Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 1099 - 459: Wine Immortal Spirit Wine (2)

Lin Xuankong instantly recognized this familiar voice. It came from Elder Chi Liuxia of the Wine Immortal Sect, the one he had met near the border upon first arriving in the Western Region of the Central Divine Dynasty. Astonishingly, this Fifth-Grade Earth Immortal, Chi Liuxia, marked the very first Earth Immortal Lin Xuankong had ever crossed paths with across the whole Immortal Realm!

"Elder Chi, please come in—no need for such courtesy, just enter!" Lin Xuankong turned toward the cave dwelling entrance and called out. He spotted his old acquaintance, the Fifth-Grade Earth Immortal Chi Liuxia, approaching while carrying two jars.

The Wine Immortal Sect elder had yet to draw near,

when Immortal Lord Guang, Guangqing Immortal Sect's mightiest Immortal Lord, couldn't resist twitching her delicate nose and remarked with mild astonishment:

"What a fragrant wine aroma! What sort of wine fills these two jars? The scent is so浓郁 and captivating, far surpassing the thousand-year Spirit Fruit wine I savored at Guangqing Immortal Sect!"

Elder Chi Liuxia hurried forward, set the two jars on the table, and saluted with cupped hands. "Answering Immortal Lord Guang, our sect's founding ancestor brewed these two jars of premium wine from three thousand six hundred Spirit Fruit varieties over a century. Aged in the Wine Immortal Sect's wine array for nearly four hundred thousand years, they boast an unmatched fragrance, of course!"

At these words, Immortal Lord Guang's eyes sparkled. She leaned in toward the table, pressed her dainty nose close to the jars, inhaled deeply, and revealed a faintly dazed expression. "Ah! The aroma truly overwhelms. Breaking the seal would likely send this mesmerizing scent wafting over dozens of Spirit Peaks in your sect!"

This freshly elevated Strongest Immortal Lord of Guangqing Immortal Sect looked poised to crack open the seal on the spot for an immediate taste!

Wine Immortal Sect's Elder Chi Liuxia displayed exceptional pride before this Strongest Immortal Lord powerhouse. "Our Wine Immortal Sect is only a modest faction in the Central Divine Dynasty's Western Region. Against elite Human Race immortal sects like Guangqing Immortal Sect, we lag vastly in heritage and might. Yet in brewing mastery, we stand peerless throughout the Immortal Realm!

Indeed, from our sect's establishment, Wine Immortal Sect cultivators have trod the path via wine, boosting their Immortal Yuan and speeding cultivation with diverse spirit fruit wines.

What's more, these two jars of Celestial Immortal Drunk represent our founding ancestor's crowning achievements. He originally crafted twelve jars of spirit wine using three thousand six hundred Spirit Fruit types. Now, after four hundred thousand years, just these two jars survive!"

"Ah, spirit wine aged four hundred thousand years from three thousand six hundred Spirit Fruit types truly merits the Celestial Immortal Drunk name. Premier sects such as Guangqing Immortal Sect, Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect, Luo Water Immortal Sect, and Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect lack such legendary spirit wine matured for four hundred thousand years!"

These words drew endless praise from Guang Yu'er.

Still, her radiant eyes stayed locked on those two jars of exquisite wine. Her look hinted she might lunge for them at any instant!

Enveloped in the potent wine fragrance, Lin Xuankong nodded faintly,

wine aged a solid four hundred thousand years... In his past life, Lin Xuankong's rarest wines endured mere decades at most. Scouring all of Blue Star, no jar over a century old could be found. Besides, even if Blue Star hosted a long-aged brew, it would spoil completely after a hundred years. After all, Blue Star wasn't the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm, devoid of Spiritual Qi or special arrays to preserve such splendid wine across hundreds of thousands of years!

Yet deeper reflection sparked Lin Xuankong's curiosity. "Such invaluable spirit wine must vastly aid countless Earth Immortals' cultivation in the Wine Immortal Sect. Circulated in the world, this brew aged merely four hundred thousand years would rival an Immortal Artifact! So why has Elder Chi suddenly delivered these two jars of Celestial Immortal Drunk?"

Before Chi Liuxia had a chance to respond, the Strongest Immortal Lord Guang Yu’er erupted in laughter, "Isn’t it plain to see? I, Great Success Jade Bright Bodhisattva, and the Qilin Race Elder Clan Leader are all present here, but this elder of the Wine Immortal Sect didn’t deliver the exquisite wine to us three—instead, he brought it straight to you, Profound Void. Evidently, he seeks a favor from you and plans to trade this Celestial Immortal Drunk for an Immortal Artifact!"

With those words, Guang Yu’er turned to Chi Liuxia, arched an eyebrow, and questioned, "Isn’t that the case?"

Chi Liuxia gave a faint headshake, his gaze earnest as he replied, "Immortal Lord Guang’s speculation holds merit too, for prior to your arrival alongside Immortal Lin, Elder Yaan of the Luo Water Immortal Sect had already come to our Wine Immortal Sect. Employing countless First-Grade Immortal Artifacts forged by Immortal Lin, he deployed three layers of the Luo Water Array across our sect.

What merit does our Wine Immortal Sect possess to receive such generous aid from Elder Yaan of the Luo Water Immortal Sect without offering anything back?

Besides, Immortal Lin stands as Elder Yaan’s sole True Disciple, his cherished protégé. Sect Master Mao Rong instructed me to deliver these two jars of Celestial Immortal Drunk expressly to show thanks for the support from both Elder Yaan and Immortal Lin! Amid the fierce Immortal Demon War, our sect’s defenses have been vastly bolstered by Elder Yaan’s arrays and Immortal Lin’s refined Immortal Artifacts! As for these two jars of wine, they serve merely as a gesture of thanks for Immortal Lin’s Immortal Artifacts. Their worth pales beside all those First-Grade Immortal Artifacts, making them just a modest token of our appreciation!"

Upon Chi Liuxia’s clarification,

the Strongest Immortal Lord Guang Yu’er’s face lit up instantly, "Then these two jars of Celestial Immortal Drunk are truly meant for Profound Void—what fantastic news!"

Chi Liuxia offered a respectful bow before pressing on:

"On top of that, there’s one more thing!

While traveling from the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect to the Wine Immortal Sect, I caught the Qilin Race Elder Clan Leader saying that Immortal Lin had asked the Black Tortoise Race’s Elder Clan Leader for over a hundred thousand catties of Demon King Essence Blood!

Within the Human Race of the Central Province Immortal Realm, scarce few in cultivation demand Demon King Essence Blood. To my knowledge, only the Longevity Technique of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect calls for such vast quantities!

This piques my curiosity—might Immortal Lin be planning to practice the Longevity Technique from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect?"

Facing this prudent and forthright old friend, Lin Xuankong felt no need to conceal the truth. He nodded and admitted, "That’s correct; through some lucky breaks, I acquired that Immortal Technique from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect. I approached the Black Tortoise Race’s Elder Clan Leader precisely for that Demon King Essence Blood. Yet I’m intrigued—Elder Chi went out of his way to deliver two jars of Celestial Immortal Drunk and then brought this up. Is there a link between this Celestial Immortal Drunk, the Black Tortoise Race’s Demon King Essence Blood, and the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect’s Immortal Technique?"

Chi Liuxia bobbed his head vigorously, "Immortal Lin’s insight is as sharp as ever!

The spirit wines of our Wine Immortal Sect, brewed from spirit fruits, pair perfectly with cultivating that Immortal Technique from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect—particularly this supreme Celestial Immortal Drunk! Across the years, Immortals from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect have frequented our sect, bartering heaps of Profound Truth Jade for our spirit wines to aid their cultivation!

My master once noted that those Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect Immortals insisted pairing Demon King Essence Blood with Wine Immortal Sect spirit fruits during that Longevity Technique’s practice dramatically boosts its potency!"

At these words, Lin Xuankong’s countenance shifted subtly,

At present, his sole worry remained the Celestial Demon Power—the Curse of Time wielded by the Demon Child Gang Bone of the Profound Yin Demon Sect, despite his lifespan having ballooned to a horrifying degree, dwarfing any longevity seeds in the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm by endless margins!

After all, it stems from the Celestial Demon Power of the Supreme Origin Realm's Ancient Celestial Demon Thousand Illusion Saint Monarch. Confronting such a terrifying Immortal Technique from the Upper Realm demands endless preparation!

However, Lin Xuankong currently has no methods to boost his Lifespan limit any further in the short term......
