3179 Unfathomable Strength

Feng Jiu was tempted to leave at this point because the elderly man’s strength was unfathomable. But, she wasn’t sure what to do when she thought about the elderly man’s facial expression and the casual way he talked.

What kind of person was he, though? One thing was certain: the elderly man was the alchemist in this place. This alchemist was clearly witnessing everything that was going on, but he said nothing and instead dragged her away to drink wine.

She was a little baffled by this; exactly what did the other party want?

She returned after catching two Phoenix-tailed spirit chickens. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to leave; she just knew the elderly man wouldn’t let her go and would follow her as soon as she slipped away. Because the other party had an unfathomable strength, it’s possible that she wouldn’t notice that he was right behind her.

She couldn’t help but sigh when she thought about this. She had been outside for a long time, and the cultivators she met were not much stronger than she was. When she came here, she was surprised to meet several people who were stronger than she was.

When she returned with two Phoenix-tailed spirit chickens, she noticed the old man napping under the tree with a wine jar in his arms. “Senior, I’ve brought the Phoenix-tailed spirit chickens,” she announced.

The old man opened his eyes and smiled at Feng Jiu. “Then deal with it,” he said.

When Feng Jiu saw this, she collected the blood and two of the longest Phoenix-tailed spirit birds’ tails. Instead of making a fire with branches, she removed the feathers and the innards before packing the chickens in mud to cook the beggar’s chicken.

She used her hand to start a flame, and then she directly baked the chicken. The elderly man sat and watched with his eyes flickering. No one knew what he was thinking.

After some time had passed, she dug up the two beggar’s chickens and pried the mud open. The old man’s eyes shone as the rich fragrance spread. “It smells good!”

“Have a taste, Senior.” Feng Jiu handed him one of the chickens.

The elderly man showed no restraint. He took a pair of chopsticks from his sleeve, took out the meat and then praised its taste. “You indeed have the skill.” He poured another cup of wine for Feng Jiu as he spoke. “Come on, drink this Immortal Wine.”

Feng Jiu took a slight pause. “If this is Immortal Wine, I’m afraid a cup will get me drunk. How am I supposed to accompany Senior to drink?”

“Haha, true.” The elderly man laughed. He flipped the palm of his hand and a medicinal pill appeared. “Here, take this pill so you won’t get drunk.”

Feng Jiu’s heart skipped a beat when she saw the medicinal pill. It turned out to be a seventh-grade medicinal pill!

This elderly man took out a seventh-order medicinal pill! That was truly incredible! She took the medicinal pill, examined it, and asked, “Senior, this seventh-grade medicinal pill is extremely precious. Are you just giving it to me so easily?”

“Precious? Hahaha. Even the most precious elixir must be consumed before it can show its full potential. Otherwise, no matter how precious it is, it is useless.” The elderly man smiled as he spoke. His face was flushed with contentment as he drank immortal wine and ate beggar chicken.

When Feng Jiu heard this, her eyes lit up and her heart shook. No matter how precious a medicinal pill was, someone had to consume it for its miraculous effect to work. No matter how precious it was, someone must need it for it to be considered valuable. Few people were capable of having such a state of mind and such an attitude.

She looked at the medicinal pill in her hand before opening her mouth and swallowing it. At the same time, she picked up the wine cup and sipped the wine. The heady scent of the wine filled her nose. That wine was a true immortal wine, brimming with spirit energy.
