There are not many rules for the apprenticeship banquet, not to mention that Gu Dan is now qualified to break free from some of the constraints of the rules. It is a time of great glory. No one dares to give him a hard time at this time, not even a Nascent Soul Master would do that.
After all, even the leader of the Changsheng Sect, Lu Zhiming, treats him as a treasure, so it is natural that others will obey him obediently.
Therefore, the overall atmosphere of the apprenticeship banquet was quite cheerful.
"Junior brother, I am also preparing to advance to the Nascent Soul stage!"
Lu Lingyin had become drunk without her knowing. She was the daughter of Lu Zhiming and had grown up in the Changsheng Sect. She was familiar with many Nascent Soul masters.
After wandering around there, I drank several cups of wine.
The wine that Yuanying Venerable drinks is naturally different from that of others - it is not that the Changsheng Sect insists on treating people differently, but that people in different realms taste different.
It is just like no matter how strong the wine in the mortal world is, it is impossible to get a foundation-building cultivator drunk.
Even the finest liquor could hardly make a Nascent Soul Master feel intoxicated.
But if you're not drunk, it's almost the same as drinking water.
In order to solve this problem, it is inevitable that a special elixir called "Zui Cang Tian" will be added to the wine that Yuanying Venerable drinks.
This stuff directly targets the soul of the cultivator. Otherwise, with the physical fitness of a Nascent Soul cultivator improved by practice, it would be impossible for him to get drunk even if he drank buckets of it.
The effect of Zui Cang Tian itself is not particularly strong, and it is impossible to really "get a Yuanying Venerable drunk", but it is enough to make a Yuanying Venerable feel "drunk", just like drinking alcohol in the mortal world, and it can also be enjoyable.
It’s just that a Nascent Soul cultivator can easily dispel the drunkenness that is entangled in his soul. It is just the difference between wanting it and not wanting it. But it is not so easy for a Golden Core cultivator.
Maybe he would have to sit cross-legged in meditation for an hour or two, and if he drank too much, it would be normal to be drunk for three to five days.
Lu Lingyin was of course extremely safe in the Changsheng Sect's territory, so she did not restrain herself too much. After contentedly drinking with everyone, she walked over to Gu Dan, already drunk.
"As expected of you, you are the senior sister. You really need to be one step faster than me."
Gu Dan congratulated with a smile.
"Well, of course!"
Lu Lingyin put her hands on her hips, looking quite happy, with a bright smile on her pretty face, "Don't worry, after I advance to the Nascent Soul stage, I will definitely protect you! If anyone bullies you, just tell me!"
She was really a little drunk. When she spoke, her neat white teeth were exposed, and even her voice seemed a little jumpy and lively.
"Sister Lu, don't just look at Junior Brother, there are also us!"
Ying Yaoyao waved at her, of course they knew each other.
In terms of fame alone, the Holy Maiden Tianji is definitely better, but Lu Lingyin is only slightly inferior, and can be regarded as the second tier after these most shining geniuses.
What's more, the higher the level of cultivation, the fewer Kun cultivators there are, and the more contacts and intersections there are between them.
"Hey, Yao Yao!"
Lu Lingyin rushed over and hugged her tightly.
However, due to the heavenly punishment, Ying Yaoyao almost turned into a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, even her height, except for some things that are inconvenient to mention.
So when Lu Lingyin hugged Ying Yaoyao's head, she directly held it in her arms, covering it tightly.
"Hmm~"
Ying Yaoyao struggled hard in her arms, resisting this brutality.
This is too much!
Didn't she?
Not only is there, but it’s very big!
After three or five breaths, Ying Yaoyao finally broke free from Lu Lingyin's control and said indignantly: "Sister Lu, you've drunk too much."
"Where is that?"
Lu Lingyin shook her head very confidently. Her two delicate hands unconsciously climbed onto Ying Yaoyao's cute little face with baby fat. She smiled and pinched it, saying like coaxing a child, "Yaoyao is so cute. Let me pinch it for you."
Ying Yaoyao's face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye. He stared at the rosy face angrily, as if he was considering whether he should suffocate her to make her sober up.
Gu Dan: “.”
He never expected that this 'senior sister' he picked up for free was actually a drunkard.
But he is a man after all. No matter what their relationship is, it is not appropriate for him to interfere in the communication between the two sisters. Keeping silent is the wise choice at this time.
Fortunately, the Holy Maiden of Hehuan, Luo Qingyin, saw that the situation was not good and took the initiative to step forward. Her clear and pleasant voice, like pearls falling on a jade plate, sounded like a piece of music, "Sister Lu, it's been a long time since we last met. How are you doing?"
There seemed to be some special power in her voice. The spiritual essence that was revealed surged slightly for a moment, and the originally drunk Lu Lingyin really became a lot more sober.
Zui Cang Tian is certainly not unsolvable, and it is even more impossible for its effect to be so strong that it defies the heavens, otherwise why would it be used to make wine? Wouldn't poisoning be better?
As the Holy Maiden of Hehuan, of course she has the means to resolve this kind of trouble.
But even though the drunkenness had faded a little, Lu Lingyin was still exceptionally bold. She stared at Luo Qingyin as if she had found a new target, and said something shocking, "Sister Luo, what do you think of my junior brother?"
Gu Dan, who was drinking alone and pretending not to see anything, almost accidentally spit out the wine that was at his mouth.
I really didn't expect that Lu Lingyin would be in this state after drinking.
Fortunately, Luo Qingyin looked calm. Saint Hehuan had seen all kinds of storms and her mentality was definitely not that of an ordinary person. She said without any hesitation, "You are the leader of the geniuses. Why do you need other people's comments?"
"Isn't the leader of the Tianjiao evaluated by others?"
Lu Lingyin was unwilling to let her go, and pressed on, "What do you think, Sister Luo? There are no outsiders here, so you can just explain it more clearly!"
"Other people's words are just passing clouds. To be content with oneself and not be disturbed by external things is the true practice."
Luo Qingyin was on high alert and had an exceptionally high EQ, neither offending anyone nor making any serious "comments".
It is impossible to scold her, because she has no grudge against Kong Zhai. On the contrary, there is a little bit of fate between them.
But if I were to brag about it, once the news got out to the outside world, I’m afraid I wouldn’t know what public opinion would be like.
After all, the most shining cultivator in Yuantian Realm now is Gu Dan. It just so happens that she is about to be promoted to the Nascent Soul stage. No matter what she says at this time, it is inevitable that the meaning will change.
"Senior sister is a little drunk, I'll take you back to rest."
At this time, Gu Dan could no longer pretend that he heard nothing. He hurried forward, condensed his spiritual energy into a shape of hand, and supported Lu Lingyin.
"I don't want to rest."
Lu Lingyin was dissatisfied and wanted to say something.
But Gu Dan didn't give her that chance. With a wave of his hand, a soundproofing formation was formed. The spiritual energy forcefully suppressed the senior sister who was a little "drunk and crazy", and he took her to the master helplessly.
"What's going on?"
Shen Jiangyue was also a little drunk. Looking at Lu Lingyin who seemed to be being escorted, his eyes and brows were still exceptionally calm, as if he had expected it.
Coming before his master, Gu Dan naturally let go of his restraint.
Then Lu Lingyin ran into Shen Jiangyue's arms like a wild horse, wrapped her arms around her waist, and said pitifully: "Master, my junior brother bullied me, he is bad!"
"Okay, okay, Master, I'll take care of him later, okay?"
Shen Jiangyue rubbed her head, glanced at Gu Dan with a smile, and a voice transmission reached his ears, "Go and have fun by yourself. This is what your senior sister does when she's drunk. Remember not to go drink with her in the future."
"Thank you for your help, Master."
Gu Dan nodded awkwardly but politely and ran away quickly.
He was not good at dealing with drunk women, not to mention that this was the Changsheng Sect. Even without considering Lu Lingyin's identity, she was a little older than him in terms of seniority, and she was also his senior sister. It was very dangerous to knock her out, so it would be safer to leave it to his master.
However, after Lu Lingyin's disturbance, the remaining few people no longer had much interest in continuing drinking - if a few more of them got drunk, it would be even more difficult to deal with.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
So we just called it a day. The formalities had already been completed, and the previous celebration had lasted for more than a month. We had said everything we needed to say and talked about, and there was nothing left to talk about at this time.
Three days passed in a flash, and Gu Dan's apprenticeship banquet finally came to an end. During this period, he received many gifts, including some things that were of great benefit to Jindan cultivators, but the most precious ones were undoubtedly the eleven medicinal herbs in total, including the three sent by the Changsheng Sect.
It can be said that this apprenticeship banquet made Gu Dan's wealth leap into the forefront of senior Yuanying masters. If the value of the cave and green mountains is also taken into account, wow! Except for the sect master, few people can compare with him.
The words fame and fortune are always connected. When he has proven his strength, people will rush to offer him all kinds of benefits without him having to ask for anything.
If you don't make friends with people when they are just starting out, things will be completely different when they really grow up.
However, Gu Dan had no interest in these things, including the gifts sent by the Nascent Soul Masters. He asked the three little guys to help collect them and had never even taken a look at them.
When the apprenticeship banquet was over, Lu Lingyin, who had sobered up, ran to Gu Dan to apologize, "Junior brother, I'm really sorry. It was a big day a few days ago, and I accidentally drank too much and said something rude."
"where?"
Gu Dan looked confused, "Did you remember it wrongly, Senior Sister?"
"Um?"
Lu Lingyin was also stunned.
No? "I just remember my senior sister and I congratulated him, and everyone was very happy."
Gu Dan was talking nonsense in a serious tone.
"Yeah?"
Lu Lingyin breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and said happily: "That's good! I'll go drink with my junior brother later! When I drink with others, they always say that I'm drunk and messing around."
Gu Dan's mouth twitched, and he said, "Well, that shouldn't be the case. But Junior Brother will also start practicing soon. If you have time later, I will definitely accompany Senior Sister to have a few drinks."
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Lu Lingyin was very satisfied and finally let him go.
After returning to Qingshan, the three little guys who had been busy at the apprenticeship banquet began to practice again, just like real ascetic monks.
As they said, time waits for no one. They are free to choose how to spend their time, but Yundao Tianhe will not deliberately wait for them to grow.
If you don't seize the time to practice now, it will be useless to regret it later.
Just as Gu Dan was about to wake up the three little guys, Shen Jiangyue suddenly walked out of the room and came to him.
"These three little guys are really hardworking."
Shen Jiangyue said meaningfully.
"Yes, they are all my descendants."
Gu Dan nodded affirmatively.
"There is one thing you probably don't know yet."
Shen Jiangyue didn't waste any words and went straight to the point. "Have you heard of Creation Spiritual Energy?"
"Creation Spiritual Energy?!"
A rare look of surprise appeared on Gu Dan's face.
Of course he had heard of this thing! Not only had he heard of it, he had even used it.
Thinking about it now, it was the time in Ningfang in the Buzhou Mountains. At that time, Huang Chao was probably possessed by Venerable Bai Lian, or at least affected.
The so-called spiritual energy of creation was nothing but a lie, and was most likely one of the seeds of possession. He had almost no hesitation at the time and chose to disperse his power and start over again. He left the Buzhou Mountains with Zhuang Sheng, and it was impossible for him not to have a deep memory of it.
That was the first time that he had accurately stepped on the backup plan left by the old scoundrel. He even suspected that the reason why Venerable Bai Lian could find him later was partly due to that "spiritual energy of destiny".
"Have you heard of it?"
Shen Jiangyue noticed that there was something wrong with Gu Dan's expression.
"What I have heard may be different from what Master said. Master, please tell me in detail."
Gu Dan thought for a moment and said.
Venerable Bai Lian is, after all, a senior Nascent Soul cultivator. The so-called "spiritual energy of creation" should not be something he brags about casually, but a real thing in the world of immortal cultivation, and he just borrowed the name for it.
"The spiritual energy of creation is the companion of the supreme spiritual veins. It is the most refined spiritual energy between heaven and earth. Any cultivator who absorbs it will not damage his own foundation. It is far better than any 'magic medicine' and is a gift from heaven and earth."
Shen Jiangyue said bluntly: "However, this kind of thing is naturally only available when the top-grade spiritual vein is just born. And it will never regenerate, and the more you use it, the less it will be. Your cave residence Qingshan is one of the intersections of the top-grade spiritual veins, and it can also extract the spiritual energy that belongs only to you. This is also the intention of the sect master.
According to past experience, the spiritual energy extracted from a node is enough to support a cultivator who has just reached the Golden Core stage and can reach the Nascent Soul stage directly - so you know why the nine major immortal sects are unwilling to let go of the top-grade spiritual veins, right? Even if it is a bonus, it can give birth to several beings close to the Nascent Soul stage. "
This was the first time that Gu Dan knew this.
"The cave and green mountains are yours, and the spiritual energy of creation also belongs to you. How to use it is your business. When you have thought it through, you can come to me and Master will help you extract it."
Shen Jiangyue nodded, said no more, and left.
After a brief thought, Gu Dan woke up the three little guys who were practicing.
"Everyone, wake up. After Zhuang Yun's wedding, I have another gift for you." (End of this chapter)
