Chapter 873 - 563: Brewing the Ultimate Enlightenment Tea! (4K)_2
People from the various Divine Palaces were engaging in heated discussions.
The Great Experts of the Eight Divine Palaces, however, remained calm and composed.
In the eyes of the existences like the Three Old Lords of the Three Pure Ones Palace, the Four Heavenly Kings of the Wushen Palace, the Five True Sovereigns of Wuming Palace, and the Twelve Sword Maidens of Goddess Palace, the so-called Ancient Han Family was merely trivial.
The Heavenly Emperor, seated upon the treasured throne of Lingxiao Hall, spoke, “The Ancient Han Family, for daring to collude with the Demon Sects, has committed a heinous crime. Yang Qing, lead one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to the Lower Realm and exterminate the Ancient Han Family.”
Amid the assembly, a tall and valiant middle-aged man, clad in dragon-patterned golden armor with a crimson cape and wielding a Three-Edged Blade, stepped forward, his tone nearly devoid of any emotion, “Yang Qing obeys the command.”
Yuexi, the talented disciple from Mysterious Lady Palace and a follower of Qiongxiao Sword Maiden, was secretly shocked. She had not expected the Heavenly Emperor to send Yang Qing, who guarded the Southern Heavenly Gate, leading one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to descend to the Lower Realm.
Yang Qing, a Great Expert from one of the Eight Divine Palaces, Jade Void Palace, had slain countless mighty beings during the two Ancient Wars. Now responsible for defending the Southern Heavenly Gate of the Heavenly Court, even the Demon Lords of the Demon Realm dared not trespass rashly.
With Yang Qing leading one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to the Lower Realm, the Ancient Han Family was bound for doom.
“The Mysterious Lady Palace shall assemble some Holy Land experts to join Yang Qing in the attack on the Ancient Han Family, minimize losses, preserve strength, and prepare for the impending tribulation.”
Upon the fall of the Heavenly Emperor’s voice, Qiongxiao Sword Maiden nodded.
The one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals led by Yang Qing were the foundation of the Heavenly Court, and while they were certainly capable of annihilating the Ancient Han Family, it was after all an ancient lineage that had been passed down since Ancient Times, and might possess some unknown foundations, so losses among the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals were inevitable.
Having a contingent of Holy Land experts from Mysterious Lady Palace join the one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals in besieging the Ancient Han Family would reduce the losses for the Heavenly Court.
“My disciple, would you wish to join your master in descending to the Lower Realm?”
With the first and second ranked Sword Maidens of the Mysterious Lady Palace in seclusion, Qiongxiao Sword Maiden decided to take action herself.
Yuexi nodded her head, “Disciple is willing to follow Master to the Lower Realm for training.”
Yuexi realized that life in the Heavenly Court was too comfortable. The geniuses and Demon Chiefs of the Lower Realm acted more ferociously, since they frequently faced the risk of falling.
Without regularly venturing to the Lower Realm for training, it would be hard to catch up with Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng stood before this era’s geniuses like a towering mountain, to be looked up to.
At the Heavenly Gate of the Immortal Realm’s south, Yang Qing stood at the end of the Southern Heavenly Gate, overlooking the vast expanse of earth below.
Although Yang Qing was merely nine feet tall, far from the colossal true form of the Demon Race, his presence was like that of a Desolate Ancient beast, and his piercing eyes seemed to penetrate the thick clouds, able to see all beings in the Lower Realm.
Behind him, one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals primed for battle.
Among these one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, the weakest were Loose Immortals, and there were even those at the Divine King Realm.
“Our target, the Ancient Han Family.”
Yang Qing descended to the Lower Realm with one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, a magnificent sight as one hundred thousand golden streaks flew towards the Ancient Han Family.
Meanwhile, Lu Changsheng was rewarding his disciples with Enlightenment Tea leaves.
[Ding! By gifting your disciple Yun Qianyue a Sixteenth-Rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Third-Rank Enlightenment Tea,” you’ve earned a hundred billion-fold return reward: a Twenty-First-Rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “First-Rank Enlightenment Tea.”]
At last, a First-Rank Enlightenment Tea has appeared!
Lu Changsheng felt a surge of excitement within.
He had continuously bestowed gifts upon his disciples for a month, handing down several hundred Third-Rank Enlightenment Tea leaves, and at last, the system returned the first piece of First-Rank Enlightenment Tea.
With the first occurrence, countless more are bound to follow.
A supreme piece of Enlightenment Tea was sufficient to help Lu Changsheng make the final breakthrough.
The Holy Land had allocated two supreme pieces of Enlightenment Tea to Lu Changsheng; he had used one to break through to the Ninth-Rank Divine King Realm, leaving one left.
Now that he had obtained another, making two in total.
If the ancestors of the Holy Land knew that Lu Changsheng could use the system to produce such precious Enlightenment Tea at a low cost, which were the most important treasures of the Mount Taihua Sacred Land, they would be utterly astonished.
After all, these were Twenty-First-Rank Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
The disciples of Lu Changsheng could normally get some Enlightenment Tea from the Sacred Land.
But this time Lu Changsheng has given Enlightenment Tea to them collectively, providing each disciple with several hundred leaves, enough to indulge in brewing the precious tea daily.
“Enlightenment Tea, a rare item indeed, but its effect on me is limited.”
Yun Qianyue also received some Enlightenment Tea leaves.
However, Yun Qianyue, a former Chief Senior Disciple of the Ancient Heavenly Sect and a Great Expert in the Longevity Immortal Realm from her past life, has a profound comprehension of the Dao.
The common Enlightenment Tea leaves had very limited effects on Yun Qianyue.
Only the highest-grade Enlightenment Tea leaves would have some effect on her.
Nonetheless, Yun Qianyue was not shy about using them, treating it as a pot of fine tea to enjoy a cup in her leisure time…
Due to retaining her past life’s memories, Yun Qianyue’s Realm has quickly ascended, reaching the Immortal Emperor Realm, and she is hopeful to become the first disciple of Lu Changsheng to enter the Divine King Realm.
But it’s hard to say.
Lin Qingzhi, the Chief Senior Disciple under Lu Changsheng, has a Heart of the Innocent and may have sudden breakthroughs in his comprehension, leading to a rapid increase in his Realm.
The fourth disciple, Shen Xiaoyao, is a Son of Fortune and might have unexpected encounters any moment.
The fifth disciple, Ji Xuan, is titled the Demon Race’s Goddess, has access to the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan’s Cultivation Resources, and the sixth disciple, Chen Yao, is given great importance in the Mysterious Lady Palace, never lacking in Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures… The thirteenth disciple, Dantai Meng, the daughter of the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable, also has the potential to be the first disciple to enter the Divine King Realm.
Although Dantai Meng was forcefully taken in by Lu Changsheng as a disciple to escape the Demon Realm, she is still recognized as one of his Direct Disciples, and Lu Changsheng, as her mentor, gets rewards for her realm breakthroughs.
Moreover, with Dantai Meng having the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable as her mentor, Lu Changsheng need not worry much and can still earn rewards.
On Yuntai Peak, Su Xiaoqi, the tenth disciple of Lu Changsheng, has officially broken through to the seventh level of the Immortal Emperor Realm using Enlightenment Tea.
Su Xiaoqi receives guidance from not only Lu Changsheng but also her elder sister, the Family Head of the Ancient Su Family, Su Yun.
With the Body of Nothingness, Su Xiaoqi primarily cultivates the Ancient Su Clan’s techniques, and her Cultivation Level advances by leaps and bounds.
Seeing her little sister’s breakthrough, Su Yun expressed her joy, “Xiaoqi, your master is truly good to you. Mount Taihua Sacred Land’s precious Enlightenment Tea, after all, has been given to you in such abundance. It seems that in less than a million years, you will be able to step into the Divine King Realm.”
Su Xiaoqi nodded, “Big sister, once I become a Divine King, we can join forces to rescue our ancestors.”
Su Yun sighed, “The ancestors are trapped in the Deep Void, which is extremely dangerous. I once gathered a dozen Divine Kings who were indebted to our Ancient Su Family to enter the Deep Void and rescue our ancestors, but it was in vain, and even led to the fall of several Divine King experts. Even if you reach the Divine King Realm, we still won’t be able to rescue the ancestors.”
“What should we do then?”
“Your master not only has excellent innate talent but is also courageous and resourceful. Perhaps he might be able to rescue our ancestors. Of course, I’m not just talking about now. He doesn’t have that capability yet. If he can rescue the elders of our Ancient Su Family, we will owe him a huge debt of gratitude.”
Recently, Su Yun has witnessed Lu Changsheng’s capabilities and was astounded, believing that he has the potential to rescue the ancestors of the Ancient Su Family.
If Lu Changsheng manages to save the ancestors of the Su Clan, it would be appropriate for the Ancient Su Family to enshrine a statue of him in their ancestral temple.
At this moment, an Elder from Mount Taihua Sacred Land arrived at Yuntai Peak to inform Lu Changsheng of the Sacred Land’s decision, “Holy Son, the Mysterious Lady Palace has requested our Mount Taihua Sacred Land to dispatch a force to besiege the Ancient Han Family. The Saint Lord has heard of your past conflict with Han Jie and has appointed you to lead the team.”
“Master truly honors me.”
Since it is Lin Xuantong’s arrangement, Lu Changsheng might as well make the trip.
When Lu Changsheng was weak, he did not act against Han Jie due to the power of the Ancient Han Family; now that Han Jie seeks death by colluding with the Evil Extreme Sect, he is undoubtedly on a path of self-destruction.
Since the opponent is seeking death, Lu Changsheng will send him on his way.
Lu Changsheng, carrying his Longsword, made his way to the main hall of Mount Taihua to gather.
In the main hall, a few thousand disciples from the Mysterious Lady Palace had arrived.
Among these disciples, Lu Changsheng saw Yuexi, the number one talent of the Mysterious Lady Palace.
Yuexi, with her pure and exceptional beauty, stood out even among the stunning disciples of the Mysterious Lady Palace.
Upon seeing Lu Changsheng’s arrival, Yuexi actually took the initiative to nod at him.
