Three rounds of drinks later, everyone was tipsy.
This spirit wine had been specially chosen by Mi Lan. It was rich in spiritual energy and had a powerful aftereffect. Unless they were in the Saint Realm, cultivators who drank too much would need at least an hour or two to purge the alcohol with their cultivation, even if they tried desperately. However, ordinary people were generally unwilling to purge this aftereffect, because once the potency dissipated naturally, it would significantly boost their cultivation.
This wine was particularly effective the first time one drank it; drinking it often thereafter was about the same as ordinary cultivation, and once one reached Saint Entry, it had no effect at all. Therefore, Mi Lan was not boasting—the price was truly astronomical. Jubao Pavilion in Beilin City only had a little over a dozen jars in total, and Mi Lan had bought every single one of them.
