Chapter 1338 Counting the Treasures
"These tables and chairs are also extraordinary, but unfortunately they are integrated with the pavilion and cannot be taken away."
Jiang Han thought to himself that it was a pity. He put away the wine pot and small cup, turned around and left the pavilion.
"Senior brother, fellow Daoists."
Jiang Han showed the wine pot and cups to the group, saying:
"This pot no longer contains the immortal wine, only a wisp of pure spiritual energy remains. This wine cup also seems to possess some mystery. As previously agreed, I will receive this wine pot and forty percent of the energy, while you will each receive a wine cup and twenty percent of the energy. Does anyone have any objections?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Meng Qinghong chimed in from the side:
"What objections could we possibly have? None of the three of us contributed anything on this trip. It was all thanks to our junior brother that we had the opportunity to obtain this celestial treasure. Even if it were only half a percent, let alone two percent, we would still remember our junior brother's great kindness."
Jiang Han said, "Senior brother, there's no need for that. Since it was agreed before, we should do what we're supposed to do, regardless of whether we contribute or not."
Meng Qinghong nodded in approval, saying, "Junior brother is righteous; I will remember this favor."
The two of them, singing in unison, left Yun Fengzhu feeling utterly helpless.
Is Meng Qinghong out of his mind? His acting is so stiff, his eyes are wandering, and his speech is so unnatural. Yet he still managed to finish the scene. It's just ridiculous.
He used to be such an honest person, how did he become like this?
Just then, Gu Chenyin said from the side, "Brother Meng is absolutely right. We have indeed benefited from this matter and should remember this kindness. If Fellow Daoist Jiang needs anything in the future, he can come to me."
After saying that, he and Meng Qinghong turned to look at Yun Fengzhu.
Seeing this, Jiang Han also turned his head slightly and looked at Yun Fengzhu together.
Yun Fengzhu felt very uncomfortable being stared at by the three of them. His lips twitched, and he coughed lightly before saying:
"As you two fellow Daoists have said, I will always remember this kindness. If Fellow Daoist Jiang needs any help, I will do my best to assist him."
Hearing this, Meng Qinghong finally relaxed, nodded and smiled, "Fellow Daoist Yun has always been grateful and has an excellent reputation. Junior Brother, please don't stand on ceremony with him."
He could see clearly that his junior brother would inevitably have some conflicts or struggles with the Lingtian Sect in the future.
If we can use this favor to keep Yun Fengzhu out of the mess, we can most likely use this incident to stop the Holy Sect from interfering.
If that's the case, it will be much easier for my junior brother to do whatever he wants.
"Alright, alright, I've said what I meant and I'll keep my word. Meng, stop nagging."
Yun Fengzhu stared at the wine pot, subconsciously licking his dry lips: "Let's divide the treasure first, and talk about other things later."
Immortal wine, wine of immortals, this is a true immortal treasure, an immortal treasure that even the Transcending Tribulation Ancestor has never seen.
And now, this celestial treasure is right in front of him, and is about to fall into his hands.
They went to such great lengths for this pot of immortal wine. Even if only a trace of its aroma remained, just a small sip would likely be enough to greatly enhance their cultivation.
Not only him, but even Gu Chenyin, who had been pretending to be calm, was excited at this moment, and her breathing became slightly rapid.
This is the first magical treasure he has ever obtained in his life, and it is of great significance.
Moreover, this was a treasure he shared with Jiang Han. As the chosen one, any treasure that Jiang Han obtained must be extremely precious.
Even Meng Qinghong couldn't help but swallow hard, but he didn't urge them on. He just tried to calm himself down and remained wary of the other two.
The more exciting the moment, the more he needed to remain calm. If either of them dared to make the slightest move, he would show absolutely no mercy.
Amidst the three men's nervous excitement, Jiang Han picked up the three wine glasses and handed them to them.
The three of them accepted the gift with both hands with solemn expressions, looking devout, as if they were performing some kind of serious ceremony.
This was the first time Jiang Han had seen the three disciples who had just crossed the tribulation show such expressions, but he could understand. After all, it was immortal wine, and it was only natural to be so serious.
After thinking it over, his expression became much more serious. He held the pot with both hands and slowly poured the wine into their cups.
As he moved, wisps of bluish-green mist rose from the spout of the teapot, transforming into a column of mist that poured into the cup.
At that very moment, Gu Chenyin, the first person to have wine poured for her, suddenly tensed up, her spiritual power surged, and she gritted her teeth, lifting the wine cup with all her might.
Even so, the wine glass seemed to weigh a ton, suddenly sinking downwards and crashing to the ground with a loud bang!
The three men's expressions changed slightly and they stepped back. Gu Chenyin remained silent, her waist flashing with spiritual light. More than ten puppets at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage all made their move. Even with the surging power of the laws, they could not lift the wine cup even a fraction.
"This……"
Yun Fengzhu and Meng Qinghong exchanged a glance, a look of shock in their eyes, followed by barely concealed elation.
Yun Fengzhu sat cross-legged, first circulating his inner energy around himself, and then offered a wine cup to Yun Fengzhu.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, give it to me first!"
Jiang Han nodded and stepped forward, tilting his wine glass until it was about two-tenths full.
Sure enough, the same scene played out again. Even though Yun Fengzhu was prepared, the smell of alcohol still pinned his hands to the ground, preventing him from lifting them even an inch.
The heavier the glass felt, the happier he became, and he excitedly used his skills to try and lift it.
Ignoring him further, Jiang Han shared the remaining wine with Senior Brother Meng before putting away the wine jug and waiting for the others to collect their treasures.
Fifteen minutes later, the three of them used their magic to lift the wine cup slightly, finally managing to put it into the jade box, carefully seal it, and put it away. Without bothering to check it any further, they quickly stored it in their storage magic treasures.
Only then did the three of them breathe a sigh of relief and completely relax.
After this incident, all three of them experienced fluctuations in their auras and seemed somewhat weak.
The three of them were not dissatisfied at all; on the contrary, they were overjoyed.
It's already difficult enough to just pick it up, so you can imagine how precious this so-called "wine aroma" is. If you could consume even a little bit, the benefits would be unimaginable. Breaking through your cultivation level would be the least of your worries, and there must be other wonderful effects as well.
Thinking of this, all three felt a sense of gratitude towards Jiang Han, even Yun Fengzhu was truly grateful to Jiang Han from the bottom of her heart.
This place of inheritance is quite different from other places. Although there are many immortal treasures, they are all protected by immortal restrictions. They have not gained anything and thought they would return empty-handed this time.
Unexpectedly, just by following Jiang Han around, I got such a great deal.
Yun Fengzhu was in a very good mood, and looking at Jiang Han, she said with emotion:
"Fellow Daoist Jiang has been stuck at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm for a long time. Now, with the help of this immortal wine, he will probably be able to break through his realm again soon and enter the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, right?"
Several months have passed since the other party broke through to the Nascent Soul stage. This time is actually quite short. If it were someone else, they would definitely still be in seclusion these days to consolidate their realm.
But Jiang Han is different. This kid's talent is too terrifying to be judged by ordinary standards. These few months are enough for him to stabilize his realm and try to break through to the next level.
Upon hearing this, Meng Qinghong's expression hardened, and he reminded her:
"Junior brother, breakthroughs can't be rushed. You've only recently reached the Nascent Soul stage; now might not be the best time to break through..."
He paused mid-sentence, a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.
What others can't do, my junior brother might be able to do. You can't judge a junior brother by ordinary standards.
Just now, that immortal wine was as heavy as ten thousand jin, and they couldn't even lift twenty jin of it, but their junior brother could easily lift the wine pot. There must be some mystery behind this that they didn't know.
Let alone the interval of several months between breakthroughs, it would be perfectly normal for my junior brother to break through several realms within a month.
Yun Fengzhu chuckled and teased, "Oh, Fellow Daoist Meng, why did you stop? Please continue, we're all listening. What did you just say about 'not necessarily a good opportunity'?"
