73: Celestial Wine

[Third cast, fishing successful. Obtained a jar of fine wine from the Immortal Realm.]

Within a certain part of the Immortal Realm.

A monkey, dead drunk, was wreaking havoc at a banquet. Tables and chairs were overturned, countless fruits rolled across the floor, and fine wines and delicacies were scattered everywhere.

A perfectly good banquet was ruined just like that.

And right at this moment.

A silk thread appeared from the Void Realm.

It wrapped around a jar of fine wine and disappeared into the air.

No one saw it.

[Immortal Realm Fine Wine: Heartlessly abandoned by a monkey wreaking havoc in the heavens. Fortunately, it was obtained by the Host; otherwise, it would truly be a waste of a heavenly treasure. To waste is shameful. This wine is infinitely delicious; a single sip can increase a Mortal's Lifespan by a thousand years and forge immortal bones.]

It was actually Immortal wine from the Immortal Realm.

I just don't know if this monkey is that certain Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

Whatever.

This is the first time I've fished up a treasure belonging to the Immortal Realm.

Keep up the good work.

The next supreme treasure of the Immortal Realm isn't far off.

"Sigh, why do I suddenly miss the bond return system a little?"

As if proving the saying: the more you despised it before, the more you appreciate it now.

With a hundredfold bond rebate, this jar of ordinary Immortal wine would have become a rare vintage.

Li Changsheng impatiently picked up the wine and took a sip.

"Good wine."

The wine went down.

Immediately, he felt a warm aura continuously washing over his body, starting with his vitality.

The Golden Core Realm grants five hundred years.

But Li Changsheng felt that since he had unintentionally condensed a Cosmic Golden Core and then cultivated the Indestructible Immortal Art, his Lifespan was definitely more than five hundred years—it should be around one thousand two hundred years.

Suddenly increasing by another thousand years.

He could naturally sense it clearly.

As for forging immortal bones, it was like throwing a small pebble into the ocean; not even a ripple was made.

"Mmm, smells good."

Just then, Zhang Wangu rubbed his nose and appeared out of nowhere.

"Kid, what are you holding in your hand?"

"Poisoned wine, definitely don't drink it. It'll kill you. Hurry, give it to me, I'll help you throw it away."

Li Changsheng rolled his eyes and said irritably, "So this is poisoned wine? You make a lot of sense. I can't harm anyone. I'll just throw this poisoned wine away myself; don't trouble yourself."

As he spoke.

He directly threw the wine in his hand away.

"Don't throw it!"

Zhang Wangu was startled and grew frantic. "How could you just throw it away?"

Fortunately, his reactions were fast.

He instantly appeared in front of the wine, hugged it to his chest, and checked it himself.

"Good, it didn't break. Close, that was so close."

Li Changsheng suddenly felt an urge to laugh. "Old man, what are you doing? Hurry up and throw it away. This is poisoned wine; even an Immortal would be poisoned. After drinking it, you'll feel light-headed and fall into a deep sleep."

Zhang Wangu took a deep breath and said, "Precisely because it's poisoned wine, you can't just throw it anywhere. Kid, don't worry, I'll help you handle this deadly poison."

"Hahaha."

Fine.

Li Changsheng really couldn't hold it in anymore.

He shook his head and said, "Old man, are you here to be a comedian?"

"Poisoned wine, my foot. This is clearly fine wine from the Immortal Realm, yet in your mouth, it's become poisoned wine. If you want to drink, just drink."

"To be honest, the effects of this wine are indeed extraordinary, but I can't say the same for the taste."

Back on Blue Star.

Whether it was Moutai or Wuliangye, weren't they all better than this?

Of course.

Moutai and Wuliangye were Acquired, turbid things, brewed from ordinary Mortal grains. The taste was right, and the brewing process was right, but they had zero Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

This fine wine from the Immortal Realm contained immortal spiritual power, and while it was described as delicious beyond compare, it actually just had a fruity fragrance.

In Li Changsheng's view, it was just so-so.

The first sip.

Increased Lifespan by a thousand years and forged immortal bones.

The second sip.

Had no effect at all.

But to Zhang Wangu, a Tribulation Crossing Ancestor who had never tasted Moutai or Wuliangye, it was a legendary brew, nectar of the gods.

Zhang Wangu's thoughts were exposed by Li Changsheng, making him feel incredibly embarrassed. He smiled wryly and said, "Kid, I was just joking. Don't take it seriously."

Li Changsheng stood up, stretched, and said, "I was joking too."

"However, old man, it seems you still have some misgivings about my suggestion yesterday."

"It's understandable. You're a dignified Tribulation Crossing Ancestor; being my subordinate must feel humiliating."

"In that case, return the lightning rod to me and leave."

While subduing Zhang Wangu was good.

If he didn't want to follow him.

He had Li Kongkong by his side anyway.

And he had so many Systems.

A life with cheats needs no explanation. Right now, it might seem like Zhang Wangu submitting to him brings many benefits, but he believed it wouldn't be much of a deal before long.

It had been nearly four months since he obtained the myriad heavens and worlds fishing system.

The so-called one-System-per-year.

It wasn't just some small cultivation assistance.

The greatest benefit of the bond rebate was the Indestructible Immortal Art.

He wondered what this myriad heavens and worlds fishing system would bring.

Tianqi Continent.

Li Changsheng's departure.

Many trial-takers.

Also dispersed.

Clearing the dungeon and wiping out the entire City Lord's Manor—they didn't have the confidence to pull that off.

For Li Changsheng, the slaughter was only the beginning.

Just like Ye Fan, he was only level eighty or so.

Chu Qingdi was already an exception.

Great Qian Dynasty.

Li Qingyue cleared the Corpse King Cave dungeon and claimed the completion rewards. Her cultivation reached the twelfth level of Qi Refining, and after a year of development, the Great Qian Dynasty had reached its peak.

Numerous Jianghu forces and martial arts experts from various sides, upon learning of the existence of Immortal cultivation methods.

All requested to join the imperial court.

Dalin Temple, Wugong Mountain, and the Demon Sect were the three strongest forces. Dalin Temple was destroyed, and the Buddhist sects suffered a massive blow.

The extermination of Buddhism.

This was punishment for Xuande's support of the Prince of Zhenbei.

Although the Buddhist sects were unwilling, they were helpless.

To the victor go the spoils; their resentment could only be vented on Dalin Temple.

Wugong Mountain and the Demon Sect also gradually declined.

Everyone took pride in joining the Great Qian Dynasty.

Because only by becoming a citizen of the Great Qian Dynasty could one be qualified to Cultivate for Immortal Ascension.

The morning court session.

Li Qingyue made a major decision to purge the alien races, completely eliminating the hidden threats to the Great Qian Dynasty and avenging the soldiers of past dynasties who died resisting them.

Those who are not of our kin are sure to have different hearts.

The alien races—men, women, old, and young—none were to be left alive.

At this time, Li Qingyue's prestige was unmatched. With one command, the entire Great Qian Dynasty went into action.

Clearing the dungeon was just a catalyst.

After a busy day.

Her next step.

Was to choose a second dungeon to clear.

She knew Li Changsheng was clearing the Underground City world, so she bypassed the Beast Forest and Abyss World to enter the Underground City world directly.

A newcomer of level eighty or so.

Just as Li Qingyue entered the Underground City, she encountered trouble.

Although she was in the Tianqi Continent.

She wasn't like the other Children of Destiny who were favored by fate with orderly legacies and powerful opportunities. Her main Cultivation Technique was only an Earth-Grade technique like the Great Qian Primordial Supreme Saint Art.
