Chapter 959: Chapter 452: Harvesting the Taibai Divine Iron, The Surge of the Devouring Great Dao! Chapter 959: Chapter 452: Harvesting the Taibai Divine Iron, The Surge of the Devouring Great Dao! Looking at the chat records in the Holy Institute Token.

Jiang Yuan couldn’t help but smile, “So Senior Brother Qu Qing had been silent all this time because he was peeping!”

Qu Qing smiled wryly, “It’s too boring to stay in the Holy Institute alone, so naturally I like to check in now and then! Now that the junior brother is silent, I’ve lost a bit of fun.”

“It was especially interesting witnessing the junior brother constantly shock the fellow junior brothers and sisters!”

Jiang Yuan smiled, “It seems that Senior Brother Qu is a bit bored here. Have you considered going out for a walk?”

Qu Qing shook his head slightly, “Forget it! For now, I don’t want to go out. It’s also quite nice staying in the Holy Institute!”

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan didn’t say much more and simply raised his cup slightly.

“I toast to Senior Brother!”

After a round of hearty drinking, by the time Jiang Yuan stepped out of the courtyard, the sun had already set.

Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly to clear his mind of the effects of the alcohol.

Then, he walked towards the corner where Gongye Lie was.

A moment later.

Clang clang clang–
The familiar sound of blacksmithing once again reached Jiang Yuan’s ears.

Hearing this regular rhythm of hammering, a smile appeared on Jiang Yuan’s face.

Every time he came to this place, no matter day or night, he could always hear the monotonous sound of Senior Brother Gongye Lie forging.

It was apparent that Senior Brother Gongye Lie truly had a passion for blacksmithing.

Jiang Yuan walked directly towards where Gongye Lie was.

After a short while.

“Senior Brother Gongye!”

Jiang Yuan looked at the bronze-skinned, brawny figure in front of him and slowly spoke up.

“Wait a moment, junior brother!”

The deep voice of Gongye Lie instantly drowned out the sound of blacksmithing and clearly reached Jiang Yuan’s ears.

“Okay! I’m not in a hurry! Senior brother, go on with your work!”

Jiang Yuan spoke again, the corners of his mouth bearing a light smile.

At the same time, with a slight thought, the Golden Energy of Luck surrounding Gongye Lie was immediately harvested by him.

By now, the speed at which Gongye Lie swung his huge hammer was increasing.

With every strike, it was as if thunderclaps were exploding next to Jiang Yuan’s ears.

In an instant, the series of loud bangs turned into a continuous barrage of thunder.

After the time it takes to brew a half a pot of tea.

Gongye Lie stopped swinging his massive hammer.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned to look at Jiang Yuan, and then cracked a wide smile.

“Junior brother, what brings you to see me today?”

Jiang Yuan smiled, “I returned to the Holy Institute with the Dean during the day, so I came to see Senior Brother and also to invite you for a drink.”

As he spoke, a jug of liquor appeared in Jiang Yuan’s hand, which he tossed to Gongye Lie.

Gongye Lie opened the stopper of the jug and took a slight sniff at the tip.

Jiang Yuan said, “Senior brother, no need to smell it, this is genuine Northern Desert strong liquor!”

Gongye Lie took a deep breath at the mouth of the jug, his face immediately showing an intoxicated expression.

“It truly is strong liquor!”

“And it’s from the Northern Desert, too!”

He then looked at Jiang Yuan with a hearty smile, “Junior brother really knows me well!”

“Here’s to you, junior brother. I toast to you in hopes that you will ascend to the Great Dao soon!”

Jiang Yuan smiled slightly, “Thanks for the good wishes, Senior Brother!”

As he finished speaking, Jiang Yuan also raised his jug in an air cheers and then gulped it down.

“Junior brother is really forthright!”

Gongye Lie complimented.

He too poured the liquor down his throat in big gulps, some spilling on his chest, instantly filling the area with the aroma of alcohol.

“Good liquor!”

After the hearty drink, Gongye Lie immediately praised.

“Burp–”
Then, with a surge of alcohol fumes, he let out a long, satisfied belch.

“Junior brother, you’ve got quite the capacity for liquor!”

Seeing Jiang Yuan drink heartily without a change in expression, Gongye Lie immediately praised him.

Jiang Yuan simply smiled and said nothing.

With his current physical body, needless to say, his ability to handle liquor was not bad!

Moreover, as soon as the alcohol entered his stomach, it was instantly devoured and refined, leaving no effect on him.

…

A moment later.

The two sat under a tree, with the liquor nearly finished.

The sunset gradually sank behind the mountains.

“Junior brother, which realm have you reached now?”

Gongye Lie suddenly asked.

Jiang Yuan replied, “Why does Senior Brother suddenly ask this?”

Gongye Lie then said, “I’ve recently forged a few decent divine weapons. Let’s see what realm you’re in, and if it suits you, I’ll give them to you.”

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan said, “The Cave Realm.”

“The junior brother’s breakthrough came so quickly?” Gongye Lie was somewhat surprised, then slowly nodded his head, “That makes sense. At The Alliance War, the junior brother had already reached the limit of the Four Extremes Realm.”

“It’s been several months since The Alliance War, and with the junior brother’s rate of progress, it’s only fitting that you’ve pioneered your own Cave Heaven World and have broken through to the Cave Heaven Realm.”

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded slightly.

At that moment, Gongye Lie looked at Jiang Yuan curiously, “Can junior brother show me your aura? After you’ve broken through the Cave Realm, as your senior brother, I should give you some congratulatory gifts.”

Upon hearing this, a wry smile flashed across Jiang Yuan’s mouth, “Does Senior Brother really want me to show my aura?”

Gongye Lie nodded, “Of course! I’m quite curious about junior brother’s cultivation, so indulge my curiosity, will you?”

As he said this, Gongye Lie’s face showed a look of reminiscence.

“I still remember the first time I met junior brother, when you had just entered the Dharma Realm.”

“In such a short span of time, junior brother’s cultivation has far surpassed mine.”

“The Cave Realm! That’s a realm I can hardly step into in my lifetime.”

With these last words, his eyes showed endless emotion.

Jiang Yuan smiled, and in an instant, the aura of the Cave Heaven Realm Ninth Heaven revealed itself without a doubt.
