Chapter 157 Peace Of Mind

Fang Yuan was speechless when he saw that Wine Zhenren seemed to be immersed in his own world. He could only sit and accompany him.

After waiting for a long time, Wine Zhenren finally realized that this was not his place!

“Aiyo, I really didn’t pay attention, I was lost in my thoughts!”

“Just remembering my matters, Fang Yuan, you still have to prepare for the upcoming competition, go back quickly!”

After rejecting Wine Zhenren’s repeated requests to escort him back to the Gu Immortal Sect’s base, Fang Yuan could not rest assured about the safety of his fellow disciples, so he quickly rushed back.

Even though this was Yan Shen Empire and it was unlikely to be dangerous, he still had to be cautious…

After seeing that the rest of the group was safe and sound, Fang Yuan heaved a sigh of relief.

After bidding farewell to the idea of everyone pulling him to a group banquet, Fang Yuan told them.

Such a large gathering was held after this Gu Dao convention ended, so only after getting an accurate answer did they leave.

After returning to his room, Fang Yuan took out the wine that Wine Zhenren had given him previously. Because Fang Yuan did not carry the appropriate equipment to hold the hundred flowers brew, in the end, he still took his spare cup under Wine Zhenren’s pained gaze.

According to Wine Zhenren, this was the basic quality of a wine lover!

Different types of wine would have to be stored in different equipment, so that when they were tasted, they would still be able to produce the most distinctive and unique taste!

And according to Wine Zhenren’s idea, the hundred flowers brew should be placed in warm jade, not even Gu worms, because Gu worms would not be able to control their instincts, and would always produce some other smells and tastes.

This would cause the final taste to be vastly different!

Fang Yuan did not hesitate at all as he held the cup made of lustrous and warm jade in his hand!

Did he like to drink wine?

Of course, but that was when he was relaxing!

And now, the most important problem he faced was to increase his strength! The Tranquil Acupoints Gu was originally meant to consolidate his acupoints and would be used later, but this hundred flowers brew…

It seemed to have no use other than selling for money? Was it used to satisfy his appetite?

Thinking of the price of the authentic hundred flowers brew, Fang Yuan still felt that it would be better to sell it.

Wait a minute!

Previously, the Drunken Gu’s behavior…

Fang Yuan recalled that it was because of the Drunken Gu’s abnormal behavior that he found Wine Daoist!

That meant that the Drunken Gu was actually reacting to the hundred flowers brew! Thinking of this, Fang Yuan thought of the Drunken Gu’s (Intoxicated Rage] skill.

Then, could it…

Fang Yuan carefully summoned the Drunken Gu, this mysterious Gu worm with a unique wine-brewing and wine-storing organ at its

tail.

Due to Wine Zhenren’s previous actions, the Drunken Gu’s tail was obviously empty, and the Gu worm itself was a little tired.

But after it appeared, it sniffed the air twice and suddenly felt refreshed.

Like a customer who smelled the delicious food on a street corner, it felt its entire body filled with strength!

Then, when it was still in Fang Yuan’s hand, it crawled forward with all its strength, and at the same time, it gave Fang Yuan an endless stream of desire!

That… that…

Fang Yuan looked at the Drunken Gu’s actions and the impulse that came from it, and subconsciously moved the Drunken Gu closer to the warm jade cup.

Then, Fang Yuan saw that the Drunken Gu actually crawled into the cup and opened its mouth!

The wine was clearly many times the volume of its own body, but under the Drunken Gu’s continuous actions, it began to drop rapidly!

One, two… ten seconds!

Finished!

The total time it took was less than ten seconds, and the pot of expensive hundred flowers brew was already exhausted!

Then, while Fang Yuan was still in a daze, the Drunken Gu had already fallen into the warm jade pot. It was drunk!

Fang Yuan looked at everything that happened in his hands speechlessly.

Then, the system’s voice sounded.

(Ding, your Drunken Gu has absorbed a large amount of hundred flowers brew wine and is beginning to evolve. Success rate has reached 60%!)

[Ding, your Drunken Gu has absorbed a large amount of hundred flowers brew wine and has begun to evolve. The skill (Intoxicated Rage] has been changed, triggering the effect of doubling the power!]

Two notifications came in succession, and Fang Yuan’s heart was instantly beaming with joy.

It was like someone giving him a pillow when he was dozing off!

Just as he was thinking of increasing his own strength, his strength had increased, and along with it, his own Gu worm had also leveled up.

If that was the case, then his chances of winning the next round would be even greater!

The night was still very long.

Fang Yuan walked alone to the residence provided by Yan Shen Empire, wandering around aimlessly.

Even if he wanted to experience this peaceful night, he wanted to see the capital differently.

He walked out of his room, wandering without a destination.

This place assigned to the Gu Immortal Sect disciples was a standard residence.

Other than the residence, there were also many gardens and lakes behind.

Right now, other than himself, everyone should be in their own rooms, right?

Fang Yuan smiled, continuing his journey alone.

Not far away was the lake, and beside the shore, there was a boat and a pair of oars. Fang Yuan gradually became addicted to this dust-free sky, thinking of the night sky in that world when he was young.

However, everything changed after that.

Fang Yuan lay on the small boat and did not move the paddle. He exerted a little strength, and the small boat arrived at the center of the lake.

The surroundings were quiet, and his eyes were filled with the starry sky.

Fang Yuan’s soul gradually calmed down. This was the tranquility that seeped into his soul.

At this time, even without Fang Yuan’s instructions, the Gu worm had already started to move!

In fact, if not for the system’s reminder, Fang Yuan would not have noticed it.

That was because he had already sunk into nostalgia for his past life, the place that he could only think about now, the place where there were only mortals and there was no cultivation, but where civilization flourished!

The Tranquil Acupoints Gu that he had just obtained at night had actually started moving by itself!

“Hint, because the host has entered a deep state of peace of mind, this deep state is extremely beneficial to the host. Thus, to help the host grow better, the system has entered a state of silence!”

“Hint, unless an extremely important event occurs, the state of silence will not be lifted!”

“The following contents will be recorded and will not be broadcasted!”

“The system has detected that the Tranquil Acupoints Gu has started to act on its own, system check… the current abnormality of the Tranquil Acupoints Gu is due to the chain reaction caused by the host’s own state.”

“System report: the Tranquil Acupoints Gu has entered a certain evolution state due to the tranquility of the host’s mind, the Gu’s performance is expected to increase one time…”
