After much hesitation, Qingyang sent a retreat signal to the alcoholic queen bee. The alcoholic queen bee was a little reluctant at first. It was under Qingyang's repeated urging that she left the ninth floor of the ancient cellar and joined the six bees on the eighth floor.
After reuniting, the seven foundation-building alcoholic bees returned to Qingyang together.
At this time, Qingyang has already reached his limit. Even if there are alcoholic bees to block the smell of alcohol, he cannot bear it for such a long time. In the final analysis, Qingyang's cultivation level is too low.
The seven blue shadows seemed to be holding something, but Qingyang's drunken eyes were hazy and his heart was anxious. All his energy was used to fight against the ubiquitous drunkenness. He was not in the mood to check carefully, so he could only take them in drunkenly.
Immortal gourd, return towards the sixth floor of the ancient cellar.
The sixth floor of the ancient cellar had long been deserted. It was quiet all around. Inside the empty hall, there were only some old wine-making facilities. Qingyang continued to go up without stopping.
The speed when coming back is much faster than when going down. As Qingyang goes up layer by layer, the concentration of alcohol around him is getting lower and lower, and the pressure on Qingyang's body is also reducing little by little. The drunkenness in Qingyang's body gradually subsides.
Yang also gradually returned to his sober state.
In just a quarter of an hour, Qingyang returned to the second floor of the ancient cellar. At this time, he had fully recovered. However, the alcoholic bee had inhaled too much alcohol and could not wake up for a while, but they
The task was also completed, Qingyang put them away casually.
After adjusting his state a little and checking that there was nothing abnormal around him, Qingyang quickly headed towards the first floor of the ancient cellar. There were many monks gathered in the main hall on the first floor of the ancient cellar, except for the dozens of monks who were arranged by the city lord's palace to make wine.
, almost all the monks who had participated in the second stage of the test were waiting here, except for Master Ziyun and the six Nascent Soul monks.
Perhaps because they have waited for too long, everyone is a little impatient, and everyone has a bad look on their face. If it is Senior Nascent Soul, everyone can just wait a little longer, but a foundation-building monk actually made a group of golden elixir monks wait for so long.
No one feels too comfortable.
But think about it, this guy can stay on the sixth floor of the ancient cellar for so long and get the first place in this link. He should not be an ordinary foundation-building monk. Maybe there is some unknown background behind him. Although most people
I feel unhappy, but I won't say anything. Those younger Nascent Soul cultivators don't care. No matter how big your background is, how can you be bigger than them?
Shi Ruyu's face darkened and he was about to get angry. Seeing this, the Baotan San people next to him rushed to speak out: "Junior brother Qingyang, why did you come back? We thought you were drunk on the seventh floor of the ancient cellar. If I hadn't known about you
I have always been a close-knit person and will not do anything that exceeds my ability. I advise everyone to wait a little longer. By this time, I might have reported to Lord Yao Yue to go down and rescue you."
Baotan Sanren and Qingyang have been working together for ten years and know many of Qingyang's secrets. Qingyang helped him before on the seventh floor of the ancient cellar, so he deliberately smoothed things over for him. Fortunately, Baotan Sanren is here, if it weren't for him
Talking to the side, if these people really informed Lord Yao Yue to go rescue people, some secrets might not be kept, and if nothing else, the alcoholic Queen Bee would definitely be exposed.
Qingyang knew that everyone must have grievances, and Baotan Sanren had already come forward. He quickly said: "Seniors, I have kept you waiting for a long time. In fact, I have been at the steps of the entrance to the eighth floor. I hesitated for a long time and did not dare to go down. It is not easy for me to come here.
, after seeing the legendary Jiuxian City Ten Thousand Years Ancient Cellar, I wanted to try the limit, but ended up wasting a little more time."
With the interruption from Baotan Sanren, Shi Ruyu's anger decreased a lot, and he just snorted coldly and said: "Hmph, a small foundation-building monk dares to try the eighth floor of the ancient cellar that only Nascent Soul monks dare to enter. It's really
You are not overestimating your capabilities, but fortunately you are self-aware and did not easily enter the eighth floor of the ancient cellar, otherwise I would have gone to collect your corpse at this time."
Qingyang is not the kind of rookie who has an impulsive personality. He is a new Foundation Establishment monk. He cannot afford to offend a Jindan monk like Shi Ruyu, not to mention that this person has the father of a Nascent Soul monk.
He couldn't afford to offend him anymore. Fortunately, there was a San Cuan from Baotan who interrupted him, so the guy's words weren't too unpleasant, so Qingyang just pretended that he didn't hear him.
At this time, Master Lone Star also smoothed things over and said: "This person can defeat many monks with his cultivation in the foundation building stage, and he has some merits in entering the passage to the eighth floor of the ancient cellar. After all, he is the first in this link.
It doesn’t matter if we wait a little longer. There is no need to worry about such small things. We can’t keep you elders waiting for a long time. Let’s go back as soon as possible.”
Others also said: "Yes, the six Nascent Soul monks are still waiting for us to report the situation. Let's go back quickly to avoid worrying them."
Shi Ruyu didn't have any hatred against Qingyang. It was just because Qingyang won the first place and stole his limelight. He was slightly dissatisfied with him, so he took the opportunity to vent. Now that someone else was trying to smooth things over, he didn't continue.
He pressed on, snorted and stepped aside.
During this second stage, although several monks fell drunk in the ancient cellar, fortunately they were followed by friends and were rescued along the way. Now the hundreds of monks who entered the ancient cellar have returned here.
, this session was finally over. Master Lone Star confirmed the number of people, and then took everyone out of the ancient cellar and back to the previous square.
This second stage took a long time, almost one day in total. However, none of the hundreds of monks in the square left. Firstly, the city lord's palace had good wine to entertain them, and secondly, they usually didn't have the chance.
Entering the City Lord's Mansion, how could they leave so easily after finally coming here? Besides, they were still waiting to see who would win the first place in the wine tasting.
There are still so many tables in the square, but the placement has changed slightly. The tables of the monks eliminated in the first round have all been moved to the back. The number of chairs in the middle is much less, with only more than 80, which is closest to the Yuanying monk.
There are only twenty of them. Judging from the quantity, they should be prepared for monks who have passed the first and second stages.
Sure enough, after Qingyang and the others arrived at the square, the stewards of the City Lord's Mansion verified the red lines on the jade slips in their hands one by one, and then led everyone to the corresponding positions. In the middle, more than 80 people who were eliminated in the second round,
The top twenty people sat on the front twenty chairs.
The wine tasting party was just a private party in the city lord's mansion to drink with friends. The competition was not that strong. The top twenty people sat casually and there was no special ranking. However, everyone knew that the first place was not a descendant of Yuanying, nor was it Jin.
He is a monk in the late stage of Dan, but a monk who has perfected his foundation.
