Wandering Gods of Day and Night-Chapter 1117 - 431: Green and Red Fish (Part 2)

Social dead!

It truly was social death; at this moment, he even wished he were truly dead.

The onlookers were all laughing cheerfully.

And Li Changxun, being someone who delights in watching the commotion, shouted at Alchemist Bai Lu, "You did it! You did it! Lord Deer, you did it."

"I didn’t do it..."

Alchemist Bai Lu blushed with embarrassment. His boastful words about achieving "Can Tongqi success" became sharp boomerangs, precisely hitting him, a smack to the face.

After some laughter and teasing toward Alchemist Bai Lu, they didn’t continue to mock him—after all, it was just "Alchemy Master’s" daydream.

The tower pushing continued, with Zhou Xuan standing with folded hands, gazing from afar, acting as a supervisor.

To say the least, Alchemist Bai Lu’s attitude towards Zhou Xuan had completely changed,

In his eyes, this grand gentleman was both scheming and resourceful. He leaned closer and whispered, "Great sir, I promised you before, you helped me reclaim White Deer Mountain, and I will teach you the art of alchemy. I will certainly keep my promise."

"Lao Bai, that Fish Monk, resurrecting family members, relied on Human Pills. Are Human Pills really so mystical? Able to revive the dead, flesh out white bones?"

Alchemist Bai Lu laughed and said, "It’s not the Human Pills that are mystical, but this twenty-first Zen is quite mystical."

"How so?"

Zhou Xuan asked.

Alchemist Bai Lu said, "Have you heard, great sir, that even the Ancient Buddha once practiced alchemy?"

"I’ve heard."

Zhou Xuan replied.

He had heard from Wu Ya Zen that after meeting the Tao Ancestor, the Ancient Buddha developed a fascination with Taoist Technique for a long time, then started refining elixirs, wearing a Daoist robe, and reciting Taoist Scriptures.

"Not only that."

Alchemist Bai Lu said, "The Tao Ancestor also gifted the Ancient Buddha two large fish of green and red—being from the Buddhist Sect, how could he refine elixirs? They were refined by those two fish."

"The green one is called ’Cloud Rain,’ the red one ’Dragon Transformation.’ The Red Dragon is a fierce fish, feeds on humans, while Cloud Rain is a benevolent fish, feeds on heavenly essences and earthly dews."

Like counting his treasures, Alchemist Bai Lu said, "These two fish are the Dan Ancestor of the world; the Red Fish refines Human Pills, the Green Fish refines Qi Pills,

Later, the Ancient Buddha had an epiphany and fused the Twin Fish into a fish called ’Six Desires Zen.’"

"So, you’re saying, that’s how Fish Monk came to be? Is he really the Dan Ancestor of the world?"

Zhou Xuan continued, "But that’s strange, isn’t it? Being the Dan Ancestor of the world, his elixirs should be formidable, so how did he end up spending over a thousand years just making elixirs for Li Shanzu?"

"Achoo."

Li Changxun, who was pushing the tower in the distance, turned back and sneezed, "Why does it feel like someone’s cursing me?"

Alchemist Bai Lu laughed carefreely, "Great sir, refining elixirs isn’t just about having enough skill and knowledge. One must monitor the furnace’s temperature daily and constantly observe changes in the elixir. It’s mentally exhausting; one furnace of elixir is like a baby that requires careful attention,

That Fish Monk, though skilled, can’t produce good elixirs over the long term with such laziness."

As Zhou Xuan listened to this, gazing at Fish Monk, he murmured, "Green and Red Fish..."

If the Green and Red Fish are the Dan Ancestors, then if he could obtain them, Zhou Xuan’s ambitions in the alchemy trade would be tremendous.

However, these two fish belong to the "Six Desires Zen," and have little to do with him.

"Fish Monk, what a waste of good things."

After saying this, Zhou Xuan got up to check on the tower pushing progress again, but at this time, he failed to notice... 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

...that Fish Monk’s previously paralyzed body somehow changed direction, with the Fish Head’s top pointed straight at his back...

...

"Boom-boom-boom, boom-boom-boom."

"Everyone clear out! The tower is falling."

After Li Changxun shouted, the Mahayana Tower, tormented by numerous highly esteemed individuals, finally crumbled.

The massive tower body crashed into the mountain, raising a thick cloud of dust that choked everyone.

When the dust settled, they all saw a bottomless pit.

Within the pit was a vast, extinguished furnace, filled with countless scattered white bones, so numerous to be uncountable,

Anyway, Zhou Xuan, with one quick glance, saw patches of white gray, piercing his eyes painfully.

With just a glance, Alchemist Bai Lu shivered and said, "Great sir, these remains are the residues left after Demon Monk refined them for elixirs, and judging by the thickness of the ’Ash Shell’ in the furnace, it hasn’t been cleared for just a hundred years."

"In just a century, so many people were refined to death... having the Demon Monk torn to pieces wouldn’t be excessive." Lu Xingzhou was so furious he almost ground his teeth to breaking point.

"There’s still movement."

Zhou Xuan’s ears were exceptionally sharp, capturing a "rustling" sound, like some sharp claws inadvertently scratching against the green bricks,

Glancing at the furnace in the depths of White Deer Mountain, confirming the sound wasn’t from within, he immediately turned his head and fixed his gaze on the base of the "Mahayana Tower."

After the giant tower collapsed, a dome-like structure was revealed at its base, and upon closer inspection, he found it resembled a parasitic tumor on the tower.

"Mr. Lu, there."

Zhou Xuan pointed towards the tumor on the tower, and Lu Xingzhou, understanding, summoned a wave and surged towards the tumor.

"Boom!"

A forceful wave crashed into the enormous tumor on the tower, creating a hole, and various human limbs, fresh carcasses flowed out,

an overwhelming stench assailed their noses.
