

Although Jiang Qiong and others fought hard, they gradually became exhausted. Their clothes were soaked with sweat and their breathing became rapid.

At this moment, Jiang Qiong suddenly discovered that there was a man among the thieves who seemed to be their leader. This man was holding a black sword, which exuded a mysterious aura.

The swordsmanship was sharp, and each sword carried great power, directing the actions of the bandits. Jiang Qiong had an idea and decided to get rid of the leader first, perhaps to disrupt the bandits' formation.

He seized the opportunity, displayed his body skills, and rushed towards the leader like a flash of lightning. His speed was so fast that it seemed as if he moved instantly.

The leader saw this and swung his sword to fight back. The two men instantly engaged in battle, sword shadows intersecting, light flashing, like a gorgeous sword show.

Jiang Qiong used all his skills and his sword skills were unpredictable. Sometimes his sword skills were like a violent storm, and sometimes like a gurgling stream, trying to find the leader's weakness.

The leader was not to be outdone. His swordsmanship was steady and his defense was tight. His swordsmanship was like a solid shield, blocking Jiang Qiong's attacks one by one. For a moment, it was hard to tell who was better between the two.

Nan Fengxue and Lang Nana saw Jiang Qiong fighting fiercely with the leader and knew that he needed support, so they attacked the surrounding bandits even harder to create opportunities for Jiang Qiong. (End of this chapter)
