"Eh? How has this place changed so much?" After escaping from Bai E’s demonic claws, Liang Yi found the environment around him was no longer the small fence courtyard they were in just moments ago.
At this moment, they were standing in a purple bamboo forest, with a little stream flowing in the middle, and shimmering under the sunlight.
And in front of them were a few desks and futons laid out.
"Brother, is this an Illusion Realm?" Su Youyi, ignoring Liu Rouxin who was making faces at her, went straight back to her senior brother’s side. With so many girls around, she needed to keep a close watch on her senior brother.
"No... It shouldn’t be." Liang Yi felt amazed because he hadn’t noticed the change in their surroundings at all as if it was just a blink of an eye and they were previously in the courtyard, and the next moment beside this stream.
Such Daoist Skill could easily kill an enemy silently and effortlessly if used against them.
"It’s just the effect of the array." Zhou Yuqing spoke faintly, the only one among them who clearly noticed the changes in the surrounding array.
"How many arrays have been set up in this Secret Realm?" Liang Yi couldn’t help but be amazed, just having perceived and encountered hundreds of distinct arrays as they walked along.
"If you’re tired, take a seat for a while. You didn’t come here just for sparring, did you?" Bai E was already sitting in front of a desk, brewing a pot of tea for everyone.
Zhou Yuqing sat down first, followed by Liang Yi and Su Youyi courteously sitting as well, and finally, Pang Qingshi, with the reluctant Liu Rouxin, gave Liang Yi a faint smile before sitting not far opposite him.
Bai E’s tea-brewing technique was exceptionally artistic, every movement held an inexplicable rhythm, making it comfortable for anyone watching.
Su Youyi sniffed lightly, not knowing since when the fragrance of the tea began to linger around the nose, she could even distinguish several Spiritual Medicine scents from this aroma.
The aroma alone, without even tasting the tea, brought tranquility to one’s mood. Coupled with the surrounding mountain streams and boundless sea of bamboo, it provided a different kind of experience.
"Natural Laws." Uncle Orange, rubbing his slightly swollen buttocks, did not know when he returned next to Liang Yi and squatted on a mini futon.
Liang Yi suddenly realized, no wonder there was a feeling that he was familiar with; the fragrance of the tea contained the essence of Natural Laws.
Although Bai E is a quintessential homebody, her cultivation realm ranks among the top in the Senluo Wanxiang Sect, already in the Eighth Realm, she has long had her own comprehension of Laws.
"Bai Palace Master’s Bamboo Elixir Tea is a unique treasure of our Senluo Wanxiang Sect, not something ordinary people can enjoy," Pang Qingshi explained to Liang Yi and the others after Bai E took out six milky-white Spirit Pills from her ring and put them into their cups.
"The spiritual water from Mt. Wudao paired with the Heavenly Spirit Bamboo Leaves, and finally added with No Illusion Spirit Pills, enhances cultivation while nourishing the Divine Soul and repairing damages, making it a First-grade Spiritual Tea."
"It’s not as spectacular as others boast." Bai E gestured lightly, and porcelain teacups on the desk in front of her steadily flew towards everyone, Uncle Orange included.
"The spring water and bamboo leaves are always available; however, it’s just that the No Illusion Spirit Pills are somewhat troublesome to concoct. These few were just freshly concocted a few days ago."
"We are indeed lucky this time." Liang Yi caught the floating teacup, closed his eyes and took a gentle sniff, feeling his mind clear instantly and his entire being felt much lighter.
Zhou Yuqing exhibited the same expression on the side.
She originally thought that this type of Spiritual Tea would have no effect on a cultivator of the Eighth Realm like herself, but it turned out she was wrong.
Although it was not as evident as it was for Liang Yi and Su Youyi, a sip of the cool tea did not bring any feeling of dry heat but rather a refreshing coolness. What was even more miraculous was that this coolness did not clash with her Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, but instead subtly complemented it.
"How vibrant with vitality!" Zhou Yuqing admired the Elixir Tea in her hand, having already vaguely guessed its main ingredient.
Besides Zhou Yuqing, everyone else was closing their eyes, enjoying the comfortable sensation rising within them.
"Excellent tea!" Su Youyi opened her eyes, somewhat astonished after sensing the changes within her.
"Ding! Consumed an orange item[Bamboo Elixir Tea], Experience increased by 200W, all attributes +20!"
"Wow! Such an amazing Spiritual Tea." Seeing the notification on the panel, Liang Yi’s eyes widened.
This cup of tea had rewards richer than those of a mission. Especially the increase in all attributes, which in a regular mission would usually cost one’s life multiple times.
Pang Qingshi and Liu Rouxin opposite Liang Yi also opened their eyes at the same time, showing the same incredulous expression as Liang Yi and Su Youyi, all astounded by the effects of the cup of Elixir Tea.
"Have you never drunk it before?" Liu Rouxin, seeing her dear sister’s reaction, asked in puzzlement.
Logically speaking, how could Pang Qingshi, the jewel of Senluo Wanxiang Sect, have never drunk this Bamboo Elixir Tea? ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ⓝovelFire.net
"Haha, Qingshi really has bad luck." Palace Master Bai E laughed upon hearing Liu Rouxin’s confusion.
Pang Qingshi showed no sign of embarrassment, calmly explaining:
"As the Chief, I have many responsibilities, so I seldom stay in the sect. Every time I return, either there are no ingredients to refine the No Illusion Spirit Pill, or it’s not yet refined, and by the time it’s ready, I have another task and have to leave. So, I’ve never had the chance to taste Palace Master Bai’s Bamboo Elixir Tea."
Liang Yi and Su Youyi exchanged glances, both feeling it incredulous; could this be a natural misfortune?
And was this chance to drink the tea because this lucky guy brought good fortune to Pang Qingshi as well?
"Alright, then what did you bring them here for?" Seeing that everyone had finished their tea, Bai E waved gently. Both the teapot in front of him and the cups in everyone’s hands dissipated into wisps of white mist.
"It’s about their wish to form an alliance with the Blood Control Sect." Pang Qingshi explained the matter to Bai E and Liu Rouxin.
"To think of forming an alliance with the Blood Control Sect? How curious." Bai E blinked and looked at Liang Yi with an amused expression.
It’s known that since the founding of the Blood Control Sect, there has only been one ally, the Senluo Wanxiang Sect. Before the emergence of Senluo Wanxiang Sect, the Blood Control Sect had always been solitary.
Nobody wanted to associate with them!
The main reason was the unflattering reputation of the Blood Control Sect outside; to say they are arrogant is an understatement.
