There were seventeen icebergs in total, floating scattered on the surface of the sea.
The wine madman stood on top of one of the icebergs, and at her feet lay an extremely beautiful looking female corpse, wearing a purple shirt with a vertical eye on her brow.
Although, she had died in the Sea of Abandonment many years ago, the skin on her body was still as white as fat and had not decayed.
“It’s really beautiful, how could old me even get you, but since I met you, naturally, I can’t let go.”
The wine madman appeared to be quite excited, a pair of wrinkled old hands, trembling, reached out and unbuttoned the female corpse’s coat, revealing a large area of delicate skin, and then, grabbed the pendant hanging on the female corpse’s neck, and ripped it off.
The pendant, was a jade three-leafed small flower, emitting nine circles of green holy light, extremely beautiful, like a green lamp flickering in the darkness.
The wine madman’s two fingers pinched the three-leafed green flower, a look of excitement in his eyes as he said, ”Legend has it that the Three-Eyed Ancient Clan’s holy relic, the Three-Leafed Nine-Life Flower, can live forever as long as it is worn on one’s body. Such a treasure, actually really exists, it’s so beautiful, the flower pattern is exquisite, and the Qi of life is thick, how can I, Wine Crazy Man, how can I!”
“Rumble.”
A wave of water dozens of feet high lifted up and slapped against the body of the wine madman.
In the wine madman’s mouth, he spat out a mouthful of seawater, so frightened that he hurriedly put away the Three Leaves Nine Lifetimes Flower, clenched his hands into fists, made a defensive stance, and shouted, ”Who? Who dares to snatch the old man’s Three Leaf Nine Lifetime Flower? Hehe …… what is that thing?”
On the surface of the sea, a huge beast-shaped shadow moved over quickly, enveloping the wine madman.
“Ow.”
The huge body of the Dragon Dawn Sacred Beast King appeared above the head of the Wine Crazy Man, roared harshly, stretched out a sharp giant claw, and slapped downwards.
The powerful sound wave shook the surface of the sea and sunk rapidly, forming a huge basin, while the currents in all directions rose rapidly, almost as if a giant mouth had grown out of the sea to devour the wine madman.
“What a powerful corpse qi.”
The wine madman’s face stared and became incomparably serious, then, inside the pale body, an intimidating might surged out, his body was cast like iron, his hair was like a steel needle, and his entire aura became stern.
“Snap!”
The palm of his foot stomped on the water surface, and immediately, a black demonic fury Qi surged out, transforming into a demonic cloud that covered the sea surface.
Wine Crazy Man’s hands clasped together, and with that, the demonic Qi in the heavens and earth rushed into the sky as if it were a pillar, condensing into a Black Demon Grinding Wheel with a diameter of tens of miles.
The Black Demon Grinding Disc rotated rapidly, and the demonic Qi was monstrous, causing the entire heaven and earth to turn into a whirlpool.
“Rumble.”
The Dragon Dawn Sacred Beast King suffered a blow from the Black Demon Grinding Disc, thousands of scales fell off his body, and his huge body was sent flying out, crashing into the sea.
“Ow……”
The Dragon Dawn Sacred Beast King disappeared from the bottom of the sea, hissing and roaring as it gradually faded away and finally disappeared completely.
This area of the sea, was calm again.
“A mere dead creature, long gone from its former majesty, it even dares to snatch the old man’s Three Leaf Nine Lifetime Flower, it is also out of its depth.”
The Wine Crazy Man put away his demonic aura, took out a wine pot, and poured a mouthful of strong wine into his mouth.
A voice, sounded behind him, “The Black Demon Grinder is the supreme sacred art of the Moon Worshipping Demon Cult, are you a member of the Demon Cult?”
Not surprised at all, the wine madman turned around and stared at the young man sitting on top of the iceberg, his voice as hoarse as a male duck’s as he said, “Being proficient in the Black Demon Grinding Disc is being a member of the Demon Sect? You are also proficient in the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm, are you a disciple of the Buddha’s Way?”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t bother to argue with Wine Crazy and put away the Ten Sacred Blood Armour, his body was covered in blood red cracks, his entire body looked like it was going to be torn apart, and it hurt so much that his nerves had gone numb.
The wine madman snorted coldly: “With your kid’s cultivation, you dare to mess with a ferocious creature like that, fortunately, you have already cultivated to the point where your flesh has become a saint, otherwise, your flesh would have already been blown up.”
“Do you think I want to mess with it, but it’s not for the sake of searching for the Six Saints ……cough ……”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t continue and coughed twice, coughing up holy blood from his mouth, then, taking out a Fung Chun Dan, he swallowed it into his mouth and began to heal his injuries.
The Wine Crazy Man, however, stared at him with wide eyes, rushing over and asking eagerly, “Six Saints what? What exactly are you looking for, don’t heal your injuries first, finish before you heal your injuries.”
The Wine Crazy Man was jumping up and down like a monkey in a hurry because, he suspected that the thing Zhang Ruochen was talking about was most likely the item he was looking for…?The formula for the Six Saints Ascending Heavenly Wine.
The Wine Crazy Man had spent a lot of time and energy, consulting countless canonical books and also travelling to the Barbarian Secret Realm, all the time wanting to re-research the Six Saints Ascending to Heaven Wine so as to make a name for himself in the annals of mankind.
Of course, it would naturally be even better if he could find the Six Saints Ascending Heavenly Wine formula from the past.
Recently, the Wine Crazy Man had finally found some clues about the Six Saintly Ascending Heavenly Wine formula, and the clues pointed to the Yin Yang Sea. That was why he had taken a huge risk and came to the Yin Yang Sea to try his luck.
Zhang Ruochen’s words were stopped halfway through, what was he if not rushing him?
Half an hour later, Zhang Ruochen recovered 90% of his injuries, all the wounds on his body healed, and his spiritual Qi became very full.
Just as he opened his eyes, he saw the wrinkled old face of the Wine Crazy Man and a pair of smiling eyes.
“Zhang Ruochen, you just said that you were looking for the Six Saints what exactly?”The Wine Crazy Man asked curtly.
“Nothing.”Zhang Ruochen laughed.
“How could it be nothing?”
“It was supposed to be a casual remark.”
Zhang Ruochen appeared bashful as he stood up and looked out over the vast and boundless Forsaken Deep Sea, saying, “Earlier, I seemed to have heard you talk about the Three-Leafed Nine-Life Flower, could it be the legendary Three-Eyed Ancient Clan’s piece of holy artefact?”
“No, you heard wrong!”
The wine madman hastily shook his head, not admitting it at all.
The Three-Eyed Ancient Race was an ancient race that had disappeared in the river of history, the inheritance was broken in the Middle Ages, and the entire ancient race had become extinct.
Being the Three Eyes Ancient Clan’s holy relic, the Three Leaves Nine Lives Flower, had many magical legends.
It was said that wearing the Three Leaves Nine Lives Flower on one’s body could make the cultivator youthful and prolong his life.
Legend had it that there was a Saint of the Three Leaves Ancient Race who lived for more than 10,000 years before dying because he wore the Three Leaves Nine Lives Flower on his body.
It should be known that, generally speaking, the lifespan of a human Saint was 360 years, and for every realm that was raised, the lifespan would increase a little bit accordingly.
However, even with any increase, it would be difficult for a Saint’s lifespan to exceed eight hundred years, and even if it did, it would be after taking a large amount of life-renewing Saint Pills.
Only Saint King level figures would have a lifespan of over a thousand years.
The lifespan of a Great Saint was at least three thousand years.
A human that was able to live for more than ten thousand years had a lifespan that was simply more frightening than that of a great saint.
It was such legends that gave the Three Leaf Nine Lifetime Flower a veil of mystery, and any cultivator who got such a treasure would surely be ecstatic as well.
Of course, those were just legends, and after research and calculations, later generations of cultivators felt that the legends were not true, and that there was an element of exaggeration in them.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t get serious with the wine madman and didn’t continue to pursue the matter.
He released his spiritual power and returned along the original path, looking for Huang Yichen and Ao Xinyan and the others.
The eyes of the Wine Crazy Man turned for a moment, then, flying up, he landed on top of the ice mountain where Zhang Ruochen was, and smiled heatedly, “If you and I entered the Sea of Yin and Yang together, naturally, we have to go back together, and I’ll go with you to look for someone.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t move, but he was secretly laughing in his heart.
Just now, Zhang Ruochen intentionally said the words “Six Saints” in order to attract Crazy Wine, so that Crazy Wine would take the initiative to follow him to look for someone.
The strength of Crazy Wine Maniac was quite strong, and with him by his side, in case he encountered the Dragon Dawn Sacred Beast King again, Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t have to flee in such a mess as he did earlier.
The Heaven and Earth rules of the Forsaken Deep Sea were a bit odd, Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual power could only extend to a hundred miles, and if he continued to extend outwards, what he saw would become more and more blurred, and finally turn into nothingness.
Not only that, Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yichen and Xiao Hei originally had a subtle induction, and could find each other’s location. At this moment, this induction, too, disappeared!
Returning to the sea where the Dragon Lich Sacred Beast King was first discovered, Zhang Ruochen did not find Huang Yichen and Ao Xinyan and the others, they should have already left.
“This is bad, the Abandoned Deep Sea is so vast, trying to find them again is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack.”Zhang Ruochen was a little worried about their safety.
The Wine Crazy Man handed a wine pot to Zhang Ruochen and laughed, “What’s the point of worrying so much, there’s wine to be drunk today, have a sip first.”
“Don’t drink.”Zhang Ruochen said.
The Wine Crazy Man shook his head, lifted the wine pot, and drank by himself.
“With Qing Mo’s strength, even if they encountered the powerhouses of the imperial court, the Immortal Blood Clan, the Nine Dawn Palace, and the Ancestral Dragon Mountain, they should be able to retreat in one piece. Although Little Black is greedy for treasures, he is very shrewd and rarely suffers losses.”
The worry in Zhang Ruochen’s heart gradually dissipated.
There was no use even worrying, so it was better to choose to believe in their strength.
With that, Zhang Ruochen took out the dozens of artefacts he found from the Dragon Lich Sacred Beast King’s body from inside his spatial ring, placed them on top of the iceberg, and began to study them.
Wine Crazy, while lying comfortably in a low concave position on the iceberg, glanced towards the pile of artefacts and laughed, “Where did you find such a huge pile of broken copper and iron?”
“It’s possible to find unimaginable treasures inside broken copper and iron.”
Zhang Ruochen squatted down and picked up one artefact, carefully identifying the words on it.
The Wine Crazy Man snorted as he drank, saying, “There are so many treasures in the Abandoned Deep Sea, and every single one of them could shake the cultivation world when brought out. Yet you just found a huge pile of scraps, after all, you are still too young and have limited eyesight. Do you want me to take a treasure out and let you gain some insight?”
The Wine Crazy Man could not help himself somewhat, his fingers kept rubbing the Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower, wanting to take it out and show it off in front of Zhang Ruochen, his heart was very much looking forward to it, feeling that Zhang Ruochen would definitely be quite envious and jealous.
That image, it must be quite wonderful.
Right at this moment, Zhang Ruochen’s mouth let out a soft eek as he picked up a yellowish-brown gourd from amongst the pile of artefacts.
A wooden gourd that could have been preserved from hundreds of thousands of years ago without a trace of decay was truly a bit bizarre.
“That gourd …… could it be ……”
When the wine madman saw the gourd in Zhang Ruochen’s hands, his eyes lit up and he somersaulted and jumped up, stretching out his hands and about to pounce over to snatch it.
