The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 70 They Still Have Not Paid …
“Master, this is Your Deep Sea Spring Dew.” Hestia handed Jiu Shen a bottle of wine with a smile on her face. He then stood behind Jiu Shen like an obedient servant waiting for his master's orders.
The alchemists looked envious after seeing how respectful the beautiful and kind Hestia was to Jiu Shen.
Jiu Shen took out his stopper with two fingers and inhaled the aroma of wine that exploded with his eyes closed.
Master Fengzi and the four other Alchemy Emperors could also smell the aromatic scent of wine. They swallowed their saliva and took their eyes off the bottle in Jiu Shen's hand.
“Ehem! Wine Master Jiu, after living here in the Silver Wing Empire for so long, this is the first time I have heard of an Alchemy Saint being here. If you don't mind me asking, you are not a native of this empire. , Fine?” Master Fengzi asked curiously. The alchemists beside him also glanced at Jiu Shen. They were clearly interested in the origin of this Alchemy Saint.
Jiu Shen remained silent and took a slight sip from the wine bottle in his hand. He then glanced at the alchemists who were now staring at him with probing eyes.
Jiu Shen's gaze was extremely calm as if no storm could move him.
“Is this your goal to come here?” Jiu Shen asked with a poker face.
Master Fengzi's eyes widened at his words and he couldn't help but stand up. He then bowed to Jiu Shen and spoke in an apologetic tone. “I'm sorry about that, Wine Master Jiu. Please pretend that I didn't ask that question.”
Jiu Shen nodded his head calmly and took another sip from his wine bottle.
“Master Wine Jiu, can you tell us about the Aurora Pill? Even our supreme elder knew nothing about it because we only saw it in ancient carvings left behind by ancient civilizations.” Master Fengzi sighed and shook his head.
‘I don't think that the alchemy standards here are too outdated so they don't even know what the Aurora Pill is...’ Jiu Shen thought to himself.
Jiu Shen was not a great alchemist in his previous life. In fact, his alchemy level was too low to be noticed. He only took it as a hobby when he was very bored and there was nothing else to do.
Jiu Shen placed a bottle of wine on the table and fell silent for a while before he spoke. “There are six pill states when successfully created: Low State, Medium State, High State, Peak State, Perfect State, and Profound State.”
“But ah- Wine Master Jiu, we think there are only five states.” Wang Wei, one of the Alchemy Emperors said with a puzzled look.
Jiu Shen glanced at him at a glance and replied in a distant tone. “That's because the Profound State exceeds this world standard.”
Master Fengzi and the others furrowed their brows in bewilderment, but in their hearts agreed with Jiu Shen's words.
If there really was someone capable of making pills in the Profound State then his name would definitely be written in the history books. But no one has been able to do that.
“If that's the case, then how do you do it?” Wang Wei asked, feeling increasingly confused.
Jiu Shen ignored him and added. “Once you can make a pill in the Profound State, you will then be able to summon the Aurora Pill. But for one to be able to produce pills at that level, they must have a thorough understanding of the components of the ingredients. . This includes age, environment, size, weight, smell, etc.”.
Hestia, Theia, and Lu Sulan who were standing behind Jiu Shen glanced at his back with shocked expressions. This was the first time they had heard him speak so much.
Normally, Jiu Shen would only say a few words when asked. But this time, he spoke non-stop for over an hour.
Even the three beautiful women who had no knowledge of alchemy were absorbed in his speech.
As for Master Fengzi and the four Alchemy Emperors, they recorded everything Jiu Shen said, afraid that they would forget all the important things he had stated.
“And that's how you improved the quality of the pills during the manufacturing process. Although this is the most basic enhancement technique, there should be no problem with it.” Jiu Shen glanced at the people around him.
It was only then that he realized that he had taken so much time to talk about something. He breathed deeply and thought to himself. ‘It looks like I would be fine as a sect master if I could talk that long ..’
Master Fengzi and the others were still digesting everything Jiu Shen said to them. He did not know how many times he had been enlightened that night. After listening to Jiu Shen's teachings for an hour, he felt like he had saved several decades of time to understand about alchemy.
Not only him, the four Alchemy Emperors felt the same way as well. In fact, they were now looking at Jiu Shen as if he was a god.
“It's late. You guys can go. And Hestia, do not forget to ask for payment of this wine to them.” Jiu Shen stood up from his seat and picked up the wine bottle before he climbed upstairs. Lu Sulan trailed behind his master with sparkling eyes.
“Ya sir.” Hestia bowed to the figure of Jiu Shen's back before she smiled at the alchemists who were still stunned.
“Young Hestia Mona, can we order some wine before we go?” Wang Wei asked as he rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment.
“Stores are now closed.. You can leave, but I can also make you stay here forever if you want…” A cold voice echoed behind them making the alchemists scared to death so they immediately stood up from their seats.
“Ahhh! Run!”
“Ahhhh!”
Theia sneered mockingly while looking at their running figures.
“Wait. They still haven't paid for the wine.” Hestia murmured to herself.
Theia's smile twitched and her eyes lit up like torches. His figure then disappeared from his place.
“Wow!”
Hestia chuckled and prayed that the alchemists could come back alive after this.
