Chapter 90 - Ch 90: Extreme Ice Sage Leaf
"Lin Ling, Do you want to become my disciple." Sect leader of the White Snow Sect asked. From the moment she saw Lin Ling's first fight, she wanted to take her under her wings. But after seeing the fight between Lin Ling and Ye Xiao, she changed her mind from only taking Lin Ling under her wings to taking Lin Ling as her own disciple.
"This..."
Silence!
Everyone become extremely quite at this moment. Many participants started to look at Lin Ling with envy and jealousy. And how can they not feel jealous. After all it was about becoming a disciple of a supreme expert. A disciple of a Martial Emperor Realm martial artist.
Lin Ling herself was also very surprised after hearing that the sect master of the White Snow Sect actually asked her if she wanted to become her disciple or not.
She immediately kneeled down and kowtowed three times and said, "Disciple greets master.
"Hahaha, good disciple, stand up." The sect master of the White Snow Sect laughed charmingly and said then she waved her hand in the air and a leaf appeared in her hand. This leaf was actually white coloured, without any hint of green colour on it. But the most eye catching thing was that a huge amount of frosty air was coming out from it which was filled with dense spirit energy.
Actually the frosty air was not coming out from the white leaf but the leaf was of icy nature and the air that touched the leaf was immediately turning into frosty air.
From it, one could say that the white leaf in the hand of the sect leader of White Snow Sect was no ordinary leaf but a treasure.
The sect leader of the White Snow Sect gently tossed the leaf toward Lin Ling. Lin Ling hurriedly caught the white leaf. The moment Lin Ling came in contact with the white leaf, she felt an extremely comfortable feeling from it. And she can also feel that the white leaf has a kind of attraction for the ice element in her body.
She raised stared at the white leaf in her hand for a while but when she failed to recognise it, she raised her head to look at her master questioning gaze. The sect leader of the White Snow Sect smiled at her and said, "This is a gift from me to you."
"Master, can I ask you a question?" When Lin Ling saw that her master didn't tell her what this leaf was even after seeing her questioning gaze, she could not help but become agitated.
"Ask." The sect leader of the White Snow Sect smiled and gave her permission to Lin Ling to ask her question. She knew what Lin Ling wanted to ask and if she wanted she would have already told Lin Ling everything about the white leaf but she didn't choose to do so. She wanted Lin Ling to ask her and then she would answer her question.
"Master, what is this white leaf? I can feel that it is very beneficial for me or should I say it is very beneficial for the ice element inside my body." Lin Ling finally asked her question.
The sect leader of the White Snow Sect smiled and said, "This is not some white leaf. It is called Extreme Ice Sage Leaf."
"Extreme Ice Sage Leaf." Lin Ling muttered as she looked at the white leaf in her hand.
"Extreme Ice Sage Leaf? I have never heard of it before. What is the use of this so called Extreme Ice Sage leaf?" The sect leader of the Heaven Sword Sect muttered first and then asked.
Sect leader of the White Snow Sect looked at him with a smile on her face. She felt very satisfied after seeing his reaction.
"I have also never heard of anything about this Extreme Ice Sage Leaf. What exactly is this? You even gifted it to your new disciple." The sect leader of the Profound Sky Sect also asked and others also nodded their heads as they expressed that they also have never heard of it before.
"Hehe, how can I not gift the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf to Lin Ling. She is already my disciple and didn't you all saw how well her control is over the ice element. With the help of this Extreme Ice Sage Leaf, she can further improve the ice element in her body and at that time she would even have a chance to advance and become an existence surpassing the Martial Emperor Realm." The sect leader of the White Snow Sect said. From her tone alone, one could say that she was very satisfied with her new disciple Lin Ling.
"An existence surpassing the Martial Emperor Realm?" Lin Ling mumbled to herself in shock.
Not only her but the entire crowd was surprised after hearing this. No one, no one ever have cultivated to the realm surpassing the Martial Emperor Realm in the Azure Dragon Country.
What that realm is actually called, no one knew. Maybe, only the sect leaders of the five great sects and the King of the Azure Dragon Country knew about that realm.
In the Azure Dragon Country, the realm surpassing the Martial Emperor Realm is only a legend.
The sect leader of the White Snow Sect then turned toward Lin Ling and explained, "As I have said before, the leaf in your hand is called Extreme Ice Sage Leaf. The Extreme Ice Sage Leaf is like an elixir of life for anyone who has affinity with the ice element. Extreme Ice Sage Leaf grew on the Extreme Ice Sage Tree in an extremely cold place. Every single Extreme Ice Sage Tree can only give birth to three Extreme Ice Sage Leaf in its entire lifetime. Its is very valuable. So much so that you can not even buy it with 10,000 or even 100,000 low grade spirit stones."
"What?"
The crowd of people who know about the spirit stones, went into a huge uproar.
"We can not even buy it even with the price of 100,000 low grade spirit stones. I don't think that anyone have that much low grade spirit stones in the Azure Dragon Country." Xu Qing said in shock.
Everyone nodded their heads. Only Ye Xiao was an exception. He was not surprised after hearing the amount of the spirit stones, he was surprised hearing that the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf can not be bought even with this astronomical price.
He only thought about the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf and the information about it immediately appeared in his mind. Since the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf was a medicinal herb, how can the information about it will not be found in the memories of the Ancient Pill God.
But he was extremely surprised after he went through the information about the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf. He immediately understood that even the sect leader of the White Snow Sect or any other sect leaders did not know everything about the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf.
Then his gaze inadvertently fell on his master and he saw how surprised his master was looking. He saw that his master was staring fixedly at the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf with a pained expression. From the look of his face, one can tell that he was feeling heartache while seeing the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf in Lin Ling's hand. At this time, as if he was trying to stop himself from snatching the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf from Lin Ling.
Ye Xiao immediately understood that his master knows everything about the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf. He was again surprised by his master. He thought that his master's identity is not ordinary. According to the memory of the Ancient Pill God, no one in the small country like Azure Dragon Country should know about the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf but his master is clearly aware of it.
The sect leader of the White Snow Sect continued, "It was accidently obtained by my master twenty years ago when she went to the Ice Mountain in order to obtain some ice type medicinal herbs. She once saw the information about the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf in an ancient paper that was already half torn. Only because she once read about the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf on that torn paper that she recognised this herb. After she returned from the Ice Mountain, she gave it to me and told me everything about it."
"It all happened twenty years ago and I was waiting, waiting to find a suitable disciple who can use this herb. Now that I found you, Lin Ling, it is your as well as my White Snow Sect's fortune."
Only when she explained everything that Ye Xiao understood how she knew about the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf.
"So she found out about it from her master who by chance got her hands on a half torn ancient paper." Ye Xiao muttered.
