The Age of the Gods
"Um."
Bai Qiuran paused, then suddenly asked, "Can you tell which period of the Divine Age this is?"
Let me see...
Wisdom Immortal carefully examined the Vast Land before him, then said, "It should be at the end of the Age of Divine Age, during the reign of Eastern Emperor Taiyi... Thank goodness, although it has fallen to the worst situation, it is at least the best of the worst."
"You're so optimistic."
Bai Qiuran pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "So, the last Heavenly Emperor, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, is still alive and ruling the world, right?"
Wisdom Immortal glanced at it and replied, "Yes, the last Heavenly Emperor seems to still be alive."
That means the Human Race hasn't started a rebellion yet.
Bai Qiuran clenched his fist and said, "The First-Generation Heaven's Envy hasn't appeared yet. Now that I've come to this era, can I go and find the First-Generation Heaven's Envy... and then have him teach me how to Foundation Establishment?"
"Hmm? That makes sense."
Wisdom Immortal paused for a moment, then said, "Indeed, this is the best method given my inability to find out any information about the First-Generation Heaven's Envy. I also want to see just who the first Heaven's Envy really was."
"Alright, then the next strategy is decided."
Bai Qiuran raised her hand and pointed to the sky.
"Let's set a small goal first: find the first generation's Heaven's Envy."
"The goal is good, but Old Bai..."
After hesitating for a moment, Wisdom Immortal said, "I think you should try to put on some clothes now. Although the Human Race of this era are ignorant, they are not completely naked."
Bai Qiuran never expected that she would end up naked during her exploration of the Land Where Gods Fell.
Generally speaking, his clothes are protected by True Qi, but it seems that ordinary cloth clothing is no match for his body. Even with the enhancement of True Qi, the clothes cannot withstand the ravages of the Void Storm.
The clothes were just something I bought casually at a clothing store down the mountain, so it didn't matter if they got damaged. But the problem was that, because of her confidence, Bai Qiuran didn't bring any spare clothes in her Storage Bag.
He originally intended to bring it along, but he couldn't use the magic that prevented Cultivators from getting dirty, so Li Jinyao volunteered to clean his clothes.
So now, Bai Qiuran found himself in a very awkward situation. Under Wisdom Immortal's guidance, he had no choice but to run into the forest and, like a savage, kill two strange creatures that looked like both leopards and bears with his bare hands. He skinned them and hastily made a pair of leather shorts, which barely covered his shame.
If Su Xiangxue were here, that would be wonderful. With the Hehuan Sect Master's craftsmanship, sewing a robe out of this fur would be a piece of cake. Miss Li would also be able to do it; she probably wouldn't mind sewing a garment for her senior... Ruowei, this child comes from royalty, would she be capable of such delicate work?
Having been in the Divine Age for less than an hour, Bai Qiuran's mind was already wandering.
"You look absolutely hilarious right now. If I still had hands and feet, I'd definitely find a Recording Stone to remember what you look like."
Bai Qiuran reattached Wisdom Immortal with animal sinew and hung it on her lower back. As it swayed, it teased, "I thought you were so skillful when you were forging weapons, but how come you become so clumsy when it comes to this kind of manual work?"
"I haven't specifically trained for this, and besides, nobody's perfect; there are always things I'm not good at..."
Bai Qiuran and said, "Later, please take me to find two Strange Beasts whose materials I can use for refining weapons, so I can refine another piece of clothing."
The two walked through the forest. Since no one knew the way in this era, Bai Qiuran simply threw a stick at random and chose a direction to walk in.
After walking for a while, Bai Qiuran suddenly smelled a strange fragrance.
"This is..."
Bai Qiuran and exclaimed in surprise, "Fruit wine?"
Having wine is equivalent to having people. In this era, although those who brew wine are not necessarily Human Race, they are at least a race with advanced intelligence.
Through their interactions with them, Bai Qiuran and Wisdom Immortal were able to obtain some basic information. Although Wisdom Immortal's Great Wisdom was very useful, it was not omnipotent after all, and some basic knowledge still needed to be acquired through communication.
Even if the opponent is a race hostile to Human Race, Bai Qiuran is not afraid. After all, if the other party has any complaints, they can express them with their fists.
Following the scent, Bai Qiuran strode quickly through the forest, leaving several Strange Beasts that wanted to prey on him far behind. Then, he came to a cliff. On the edge of the protruding cliff, there grew a strange tree. This tree had no flowers or leaves, but instead had some pitcher-like sacs on its branches, from which the fragrance emanated.
"What? It's a tree..."
Bai Qiuran sighed in disappointment.
"What kind of tree? Let me see!"
The inquisitive Wisdom Immortal shook her head impatiently at the Book of Questions and shouted.
Bai Qiuran took it down and faced the tree. Wisdom Immortal looked at it for two minutes and said, "Oh, this tree is called the Nectar Tree. The sacs in the tree absorb Spirit Qi and produce Immortal Wine rich in energy. Both its taste and color are the finest fruit wine. After drinking it, Mortals can even prolong their lives. It is also planted on a large scale in the Heavenly Emperor's garden."
"Wine that isn't brewed by humans, no matter how delicious, is useless to me. I'm not Huangfu Feng."
Bai Qiuran sighed.
"At least you can drink some of the fine wine that the Heavenly Gods of the Divine Age drink, and quench your thirst."
"That's what Wisdom Immortal said."
Bai Qiuran thought it made sense, so he went to the Nectar Tree and lifted the pouch hanging on it.
A rich fragrance wafted over, and inside the pouch, the crystal-clear nectar swayed gently with Bai Qiuran's movements. Just smelling it made one's mouth water.
Seeing the fine wine, Bai Qiuran's initially displeased mood eased somewhat. He leaned over and drank the wine from his pouch in one gulp.
A delicious taste he had never experienced before flooded his mouth, stimulating every cell on his tongue. The sweet wine was fragrant but did not burn his throat. On the contrary, as the wine flowed down his throat, it brought a cooling sensation that spread outwards, making him feel slightly warm.
Bai Qiuran looked up, clicked his tongue, and exclaimed, "Good wine!"
He climbed up the tree and very decisively drank all the liquid from the entire Nectar Tree.
After doing this, the two continued on their way, traveling in the same direction for about an hour.
When the two reached the bank of a fast-flowing river, Bai Qiuran suddenly clutched her stomach and cried out, "Wait, something's wrong!"
