Just as Yao Qianshu said, the more he meditated on the Five Elements Array, the more he could discover the endless mysteries within it. Just the three arrays were enough for Ji Dong to feel endless benefits. However, as he continued to meditate, he also found that it was extremely difficult to comprehend further. It was impossible without a lot of time and energy to guarantee it.
Yao Qianshu said, "Ji Dong, I think this is the most suitable place for us Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples to cultivate in the future. Everyone is here to learn about the Five Elements Formation, which will undoubtedly increase our strength greatly. When we come again, we'll make ample preparations. As time goes by, we'll definitely be able to comprehend more things."
Ji Dong smiled and said, "I don't have time to comprehend now. I'm starving, and my mouth is dry. Aren't you the same?"
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
Yao Qianshu walked to the pattern representing First Wood on the altar and sat down. Ji Dong walked to the Third Fire pattern and sat down. When the two looked at each other again, there seemed to be some provocation. It was time to show the results of their comprehension during this time. In order to leave this place, there was no doubt that the three arrays they had comprehended included the existence of this Teleportation Array.
The white sun corona appeared above their heads at the same time. The emerald color representing the ultimate First Wood and the golden-red color representing the ultimate Third Fire also rose in an instant.
The totem patterns at the places where they sat flashed at the same time, and the two also looked at each other.
The white sun corona above Yao Qianshu's head had impressively turned into two half-corona stars. His magic power had been promoted from level-42 to level-45. Such an improvement in less than two months was undoubtedly shocking.
However, when Yao Qianshu saw the sun corona above Ji Dong's head, he couldn't help but be a little sluggish. Four corona stars impressively appeared above the sun corona. Ji Dong's magic power had been promoted from level-32 to level-38, a whole six levels. That was a whole six levels of improvement. The magic power gap between the two had been greatly reduced.
At this moment, Yao Qianshu couldn't help but recall Tianji's words. Ji Dong was the Holy King of this generation's Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples.
Extreme demonic power rose at the same time, and a circular array appeared behind the two of them. Behind Yao Qianshu, an Azure Dragon coiled around him like a cloud spitting out mist, and rhombus-shaped demonic patterns surrounded the Azure Dragon. Behind Ji Dong, the golden-red Vermillion Bird spread its wings and stood calmly, and the cone-shaped demonic patterns formed a vortex around it.
These were the Yang Wood Teleportation Formation and Yang Fire Teleportation Formation that they had comprehended.
In the midst of the dense demonic power, above the altar, the First Wood and Third Fire totems lit up at the same time. A smoke-like demonic light rose up and turned into two light pillars that completely enveloped their bodies. The teleportation formation shone brightly and floated up on its own, fusing into their respective light pillars. The intense light bloomed in an instant and then converged. In the next moment, their bodies had already disappeared without a trace.
This wasn't the first time Ji Dong had teleported, but it was definitely the first time he had teleported under his own control. Although he still didn't know where the destination of the teleportation was, he controlled his own magic power to combine with the teleportation formation and felt the mysteries of the teleportation formation. This feeling of crossing through the void still gave him a new understanding.
With a flash of light, Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu appeared almost at the same time. The two of them closed their eyes at the same time. They hadn't seen the sun for at least a month. This sudden light made it difficult for them to adapt to it. It took a full quarter of an hour before they gradually regained their vision.
The sky was bright and the sun was shining brightly. Feeling the light shining through the uneven shadows of the trees, the two of them couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Their judgment was correct. If they wanted to leave the underground palace, they had to rely on the teleportation formation. At this moment, they were in a forest.
Under such a bright and generous situation, the two of them looked at each other again. Looking at each other's disheveled appearance, especially Yao Qianshu's appearance, it was even worse than a beggar's.
Yao Qianshu raised his hand and pressed on a big tree beside him. A green light flashed, and his eyes instantly lit up. He said, "We are in the Fog Forest. That teleportation formation sent us into the forest. If it's only the two of us coming next time, we only need to enter the Fog Forest and we should be able to use the teleportation formation to directly enter the underground palace."
Ji Dong nodded and said, "We still need to find something to eat first, clean up our bodies, and change into clean clothes."
Yao Qianshu laughed and said, "Of course. If only the Ninth or Tenth Water Saints were here. There wouldn't be any problem washing your body. Food is easy. With me, the First Wood Saint, around, do you think the forest can make you hungry? Where there is a forest, there must be a river flowing through. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many plants. Come with me. "
The forest was definitely the territory of the Wood Element Magician. Ji Dong also didn't know how Yao Qianshu did it. In less than an hour, the two of them had already washed their bodies. They sat beside a small but very clear river and ate a lot of fruits.
After eating dry rations for such a long time, having fruits to eat was undoubtedly the happiest thing for them.
There were many definitions of happiness. Most of the time, it didn't have to be something expensive. Happiness also didn't have any direct relationship with money. When someone had a stomachache, it was a kind of happiness to be able to find the toilet immediately. When someone finished detoxifying, it was also a kind of happiness to be able to have toilet paper. And at this moment, to Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu, eating these fresh fruits was the greatest happiness.
The sweet juice nourished his lungs. Yao Qianshu couldn't help but moan in comfort. He directly laid down on the grass and muttered to himself, "Ji Dong, I want to sleep like this under the sun. I didn't feel tired when I was in the underground palace. I only felt tired after coming out. Aren't you tired?"
Ji Dong smiled faintly and said, "I'm alright. Don't be in a hurry to sleep. I have a present for you."
"Present?" Yao Qianshu's money-tree personality didn't change even after learning about the Five Element Formation. When he heard the word "present", his eyes instantly lit up. He rolled over and sat up, looking at Hyōhime with longing.
Ji Dong looked at him and couldn't help but laugh. He said, "Can you not always see gold in your eyes? I don't have any money to give you."
"A crystal core is fine too. Or a crystal crown, I can make do with it. It doesn't have to be money, hehe," Yao Qianshu said with a fawning expression.
Ji Dong shook his head helplessly. With a shake of his right hand, a bottle of wine jumped into his grasp. He placed it on the ground at the side. Then, he took out two more bottles of fine wine and a cocktail shaker.
"This time, we ventured into the underground palace to search for the treasure. Although it was full of dangers, it was all thanks to your treasure map that I was able to learn the Five Element Formation. I'll mix a glass of wine for you. Consider it a present.
Yao Qianshu said, a little discouraged, "You know how to mix wine? I don't really care much for wine. It's been a while since I've had one."
A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Ji Dong's mouth. He said, "You're the first person to taste the cocktail I make so reluctantly. I hope you can do the same in the future. It'll serve as a spur for me."
As he spoke, he opened the cocktail shaker and poured the three types of fine wine into it according to a certain ratio. He closed the lid and with a flick of his wrist, the cocktail shaker flew into the air and began to spin rapidly.
Seeing Ji Dong's technique of mixing wine, Yao Qianshu's eyes lit up. He exclaimed in his heart, "So fast."
The cocktail shaker seemed to come alive in Ji Dong's single hand. The crystal shaker danced continuously with the gold and white wine, forming a special glow.
As his strength increased, Ji Dong became more skillful in the area of mixing wine. He had even gradually figured out some of the techniques he had imagined in his previous life. Just like the Nine Heavens Fairies Descending to the Mortal World that shocked Fury, even when he was at his peak, he might not have been able to make it every time. But now, with his superb physical fitness, he succeeded on the first try.
Three balls of light appeared like explosions. Ji Dong was still sitting on the lawn, still waving one hand. However, in an instant, Yao Qianshu felt his vision blur. It was as if three golden suns had risen from Ji Dong's head and sides. Only the word "shocked" could describe his current feelings. Even if he didn't know much about mixing wine, he could see that Ji Dong's skill in this area was profound.
The light disappeared at the same time. The three suns seemed to have fallen in an instant and landed in Ji Dong's palm. Ji Dong held the cocktail shaker firmly in his hand. Through the crystal walls, one could see that the wine was still spinning rapidly.
Yao Qianshu couldn't help but ask, "Ji Dong, are you really a bartender?"
Ji Dong smiled calmly and said, "I prefer it when you call me the God of Wine." His words sounded a little arrogant, but he did have the ability to do so. After coming to this world, even when facing the nine-star master bartender, Thunder Emperor, who had the highest title in the Bartenders Guild, he had never tasted defeat. Moreover, he had always used the purest bartending techniques without the assistance of any magic. Before anyone could defeat him, no one could shake his title as the God of Wine.
Yao Qianshu laughed and said, "Alright, then I'll have a taste of the cocktail made by the God of Wine."
Ji Dong opened the cocktail shaker and poured the wine that had already turned pale gold into a Martini glass. He passed it to Yao Qianshu and said, "This glass of wine is made with three-tenths Bols Almond Brandy, five-tenths Gin, and two-tenths Orange-Flavored Vodka. Its name is Heaven."
Yao Qianshu took the glass and carefully looked at the pale gold wine. He said, "The name sounds good. Let me try it." As he spoke, he took a big gulp.
Looking at the way Yao Qianshu drank, Ji Dong couldn't help but frown. He was already starting to regret mixing the wine for Yao Qianshu. It was originally a form of gratitude, but now it seemed like it was no different from a cow chewing on a peony. Could this guy taste the quality of the wine? He really doubted it.
Yao Qianshu drank the glass of Heaven in two or three gulps. He turned his head to look at Hyōhime, his eyes sparkling.
Ji Dong was about to imitate Yao Qianshu and lie down for a while, but Yao Qianshu grabbed him and said, "Ji Dong, one more, one more, can't you?"
Ji Dong said calmly, "Delicacies can't be overused, especially with wine. If your tongue becomes numb from drinking it, you can forget about tasting the deliciousness of wine in the future."
Yao Qianshu exclaimed, "It's so delicious. I've never tasted wine that tastes like this. The hot air mixed with the fragrance of the wine made my soul rise in an instant. Heaven, this name is really appropriate. Ji Dong, you must be a member of the Bartenders Guild, right?"
Ji Dong found it a little funny and said, "Wrong answer. I'm going to sleep for a while. Aren't you tired too? Let's rest for a while, then we can discuss where to go next. "
Yao Qianshu said helplessly, "I say, Ji Dong, can you not always act so mature? In terms of age, I'm older than you by five years."
Ji Dong lay down on the grass and said, "I mature early, can't I?"
Yao Qianshu chuckled and said, "Ji Dong, I think if we cooperate and open a bar, it would be a good choice. You'll mix the wine, and I'll be in charge of running the business. How about that? We'll split the money we earn, okay? "
Ji Dong glared at him in annoyance and said, "Not everyone is qualified to drink the wine I mix." With that, he closed his eyes and ignored Yao Qianshu.
Yao Qianshu had no choice but to lie down as well. The two of them were really exhausted during this period of time. Although it was not a good choice to sleep in the wild, they were too lazy to move, so they just fell asleep.
The sky was their blanket, and the earth was their bed. This feeling was very strange, but it was also the sleep that was closest to the Qi of Heaven and Earth. After an unknown amount of time, Ji Dong, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up. There seemed to be a sense of danger in the unseen world that scared him out of his deep sleep.
He did not rush to open his eyes. Instead, he focused on his hearing and listened to the movements around him. Vaguely, there was a whooshing sound coming from afar, and it was rapidly approaching them.
Turning over and sitting up, Ji Dong pulled Yao Qianshu up beside him and said, "Hurry and wake up. There might be a situation."
Yao Qianshu said in a daze, "What's the situation? I'm sleeping like a log. Don't disturb me. I'm exhausted these days. "
With the Bing Fire in his body, Ji Dong slapped Yao Qianshu's shoulder. The burning sensation was like a scorching fire, and Yao Qianshu cried out in pain. This time, he could not stay awake even if he wanted to.
Before he could reprimand Ji Dong, Ji Dong had already pulled him up. The whooshing sound became clearer and clearer, and it was coming in their direction in a straight line.
"Ji Dong, what's the matter?" Yao Qianshu asked as he rubbed his shoulder. His spirit had not fully recovered, and he was very dissatisfied.
Ji Dong said in a low voice, "Something is approaching us. Be careful."
Right at this moment, a voice that Ji Dong was very familiar with sounded, "Ji Dong, it's really not an easy thing to find you! I didn't expect that it would take a whole three months. Do you know that in these three months, Central Plains City will change drastically because of you? "
