Moreover, Xiong Zhan also let Miss Zi Yan taste many delicious things that she had never tasted before.
As a result, Zi Yan felt relieved. So, she didn't think too much about it and agreed to Xiong Zhan's request.
Anyway, with Zi Yan's current ability, it would not be difficult for her to take Xiong Zhan away from this Dan world.
After Xiao Ling finished the Dan Realm assessment, she would naturally have to find a chance to secretly leave this Dan Realm and take Xiong Zhan with her. It wouldn't be a big deal, it would just be something that came naturally to her...
After hearing this answer, Xiong Zhan was filled with joy. He immediately became more attentive to Zi Yan and obeyed her orders. He almost kowtowed to her on the spot.
In the square, Xiao Ling's footsteps did not become impatient at all because of the slow passage of time. It should be noted that the matter of identifying medicines absolutely cannot allow for half-heartedness. After all, many medicinal materials look very similar. If you can't concentrate seriously, it is indeed a difficult task to identify them one by one.
Moreover, during this process, Xiao Ling had to select from time to time some medicinal herbs and rare treasures that caught his eye, which inevitably distracted him a little.
Finding medicinal herbs is a very time-consuming and laborious task. Fortunately, as Xiao Ling walked to the other end of the square, his footsteps finally stopped abruptly.
And his eyes were fixed on an inconspicuous corner. There, there was a green stone, lying quietly in the fragrant soil...
This green stone, from a distance, is indeed no different from an ordinary stone. However, when you get closer, you can find that it is covered with some very strange patterns, and the surface of the stone is slightly transparent. If you put it in a place with strong light, you can vaguely see some viscous slurry flowing inside...
Xiao Ling's gaze paused on the green stone for a moment. His previously calm face finally revealed a hint of joy.
He slowly suppressed the slight surprise in his heart and walked up to the green stone.
Then, he slowly bent down and very carefully held the palm-sized green stone in his palm.
As soon as my palm touched the green stone, I felt a warm and cool sensation. I shook it gently and heard a faint sound of water sloshing inside.
"Tsk tsk, this is the Tianma Jadeite Essence, it's really extraordinary..."
Xiao Ling concentrated on examining the green stone over and over for a long time before he finally confirmed that this thing was one of the necessary items for preparing the earth's core soul.
"It is worthy of being called the Ten Thousand Medicine Mountains. It has produced most of the most precious natural treasures in the Alchemy World. Even though the Alchemy World is now in ruins, it is still able to produce such rare natural treasures. It is truly extraordinary."
"If the Dan Realm was in a normal state at that time, I really don't know what the scene would be like. I'm afraid that the Dan Realm at that time would definitely not be much inferior to the Shennong Mountains of the Medicine Clan..."
After carefully putting the piece of Gastrodia elata jadeite into the ring, Xiao Ling couldn't help but sigh with emotion in his heart.
If he were to look for these things in the outside world, he would probably have to spend a lot of effort to get them. However, here, he only needs to bend down to look for them.
After finding this piece of Gastrodia elata jade essence, Xiao Ling continued to stroll slowly in the medicinal materials square, selecting and collecting various rare medicinal materials while exploring whether the whereabouts of Danlingjiang was here.
However, even though Xiao Ling had carefully selected all kinds of rare materials and treasures in the entire medicinal materials square, it was not beyond Xiao Ling's previous expectations. He still could not find the whereabouts of the Danlingjiang here. Naturally, this made Xiao Ling feel a little disappointed.
Since he couldn't find the Danlingjiang, Xiao Ling didn't dwell on it too much. However, as soon as he raised his head, his sight fell on Xiong Zhan who was standing beside him.
His heart couldn't help but move slightly, and he thought, isn't there someone here who is familiar with this place?
So, Xiao Ling asked, "Brother Xiong Zhan, do you know where the Danling Juice is produced in this Dan Realm or the Wanyao Mountain Range? This thing is of some use to me. If Brother Xiong Zhan knows, please tell me something."
As he spoke, Xiao Ling also described the appearance and characteristics of the Danlingjiang in detail, so that Xiong Zhan could better understand it.
After all, Xiong Zhan is just a magical beast. He usually only cares about eating and doesn't know much about things like medicinal herbs.
Xiao Ling's mind moved, and he immediately activated the power of his soul to cast the phantom dream spirit. In Xiong Zhan's sight, the general appearance of the Danlingjiang recorded in the book was materialized for Xiong Zhan to observe.
After Xiong Zhan carefully looked at the thing in front of him and thought for a while, he raised his eyebrows slightly and suddenly realized.
This medicinal material called "Danlingjiang" does exist in the Wanyao Mountains. Xiong Zhan himself once drank some of it, and this Danlingjiang belonged to a seventh-level magic beast under his command.
"Yes, I have a seventh-level black water tiger dragon under my command. In the area where it lives, there is the medicinal material described by the gentleman. Since Brother Xiao Ling needs this thing, I will personally take you to negotiate with it. However, it is my subordinate after all, so please don't make it too difficult for it."
"In that case, I'd like to trouble Brother Xiong Zhan to take me there..."
Xiao Ling's face lit up when he heard this, and a little anticipation welled up in his heart. He smiled faintly and spoke casually.
"I am definitely not some vicious person. Since this Black Water Tiger Dragon is under Brother Xiong's command, I can just exchange with it when the time comes. I will definitely not make things difficult for you, Brother Xiong Zhan."
Seeing that Xiao Ling was so reasonable and did not rely on his own strength to forcibly snatch it, Xiong Zhan had a higher opinion of Xiao Ling's character and conduct. After all, Xiao Ling was a human, and Xuanshui Tiger Jiao and Xiong Zhan were both monsters.
If it were someone else, or even a completely unfamiliar magical beast, it would be very likely that they would kill it in order to seize the Dan Ling Juice.
Xiong Zhan thought to himself that if he could follow such a man of good character in the future, his future would definitely not be too bad, and he wouldn't have to worry about being harassed or anything like that.
"Okay, Brother Xiao Ling, come with me. The cave where the Black Water Tiger Dragon is located is not far from here. It's only a few steps away. It won't be too troublesome..."
After saying that, Xiong Zhan waved his hand cheerfully and strode towards the exit of the stone palace.
"Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, how was your harvest this time? Are there a lot of good things here?" Seeing Xiao Ling taking action, Zi Yan hurriedly came to Xiao Ling's side, took one of his hands, and said happily.
"That's true. After we get back, I can refine some eighth-grade pills for you that you have never eaten before. I guarantee that you will be satisfied." Xiao Ling smiled slightly, revealing a doting smile, and said casually.
"New elixir? That's great! I'm really looking forward to it." Zi Yan's eyes lit up and her excitement was beyond words.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling could only smile helplessly. Then, he stretched out his hand and embraced Zi Yan's petite body, and then followed the footsteps of Xiong Zhan who was leaving.
Noticing the two's actions, Xiong Zhan couldn't help but look back at Xiao Ling and Zi Yan. Although he didn't show any emotion on the surface, he couldn't help but be full of curiosity in his heart.
Logically speaking, this young lady came from the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan and should not have any relationship with a human. However, the relationship between the two appeared to be very close.
Judging from the inherited memories in his mind, the Taixu ancient dragons all live in the void and rarely show up in the outside world. Ordinary people may live their entire lives without ever seeing a living Taixu ancient dragon with their own eyes.
Moreover, there is no shortage of Dou Zun powerful people like Xiao Ling in the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, and there are even countless Dou Sheng powerful people.
Even if he racked his brains to think about it, he couldn't figure out how the two people had established an intersection.
Since he couldn't figure it out, Xiong Zhan simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, he just needed to concentrate on doing his own job well, and as for other things, they were not within his scope of concern.
……
When they arrived outside the stone hall, Xiong Zhan first spoke a few words to the two monster minions who had been serving as gatekeepers, and then he personally led the way, leading Xiao Ling to fly quickly towards the area where the Xuanshui Tiger Dragon lived.
There were no unexpected situations along the way. It was only because the previous fight between Xiong Zhan and Xiao Ling had caused such a huge commotion that at this moment, no contestant dared to set foot in the depths of the Wanyao Mountains.
Even in the first half of the journey, we didn't encounter many magical beasts. They were all frightened by the noise that had been heard earlier. It would take some time before the escaped magical beasts would have the courage to return to their previous habitat.
However, even if they encountered those monsters, it would not cause any trouble. With Xiong Zhan leading the way in front, its ferocious aura spread like a tide, making the Wanyao Mountain Range, which was originally ravaged by monsters, appear unusually peaceful at this moment.
In this land, Xiong Zhan is the undisputed king, and no monster dares to challenge his authority. Even those powerful seventh-level monsters that are usually majestic and awe-inspiring, in front of Xiong Zhan, the overlord of the Wanyao Mountains, have to restrain their edges and behave themselves, not daring to act rashly.
Not long after, after flying for a while, they arrived at a wonderful sight.
Here, two towering peaks pierce the clouds like swords, and between the peaks, a clear stream meanders like a silver ribbon between heaven and earth.
Upon arriving here, Xiao Ling sensed a faint fragrance. This fragrance confirmed the knowledge in his memory, and he immediately recognized that this was the unique fresh scent of Danlingjiang.
Thinking of this, a glimmer of joy flashed in Xiao Ling's eyes, which was the anticipation for the treasure that was about to be obtained.
Several people landed on the ground one after another, and the scene before them made them stop and marvel. At the source of the stream, a huge rock about ten meters high stood, covered with thick moss, as if it was a green coat deposited by years.
Right in the center of the boulder, there is an eye-catching stone hole. A few drops of emerald green viscous liquid can be vaguely seen from the hole. This is the source of the alluring fragrance, which slowly drifts out and permeates the air.
As your eyes slowly move downwards, you can find that under the huge rock is the source of the stream, where there is a deep pool that is ten feet wide.
The water in the pool is extremely deep. When you look closely, you can only see a vast expanse of darkness, and it is difficult to reach the bottom of the pool.
The water surface is as calm as a mirror, without a single ripple. The entire deep pool is immersed in deep tranquility and harmony, as if it is nature's most tranquil embrace.
When Xiong Zhan arrived here, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He took firm steps and walked to the edge of the deep pool in a few steps.
Suddenly, he stamped his foot hard, and the ground trembled, and ripples were stirred up on the surface of the pond, spreading out...
Immediately afterwards, Xiong Zhan opened his mouth and spoke, and his voice was like rolling thunder, vast and deep, echoing in the empty valley.
"Haha, little tiger dragon, I haven't seen you for decades. I came here specially to find you. I want to borrow something for my emergency. Why don't you show up and meet me as soon as possible!"
As Xiong Zhan's words fell, the echo reverberated in the deep valley, stirring up circles of sound waves.
The ripples in the ten-foot-wide deep pool spread outward, and after a moment, a powerful breath rose from the bottom of the pool.
"Gululu!" A dull sound broke the tranquility of the pool. Xiao Ling and Zi Yan looked over at the same time, and saw that in the middle of the deep pool, like a pot of boiling water, a series of bubbles quickly emerged from the bottom of the water, stirring the water surface...
"Splash!" There was a sound of water, and then a black shadow suddenly jumped out from the deep pool, causing splashes of water.
The black shadow was not very large, only about two meters long, but its entire body was covered with scales that sparkled with a faint blue light.
The texture on the scales is as staggered as tiger stripes, exuding a fierce and sharp aura.
Its huge mouth opened and closed ferociously, revealing rows of sharp white teeth that flashed coldly in the sunlight, making people shudder.
As soon as the Black Water Tiger Dragon emerged from the water, it turned its eyes, and almost instantly, its sight was locked on Xiao Ling and others by the pond.
When its eyes fell on Xiong Zhan, who was standing with his arms folded across his chest and looking majestic, a trace of human fear flashed across its eyes. So much so that when it spoke, its tone revealed a kind of respect and humility.
"Respected Lord Xiong Zhan, I wonder what important matter has brought you here to look for me, Tiger Jiao, today?"
Xiong Zhan didn't waste any time talking to Xuanshui Hujiao. He simply pointed in the direction of the Danling Juice, nodded slightly, and said bluntly, "This Danling Juice is very important to my friend. I remember you have it hidden here, so I came to ask you for it today."
Chapter 448 Dan Spirit Serum
The tiger dragon followed Xiong Zhan's gaze, and when it saw that Xiong Zhan was staring at its own green liquid, a gloomy look instantly appeared in its eyes, and a touch of sadness quietly swept across its heart.
The green liquid was the basis for it to open its spiritual wisdom and grow smoothly into a seventh-level magical beast. However, today, it knew in its heart that it might not be able to keep this treasure.
The tiger dragon slowly turned its head. Facing the vast aura emanating from Xiong Zhan, and the invisible yet powerful sense of oppression, it did not dare to have the slightest thought of resistance.
It lowered its head, with a hint of helplessness in its voice, and slowly said: "So that's how it is. Since the Bear Lord has already taken a fancy to this thing, how dare the Tiger Dragon refuse..."
Seeing the depressed look of the Black Water Tiger Dragon, how could Xiong Zhan not understand its reluctance and helplessness? He laughed heartily and said, "Alright, alright, stop looking so pitiful. I am not the kind of person who takes advantage of others for nothing. Don't worry, we are here to trade with you, and your compensation will naturally not be less. Maybe this can even be an opportunity for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiong Zhan turned to face Xiao Ling behind him, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao Ling, the next negotiation will have to be conducted by you in person and negotiate with this Xuanshui Tiger Dragon."
Xiao Ling nodded slightly, then gently placed Zi Yan in his arms on the ground. Then, he walked steadily towards the edge of the pool, and each step seemed steady and orderly.
Xiao Ling stopped at the edge of the pool and looked up at the black water tiger dragon that had half of its body exposed above the water.
He knew in his heart that although it behaved quite docilely at the moment, once it entered combat mode, its body would probably swell to several hundred feet in size, and it would appear extremely ferocious.
After all, the Xuanshui Tiger Jiao has dragon blood flowing in its body, and has more or less connection with the dragon clan. From this point of view, it is natural for Xiong Zhan to take care of it out of consideration for its bloodline.
However, the Black Water Tiger Dragon was quite surprised that Xiong Zhan and a human could actually call each other brothers.
Normally, these humans and local monsters should be in a hostile state, and Xiong Zhan, as the overlord of the Wanyao Mountains, should keep his distance from humans and should not have any relationship with them. However, everything in front of him obviously broke the routine.
If it remembered correctly, this period of time was when the Alchemy Conference started every thirty years.
Looking back many years ago, it had come into contact with some humans who participated in the Alchemy Association assessment. Those humans had been greedy for its treasured emerald green spiritual liquid and even attacked it.
However, those humans' attempts ultimately failed, and they all ended up with a tragic end, being swallowed by the snake as delicacies. But in its heart, its initial impression of humans was not friendly.
Staring at Xiao Ling, who was standing in front of him with a calm temperament, Xuanshui Tiger Dragon did not feel the slightest contempt or hostility in his heart.
Not to mention that this person can maintain such a close relationship with Xiong Zhan, just from the aura faintly emanating from him, one can tell that his cultivation is not inferior to Xiong Zhan's in any way. One can even feel a bit of power beyond Xiong Zhan in that breath.
There was also a burning breath that slowly diffused from his body, causing this magical beast that was good at water to feel fear and trepidation.
"May I ask, sir, how do you plan to conduct this transaction with me?" The tiger dragon looked at the human man in front of him and asked politely with a tone full of respect.
