Step by Step Ascend to Immortality - Chapter 109 - 99 Spiritual Tea

Chapter 109: Chapter 99 Spiritual Tea

Liu Suiyun quickly and respectfully took the teacup. “The Mengding Ganlu brewed by Master’s wife must be extremely good. Disciple has the opportunity to taste it. It really is a fate that comes only once in many years!”

Shen Yaqin gave Liu Suiyun a sidelong glance. “This child of yours not only looks pleasing to the eye but also has a sweet mouth. Your two senior brothers have to be careful!”

Chen Xingrui joked on the side. “Master’s wife, you are being partial. Why is the youngest one the most favored?”

Guan Mingyue also took the teacup on the side. “I am the most pitiful one!”

Liu Suiyun then carefully raised the teacup. The tea set was of high-quality official kiln ware, as white as snow. Although Liu Suiyun had experienced prosperity once, this was the first time he had seen such a good tea set.

As for the floating tea leaves, they were lush and vivid, as if just picked from the tea tree. At a glance, they were excellent tea leaves. Just smelling the tea fragrance, one could tell that it was by no means comparable to ordinary tea leaves. Liu Suiyun took a deep breath and then carefully took a sip.

Just as this sip of clear tea entered his mouth, Liu Suiyun only felt that he didn’t know where he was. It was as if he was in a sea of clouds. Beneath him were countless fairy mountains, and above his head was the highest heaven. From head to toe, he felt a sense of floating as if transcending the mortal world.

It took a long time for Liu Suiyun to come to his senses. Then he quickly raised the teacup. Regardless of the fact that the tea was very hot, he directly poured it into his mouth and drank up a cup of clear tea completely, without even leaving a bit of tea dregs. He almost gnawed off half of the teacup.

“Junior Brother, slow down, slow down!”

“Junior Brother, Master’s wife’s tea is good, right! If Master’s wife is willing to take out this Mengding Ganlu every day, I would rather not drink a drop of wine!”

Shen Yaqin was both distressed and annoyed. She carried the teapot over and said, “You child. You don’t have to drink like a cow just because you haven’t had good tea before! Don’t worry. Tonight, there is enough tea. You can have as much as you want!”

“Master’s wife is really partial!” Chen Xingrui shouted on the side. “Master’s wife, why didn’t I have such good treatment when I entered?”

Shen Yaqin had already refilled Liu Suiyun’s tea. “You are a well-known multi-treasure cultivator in our sect. You can’t compare to your junior brother who has had a hard life since childhood and hasn’t even had a cup of good tea. When you come to our Chonghua Peak, Master’s wife can’t mistreat her disciple. Suiyun, how do you think Master’s wife’s tea is?”

Liu Suiyun only felt that the spiritual energy in his body was flowing extremely smoothly, and his state was extremely good, as if he had been sprinkled by the rain of the black-haired loli. “Master’s wife… disciple… disciple has never had such good tea!”

“Not bad, not bad. There is enough tea!” Shen Yaqin was beaming. “Don’t worry. There is still plenty of Mengding Ganlu!”

But Liu Suiyun’s next sentence almost made Shen Yaqin unable to hold the large teapot firmly. “Master’s wife, your tea leaves are really good. I just drank a cup, and I actually broke through to the tenth level of Qi Condensation!”

In fact, it was just breaking through to the tenth level of Qi Condensation again. Liu Suiyun had already broken through to the tenth level of Qi Condensation once before with the Five Peaks Talisman and the remains of Feng Canlang. Just now, in the transcendent state, the “Extreme Yuan Thunder Forging Divine Record” automatically operated. The essence of qi and blood accumulated in Liu Suiyun’s body was immediately refined by more than half, and he unknowingly broke through to the tenth level of Qi Condensation. For Liu Suiyun, this was really an unexpected joy.

“Broken through to the tenth level of Qi Condensation?” Shen Yaqin had already filled Chen Xingrui’s cup. “And it has this effect? Probably because it’s your first time drinking it, and the spiritual energy overflows your body.”

Liu Suiyun was very concerned about this Mengding Ganlu. He asked, “Master’s wife, this tea is really good. I don’t know where it is produced? Disciple also wants to go and buy a few catties to show filial piety to Master’s wife.”

“A few catties?” Chen Xingrui laughed on the side. “Little Junior Brother, you don’t understand the market!”

“Not to mention that since the great change in the Middle-earth Tang Dynasty, it has been isolated from our firmament for hundreds of years. Even if you have the opportunity to go to the Middle-earth Tang Dynasty, this real Mengding Ganlu is only picked once every hundred years, and each time it is only a dozen catties. In the Middle-earth Tang Dynasty, it is also considered a first-class famous tea. It is extremely difficult to obtain even with ten thousand gold. Even with spirit stones, it is difficult to obtain a few taels.”

Liu Suiyun couldn’t help being surprised. “This is actually spiritual tea from the Middle-earth Tang Dynasty? No wonder, no wonder. It’s really good tea! Master’s wife, if disciple has the opportunity to go to the Middle-earth Tang Dynasty, I will definitely bring back a few catties more for Master’s wife!”

Guan Mingyue interrupted on the side. “Then Junior Brother must also bring a few catties for me. If it’s dozens or hundreds of catties, that would be even better!”

“Having this intention is enough!” Shen Yaqin replied. “Since the great change, our firmament has been isolated from the Middle-earth Tang Dynasty for more than hundreds of years. We have never heard of anyone who can return from the Middle-earth Tang Dynasty. Presumably, this Mengshan Ganlu cannot be obtained. Instead of thinking about going to the Middle-earth Tang Dynasty, you brothers should look at the whole world…”

“Our firmament is hundreds of millions of miles in circumference and there are thousands of countries. There are countless wild regions and vast seas. Unfortunately, your master and I like tranquility and dislike activity. So Master’s wife has only traveled to a corner of the firmament. If you graduate as disciples, you must travel all over the firmament and not waste this wonderful youth!”

Liu Suiyun naturally remembered Shen Yaqin’s advice in his heart. However, with the lingering fragrance between his teeth, he was still thinking about how he had inexplicably broken through to the tenth level of Qi Condensation. Shen Yaqin said it was because it was his first time tasting Mengding Ganlu. Liu Suiyun felt that the reason might not be so.

On the side, Guan Shanyue shouted, “Junior Brother, don’t drink like a cow just now. This tea should be sipped and savored slowly. If you drink like a cow, isn’t it like a bull chewing on a peony and wasting Master’s wife’s excellent tea…”

Liu Suiyun was moved by these words. Then he heard a sound of breaking through the clouds in the sky. Looking up, he saw a giant crane as large as a tower flying towards Chonghua Peak. He couldn’t help exclaiming, “Master’s wife, Crane has flown back!”

This giant crane was extremely spiritual and as fast as a meteor. But the closer it flew, the smaller it became. It became smaller and smaller, and its speed also became slower and slower. When it finally fell into Shen Yaqin’s hand, it turned back into the original small paper crane.

Shen Yaqin pinched the small paper crane with her slender hand and heard a strong old man’s voice coming from the small paper crane. “True Lord Yunpeng of Guihu Cave pays his respects. I am extremely honored to be invited by Fairy Shen to come to Chonghua Peak from tens of thousands of miles away. Coincidentally, my good friend True Lord Zongyun is visiting. Wait for a moment. I will bring my friend and ascend Chonghua Peak together.”

This tone was extremely respectful. Although True Lord Yunpeng was also a Golden Elixir cultivator, in these words, he almost regarded himself as a junior at the Foundation Establishment stage or Qi Condensation stage. Liu Suiyun couldn’t help being secretly impressed by Shen Yaqin’s means.

Shen Yaqin casually restored the small paper crane to its original shape, spread out the rice paper, and pressed it on the stone table. This paper crane that had delivered a message tens of thousands of miles had turned back into the original white paper without leaving even a single wrinkle. “If True Lord Yunpeng is willing to come, that would be the best. But since he has brought True Lord Zongyun along, I’m afraid we will have to wait for a while. Taste Master’s wife’s tea again.”

Chen Xingrui said disdainfully, “Is it that True Lord Zongyun who is number one in flying upside down and last in flying right side up?”

“It’s not last either!” Shen Yaqin immediately replied. “But when he flies right side up, among Golden Elixir cultivators, he is almost at the bottom.”

Liu Suiyun was somewhat puzzled. Only then did he know that although True Lord Zongyun was a Golden Elixir cultivator, his ability in flight was in flying upside down. For example, flying with a sword upside down or flying backward with a sword. He could be said to be number one below the Nascent Soul stage. But when it came to the most crucial flying with a sword, he was completely incompetent. Chen Xingrui replied, “With True Lord Zongyun’s slow speed, perhaps we brothers will have to accompany Master’s wife and drink until dawn…”

Liu Suiyun remembered that True Lord Yunpeng had said “delivering a message tens of thousands of miles.” Although he didn’t specify in detail, Liu Suiyun estimated that this was only the one-way distance for delivering the message. He looked up again. Although the night was already deep and the stars were twinkling, counting from the time Shen Yaqin folded the paper crane until now, Liu Suiyun had only drunk a few sips of tea. At most, it was only two hours.

In less than two hours, this ordinary white paper folded into a paper crane had traveled tens of thousands of miles. In the past, Liu Suiyun had thought that those stories of beheading people with a flying sword from tens of thousands of miles away were all fictional. After seeing Master’s wife’s means today, Liu Suiyun believed that it was really true.

Surely it was the means of a true immortal. Unconsciously, Liu Suiyun drank another large cup. Then he saw a golden talisman fly back. After falling into Shen Yaqin’s hand, Shen Yaqin took a look and said to Liu Suiyun, “Miss Guo Huijun has been settled properly. When dawn breaks, someone will send her to Chonghua Peak to meet you!”

Having seen Shen Yaqin’s true immortal means before, Liu Suiyun was not surprised by this golden talisman that delivered a message for hundreds of miles. “Thank you, Master’s wife! I want to ask Master’s wife, when True Lord Yunpeng comes to Chonghua Peak, how should disciple treat him?”

“Just act with an ordinary heart!” Shen Yaqin asked. “If you have an unresolvable hatred with True Lord Yunpeng, then tell Master’s wife earlier. Master’s wife will cut him and True Lord Zongyun with one sword!”

Shen Yaqin said this extremely easily, as if True Lord Yunpeng and True Lord Zongyun, these two Golden Elixir cultivators, were like two tied-up chicks. She could cut off their heads with one sword. But Liu Suiyun had an insight. That was, Shen Yaqin could definitely do what she said. He immediately said, “Disciple just killed some people from the Pang family. There is no deep grudge with True Lord Yunpeng!”

Chen Xingrui clicked his tongue and praised. “Junior Brother really downplays it. You killed at least several hundred people from the Pang family, right?”

“Compared to Master’s wife’s true immortal means, what am I?” Liu Suiyun spoke his true thoughts. “As soon as Master’s wife’s fairy sword comes out, destroying a country or slaughtering a city is just a matter of moving a finger.”

Shen Yaqin shook her head. “My Fanjing Sword doesn’t have such means. Even killing a chicken, Master’s wife can’t do it neatly. Eh? What’s wrong with True Lord Zongyun? Why is he coming so fast?”

Liu Suiyun estimated the time. It was only a little more than half an hour since the paper crane flew back. Although this time was almost enough for the crane to fly back from Guihu Cave to Chonghua Peak. And True Lord Yunpeng and True Lord Zongyun followed closely after the paper crane. In terms of speed, they were far inferior to the paper crane folded by Shen Yaqin. But being able to fly tens of thousands of miles with a flying sword in less than two hours, only Golden Elixir cultivators can have such means.

But True Lord Yunpeng and True Lord Zongyun didn’t appear in Liu Suiyun’s sight for a long time. Until about a quarter of an hour later, Chu Cangshan, the steward of Chonghua Peak, came running over. “Cangshan has seen Madam. According to the report of the disciples patrolling the mountain, True Lord Yunpeng and True Lord Zongyun are flying towards Chonghua Peak with their flying swords. They say they are visiting at Madam’s invitation. They will arrive in a quarter of an hour!”

Surely it was the means of a true immortal!
