"Sure, we've got plenty left. Let's enjoy ourselves to the fullest tonight!"
Wei Ming brought out his symbolic half-grin as he took out another ten jars of Jade-top Elysian from his Sumeru Ring.
"Elder Wei Ming is a great person indeed. Here, this is to your health!"
Qin Nan's eyes glistened as he picked up a jar and emptied it.
"Elder Qin Nan..."
Cen Wu, Liu Xue, and Lu Feihan took turns to drink with Qin Nan.
It felt like the entire sequence had repeated itself again.
However, unlike the previous two times, even with their outstanding cultivations, the four elders were forced to use their powerful Monarch Arts to suppress the intoxication.
On the other hand, not only did Qin Nan not use his Monarch Arts, the aura emitting from his body seemed to be growing stronger as well.
It turned out that his cultivation had just improved.
Not long after, the ten jars of Jade-top Elysian were emptied again.
"He carries his liquor like a man."
"As expected of Elder Qin Nan."
The elders and deacons were astounded. Qin Nan had drunk thirty jars of Jade-top Elysian on his own.
If they were in his position, it would be impressive enough if they managed to down fifteen jars.
The faces of the Illusionist Martial Monarch and the four elders began to turn dark.
What the hell was going on here?
Could it be that the Heart-Weakening Liquid was completely useless against Qin Nan?
"Master, what shall we do?"
The four disciples began to feel a bitter taste in their mouths. Even though they had only drunk ten jars each, they would most likely need a great effort just to withhold the energy from the wine if they continued drinking.
"HAHAHA, this is awesome. Four elders, is there any left?"
Qin Nan glimpsed at the four elders and burst into a huge laughter. However, the joy on his face turned into a frown as he finished the sentence.
"Drink, keep going. He won't be able to survive another ten jars."
The Illusionist Martial Monarch who began to hesitate immediately detected Qin Nan's expression and transmitted his voice to the four elders.
We've already invested thirty jars of Jade-top Elysian into it. How could we give up that easily?
"Acknowledged!"
Wei Ming and his crew glanced at Qin Nan with a hint of determination while clenching their teeth.
They were four of the Five Great Elders, disciples of a Martial Monarch and geniuses of the God Ranking. There was no way they would believe they could not outdrink a mere Qin Nan.
"Elder Qin Nan, since you're so in the mood, these are on me!"
The Illusionist Martial Monarch said. With a flick of his finger, ten jars of Jade-top Elysian landed right before Qin Nan. The rest of them landed before the four elders.
"Thanks, Hall Leader. Elder Wei Ming, this one is for you!"
Qin Nan brought his fists together with a smile as he grabbed a jar and emptied it as usual.
"Elder Cen Wu..."
After finishing a jar, Qin Nan picked up the second jar without hesitation.
Unlike the previous three rounds in which the elders were the ones making the move, Qin Nan was the one initiating the toasts this time.
Time gradually passed. The jars of Jade-top Elysian were completely emptied.
The four elders could feel explosions in their bodies when they drank two jars in a row. The energy from the wine began to spread rapidly in their body, causing their faces to turn pale. They immediately performed hand seals to execute the Monarch Arts in order to suppress the energy.
As for Qin Nan, he seemed perfectly fine, as usual.
A moment later, Qin Nan had finished the ten jars of Jade-top Elysian once again.
"F**k me!"
"That's forty jars of the Jade-top Elysian!"
"Isn't Elder Qin Nan's drinking capacity a little bit too terrifying?"
The elders and deacons in the hall exclaimed after seeing this.
The Illusionist Martial Monarch and the four elders wore unpleasant expressions.
How was this possible?
Even a Martial Monarch would not be able to hold his ground after taking in that much Heart-Weakening Liquid!
"Elder Qin Nan, you've drunk forty jars of the Jade-top Elysian. Are you sure you're alright?"
The Illusionist Martial Monarch took a deep breath, trying his best to calm his tone when he asked the question.
Wei Ming, Cen Wu, and the others stared at Qin Nan.
"Hall Leader Illusionist, four elders, you might not know this, but I've practiced a strange Martial Art which makes my Divine Sense as strong as iron. It's pretty much as impregnable as a mountain, which is the main reason why I'm perfectly fine after drinking the forty jars of Jade-top Elysian."
Qin Nan grinned.
"A stronger Divine Sense will allow us to drink more?"
"I didn't know that!"
"Looks like I'll have to prepare myself beforehand if I were to have a drinking bet with someone!"
The elders and deacons were astounded upon hearing this!
They initially thought that Qin Nan was able to drink this much because of the seven Martial Trees!
The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch was aware of something when he heard the explanation. He looked at the Illusionist Martial Monarch and his disciples with a mocking grin.
Meanwhile, the Illusionist Martial Monarch and the four elders were startled, whose expressions turned incredibly unpleasant as they collected their thoughts. They even felt like vomiting blood!
Strengthening the Divine Sense would increase one's drinking capacity?
Strengthen my ass!
Qin Nan was saying that to tell them that he knew everything about their plan. Besides, since his Divine Sense was incredibly strong, their Heart-Weakening Liquid was no use on him!
The Illusionist Martial Monarch then recalled Qin Nan's frown from before. He thought he was finally feeling the effect of the Heart-Weakening Liquid, but it seemed like Qin Nan was purposely doing it to trick him!
"Hall Leader Illusionist, four elders, I've only started feeling something now. Do you still have Jade-top Elysian?"
Qin Nan said intentionally!
The expressions of the Illusionist Martial Monarch and the four elders froze instantly!
More drinks?
Only idiots would continue drinking with him!
They had already wasted forty jars of Jade-top Elysian, which was equivalent to over two hundred thousand contribution points. There was no way they would want to waste more!
"Hehe, Elder Qin Nan is indeed impressive at drinking, I believe we should call it a night here. I'll have to excuse myself since I've got some matters to attend to!"
The Illusionist Martial Monarch rose from his seat and forced a smile before leaving the venue.
"Elder Qin Nan, we will be excusing ourselves too!"
The four elders stood up and forced smiles before following behind the Illusionist Martial Monarch!
If they were to stay any further, they were afraid that they would vomit blood straight away from feeling so oppressed!
The elders and deacons looked at one another. They were aware of the strange atmosphere lingering in the air.
"HAHAHA, Elder Qin Nan, that was brilliant!"
The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch burst out laughing!
Although he was clueless about what had actually happened, he could guess that the Illusionist Martial Monarch and his disciples had been trying to do something to Qin Nan, but had they failed miserably in the end, losing the bait along with the fish!
The feast continued to take place. The crowd finally started leaving three hours later.
The interesting thing was that those who were quite into drinking immediately put effort into strengthening their Divine Senses. When they had drinking bets with others, they shockingly discovered that their drinking capacity significantly improved after their Divine Sense grew stronger. As a result, they were even more impressed by Qin Nan.
"Now that my status is firmly laid, I should pay a visit to the Dark Shadow Palace."
Qin Nan returned to his palace. He made his decision after a slight ponder. As he stood up, a strange occurrence took place all of a sudden.
An ancient red glow exploded from his chest, which swiftly clustered together.
