Chapter 8, the Wine Immortal makes his appearance

The one farthest from her is Li Changshou, who is sitting at the back end of the gourd

Then the finger pointed towards the northwest, and the wine gourd began to accelerate slowly

Uh, Yuan Qing's face showed embarrassment, but he quickly cupped his hands in salute and said, "I apologize, Senior Brother Changshou, please do not take offense."

Beiju Luzhou is certainly not a good place; no one went there during the previous two times

Go, go, go! Let's head to the East Sea to fight those shrimp demons!

From the clouds behind, a towering figure flew out. This person was clad in chainmail, with a rugged appearance, and exuded a dense and heavy aura. A massive battle axe was slung across his back

Hmm?

Then, with an extremely indifferent tone, You Qin Xuan Ya began to speak

Li Changshou's gaze instinctively fell upon Liu Yan'er, whose face was slightly round and bore a hint of liveliness, but Liu Yan'er, instead, directed her attention to another young female disciple

"Heh," Jiu Jiu, who was watching from the side, also found it amusing and raised an eyebrow at Yuan Qing

"Master Uncle," Li Changshou said with a bitter smile, taking two steps forward while holding the jade piece, and handed it back to the female immortal, "If I had a choice, I would not want to venture into the North Julu Continent, but this time it is truly unavoidable.

"Rest assured, Master Uncle," Yuan Qing cast a gentle glance at Li Changshou, his smile quite mild, "I will certainly take good care of Junior Brother Changshou"

Is Beiju Luzhou also a place you can visit at the ninth level of transformation?

"Uncle Jiu..." Wang Qi in the back hurriedly said, "How could I possibly sing a song?"

Indeed, Li Changshou, how have you managed to cultivate for over a hundred years without reaching the Void Return realm... Never mind

The one closest to Jiu Jiu is You Qin Xuan Ya, who is sitting cross-legged just a foot behind Jiu Jiu, with the large sword laid horizontally in front of her.

After a moment, the large gourd floated in the air, remaining still, while Jiu sat there loosely and called out loudly: "I wonder what brings this fellow Daoist from the clouds to follow us for so long?"

Given the conditions at Xiaoqiongfeng, it would be quite commendable if you can keep up with most of the disciples

In addition, a small portion was given to the junior sister for self-defense

If you really die there, I will be deducted ten years' worth of drinking money. That whiny master of yours will definitely come running to me, crying and wailing...

Li Changshou lightly twitched the tip of his nose, catching a whiff of ... a certain familiar scent.

The Immortal Jiu stood with his arms crossed above the gourd's mouth, exuding an extraordinary presence; several young disciples stood quietly at various points around the gourd, all standing firmly and steadily

As the gourd flew out of the grand formation, the Immortal Jiu Jiu raised his hands to form a seal. The wine gourd emitted wisps of light in a pale green hue, creating a thin membrane around it that isolated the external sounds.

They suddenly appeared when they were about to go to Beijulu Island

Jiu Jiu tilted his head, assessing the two female disciples behind him

Fortunately, the way she bound her slender waist with a cloth strip, along with the burlap shirt that was about to burst, and the occasional hint of pressure she exuded, made it clear to anyone that she was a formidable female immortal

What herb is this

What is your cultivation level? Why are you going to the Chaotic Poisonous Forest just after reaching the ninth stage of transformation?

Yuan Qing, Xuan Ya, you are ranked second and sixth among the disciples of this generation, why are you both in such a hurry to gather herbs

Xiao Qiongfeng, Li Changshou

Go back, there is no need to worry about me

Li Changshou suddenly felt two unfriendly gazes upon him. He did not delve into the matter, calmly thanked Jiu Jiu for the drink, then turned to respectfully salute Youqin Xuanya and Yuanqing, before retreating behind the four, standing quietly.

However, it has nothing to do with oneself

Li Changshou was seated a short distance away from several others, his body remaining tense and not in a meditative state like the others. His left fingertips pressed against two yellow talismans.

The disciple accepted the order, "Yes," replied Qinxuan Ya with an expressionless face.

Liu Yan'er and Wang Qi were both quietly regulating their breath in the middle of the gourd at this moment

Liu Yan'er, dressed in a light yellow gauze skirt, and Wang Qi, clad in a blue Daoist robe, are both among the top disciples of this generation, skilled practitioners of the Returning Void realm, and exceptional seedlings of immortality

Li Changshou's face showed a solemn expression as he cupped his hands in salute to the renowned wine immortal, saying: "Master of Wine, I need to find a few medicinal herbs, one of which can only be found in the Northern Julu Continent. I must trouble you this time, Master of Wine."

He also separated a strand of spiritual awareness to examine several storage artifacts on his person

In terms of appearance and temperament, they resemble the inner disciples who have been long exploited as laborers to the point of self-abandonment.

Hmm

After slowly sipping a mouthful, Jiu's cheeks flushed slightly, and her moans blended into the wind, exuding an air of satisfaction and comfort. She then turned her head to observe the five young disciples behind her

Qin Xuanya slightly furrowed her brows and said calmly, "Senior Brother Yuanqing need not worry about me; this is a matter of my own cultivation and does not require the intervention of others"

Jiu Jiu looked up and calmly transmitted a message to Li Changshou: "In this vast land of the five continents, there are countless Qi refiners who can soar into the sky and burrow into the earth. There is no need to be overly surprised; we are not far from our Du Xian Sect."

Li Changshou shook his head with a smile, feeling somewhat emotional deep down

Yuan Qing made a helpless expression, continuing to meditate three feet behind You Qin Xuan Ya, the smile at the corner of his mouth gradually fading away

In the conversation, the female immortal took out a jade piece from her wine-stained short shirt and casually tossed it to Li Changshou

Indeed! Who is it, Yuanqing, Xuanya

Sixth Princess

The female immortal curled her lips slightly, her face, which was actually quite beautiful, showing a hint of disdain. "I have some ties with your master, so I will give you this. Take it to Elder Qi Ling of the Dao Zang Pavilion."

Jiu Jiu yawned, sat down at the mouth of the gourd, with her two small legs dangling on either side of it. She leaned back without any regard for her image, casually picked up the wine gourd from her waist, and a satisfied smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

... ...

According to the sect rules, the master uncle cannot refuse the disciple's request to go out for training, so I kindly ask the master uncle to grant this request

Li Changshou shook his head with a solemn expression and instead used the technique of sound transmission to remind Jiu Jiu: "Master Uncle, it seems there is a figure in the clouds above."

The woman with facial paralysis and the warm-hearted man make quite a compatible pair

She leaned against the edge of the gourd-shaped mouth, gazing up at the clouds drifting and swirling under the azure sky, slightly lost in thought

Immortal

Suddenly, the four individuals meditating on the gourd immediately opened their eyes, while Li Changshou, who had been observing from the back, retracted his right hand into his sleeve, his fingers gripping his storage artifact.

Gaining experience through outdoor activities and making ample preparations is always wise, especially when venturing into perilous places like Beiju Luzhou

Although their gazes just now were not friendly, they did not carry much malice; at most, there was a hint of disdain.

You Qingxuan did not say much, continuing to meditate with her eyes closed, surrounded by wisps of flame-like aura, exuding beauty from every angle

Those two gazes naturally came from the other two individuals

The young girl dressed in a fiery red fairy skirt and the refined young gas refiner both clasped their hands in response, saying: "Disciple reporting in!"

This time, Li Changshou also brought most of his wealth with him

This person, known as Jiu, is a disciple of the Breaking Sky Peak. Although she appears to be just in her early twenties, she is actually eight or nine hundred years old and has been an immortal for over six hundred years. Among her contemporaries who entered the sect at the same time, she is also a standout figure and is now capable of handling matters independently

Jiu Jiu couldn't help but support his forehead with one hand, and began to complain to Li Changshou: "He entered the field earlier than both you and Xuan Ya.

Yuan Qing smiled gently and said, "Having one more person always means one more opportunity"

Princess

Ugh, just thinking about it is infuriating

Jiu Jiu said irritably, "If you two have the energy, please help keep an eye on him."

This is not a habit of being good at organizing; it is necessary to categorize and store items such as elixirs and magical tools. The objects contained within these few magical tools are actually identical, with elixirs, magical tools, and spirit stones all divided into three equal parts

Jiu Jiu took a sip of the celestial brew, feeling unsatisfied and savoring the endless aftertaste, yet could only reluctantly hang the gourd back at her waist

After a short while, a gigantic gourd slowly ascended into the air in front of the hall

At a distance of one hundred zhang, this burly man cupped his fists towards Jiu Jiu and said in a loud voice: "I am the guard commander of the Hall of the Honglin Kingdom in the Eastern Divine Continent, here specifically to protect Her Highness the Sixth Princess. If there is any offense, I hope the immortal will not take it to heart"

Li Changshou carefully sensed that this person seemed to have only recently attained immortality and did not exert much pressure on him

Just consider it part of my monthly payment, go get the herbs you need

That Wang Qi, sing a little tune for the master uncle

In the corner of the Baifan Hall, a female immortal, reeking of alcohol, tilted her head slightly and glared at Li Changshou, who stood behind four radiant young disciples. She then glanced down at the bamboo strip in her hand, raised her head to look at Li Changshou, and repeated this action twice, her expression gradually darkening.

This female immortal speaks frankly and without any reservations, yet her words are indeed quite reasonable, clearly considering the safety and well-being of Li Changshou

The bracelet on the left wrist is the primary storage artifact, and to be on the safe side, the pendant around the neck serves as a backup storage artifact. Furthermore, to account for any unforeseen circumstances, the cloth bag tied to the thigh acts as a secondary backup storage artifact

Ah, yet another splendid performance of leaves falling with sentiment while the flowing water remains indifferent

The female immortal had a large and a small wine gourd hanging from her waist, and her attire was quite simple, consisting of long pants and a short shirt. She had medium-length light brown hair, which made her a rare exception among the group of female qi refiners, who typically had flowing long hair.

The identity jade token of the elder within the gate was so easily given to a disciple of a different peak at the ninth stage of the Transformation Realm

Just relax, don't be nervous, once you leave the mountain gate, there aren't so many rules.

That being said, Jiu Jiu still spread out his celestial awareness, and before long, the speed of the large gourd flying through the air began to steadily decrease

Jiu Jiu slightly frowned, gazing at the younger generation before him who was bowing in greeting. He snorted and casually took back the jade piece.

Du Linfeng Liu Yan'er, Xiao Lingfeng Wang Qi, um... ? ... they are also among the top twenty talents of this generation, why are they all rushing to the chaotic Zhuangbao Forest? Are we being so stingy towards the young disciples within our sect?

Behind Qin Xuan, the elegant Yuan Qing said softly, "Junior sister, this time I will definitely help you find the Yan Huo Ming Xin grass"

Jiu Jiu immediately showed a look of disdain, "Then who among you can? Changshou, can you?"

The only guard at the entrance of the chaotic and treacherous Baolin in Beijulu Prefecture is her alone, which is sufficient to demonstrate her extraordinary strength

The two men and two women nearby were slightly surprised, their gazes fixed on the jade piece.

After flying for a while, Jiu Jiu couldn't help but reach for the gourd at his waist, but hesitated for a moment and then stopped. He said, "It will take another two days and three nights to fly to Beijulu Island. Are you all planning to just sit here?"

Li Changshou stood quietly, listening to the continuous sounds of breaking air from outside, as groups of disciples ascended into the sky under the protection of various immortals
