Chapter 309: Xumai Pill
Although Zhong Yi had said that Han Xu would be entertained with good wine and good food, the size of the banquet was still beyond Han Xu's imagination.
A round table large enough to seat twenty people was filled with all kinds of delicacies that Han Xu had never seen before.
All the meat is made from the meat of monsters, and all the vegetarian dishes are made from elixirs that have been used for more than a hundred years.
Moreover, all these ingredients are cooked using special cooking techniques, which not only ensures the delicious taste, but also locks the spiritual power contained in the ingredients themselves, without any waste.
In other words, eating is equivalent to practicing.
"The people in the upper world are so good at playing." Han Xu sighed in his heart. It seems that there are still many things that need to be slowly adapted to life in the upper world in the future.
"My nephew is here, please take a seat quickly." Zhong Yi was very enthusiastic and pulled Han Xu to his side.
In addition to Zhong Yi and Zhong Fu, there was an old man and a middle-aged man at the table.
Zhong Yi introduced: "This is our elder Zhong, and the other is my second brother."
Han Xu saluted and said hello. The Zhong family elder glanced at Han Xu and sighed: "Heroes really come from young."
"Mr. Zhong deserves the award."
Han Xu noticed that only this elder of the Zhong family had stepped into the semi-saint realm, and Zhong Yi was only at the peak of the unity of nature and man. As for Zhong Yi's second brother, he had just touched the realm of unity of nature and man.
Although they posed no threat to Han Xu, they still surprised Han Xu.
This is just a family in the upper world. There is a semi-saint sitting there, and its top combat power is not weaker than that of the entire Dawu Dynasty. How powerful must those powerful sect forces be.
After introducing each other, they each sat down. Zhong Yi took out a jar of wine and when he opened the seal, a rich aroma filled the air. Han Xu couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Even the smell of wine is filled with rich spiritual energy.
"This is a fine wine that has been gathering dust for hundreds of years. I only have two jars left here. Come, nephew, you're welcome." When Zhong Yi spoke, there was clearly a trace of reluctance in his eyes.
But Han Xu didn't bother to pay attention to his reluctance. Since he took it out, he naturally wanted to taste it.
Han Xu raised his head and drank it all in one gulp. Suddenly, a spiciness flowed down his throat and into his belly. After the spiciness, there was a sweet aftertaste, as if all the pores in his body had been opened, making him extremely comfortable.
"Good wine!" Han Xu praised, and then drank another glass.
Zhong Yi was stunned for a moment, and quickly filled himself up, as if he was afraid that Han Xu would drink more than him.
The elder and Zhong Yi's second brother were stunned on the spot. They were just like bystanders and had no chance to drink.
"Brother, you can drink well!" After three rounds of drinking, Zhong Yi clearly entered the state, and the title of Han Xu was changed from nephew to brother, which made Zhong Fu distressed.
"Brother Zhong!" Han Xu naturally stepped into the role and called Zhong Yi "big brother".
"Brother, if you have anything to say, just say it."
"Brother Zhong, look at this, it's my first time to go out for training and I don't understand anything. I asked Brother Zhong to give me some advice."
"That's easy to say." Zhong Yi said, "This world is the world of cultivators, a world where strength is respected. In terms of strength, this world can be divided into two categories."
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
"The first category is those sects and top families, who control most of the cultivation resources in the world. The other category is cities like Lingxu City. There are no masters above the holy realm in these cities. They are Treat it as a normal world.”
"Here, you can only be considered a person if you join a sect or one of the top families."
"That's it, but I heard from Fumei that isn't the Zhong family one of the three major families in Lingxu City? Isn't this considered strong?"
"Of course." Zhong Yi said, "Those strong men from sects and top families don't live in cities at all. They occupy various caves and blessed places in the world, and their cultivation environment is hundreds of times better than these cities. "
"Nearly all the cities here are dependent on powerful sects, and the big families in the city are also controlled by sects." Zhong Yi said helplessly, "For example, our Lingxu City is dependent on the five major Taoist sects. One of the teachings is Taiyi.”
"Our three major families are responsible for mining the Xuanjing Fruit for Taiyiyi. Taiyiyi doesn't want any of our families to dominate, so they set a rule that every three years, the younger generations of our respective families will compete with each other. The winner will get the right to mine the Xuan Jing Fruit for the next three years.”
"What is the Black Crystal Fruit? Is it so important?" Han Xu asked puzzledly. Since it can be mined on a large scale, it must not be a rare thing, so why are the three major families fighting for it? Woolen cloth?
"No way, brother, have you never heard of Xuan Jingguo?" Zhong Yi was completely convinced by Han Xu's ignorance, and believed even more that his statement that he came from the deep mountains and old forests was true.
Zhong Yi explained: "Xuanjing fruit is the main material for refining Xumai Dan. Judging from your appearance, you must not know what Xumai Dan is."
"Look, this is it." Zhong Yi opened a jade bottle and poured out a thumb-sized white elixir. The elixir was wrapped with faint threads of spiritual energy and had mysterious elixir patterns on the surface.
"After taking the Xumai Pill, the medicine can condense new tendons in the body. So you should understand its importance."
When Han Xu heard this, he was so surprised that his drunkenness subsided a lot. Gathering new tendons meant that he could practice other techniques at the same time.
No one would think of this in the lower realm, but in the upper realm, Xumai Dan is not a rare thing. Han Xu thought that when he returned, he could take some Xumai Dan with him so that the people around him could also practice other skills.
Of course, from Zhong Yi's mouth, although Xumai Dan is not a precious thing in the upper realm, the various forces have very strict control over its raw material, Xuanjing Fruit. Perhaps they want to use this method to control others to work for themselves.
In the same realm, the cultivators who have taken Xumai Dan and those who have not taken it are completely two different concepts.
In this way, Xuanjing Fruit becomes particularly important. Whoever of the three major families can master the mining rights of Xuanjing Fruit can get huge profits from it, so the three major families are trying their best to win the competition held every three years.
These are all later stories. Han Xu understands that the most urgent task is to find Mo Wen first.
"Brother Zhong, you should be familiar with Taiyi Dao, right?"
"Not bad."
"Have you ever heard of a Taoist priest named Mo Wen?"
When Zhong Yi heard Mo Wen's name, his expression suddenly changed, and even Han Xu was stunned by his sudden change.
Zhong Yi stared at Han Xu and said, "Of course I have heard of Mo Wen's name. Even the entire Lingxu City, and even the entire Five Sects of Taoism, there should be no one who doesn't know his name."
"Is he so famous?"
"Of course, he is a traitor of Taoism, and the entire Five Sects of Taoism are hunting him down."
