The Six Saints to the Sky Wine couldnt be changed to the Two Saints to the Sky Wine. Zhang Ruochen wasnt as shameless as the Crazy Alcoholic.

However, even if they found the recipe, they would need a sect leader skilled in the Alcohol Way to brew it.

The Crazy Alcoholic claimed that he was a master in brewery and Zhang Ruochen believed him for now. After all, the old man was indeed knowledgeable in alcohol. He might really be an expert brewer.

Anyway, Zhang Ruochen had both the recipe and the Mercury Gourd. He could have the Crazy Alcoholic try after they left the Yin Yang Sea. If the Crazy Alcoholic couldnt do it, Zhang Ruochen could find a master of the Alcohol Way.

I heard that the true form of the Mercury Gourd is the size of a star. The inside must be extremely vast.

Zhang Ruochen stared at the gourds opening. Closing his eyes, a beam of saint soul power eased out. It formed a figure the size of a rice grain before him.

That was a saint soul body. It possessed the same intelligence and knowledge as Zhang Ruochen, and had part of his strength too. With Zhang Ruochens current cultivation, he could even shrink himself to this size.

However, Zhang Ruochen wasnt sure about the environment inside the Mercury Gourd. He naturally wouldnt run into it by himself.

I want to go see too.

The Crazy Alcoholic also formed a saint soul body. Transforming into a speck of light, he followed closely after Zhang Ruochen and flew into the gourd.

Once inside, he was met with heavy water Spiritual Qi. It was like white clouds.

This is really a cultivation paradise. Cultivating in the gourd is like cultivating on the Dead Soul Ancient Ship. Its dozens of times faster than usual.

Zhang Ruochen could feel water Spiritual Qi enter his body continuously, nourishing his body. The Holy Qi within his Sea of Qi also grew heavier. The feeling was indescribably nice.

Suddenly, the water Spiritual Qi grew chaotic. Dense bolts of lightning appeared, accompanied by deafening thunder. It was filled with danger.

Zhang Ruochens reaction speed was very fast. His body kept changing and he quickly passed through the storm area. He continued flying for a long while before finally landing on an island formed by jade.

This river was more than 800 miles long. The liquid wasnt waterit was water spiritual saintly liquid. The water Spiritual Qi had come from this river.

The Crazy Alcoholics saint soul body descended from the sky. Coming to the island, he sighed. Only this bit of saintly liquid is left.

Zhang Ruochen looked at the boundless river underfoot. He couldnt even describe how impressed he was, but the Crazy Alcoholic came and said something like this. Only this bit, he said, feeling speechless. This is only a little bit? This is a huge river of saintly liquid!

In legends, the saintly liquid in the Mercury Gourd when it was first taken should be more than 1,000 times more than what you see now.

It was preserved from the middle ages and this much could be retained, Zhang Ruochen said, chuckling. Its already impressive. The water saintly liquid of Martial City and Black Market are supplied by the Xinsu Sect and they buy it drop by drop. If the cultivators could see such a huge river, theyd go crazy.

Saints could use Holy Qi to condense into saintly liquid. However, that was artificial. Both its purity and grade couldnt be compared to the natural saintly liquid in the Mercury Gourd.

The Crazy Alcoholic laughed. Actually, if you turn the Mercury Gourd into a saint weapon and create a weapon spirit, it can absorb Spiritual Qi automatically. Then itll convert it into saintly liquid inside. However, the new saintly liquid can only count as artificial. Itll be a bit lower in quality.

This Mercury Gourd has only been refined once. Its very flexible still. If you find a weapon master, you can totally produce a powerful saint weapon. There are not many masters who can refine the Mercury Gourd in the entire Kunluns Field. Coincidentally, I know one. Zhang Ruochen, do you want me to introduce him to you?

No, Zhang Ruochen said.

First, he knew a weapon master too. He didnt need the Crazy Alcoholics introduction. Second, he didnt plan on turning the Mercury Gourd into a saint weapon. He prepared to wait until he was more knowledgeable in time and space. Then he would turn the Mercury Gourd into a time-space item.

To Zhang Ruochen, the Mercury Gourd was the best material for producing a time-space item.

Fine. Dont come begging me later.

The Crazy Alcoholic huffed. Not wanting to bother with Zhang Ruochen, he waved his sleeves and flew out of the gourd in a streak of light.

Zhang Ruochens saint soul body investigated the Mercury Gourd closely. After confirming there was no danger, he flew out of the gourd and re-entered his true body.

The Mercury Gourd is an optimal cultivation land, he said. Ill prepare to go in and try for the middle level.

After tempering his body, saintly source, and Holy Qi with the Jingmie Divine Fire, all the flawed energy within him was refined. Zhang Ruochens cultivation could be stabilized quickly. He could try for a breakthrough now.

Before, he would have had to spend a few months to clear out the flawed energy and stabilize his saintly source and Holy Qi. After receiving the Jingmie Divine Fire, it could be said that he would no longer have to spend time to stabilize his power. His cultivation could improve quickly.

Youre trying for a breakthrough so soon? You entered the Saint Realm not long ago, right?

The Crazy Alcoholic was shocked. After studying Zhang Ruochen, he recovered.

Back then, it took me four years to go from the lower to upper Saint Realm. Its been so fast already. Ah! Comparing people will really piss you off. Go in and try for a breakthrough without worry. Hand the Mercury Gourd to me. I will definitely protect you.

Zhang Ruochen stared at him with hesitation.

Why are you looking at me like that? I swore to never do an evil thing in this life and you still wont give the Mercury Gourd to me? The Crazy Alcoholic stood with his hands on his hips. Smoke came out of his nose in anger. He felt that Zhang Ruochen was doubting his character.

Im only worried, Zhang Ruochen said. You might be tempted by a treasure in the Abandoned Deep Sea and try to enter some death zones. Youd kill me too. After all, the higher your cultivation, the more likely youll die in the Yin Yang Sea.

Dont worry. My cultivation cant be compared to those impressive thousand-year fellows, but Im at least top ten in saving myself. You should know, its almost impossible to survive Empress Chi Yaos sword, but Im one of the few who did. You should know how powerful I am now, right?

The Crazy Alcoholic jutted his chin out. Instead of feeling shame, he thought that he was very impressive.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and didnt say anything else, just telling the Crazy Alcoholic to help find Huang Yanchen and the others. Then Zhang Ruochen used the Spatial Move. He stepped forward, going past a layer of ripples and entering the Mercury Gourd.

No wonder hes the Time and Space Descendant. As long as there are no spatial restraint formations, he can go anywhere in the world with ease.

The Crazy Alcoholic was envious. Taking the Mercury Gourd, he hung it on his hip and steered the ice mountain forward quickly.

Inside the gourd, on the jade island.

Come out.

Zhang Ruochen pointed forward. Silver roots extended out of his body, crawling along the jade island to the white water.

The roots were too dense. They covered the entire island.

Whoosh!

A huge green vine flew out of Zhang Ruochens back. Like a huge dragon, it rushed tens of thousands of feet above the water. There was a beautiful flower at the top of the vine. With a rain of light, it bent down, appearing before Zhang Ruochen.

There was a beautiful woman in the flower. Her skin was as white as goat fat and her figure was slender with the right curves. Her long hair tumbled down like a waterfall. A pair of spirited yet gentle eyes stared at Zhang Ruochen. The tempting red lips opened.

Master, my current cultivation is only enough to fight half an Absolute Land Saint. If I can absorb enough saintly liquid, Ill be able to fight with a true Absolute Land Saint.

Zhang Ruochen put his hands behind his back. I let you out so you can absorb saintly liquid and reach new heights.

Thank you, Master.

The Holy Carnivorous Flowers voice was flirtatious. She blinked her left eye as if purposely tempting Zhang Ruochen. With a lovely laugh, the beautiful flower flew out and started absorbing the saintly liquid in the river.

The Immortal Goddess is close to the Absolute Land Realm. The Siming Goddess of the Earth God Temple and Immortal Goddess both have immeasurable abilities and strange, unpredictable methods. In addition, there are some powerful figures that still havent come out. Theyre very troublesome.

Zhang Ruochen didnt want to have to escape whenever he met them. Thus, he desperately wanted to improve himself and become stronger.

Afterward, hed be able to fight them squarely.

As long as I reach the middle level, Ill be able to counter Absolute Land Saints.

He sat down cross-legged and formed a print with his hands. Holy Qi rushed through him with loud booms. It was like thousands of rivers crashing through him.

Whoosh

One hundred and forty-four Holy Qi bridges rose up above the river. They rushed into the 144 apertures on Zhang Ruochens body, making the booming sounds inside him even louder.
