Chapter 881: Chapter 11 Surprise_4 Chapter 881: Chapter 11 Surprise_4 Song Dongyang hurriedly gave a respectful bow, âHall Master, that is simply part of my duties.â
His voice faded away.
Yet there was no echo in the air.
After carefully sensing for a moment and confirming that the other party had left, Song Dongyangâs expression relaxed slightly.
However, there was a tinge of doubt in his heart.
âPrepared for so many years?
But the Sect Master had mentioned not long ago that he wanted to construct the Tribulation Crossing Raft because of that Truth Membrane Eye from West Sea CountryâŚâ
After pondering for a moment, he shook his head and returned to his desk, resuming his review of the documents in front of him.
âŚ
...
Spirit Food Department.
Second floor.
âYou lad, holding three positions at once, your merits have even surpassed mine.â
Cui Daqi looked at Wang Ba in front of him and couldnât help but show a hint of emotion.
âI owe it to Martial Uncle Cui.â

Wang Ba smiled and gave a bow to Cui Daqi.
The two had known each other for a long time and dispensed with many formalities.
Seeing that Wang Ba had suddenly assumed three positions and yet didnât exhibit any rashness, Cui Daqi nodded approvingly:
âYou lad, in this respect youâre nothing like Senior Brother Yao; if it were him, his tail would be sticking up into the sky right now.â
âBy the way, what did Song Dongyang say when he called you over?â
Wang Ba nodded, then briefly recounted what had transpired in Diwu Hall.
Cui Daqiâs face immediately showed admiration:
âNot bad, since Song Dongyang is willing to bring you up, he is certain of your abilities.
Itâs appropriate to show your skills when needed.
Attend to the tasks he gives you, and make sure no one can find fault.
Within the Sect, as long as you donât make mistakes, no one will remove you from your post except at the end of your termâŚ
However, I didnât expect him to agree to arrange two Vice Minister positions for you, and he was even willing to give you the position of Right Enforcer in the Diwu Hall.â
âIs there anything special about that?â
Wang Ba couldnât help but ask curiously.
âItâs not too special, but reaching the position of Left and Right Enforcer is generally the limit for ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators.
Most of us Ministers and Vice Ministers are exceptionally skilled, which is why we receive preferential treatment,â Cui Daqi explained casually.
âOf course, there are many Enforcers, but within a hall, there are only two people who are Left and Right Enforcers.
It seems Song Dongyang also values you highly.â
Hearing this, Wang Ba couldnât help but nod.
The treatment of the Right Enforcer in Diwu Hall, especially regarding merits, was even higher than a Vice Minister at 800 points.
Although it was not as much as a Ministerâs, the benefits and treatment were also higher than those of a typical Vice Minister.
Add to that the salaries of the Vice Minister of the Spirit Food Department and the Beast Department.
All together, Wang Baâs total treatment was no less than that of a Ministerâs.
This indeed showed how much Song Dongyang valued him.
Thinking of this, he felt slightly more favorable towards Song Dongyang.
At that moment, Cui Daqi suddenly remembered something and slapped his head, âI almost forgot, I said I had a surprise for you.â
Wang Ba was taken aback, then he also remembered.
But Cui Daqi had already impatiently sent a message to the room next door.
After a while,
big drinker He walked in with an expressionless face.
Wang Ba was a bit surprised.
Wasnât it about a surprise?
Why had big drinker He been called over as well?
Cui Daqi, however, looked towards big drinker He and said with a smile:
âItâs up to you now, Old He.â
big drinker He cast a glance at Cui Daqi and remained silent.
He then took out two jade slips and a gourd of wine from his sleeve and tossed them directly to Wang Ba.
Although puzzled, Wang Ba still carefully caught the two jade slips and the gourd.
Looking at big drinker He:
âMartial Uncle He, this isâŚ?â
âThe Art of Bud Group Refining and a recipe for Chunqiuzui Wine,â
âand Iâm giving you a gourd of âChunqiuzuiâ aged eight hundred years,â
said big drinker He, his face looking sullen.
One could barely see the pain he was suppressing on his face.
On the other side, Cui Daqi explained with a smile:
âThe Art of Bud Group Refining is something only Martial Uncle He can do in our Sect.
Once youâve learned this spell, you can mass-produce spirit food from spirit plants, which is quite useful.â
âAs for the recipe of âChunqiuzui,â itâs a closely guarded secret of Martial Uncle He.
After drinking it, one becomes more perceptiveâŚâ
âDonât speak nonsense if you donât understand,â
interrupted big drinker He impatiently when he heard Cui Daqiâs boast, then he turned to Wang Ba with a serious look and said:
âChunqiuzui is extremely special.
Although it is non-grade, when it is first brewed, its effects are about the same as a Class I spirit wine.â
âBut as years go by, Chunqiuzui becomes richer and develops some unique effects.â
âIt is filled with Spiritual Energy after aging ten years.â
âAfter a hundred years, it can nourish the Soul.â
âAfter a thousand years, it brings clarity to body and mind, allowing one to perceive changes in the world around them and is most suitable for use in Enlightenment.â
âAs for ten thousand yearsâŚâ
âWhat about ten thousand years?â
asked Cui Daqi curiously.
Sadly, big drinker He shook his head:
âTill this day in Spirit Wine Peak, we have no Immortal Ascension practitioners, no one can live for ten thousand years, and the brewing and maintenance of this wine recognize only one person.
Once another cultivatorâs mana is mixed in, it will fail and become ineffectiveâŚ
Therefore, no one knows the effects of Chunqiuzui Wine aged ten thousand years.â
Turning to Wang Ba, big drinker He said earnestly:
âFor this wine, you can drink one gourd at each stage, and only the first gourd will have an effect.â
âThe Chunqiuzui Wine aged eight hundred years will enhance your Soul beyond your imagination, but if your Soul is slightly weak, it can also make you completely drunk, and it would not be strange to fall asleep for a hundred years.
Therefore, if your Soul has not reached the peak of the Golden Core, do not drink it lightly.â
Hearing this, Wang Ba hesitated:
