Chapter 264: My Goddess Image of Ten Thousand Years Is Ruined

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Nianfan felt strange looking at this seed.

Yao Mengji and the other two widened their eyes. There was sweat all over them and their hair stood on ends. Their limbs had stiffened and they had lost their ability to think.

Why was there only one seed?

This was…too much!

Yao Mengji and Qin Manyun looked at Gu Xirou at the same time with anger. They almost cried!

‘How dare you frame your disciples! Where’s your treasure? Why’s there only one ordinary seed?’

Furthermore, this seed seemed as if it had no life left in it. It was very likely to be dead.

How could such a thing be gifted to the expert? It was over!

Yao Mengji worked so hard to build the connection with the expert. Was it about to be destroyed?

Gu Xirou looked at the seed with the same dumbfounded look. Did she risk her life for this seed? It would only be worth it if it was a treasure. This was nothing!

Unless…this seed was extraordinary?

They stood by the side anxiously as they held their breaths. Since they had come to this stage, they could only wait for the expert to make a reply, for him to determine whether they could live on!

The next few seconds felt as long as a century. Under the intense atmosphere, everyone had sweat on their foreheads.

Li Nianfan looked at it for a moment. Then, he smiled, “It’s definitely a gourd seed. Nice, the look of this seed is quite unique. It happens to be useful to me, thanks!”

He had come to the Immortal Realm for so long and yet, he had not seen a gourd. He had brewed some wine and used a flagon to store it. Once the gourd formed, he could try to use the gourd to store the wine.

Since he was influenced by his previous realm, using a gourd to keep wine was fancier than using a flagon. The thought of it was already nice!

Phew…

Yao Mengji let out a sigh of relief. He felt extremely lucky to be alive. His face had stiffened from being too nervous. He smiled and said, “Ha-ha, as long as Mr. Li likes it.”

As long as it was useful. As long as it was useful.

They did not care whether it was a gourd or no gourd. As long as the expert looked at it and did not dislike it, it was a great thing!

“Speaking of gourds, I just remembered that I brought a jar of nice wine with me.” He looked at the sky and then frowned. “One should return one’s gesture. I don’t have anything with me, so I should invite you for a meal. Drinking at this hour doesn’t seem right either.”

All their hearts were thumping so quickly. They were extremely excited. Actually, they were excited and uneasy.

After all, this was a nice wine brewed by the expert. They did not have to think to know that it would not be ordinary. If they did not ask for a sip, all their cultivation over the years might as well go to the dogs!

The opportunity was right in front of their eyes, they must work for it!

This could very well be a test set up by the expert.

With that in mind, Yao Mengji bit his tongue and forced a smile. He said, “Mr. Li, I do quite like drinking in the morning, especially at this hour, it’s just right!”

Qin Manyun’s reaction was fast. She smiled embarrassingly and said, “To be honest with you, Mr. Li, I normally drink in the morning as well.”

Gu Xirou nodded hastily. “It seems that we can’t hide this from you. Day-drinking has always been a tradition at our Linxian Palace.”

“There’s such a tradition? How rare!” Li Nianfan looked at the three of them suspiciously. Suddenly, he smiled. “Wonderful, let’s all have a drink!”

The three of them looked delighted. As expected, it was a test by the expert. If they did not take up this opportunity, they would have missed out!

Luckily! Luckily!

“Brother, I want to drink!” Dragin said coquettishly as she rushed out from the skyship like a small elf.

Behind her, the Holy Emperor and Blackie also walked out.

“Kids don’t drink! You’ll be drunk and noisy!” Li Nianfan pressed on Dragin’s head. He wanted to drag her away. He then looked at the Holy Emperor, “Luo Emperor, do you drink this early in the morning?”

“Of course!” The Holy Emperor was too delighted. He quickly said, “Mr. Li’s so clever. You could tell that I have the habit of drinking in the morning! Impressive! Impressive!”

“Ha-ha-ha…” Li Nianfan finally could not hold it in any longer. He laughed, “You bunch of people, just admit you want to taste the good wine. Why bother making up these excuses? There’s nothing to be embarrassed about.”

Humorous! How humorous!

He did not expect even the Immortal could have humor! Instantly, his ego was boosted, very interesting.

“Come on, I’ll satisfy your wishes!” Li Nianfan said with a proud look. “My wine’s good. It’s very strong, so do drink it slowly.”

The crowd nodded. Their eyes sparkled as they tried their best not to drool. “Don’t worry, Mr. Li, I’m good at wine tasting!”

Li Nianfan wasted no more time. He took out the wine jar.

Click!

He opened it. Instantly, the thick fragrance of wine filled the air, covering up the entire skyship.

Those affected most were Yao Mengji and the rest.

They did not even have to sniff it. The scent had already rushed into their noses. Instantly, they had forgotten about everything. This place seemed to have turned into an ocean of wine, its scent causing each of them to dwell in it deeply.

Furthermore, even the Spiritual Qi in their bodies had been awakened.

Without hesitation, they all praised genuinely, “Good wine!”

Li Nianfan smiled and poured everyone a cup. He gave Dragin a little and Blackie a cup. He warned uneasily, “Come, Blackie, I’m telling you, if you get drunk and mess around, you won’t get any in the future!”

This was someone else’s skyship after all. It must be precious. If Blackie messed around, they might turn it into a dish!

Gu Xirou received the cup from Li Nianfan. She held it cautiously. She was more excited than everyone else.

After all, this was her first encounter with the expert, and also her first time tasting his food.

The fruits, honey, and eggs had already gone beyond her imagination. If the expert called this a good wine, how precious would it be!

She dared not imagine it because this was beyond her imagination!

Blessing! What a blessing!

She took a deep breath and raised the wine cup. She could not wait to gently take a sip.

Her lips were like a dragonfly pecking at the water, it was just a small movement.

Even so, she could feel a refreshing chill. The wine went into her mouth, gradually going into her throat, and slowly flowed down.

Upon entering the throat, the refreshing liquid changed by 180 degrees. It was like a volcano exploding, its burning flames spreading all over her.

Gu Xirou felt all of her pores opening up as her eyes widened.

Before she could react, the wine had gone into her stomach. The wine was like a dragon, washing over like a tsunami, drowning her entirely.

Spiritual Qi, Immortal Qi, Law, Insights—this wine contained too much. They all exploded in the stomach, one wave after another.

Burp!

Gu Xirou could not help it and burped.

Her face flushed red. She wished she had a hole to bury herself. The goddess image she had maintained for 10,000 years had been ruined by a burp!

However, she felt better when the others burped swiftly after her.

“Ha-ha!” Li Nianfan could not help laughing. “As I said, morning drinking isn’t good. Our stomachs haven’t started running yet.”

“Mr. Li’s right. I’m so…embarrassed.” Qin Manyun almost cried!

How embarrassing! She was too embarrassed to look at Li Nianfan. She felt so ashamed!

However, swiftly after, the burp had been forgotten. Everyone was immersed in the wine, they were unable to think of other things.

Li Nianfan did not speak. He held his wine and took two steps forward. He admired the view beneath his feet while sipping from time to time. A smile appeared on his lips, feeling relaxed.

The wine cup was not big, so it did not take long before the wine had reached the bottom.

When he was tasting the wine, he only felt that the wine was strong and delicious. It rushed to his head. Even if he used up his entire Spiritual Qi, it was still very hard to contain.

The crowd’s faces looked rather red. Their heads were swaying, looking drunk.

Their Immortal Strength and sense of Law were opened up by the wine, messing and mixing up in their heads.

Gu Xirou never thought that she could get drunk. Her brain was buzzing as if a volcano was erupting in her. When she snapped out from her thoughts, her pupils dilated and she wore a look of disbelief.

Intermediate…Immortal Realm?

Since Immortalizing, she had remained at the Beginner Immortal Realm. It was extremely hard to break through and she faced a bottleneck for thousands of years. Yet, she had strangely broken through it like this?

She did not hit herself. She pinched her cheek. Instantly her eyes became watery.

This was not a dream, this was real!

She looked at the others. Without an accident, they each had a breakthrough, too!

The Holy Emperor went from the late-Distraction to the early-Combination. Qin Manyun went up to the early-Distraction, while Yao Mengji went to the late-Cross Tribulation.

This wine…had the power of helping one to break through their bottlenecks!

The wine went up to their heads. Who would have thought that even the bottlenecks would be gone, too!

Gu Xirou could not help gulping. She looked at Li Nianfan who was looking down, admiring the view on the deck. Her scalp was going numb.

This man was too terrifying!

He was too powerful! So powerful that he had lost the joy of life. No wonder he wanted to stay in the ordinary realm and give himself the persona of an ordinary man.

She quickly looked away, fearing to look at him.

The skyship continued to travel and the view below them changed accordingly.

On the way, Li Nianfan saw some broken villages, some emptied deserts, as well as devilish valleys. The changes of the ground were hard to anticipate. Meanwhile, there were some battles between the cultivators and the scary demons passing by.

The Immortal Realm was full of danger! Luckily he was good at boot-licking. If not, how would he be able to travel like a bigshot?

Meanwhile, he realized that as they traveled to the North, the conditions worsened. Even the forests grew sparse and the soil became yellow.

It was apparent that the sources for cultivation were not as well as the other areas.

Nanan was new to the cultivating world. He wondered how much pain she had endured.
