The tranquil night enveloped everything.
Jiang Ning took out his wine flask.
As he uncorked it, an extrely rich fragrance of wine imdiately began to perate the air.
Swish, swish—
The fishes in the lake beside him suddenly began to stir.
The ripples on the water’s surface were disrupted and spread out, transforming the once calm lake into a shimring expanse of silver scales.
Jiang Ning looked up and suddenly saw a golden-red Dragon Carp leaping out of the lake, bounding towards the shore, and landing by his feet in a few hops.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Ning couldn’t help but smile.
From Linglong’s eager actions, he could sense just how powerful the attraction of the wine in his hand was for her.
He understood this thoroughly.
Emperor’s Liquid, one of the legendary Treasure Liquids of the Demon Clan.
Consuming it could unlock wisdom and increase one’s Dao.
Linglong was a Dragon Carp.
It was naturally hard for her to resist such temptation.
Then,
he withdrew his gaze, looking down the neck of the flask at the wine inside.
The wine had long lost its original clarity.
It had completely transford into a silver liquid resembling a pale starry river, with strands of golden threads interspersed within it.
Those strands of golden threads were the true essence of the Emperor’s Liquid.
"Indeed, as ti refines, the wine’s blending with the Emperor’s Liquid has increased, condensing more of the true essence,"
Jiang Ning thought to himself as he observed the changes inside the flask.
Then,
seeing Linglong on the ground looking like she was eagerly awaiting food, a thought crossed his mind.
With a raise of his hand, he pulled a strand of golden thread from the wine flask.
Compared to the silver liquid it blended with, the Emperor’s Liquid looked more like a golden thread.
Condensed yet unscattered, slender yet unbroken.
He glanced at Linglong and flicked his finger.
The golden strand of Emperor’s Liquid entwined around his fingertip shot through the air.
Awooo—
Linglong swallowed it whole.
"Go back!" Jiang Ning commanded.
Upon hearing this,
"Swoosh!"
Linglong flicked the ground with her tail, using the force to leap into the air.
She traced a perfect arc in the air before plunging back into the shimring silver-scaled lake with a "splash."
"I wonder how much her Dao will increase with this strand of Emperor’s Liquid!"
Jiang Ning murmured to himself.
"I’ll ask her tomorrow!"
The thought crossed his mind as he withdrew his gaze, turning again to the wine flask in his hand.
This flask of wine should be enough to increase my Source Energy Points by over a thousand.
With this thought crossing his mind once more, he tilted his head back and took a hearty swig.
After several large gulps,
his body involuntarily shivered.
The silver liquid and Emperor’s Liquid coursed down his throat into his body, instantly igniting a surge of extre cold within him.
Makes him feel as though he had entered a glacial hell.
As he sensed the changes within his body,
in the next mont,
rumble, rumble—
he imdiately mobilized his entire bloodstream, letting it gallop like an untad horse, with Qi Blood Power also erupting within him like a raging fire.
The collision of cold and heat made him uneasy.
Alternating between hot and cold, repeatedly.
After a long while,
whoosh—
he exhaled a breath of white mist.
It was the condensed mist from thoroughly refining the liquid.
The white mist billowed out, and as it passed, countless ice crystals visibly ford in the air.
Where it swept across, a thin layer of frost instantly condensed, and the moisture in the grass and trees solidified at once.
He glanced again at the remaining wine in the flask, noticing much was still left.
So he swallowed and refined it one small sip at a ti.
Finally, when half was left, he stopped this action.
"Refining half should be enough for my Source Energy Points to surpass five thousand!"
Jiang Ning murmured.
He then sealed the flask again, putting it away.
Savoring the faint intoxication,
he returned to sleep.
...
The next morning,
he awakened slowly as the cool morning breeze wafted through the window lattice across his face.
Sitting up in bed, he shook his head slightly to feel clearer.
How extravagant was the strength of this wine?
Even his physique couldn’t resist it.
Jiang Ning found it sowhat unbelievable as he assessed his body’s condition.
He knew that in so sense, he had transcended the level of life itself.
With a flick of his arm, he could easily unleash tens of thousands of strength.
Such a terrifying physique, with unimaginable bodily functions.
Ordinary wine, no matter how high its potency, was no different from drinking water to him.
But last night, after consuming only a small portion of the wine, he felt a drunkenness he hadn’t experienced in a long ti.
It seed the Emperor’s Liquid had made the once ordinary wine extraordinary.
Jiang Ning pondered in his mind.
Thinking of this,
he imdiately opened his panel.
[Source Energy]: 6374
As expected, the Source Energy Points easily surpassed the five thousand mark.
Jiang Ning imdiately showed a look of delight.
Then he moved his gaze down.
Landing on the skill section.
[Skill]: Vajra Immortal Body (Perfection 10000/10000)
He imdiately frowned.
There was still no change.
It seed that to Break Limit the Vajra Immortal Body required not just five thousand Source Energy Points, but ten thousand.
With this thought passing his mind, he shook his head slightly.
Five thousand points, he could still manage sohow.
As for ten thousand points,
assistance from external sources would be necessary.
"Just in ti, tonight is the Patrol Envoy’s banquet, where so officials and wealthy rchants will surely present the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures I need!"
"If it’s not enough, I’ll think of another way!"
Having made up his mind, Jiang Ning dressed and pushed open the door.
"Master!" Lv Yi greeted with a nod upon seeing Jiang Ning.
"Heat so water, I want to take a bath!" Jiang Ning instructed.
"Alright! Master!" Lv Yi nodded repeatedly.
She imdiately put down the task of tending to the flowers and trees.
