He had heard of Qiong Qi.
However, the Qiong Qi that he knew was notorious and only liked to be with villains.
So what did Qiong Qi have to do with this child?
"What do you think will happen if we let Qiong Qi raise a human child?" The old man looked at Jiang Lan and asked with a smile.
Jiang Lan thought for a moment before shaking his head.
Although he had some guesses, he did not say anything.
"It will have bloodline effects and the child will more or less have some of Qiong Qi's characteristics." The elder took out a plate of peanuts and continued,
"With the emergence of primordial chaos, ferocious beasts were born into this world. As they had seized the good fortune of the world, it was difficult for time to leave any traces on their bodies.
It was extremely normal for a dream to last thousands of years and for one to live hundreds of years. "
Jiang Lan was shocked, but he didn't say anything.
In other words, because of Qiong Qi's bloodline, the teenager watching the shop could not grow like a normal person?
Other people age a year every year, but he would only age a year after a thousand years?
From this, Jiang Lan learned one thing. This elder was definitely not simple.
After all, he dared to say such things casually and didn't care about anything else.
"This is for you." The old man pushed the plate of peanuts to Jiang Lan and asked curiously,
"Right. Which peak are you from?"
"I'm the Ninth Summit's personal disciple, Jiang Lan," Jiang Lan said respectfully in a low voice.
"The Ninth Summit?" The old man was slightly surprised, but then he felt relieved.
"No wonder."
Then the old man put away the plate of peanuts and smiled.
"I'm no longer giving you these peanuts."
Jiang Lan was silent.
He did not quite understand.
Did this senior have any conflict with the Ninth Summit?
Or did he have a grudge with Master?
Jiang Lan didn't know.
But he didn't care.
Then, he quietly retreated to a corner and sat down, waiting for the good wine to be ready.
Fortunately, the other party did not say that he would not sell him alcohol.
After sitting down, Jiang Lan immediately started to get down to business.
One of the main reasons for coming here was to sign in.
Soon, he heard the system's voice.
[Ding!]
[Signed in successfully. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the gift of the Great Dao. You've obtained the immortal wine, Bejeweled Nectar Wine.]
[Bejeweled Nectar Wine: Ten-year nectar, hundred-year good wine, thousand-year immortal brew. You'll be drunk for three years with one drop, dream for ten years with one mouthful, forget a hundred years with one bottle.
After waking up from a dream, your Essence Soul will be clear as you enter the void to search for the immortal gate.]
After the system's voice disappeared, Jiang Lan finally understood what the introduction meant.
"Does this mean I can cultivate the Void Refinement stage after drinking this Bejeweled Nectar Wine?"
Jiang Lan was in disbelief, but he checked the Bejeweled Nectar Wine. There was only one mouthful of wine.
Was this a mouthful or a bottle?
If he counted this as one bottle, would he be drunk for a hundred years?
He would be able to cultivate the Void Refinement Stage in a hundred years?
It did not seem like a loss.
But…
"Can't be sure if it's possible to reach the Void Refinement realm at any time, or if it's only possible after perfecting the Essence Soul realm."
The introduction was not clear enough. He needed to figure it out himself.
If he made a mistake, he would miss the opportunity to break through the bottleneck.
But no matter what, this wine was very useful to him, although it could not compare to the Creation Pill.
After that, Jiang Lan didn't pay much attention to it and didn't ask anyone for the time being. He would check for more information first.
In theory, this was an opportunity for him to break through to the Void Refinement stage.
However, it might take a hundred years.
Especially if it's achieving Major Perfection in a hundred years while being drunk throughout.
It didn't seem feasible to him.
Without thinking too much, Jiang Lan closed his eyes, his heart calm.
At this moment, it was as if he was sitting on a clear lake without any ripples.
In this state, Jiang Lan could wait for a long, long time.
He was neither arrogant nor rash.
Drip!
The sound of ripples suddenly entered Jiang Lan's senses.
He didn't open his eyes, but he could suddenly see the inn.
Or perhaps the inn had broken into his heart and replaced his lake.
Jiang Lan "looked" towards the counter.
He saw the owner holding a wine bottle and signaling to him.
As if to say, "Your wine is ready."
The next moment, the inn disappeared and Jiang Lan returned to the calm lake.
Confused, Jiang Lan opened his eyes.
Then, he heard the boss's voice.
"Come over here to pay."
Hearing the voice, Jiang Lan stood up and walked over.
However, he was a little shocked.
"Impressive. He actually entered my mind without anyone knowing."
"If he wanted to kill me…"
Jiang Lan felt that there was no way he could avoid that.
Indeed, it was too dangerous at the foot of the mountain.
There were plenty of people that concealed their cultivation.
However, Jiang Lan didn't show it on his face. Instead, he went to the counter and paid with Spirit Stones.
"Two bottles of good wine. Take them." The boss smiled.
Jiang Lan kept the wine after taking them.
He was planning to leave once he said his thanks.
Unknowingly, it was getting dark.
Perhaps his return this time would not be smooth.
He needed to be prepared.
"Big Brother, wait." Just as Jiang Lan reached the door, the young man handed over a small bag containing a lot of peanuts.
Jiang Lan was stunned. There were more peanuts in here than on the plate earlier.
"This is…" Jiang Lan was confused.
"It's for Big Brother. Your wine will taste just right with these peanuts," the young man explained.
Actually, what Jiang Lan wanted to ask was, why did he give it to him?
When he looked over at the counter, he saw that the old man, the owner of the inn, was cleaning up with his head lowered.
Helpless, Jiang Lan took the peanuts and thanked him.
"Thank you."
After Jiang Lan left, the old man looked up.
"Amazing, amazing. Mo Zhengdong accepted an incredible disciple."
