Sky Forge Mountain, an extremely hot environment.
Zhao Huai followed Gu Tianji around the entire artifact forging mansion on the mountain, hearing about the early years of the blacksmith master Ruan Ban. Master Ruan Ban was one of the older elders in the Spiritual Mountains. The fire of Sky Forge Mountain had been burning for hundreds of years under his watch. In his early years, he was just a poor man seeking opportunities, unable to even join a sect, but he was taken in by someone from the Spiritual Mountains and stayed there, eventually finding his opportunity.
Although Master Ruan Ban never mentioned this person, Gu Tianji speculated that it was probably Ancestor Yan Zu, who had practiced in the Spiritual Mountains eight hundred years ago.
Ancestor Yan Zu’s deeds may not be known to the secular world, but which child who grew up in the Spiritual Mountains has not heard his story?
His real name is already forgotten because the word “ancestor” was an honorary title given to him by the people after his ascension, and it is unknown what his real name was.
However, the traces he left in the Spiritual Mountains are still vivid, and just like most other disciples, he once lived in this world.
Drinking wine. cultivating. and gaining enlightenment.
That’s why he inspired so many Immortal Sect disciples to yearn for.
“So Brother Zhao, what is your opportunity in the Spiritual Mountains?”
Gu Tianji smiled cheekily and turned to Zhao Huai.
“Opportunity? I don’t know either.”
Zhao Huai shook his head, indicating that he did not know.
Gu Tianji looked at the lofty immortal mountains in the distance and slowly said: “Everyone who enters the Spiritual Mountains will find their own opportunities, which is the meaning of the existence of this blessed land. You might as well stay in the Spiritual Mountains for a while, look around, walk around, find your own opportunities, and then return to the mortal world.”
“This place is beautiful with clear water and rich spiritual qi. It is indeed a good place for cultivation. But right now, Xia Country is sharpening its knives, and I don’t know how long I can stay.” Zhao Huai thought for a moment and said.
Gu Tianji nodded understandingly and seemed to remember something suddenly. He asked, “I don’t think you are a person who doesn’t drink. I know a good place to drink here. The wine is fragrant and has great benefits for the body. It’s only for acquaintances.”
Zhao Huai hesitated for a while and said, “It may not be a good idea. Drinking could cause trouble, and besides...”
After pouring a bowl of wine for each of them, Gu Tianji drank it all in one go, making exaggerated swallowing sounds with an expression of enjoyment.
Zhao Huai carefully picked up the wine, smelled it, and found that it had a rich aroma. Then he took a small sip.
The taste was slightly sweet at first, but then it became mellow, and a strong spicy flavor rushed up.
Soon, his entire Qi Sea seemed to be burning with fire.
The dormant magic power throughout his body became active.
With just one sip, his flesh body was constantly tempered by this qi fire. His magic power was also slowly increasing.
This wine has a strong aftertaste and can actually temper the flesh body. It really lives up to being brewed from dragon bones.
Zhao Huai thought to himself.
So without thinking too much, Zhao Huai also drank all of the Fire Dragon wine in his bowl.
After a while, the flames in his Qi Sea burned even more vigorously.
The wine’s effect took hold, flushing his face, and Zhao Huai felt the surge of qi and blood in his body, a sign of a possible breakthrough.
But he quickly suppressed it.
He was going to challenge the Eighth Stage of the Golden Core Realm, how could he give up halfway?
However, this wine did have quite a few benefits.
One bowl after another for the two of them.
It wasn’t long before they finished the jar of Fire Dragon wine.
Gu Tianji, unsatisfied and with a flushed face, slammed the table and shouted, “Bring more! Three more jars!”
