The two sides inevitably engaged in another round of unproductive flattery and modesty.
A lot was said, but none of it was useful.
In fact, there was no need for them to say anything. Chu Lingxiao and Yu Qingyi had already settled the matter, and what followed was just procedural. They were rely tool characters.
Li Qingyang and Li Qingyue did not co to discuss the specifics of the marriage process, only to express their stance.
...
In the following two days, many guests arrived at Yang Family Town, so from the Illusion Moon Sect, and others from different families. Yang Zhenshan didn’t greet them personally but let Yang Chengzhi do the honors.
However, today, two guests arrived, whom Yang Zhenshan had to greet personally.
Lan Peng and Lu Youning had co!
Old friends visiting required personal hospitality from Yang Zhenshan.
"Haha, why have you two co together!"
Outside the conference hall, Yang Zhenshan laughed while looking at Lan Peng and Lu Youning as they arrived side by side.
"Oh dear, now that you’re a Foundation Establishnt True Man, Lan doesn’t dare to visit lightly!" Lan Peng said with a laugh.
"Co now, Old Lan, I don’t like that kind of talk. As brothers, such formal words are unnecessary!" Yang Zhenshan feigned anger.
As for Lan Peng, Yang Zhenshan held genuine feelings.
In the Sea of Spirit, Lan Peng was like Zhou Lan to him back in Chongshan Town.
Back then, Zhou Lan often lent him help in Chongshan Town, and previously in the Sea of Spirit, Lan Peng also took good care of him.
Both were considered his benefactors.
"Hahaha~~ Brother Yang, we are here to drink your wine!" Lan Peng laughed heartily.
"What are we waiting for? Let’s drink!"
With a wave of his sleeve, Yang Zhenshan had people prepare the food and drinks.
Then the three began toasting, drinking to their hearts’ content.
Lu Youning was clearly a bit hesitant around him, whereas Lan Peng remained as bold as ever, not letting any differences in cultivation create barriers.
With the third round of drinks and five flavors of dishes, Lan Peng’s face turned red.
"Hoo~~ This Drunken Immortal Brew is strong indeed!"
"Of course, this is freshly brewed Drunken Immortal Brew, not only made with Drunken Immortal Herb but also infused with a lot of Spirit Wine Essence!" Yang Zhenshan was also slightly tipsy.
What they called Spirit Wine Essence was actually alcohol, distilled and purified.
Alcohol doesn’t have much effect on Innate Martial Artists; a Grand Circulation of True Yuan within the body can dissipate most of the alcohol in the blood.
But high-proof liquor combined with Drunken Immortal Herb was different. Its potency was extraordinary, even overwhelming for Heavenly Gang Stage martial artists like Lan Peng.
Once they had drunk enough, Lan Peng spoke of their real purpose, "This ti we’ve co to let you know that we’ll be entering closed-door cultivation to break through soon!"
"Oh, do you have enough Spiritual Objects? If there’s anything you’re still lacking, I can lend you so!" Yang Zhenshan said.
He said lend instead of gift, which did not make him seem overbearing.
Lan Peng, sowhat intoxicated, waved his hand, "No need, all necessary Spiritual Objects have been prepared long ago. We wouldn’t have held off if we weren’t confident enough!"
Breaking through wasn’t a trivial matter and could potentially lead to life and death parting.
Lan Peng’s visit was to rekindle old bonds, should his breakthrough fail and he loses his life, he hoped Yang Zhenshan would rember their friendship and look after the Lan family.
Yang Zhenshan thought for a mont and took out two porcelain bottles.
"In that case, I’ll lend you two Elixirs! The top-grade Jade Marrow Pill can quickly replenish a great amount of Spiritual Power. If you feel a lack of montum during your breakthrough, you can take this pill!"
Martial Artists’ Spirit Base Casting and Golden Body formation differ from Immortal Cultivators’ Foundation Establishnt. The Foundation Establishnt Pill is not the best choice for them.
Previously, Yang Zhenshan gave the Foundation Establishnt Pill to Liang Shengze purely as a desperate asure, treating him like a dead horse brought back to life.
The Foundation Establishnt Pill also caused considerable damage to Liang Shengze, nearly destroying his Dantian.
Compared to the Foundation Establishnt Pill, the top-grade Jade Marrow Pill is more suitable for Martial Artists to use for Spirit Base Casting. Its effects are mild, and it contains abundant Spiritual Energy. If the failure of Spirit Base Casting is caused by the lack of quality Spiritual Objects, the top-grade Jade Marrow Pill can make up for the missing Spiritual Energy.
This is the experience summarized over the years at the Spirit Source Land.
"This~~" Lan Peng hesitated.
Yang Zhenshan directly pushed the porcelain bottles into his and Lu Youning’s hands, "Take them, no need to be courteous. Each is three thousand Spirit Stones; you can repay the Spirit Stones after you’ve broken through!"
"Then I won’t be courteous!" Lan Peng laughed out loud.
...
After seeing off Lan Peng and Lu Youning, Yang Zhenshan returned to the Spirit Source Land.
He first ditated for three days, bringing his body and mind to peak condition, and then entered the Pill Hall to refine the last batch of Turtle Breath Pills.
Turtle Breath Pills were not very useful to him nor to the Spirit Source Land, but through refining Turtle Breath Pills, Yang Zhenshan’s alchemy skills improved significantly.
Thus, he was very dedicated to refining Turtle Breath Pills.
After everything was prepared, Zhang Hexuan stood outside the hall to observe. Yang Zhenshan signaled with a glance to the Golden Crow, which understood imdiately and spewed a mouthful of True Sun Fire.
The scorching fla burned intensely, as if about to lt the entire Pill Hall.
Yet, the Golden Crow Eight Trigrams Furnace remained as steady as a mountain amidst the fiery blaze.
Yang Zhenshan threw various dicinal herbs into the pill furnace, focusing all his attention on observing the changes within the furnace.
The herbs quickly condensed into pure dicinal liquid, and Yang Zhenshan imdiately enveloped the Mystic Turtle’s essence blood with his Heart Hand, cautiously blending it with the dicinal liquid in the furnace.
Minute by minute, ti passed, and Yang Zhenshan’s forehead was soon glistening with fine beads of sweat.
