Chapter 36 Celebration Banquet

Nanwang put the gifts into the storage bag and walked back to the outer door in a daze.

"Nanwang!!!"

An angry roar came from far away. It was Luo Xuyou who was waiting to block Nanwang on the road. Next to him stood Yuan He who also had a sullen look on his face.

"How can you be a brother? It's fine if you don't tell the truth, but you broke my realm and caused my cultivation to regress a level. If I don't kill you today, I will..."

"Wait wait wait, I have something for you!"

Nanwang had anticipated this, so he made preparations in advance.

"You can't escape this beating no matter what you give me!"

Luo Xuyou said angrily.

Nan Wang said with embarrassment: "Forget it, I'm already in the Qi Refining Stage, and you were only at the seventh level of the Body Refining Stage, and you've regressed a level to only the sixth level. I'm afraid that I won't be able to control my strength when defending and you'll hurt me again..."

"???"

Luo Xuyou rolled up his sleeves:

"If I don't beat you till you cry for your parents today, I won't be named Luo!"

"Just calm down. I really have something to give you. I guarantee you won't be angry anymore once you take a look at it."

Nan Wang took out a bottle of pills and shook it in front of Luo Xuyou.

Luo Xuyou was so angry that he couldn't figure out what this thing was, but Yuan He next to him reacted.

"Wait a minute, Brother Luo! This seems to be the bottle of poison that Second Senior Brother gave me last time... No, it's a Qi Condensation Pill!"

"Yes, it was Second Senior Brother's Qi Condensation Pill. I didn't expect it to be a real Qi Condensation Pill. I was too petty and thought Second Senior Brother gave me poison. Sigh."

Nan Wang opened the bottle cap and poured all the pills into his palm.

There are six pills in total, and each one is a top-grade Qi Condensation Pill.

Although top-grade elixirs do not have the rule of only being refined one at a time like immortal elixirs, they are still produced one by one in most cases. It takes a lot of effort to refine six top-grade Qi Condensation Pills.

Although Chu Songping's words were irritating, his grasp of the elixir would never make a mistake.

Since he gave six, it means that Nan Wang might really need to take six Qi Condensation Pills to successfully break through the Qi Refining stage.

This is when the benefits of the elixir come into play. The effect that can only be achieved with six top-grade elixirs can be achieved with just one elixir.

All medicines are poisonous to some extent. All elixirs are inevitably poisonous. Excessive use of elixirs will cause the poison to accumulate in the body, and these poisons will deal a fatal blow to the cultivator when he breaks through.

Compared to ordinary elixirs, elixirs have almost no toxicity and the required amount is extremely small. They are the most perfect means of all to improve one's cultivation. The only drawback is probably that elixirs are too precious and can only be found by chance.

Now Nan Wang has already broken through to the Qi Refining stage with the help of elixirs, so these high-grade Qi Condensation Pills in his hand are useless.

Just right for his little friends.

Nanwang stuffed the pills into his friends' hands and said sincerely, "Each of you take three pills and practice well. When the elders of each sect come back, we will all join the inner sect together!"

Yuan He was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes: "Brother Nan! I will never bet against you again!"

Luo Xuyou even performed a unique face-changing skill on the spot: "Dad! You are my real dad! You are the one who truly brings prosperity to all your family members!"

Nanwang waved his hands and said, "No need for the formalities. Let's go. Let's not stand here blocking the road. Let's go to my room and talk."

The three of them then put aside their past grudges and walked up the Dragon Stairs in a lively and noisy manner.

When he arrived at the place, Nan Wang was surprised to find that there was an acquaintance standing at his door.

"Junior brother!" Gu Shanshi walked towards Nanwang quickly, "Congratulations, Junior brother, for breaking through the Qi Refining Stage! I thought it would take some time for Junior brother to complete the Path to Dragon Ascension, but I didn't expect Junior brother to practice so fast. It's really me who was ignorant and misjudged Junior brother's talent!"

"That's not the case! Senior brother, you are too kind..." Nan Wang stammered, "I just, I just... I am lucky, that's all."

It had been less than two months since I last saw him when I left Gushan.

For a cultivator, such a short period of time is nothing more than a snap of the fingers, passing in a flash.

Who could have imagined that Nanwang's cultivation was so unique, that he didn't practice outer cultivation for ten years and yet broke through to the Qi refining stage overnight?

Not to mention others, even Nan Wang himself couldn't think of it.

Gu Shanshi said: "I wanted to have a good chat with you today, but I just received an emergency order from the senior sister to summon all inner disciples, so I have to leave now. It's really unfortunate... I'm sorry, junior brother, it's urgent, I will come to congratulate you later!"

"It's alright, Senior Brother. Go ahead and do your work. I'm not in a hurry. I have plenty of time."

Nanwang smiled slightly and said with longing on his face:

"Every time a disciple from the outer sect is promoted to the inner sect, a celebration banquet is held to celebrate. I have been eyeing this for ten years. This time it is finally my turn. When the time comes, senior brother, you must show me your kindness."

"Okay, okay! Just write to me and I'll come!"

Gu Shanshi accepted Nanwang's celebration banquet and turned around to leave.

He really received a call from the senior sister and needed to return to the Sword Sect to gather immediately.

The highest level transfer order, a matter of utmost urgency.

If Nanwang had come back half an incense stick later, he would not have been able to see him at all.

only……

Gu Shan heard Nan Wang excitedly talking to his friends about the celebration banquet, and his words seemed to mention "inviting the younger and older sisters", which made him feel moved.

"Junior brother."

Upon hearing this, Nanwang raised his head, but he could only see the sword that Gu Shanshi was standing on.

Gu Shan was high in the sky, and his voice was distant and calm, like a pool of calm water without waves:

"On the long road of cultivating immortals, other people are just passers-by. It is normal for them to come and go."

"... Senior Brother?"

Nanwang didn't understand.

He wanted to ask something else, but was puzzled to find that Gu Shanshi was no longer in the sky.

Nan Wang looked at his friends blankly: "Do you understand, what does Senior Brother mean?"

Luo Xuyou said seriously: "Brother is telling you to be patient and not get carried away by your temporary success."

Yuan He nodded and added: "Brother may have seen that it may take some time for Brother Luo and I to break through, so he told you not to forget our old friendship after you enter the inner sect."

"What the hell is this?" Nan Wang said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Alright, alright, the elders won't be back so soon, you guys should hurry up and practice, we will definitely be able to enter the inner gate together!"

Although his current cultivation level has reached the Qi Refining stage, he has already been designated as a member of the Sword Sect after passing the disciple-accepting ceremony of the elders of each sect to enter the inner sect. However, the two elders of the Sword Sect are not in the sect at the moment, so the disciple-accepting ceremony cannot be carried out. Therefore, he has to stay in the outer sect for a while.

As for when the elders will return, according to the original book, it won't be that soon.

Luo Xuyou said: "Well, you made my blood boil. I will leave first today and go back to practice!"

Yuan He also said: "In this case, I will go first. I have felt that I am about to break through recently. Now with the help of Brother Nan's Qi Condensation Pill, I believe I will be able to refine my Qi in no time."

"Okay, you guys practice well, and I'll see you at the inner gate."

Nanwang said goodbye to the two friends and went into the house.

The room was still the same as it was when I left, with stacks of cards and pots and pans on the table, and some sausages drying by the window.

The scenery is still the same, but the people are no longer the same as when they left.

Until this moment, everything was silent, and the excitement that had been suppressed in Nan Wang's heart finally surged up.

He has achieved a breakthrough in Qi refining.

He really, really broke through the Qi Refining stage.

Nanwang called softly, "Nuonuo, are you there?"

The mist slowly condensed and white balls fell from mid-air.

Nan Wang stretched out his hand and caught An Nuo accurately.

Anno:

“Chichi.”

Good accuracy.

“Wow wow wow, I actually did it. Although I don’t know how I did it, I really did it!!”

Nan Wang buried his head in Annuo's soft plush belly and cried bitterly.

An Nuo: “Chichichi.”

If you can break through the realm in your sleep, you can be considered the number one in the world of immortal cultivation.

"Don't laugh at me. This is really not my fault. I just can't figure it out... You're talking about this, Second Brother..."

Nan Wang breathed a sigh of relief, and said with tears and laughter:

"Is there something wrong with your brain?"

An Nuo: “…”

Nan Wang held An Nuo and sat down beside the bed, feeling full of emotion, "Now I can't figure out what Second Senior Brother wants to do. If you say he hates me, he gave me the Immortal Pill and invited me to participate in the ceremony, but if you say he likes me..."

From the first time they met until now, has the second brother ever given him a good look?

No, not even once.

In Nanwang's memory, the second senior brother was either scolding him or on his way to scold him.

Is this really how someone expresses love?

It can't be like the legend, the deeper the love, the deeper the hatred, right?

His relationship with Second Brother wasn't that close.

Even Nanwang couldn't figure it out, so Annuo was even more confused.

The naive little bunny rubbed his cheeks and changed the subject:

"Chichichi."

All in all, congratulations on your success.

"Wuwunuonuo, you are so nice!"

Nanwangbaji kissed Annuo on the face:

"Hehehe, Fifth Junior Sister will be back with my kitchen utensils soon. I have to show off my cooking skills in front of everyone during the celebration banquet."

"My sausage is almost ready. You can make it in a hot pot, grilled, or pancakes at any pancake stand. It's very simple..."

"Eldest Senior Sister, Eldest Senior Brother, Fifth Junior Sister, Third Senior Brother must all be invited, as well as Second Senior Brother... we still have to invite him. As for whether he will come or not, that is not something I can decide..."

Nan Wang, who was planning a celebration banquet beautifully, never dreamed that at the same moment, Du Xueling was convening an inner sect meeting to inform all the inner sect disciples of a sad news.

In the northern region, there is a great disaster.

The Immortal Fox Secret Realm exploded for hundreds of miles, killing all living beings in the range, with the number of casualties exceeding 100,000.

At the same time, the Immortal Fox Secret Realm was completely sealed off, announcing that the immortal cultivator who entered it half a month ago——

The whole army was wiped out.
