The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 133 Purple-Gold Red Gourd Monkey Spirit Wine

As for that purple-gold-red gourd (imitation), in the game you can directly put the little demons into the gourd, shake it a few times, and kill a little demon in about ten seconds.

For Li Jingxiao, it would be faster to kill the little demon in a few moves.

Moreover, the gourd couldn't handle the two bosses, the Fine Ghost and the Clever Insect.

It seems rather useless.

But Li Jingxiao soon discovered that this gourd was an extraordinary treasure in reality.

In a village at level 20, a liquor store appears.

They sell Fenjiu, Dukang, Shaodaozi, and Houerjiu inside.

When Li Jingxiao thought about wine, he knew it had always been an essential item.

My first thought was that I could go into the wine business in the future.

I bought a jar of each of the four types of wine, took a few sips to try them out, and sure enough, the monkey wine tasted the best.

I bought 10 jars, planning to bring them back to the real world so that my wife, Qin Keqing, could also try them.

Just as I was about to exit the game, I noticed the purple-gold gourd.

On a whim, he poured all ten jars of monkey wine, each weighing a hundred catties, into the purple-gold red gourd.

Moreover, in reality, upon opening the lid of the red gourd, one can smell a fragrance of wine mixed with a hint of spiritual energy emanating from it.

When you drink it, this monkey wine actually seems to carry a hint of magic.

Upon further practice, the cultivation speed of the Longevity and Immortality Technique actually increased by one point.

After much deliberation, Li Jingxiao finally guessed that it was probably because he had used the red gourd to capture several flower fairies for experiments.

When those flower fairies were being refined inside the gourd, a surge of spiritual energy was stored within it.

Then it enters the monkey wine and becomes the spirit wine.

Li Jingxiao was overjoyed, and his mind returned to the game.

He directed the little game character out of the village, picked up the purple-gold-red gourd, and shouted "Collect!" at a flower fairy.

After waiting for 10 seconds, the flower fairy was refined, and the game character also gained experience.

When I took another sip of the monkey wine from the red gourd, it indeed seemed to have gained a touch of magic.

As a result, Li Jingxiao spent the entire morning directing the game's system, constantly using the red gourd to refine the monsters on the map.

However, the spiritual energy of monsters like rabbit demons and rat spirits after being refined is far less than that of flower demons.

Li Jingxiao thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure out why, so he just gave up.

Anyway, there are plenty of flower fairies in the game.

It wasn't until it had refined over a hundred flower fairies that the red gourd indicated its spiritual energy storage was full.

In reality, after taking another sip of the spiritual wine, one meditates and cultivates the Longevity and Immortality Technique.

The speed was indeed much faster.

After spending a considerable amount of time conducting experiments, Li Jingxiao finally confirmed that one sip of this liquor was equivalent to one point of proficiency.

One mouthful is roughly equal to one ounce.

Even if there is some error, it is not significant.

Li Jingxiao was overjoyed.

He spent an afternoon hiding in his office, drinking seven or eight ounces of Monkey Spirit Wine in a few gulps, and meditating to cultivate the Longevity and Immortality Technique.

In the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, you gain 8 points of proficiency.

From a small score of 374/500, it rose to 382/500.

What Li Jingxiao didn't realize was that, in the eyes of outsiders, his alcohol tolerance was astonishingly high.

No one would object to calling him "the Wine Immortal".

But he knew it was nothing more than cheating.

Most of the alcohol, once it enters your mouth, doesn't actually go into your stomach; instead, it ends up in your game inventory.

Li Jingxiao's actual alcohol tolerance was only three to five jin (1.5-2.5 kg).

This is still based on his physical condition, which has reached 16 points, making it 1.6 times that of a normal adult male.

Otherwise, his previous alcohol tolerance was probably only a little over 2 jin (1 catties).

Moreover, most of the alcoholic beverages of that era had an alcohol content of only around 30%.

Twice more, after drinking about seven or eight ounces of Monkey Spirit Wine, I successfully gained 17 points of proficiency in meditation.

(399/500)

Just as Li Jingxiao was in a very good mood, he slowly began to realize that he seemed to be getting a little drunk.

My first thought was that something was wrong with my body.

After getting used to cheating, I felt like I couldn't get drunk anymore.

Realizing this, Li Jingxiao shook his head with a helpless smile.

Fortunately, his physical fitness is 1.6 times that of an average person, which also greatly improves his ability to sober up.

After meditating until 5 p.m., I achieved a proficiency level of 9 (408/500) through the practice of the Longevity and Immortality Technique.

The effects of the alcohol have also subsided considerably.

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, the smell of alcohol on his breath was inevitably noticeable to those around him.

However, with the help of the Monkey Spirit Wine, Li Jingxiao did a quick calculation and figured he should be able to cultivate the Longevity and Immortality Technique to the proficiency level by tomorrow.

Although I had previously planned to practice the Lightning Thunder Fist first, and then the Sword Control Technique.

But since it only takes one day to cultivate the Longevity Technique to the third level of mastery.

Li Jingxiao naturally didn't care about this little bit of time.

I found a 'golden thread wrapped in red silk rope' in the town of the new level 20 game map and tied it to the purple-gold red gourd.

You can carry it directly in your hand or hang it on your waist.

Li Jingxiao will definitely become an alcoholic in the future.

Of course, most of the time, this gourd will actually be placed in the inventory.

As long as he takes out his liquor from time to time in front of others, everyone will eventually know that Li Jingxiao is a heavy drinker.

Gradually, no one cared anymore.

When I rode past Zhenwu Temple, there was indeed no one queuing outside.

He had previously instructed Jia Heng to post a notice stating that he was working in the palace and had very little free time.

He can only hold clinics on the 7th, 17th and 27th of each month.

As for the Palace Guards, there's no need to worry about the cavalrymen who were injured during training.

After reporting for duty at the yamen every day, Li Jingxiao would spend half an hour administering medicine to the cavalrymen.

Upon returning home, before even entering the house, the gatekeepers curiously observed the gourd in their master's hand.

Moreover, the products produced by games are always visually appealing.

The purple-gold and red gourd has shimmering purple-gold patterns, making it look extraordinary.

It then fell into the hands of Li Jingxiao, a highly accomplished Taoist master.

It appears increasingly extraordinary.

The servants bowed to Li Jingxiao, and after he left, they all began to discuss what kind of treasure the master was holding in the gourd.

Unfortunately, Erfu and his close guards didn't know where the gourd came from.

It is said that when the master left the yamen, he had that treasure in his hand, but no one knew where it came from.

But this only makes people feel that the gourd is a treasure even more.

Li Jingxiao swaggered into the central courtyard and saw Qin Keqing accompanied by three maids, Jingxi, Jingyue, and Jingrong, as well as Baozhu, Ruizhu, and several personal maids.

When Qin Keqing saw him return, she quickly bowed and said, "Master is back."

Li Jingxiao smiled and nodded, reached out to help his wife up, and gestured towards the three Jingxi sisters.

Qin Keqing secretly covered her mouth and chuckled, then whispered, "My lord, my three younger sisters think the old house isn't lively enough."

"I sent someone over at noon today to inquire, and that's when I made the decision to bring my three cousins ​​over." Since my three cousins ​​wanted to stay with me, it was indeed difficult for Qin Keqing, as their sister-in-law, to refuse.

Lee Kyung-hyo smiled and nodded, adding, "Thank you for your hard work, Madam."

He then smiled and said to Jingxi and the other two, "It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early."

After saying that, he shook the purple-gold gourd in his hand a few times.

After attracting the attention of his wife and sisters, he took the lead and entered the hall.

Sitting in the main seat, he said with a smile, "This is Monkey Spirit Wine, a spirit wine brewed by spirit monkeys in the mountains from spirit fruits they collect."

"Taking just a small sip, followed by practicing Taoist internal energy cultivation, is enough to equal ten to fifteen days of cultivation for an ordinary person."

However, among the three Jingxi sisters, only Jingxi had begun to cultivate the techniques in Volume One of the "True Martial Qi Cultivation and Response Manual".

In other words, the only people who can drink are Jingxi, Qin Keqing, Baozhu, and Ruizhu.

Jingyue and Jingrong were immediately filled with dissatisfaction and envy.

He hugged Lee Kyung-hyo, the older brother, and insisted on having a taste too.

Lee Kyung-hyo would have to be insane to let an 8-year-old and a 4-year-old drink alcohol.

Moreover, without cultivating internal energy techniques, one cannot refine the spiritual wine after drinking it, and it will most likely be harmful to the body.

So this time the refusal was very decisive.

Fortunately, she was a girl, and after some explanation, Jingyue and Jingrong stopped pouting and nagging about wanting to drink.

Baozhu and Ruizhu personally took four wine glasses and watched as Li Jingxiao poured half a glass for each of them, filling the room with the aroma of wine.

Moreover, just smelling it is enough to invigorate one's spirits.

That alone makes one think that this must be a treasure.

Qin Keqing, Baozhu, Ruizhu, and Jingxi nervously and carefully raised their wine glasses and glanced at Li Jingxiao.

He nodded affirmatively.

He then drank it all in one gulp, and then hurriedly sat down on the prepared meditation cushion to practice his breathing.

Qin Keqing had been cultivating the "True Martial Qi Refining and Sensing Chapter" for so long that she had already reached the peak of the entry level.

However, he is different from Li Jingxiao. Li Jingxiao has a system, so there is no such thing as a level when he cultivates.

But for Qin Keqing and the others, cultivation was not the most difficult thing.

The key is to unblock the meridians in the body.

But after drinking the Monkey Spirit Wine, Qin Keqing quickly realized that a surge of spiritual energy within her body was constantly transforming into true energy, surging wildly through her meridians.

He quickly focused his mind, absorbed the spiritual energy, and then began to activate his meridians and acupoints according to the cultivation method.

In just a short while, several acupoints were opened, and the "True Martial Qi Cultivation and Sensing Chapter" was successfully upgraded from the beginner level to the minor completion level.

The internal energy within his body also surged dramatically.

Li Jingxiao only looked at his wife for a while before he could tell that she had already broken through.

Qin Keqing continued to circulate her internal energy for three more cycles to stabilize her current state before happily opening her eyes.

When she looked at Li Jingxiao, her eyes were full of tenderness.

Li Jingxiao chuckled and pulled his wife aside to carefully inquire about and instruct her on the key points and taboos of cultivation.

After talking for a while, Baozhu, Ruizhu, and Jingxi finished absorbing the spiritual energy from the monkey wine.

Each of them has made great progress in their skills.

The precious pearl and the auspicious pearl are only a hair's breadth apart; both can open up the meridians and enter the minor completion realm.

As for Jingxi, as long as she drinks a sip of Monkey Spirit Wine every now and then, she should be able to make a breakthrough.

After finishing their meal, Qin Keqing, Baozhu, and Ruizhu practically wanted to feed their husbands the food directly into their mouths.

Jingxi also had a great appetite, while only Jingyue and Jingrong were somewhat sullen and had no appetite.

After the meal, Jingyue hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't help but speak to Li Jingxiao.

"Brother, I also want to cultivate the True Martial Qi Refining and Sensing Manual. Please teach me."

Li Jingxiao thought about it and realized that his second sister was already 8 years old, so it wasn't too early for her to start practicing internal energy cultivation techniques.

"I'll have your sister-in-law teach you tomorrow. I just want to drink Monkey Spirit Wine. We'll talk about it when you're a little older."

To avoid letting them drink alcohol at such a young age and harming their health.

Jing Yue pouted and nodded. Fortunately, although she couldn't drink the spiritual wine, she could cultivate internal energy techniques, which could be considered as fulfilling her wish.

This made Jingrong even more upset.

Unfortunately, even though the little guy cried, he couldn't change Li Jingxiao's decision.

He could only honestly continue practicing long fist and light body techniques.

When it was time to rest at night, the three girls went back to the backyard to sleep, while Qin Keqing, Baozhu, and Ruizhu served their husbands wholeheartedly.

Gaining 200 experience points shows just how enthusiastic and hardworking the three of them were tonight.

The next morning, naturally, I couldn't get out of bed.

Li Jingxiao even regretted it a little; he shouldn't have taken it once last night.

Then he played a second game with his wife and servants.

Now things are even worse; the loss is even greater if the wife can't get out of bed.

Li Jingxiao could only practice his fist and sword techniques and lightness skills while waiting for his wife, Baozhu, and Ruizhu to get up.

Incidentally, they also checked whether the three Jingxi sisters had diligently practiced swordsmanship, fist techniques, and basic light-body skills at the old house during the Lunar New Year.

Fortunately, even Jing Rong, who likes to slack off, is much more skilled than before when he practices Zhenwu Changquan and basic light skills.

Jingyue and Jingxi also performed well.

Hearing their eldest brother's praise, the three sisters couldn't help but smile with pride.

After having breakfast, Li Jingxiao did not rush to the Palace Guard Office outside the palace to report for duty.

Instead, he went to the study to draw talismans. When his three wives got up and came to the study, Li Jingxiao asked with a smile.

"But you want to test your improved internal strength by exchanging a few moves with me after your internal energy has greatly increased, and see the effect of the improvement?"

Qin Keqing nodded hurriedly.

Li Jingxiao also tried to hold back as much as possible to avoid winning too quickly and greatly dampening Qin Keqing's enthusiasm for practice.

After losing five times in a row, Qin Keqing pouted and refused to play anymore.

Li Jingxiao shook his head helplessly; if you want to gain experience, you have to win.

After gaining 250 experience points, I naturally played three rounds each with Baozhu and Ruizhu.

Another 150 experience points gained, level 20 (630/4000).

Only then did Li Jingxiao leave for work at the Palace Guard Office.

Because it was the first month of the lunar calendar, the training of the Imperial Guards was also canceled and would resume after the Lantern Festival.

No one needs medical treatment today, so Li Jingxiao can focus on his cultivation.

After drinking a few sips of Monkey Spirit Wine, plus the experience gained from meditation, I can get about 10 points per hour.

When I left the palace at 5 p.m., my Longevity Technique had increased from the initial stage (408/500) to (478/500).

That evening, after dinner, Li Jingxiao chatted with his wife and three sisters for a while to help them digest.

Only then did he go to his study to continue his cultivation.

Around 10 PM, the Longevity Technique successfully advanced to the Mastery level (1/2000).
The amount of true energy in his body has increased by at least double.

The speed of circulating qi was also at least twice as fast, which means that the speed of replenishing qi after it was consumed was twice as fast.

The more you fight, the more abundant your internal energy may become.

As for its power, the Longevity and Immortality Technique is extremely yang and vigorous; even its original name was 'Pure Yang Supreme Technique'.

Just from the name, you can tell this skill is incredibly powerful.

Originally, it was not suitable for women to practice, but Tianshan Tonglao was ambitious and reversed the Yang Gong, cultivating it into Yin Gong.

He even gave himself the name "The Supreme Skill of the Eight Desolations and Six Directions".
