Chapter 50 The Enchanting Wine of Creation Intoxicates; Traveling Together
Hearing the two men's words, Guang Chengzi smiled and said, "There's no need for such formalities. Meeting is fate. I am Guang Chengzi. You two can just call me fellow Daoist. There's no need to call me senior or anything like that. It's too formal. Besides, I'm not necessarily older than you two."
When Guang Chengzi spoke the last sentence, he unusually carried a hint of teasing, obviously to break the deadlock. Yu Ding Zhenren and Huang Long Zhenren were both masters of the primordial caves, naturally intelligent, quick-witted, and insightful. After realizing Guang Chengzi's thoughts, they immediately changed their address to "fellow Daoist".
The three then deliberately flattered each other. What was initially thought to be an awkward conversation turned into an endless stream of topics, with the three seemingly enjoying themselves immensely. It was clear that they had found kindred spirits.
This made the two masters, who had only intended to be polite, feel favorably toward each other, and they spoke more casually. Guang Chengzi was secretly pleased, knowing that things had gone well.
As Guang Chengzi spoke, he used the Immortal Suppression Pagoda to nourish Huanglong Zhenren's natal dragon pearl. Given the Immortal Suppression Pagoda's rank...
Repairing a Mystic Dragon Pearl is naturally a very simple matter.
In no time at all, the natal dragon ball was restored to its perfect state, as if it had never been damaged in the slightest.
After doing all this, Guang Chengzi flicked his sleeve and threw the dragon pearl back to Huanglong Zhenren.
Master Huanglong was overjoyed that his natal dragon pearl had been restored so easily.
He opened his mouth and swallowed the dragon ball.
With the nourishment of his natal dragon pearl, Huanglong Zhenren, who was originally injured and looked pale, immediately looked better, and his injuries were almost completely healed. It was clear that he would be able to recover after a period of recuperation.
Huanglong Zhenren was overjoyed and immediately stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you so much, Brother Guangchengzi, for your great kindness. I will never forget your kindness."
Guang Chengzi waved his hand with a smile and personally helped Huanglong Zhenren to sit down: "It was just a small favor, nothing to mention. Brother Huanglong, you are being so formal, it's clear you consider me an outsider." This was just a joke.
Seeing his good friend's condition improve, Master Yuding was also happy, but Guangchengzi did not forget the other party and personally poured him a cup of Creation Wine.
"This wine comes from Phoenix Perch Mountain. Legend has it that it was brewed by the goddess Nuwa herself. I was fortunate enough to obtain a small jar. Now, I present this fine wine to a hero. Brother Yu Ding, your ambition to protect your brothers is truly admirable. I am deeply moved by your spirit, so I pour you a cup. I hope you take good care of yourself." Guang Chengzi asked, "Who is the goddess Nuwa? She is considered the head of all the goddesses in the primordial world. For such a being to personally brew such fine wine, it is naturally capable of reviving the dead."
It can heal even the most serious injuries instantly after drinking a cup of this medicine.
Compared to the elixirs refined by Lao Tzu, it has more nourishing effects. Drinking it regularly can cultivate a body of creation, endlessly regenerating and fully grasping the true essence of life's creation.
This was the first time that Jade Cauldron Immortal had ever seen such a divine object. Before him lay a cup of emerald-green wine, as clear as jade liquor. A wonderful, indescribable fragrance wafted from it, causing him to pick it up involuntarily. He took a gentle sniff and immediately felt that most of his injuries had eased. Knowing that this was a rare and supreme divine object, he immediately declined to drink it.
But Guang Chengzi said it was just a cup of wine, what was the big deal? If Yu Ding Zhenren didn't drink it, it meant he didn't consider him a brother, and he would have no face to face the others.
Guang Chengzi made it sound so serious that even Yu Ding Zhenren had no choice. Besides, he himself had little resistance to the wine, so he drank it down half-heartedly.
As soon as he drank it, Master Yuding felt something extremely warm and smooth slide down his throat. He did not taste the flavor of the Creation Wine. The wine was like clear water, extremely mild.
But a moment later, Master Yuding's eyes widened suddenly, for he now knew what true fortune was.
Creation is infinite and boundless, creating everything, even the unknowable chaos is within its grasp.
Everything is a product of creation, everything belongs to creation. Creation gave birth to the world, which is why it has such colors.
Nuwa, with her ingenious craftsmanship, transformed the way of creation into a jar of wine, which she then gifted to all her fellow practitioners to savor.
Now that the Mysterious Immortal Jade Cauldron has had the chance to taste a cup, he is naturally greatly shocked and cannot help but be completely immersed in this wondrous creation.
In that instant, he seemed to transform into all things in the world, feeling the green of the grass, the resilience of the trees, the drifting of the clouds, and the hardness of the earth. Everything was so different, yet so comfortable.
When Taiyi Zhenren regained his senses, he saw Guangchengzi still slowly savoring a peach blossom pastry, while his brother Huanglong Zhenren was still delighted with the restoration of his natal dragon pearl. Even the hot tea in front of him was still steaming, unchanged from before.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye!
He clearly sensed the myriad worlds, even transforming into every part of these myriad worlds to experience heaven and earth, and this only happened in an instant.
Such insights left even the Jade Cauldron Immortal completely mesmerized.
Only after he regained his last bit of focus did Yu Ding Zhenren shudder and sigh deeply, "So that's how it is, so that's how it is."
Seeing that Master Yuding had regained consciousness, Guang Chengzi smiled and asked, "I wonder what you have comprehended, my worthy brother?"
Master Yuding said, "I saw everything, and I didn't see everything; I understood the principles, and I didn't understand the principles."
Guang Chengzi didn't ask any further questions upon hearing this. He simply smiled and nodded, then pushed over a plate of pear blossoms, gesturing for him to taste them. At the same time, he poured him a cup of peach blossom wine to moisten his throat.
With a wine bag and a rice sack in hand, Guang Chengzi certainly didn't lack these fruits, wines, and snacks. He would often make them and eat them in his spare time as a way to relax.
At this moment, Huanglong Zhenren noticed Taiyi Zhenren reading scriptures in the distance and couldn't help but ask, "Brother, who is that person? Is he also a brother?"
Huanglong Zhenren, with a pure and innocent heart, regarded Guangchengzi as his elder brother and naturally treated his elder brother's brothers as his own, which is why he asked such a question.
Guang Chengzi nodded and said, "That's right. That brother is called Taiyi Zhenren, the master of the Golden Light Grotto on Qianyuan Mountain. He was feeling restless after a long period of quiet contemplation, so he came with me to travel through the prehistoric world. If you two brothers don't mind, why don't you travel with us?"
Before Master Yuding could speak, Master Huanglong preemptively replied, "That is certainly possible. Brother, you may not know, but we two were quite bored, which is why we left the cave to travel outside."
Who would have thought we'd be so unlucky as to encounter those witch tribes? If it weren't for your protection, my brother and I would likely have met with certain death. It's truly a blessing for us to be able to travel with you now."
Seeing Huanglong Zhenren's rudeness, Yuding Zhenren was also a little anxious, fearing that Guangchengzi was just being polite. As a result, the two of them took advantage of the situation and climbed up.
Just as he was about to explain, Guang Chengzi clapped his hands and laughed, saying, "Excellent, excellent! Traveling through the prehistoric world alone is ultimately boring. It would be much more interesting if we all traveled together."
Seeing that Guang Chengzi didn't seem to be joking, Yu Ding Zhenren felt relieved, but then frowned slightly and said, "It's not that I'm unwilling to travel with my elder brother, but the person my elder brother killed earlier was from the Zhu Rong tribe."
I was often favored by the innate great witch Hanba, and we often called each other brothers. I also had several witch treasures on my hands. Otherwise, Huanglong and I would not have been ambushed by him without any power to fight back.
Now that this man is dead, the drought demon will surely come to punish him. With this chariot in hand, elder brother, you need not fear the drought demon. But my Jade Spring Mountain and Huanglong's Two Immortal Mountains are different. If these two mountains are overturned, I'm afraid Huanglong and I will also be implicated.”
What he said was true. As the master of the Golden Cloud Cave Heaven of Jade Spring Mountain, True Man Jade Cauldron was truly not afraid of ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortals attacking the mountain.
Huanglong Zhenren is also the master of Magu Cave Heaven on Erxian Mountain, and is no ordinary person.
However, the drought demon was a great shaman who was skilled in moving mountains. His divine power of drying the earth and sky was so refined that he could sever all the earth veins, water veins, fire veins and all other meridians when he came to a sacred mountain.
Finally, he used the drought demon's poisonous fire to scorch the area, turning it into a barren desert. Even several grotto-heavens were destroyed by the drought demon, demonstrating just how terrifying this person was.
That's why Jade Cauldron Immortal was so worried about Jade Spring Mountain. When Yellow Dragon Immortal heard this, he also fell silent, as he was also very worried about Two Immortals Mountain.
But Guang Chengzi didn't care much about this. He reached out and clenched his fist, instantly condensing two mysterious imprints containing all the myriad things in the universe.
It is the mark of Yuqing.
