"... That's enough." True Lord Suiyun slowly nodded and stopped discussing the topic.
She simply handed over the cup in her hand once more. "This is top-grade Ice Flame Bone Wine, brewed with spiritual fire and ice flames supplemented with the tendons and bones of an eighth-order Demon Beast. It is a superior tonic. One sip and you will never forget it."
Bai Lan's eyelids twitched.
Is today unforgettable, or is today the end?
If it were brewed from the bones and tendons of a Rank 1 Demon Beast, she would drink it without hesitation.
The wine, brewed from the bones and tendons of an eighth-tier Demon Beast, also contains a trace of ice and flame power. One sip and a massive amount of spiritual energy from the wine floods into the lungs... Whether one dies or not is another matter, but it will definitely lead to another frantic save-saving frenzy.
"If you want to cultivate my Purple Firmament Heart Method, your physical body must undergo the dual tempering of extreme lightning and ice flames. If you are unwilling to drink this cup of wine... your adoptive mother will be heartbroken. Alas." True Lord Suiyun lowered his eyes, and seeing that Bai Lan still did not react, he seemed to be about to raise his hand to pour the wine in the cup into the pool.
She never intended for Bai Lan to drink this wine from the beginning, since her Foundation Establishment stage cultivation level was not strong enough to withstand its effects.
It's not easy for her to find a promising talent who can withstand the Purple Firmament True Fire with the body of a Qi Refining cultivator, and she doesn't want to kill him off so easily.
The best approach is to proceed gradually, step by step.
Pour the wine into the Lightning Pool to temper her body. Repeat this for half a month, and it will surely have miraculous effects.
Once she gets used to it, she can take it drop by drop from time to time...
"Slow!"
Seeing that True Lord Suiyun was about to tilt his wine cup to pour the Ice Flame Bone Wine into the Lightning Pool, Bai Lan hurriedly spoke up to stop him.
She wasn't silent because she didn't want to drink, but to save her game! And to mentally prepare herself for the excruciating pain that was about to strike.
This glass of wine is worth half a portion of the Stone Milkwort elixir; you might as well drink it!
Pouring it into the pool would certainly make it easier for her to absorb, but in a sense, the Lightning Pool would also dilute most of the spiritual energy in the wine in the cup, which is a huge loss no matter how you look at it!
Under the questioning gaze of True Lord Suiyun, Bai Lan took the wine cup from her hand, tilted her head back, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Hmm?" True Lord Suiyun was surprised, not expecting Bai Lan to be so decisive, and then his expression became complicated for a moment.
She just drank it like that?
She had just taken in her goddaughter, and now she was about to perish... True Lord Suiyun fell into deep thought, his expression showing a hint of regret.
The strong liquor went down my throat, and before the spiciness had faded, its aftereffects swept over me like ice and fire, like a tidal wave, and a surge of spiritual energy immediately flowed into my body.
" Bai Lan, you don't want to live anymore?!" Elder Fu exclaimed in shock, "Oh no, oh no, oh no! If you die, there won't be a single living person within a radius of ten miles except for the two of you. If someone doesn't possess me, I'll truly vanish into thin air this time..."
Elder Fu had even started thinking about a way out, since no one knew that Bai Lan was a formidable person who could bite into Stone Milkwort.
Bai Lan had no time to care about the thoughts of this soul and this person. At this moment, her eyes were closed, and her conscious mind was constantly saving and loading data, struggling to guide the spiritual power to circulate smoothly within her body.
This wine was even more potent than Bai Lan had anticipated. Although the Stone Milkwort elixir contained a vast amount of spiritual energy, its spiritual energy was pure. The only problem to solve after swallowing it was to guide the spiritual energy and prevent the meridians from breaking.
However, this Ice Flame Bone Wine not only contains a trace of ice flame, but also carries a bit of the frenzied energy of an eighth-order Demon Beast.
Therefore, even though Bai Lan tried her best to clear her meridians, she still suffered minor injuries because several of her meridians were broken by this turbulent place.
A little blood spilled from the corner of Bai Lan's lips, but her aura only intensified.
As a massive amount of spiritual energy surged into her body, the bottleneck of her Foundation Establishment Level 4 cultivation quickly loosened. As the spiritual energy circulating throughout her body broke through the bottleneck, Bai Lan's aura surged. After breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Level, her cultivation even showed a faint trend of continuing to rise.
The expression on the face of the person and the soul changed.
They thought Bai Lan would self-destruct less than a breath after drinking the wine, but they didn't expect her to last so long and even manage to break through.
It wasn't like struggling repeatedly on the edge of death, but rather like breaking through with ease.
Elder Fu thought to himself that Bai Lan was a monster, and gradually withdrew his Divine Sense, which had been searching for an escape route, and slowly focused his attention on her.
Even the usually nonchalant and playful True Lord Suiyun standing to the side, unusually abandoned his usual carefree and mocking smile, and his expression became unusually serious. "My son Bai Lan truly has the potential to ascend to immortality..."
Their relationship gradually took an unexpected turn.
If Bai Lan were to perish today, True Lord Suiyun would surely place her skull at the top of his collection, and have people wipe it clean and carefully protect it every day.
Judging from the current situation, Bai Lan is not only a child who can withstand heat, but also has meridians stronger than ordinary people.
Thinking of this, True Lord Suiyun stopped standing by and slowly raised his hand, placing his index finger between Bai Lan's eyebrows. He then probed into Bai Lan's body with his Divine Sense and began to help her disperse her spiritual energy.
The intervention of True Lord Suiyun greatly reduced the pressure on Bai Lan.
After swallowing a cup of Ice Flame Bone Wine, Bai Lan's cultivation level rose three levels in just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, reaching the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment stage and entering the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.
If she didn't step in to help and continued to watch her adopted daughter struggle in misery, Bai Lan would start to suspect that this woman had some strange fetish.
"Ordinary cultivators would find it extremely difficult to withstand such a powerful spiritual energy impact, yet your meridians are exceptionally wide. How could this be?" True Lord Suiyun seeing Bai Lan's aura gradually stabilize.
Bai Ling and Long Aotian both possess this naturally broad and powerful physique, but Bai Lan is not naturally gifted; she developed it through repeated training.
"Thank you for your help, godmother."
"I like you more and more. I've seen all sorts of juniors, but you are the most resilient low-level cultivator I've ever met." True Lord Suiyun said with satisfaction, "Entrusting the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion to someone with such great fortune as you was indeed the wisest choice."
A person of great fortune? This woman must have misunderstood something! Bai Lan was afraid that when she was undergoing her tribulation, the Heavenly Dao would unleash a double dose of lightning upon her.
However, Bai Lan was too exhausted to refute or explain at this moment, as the time it took for an incense stick to burn had already depleted all her energy.
She barely opened her mouth before a wave of dizziness washed over her, and she fainted before she could utter a single word.
Meanwhile, outside the Demon Demonic Palace the Far Demon Demonic Path, several Nascent Soul cultivators were facing off.
The Ghost Spirit Old Mother, dressed in black, stood behind a wronged-looking Lan Ning, her expression furious. " He Gui! You get out here!!!"
