Chapter 397: Life-prolonging Potion
Dragon nodded and said, “We have already thought about this. However, we’ll be ready for anything this time!”
Dragon nodded and then continued, “This time, it’s not just us. There will also be other forces involved, meaning many other experts will be there. I won’t hide it from Mister Lu; someone wants to use the Jia Dragon’s blood to create a potion that will make them live longer!”
When Lu Xuan heard this, many sharp lights burst out from his eyes. In the end, they had still arrived at this step.
In his previous life, he had heard that many consortia around the world had set up laboratories for the study of longevity.
It was said that before the revival of spirit qi, they had only studied how to prolong the breeding life as long as possible within the limits of human life.
In theory, human beings could live up to 120 years old. However, for various reasons, human beings tend to only live to 70 years old, even if they lived a long life. Therefore, these laboratories had been studying ways for humans to live longer.
It was said that there had been great achievements. Many financial groups had invested billions or even tens of billions of yuan into the research efforts each year.
Many rich people had lived much longer because all these achievements were applied to them.
In the past, human lifespans were considered equal among the social classes. However, it had become unequal since the rise of science and technology.
After the revival of spirit qi, the scope of their research had changed from prolonging to longevity.
In terms of the theory of cultivation, it would be constantly completing a self-transformation. With each transformation, a person’s life expectancy would increase significantly. For example, it was very easy for an expert in the Airborne Realm to live up to more than 100 years old. They might even easily live to be more than 120 years old.
As for those experts in the higher level, the Divine Treasure Realm, they could easily live up to more than 200 years old. Over time, it would become more profound, and the limit of human life in the Divine Treasure Realm could even increase to more than 500 years.
If they used some secret techniques to sleep, they may even exceed this number.
As for those powerful people supporting the world, they all wanted to live forever. If people could live a good life, then no one would want to die.
In the ancient rumors, dragon blood could be used to create potions of longevity. Of course, this so-called longevity was to live for only a few decades. However, it was already precious for those rich and powerful people.
As long as they could continue to live, they were willing to give up anything.
This was the case not only in Huaxia but also in the whole world!
Behind the Special Task Force was such a behemoth longing for longevity. Because they were incredibly wealthy, Dragon was willing to let Lu Xuan state his own terms.
As long as they could do it, they were willing to give anything.
People within later generations were not worth mentioning in front of the real experts, but they were still considered to be the real masters in the current world.
There were also all kinds of fights among themselves, but as long as it was what they wanted, there was pretty much nothing they could not get.
Of course, there were always individuals in the world that did not care about their influence. Lu Xuan was one such person.
Lu Xuan was very powerful, so the whole world had to avoid him. Unless they were crazy enough to bombard him with nuclear bombs, even those rich and powerful people behind the scenes would have no other choice but to be polite towards Lu Xuan.
“Someone still has such an idea in this world!” Lu Xuan said faintly.
Lu Xuan had remembered some of the rumors from his previous life, as well as the ugly faces of some of the rich and powerful people.
Lu Xuan looked at Dragon with a meaningful look and said, “However, these things are ultimately unethical. I advise Chief Dragon not to touch them. Even if a potion to increase one’s lifespan has been created, the Myriad Demon Valley will not give up. Although such a potion sounds good, one must have a life to enjoy.”
Dragon knitted his eyebrows together before he understood the meaning of Lu Xuan’s words. Even if they made the so-called life-prolonging potion, there would most likely be a strong after-effect if they only relied on the essence of the Jiao Dragon Ao Fan.
The Myriad Demon Valley would never give up. With the powerful strength of the Myriad Demon Valley, anyone who dared to have any ideas against them was guaranteed to die unless they possessed the same powers as Lu Xuan.
As for Lu Xuan himself who was so powerful, he did not want the so-called life-prolonging potion.
“I understand, but this so-called longevity potion is only one part of a huge scientific research project or even a by-product of that plan. It is just meeting some of the requirements of the financial supporters along the way!” The dragon said.
Even with the strength of the Special Task Force, it would be impossible to go against the will of the rich and powerful people.
If the Special Task Force did not do this, others would naturally rush to do so.
The Special Task Force did not have to fully handle the matter. It was only because Dragon and Lu Xuan had somewhat a bit of connection that Dragon was able to get those corpses from Lu Xuan’s hands.
Because of this, he especially envied Lu Xuan. With his strength, he did not care what those people thought. Lu Xuan could’ve even killed them all if he so desired.
This was what it truly meant to be unrestrained.
“Aside from this, I also have another purpose. This time, I came on behalf of the leaders to ask Mister Lu something: What kind of force is that Myriad Demon Valley, and how strong are they? Does Mister Lu have the confidence to fight against them?” Dragon said solemnly.
The matter earlier was just a minor issue. This was the real reason why he had come to the Yunxuan Villa.
“The Myriad Demon Valley is very powerful. You guys should know from the name that it was set up by many demons, and their leader is an old dragon. You must have some impressions of them by now!” Lu Xuan said.
Dragon’s expression looked serious. He had a lot of impressions of the old dragon. The power of the old dragon seen from the satellite images and videos taken by cultivators had simply exceeded their expectations.
Even Lu Xuan, who was currently the top expert in the world, had struggled to cope with it. Although Lu Xuan had been able to cut off the old dragon’s finger with that amazing blade attack, everyone was able to tell.
Lu Xuan was probably no match for that old dragon!
Fortunately, there didn’t seem to be much of a difference between the strength of the two sides.
Otherwise, the powers in the entire Zhongnanhai, or even in the entire world, would be alarmed.
“Not only do I have a bit of an impression, but it is also simply terrifying. Had we not seen it with our own eyes, we wouldn’t have dared to imagine that there would be such a monster in the world!” Dragon said, his voice full of emotion. “Now I know why those obstinate and unruly demons had succumbed to the same power!”
Initially, people wondered why these demons had succumbed to the same place.
Now, they all understood that there was such a terrifying existence behind it. Everything now made sense.
That old dragon was too strong!
