Besides its usual function of assisting monks in meditation and entering a state of trance, this spiritual tea also nourishes the spirit and soul. Long-term consumption can strengthen a monk's spirit and soul, and alleviate some damage to the spirit and soul. However, its efficacy is still focused on health care and cannot replace medicine.

The tea was wrapped in a wooden box, and inside was a porcelain jar. Zhao Kangping felt it was quite heavy in his hand, but after probing with his spiritual sense, he determined that the tea weighed only about five taels. Even so, the market value of this tea jar was probably over 1,500 spirit stones. With six jars here, that meant over 9,000 spirit stones, nearly 10,000.

For a small family that just lost its mainstay, this is really a bit of a waste.

Zhao Kangping remembered that he had recently bought a tea garden, and some of the tea harvested from the garden could be supplied to the Chen family.

There were about a dozen sects and more than twenty small and medium-sized families as guests this time, and the gifts they brought were also varied.

Some gave magic weapons, some gave elixirs, and some gave rare treasures.

Zhao Kangping has been the hall master of the holy land for so many years, and his knowledge is quite broad.

Although many things here are rare, there are not many that can catch his eye.

"Bai Cao Valley Master Murong Fang presents a gift: a bottle of Golden Bee Jade Dew."

When the supporter announced the gift, many people in the audience stood up, their eyes agape.

Zhao Mengyao was a little confused, so she asked, "Auntie Yun, why are so many people standing up? Is this thing very precious?"

Nangong Ruyun explained: "Speaking of the Golden Bee Jade Dew, we have to mention a kind of spiritual bee raised in the Hundred Flowers Valley, called the Yellow Jade Bee, also known as the Golden Bee."

"There is a secret place in Baicao Valley called Baihua Forest. This Baihua Forest is rich in spiritual energy, and many exotic flowers and plants grow there."

"A long, long time ago, a certain valley master brought golden bees to the Hundred Flower Forest. After years of cultivation, the honey produced by these golden bees became a highly prized natural treasure."

"Not only can it be taken directly, it can also be combined with other ingredients to make a pill. However, there is a problem. If it is refined into a pill, the shelf life of the resulting pill is very short, basically only a few months."

"Later, Baicao Valley came up with a solution. They used the Hundred Flower Dew collected from the Hundred Flower Forest to refine it into Golden Bee Jade Dew."

"Don't underestimate the Hundred Flowers Dew; it's also a spiritual substance with extraordinary efficacy. The combination of the two isn't as simple as one plus one equals two; it creates an even more superior spiritual fluid."

"I heard that refining Golden Bee Jade Dew requires many steps, and the shelf life of the finished product is about five to ten years. Although it seems insignificant compared to many high-grade medicinal pills, it is a great improvement compared to the difficult-to-store nature of Golden Bee Honey."

"Golden Bee Jade Dew has many uses, such as repairing old injuries. It can also be used by cultivators with water, wood, and earth spiritual roots as a spiritual object for forming infants. It can also be used as..."

Having said that, she paused, thinking about whether this topic was suitable to talk about with a little girl.

But considering that Zhao Mengyao's knowledge reserve might be even higher than hers, she felt relieved and continued, "It is very good for female cultivators and is very suitable for female cultivators to use in their cultivation. In particular, it can allow female cultivators to persist longer in dual cultivation. Note that I am talking about female cultivators."

"Hmm?" A light bulb went off in Zhao Mengyao's head. It seemed like this thing was prepared for her.

Thinking of this, she couldn't control her expression. Her mouth opened wide, and she smiled a strange smile.

Nangong Ruyun did not use telepathy to speak, so Luo Xueqing also heard it.

Although she was still talking to Zheng Luqing on the surface, her eyes had already glanced at the bottle of Golden Bee Jade Dew in the hands of the master of Baicao Valley.

"Alas, it's a pity there is only one bottle." Luo Xueqing sighed.

Hearing this, Nangong Ruyun also lamented that these little girls must not know the value of the product. So she added, "You don't know, the Golden Bee Jade Dew is only produced three bottles a year in Baicao Valley, and it is usually only supplied to the valley owner, and rarely sent out."

"Also, this Golden Bee Jade Dew isn't meant to be taken in one gulp. Only one drop is needed at a time, so a bottle can last a long time."

Nangong Ruyun had actually drunk Golden Bee Jade Dew herself, and their Xianyun Sect also had some trade dealings with Baicao Valley. In the early years, during a large-scale spiritual medicine transaction, their Baicao Valley had included a bottle of Golden Bee Jade Dew.

However, she wasn't using it for dual cultivation. Instead, she had been seriously injured in the Xianyun Sect civil war. This Golden Bee Jade Dew was quite helpful in recovering from her injuries.

"It's my turn. It's my turn."

At this time, a little girl with pigtails flew down from the audience.

Zhao Kangping had a bad feeling when he saw her, and he immediately sent a voice message: "Wait, you're cutting in line, it's not your turn yet."

The visitor was Xun Qianran from the Medicine King Hall, the quirky little loli.

The little girl at this time looked about thirteen or fourteen years old. She held a snow-white porcelain bottle in her hand and handed it over like she was offering a treasure. "Can't I come up first? This is the elixir I made for my senior brother. It's called the Nine Treasures Yang-Rising Pill."

When Zhao Kangping heard the name, he reached out and tried to cover her mouth.

But the little girl had already predicted his move and evaded it in time, dodging his hand and saying, "Nine kinds of spiritual medicines are used here, all of which are used to nourish men's yang energy, and are referred to as strong... mmmmm!"

Before she could say the word "Yang", Zhao Kangping finally covered her mouth.

Is this something you can say in front of so many people?

What a disgrace! Giving a gift of a bottle of aphrodisiacs is fine, but you actually said it in front of so many people. If you don't feel ashamed, where can I put my face?

Many men present immediately looked at Zhao Kangping with either contempt or sympathy, and some even whispered to each other.

I want to curse, but this has already been misunderstood.

Zhao Kangping felt that he didn't need this thing. Even if he could deal with multiple girls at the same time, it was no problem. Why did he need this thing? It was a joke.

"Junior Sister Xun, just coming to participate in the ceremony is enough. Why bring any gifts?" Zhao Kangping covered the little Loli's mouth with the force in his hands, leaving red marks on her pink skin.

Xun Qianran opened his hand and said, "How can I not take the gift, Senior Brother? This is also a token of their thoughtfulness."

Zhao Kangping's face was stern, and he pushed her hand holding the porcelain bottle back. "It's enough that you are kind enough, Junior Sister. I appreciate it. But this thing is too valuable. I can't use it."

However, the little girl insisted on pushing the porcelain bottle back: "Brother, you don't have to be polite, just accept it."

If he accepted this, wouldn't that prove he wasn't good enough? How could a man say he wasn't good enough?

The two of them actually started pushing and shoving each other in front of so many people.

Mu Wanyi, who was standing by, couldn't stand it any longer. She immediately said, "Ahem, this is disgraceful. Xun Qianran, please don't go too far."

Faced with the Medicine King Palace Master's antics, the Purple Yang Saint Lord put on a very majestic look.

Her voice immediately stunned the little girl, and she finally let go.

"But I spent a lot of effort to refine this medicine." Xun Qianran looked like she was about to cry.

Zhao Kangping was speechless, and you were feeling wronged. Did you know that giving this thing to others is very embarrassing?

Hmm? Judging by her personality, this is probably just an act. I can't let her fool me.

"Then leave it to me." Mu Wanyi stretched out her jade hand, and the porcelain bottle floated into her hand.

"Senior Sister Saint Lord is the one who knows what's good." The little Loli immediately smiled. It turned out that her previous grievance was just pretend.

Then Xun Qianran said a few words of blessing and returned to the audience. This little farce caused by a little girl ended just like that.

However, Mu Wanyi's action made more people certain of their relationship.

This pair of senior and junior sisters have a very close relationship, and they even have a real relationship.

This day was destined to be a day of despair for many male cultivators, but they still had to force a smile, feeling so tired.

The gifts continued, and the next few became more and more precious.

When they arrived at Penglai Jiange, Sun Hezhou personally took the stage.

His eyes swept over Zhao Kangping and Mu Wanyi. He greeted them both separately, and finally his eyes stopped on Zhao Kangping.

"Brother Zhao, you are truly fortunate. I wish Chuanliu City, under your rule, great prosperity and may it surpass all previous city lords."

"I'll give you a set of robes."

As he spoke, a folded sea blue and blue-black robe appeared out of thin air in his hand.

"I know you're no longer a sword cultivator, but a magic cultivator. This robe is perfect for a magic cultivator. Not only is it impervious to water and fire, it also provides strong protection, keeping you safer when fighting. You can experience its other specific benefits yourself."

After it came into Zhao Kangping's hands, just looking at the precious light emanating from the robe, he could tell that it was not a simple item.

Many rare materials were used in this, and a huge amount of money must have been spent on its construction. Not only were there many runes on it, but it was also blessed with several formations. He could tell at a glance that in addition to the functions Sun Hezhou mentioned, there were many other powerful functions.

For example, it allows the magician to cast spells more smoothly, greatly reducing the spiritual power consumption, and the spirit gathering array on it can also speed up the wearer's spiritual power recovery.

Zhao Kangping felt that he had no friendship with Sun Hezhou. The only connection between them was probably that he had defeated Sun Hezhou in his early years.

However, the two had competed in swordsmanship that year, and that contest had humiliated the renowned Sun Hezhou. Logically, he should have hated himself.

But then I thought, so much time has passed, he should have let it go long ago.

Sun Hezhou is not a bad person by nature, which makes Zhao Kangping feel a little embarrassed.

Zhao Kangping wanted to be a good person and told him about the hat on his head.

"Thank you, Brother Sun. It's a rare visit to Chuanliu City. I will definitely treat you well later. I think your wife can't wait any longer, so you should go back and spend more time with her."

Zhao Kangping's turn of events was a bit abrupt. Normally, in this situation, he would have said more about how he planned to entertain the other party. However, the next sentence mentioned his wife, which was somewhat puzzling.

I hope Pavilion Master Sun can understand his hint.

In the audience, almost everyone's eyes were fixed on the stage.

However, in several seats in Penglai Jiange, a handsome young man was staring at a beautiful woman beside him with greedy eyes.

His dog paws even reached under the beautiful woman's skirt, doing some unknown movements.

The beautiful woman's face flushed, but she pretended to be calm, but she had already cursed in her heart.

"Little beast, don't you see where you are?"

"Don't you like it, Master?"

Chapter 349: Extremely Frosty Sky Formation, Beauty’s Great Favor

It was only on this day that Zhao Kangping realized that being the lord of a city was a very pleasant thing.

Just because he took over today, so many guests brought generous gifts.

If someone asks him to do something in the future, it will be extremely corrupt. I dare not even think about it.

Because this was Zhao Kangping's home court, even though his senior sister was present, she stood aside and gave him the center position on the stage.

However, many people were shocked that Saint Lord Zi Yang could be present in person today.

They were all guessing the purpose of the Holy Lord's visit.

Some knowledgeable people who had participated in this kind of city lord succession ceremony before immediately understood the situation.

"That's not right. I remember the last time I saw He Weiyuan become the city lord, the holy land only sent an elder. But why didn't I see any elder coming this time?" The person who spoke had already guessed a possibility, but this matter was too shocking, and even he was not sure.

Chuanliu City is a subsidiary city of Ziyang Holy Land, and it is not the only subsidiary city. It is just that Chuanliu City is too close to Ziyang Holy Land, and it is simply the gateway.

Even so, it didn't change the fact that Chuanliu City was merely a subordinate of the Ziyang Holy Land. The City Lord wasn't part of the Holy Land's system, and some of the Holy Land's elders were already highly regarded by the City Lord of Chuanliu City.

Therefore, every time a city lord succeeded to the throne, the holy land would only send an elder to grant the official appointment document and seal.

However, no one could answer his doubts at this time, and he could only watch to know whether it was what he thought.

As the tribute progressed, there were always waves of cheers from the audience.

"The Wanghe Sect went through such a turmoil not long ago, yet they were able to produce such a precious medicine as the Millennium Molten Fire Ganoderma."

"Silly, what are you looking at, a grown man? There are so many fairies, why don't you pay attention? Who do you think is more beautiful, the leader of the Miaoyin Sect or the Xuanyue Sect?"

"Why are you asking without worrying about offending people?"

"Be quiet, they probably won't hear you."

"In my opinion, the Miaoyin Sect's leader is hot, and the Xuanyue Sect's leader is cold. They each have their merits, but they are still not as good as the Purple Sun Saint's peerless elegance."

"Hey, look, Tianjian Sect's leader, Li Guiyuan, has actually come out of seclusion."

The people in the audience were chatting away, not all of them talking about the gifts presented by the guests.

Sometimes the topic turns to the guests themselves.

Li Guiyuan, the leader of the Tianjian Sect, was a handsome man with a straight figure, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and an imposing manner. However, his actual seniority was probably equivalent to that of Zhao Kangping's master, making him a senior.

Li Guiyuan suffered some injuries in his early years, which caused his realm to be stuck at the half-step refining realm.

The so-called half-step to the Void Refinement stage was beyond the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Transformation Stage, and was only one step away from the threshold of the Void Refinement Stage. However, this step might not be taken by him in his lifetime.

Most sword cultivators in the world are arrogant and proud, but Li Guiyuan has seen a lot, and the years have long since smoothed out his edges. His aura is calm and reserved, without the flamboyance of some younger sword cultivators.

An old senior like him should have been dismissive of such a city lord succession ceremony. Senior sister was able to invite him, so it must have cost her a lot.

Li Guiyuan looked at Zhao Kangping. It was a bit embarrassing for him, a senior, to come here to congratulate him. However, Mu Wanyi promised to give him a magical medicine that would help him recover from his injuries, so he came all the way here.

But he still maintained his status, bowed to Zhao Kangping and said, "Congratulations, young friend, on becoming the Lord of Chuanliu City. I came here in a hurry and didn't prepare anything. Here is a sword forged by the Master of the Sword Forging Peak of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and I'd like to take this opportunity to give it to you."

The Tianjian Sect is renowned for its sword cultivation, with the majority of its cultivators also practicing swords. The Tianjian Sect boasts nine peaks, with Zhujian Peak being renowned for its sword-forging prowess.

In terms of sword-making skills in the Eastern Region, the head of the Sword-Forging Peak of the Tianjian Sect can be ranked in the top three. If he doesn't drink while forging swords, he can compete for the first place.

Zhao Kangping looked at the sword that Li Guiyuan handed over. The sword was seven feet long and the blade was about three fingers wide. The blade was sharp and always red-hot, flashing with fiery red light. There were dark red fire cloud-like patterns on both sides of the sword.

Even an outsider who doesn't understand refining can see that this is a sword with fire attribute. The powerful fire spiritual power it emanates is not something that ordinary cultivators can touch casually.

Even if you just focus your spiritual consciousness on the sword, you can feel a burning heat that seems to be able to burn your soul.
