Chapter 1223 The Immortal Tea in the Wind and Rain
In the square, everyone was silent, trembling with fear.
This is what happens when you offend someone important!
After finishing his business, Feng Wanli immediately put on an extremely humble smile and personally took out three purple-gold tokens engraved with ancient divine patterns from his pocket, presenting them to Ye Chen with both hands.
"Distinguished guests, this is the highest-level Purple Gold Prodigy Token of this establishment. Holding this token grants you direct entry into the final rounds without needing to participate in any preliminary selections."
"What happened just now was due to Xiaolou's lax discipline. To express my apology, all expenses for the three of you in the capital will be covered by Fengyulou!"
The second floor.
Gu Hanchuan struggled to get up from the ground. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked down at everything that was happening in Baiyu Square with a sinister gaze.
His pride was shattered by the imperial aura he had just witnessed.
He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, and blood dripped from between his fingers.
Kunlun Holy Land!
Imperial Decree!
He chewed over these words in his mind, each one carrying the taste of blood.
Shi Kai and Mu Wanling, who were standing nearby, had slowly stood up, and their gazes toward Ye Chen and the other two had completely changed.
They exchanged a glance and both saw relief and lingering fear in each other's eyes.
Their act of kindness just now seems to have been the best decision they ever made.
"We were unaware of your arrival, and we apologize for any shortcomings in our hospitality!"
He bowed deeply to Ye Chen, adopting an extremely humble posture.
This scene made the hearts of the cultivators who dared to peek through their narrow eyes in the distance almost jump out of their throats!
The master of Fengyu Tower, such a revered figure, is now bowing so deeply to a young man!
After dealing with all this, Feng Wanli turned to Ye Chen again, his respectful expression even stronger.
"This place is too noisy and will offend the eyes of our distinguished guests."
“I have prepared a quiet place for the three of you. Please follow me.”
Ye Chen neither agreed nor disagreed, but simply nodded slightly.
Xie Purou made a face at Feng Wanli, then smugly put away the Imperial Decree.
Led by Feng Wanli, the three of them crossed the square and headed deeper into the Wind and Rain Pavilion.
With each step they took, ripples spread through the space in front of them, and countless dazzling arrays of restrictive formations automatically parted in front of Feng Wanli, making way for him.
Along the way, many distinguished guests followed their gaze.
When they saw that the host, Feng Wanli, was personally leading a young man in white along the legendary forbidden path, everyone looked as if they had seen a ghost!
"Where is the poster taking people?"
"That direction...could it be...the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace?!"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Who, besides His Majesty the Holy Emperor, is qualified to enter that place!"
Shocked discussions rippled through the minds of these powerful figures, their gazes toward Ye Chen and his companions filled with utter disbelief and disbelief.
After passing through numerous restrictions, the view before us suddenly opened up.
A celestial palace, entirely forged from ten-thousand-year-old star jade, floats silently above the sea of clouds in the nine heavens.
The entire celestial palace was crystal clear, radiating the light of the sun, moon, and stars. Celestial light flowed within the palace, and the dense spiritual energy was so rich that it almost turned into liquid, gathering on the ground to form babbling brooks.
Profound and unfathomable runes of law flowed among the beams and pillars of the palace; these were the enlightenment arrays personally laid out by the Holy Emperor!
Feng Wanli stopped in his tracks, stood respectfully to the side, and spoke with utmost reverence.
"Honored guest, this is the Nine Heavens Celestial Palace."
He took a deep breath, his voice trembling slightly.
"Since the Fengyu Tower was built, only His Majesty the Holy Emperor has ever set foot in this hall."
Upon hearing this, the elders and protectors who had been following far behind, daring to spy, were all petrified on the spot.
"Wow!"
Xie Purou exclaimed in surprise, unable to contain herself any longer, and ran around the fairy palace like a happy little deer.
She touched the pillar, which was carved entirely from star jade, and then leaned on the railing, looking down at the surging sea of clouds, her face flushed with excitement.
"Master! Master, look! Just one breath of this spiritual energy feels like I'm about to break through!"
You Ruo also showed a rare look of surprise. She slowly walked to the front of the hall, stretched out her slender hand, and gently caught a drop of "rainwater" formed by spiritual energy, feeling the pure energy contained within it.
Ye Chen, however, seemed to have stepped into his own backyard.
With a calm expression, he strolled to a table in the center of the celestial palace, carved from a single piece of divine jade, and sat down directly.
He glanced at the empty, exquisite tea set on the table, then looked up at Feng Wanli, who was still bowing and barely daring to breathe.
Do you have tea?
Ye Chen's two simple words, however, sounded to Feng Wanli no less powerful than an imperial edict.
He was jolted awake, instantly snapping out of his extreme panic.
Yes! Yes! Of course!
Feng Wanli nodded repeatedly, bending even lower, his face filled with a humble and apprehensive smile.
"Honored guest, please wait a moment! This junior will go and fetch it right away!"
He dared not be negligent in the slightest, much less delegate his work to others.
This is an incredible opportunity!
It is not only a chance to make amends for mistakes, but also an excellent opportunity to build positive relationships!
Feng Wanli turned around and formed a mysterious hand seal in front of him.
hum!
A crack appeared in the space in front of him, from which an intense, pervasive Daoist aura emanated.
He carefully reached his hand in, and when he pulled it out, there was a palm-sized box in his palm, carved entirely from warm jade.
The moment the box is opened.
An indescribable fragrance instantly filled the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Palace.
That was not the fragrance of ordinary tea, but a fragrance of Taoism that permeated the soul!
With just a light sniff, Xie Purou and You Ruo felt their souls become lighter and their immortal power began to activate!
“This is… the ‘Wind and Rain Immortal Tea’ that I have treasured for 300,000 years.”
Feng Wanli's voice carried visible heartache, but even more so, it was one of honor.
"This tea grows in a wondrous place at the beginning of chaos. It takes 30,000 years for a tender bud to sprout and 30,000 years to be harvested. After harvesting, it needs to be nurtured by the fire of the origin of heaven and earth for another 30,000 years before it can become tea."
"All I have right now is eighty-one pieces in total."
As he spoke, he used specially made jade tweezers to carefully pick up a tea leaf that was as thin as a cicada's wing but imprinted with natural Dao patterns.
Put the tea leaves into the cup.
Feng Wanli flipped his hand again and took out a crystal bottle.
The bottle contained a crystal-clear liquid, yet wisps of a dark yellow aura emanated from it.
"This water is the 'Holy Water of the Yellow Springs' collected from the depths of the Nine Nether Earth Veins. A single drop can reshape the physical body and cleanse the soul."
