The Immortal's Wine Store

Jiu Shen called his two personal disciples and also his two alchemy disciples. Since he was planning to leave the Profound Dragon Continent by tomorrow, Jiu Shen thought that he had to at least inform his students so that they would not be too shocked about his absence.

"Master, why did you suddenly call all of us here?" Can Ye asked Jiu Shen with a perplexed look. His master rarely convenes his disciples, so Can Ye was a bit surprised this time. He was wondering why Jiu Shen had suddenly called them.

Lu Sulan, Jiu Shen's eldest disciple, glanced calmly at her master. She believed that Jiu Shen had something important to tell them, so she waited for him to speak.

The two older men, Fengzi and Li Hongtian stared at Jiu Shen with reverence. They never regretted choosing to become his disciples. Although Jiu Shen rarely taught them Alchemy, every time he does, the both of them would gain great benefits. They had nothing but admiration for their master.

"I will be leaving tomorrow." Jiu Shen replied in a calm manner, but his words made his disciples feel surprised.

Their Heavenly Sword Tower had just gotten their first batch of disciples and their master was already leaving? Where was he planning to go?

"Master, what about the cultivation of the new disciples? Teaching them would be easier with you around." Can Ye said as he looked at his master.

"Master, Junior Brother Can Ye is right. It would not be good if you suddenly leave right after our sect accepted its first batch of disciples." Lu Sulan said with worry.

The two old men merely glanced at Jiu Shen. They weren't as shocked as Lu Sulan and Can Ye when they heard that Jiu Shen was planning to leave. Their master was a peerless cultivator and alchemist. Such an individual was bound to travel into different places to pursue the peak of cultivation. Even with his absence, they could still practice with the notes left behind by Jiu Shen. In fact, it might take them more than ten years to comprehend all the notes that he left to them.

"My absence will not bring a big impact to the growth of our Heavenly Sword Tower. Just take this as a test to see what you guys can do without me around. If you are worried about the safety of the sect, then you don't have to be. Ren Shuang will protect this place while I'm gone. And it's not just him. Long Meili will also be here to help you guys." Jiu Shen said expressionlessly. He did not want his people to grow dependent on him. Perhaps this was a good opportunity for them to learn how to become self-reliant.

"But..." Can Ye wanted to say a few more words, but he saw the calm eyes of Jiu Shen becoming colder, so he immediately shut his mouth.

"I'm not here to ask for your permission. I am here to inform you that I will leave. When I go back from that place, I will check the progress of each and every one of you, so make sure that no one will be lazy." Jiu Shen said as he gazed at his disciples.

Hearing this, they could only forcefully nod their heads. They also told themselves to never slack off during their master's absence. They were afraid that Jiu Shen might punish them if he sees no improvements in their cultivation.

"Master, I will be honest here. It might take me more than ten years before I manage to become a Nascent Alchemy God. With the help of your notes, I might be able to shorten it to three to five years, but I definitely can't do it in several months." Li Hongtian said with embarrassment. He was already an old man and with his potential being completely exhausted, it was even almost impossible for him to achieve a breakthrough.

Beside him was Fengzi, and this guy was still an Alchemy Sovereign. Although he was much younger than Li Hongtian, he was still an old man in the eyes of others. With his potential, he can become an Alchemy Saint and as for becoming a Nascent Alchemy God, he wasn't so certain.

Jiu Shen stared at the two old men and took out something from his space earring. It was a small book called 'Fundamentals of Alchemy'.

Seeing this book, the eyes of the two old men shone like stars.

"Written in this book is the very basic of alchemy. I personally wrote this to help you both in your path towards the peak of alchemy. I also added my personal experience inside to make it even simpler for you guys. If you still can't reach a breakthrough with this book in your possession, don't come back to me." Jiu Shen said as he tossed the book to the two old men.

The eyes of these two old fossils instantly went wide with worry when they saw the book falling straight on the ground. They hurriedly caught it with their shaking hands and they only sighed in relief when they saw that it was safe.

"Master, I promise that we can improve significantly with the help of this book." Li Hongtian said excitedly.

"Good. Don't forget to make pills for the disciples of our sect." Jiu Shen said.

"Yes, master." The two old men replied in unison.

"As for the both of you. You will be responsible for observing the growth of the disciples. You have to make sure that none of them will waste our resources." Jiu Shen said as he glanced towards Lu Sulan and Can Ye.

"Yes, master!" They both nodded their heads respectively.

"Leave." Jiu Shen said as he sat down in his seat.

His four disciples bowed their heads before they left the room.

"Ren Shuang."

Swoosh.

"Master." Ren Shuang emerged like a shadow in front of Jiu Shen.

"Bring Theia here." Jiu Shen ordered.

Ren Shuang nodded his head before he vanished like smoke.

"I should bring Theia with me to the Divine Beast Continent. I might not be able to babysit that little tiger alone..."
