After being reborn, the cannon fodder junior sister quickly left the sect.

Chapter 121 Enlightenment Tea Tree

The passageways leading into the caves weren't planted with fluorescent trees, yet the place was still as bright as day. This was because the ceilings of these passageways were inlaid with large white stones, which shimmered with a soft light like luminous pearls, illuminating the passageways and the caves not far away.

Chu Wenqing couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Wow, so bright! It's practically a cultivation-themed light bulb!"

Feng Xiyue and Song Qiao didn't understand what a "third wheel" was, but that didn't stop them from being drawn to the stone above their heads.

"Such shiny stones..."

"It's really bright! This stone looks kind of familiar..."

Feng Xiyue observed carefully, then her eyes suddenly lit up, "It's a Demon-Scorching Stone!"

Su Luo caught the unfamiliar name and raised an eyebrow. "Burning Demon Stones? Are these some kind of powerful stones?"

She had never heard of this stone before, but judging from Feng Xiyue's excitement, it must be a treasure.

Feng Xiyue nodded emphatically, "Yes, yes! This Demon-Scorching Stone is also a rare treasure! Ancient books record that the Demon-Scorching Stone will emit a dazzling light in the dark to dispel evil spirits. But most importantly, if you use fire to ignite the stone to attack a demon beast, it can even burn the demon beast!"

Chu Wenqing was overjoyed after hearing this, "Wow, that's awesome! Hahaha, all those Demon-Scorching Stones are perfect for us!"

"Who says it's not?"

Su Luo was also very happy. "Such precious spirit stones have been used to inlay the cave ceiling. It seems that the Hidden Yin Serpent was right. It does indeed have many treasures and spiritual plants. The cave inside is really something to look forward to."

"Then let's hurry up."

Without further ado, the four quickened their pace, passed through the long passage, arrived at the entrance of the cave, looked down, and then their eyes widened.

The cave inside was completely different from the one outside. It wasn't a typical flat cave, but a karst cave formed by a natural depression. Below, milky-white, jagged rocks carved the flat ground into several spaces. A faint spiritual energy permeated these rocks, and various spiritual plants were vaguely visible. Most astonishingly, the rocks were piled high with all sorts of treasures!

This... is simply a treasure trove!

Feng Xiyue was the first to jump down. Her target was a large patch of spiritual plants shimmering with a faint white light not far away. "It's Ice Heart Grass! My God, there's so much Ice Heart Grass!!"

"Wait! There's also Flaming Chili! We're rich!!"

"Ahhh, and there's also the Blazing Lotus!"

Feng Xiyue flitted among the various spiritual plants like a little bee, occasionally letting out bursts of delighted chirps.

The shouts were filled with such excitement, they were absolutely ecstatic!

Chu Wenqing and Song Qiao followed closely behind and jumped down as well.

More than the spiritual plants, they were curious about the treasures placed on the stone. When they picked them up one by one to examine them, exclamations of amazement rose and fell.

"So many pills... Wow! There are even two bottles of Spirit Cleansing Pills!"

"And...and there's Xuanbing Silk! That's a treasure that's long since disappeared!"

"Hey, there's even a Cloud Realm Monster Atlas! It details the habits and abilities of various monsters in the Cloud Realm, we'll definitely find it useful!"

"This...the fire in this bottle, could it be...the Frost Flame? That's a flame that can burn even in icy lands..."

"There are still quite a few storage bags here, filled with spirit stones! Hahaha, we're rich! My goodness, I never imagined that such incredible wealth would come our way one day! Hahaha!!"

Well, two more have gone mad.

Su Luo was the last to jump down. Compared to the other three, she was much calmer, but her movements were just as swift. Whether it was a spiritual plant or a treasure, as long as it caught her eye, she put it all into her storage bag!

"Fire Cloud Pepper? It'll be useful! Take it!"

"What kind of pill is this? I don't know, but I'll keep it!"

"These flowers are quite pretty, I'll take them!"

In this way, wherever the four of them went, it was as if locusts had swept through, leaving nothing but barren land. In the blink of an eye, almost everything in the cave had been taken.

Su Luo finally arrived at a tea tree that was taller than a person and looked up at it.

This tea tree stands tall and straight on the ground, its emerald green leaves crowded together, layer upon layer, the tea tips at the top of the leaves radiating vitality and exuding a very comforting aroma. Even just standing near the tea tree makes one feel extremely comfortable.

Su Luo had a premonition that drinking the tea leaves from this tree would definitely benefit her cultivation.

At this moment, Feng Xiyue came over. She was stunned when she saw the tea tree, and then her eyes flashed with an amazing light.

"It's actually the Enlightenment Tea Tree!"

"Enlightenment Tea Tree?" Su Luo murmured to herself, "That's an interesting name... Does it have any special meaning?"

Feng Xiyue carefully touched the leaves on the tea tree and explained softly, "The tea leaves from this tree are extremely rich in spiritual energy. Drinking them can not only help one comprehend the Dao, but also accelerate one's cultivation. If one has exceptional talent, one can even increase their cultivation several times faster. Therefore, this tree is named the Enlightenment Tea Tree! This tea tree is incredibly rare. I remember my master mentioning that the ancestor of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect once owned one, and he even sent two ounces of tea leaves to our ancestor so she could try them..."

At this point, Feng Xiyue paused, mainly because she couldn't say what she was going to say next.

The tea was so precious that the ancestor couldn't bear to drink it. Later, after a long time, fearing that the tea would spoil, the ancestor used snow from the top of Qingfeng Mountain, which he had treasured for hundreds of years, to brew the tea and entertain his friends.

Feng Xiyue still remembers the complex expression on her master's face when he mentioned this matter. There was anger at his own incompetence, and guilt towards the ancestor. Who told their Lingxiao Sect to be poor and unable to obtain the Enlightenment Tea Tree, only able to watch others show it off?

Feng Xiyue snapped out of her daze and saw Su Luo still tilting her head and listening intently. She smiled and quickly understood, then said everything she hadn't said before. Su Luo's eyes flickered after she listened.

It's so...

Feng Xiyue continued, "It's a pity that the tea tree of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect eventually withered and died, and disappeared from the Azure Continent after that. I never expected that there would be one growing in this secret realm, and that we would actually find it!"

At this point, Feng Xiyue stared intently at the tea leaves, her heart pounding.

With so much tea, she absolutely had to bring some back for the Ancestor, Master, and Senior Uncle to taste! To make up for Master's regret back then! Anyway, there are four of them, so even if they split it equally, they'd still get quite a bit!

Su Luo noticed the eagerness in Feng Xiyue's eyes and smiled, "This tea is so amazing, I'd love to try it. But, is it ready to be picked now?"

"Of course! Now is the perfect time!"

"Alright. Let's all pick them. Let's call Chu Wenqing and the others over, and then the four of us can split them equally."

Feng Xiyue smiled and nodded emphatically, "Okay!"

She then called over Chu Wenqing and Song Qiao, and the four of them began picking tea leaves without saying a word, finishing in less than half an hour.

Finally, the group decided not to let go of this lush tea tree, but how could they divide it among themselves?

Su Luo glanced at Feng Xiyue and the other two, then said that she only needed two tea tree branches.

It's clear that Feng Xiyue and the others need the tea tree more, while she only needs the branches. After leaving the secret realm, Su Luo plans to take the tea tree branches back to the island to try grafting and see if she can grow new tea seedlings.

Feng Xiyue knew that Su Luo was being lenient with them. Her lips moved slightly, but she couldn't help but whisper her thanks. Then she turned her head and directed Chu Wenqing and Song Qiao to carefully dig up the tea tree by the roots.

Feng Xiyue stared quietly at the tea tree, a captivating smile curving her lips.

The other three sects have always looked down on the Lingxiao Sect, always showing off in front of their patriarch and master. What kind of expressions will they make when they return this time, knowing that the Lingxiao Sect possesses a thousand-year-old Enlightenment Tea Tree?

I can't wait!
