Half an Hour of Struggle
As long as there is enough water, there will be enough wine.
The many ladies of Jade Pool Palace didn't care about the medicinal properties of the Nine Treasures Wine; instead, they were somewhat fascinated by the alcohol.
This forced Zhang Xuezhou to add water several times during the brewing process.
Zhang Xuezhou didn't add water one ladleful at a time; instead, he chose a tall wooden bucket, and Sha Li and others carried buckets of spiritual spring water from Jade Pool.
This gives Nine Treasures Wine a unique and fragrant aroma.
Zhang Xuezhou felt that Nine Treasures Wine seemed to have something extra about it; while the alcohol's potency remained, it could also keep one somewhat sober.
As the time for the shuttle approached, Zhang Xuezhou drank quite a bit.
Regardless of whether the Nine Treasures Wine had the original effects, he had to drink it anyway; what happened afterward was another matter.
Lacking in quality, Zhang Xuezhou is currently compensating by increasing quantity.
Whether due to their profound cultivation or their special demonic bodies, the many goddesses drank at the brewery for two days, while Zhang Xuezhou drank until his stomach was bloated as the time approached.
"No, Your Majesties, I can't hold my liquor well enough, my body can't take it!"
Having entered the Western Kunlun Holy Land, Zhang Xuezhou no longer needed to worry about dying there.
As long as he didn't fall to Zhu Shiyin, Zhang Xuezhou felt his safety was 100%.
He thought about Zhu Shiyin, who had changed his name to Jiang Qi, then pondered the Emperor and Empress, then looked at the many goddesses lying, standing, and sitting while drinking, and then turned to the Golden Toad Dharma King and Sha Li.
"You two brew the wine well. If you run out of water, add some more. Brew for another twelve days and twelve nights, and make plenty for the ladies!"
Zhang Xuezhou patted the Golden Toad Dharma King, whose face was flushed, and then patted Sha Li's excessively muscular demon body before finding an open space.
He tumbled down, quietly awaiting the arrival of time travel.
Although Zhang Xuezhou's mind wasn't entirely clear, he was well aware that the time when he would lose control of his body was approaching.
For Zhang Xuezhou, who dislikes being on time, he has never liked to leave things until the last minute, so as not to be caught off guard and make things worse when the time comes.
At this point, he entrusted the matter to the Golden Toad Dharma King and Sha Li, made proper arrangements for the goddesses in the brewery, and then found himself a place to lie down and rest. Zhang Xuezhou felt that was enough.
"They didn't return to the Wondrous Dharma Palace?"
Only when Zhang Xuezhou was in a daze did he hear the Emperor's whispered voice.
He felt a dizzying sensation in his mind, accompanied by the sounds of wind and lightning, and the thoughts of Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.
Later, the numerous voices sounded like monks chanting sutras, and Zhang Xuezhou felt his mind filled with countless echoes.
Compared to the past when the world would change the moment he opened his eyes, this time Zhang Xuezhou felt as if he were drifting in a boundless sea, with darkness covering everything. His body swayed back and forth with the waves, and he would occasionally choke on water.
"Immortal!"
"Damn it, it's blocking my way to the upper realm!"
Faintly, there could be the ever-present whispers of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, and the Emperor's rage.
Zhang Xuezhou felt as if his mind had become a battlefield where several parties were vying for supremacy.
The good thing is that the Emperor was chasing the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, and the even better thing is that Zuo Luo implanted a chip in his brain. This chip caused the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon to fight Zuo Luo, and now it has become an isolator to protect Zhang Xuezhou.
Despite the repeated setbacks, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he was not greatly affected.
He was still intoxicated, somewhat sober yet somewhat confused, and the overwhelming sensation from the clash between the Emperor and the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon only made Zhang Xuezhou feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Ugh~"
Being drunk and constantly acting out is never a good thing, and Zhang Xuezhou ultimately couldn't hold on any longer.
As he was about to spit it out, he felt the darkness around him recede like a tide, and the feeling of drunkenness and turmoil quickly disappeared.
After gagging, Zhang Xuezhou felt a sudden brightness before his eyes.
"You woke up half an hour later than usual this time!"
Did your symptoms worsen?
"We brought over four vials of the X864 drug from the Aomeijia Alliance. Do you think we need to administer it immediately?"
"My dad and I have spent the last ten days or so revising the content that leads from Chapter Six to Chapter Seven, and the success rate is about ten percent. Would you like to take a look and see if it works? If not, we'll revise it!"
Zhang Manqian and Ren Anran's voices came at the same time, and Zhang Xuezhou let out a heavy breath.
"From now on, please let me use the equipment myself as much as possible. I will go out to find you once my health returns to normal!"
Considering the timing chosen by the Emperor and the battle with the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but wonder if the Emperor intended to relocate coordinates in the real world.
Zhang Xuezhou couldn't say that the consequences brought about by the Emperor were very bad, but he certainly didn't want anyone to repeat Ren Anran's experience.
There is only one Ren Anran in the world, and only one Ren Yisheng who is willing to go through fire and Ren Yisheng for Ren Anran. It is difficult for anyone to repeat such a clean getaway, and the consequences of failure would be severe.
He gave Zhang Manqian some instructions, and then nodded to Ren Anran.
"Your brainwave fluctuation level is 20% higher than last time!"
Ren Anran unfolded the handwritten draft paper, making Zhang Xuezhou inside the medical device look at it one by one. At the same time, she also looked at the body data examination on the X432 medical device, and then chose to give a reminder.
"It's still within normal limits. The higher the fluctuation value, the more it proves that my brain is constantly recovering and is on an upward trajectory!"
Zhang Xuezhou nodded, his gaze quickly sweeping over the scrap paper in Ren Anran's hand.
Mental Strengthening primarily involves visualization, meditation, repeated memorization, and imprinting. It involves figuring out what to visualize and meditate on, which parts need to be deeply memorized and enhanced, and then coordinating with the body's system to truly uncover the mysteries of this power. Each chapter may seem simple, but mastering it is extremely difficult.
Zhang Xuezhou could only take advantage of the effects of the medication on his body to push forward the project in depth.
To Zhang Xuezhou's surprise, he drank so much Nine Treasures Wine, and then wasted half an hour fighting between the Emperor and the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.
This made Zhang Xuezhou seize every moment, wary of the effects of his Nine Treasures Wine fading.
"Give me a dose of X864 gene therapy!"
After reviewing the draft paper in Ren Anran's hand, Zhang Xuezhou calmly provided further details.
For Zhang Xuezhou, this was all he had planned, and it was almost perfect.
He is currently inside the X432 high-end medical device, which combines the effects of Nine Treasures Wine with X864 gene therapy, making it Zhang Xuezhou's three-piece healing set.
The seventh chapter of the Mental Strengthening Chapter was only brought in to deal with the unexpected situation involving Zoro.
Whether you herd one sheep or two sheep, it's all the same to herd them, so Zhang Xuezhou didn't shy away from the complexity of the situation.
Of course, if there is any regret, it is that Zhang Xuezhou did not go to the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum to try his luck, nor did he obtain Zuo Quan's lucky charm.
He couldn't demand perfection; everything had been done to the best of everyone's ability.
Zhang Xuezhou had all the necessary conditions at the moment and was just waiting to resolve the double trouble brought by Pei Jing and Zuo Luo in one fell swoop.
