Peerless Taoist

At this moment, the banquet was still in progress. Quite a few people were sitting there drinking wine and having fun.    

Even though there were waves of laughter and laughter, everyone's eyes were fixed on a pavilion at the center of the lake.    

There were only two people in the pavilion. An old man wearing a straw cape and a bamboo hat leaned against the pavilion. Opposite him, there was a beautiful woman with a delicate face sitting on the ground, thinking hard.    

This woman was the eldest daughter of the Chu family, Chu Yuruo.    

In the air in front of her, there was a picture scroll floating in the air.    

The painting depicted the two of them in the pavilion. The woman was refining pills and the man was painting. The two of them looked at each other and smiled.    

It was just a simple painting of ink and water. However, if one looked closely, one could see that the surroundings of the picture scroll were emitting waves of powerful magical energy. The air around them was faintly vibrating.    

"How is it? Can you comprehend it?" The old man in the raincoat asked in a hoarse voice.    

Chu Yuruo frowned, as if she was thinking about something. She only shook her head when blood flowed out of the corner of her mouth. "The painting's cultivation level is too high, but I can see that she is refining a Life Continuing Pill."    

Ripples suddenly appeared in the old man's eyes.    

He continued to ask, "What else can you see?"    

Chu Yuruo said bitterly, "Men don't seem to have much time left. The woman wants to use this Life Continuing Pill to let men live longer. The man's painting skills had already surpassed everyone else. He wanted to use the cultivation level of his life. Integrate the woman into the painting and let her live forever with the painting."    

After saying that, Chu Yuruo closed her eyes, and a trace of fragrant sweat appeared on her fair forehead.    

Comprehending a painting of this level was already her limit.    

If not for the fact that the soul of an alchemist was stronger than the others, she might not have been able to persist until now.    

On the opposite side, the old man in the raincoat closed his eyes in pain. After a long while, he took a deep breath and said, "It's not bad to be able to comprehend all of this. Unfortunately, you didn't comprehend Ah Ling's Life Continuing Pill."    

A trace of regret flashed across Chu Yuruo's eyes.    

She had come to Tianjing City firstly to attend the Lu Family Ancestor's seclusion ceremony, and secondly, to attend the River of Qu Banquet.    

It was rumored that the painting attainments of the guests in the pool were extremely high, and one of his paintings was able to draw out all kinds of things in the world. Regardless of whether it was an alchemist concocting pills or a battle between experts, they would all be vivid and lifelike in his painting.    

There was once someone who had comprehended a peerless technique from his painting, and thus dominated a region.    

Today, Chu Yuruo came here to comprehend the Life Continuing Pill's formula from the painting.    

Unfortunately, even though she persisted for a long time, up until now, she still did not comprehend a single trace of the Life Continuing Pill.    

Preparing to say, her realm was still too low.    

"Senior, I still want to persist for a bit longer." Chu Yuruo insisted.    

The old man in the raincoat nodded: "Today is the last day of my banquet. Before the sun sets, you can study here"    

Chu Yu closed his eyes and rested for a moment before starting to meditate again.    

Such an opportunity was extremely rare. How could she possibly give it up?    

At this time, Lu Yu also saw Chu Yuruo sitting in the pavilion.    

Lu Yu found a place to sit and did not disturb Chu Yuruo.    

"Fairy Chu is starting to comprehend again."    

"The alchemists of the Chu Family are all monsters. It is rumoured that their spiritual energy is extremely strong. I almost vomited blood when I look at this painting. I never thought that this delicate girl would be able to persist for such a long time."    

"I wonder if she will be able to obtain the treasure of the person in the pool. I am rather curious. What treasure is it that can allow one to become an immortal after obtaining it?"
