Chapter 137 Seize the moment
The next day.
The spiritual mist floating in the courtyard is as thin as a veil.
Shen Ping was wearing a plain brocade robe with wide sleeves, the round purple collar revealing the color. The jade belt around his waist was embroidered with white cloud patterns and had seven sparkling thunder-purple luster. On both sides of his body hung jade pendants carved with special and strange patterns. On his feet were sky-blue boots with rippled patterns, with a circle of tiny cloud rings wrapped around the edge. His off-white crown made him look elegant yet solemn.
Bai Yuying raised her toes slightly, combed her hair carefully, and said with a charming smile, "My husband, this outfit is really heart-warming."
Luo Qing added calmly, "They are all top-grade magical instruments. My husband is very attractive."
Shen Ping smiled and said, "When I come back from wine tasting, not only will your hearts be moved, but they will also tremble in the evening."
The two women suddenly felt their legs go weak.
The two shudders late at night are still vivid in my mind.
At this time.
Pei Huoyu walked out of the quiet room.
Light flame-colored armor covered the curves.
Shen Ping glanced at it subconsciously and felt that the outline seemed to be a little bigger.
Leave Tongquan Lane.
The morning glow in the sky has not yet faded.
However, when we arrived at the gate of Qingyang City, the sunlight had already shone through the clouds.
A clear light fell on Pei Huoyu.
There is a touching calmness on his heroic face.
It seemed that nothing could stir up the waves in her heart.
Stepping on a small cloud boat.
Soon it turned into a streak of light and rushed towards the distance.
The spiritual cave where Chong Ji was located was not far from Qingyang Lake, but it still took two cups of tea to get there.
"Senior Pei."
"What is it?"
"When I was practicing recently, I found that my mana increased rapidly and my physical fitness improved unusually. It seems to be related to the blood of that strange beast."
Pei Huoyu glanced sideways, "Strange beast blood is a restricted resource of the Zhenbao Building. It hides in your body and will continuously produce beneficial effects."
She hesitated, then asked, "Fellow Daoist Shen, how did you pass the third assessment?"
"The test requirement was to smash the bronze disc, and I did it."
"But it's a bit difficult. I didn't even break it the first time."
Shen Ping shook his head.
Pei Huoyu turned his gaze and said, "So, Fellow Daoist Shen was blasted to pieces the second time."
"Yes."
"In fact... for the third test, you just need to keep bombarding the bronze disc until the blood of the strange beast pattern is consumed and absorbed, and you can pass it."
"But if you blast the disc to pieces, the amount of blood you get from the strange beast will be the greatest."
Pei Huoyu looked forward, his voice seemed to fluctuate slightly, "The reason why you can feel your magic power improving and your physical fitness improving in such a short time is related to this. Once you have completely absorbed the blood of the strange beast, there will be no more bumps on the road to the Nascent Soul stage."
Shen Ping couldn't help but ask, "Senior Pei, why is the effect of this strange beast's blood so miraculous?"
He was surprised.
If it is really that powerful.
Wouldn't it be possible for a cultivator to break through to the Nascent Soul stage by obtaining more blood from strange beasts?
This time, Pei Huoyu turned his body sideways and looked at Shen Ping seriously.
"Restricted resources are more amazing than you would expect."
"Fellow Daoist Shen."
"You are already a core member of the Zhenbao Tower. Don't limit yourself to this remote place in Wei State."
"Talisman is only one of the hundred arts. The real strength is always the strength of one's own cultivation. You can absorb the blood of the whole beast and still be at the foundation-building level. This is a great blessing."
Shen Ping could hear the envy in Pei Huoyu's tone. He smiled and said, "I just smashed it by luck. By the way, since the blood of this strange beast is a restricted resource, I think it will be difficult to obtain it in Zhenbao Tower, right?"
"Core members only have this one chance."
Pei Huoyu hesitated and added, "But this is only what I know. In the Zhenbao Building, authority and identity represent everything, and you are a core member of the D level. There are three levels above that: C, B, and A."
"It is extremely difficult to be promoted to each level, and the corresponding treatment and authority are also different. When you reach the B-level core, you may be exposed to more restricted information than me."
Shen Ping understood immediately.
This Master Pei was willing to compete to become his protector, probably because he believed that he could be promoted to a Class B core in the future.
While the two were talking.
The cloud boat has arrived above Chongji’s spiritual vein cave.
"Keqing Shen!"
"Senior Pei!"
Chong Ji and his disciples, who had been waiting on the jade platform in front of the cave, came forward to greet them warmly.
After Shen Ping landed, he put away the cloud boat.
He responded with a smile and a cupped hand.
Then, under the guidance of Chong Ji, he walked into the Lingmai Cave.
Narrow at first.
Just a few steps along the valley.
Suddenly the view in front of me opened up.
The emerald green mountain peaks are shrouded in rosy clouds, and a palace is located halfway up the mountain where several waterfalls cascade down. Cranes greet the door, and auspicious beasts guard the mountain.
This is not a cave at all, it is clearly a sacred mountain.
Seeing Shen Ping's eyes moving over.
Chong Ji said helplessly, "This is Elder Peng's small spiritual peak in Qingyang Lake. Although he did not attend the wine tasting banquet this time, he lent me this spiritual peak temporarily."
Shen Ping smiled and said nothing.
But in my heart, I feel that human feelings are everywhere.
whoosh.
He walked on the clouds and landed in front of the palace in a moment.
Shopkeeper Qu, Shopkeeper Ding and other guests who had arrived early came out to greet them.
After the polite greetings.
Shen Ping took a seat in the front hall.
The location is very forward.
It was not convenient for him to refuse. After all, Master Pei was sitting next to him, so he couldn't sit too far back.
A quick glance.
In addition to the spiritual fruits and delicacies, the jade table was also decorated with jade cups of seven different colors.
Chong Ji gave his eldest disciple a few words of advice and then left to greet other guests at the banquet.
"Shen Keqing."
Di Shouye stepped forward and said respectfully, "At this wine tasting banquet, there are a total of eight kinds of golden elixir spirit wines, thirty-six kinds of foundation-building spirit wines, and two kinds of special spirit wines. You can taste a glass of each spirit wine at that time."
"You can take a rest in Room 3 in the back hall at noon."
Speaking of.
He transmitted his voice, "My master said that some fellow Taoists might come to visit. I haven't discussed this with you before, so please forgive me. If you don't intend to meet other cultivators, my master will help you make new arrangements."
Shen Ping said casually, "Let's rearrange it."
He came here mainly to taste the wine, not to do anything else.
"yes."
As time goes on.
The monks who were to host the banquet arrived one after another.
Among them, more than ten Jindan elders from Danxia Sect and Hehuan Sect came.
"Shen Keqing."
"Senior Pei."
The smile is very warm.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Some of them even chatted with Shen Ping and asked if he was used to living in Tongquan Lane.
And the praises are endless.
Many of the seated monks who had little relationship with Shen Ping or were strangers to him were quite envious of this scene. They came to this wine tasting banquet mainly to get to know this guest official Shen. Even if they could just talk to him for a few more words, it might become a blessing in the future.
When the jade table is almost full.
A figure appeared at the door of the front hall.
She was wearing a purple-blue long dress, her hair was tied up with a pearl hairpin and a glittering crown on her head, her eyebrows were slightly made-up, her lips were rosy, her cheeks revealed a sense of elegance, and the magical aura of the golden elixir lingered around her.
Suddenly.
The eyes of all the foundation-building alchemy cultivators converged.
True Master Qiu of Zhenbao Tower.
She folded her hands at her waist in front of her, and as she walked with a dignified step, the purple-pink jade belts on her shoulders fluttered behind her.
"Senior Qiu."
Shen Ping stood up and saluted.
Master Qiu's rosy lips moved slightly, and a smile appeared on her elegant face. She first bowed to Pei Huoyu, and then said, "Mr. Shen, I hope you enjoy the wine tasting today."
She sat down directly to Shen Ping's left.
Shen Ping glanced sideways.
I caught a glimpse of him sitting down from the corner of my eye.
The majestic curves in front of the waist almost hit the jade table.
He was frightened.
What a majestic and heroic golden elixir.
Not long.
All the monks in the hall are present.
After Chong Ji said a few words, the music from Xianmiao Tower started playing, and one by one, skilled female practitioners walked into the hall and started dancing.
at the same time.
The wine tasting party begins.
"This first kind of spiritual wine is the Blue Flame Water Wine produced in the State of Jin."
"Fellow Daoists, please!"
Chong Ji said this while waving his sleeves.
The pure magic power controlled the spiritual wine in the jar to fall into the jade cup of each monk who was hosting the banquet.
This meticulous control over magic power alone made many Jindan cultivators nod their heads secretly.
Shen Ping picked up the jade cup.
Just ready to taste.
A voice came from my ear, "Mr. Shen, this Blue Flame Wine may taste a little cold at first, but it will ignite a flame in your stomach. It has a unique flavor. You must savor it drop by drop, otherwise it will lose its effect."
Shen Ping glanced over subconsciously.
I saw Master Qiu closing his eyes and tasting the blue flame wine slowly.
The curves of her purple dress undulated slightly.
It seems like there is some alcohol brewing.
"Shen Keqing."
"I always have a few drinks late at night."
"These spiritual wines can dispel the depression of golden elixir cultivation."
“It’s just that there’s always something missing.”
"I wonder if Mr. Shen can help me make up for this and completely clear the depression in my heart."
"If you are willing, drink three drops of Blue Flame Wine. If you are not destined to have this, then drink it all in one gulp!"
Master Qiu kept his eyes closed the entire time.
Only her fingers holding the jade cup were trembling slightly.
Shen Ping retracted his gaze.
Looking at the blue flame wine in my hand, I didn't know how to taste it for a moment.
Last time, Master Qiu invited me.
He didn't dare to test the depth of the golden elixir.
And I have experienced a lot during these days.
Especially what Master Pei Yunzhou said earlier, which touched his heart.
The world is big.
Zhenbao Tower is far away.
All he can do is seize the moment.
Seize the moment.
Think of this.
Shen Ping raised his head and drank three drops of blue flame wine.
Almost instantly.
A relieved smile appeared on Master Qiu's elegant face.
The corners of her lips moved slightly, "Thank you Mr. Shen for giving me the opportunity."
"My distress is both up and down."
"The one who is above is the greatest."
"The lower one is, the deeper one is."
"Place five drops of Blue Flame Wine on top and seven drops on the bottom. If there are both, please taste them slowly, Mr. Shen."
