Three days later, Chen Changsheng slowly woke up. After a heavy drinking session, he didn't feel dizzy; instead, he felt inexplicably refreshed.
"What's going on? How long have I been asleep...?"
He was a bit dazed. He picked up the Creation Immortal Gourd from the ground, and after sensing his own condition, his eyes widened.
Qi Refining Sixth Layer.
He had Breakthrough just like that? And he could feel that his Foundation had become much more solid than before.
Inside his Dantian Qi Sea, the originally somewhat ethereal Spiritual Qi had almost solidified, and the Spiritual Qi reserves were nearly double what they were before.
This... did the wine change so much?
Ordinary mortal wine, when poured into it, could directly transform into Spiritual Wine, and not just any Spiritual Wine; its effects were much stronger than even a High Grade Qi Refining liquid.
Chen Changsheng immediately looked at the Creation Immortal Gourd, only to see that its appearance showed no difference from before.
He took another small sip.
Instantly, a surge of powerful Spiritual Qi, accompanied by a rich wine aroma, flowed down his throat and into his body.
Since he didn't drink much, he wasn't drunk this time. He immediately clearly felt his Meridiens rapidly circulate.
Strands of Spiritual Qi were refined and entered his Dantian Qi Sea, automatically beginning to Cultivate.
Moreover, the Cultivation Technique's circulation route had completely changed. Compared to the previous "Chen's Basic Qi Refining Art," the speed of completing one major cycle was almost twice as fast.
"This..."
Chen Changsheng's eyes widened as he incredulously felt the changes in his body.
He looked at the Creation Immortal Gourd.
No, this item, it's actually so Heaven-Defying! This is simply seizing the Creation of Heaven and Earth!
The next moment, Chen Changsheng smiled.
With such a supreme treasure in hand, wouldn't his future Cultivation path be a smooth ascent, reaching the Peak?
After understanding the function of the Creation Immortal Gourd, he immediately unsealed another jar of ordinary mortal wine.
With a thought, the Creation Immortal Gourd grew much larger, its mouth almost the size of a bowl. He directly lifted the wine jar.
And another jar of wine was poured in.
Even after all of it was poured, there was no sign of the gourd overflowing, as if it were a bottomless pit, capable of holding an unknown amount.
"Right, since ordinary mortal wine can change, will jade spring wine also change, and be even stronger?"
Chen Changsheng suddenly thought.
After all, if mortal wine poured into it could contain such immense Spiritual Qi, wouldn't jade spring wine, which already contains Spiritual Qi, be even more Heaven-Defying?
Thinking this, he immediately brought over two jars of jade spring wine. Although the Creation Immortal Gourd already contained two jars of mortal wine.
He didn't care and once again poured them all into the Creation Immortal Gourd.
There was still no sign of overflowing, but after pouring in the two jars of jade spring wine, the yellow light on the gourd's surface dimmed slightly, though it was still very faint, almost imperceptible to the naked eye.
"Let's test the effect."
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the small sip Chen Changsheng had just taken had already been refined. With a thought, the gourd shrunk and appeared in his hand. He immediately tilted his head back and took another small sip.
Instantly, a powerful surge of Spiritual Qi, infused with a rich wine aroma, once again flowed down his throat into his stomach, and his Meridiens automatically began to circulate and Cultivate again.
However, apart from the taste becoming much better, the Spiritual Qi contained within didn't change much.
"Does it only improve the wine's quality, not increase the Spiritual Qi anymore...?" Chen Changsheng generally understood.
But this was already completely sufficient for him.
After all, with his current Qi Refining Sixth Layer Realm, he could only take a tiny sip of the Spiritual Wine from the Creation Immortal Gourd at a time.
If he drank even a little more, he would immediately get drunk.
This was due to the extremely high Spiritual Qi contained within, which was more than twice as fast as his Cultivation with Spirit Stone, and he didn't even need to meditate.
It could automatically circulate the Cultivation Technique and Cultivate.
Such an effect was already outrageously strong. Moreover, after getting drunk, he seemed to be able to enter a profound and mysterious state.
He didn't know if it was a coincidence, but even the Cultivation Technique, 'Chen's Basic Qi Refining Art,' was changed.
What was this? An Epiphany, self-created Cultivation Technique? Saying that might be a bit exaggerated, but in short, all these changes.
Made Chen Changsheng almost feel like he was dreaming.
As for this brand new Cultivation Technique, Chen Changsheng temporarily didn't know its specific name. Anyway, he would just Cultivate with it for now.
The four jars of Spiritual Wine inside the gourd, at his current drinking speed, would probably last him at least a year.
And when they were finished, he could replenish them.
Thinking this, Chen Changsheng immediately felt his pressure greatly reduced. He had originally been worried that Seventh Uncle placing all the Family's hopes on him would lead to their disappointment.
But now, he didn't think that way anymore.
After all, on the path of Cultivation, besides Aptitude, one also pays attention to wealth, companions, Cultivation Technique, and Immortal Cave. Now that he had this Creation Immortal Gourd.
Firstly, 'wealth' was already solved.
Although he didn't have many Spirit Stone, with this Spiritual Wine, he almost didn't need to worry about lacking resources for Cultivation.
And as long as wealth was solved, the other aspects – companions, Cultivation Technique, and Immortal Cave – were secondary and not as crucial. Moreover, for 'Cultivation Technique,' he relied on the strange state he entered after getting drunk from the Spiritual Wine.
And had improved his Cultivation Technique quite a bit. Although his Spell and such hadn't changed, it could be considered a temporary solution.
Besides that, his Aptitude was also quite good. A dual Spiritual Root Aptitude of gold and wood was considered very good. In this desert region with scarce Cultivation resources.
His conditions had almost reached perfection.
With all this, if he didn't achieve something, it would be simply inexcusable!
Thinking this, Chen Changsheng felt increasingly cheerful. Even though the Spiritual Wine in his body hadn't been fully refined, he tilted his head back and took another sip.
How delightful, truly delightful!
Immediately, he prepared to enter seclusion, thinking of Cultivating for a year or so first. But he found that it seemed unnecessary.
After all, as long as he drank this Spiritual Wine, no matter what he was doing, unless he was practicing Spell or some other situation that required him to actively circulate his Cultivation Technique.
His Cultivation Technique would automatically circulate and Cultivate. Whether he was in seclusion or not, it was essentially the same.
As long as he wanted, he could Cultivate twelve hours a day, and in his current state, he estimated he could reach the Qi Refining Seventh Layer in less than three months.
And it would be the kind with a very solid Foundation. Plus, his Spiritual Root was good; with dual Spiritual Root Aptitude, he would almost not encounter any Bottleneck before reaching Foundation Establishment.
"Tsk, suddenly I feel that Cultivation doesn't seem that difficult..."
Chen Changsheng couldn't help but sigh.
Of course, he was being a bit like a well-fed man who doesn't understand the hunger of others. Other Cultivator weren't as lucky as him.
The Dao is arduous, fighting against Heaven, fighting against Earth, and even fighting against people. Like fish leaping through the Dragon Gate, only a handful can Cultivate to a certain level.
Many Cultivator spend their entire lives unable to reach his current Qi Refining Sixth Layer.
But with this Creation Immortal Gourd, Chen Changsheng's future Dao was within sight.
Thinking this, a smile involuntarily appeared on Chen Changsheng's lips.
At this moment.
Outside the Immortal Cave, another sound transmission talisman flew in. After receiving the message.
It was good news.
