Undying Life

Chapter 287: Chapter 287 Central Secret Technique

"Just now, letting him go was just for Baor's sake. You want to know who I am? You're not worthy!" the immortal retorted sharply.

Listening to the immortal's tone, Zhongshan showed no hint of anger, at least not on his face.

The immortal indeed had the qualifications, but from the immortal's attitude towards Baor, Zhongshan deduced a lot.

She said she was identical to Baor, even down to the hairs, and Baor was obviously harboring some conspiracy, aimed at Baor.

Though she didn't know what the conspiracy was, Baor couldn't be taken by her. Baor was hers, and no one could take her away. Since she had hinted at it, then she would prepare herself to face this conspiracy.

"Since the senior is unwilling to speak, then the junior won't force it. But, does the senior have any words for Baor? I will convey them for her," Zhongshan said.

"Baor is of the Zhongding physique, right?" the immortal looked at Zhongshan.

"Yes!" Zhongshan furrowed her brows. How much did she know about Baor exactly?

"Bring a jade slip," the immortal said.

Zhongshan fetched a jade slip and handed it to the immortal.

The immortal tapped on it, inputting a large amount of information.

"This technique, 'Central Secret Technique,' give it to Baor for cultivation," the immortal said.

"Yes!" Zhongshan nodded, pocketing the jade slip. She didn't disobey, nor did she say much.

"Little one, you better not play tricks with me!" the immortal stared at Zhongshan.

"The junior wouldn't dare!" Zhongshan wore a sincere expression.

With a satisfied smile, the immortal glanced at the countless blocks of ice above, waved his right hand, and Zhongshan disappeared with him from the spot, reappearing at the mouth of the original volcano.

However, the magma had all been frozen into ice.

The people around patiently waited. When they saw the immortal coming out with Zhongshan, they all stepped back, focusing on the rose in Zhongshan's right hand.

Zhongshan glanced around, feeling very strange. Where did all the people who were here earlier go? There were only these powerful experts of the Huangji Realm left. Weren't there a lot of Giant Deer King's subordinates before? And where did the other experts who came here go?

"Alright, according to your wishes, give it to one person, I'm leaving," the immortal said.

"Thank you, senior!" Zhongshan nodded immediately.

She looked around at the people.

Giant Deer King, Flame Wolf General, Ada, Purple Smoke, Nian Youyou, Wu An, and three unfamiliar faces.

Who to give it to? The unfamiliar ones were out of the question. Giant Deer King and Wu An were directly ignored.

Now, there was only Flame Wolf General, Nian Youyou, Ada, and Purple Smoke.

Flame Wolf General looked extremely eager, really wanting that immortal flower.

Nian Youyou's eyes showed confidence because she knew Zhongshan was a trustworthy person. He owed her a rose, and he had a rose in his hand.

Ada, on the other hand, seemed slightly envious, or rather, Ada was very self-disciplined and could control his desires.

As for Purple Smoke, she always had a cold expression. There was a glimmer of hope in her eyes for the immortal flower, but it quickly faded away.

Flame Wolf General? Zhongshan gave up directly. Although he admitted just now that he was his subordinate below, it wasn't sincere, just to save his life.

Ada, actually, according to past situations, Zhongshan should have given the flower to Ada, but Zhongshan also excluded him. It's not that Zhongshan forgot her loyalty for her desires, but Ada's origin. Zhongshan still didn't know until now. A subordinate of Princess Qianyou? Why is he Princess Qianyou's subordinate? Zhongshan guessed that Ada's true allegiance should be to the Emperor of the Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty, just like the shadow guards of Dajue, sent to protect the princess.

Once she turned against the Emperor of the Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty, Ada would undoubtedly stand by the Emperor's side. Moreover, even if Zhongshan wanted to express gratitude, it should be to Princess Qianyou. For Ada's care, Zhongshan would find another way to repay him later.

Nian Youyou? Hmph!

Here, perhaps the only one who truly had no desires or ambitions was Purple Smoke!

Although she often wore a cold expression, in their few encounters, her thoughts were actually the simplest. Choosing Zhongshan last time at the Kaiyang Sect, saving her with a single palm before, weren't those the simplest thoughts? Moreover, deep down, Zhongshan also felt a sense of responsibility!

Taking a deep breath, Zhongshan faced Purple Smoke and said, "Elder Purple Smoke, thank you for saving my life just now. I can't use this immortal flower right now, so please accept it!"

"Zhongshan, you're not keeping your promise!" Nian Youyou exclaimed suddenly.

And the others followed suit with a sense of regret.

"Not keeping my promise? I've never broken my promises. Don't worry, I'll give you three thousand roses. When you said within a hundred years, the time hasn't come yet, so I'm not being unfaithful," Zhongshan said bluntly.

"You!..." Nian Youyou was furious.

"I don't need your thanks!" Purple Smoke took a deep breath and shook her head.

Everyone was stunned. Why was the scene so awkward? Everyone wanted that immortal flower, and now it was being given to Purple Smoke, who refused it?

It was truly exasperating!

Faced with such an awkward situation, Zhongshan felt no embarrassment. She remained composed, her face unchanged, truly reaching a level of thick skin.

"Elder, please help me give the flower to this Elder Purple Smoke!" Zhongshan said directly to the immortal, ignoring the awkwardness.

Hearing Zhongshan's words, everyone was speechless. Wasn't this a bit forceful?

She didn't want it, so she found someone she couldn't resist and shoved it to her?

"Well, fine!" The immortal didn't want to waste any more time or witness the entanglement of these ants, so he waved his hand directly.

The immortal flower in Zhongshan's hand flew towards Purple Smoke and was even more directly injected into her body by the immortal.

As everyone looked enviously and dejectedly, it merged into Purple Smoke's body.

Purple Smoke glanced at the immortal, then at Zhongshan, her eyes flashing with anger and strangeness. She turned and flew away in a certain direction.

Watching Purple Smoke leave, everyone felt a sense of 'reluctance'.

"She's gone to refine it, I'm leaving too!" the immortal said.

And in just a moment, a large number of dark clouds slowly gathered in the sky, as if targeting the immortal.

Just then, the immortal trembled slightly.

Suddenly, he turned into a burst of green smoke and disappeared, as did the dark clouds in the sky, dispersing slowly, as if they had suddenly disappeared into the cracks of time and space. With the immortal's departure, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they all looked at Zhongshan in surprise. How did she know the immortal? What did she say to the immortal below just now?

"Everyone, the immortal flower has been given away. Why are you still here?" Zhongshan smiled.

Zhongshan was ready to bid farewell to her guests.

"Go!" The Giant Deer King said directly to Wu An.

Then, the Giant Deer King flew away with Wu An in tow, and Flame Wolf General glanced at Zhongshan before turning and flying away as well, not mentioning the matter of being Zhongshan's subordinate. The other three unfamiliar people also turned and left.

Only Ada and Nian Youyou remained.

"Sir!" Ada was about to frown and say something.

"Buzz~~~"

A golden shadow, at a terrifying speed, came straight towards Zhongshan.

"Whoosh~~~"

It was too fast. Nian Youyou and Ada hadn't even reacted yet when the golden shadow directly entered Zhongshan's body.

"Huiguang?" Zhongshan sat down suddenly, filled with anger.

How dare this Huiguang try to possess her?

Cross-legged, Zhongshan immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. Ada quickly formed a shield to protect Zhongshan, while Nian Youyou stood by, silent, with a slight frown.

Huiguang had waited for a long time, afraid to come out earlier for fear of being captured and refined into a magic weapon by others. Now that most people had left, if he didn't possess someone now, he would be in real trouble.

Ada and Nian Youyou? Forget it, they couldn't handle the state of their primordial spirits, so it had to be Zhongshan.

Although Zhongshan had extremely poor aptitude, she often revealed something strange.

She even knew an immortal. What did it mean to know an immortal? At least, it meant she wasn't as bad as she seemed on the surface. Therefore, Huiguang the Arhat rushed into Zhongshan's body at the fastest speed possible and headed towards the Niwan Palace.

But the moment Huiguang entered Zhongshan's body, tragedy struck. He couldn't move.

Why was this happening? What power was this? He was in the Huangji Realm, the Huangji Realm! What power could seal him? He had to go to the Niwan Palace; he had to go.

So what if he was in the Huangji Realm? What he faced was the Hongluan Scripture.

With a heart full of tears, he had to be pushed out of Zhongshan's body by her divine consciousness and then attacked by two powerful experts.

However, when Zhongshan's divine consciousness touched Huiguang's primordial spirit, something strange happened.

Instead of rejecting Huiguang, her divine consciousness pulled him into the Niwan Palace.

At this moment, Huiguang the Arhat had a very unreal feeling. Was Zhongshan seeking death? Was she courting disaster? Was her brain kicked by a donkey?

Who would pull the primordial spirit of someone in the Huangji Realm into the Niwan Palace? That was the most vulnerable place!

Since you're seeking death, then don't blame me.

With a hint of excitement, Huiguang the Arhat cooperated very well as Zhongshan pulled him into the Niwan Palace.

The moment he entered, Huiguang the Arhat heard a strange sound.

"Eeyaa~~~"

Suddenly, Huiguang the Arhat's primordial spirit shivered. Although he didn't know what was going on, a sense of impending death suddenly descended. The Niwan Palace? How could Zhongshan make such a sound?

Turning his head, he happened to see the divine consciousness "Eight Extreme Heavenly Tail".

Root consciousness? How could a Foundation Establishment cultivator have root consciousness?

Huiguang the Arhat only had time to show a hint of astonishment before being swallowed up by the Eight Extreme Heavenly Tail with a sudden opening of its mouth.
