Chapter 188: Chapter 112: Grade 3 Spirit Plant, 100-Year Spirit Tea Tree (Part 2)

The newly sprouted buds are naturally of extremely high value, being the accumulation of Spiritual Power from a centennial tree, containing the great creation of a Third-Grade Spirit Plant.

But in Zhou Changwang’s view, what was even more valuable were those century-old tea leaves preserved to this day.

Those were the Top-Grade Spirit Tea nurtured over a hundred years.

Without hesitation, Zhou Changwang began to pick them one by one.

In the end, after summarizing, he obtained five pounds of tender tea leaves and thirty pounds of century-old tea leaves.

Zhou Changwang didn’t process them himself, as he didn’t know the technique. Regular aged spirit tea would be fine, but these century-old tea leaves that reached Third-Grade level would likely be wasted if handled with his rough technique.

He simply used the Spirit Rain Skill to gather a pool of Spirit Water, then directed it with the Water Spirit Skill and roasted it with the Fireball Technique.

Then he poured it all into a wooden bowl, placing one piece of the century-old tea leaf inside.

Instantly, tea brewed out, rich in ’red,’ the color striking, subtly amber-like, with a rich tea fragrance that intoxicates at a mere sniff.

Zhou Changwang couldn’t help but take a gentle sip.

His eyes immediately shone.

The intense Spiritual Qi infused with the tea immediately surged two auras upon entrance, one nourishing his body and soul, subtly cleansing the impurities within him.

The other aura surged to his brain and Heart Spirit, bringing a sense of calm and mental clarity, unexpectedly providing answers to many long-standing difficult problems.

Gaining clearer understanding in various aspects like magic techniques, arrays, body cultivation techniques, and even cultivation technique operations.

"Enlightenment?

No, this is the awakening of the heart, seeing one’s true nature."

Zhou Changwang estimated that at this moment, regardless of which Dharma Gate, magic technique, or martial arts he learned, the speed of learning would be improved.

He quickly drank it all in one gulp, then used Thousand Thunder Flashes.

In the Spirit Field, besides this Hundred-Year-Old Red Leaf Spirit Tea Tree, it was already empty, and the power of Thousand Thunder Flashes wasn’t too strong, so it wouldn’t cause much damage to the Spirit Field.

Thus, when his Thousand Thunder Flashes was used, covering the ground in an instant.

Countless Thunder Snakes scrambled, resembling the scene of purgatory, indeed quite impactful.

However, Zhou Changwang didn’t pay much attention to it.

Instead, he quietly recalled the feeling and cast the spell again.

Thousand Thunder Flashes +1

Thousand Thunder Flashes +2

Thousand Thunder Flashes +1

Thousand Thunder Flashes +3

...

Inspiration would strike occasionally, and the resulting experience points would increase dramatically.

"A piece of Red Leaf Spirit Tea can sustain half an hour of cultivation effects.

Good tea, good Spirit Tea.

Truly not in vain for my month’s hard cultivation."

Zhou Changwang was truly excited, marveling.

Testing that tender tea leaf again.

The effect, as he expected, couldn’t compare to the century-old tea leaf, but it also had the effect of nourishing the body, awakening the mind, and enhancing enlightenment.

Overall, the effect was weaker by fifty percent, sustaining only the time of a stick of incense.

But even so, it was astonishing enough.

In the marketplace, Spirit Tea leaves from such centennial Spirit Tea Trees are priceless. Only the big figures in the marketplace could afford to drink them.

The shops mostly have leaves from ten-year-old Spirit Tea Trees, and even those are from First-Grade Spirit Tea Trees, priced at ten Lower-Grade Spirit Stones per pound. Better ones, from trees aged thirty to fifty years, only cost twenty to thirty Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

Spirit Tea produced from Second-Grade Spirit Tea Leaves has already quite high quality. Ten-year-old ones require seventy to eighty Lower-Grade Spirit Stones per pound.

Over fifty-year-old Second-Grade Spirit Tea Leaves could be considered treasures of a shop, mostly sold by ’taels,’ and three to five hundred Lower-Grade Spirit Stones per pound is not uncommon.

"And mine, these are truly century-old Spirit Tea leaves with solid essence.

The Spirit Tea Tree has even advanced to Third Grade..."

Zhou Changwang estimated in his heart that selling dry tea made from a pound of tender tea leaves for one or two thousand Lower-Grade Spirit Stones wouldn’t be a problem.

Then Zhou Changwang truly left the house.

This time going out,

Zhou Changwang intended not only to sell Spirit Gathering Grass but also to invite Shen Xinyue to complete the long-awaited cultivation transaction for him.

Because by now, there was only one day left before the agreed trading time with Luoxia Fairy.

...

Shuiyun Pavilion!

This time, Zhou Changwang didn’t go through Qian Xiaoyue to invite Shen Xinyue but directly approached the marketplace steward, straightforwardly requesting a visit.

Fortunately, after several comings and goings, he was well-known inside and outside Shuiyun Pavilion. So someone quickly went to report to the backyard.

After a short while, he was invited in.

Still in that sitting room.

After Zhou Changwang waited for a while, a lady wearing a light green magic robe with an elegant figure entered, it was Shen Xinyue.

"Greetings, Elder Shen!"

Zhou Changwang immediately greeted.

At this moment, his cultivation appeared externally to be at the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer.

The perfection level of Concealing Breath Technique completely concealed his aura, as hard for an Eighth-Layer Qi Cultivation practitioner to detect as it would be for an Eighth-Layer Foundation Establishment True Cultivator powerhouse.

And this was the first time Zhou Changwang ever hid his cultivation in front of others.

Previously, his cultivation was too low, so there was no need.

"You came this time for the cultivation transaction you mentioned last time, right?"

Seeing Zhou Changwang, Shen Xinyue waved her hand and asked.

She indeed remembered agreeing to support Zhou Changwang last time.

"Tomorrow is the official trading day.
