Chapter 141: No More Immortal Energy

The music in the hall was elegant and moving. Sometimes it was like a mountain stream or a clear spring. Sometimes, it was as empty as the sound of nature.

Shen Ping, on the other hand, had no time to listen and appreciate such wonderful joy. He stared at the jade cup. With a faint smile, he raised his head and finished it in one go.

The long road to immortality was endless. Sometimes, it had to be faster. Boom.

The Blue Flame Water Wine was bone-chilling, but soon, his stomach seemed to be completely burning, and the skin on his face was red as if it was on fire. He hurriedly circulated his magic power. Only then did he suppress his drunkenness.

Perfected Qiu glanced over and gestured with the jade cup. She smiled and said, “Guest Elder Shen, don’t be anxious. This spirit wine needs to be carefully tasted to taste the taste of the mellow wine.”

Shen Ping turned his body and his gaze landed on the purple orchid dress that extended to the jade table. Then, he cupped his hands. “Senior Qiu is right. I don’t know much about spirit wine. I’ve embarra.s.sed myself.”

When a Golden Core Realm cultivator at the jade table behind him heard this, he could not help but say, “Guest Elder Shen is obsessed with studying the Dao of Talismans and has no other distractions. Naturally, you don’t know about spirit wine. The most important thing for Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators is to increase their cultivation. When they form their Golden Core in the future and have a lifespan of five hundred years, 1 think they will have the time to spend some time studying spirit wine.”

Instantly, the surrounding cultivators shouted.

“That’s right. You just have to drink the spirit wine occasionally.”

“Wine tasting is just for fun. Guest Elder Shen, you don’t have to mind.” “Drinking the Blue Flame Water Wine in one gulp is the way to taste wine!” Some even imitated Shen Ping and drank it in one gulp. They shouted straightforwardly, “Good wine!”

There were many respondents. When the cultivators sitting a little further away saw this, although they did not know the exact reason, they followed suit.

Pei Huoyu’s expression was calm. She had seen too many such scenes. Cultivation was all about opportunities. Once the opportunity arrived, everything would go smoothly. The so-called benefactor was also a kind of opportunity. And Shen Ping was this benefactor.

Cultivators fought and killed each other. They took the risk of dying in the Demon Beast Mountain Range and formed a group to explore the ruins. In the end, no one might survive. Even if you were extremely intelligent, had many methods, and had shocking schemes, as long as you fought, you would be in danger of losing your life. You could only minimize your failure.

What was all this for? Wasn’t it because of cultivation resources? The core members of the True Treasure Pavilion meant resources. It was precisely this point. That was why there were so many Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators at this banquet.

“The second wine we’re tasting today…”

He tasted ten types of spirit wine in a row. It was almost noon. At this moment, the sound of drums suddenly sounded. There was also the sound of the pipa and zither. Immediately after, moonlight fell from the sky above the hall.

Shen Ping looked up. He knew that this was Fairy Cai Shang’s Solitary Dance under the Moon. However, he was really not in the mood to admire it now. The jar of spirit wine on the left was emitting a unique fragrance. Her voice continued to ring in his ears. “I’ve been cultivating bitterly for a long time.

“I look graceful on the surface, but the material of my purple orchid dress is already unbearable. The path to immortality seems boring, but 1 believe that as long as I persevere, I will always see some hope. I just don’t know how long it will take. Sigh.”

Shen Ping looked straight ahead. Behind him were cultivators of the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment. His every move would attract attention. All he could do was taste the wine. He looked at the purple jade cup filled with Golden Toad Snow Moon Spirit Wine in front of him. He first tasted nine drops in front of the jade cup. Then, he quickly tasted a drop on the back of the jade cup.

Instantly, the smell of the Golden Toad Blood Moon Spirit Wine wafted out from his nose. The hall was filled with this spirit wine. When the Solitary Dance under the Moon stopped, this banquet was not even half over.

There were many rooms in the back hall. He drank continuously. Even though Shen Ping kept using his magic power to suppress it, he still felt drunk. After noon, he was personally led by Chong Ji to Room 6. Pei Huoyu was in Room 7. In the room, the furnis.h.i.+ngs and decorations were complete. Chong Ji smiled and said, “Guest Elder Shen, your alcohol tolerance is not good. There are special wine-relieving spiritual fruits and wine-relieving pills in the house. They can all be used. You can rest at the end of the afternoon.”

With that, he left.

There were also some rooms in the corridor on the left of the front hall. Fairy Cai Shang and the other female cultivators of the Mystic Immortal Pavilion were all here. After the solo dance under the moon, Cai Shang sat upright in the room. She pinched the corner of her dress with her fingertips, and the material crumpled into a ball.

The pressure from all directions made her extremely nervous. If she lost this opportunity, falling from the clouds was secondary, most importantly, it was very difficult for her to jump into the sky again and surpa.s.s Fairy Cai Yue.

“That Guest Elder Shen has a wife and concubine, which means that he’s not an ascetic! I just need one meeting, and 1 can use my methods.” Fairy Cai Shang recalled the scene of dancing alone in the bedroom of the small courtyard and imprinting it in the colorful crystals. That was the only time in her cultivation years that she did not hold back and did not hide anything. She completely displayed her dancing skills.

She believed that as long as Guest Elder Shen took a look, he would be able to truly admire her dance skills.

As time pa.s.sed, there were no footsteps outside the house. Fairy Cai Shang’s eyes went from antic.i.p.ation to unwillingness, and finally, despair. No one came to inform her. Mystic Immortal Pavilion’s arrangements of spending all their connections and resources failed again. There were no other arrangements for any subsequent accidents.

She did not know what had happened during this period. However, the outcome was destined at this moment.

“Today’s 20th spirit wine…” A voice sounded in the front hall.

Fairy Cai Shang sat there in a daze as if she had lost her soul. Her extraordinary face had lost its l.u.s.ter. The fairy-like gracefulness on her body also fell to the mortal world. From the Foundation Establishment Banquet, the colorful crystal, to the current tasting banquet, she had prepared carefully. However, not all her efforts would be rewarded.

“Fairy Cai Shang!”

“It’s Fairy Cai Shang!”

“Solitary Dance under the Moon.”

She seemed to hear the grand cheers of the cultivators of the Mystic Immortal Pavilion. There were Foundation Establishment cultivators, and there was no lack of Golden Cores.

“Oh, Cai Shang. In the end, she can’t compare to Cai Yue. No matter how exquisite and perfect the Solitary Dance under the Moon is, it’s still difficult to compare to Cai Yue’s Fleeting Glance.”

She never cared about these things. And now Fairy Cai Shang laughed silently. That smile was very bitter. The light in her eyes gradually gathered. She looked straight, as if she saw the broad figure in the Cloud Fir Street of Huiquan Alley. “So I don’t even have the right to hear you say who you are…”

In the evening, the banquet ended. A large number of Golden Core, Foundation Establishment, and other cultivators and guests flashed and left.

The Pavilion Master walked into the front hall. His divine sense swept over Cai Shang, who was sitting in the corridor room. Then, his eyes darkened as he came to Chong Ji. “I’ve also informed Elder Peng. What exactly happened?!”

Chong Ji smiled and cupped his hands. “Senior, when Guest Elder Shen was taking a nap at noon, Perfected Qiu of the True Treasure Pavilion specially instructed that Guest Elder Shen’s alcohol tolerance is not good and it’s not convenient for him to be disturbed. There’s nothing I can do.”

The Pavilion Master frowned. Then, he thought of something and snorted coldly, “A dignified Golden Core Daoist actually did such a thing. When did the True Treasure Pavilion become the Acacia Faction?!”

Chong Ji still smiled. “Senior, calm down. Actually, if Guest Elder Shen is really willing to see her, how can she not have a chance? Last time, I shamelessly gave away the colorful crystal, but in the end.”

The Pavilion Master did not say anything else. He transmitted his divine sense. Soon, he left with Fairy Cai Shang. He knew that what Chong Ji said was the truth. The small matter that happened in Huiquan Alley back then would probably be difficult to resolve.

After returning to the Mystic Immortal Pavilion, the Pavilion Master said, “Cai Shang, since there’s no chance to get to know Guest Elder Shen, there’s no need to think about it anymore. In a few years, I’ll arrange a Dao companion for you. Cultivate steadily in the future!”

Hearing this, Fairy Cai Shang bowed weakly and left.

“What a pity.” The Pavilion Master looked at the graceful back that no longer had the aura of a fairy and sighed..
