163: Life Elixir

"Hello, my name is Jian Chen. I accidentally stumbled into this place, I hope you can forgive me!"

Xiao Xing reached out and lightly shook hands with Luo Xuan, then glanced around at his surroundings.

He was somewhat surprised; had the Elf Clan really declined to such a state?

All the elves here combined didn't even total 200 people.

According to some records, during the ancient era, the Elf Clan numbered in the hundreds of thousands. Because of their unique constitutions, adult elves were all very powerful.

But now, the strongest among them, Clan Leader Luo Xuan, only had the strength of a Demigod, while the younger elves were only around the level of top-tier experts.

"Haha, young hero Jian Chen, please follow us first. I'll introduce everyone to you in a bit."

After the greetings, Luo Xuan smiled slightly and made a gesturing motion, indicating for Xiao Xing to return with them first.

Seeing a human from the outside world enter, she was also very happy and wanted to host him properly.

Then let's go!

Before long, surrounded by the group, Xiao Xing arrived beneath an ancient tree.

The ancient trees here were of strange and varied shapes, and every trunk had bamboo shacks built upon it; this was where they lived.

"Little brother Jian Chen, please sit."

Luo Xuan led him to a table made of tree roots and gestured for Xiao Xing to sit down.

"Big brother, this is Morning Dew I collected myself. Try it and see if it tastes good."

...Brother Jian Chen, this is Spirit Dew I collected... Young hero, this is Life Spirit Liquid I brewed myself... Young hero, this is Magic Spirit Liquid I made myself... Seeing Xiao Xing sit down, Luo Glass was the first to hand over a prepared bamboo tube.

The others also scrambled to be first, extending their own bamboo tubes toward him.

They were not only kind-hearted but also very hospitable; they were incredibly curious about Xiao Xing's arrival.

A few bolder elves had already crowded around him, touching him here and there, wanting to see what kind of things he was wearing.

"Stop fooling around! Jian Chen is our first guest; how can he drink those things?"

Seeing everyone take out their bamboo tubes, Luo Xuan gave a scolding shout, then looked at an elf beside her and said:

"Luo Huan, go and bring out our treasured Divine Life Liquid. We must entertain young hero Jian Chen properly."

Hearing the Clan Leader's words, Luo Huan glanced at Xiao Xing and then quickly ran off to fetch the divine liquid.

She also thought the clothes Xiao Xing was wearing were very beautiful and had originally planned to come over and touch them, but since the Clan Leader had given her an order, she had to go get the item first.

"Clan Leader, there's no need to be so polite."

Seeing how enthusiastic everyone was, Xiao Xing took Luo Glass's bamboo tube and began to drink.

It was cool and slightly bitter upon entry, with the fresh taste of nature.

He had observed the bamboo tube just now; inside was dew collected by Luo Glass in the early morning. Consuming it could instantly restore 1,000 Health and Mana.

"Big brother, is it tasty?"

Luo Glass saw Xiao Xing drink her Morning Dew, her eyes watery as she revealed an expectant expression.

This was Morning Dew she had worked hard to collect, and she hoped to get big brother's approval; that would make her very happy.

"Thank you, little Luo Glass. It's very delicious."

Seeing her cute appearance, Xiao Xing pulled her into his arms and gave her a big kiss, praising her at the same time.

This little girl was not only cute but also very industrious; even at this hour, she had been out collecting dew earlier.

"Heehee, from now on, can Xiao Li collect Morning Dew for big brother to drink every day?"

Luo Glass didn't act like a stranger; having received approval, she tilted her small head and revealed a pure smile.

She was the first one to discover Xiao Xing, and after being held, she felt even closer to him.

"Alright, big brother will drink the Morning Dew Xiao Li collects every day."

After comforting her for a while, Xiao Xing continued to take the bamboo tubes from the others to taste.

After each tasting, regardless of whether it tasted good or not, he would offer words of praise.

The bamboo tubes contained various types of dew and spirit liquids, all of which were potions for instantaneous health and mana recovery.

These were all tokens of their goodwill; since everyone was so enthusiastic, he didn't feel right refusing them.

"Clan Leader, I've brought it!"

Just as Xiao Xing finished tasting everyone's bamboo tubes, Luo Huan ran over holding a large bamboo tube, her expression looking very joyful.

This was the finest treasure of the Elf Clan, and there wasn't much left now. If it weren't to entertain Xiao Xing, they wouldn't have been willing to bring it out at all.

"Little brother Jian Chen, try this and see if it's good!"

Luo Xuan nodded, took the large bamboo tube from Luo Huan's hands, and then handed it to Xiao Xing.

The Divine Life Liquid inside the bamboo tube was a treasure refined from the Spring of Life.

This was what they had saved from before; this was the last bit of Divine Life Liquid left in the clan.

Because they were sealed within the barrier, the Life Divine Tree could not absorb power from the outside world, resulting in it being unable to condense much of the Spring of Life.

"Thank you, everyone."

Xiao Xing took the bamboo tube and glanced inside; it was indeed Divine Life Liquid, but there were only 10 drops.

Divine Life Liquid (Divine-Grade Treasure)

Effect: Physique +100 after consumption.

Usage Limit: 10

Note: This is a treasure made by the Elf Clan using the Spring of Life; it can increase the maximum health limit.

Xiao Xing drank the Divine Life Liquid, and his Physique attribute increased by 1,000 points. Because of his equipment bonuses, his health increased by several tens of thousands.

He resisted the urge to use his amplification; since the Elf Clan could produce Divine Life Liquid, there was no rush.

The rewards for a Divine Rank Special Quest shouldn't be bad. If he used his Golden Finger now, he wouldn't be able to amplify anything else today.

"Thank you all for the hospitality. I wonder, what is the current situation of the Elf Clan?"

Having accepted the benefits, Xiao Xing began to bring up the main business.

The quest requirement was to help them break the Seal.

Although he already had a general understanding, with the Elf Clan's current strength, once the barrier was opened, they could easily be wiped out.

He saw the simplicity and kindness of the Elf Clan and hoped to help them more.

Furthermore, he had other objectives; he planned to have the Elf Clan settle in his city after he built it.

And not just the Elf Clan, but also the Divine Craftsman Clan, the Sea Demon Clan, and so on.

If he wanted to build an unprecedented city, adding more unique features was definitely the right move. If a city didn't have many highlights, why would players from the entire server come to your city?

"Little brother, you've seen the barrier above as well. We can never leave, and that includes you.

Since you've come here, we're all family from now on. Just stay here and live in peace; don't think too much."

Luo Xuan looked at the barrier above, her expression somewhat helpless.

She believed Xiao Xing had entered here by mistake, but she had no solution either.

This place was completely isolated. Even a God-level Expert couldn't break through the barrier; there was simply no way out.

It was because of this that the Divine Tree didn't have enough power to condense more elves, leading to their decline until only a bit over a hundred people remained.

"Clan Leader, is there really no way to get out?" Xiao Xing was somewhat puzzled.

This shouldn't be right. If there was no way out, wouldn't anyone who took this quest have their account effectively banned?

According to the grade of the barrier, it couldn't be destroyed without a Pseudo-Super Divine Skill or a Pseudo-Super Divine Artifact.

The quest scroll appeared in a Level 60 map, which proved that Level 60 players had a chance to complete it.

But it was almost impossible for a Level 60 to obtain a Pseudo-Super Divine Artifact; after all, not everyone could use cheats like him.

Moreover, were the super experts of the Elf Clan brainless? If they sealed themselves off completely, how was that any different from exterminating their own race?
