Nine Star Hegemon Body Art

Chapter 1525 Time Sensitive Mission

"Oh? What about it is good?" asked the High Priest with a smile.

"It's good in that... it's free." Long Chen also smiled.

"Hahaha," laughed the High Priest.

"Hehe, it was just a joke. If I were to compare your fine to a painting, then last time, the wine you gave me was a vast masterpiece containing every aspect of the world and endless profundities. However, my cultivation base was too low to comprehend those profundities. But this time, you didn't give me a painting, but a white piece of paper. You also provided every possible color of paint. The first one was too profound for me to understand, and even if I did, I would only be able to copy it. But now you've given me my own canvas and paint, along with the hunder flavors of life. I can plot and extrapolate my own Dao onto it. I can clearly sense the difference between the two realms contained within your first and second wine. The former was a shaped demonstration, while the latter is a shapeless teaching."

Last time, because the High Priest's wine contained a realm that was far too distant to his level, Long Chen could only feel that he was extremely minute, and he didn't gain anything.

This time, the High Priest's realm had clearly increased to a whole new level. Before, his wine was vast like a sea, surging with such power that only peerless experts could control it. Now, his wine was a clear spring. The water could be drawn up at will. Although the opening to the spring looked small, who knew how vast the source of its water was? Who would dare to say for sure that the source of the spring was not just as vast as a sea?

One looked vast, but while it looked big, it had to have an end.

The other looked smaller and more reserved, but had a limitless foundation. The possibility existed for it to be limitless.

"Hahaha, no wonder you were capable of shaking the entire Eastern Xuan Region. This perception is quite terrifying. I gave all my Wine God Palace's disciples a chance to taste this new wine, but none of them were capable of putting it like this," praised the High Priest.

"Hehe, that's because I'm examining it from the viewpoint of someone outside the Wine Dao. When I drink this wine, I am a blank piece of paper. But their papers already have their colors on them, which have restricted their cultivation paths. That's why they can only see things related to their own paths. High Priest, this wine is a priceless treasure to me. This state of clear-mindedness can allow me to extrapolate many things. So about that..." Long Chen laughed mischievously, his meaning obvious.

The High Priest laughed, "Even if we had no relationship, I would have to give you a reward for evaluating the essence of my own. Tell me, how much do you want?"

"Hehe, you know me. I'm not greedy. However much you want to give, I'll take." Long Chen's skin was definitely as thick as a city wall.

In one way, it sounded like he wouldn't mind no matter how much he gave, but the real meaning was that he wanted as much as he had.

The High Priest didn't mind. He took out two foot-tall jugs. "This wine is extremely difficult to make. Of nine jugs, six failed and are essentially poison wine. Only three succeeded. If you like it, you can take it all."

This wine was so difficult to make that even the High Priest wasn't able to have a high success rate with creating it. The poison wine's realm had become muddled, and a person who drank might become insane.

"Many thanks, High Priest." Long CHen was delighted. He naturally wanted it. This was practically divine wine to him.

He could use this wine's special ability to create his own magical arts. The most marvelous aspect of this wine was that clear-minded state it allowed someone to enter. It gave them a blank piece of paper.
