Chapter 1159: Duel and Cultivation

grown several times larger than it was hundreds of years ago. 。has become one of the most bustling areas under the control of Baiyuantang. 。The reason, of course, is that Lu Xiaoteng stayed in Liefen...Over these past few days, the 6th Heavenly Layer has gathered quite a lot of things. His cultivation recently broke through and needs to consolidate his foundation once again. Not to mention having someone like Xiang Kuang, a top-tier powerhouse, as his sparring partner. It's something that many people would beg for but couldn't get. Of course, it is not necessary to risk venturing into the Lingxu Secret Realm for now. However, when his strength is sufficient, there will be no other opportunities like this, and he will naturally leave this place. It's just that the time isn't right yet."Haha, good, then let's make a deal!" Xiang Kuang exclaimed with delight. "Come, little brother, we hit it off instantly. Have this pot of Cold Yang Wine on me."

Xiang Kuang took out another jar of Han Yang Drunk, over a hundred years old, and handed it to the six little heaven. “It's rude not to reciprocate a gift. Since Brother Kuang is a connoisseur of fine wine, I also have two jars of spiritual wine here. Brothers Kuang and Mang Xiao, please try some.”

After 6 Xiao Tian had finished his thanks, he also took out two jars of Zui Xian wine. "The fragrance of this wine is truly intoxicating!" 6 Xiao Tian said. Item Kuang, a lover of fine wine, immediately inhaled deeply with his nose. His eyes gleamed, and with a grab, he captured a jar of Zui Xian wine in his hand, taking several large gulps.

"Good wine, eh Wait, no, your wine seems to have some effect on magic power too. Little brother, what kind of wine is this"

"Does it have some effect on magical power" The head of the Mangxiao family took another wine gourd, drank a few gulps, and a look of enjoyment appeared on his face. "It does have some effect, but it's almost so weak that it can be ignored. I'm afraid it's something used by Jindan cultivators."

"Well, it was brewed years ago, prepared for use during the Golden Core stage. I never expected that before I could use it, I would have already reached the Nascent Soul stage." Xiao Tian laughed, "But although it's no longer needed, this Drunken Immortal Wine is made with the finest ingredients. Satisfying one's cravings won't be a big problem."

"Though useless to us, it can allow a Jindan cultivator to fully recover their mana in an extremely short time, which is quite rare. It's a pity, it's a pity." The head of the Mangxiao Sect lamented repeatedly. If this spirit wine could also achieve the effect of restoring mana for Yuanying cultivators, its value would be immeasurable.

"It's a pity about what In this world, everything has its destined fate. When life is good, enjoy it to the fullest and don't let golden cups stand empty facing the moon. Use your talents when needed, and don't force them when they are not. Why worry so much Over the years, your cultivation has barely increased, and all your thoughts have been focused on the family. If you don't rein yourself in, this is as far as your life will go." Xiang Kuang took a big gulp of spiritual wine and said.

Little Tian listened thoughtfully. Though this bold statement was simple, it also contained his attitude towards life, dealing with people, and even cultivation. There were things to learn from it.

“Mr. Dongfang, if you need me to refine medicine in the future, I hope you can be accommodating.” After a hearty drink together, Master Mangxiao privately told Xiao 6 in a voice transmission before leaving. After all, Xiao 6 would have to spend a considerable amount of time in the Black Prison and would need to spar with Xiang Kuang from time to time. He was well aware of Xiang Kuang’s abilities; Xiao 6’s involvement in mundane affairs would undoubtedly affect his alchemy.

“Even idle pills, the Head of the Mangxiao Clan should not bring them here. If there are pills worthy of my attention, just send them over. Besides, I still need the Head of the Mangxiao Clan to help me gather a few things.”

Six nodded silently, agreeing that the more information about the elixir for peaches of immortality, the essence of demonic beasts from the twelve levels, and other necessary things, the better.

The head of the Máng Xiāo household heard 6 Xiaotiān's agreement and was greatly relieved. He bowed and left.

6 Xiaotian didn't plan on leaving Heiyu Prison anytime soon. Besides good wine and a thirst for battle, Xiang Kuang didn't care much for material possessions. The cave dwelling in Heiyu Prison had actually become 6 Xiaotian's cheap find.

After settling into the cave, Little Six Heaven stayed in Heijue for a while. Xiang Kuang truly lived up to his reputation as a fierce fighter. The next day, he came to challenge Little Six Heaven. Little Six Heaven fought him, and despite only using the strength of an early Nascent Soul stage, Xiang Kuang still managed to draw a tie, unable to overcome Little Six Heaven's elusive sword array.

And even the Six Little Heaven's Five-Colored Jiao Head Stick posed a considerable challenge to Xiang Kuang. However, Xiang Kuang was after all a Grand Cultivator, and his mastery of mana far surpassed that of Six Little Heaven. Moreover, the time spent nurturing the Five-Colored Jiao Head Stick was incomparable. In this aspect, Six Little Heaven was indeed at a disadvantage.

As time passed, Xiang Kuang's battle with the Six Little Heavenly Fighters grew more and more intense. The Misty Sword Formation, though named as such, bore traces of an array formation, but its core was that ethereal and transcendent state of mind. While it had hints of an array, its combination with the realm of intention made it ever-changing and unpredictable, with no fixed patterns to be found.

Sometimes, Xiang Kuang would get into the mood to fight and, in order to test Liutiantian's limits, he couldn't help but use more of his magical power. However, as Liutiantian's understanding of sword formations deepened day by day, he was able to barely hold on.

Xiang Kuang was truly interested in the myriad changes of this ever-shifting sword formation. However, as the number of fights increased, 6 Xia Tian's mana recovery was far inferior to Xiang Kuang, a powerful cultivator. When his strength waned, his control over the Blood Gang force became more refined under this immense pressure. After all, the realm of mana cultivation had a solid foundation and couldn't be achieved overnight. However, his physical cultivation had only recently broken through to the tenth level, with an unstable foundation. In battles against powerful cultivators like Xiang Kuang, he had to employ both mana and physical techniques simultaneously. This forced 6 Xia Tian to make rapid progress in his physical cultivation, rapidly consolidating his foundation.

At first, Xiang Kuang thought that 6 Xia Tian was still a master alchemist after all. He would definitely prioritize alchemy in his cultivation, but the reality surprised him. 6 Xia Tian's cultivation seemed to be not much worse than his.

In the Black Prison, Xiang Kuang only had three things to do: cultivate, spar with the Six Little Heavens, or drink alcohol during his leisure time. Ever since he drank the Immortal Drunkenness Wine, Xiang Kuang's taste became more refined. He would ask the Six Little Heavens for some every now and then. Fortunately, the Six Little Heavens had prepared a large amount of Immortal Drunkenness Wine while in the barrier, so there was enough supply for a while. Besides cultivating, the Six Little Heavens also liked to drink with Xiang Kuang. From time to time, they would chat about cultivation matters. Xiang Kuang never held back, and every time the Six Little Heavens raised a question, Xiang Kuang, as a great cultivator, could provide some unique insights, benefiting the Six Little Heavens greatly.

In the Black Prison controlled by Xiang Kuang, there was a seriously injured cultivator who was hardly a match for 6 Xiaotian. The other eleven-tiered demon cultivators or Yuan Ying mid-stage cultivators also had strength that was rarely comparable to 6 Xiaotian. Within this Black Prison, Xiang Kuang couldn't find a better opponent on the one hand, and on the other hand, he also admired 6 Xiaotian's single-minded pursuit of the Dao. As a result of coming and going frequently, the two developed a deep friendship over time.

As for this black prison, Xiang Kuang is just a figurehead. Besides his own cultivation, he ignores everything else and doesn't care about the lives of those imprisoned. On the other hand, Liu Xiaotiān occasionally walks around. When it comes to understanding this black prison, Xiang Kuang, the master, is far less knowledgeable than Liu Xiaotiān.
