Chapter 281: Drinking The Divine Wine

The Wine God Centipede Dragon's bony and sharp wings flapped as it charged towards Zhong Yue and the others. Its wings were so sharp that they cut the humongous trees in the Divine Jungle as they touched the trees, creating loud noises as the trees fell onto the ground.

As the Wine God Centipede Dragon chased after Zhong Yue and the others, the lanterns followed behind them happily, guiding the Wing God centipede dragon by shouting, "Here, the wine thieves are here!"

Years after its death, the Wine God Centipede Dragon's flesh had utterly decayed, leaving only its bones intact. Thus, its eyes had already decomposed to reveal two spine-tingling hollowed sockets. To compensate, it had these lanterns take the role of his eyes to guide it.

Zhu Jushan's temper was on the verge of exploding, and he growled in anger, "These lanterns are just way too annoying!"

To add salt to the wound, the lantern dangling in front of Zhong Yue's chest said, "I am not annoying...."

With the centipede dragon flying in the air, they did not dare to fly into the air, and they continued running on the ground for their lives. They always switched their position to evade the attacks of the centipede dragon, and each time they managed to pull away from the centipede dragon, it would quickly catch up with them again. The Wine God Centipede Dragon kept dropping wine barrels that kept trying to prey on Zhong Yue and the others while at the same time firing its deadly rays that were capable of evaporation everything it touched. In an instant, everything turned sour as soon as the Wine God Centipede Dragon made its appearance.

"[Obstinate Mountain]!"

Zhu Jushan stomped on the ground, and after a series ground trembling movements, a huge mountain emerged out of the ground in between themselves and the centipede dragon that blocked the centipede dragon's path. However, the ground in the Divine Jungle was way too hard, and even after trying the best he could, the mountain he created grew to twenty feet tall before its growth came to a complete halt.

Ho long——-

The wine barrels on their tail slammed onto the mountain, wearing out the durability of the mountain before it was quickly crushed into pieces by the centipede dragon that came charging in high speed! With the time bought by Zhu Jushan, the four of them managed to pull some distance away from the centipede dragon, but it was only a matter of time before the centipede dragon caught up with them!

"Brainless scums! You will not escape!" insulted other lanterns that appeared from nowhere while they guided the centipede dragon towards Zhong Yue and the others.

"[Deluge Liquid Water]!"

Ao Shanshan shouted, casting a skill which caused dark clouds forming around the area on top of them and in an instant, drop after drop of water began to spontaneously form in the sky.

Hua la——-

Water rained down from the sky, flooding the Divine Jungle, creating huge waves that washed everything like a tsunami. It knocked the balance of these lanterns, and the water hindered their visions. With their sights blocked, these lanterns flew around like headless flies, ramming into trees or even flying into the water, preventing them from guiding the Wine God Centipede Dragon.

Upon seeing this, Ao Shanshan shouted, "The Water Style Skills are efficient against them! With their visions hindered, they would not be able to see us!"

"Let me help you!"

Zhong Yue reached out his hands and shouted, " [Unlimited Great Sun]!"

In the air, a vast burning sun appeared and evaporated the rain and the water in the Divine Jungle, and in almost an instant, water mist emerged, and it became thicker and thicker that one could even see his own hands anymore. The mist then started spreading all over the Divine Jungle, obstructing the lanterns' visions even further.

Zhu Jushan then breathed in a long breath and blew it out, creating strong wind currents that pushed the mist even further away, shrouding more and more parts of the Divine Jungle gradually.

Finally, without the propitious lanterns making noises anymore, the surrounding turned calm again and the only noises could be heard was noise made when the water drops fall onto the ground.

"Thank god we survived that terrifying Wine God."

The four of them felt relieved, and Zhong Yue identified the direction to the outside by using his divine third eye while everyone followed behind Zhong Yue out of the jungle.

"Next time, I will definitely spit on the face of whoever tells me that the Divine Jungle is not dangerous!" said Ao Shanshan in frustration as she plumped down on a rock beside the lakes that she quickly created with a skill she cast.

Zhong Yue too, sat down on the other side while he slowly calmed himself down and thought, What a dangerous jungle! Whether it be the head-eating lanterns or the leg-eating wine barrels, they all possess strength stronger than the Atman Body level Qi Practitioners, and the lanterns even know how to pray to the Wine God, allowing it to be revived temporary to fend off the intruders. All of this is just so strange!

"Fortunately, we managed to catch quite a few wine bugs and get our hands on a considerable amount of divine wine!" said Zhu Jushan as he triumphantly took out a wine bug before smiling and saying, "Who would have thought that I could drink the wines made only for the gods as well! Everyone, let us have a taste of the divine wine and see what's so special about it!"

Zhu Jushan then took out four jade cups and four wine bugs before he pressed on the stomachs of the bugs, squeezing out the divine wine from their stomachs and pouring them into the cups.

The wine was so good that as soon as they were poured into the cups, the wonderful aroma of the wine could be smelt in the air. They were on the verge of falling into inebriation just from its divine fragrance!

Then, forming on top of each jade cup were clouds that turned into phoenixes that split into two phoenixes that circled around the cup.

"So nice!" praised even Zhong Yue as just from its fragrance that greatly calmed the soul and body, he knew that the divine wines did indeed live up to their names.

Ao Shanshan took up a jade cup and said, "Our Ao Clan also have our own divine wine that was supplied only to our Clan Lord but he had little of them only. The only time he would drink the divine wine would be during each major dragon festival. Each time he drinks his divine wine, he would make us suffer by asking us to smell the aroma of the divine wine. I never thought that I would be able to drink one here...."

Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin'er also took up their jade cups before Qiu Jin'er said, "Will we get drunk?"

"We shall see."

The four of them cheered and laughed after they looked at each other before downing all of the divine wine in their cups.

As soon as the wine entered their throat, Zhu Jushan's face changed, and he quickly shouted, "Not good!"

His body quickly enlarged as he entered the Atman Body As One state, turning into a huge giant while a horrifying spirit power surged out from the divine wine he drank into his body.

"There's poison in the divine wine!"

Zhu Jushan rolled all over on the ground in pain, and he suddenly leaped into the sky before slamming his fist onto the ground, "Not poison, the power in the divine wine is too strong for our body right now!"

Zhong Yue, who drank the divine wine as well, also felt the divine fire burning in his stomach as the divine wine's toxin surged all over his body, pushing his body to the edge of bursting! Without any hesitation, he quickly visualized the[Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art]in an attempt to turn this unbridled power into his own.

At his back, the Great Sun Golden Crow appeared in the shroud of sunfire. As soon as the golden crow appeared, the sunfire got purified and refined into the true sunfire that shone even brighter after absorbing the power in the divine wine.

The same happened to Ao Shanshan and Qiu Jin'er. As soon as Ao Shanshan drank the divine wine, she let out a dragon roar, and she turned into an azure dragon that flew up into the air and dived into the lake she created.

Qiu Jin'er's Ju Mang Yuan Shen also appeared behind her, and after it started absorbing the power in the wine, it became larger, clearer, and purer as if it were going to materialize.

"Ao ao ao——-!"

Zhu Jushan let out a loud roar as he was completely drunk and he charged back into the Divine Jungle. Instead of walking or running, he jumped around like a gorilla and in an instant, he disappeared from Zhong Yue's vision.

"Brother Zhu!"

Zhong Yue tried to stop him by grabbing him but to no avail. Not long after he ran away, Zhong Yue heard a loud cry in the jungle while somewhere Zhong Yue was unable to see, a propitious lantern grew larger than the other lanterns. And Zhu Jushan's face soon appeared on it. The lantern with Zhu Jushan's face flew around, and it said in satisfaction, "I finally have my own head...."

Outside of the dimension, Zhu Jushan sat on the ground with an empty mind right after he was revived by the Lang Ya Board while he cried, "MY DIVINE WINE...."

And in the lake was a drunk Ao Shanshan. She swam wildly in the lake, stirring chaos on the water as her power lost control, creating thunder in the lake and dark clouds on top of the lake.

Zhong Yue wanted to stop this dragon lady from her rampage so that she would not run away like Zhu Jushan but he couldn't because he too, was busy resolving the wild power of the divine wine running wildly inside himself. With that, as soon as he stopped visualizing the[Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art], the power of the wine would take over, and his fate would be the same as Zhu Jushan's.

Thus, all he could do was watch the dragon lady swim further and further away before he lost sight of her altogether.

Women are crazy when they are drunk, this is the place where the Heaven Monarch lives, who knows what kind of danger lurks within this place. Is she planning to throw her life away just like that? Thank god junior martial sister Qiu managed to contain the power of the divine wine....

Zhong Yue tried his best to suppress the power of the divine wine, did all he could to turn them into his own power. The power of the divine wine was incredibly powerful and unique; it managed to enhance his body, Yuan Shen, psyche and even his soul.

Other than that, Zhong Yue also felt that his Yuan Shen, body physique and the totem carvings in his body were getting stronger and stronger while the energy pool in him expanded wildly, not to mention that the sunfire of his evolved into true sunfire!

All of his Yuan Shens also started growing inch by inch and very quickly, they all soon reached a size beyond 20 feet, and their growth didn't merely stop there!

Upon feeling all of these, Zhong Yue felt greatly shocked, and he quickly checked on his Yuan Shen Secret Realms only to find that his Yuan Shen Secret Realms shook and rumbled vigorously as they kept on expanding. The power of the five great secret realms was also increasing rapidly!

As his strength gradually increased, bit by bit he managed to suppress the power of the divine wine and that's when he finally felt relieved. However, he did not realize that the face of the pretty girl turned even redder beside him and suddenly, she stood up and left her chair behind before she jumped into the huge lake.

"Senior martial brother, come and catch me!" said a drunk Qiu Jin'er with a laugh.

Zhong Yue rushed towards her in shock while dragging the wheelchair with his psyche before diving into the lake. And it was at this time a golden ship sailed towards them from afar.

"That's the Divine Queen's ship!"

The propitious lantern at the side of Zhong Yue shouted in fear, "Come back! Don't go there! We will be beheaded if we offend her even by the slightest bit!"
