Chapter 94 Long Ming’s Decision
Chapter 94 Long Ming's Decision
Long Ming's eyelid shrunk when he saw that young man. Although his clothes were shabby, the aura didn't hide from Long Ming's Heavenly Revelation Eyes.
A powerful aura was hidden in that young man's body as it resonated with the surrounding true qi. With the Heavenly Revelation Eyes, he could see a powerful aura of bloodline turning into a phantom of a gigantic ape.
The black colored demonic ape got a tremendous physique as it could shake mountains and turn the rivers.
" Wh-Who is that person?"
" Such audacity! Who does he think he is?"
" But that wine… That's an Immortal Wine. The fragrance along is so rejuvenating. What if we take a sip from that gourd?"
Ren Qian stood up when he saw that young man. " Are you the disciple of Old Leaf?"
The young man looked at Ren Qian and bowed. " Indeed, I am Han Cheng, the disciple of Daoist Fallen Leaf. My Master said that the Purple Light Pavilion will be a good experience for me. Therefore, he sent his wine, Essence of Ancient Forest."
Ren Qiang laughed out loud when he heard that. " I see, I guess that bastard is still alive and kicking, huh? He even gave his Essence of Ancient Forest to you?"
Rubbing his chin, he nodded. " En, You're a brat with good potential. The Purple Light Pavilion will definitely help you."
The gourd floated and landed on Ren Qian's hand. Ren Qian didn't drink it immediately but stored that wine in his storage.
" Old Ren! That's not fair! I also want to have some of that!"
" Just a small sip will be enough!"
" Old bastard, don't hog everything to yourself!"
Ren Qian snorted. " You old geezers, you already drunk more than enough. Too much wine isn't good for health, you know?"
"Besides, since we already tasted so many wines, shouldn't we discuss the ranking?"
" En, Now you said that…"
" The first place naturally belongs to Han Cheng. The Essence of Ancient Forest is naturally one of the best wines I tasted in my life. Not to mention, its potency is enough to make a Harmonization realm cultivator drunk."
" But you didn't let us drink that though…"
Long Ming clicked his tongue when he heard that. He thought after spending all that time and spirit stones, his Four Seasons True Wine will get first place. But just by smelling the fragrance of the Essence of Ancient Forest, Long Ming realized that Han Cheng's wine is worthy of first place.
" Daoist Fallen Leaf? Is he someone famous?"
" Yeah, What about him? Isn't this against the rules?"
" Daoist Fallen Leaf… Wait, Could it be…" An old cultivator was shocked when he remembered. " He is the Grand Elder of Heavenly Cloud Garden, one of the grand sects in the Central Province."
" What? Heavenly Cloud Garden?"
The name resounded like thunder when the old cultivator said that. Everyone looked at Han Cheng in a new light.
" Hey, What's this Heavenly Cloud Garden?" Long Ming whispered in Luo Yingying's ears.
" Senior Brother doesn't know?" Luo Yingying was stunned. " The Heavenly Cloud Garden is one of the ancient sects across the entire Rain Dragon Continent, they were even older than our Four Seasons Valley." Luo Yingying spoke.
" Producing Seven Heavenly Emperors, their history stretches two eras back. Even when our Four Seasons Valley was a prominent power in Eastern Province, we had to give face to Heavenly Cloud Garden."
" Damn, They do feel powerful." Long Ming chuckled when he heard that.
' Fuck, Shouldn't I have reincarnated as the wasted young master of Heavenly Cloud Garden who is actually a super genius?' Long Ming became amused.
' But well, At least I landed into a sect filled with flowers and beauties…'
" But then, What is he doing here? Shouldn't he stay in the Heavenly Cloud Garden and cultivate?"
" Well, It's not unnatural." Luo Yingying replied. " Weak or strong, disciples of all sect and clans ventures out to seek fortuitous encounters by themselves. After all, walking a thousand miles is better than reading ten thousand books."
" Hmm, You're right. In the end, experience matters along with theoretical knowledge." Long Ming nodded.
" Also, there are countless lands and forbidden zones filled with infinite treasures. The treasure troves of ancient eras, legacies of Heavenly Emperors, natural treasures of heaven and earth, no matter how big a sect is, they couldn't possess all of them."
" Alright, The second place goes to the, The Four Seasons True Wine of the Four Seasons Valley!"
" Senior Brother! We did it!"
Lin Xie and Chen Yin grabbed Long Ming's arm as they danced with joy. Even Luo Yingying couldn't help but grin like a fool.
Long Ming let out a laugh as he nodded. " Alright, We can celebrate later. Now, just calm down and enjoy the show."
" The third place goes to the Gentle Violet Breeze of Violet Cloud Sect."
" Fourth place goes to the Blossoming Emotions of Blissful Heaven Temple."
" The Fifth place goes to the Sacred Sword Wine of Six Sword Pavilion."
The top five places were declared. The Four Seasons Valley and Blissful Heaven Temple disciples glared at each other.
Liu An walked on the stage and gave a hearty laugh. " Haha, This year's Wine Gathering is perhaps one of the best ones. To think we will manage to get so many types of wine."
" However, since the ranking has been declared, we will proceed to the next stage right away. All the cultivators, Please follow me."
Long Ming looked at his surroundings and saw everyone's expressions brighten up, as if they are going to receive their biggest reward.
Liu Jiang stood among them with a light smile. " Please, stand inside the formation."
Long Ming and others followed him and reached a circular terrace. Suddenly, the surrounding pillars shone with a blinding light as their surroundings changed.
They appeared right before a majestic place, with a gigantic stone slab with purple veins in front of them, The stone slab looked more like a gigantic stone wall, with heights over hundreds of meters.
Everyone stood more than a hundred meters from that stone slab, but they could feel the tremendous aura emitted from the stone slab. The purple veins looked like meridians as they pulsed with a strange rhythm.
" This is the Purple Crystal Pavilion, a legacy left behind by our progenitor." Liu An spoke with pride. " When he ascended to the Grand Heaven Ascension Realm, he used his will to cleave this mountain. Imbued with the blessing of the grand dao of heaven and earth, he made this Purple Crystal Pavilion."
" This stone pillar is imbued with the dao of heaven and earth. If you sit near its vicinity and comprehend it, you will be surrounded by a purple halo. The brighter the halo, the greater blessing you will receive."
" With a brighter halo, you will be able to gain insight into various daoist intents and achieve a breakthrough. You might even get some mystical techniques, who knows?"
Liu Jie looked at his father and nodded. " Everyone, from the top five rankings, each sect will send three disciples to the Core Zone of Purple Crystal Pavilion. Everyone will stay there for three days."
Long Ming looked at Liu Jie as he asked, " Brother Liu, What is the difference between the zones?"
" Well, How should I explain?" Liu Jie scratched his forehead. " Originally, the entire place was a single zone. But then, one of our ancestors decided to create a formation to differentiate the power of the stone slab."
" The Core Zone is filled with the pure aura of the stone slab while the Outer Zone is with less aura. So basically, gaining insight into intent is much easier than the Outer and Inner Zone."
" So, It's like… With enough comprehension, one can get the same effect as the Core Zone in Outer Zone?"
" Well, You can put it that way."
All the sects decided their candidates. Han Cheng was alone as he carried a saber on his waist. Without wasting any time, he walked to the Core Zone.
" Senior Brother, You and Sister Yingying should go too."
Long Ming looked at Shui Huan as he laughed. " Well, I have a better plan."
" WHAT! TH-THAT'S ABSURD!"
All the disciples of Four Seasons Valley looked at Long Ming with surprised expressions. Luo Yingying shook her head furiously."
" You are simply throwing away a god sent opportunity. This time, you are the one who deserves the reward, Senior Brother."
Long Ming grinned. " Well, Don't worry about me. With this plan, our sect will be benefited much more."
" But what about you?!"
Long Ming laughed. " I will be fine."
Ren Qian opened his eyes and looked at Long Ming. " Hehe, What do you want this time, brat?"
" Another favor?" Long Ming grinned as he handed the wooden vase to Ren Qian. " Although this is nothing in front of the Essence of Ancient Forest, I will do my best to gift you a better wine in the future."
Ren Qian laughed out loud as he grabbed the vase,
" I am listening."

" Hmm? Wait!"
" Look at that!"
While disciples of all sects converged in the Core Zone of Purple Crystal Pavilion, everyone became shocked when they looked at the line up of Four Seasons Valley.
The three chosen disciples were: Lin Xie, Shui Huan, and Chen Yin.
