would not dare to try it. 。Although he had been inside the Shadowed Demon Tomb for many years, Lu Xia Tian never stopped researching this secret technique. At this time, he had a general understanding...Lu Xia Tian poured himself a cup of this qingshan wine, and a strong, sweet and bitter taste exploded in his throat.

A powerful liquor! Lu Xia Tian did not disperse the aroma with his magic power, but let out a soft exclamation. He discovered that his magic power was indeed stimulated by this alcohol, becoming strangely agitated and seemingly more active than before.

But the tremor subsided quickly.

“It seems the effect of this wine on you is rather limited.” Lu Xia Tian quickly returned to normal, looking at the sturdy young man and graceful woman with a slight hint of disappointment.

"No, impossible, this is impossible. This qingshan wine has been treasured by the younger generation for decades, and several Jindan cultivators have tried it, without exception. Now that a few spirit fruits have been added, the potency should be even stronger. Even if the senior's magical powers are mighty, it shouldn't be."

The steadfast young man suddenly shivered, looking at Lu Xiaitian with fear in his eyes. His lips trembled, and he couldn't utter a word.

"Dead drunk, what's wrong with you Senior, what did you do to the dead drunk" The delicate girl saw that the sturdy young man was like this, and she thought that he had been taught by Lu Xia Tian. She rushed forward, trembling with both fear and awe, standing in front of the sturdy young man, her expression agitated.

"No, no, senior didn't do anything to me. The reason Qing Shan Wine is useless to senior... unless senior is a Yuan Ying ancestor! Junior has met the ancestor!" The earnest young man was so excited he didn't know what to say, and he bowed down in reverence.

"There's no need." Lu Xia Tian sat there, his eyelids didn't even twitch, an invisible force directly supported the sturdy young man, preventing him from bowing down despite his efforts.

"Your Tsing Shan wine isn't completely useless. After drinking it, my magical power does fluctuate slightly, but this tiny change is only a fleeting moment for me."

"Senior, your cultivation base is that of a Nascent Soul ancestor. This junior, Qing Shan, hasn't quite mastered the art of brewing this spirit wine, so it naturally wouldn't have much effect on you." The earnest young man stammered. The graceful woman beside him was dumbfounded. Although there were many Nascent Soul cultivators in Xiang Guo, compared to other continents and cultivation regions, they were still a rare sight for ordinary low-level cultivators.

Diligent young men and graceful women were just ordinary Qi Refining cultivators, with no wealthy families or affiliations with any immortal cultivating clans. Even those powerful Golden Core cultivators didn't bother with these low-level cultivators at the bottom, let alone him. He had no spirit stones, his cultivation talent wasn't great either. Cultivators like him were as common as dust in the country of Xiang, and he didn't aspire to a good life. Instead, he made a living by brewing spirit wine, but his spirit wine recipe was not yet perfected, resulting in significant waste. Most of the wine he brewed wasn't even drinkable for himself, so naturally, he was ignored.

"So, what you're saying is that if you had enough Spirit Fruits and Spirit Herbs, you could brew even better wine With your skill as a brewer, it's not bad. Why not find a better way to make a living Even brewing for those cultivating families should be enough to avoid such hardship." Just from that single cup of wine, Lu Xiaoteng could tell that this earnest young man truly had some talent in brewing.

"Senior, this drunkard pretends to be aloof. Don't look at his abilities, they aren't great, but his temper is terrible. He refuses to serve those officials and nobles, and his brewing skills aren't very stable either. He makes good wine but is too stingy to sell it, so naturally, he becomes poorer and poorer. Even if Senior gives him better spiritual materials, there's no guarantee he can brew good wine." At this point, the elegant woman couldn't help but express a bit of resentment.

The pretty girl's words sounded like a complaint, but how could Lu Xiaoteng not hear it She was covering for the sturdy young man, worried that he would agree readily and mess up Lu Xiaoteng's business. If he angered this Nascent Soul ancestor, there would be no way to smooth things over. Even a Golden Core cultivator they couldn't afford to provoke, let alone a Nascent Soul ancestor. The other party wouldn't even need to make a move themselves; just one word from them, and their situation would be pitifully dire.

“Senior, I have also joined a few families before, but my brewing of this spirit wine is after all a shortcut. Just like an alchemist refining pills, there is a chance of success and failure. My refinement of this spirit wine, using it for brewing, will also have a considerable failure rate. Because the consumption of spiritual objects is not small, and unlike spirit pills, the time required for brewing is at least months, years, or even decades. Those people waited so long, only to receive a failed product, naturally they wouldn't look favorably upon me.”

The earnest young man said bitterly, recalling some past experiences, his complexion darkened involuntarily. Soon, the earnest young man said with a hint of indignation, "It's all those short-sighted people. When juniors experiment with spirit wine yeast in the early stages, the natural failure rate is higher, but once the spirit wine yeast shows some progress, the return on investment is thousands or even hundreds of times greater."

"What you're saying is that if you had enough resources, you could refine a better spirit wine that would satisfy the needs of Nascent Soul cultivators" Lu Xia Tian asked.

"Yes, senior! If you allow me to show my abilities, I would stake my life on it!" The earnest young man blushed, ignoring the discreet eye contact from the elegant woman. For years, he had endured scorn and even his own soulmate, who relied on him, couldn't be properly cared for. Their time together had been a hindrance to his cultivation. Previously, those who sought him out were mostly seeking superficial pleasures, with a few driven by curiosity, hoping for some unique spirit liquor. But they were all limited in their abilities, relying on mere luck.

This is a nascent soul cultivator, an existence like heaven to a diligent young man. The fact that the other party approached him, a foundation building cultivator, shows they see his talent in brewing spirit wine. At least mentally, he's different from others. Of course, more importantly, the resources controlled by the nascent soul cultivator are far beyond what he's encountered before. Perhaps, perhaps with a few more experiments, success will be within reach.

A diligent young man who had failed for too long and been looked down upon by others desperately craved success, wanting to prove himself. He also wanted to make up for the delicate woman beside him who had always put in so much effort for him.

"I don't need your lives, and I have nothing pressing to do right now. Since I have some free time, I'll give you both a chance. If you fail, it's not a big deal. But if you can truly create something useful for me, I might even consider giving you two the opportunity to form your core dantian." Lu Xiaoteng glanced at the two of them, naturally knowing what they desired most.

“Thank you, senior. However, there’s something I want to clarify beforehand. The key to improving the recipe lies in the spiritual yeast. Each type of spiritual yeast corresponds to a different type of yeast, and it might require repeated experimentation. During this process, there could be considerable waste and losses. At that time, I hope you won't blame me.” Hearing Lu Xiaitian’s words, the earnest young man trembled with excitement. With his current abilities, it would take him an incredibly long time to save up for a golden elixir pill.ians, and returned to within the bones. 。Lu Xia Tian opened his mouth and spat out seven sariras. They emerged from his mouth one after another, still transparent and colorless. 。Occasionally flashes...
