Peerless Battle Spirit Chapter 1205 - Jade-top Elysian

"Elder Qin Nan, since you've just arrived, I guess we can consider ourselves your seniors. It doesn't make sense if we don't make you feel welcomed by having a great drink together. This is the Jade-top Elysian from the four of us as a gift. We hope you'll accept it, and enjoy yourself while drinking with us."
From among the four elders, Wei Ming who was wearing a red robe and seemed quite dignified rose from his seat and said in a loud voice.
He flicked his finger, placing ten jade jars in front of Qin Nan, each emanating a pleasant wine scent.
"The Jade-top Elysian?"
"That's a good wine. A jar alone costs eight thousand contribution points!"
The elders and deacons cast a side glance at Qin Nan.
They were well aware of the situation. Qin Nan was on the Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch's side, while the four elders were the Illusionist Martial Monarch's disciples. Therefore, it was highly possible that they were up to something by inviting Qin Nan for a drink.
The Illusionist Martial Monarch wore a smile without revealing much of his intention, while the eyes of the Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch flickered as he stayed silent.
Qin Nan slightly raised his eyebrows. He sneered in his heart after inspecting the jade jars with his left eyes of the Divine God of Battle.
The four elders indeed had ulterior motives. They had done something to the wine.
Besides, they clearly knew that Qin Nan had an outstanding eye-technique, thus they had used something incredible to prevent him from noticing. Even the left eye of the Divine God of Battle could only detect a slight energy being out-of-place from the wine.
"Hehe, could it be that Elder Qin Nan is looking down on us or the wine?"
Wei Ming said with a smirk.
"How kind of the four elders, as a junior, why wouldn’t accept it? Thank you, elders."
Qin Nan said in a calm tone.
The four elders were well prepared for this, thus they clearly knew about his seven Martial Trees and the fact that something normal would not be able to harm him.
However, what the four elders did not know was that he had nine Martial Trees inside his body instead of seven.
As such, he could easily handle both the poison and the power of the wine.
Besides that, the Illusionist Martial Monarch would not dare to use something too poisonous.
The eyes of Wei Ming and his crew flickered with joy.
The Illusionist Martial Monarch sneered in his heart.
As Qin Nan thought, they knew it was impossible to intoxicate Qin Nan, thus they had decided to use some ancient poison called the Heart-Weakening Liquid. Even Martial Monarchs with outstanding eye-techniques would not be able to identify it.
The Heart-Weakening Liquid would not bring any harm to Qin Nan's body or cultivation, but it would penetrate Qin Nan's consciousness and affect his mind.
If Qin Nan were to drink all the ten jars of the Jade-top Elysian, he would go crazy for at least five days, thus losing his face in the Anti-Heaven Alliance.
"Elder Qin Nan is open indeed. I'll drink first to pay my respects." Wei Ming grabbed a jar of wine and emptied it. A soft thud could be heard as the power of the wine was unleashed in his body.
"Thanks, Elder Wei Ming."
Qin Nan emptied a jar in one go too. The power of the wine was instantly absorbed by the nine Martial Trees.
"Mm?"
The copper mirror in Qin Nan's Divine Sense suddenly emitted a faint glow, lighting up his Divine Sense.
"Are they targeting my Divine Sense?"
Qin Nan was stunned for a moment before a strange look appeared on his face.
These guys planned to target his Divine Sense out of every other possible option?
"Elder Qin Nan is young and talented. To your wellbeing!" Cen Wu rose from his seat and raised his cup.
"Elder Cen Wu is being too courteous." Qin Nan accepted as he drank another jar of wine.
"Elder Qin Nan..."
It was Lu Feihan's turn.
The elders and deacons were exchanging glances with one another. Were the four great elders trying to intoxicate Qin Nan using the wine to teach him a lesson?
"Four elders, what do you mean by this?" The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch said with an expressionless face.
"Hehe, Hall Leader Ancient Lightning, everyone knows that Elder Qin Nan has seven Martial Trees. Do you think this amount of wine is enough to make him drunk? You are over thinking it." Hall Leader Illusionist immediately said.
He had asked his disciples to take turns exchanging toasts with Qin Nan to trick the crowd into thinking that they were trying to intoxicate him.
The elders and deacons agreed upon hearing this.
The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch laughed grimly in his heart. There was no way he would believe his explanation.
However, before the Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch could speak, Qin Nan said smilingly, "Hall Leader Ancient Lightning, Hall Leader Illusionist is right, don't worry. I won't have trouble handling the wine."
The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch frowned. He had been planning to say something, but end up letting out a sigh.
The Illusionist Martial Monarch sneered even more. It appeared that this Qin Nan had fallen into their trap.
Following this, under the crowd's gaze, Qin Nan continued to empty the jars of wine with the four elders.
A while later, Qin Nan had already drunk ten jars, while each of the four elders had only drunk five jars.
Currently, Qin Nan was slightly mellow, while the four elders looked tipsier than him.
After all, the Jade-top Elysian was no ordinary wine.
"Still not working? Is it because of the Martial Trees?"
The Illusionist Martial Monarch and the four elders exchanged glances.
Even a powerful genius would have trouble resisting the Heart-Weakening Liquid after drinking ten jars of wine.
However, they had long predicted this, thus they had made preparations for it.
"Elder Qin Nan, since we're here, we might as well enjoy the fullest. Here are another ten jars of Jade-top Elysian. Come, let's drink together." The only female among the four elders, Liu Xue winked at Qin Nan as she handed him another ten jars.
"Another ten?"
The elders and deacons inhaled deeply.
The twenty jars of wine were equivalent to one hundred and sixty thousand contribution points.
"Thanks, Elder Liu Xue."
Qin Nan seemed to be completely unaware, as he emptied another jar.
"Elder Qin Nan..."
Wei Ming soon rose from his seat.
It felt like the whole sequence was repeating. The four elders took turns to drink with Qin Nan, who accepted all the toasts.
As time gradually passed, Qin Nan seemed even tipsier than before. As for the four elders, they were already using their Monarch Arts to resist the intoxication.
However, when Qin Nan finished the wine in the jars, the elders and deacons looked utterly astounded.
Having seven Martial Trees was indeed incredible, still having control of himself after drinking twenty jars of Jade-top Elysian.
The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch let out a relieved sigh too.
As for the Illusionist Martial Monarch and the four elders, they began to pull long faces.
What was going on?
Why wasn't the Heart-Weakening Liquid working?
Even with the seven Martial Trees, he should at least show some reaction after drinking twenty jars?
"Four elders, thanks for the treat today. I really like the Jade-top Elysian. Sorry for asking, but is there any chance I could get more jars of them?" Qin Nan brought his fists together with a smile."
"Keep going."
The Illusionist Martial Monarch transmitted his voice with a cold gaze.
There was no way that he could believe that he was invincible with his seven Martial Trees.
