At this moment, the two middle aged men didn’t dare hesitate to hurriedly align the wine jugs in their hands to their mouths.
Subsequently, both of them raised their heads in unison and poured the wine within the jug into their mouths before drinking mouthful after mouthful in a fierce manner.
Instantly, the face of the azure clothed middle aged man flushed red, whereas, the blue clothed middle aged man’s face seemed to be covered in a layer of ice, and their pupils couldn’t help but constrict, yet they still fiercely swallowed the wine within the wine jug and didn’t dare hesitate in the slightest.
"Ah!!" Finally, the azure clothed middle aged man was the first to completely swallow the jug of Blazer Wine, and he emitted a shrill cry before hurriedly throwing away the empty wine jug in his hand. He held on tightly to his throat with both hands and felt as if a ball of flames was blazing within.
It wasn’t just that, the scorching feeling that he felt from the meridians and internal organs within his body even caused his body to be unable to refrain from trembling intensely.
At the same time, he roared with a low voice before spitting out a mouthful of the blood, and the blood even contained a scorching aura that caused one to feel fearful from the sight of it.
"Pu!" The other blue clothed middle aged man’s body shivered as if he’d fallen into a pit of ice, and when the wine jug in his hand was just moved away from his mouth, he instinctively spat out of mouthful of blood before directly falling unconscious.
Even if it was an ordinary Void Interpretation Stage expert, the expert wouldn’t dare drink a jug of Blazer Wine and a jug of Glaze Wine like this.
They were mere seventh level Void Initiation Stage martial artists, so they were naturally unable to endure it.
"Scram!" Duan Ling Tian glanced coldly and indifferently at the azure clothed middle aged man, and then he returned to his own seat.
The azure clothed middle aged man didn’t dare hesitate and disregarded his injuries as he hurriedly carried up his companion and fled from the seventh floor of the Iceflame Pavilion.
Meanwhile, the seventh floor of the Iceflame Pavilion was deathly silent.
The gazes of most people carried traces of terror as they looked at Duan Ling Tian.
"Tian Wu, if I’m not wrong… The wine on the ninth floor ought to be the best in the entire Iceflame Pavilion, right?" Duan Ling Tian looked at Feng Tian Wu who hadn’t returned to her senses, and he asked with a smile.
Feng Tian Wu returned to her senses when she heard Duan Ling Tian, and she replied. "Yes."
"I want to go try it." Duan Ling Tian smiled lightly.
Feng Tian Wu was first stunned, and then she smiled. "Then we’ll go up and take a look."
Subsequently, both of them left their seats and ascended the stairway that led to the eighth and ninth floor.
Presently, none of the customers of the seventh floor were shocked by this.
Since that violet clothed young man was capable of drinking a jug full of Blazer Wine and Glaze Wine that were mixed together without suffering the slightest injury, his cultivation was obviously profound.
It was extremely likely that the violet clothed young man was a Void Interpretation Stage expert!
As far as they were concerned, it was impossible for even a ninth level Void Initiation Stage martial artist to drink Blazer Wine and Glaze Wine like that without being injured in the slightest.
Yet they didn’t know that the reason Duan Ling Tian dared drink like that was entirely because of the special method in the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor.
That method seemed to be simple, yet it was extremely difficult to achieve.
"Tian Wu, have you been to the ninth floor?" Duan Ling Tian asked.
"Yes." Feng Tian Wu nodded. "My Father brought me there during the first time I came to the Darming Dynasty… But, my cultivation was low at that time, and I only watched his drink wine there."
Duan Ling Tian nodded.
As a person that had fused with the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor, he naturally knew that some special wines couldn’t be drunk by just anyone.
Not to mention anything else, but just the earlier Blazer Wine and Glaze Wine in the seventh floor was something that would absolutely cause the death of a martial artist below the Void Prying Stage.
After Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu ascended the eighth floor and caused the Inscription Formation at the entrance to the stairway to emit two clear sounds, the two old men that stood on guard there were instantly petrified.
"They…are both eighth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists?" The two old men couldn’t help but gasp.
Obviously, Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu had shocked them.
They instead weren’t aware that after Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu ascended to the eighth floor, they didn’t stop before directly heading towards the ninth floor.
Only an old man stood before the entrance to the ninth floor’s stairway, and his calm expression was slightly moved when he saw Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu.
"Little kids, go get your seniors if you want to ascend the ninth floor." The old man spoke slowly.
Obviously, he didn’t think that either Duan Ling Tian or Feng Tian Wu was a ninth level Void Initiation Stage martial artist as the two of them were truly too young, whereas, the ninth level of the Void Initiation Stage was a threshold in order to enter the ninth floor.
"Thank you for your warning, senior… But there’s utterly no need." Duan Ling Tian took the lead and passed through the stairway, and a clear sound resounded out.
The old man’s expression instantly froze.
"Tian Wu." After he passed through the Inscription Formation, Duan Ling Tian smiled as he gestured to Feng Tian Wu.
As far as he was concerned, he’d already possessed the qualifications to ascend the ninth floor, so it was fine even if Feng Tian Wu was unable to pass through the Inscription Formation as he could bring her in.
But Duan Ling Tian’s smile froze in next to no time.
A clear sound entered into Duan Ling Tian’s ears, causing him to be unable to refrain from revealing a shocked expression. "Tian Wu… You’ve broken through?"
Never had Duan Ling Tian imagined that Feng Tian Wu had actually broken through to the ninth level of the Void Initiation Stage.
"I broke through a while ago." Feng Tian Wu smiled lightly. "Big Brother Duan, let’s go in."
"Where… Where did these two little freaks come from?" The old man looked behind him with a slightly dumbstruck gaze, and he stared blankly at the figures of Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu that disappeared into the distance as he muttered.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu entered the ninth floor’s hall.
The ninth floor was also the highest floor in the Iceflame Pavilion, and there were extremely few people drinking wine here, a total of less than 20 people.
Most of these people were actually young men and young women.
Of course, these young geniuses had gathered at three tables. Obviously, most of them were brought up by other ninth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists.
At the beginning, there weren’t many people that noticed the appearance of Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu, and they only noticed them after a young man in embroidered clothes unintentionally laid eyes on Feng Tian Wu and cried out in shock. "What a beautiful woman."
"How did they come up?" For a time, many people couldn’t help but be slightly astonished.
It was practically impossible to make them believe that this pair of young man and young woman possessed the strength to ascend the ninth floor of the Iceflame Pavilion, because the two of them were truly too young.
"It ought to be their seniors that sent them up before leaving." Someone couldn’t help but guess, whereas, this guess obtained the recognition of most people.
Duan Ling Tian naturally heard these words, yet he disregarded it.
As far as he was concerned, no matter if he relied on his own strength to ascend the ninth floor or not, it was utterly unrelated to anyone else.
"The tables on this ninth floor are slightly larger…" Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu walked towards a table, and they hadn’t sat down when Duan Ling Tian’s pupils had already constricted.
Heaven!
What have I seen?
At the center of the tablet was actually a large number of round indents, and the center of these indents were empty. "These wouldn’t be all for placing Origin Stones, right?" The corners of Duan Ling Tian’s mouth twitched.
It would at least require around 100 mid grade Origin Stones to fill all the indents on this table.
When Duan Ling Tian sat down and saw Feng Tian Wu withdraw a pile of Origin Stones to place into those indents, he couldn’t help but reveal a bitter smile. "I truly never imagined that the wine in this ninth floor is so expensive… Tian Wu, at least 100 mid grade Origin Stones are required to be placed here, right?"
"It’s exactly 99," said Feng Tian Wu.
99?
Duan Ling Tian’s heart trembled slightly. 99 mid grade Origin Stones was equivalent to almost 10,000 low grade Origin Stones. "This Iceflame Pavilion’s wine is simply seizing away one’s money… No, it’s seizing Origin Stones!"
Whoosh!
Along with Feng Tian Wu placing 99 mid grade Origin Stones, the Inscription Formation on the table was activated, and a light barrier slowly appeared in next to no time.
It was still half red and half blue.
Feng Tian Wu’s hand pressed down onto the red colored half of the light barrier.
Instantly, a tray that held a wine jug and three wine cups appeared before Duan Ling Tian’s eyes.
"There’re actually three wine cups given here?" Duan Ling Tian’s brows raised as he still remembered that the wine jugs in the seventh floor only came with a single wine cup.
In other words, if a few people drank together, they had to buy a few wine jugs.
Duan Ling Tian picked up two wine cups and placed them before himself and Feng Tian Wu respectively.
Subsequently, he started pouring the wine.
When he saw the wine that was red like blood that poured into the cup, his gaze couldn’t help but light up. "Red Charm?"
At the same time, a strand of fragrance entered into Duan Ling Tian’s nose, causing the Origin Energy in Duan Ling Tian’s body to surge to the point it seemed almost ready to come out.
Red Charm! It truly deserves its reputation!
"Big Brother Duan, you… You recognize this type of wine?" Feng Tian Wu who was about to brief Duan Ling Tian about the wine couldn’t help but be stunned and asked curiously.
"Yes." Duan Ling Tian nodded.
Feng Tian Wu’s beautiful eyes flashed as she suddenly felt that this Big Brother Duan of hers was more and more unfamiliar. "Exactly how many secrets does Big Brother Duan have?"
Her heart was filled with curiosity towards this.
Some people say that when a woman become curious towards a man, it was usually the beginning of being halfway into a chasm.
"If I’m not wrong, the other type of wine is probably Blue Longing?" Duan Ling Tian smiled as he spoke.
When she heard Duan Ling Tian was even capable of naming the other wine in the ninth floor, Feng Tian Wu was first stunned before being unable to restrain the curiosity in her heart, and the she asked. "Big Brother Duan, where exactly did you hear of these two wines? Could it be that you’ve drank it in the past?"
According to her knowledge, even if it was the entire Darkhan Dynasty, there was no wine like the Blazer Wine of Glaze Wine being sold, let along the Red Charm and Blue Longing.
"I unintentionally saw it in an ancient book." Duan Ling Tian casually found an excuse.
He couldn’t tell Feng Tian Wu that it was because he possessed the memories of a formidable Martial Emperor that he knew of these two types of wine, right?
