It was still early, and they got up and started working as soon as they woke up, without having eaten yet. Besides, this food was personally delivered by the Alliance Leader.
The steaming meat buns, made of fine, white dough, had a dot of orange-yellow caviar on each pleat.
Such exquisite food must have been made by her own hands; it must taste better than what the cooks at the Hundred Beasts Garden make, and it must be full of spiritual energy.
No offense to the cook, but the Alliance Leader's culinary skills are the best in the Lower Immortal Realm.
They held the steamed buns with relish, eating them carefully. The bun skin was soft and sweet, the meat filling was chewy, and the savory flavor had a hint of crab roe.
It's sooo delicious!
They praised the meat buns highly, sparing no words of praise.
Zhao Xi nodded slightly, quite pleased, but already used to it.
Seeing that the plate of steamed buns was gone, with one for each person, Luo Haiqing irritably told them to finish eating and get back to work, and returned to the workbench with resentment.
Zhao Xi wanted to follow, but crossed her arms and said, "Old man, if you go to the Middle Immortal Realm, you can infiltrate and become my inside man. Otherwise, I'll always be at the mercy of others."
"No way. There are so many demons outside, I'm perfectly comfortable here. Little Director, please don't kick this old man out! I worked so hard to build this place! Even if you fire me, I won't leave, I'm just staying here!"
If, after undergoing tribulation, one's body adapts to the spiritual energy level of the Middle Immortal Realm, one will be unable to return to the Lower Immortal Realm.
Luo Haiqing then suggested, "Why don't you send Saliya? That old dog has wanted to become a traveling merchant for a long time. I heard that the fire crystal mine he found for his son last time was also from the Immortal Realm."
That's certainly possible.
However, there are benefits to cultivating to the Nascent Soul stage.
For example, the magic weapon that Manager Qian suggested to Zhao Xi was a Nascent Soul Realm artifact, which could be used in the Lower Immortal Realm and could transmit signals over very long distances.
She had wanted the teleportation artifact for a long time.
The paper crane can transmit sound, but there's a delay. Like the paper crane Xiao Jia delivered this time, it might have been destroyed. If the Prime Minister hadn't taken out the fragment, Zhao Xixiang wouldn't even have known he had asked for help.
If the cultivators of the Five Spirits Hall go out on an urgent mission, using paper cranes with talismans will cause delays, and once the formation is set up, it cannot be moved.
Another advantage of forming an alliance is that it allows you to mobilize resources from different factions.
Zhao Xi wanted to look through the sect application forms and compare them with the sect information book compiled by Feng Xiaoxiantong to find the Extreme Shadow Stone.
A moment later, her face lit up with delight: "What a coincidence! The Cuiyun Sect has the Extreme Shadow Stone!"
She sold so many pastries to the Cuiyun Sect and met a few inner disciples, but never had any interaction with the sect leader.
Luo Haiqing glanced at it: "If the headmaster wants to exchange food for Extreme Shadow Stones, he can give up on that idea."
Why do you say that?
"Sect Leader Ye is worried that the seedlings will be harmed by the demons, so she has been searching for Void Stones and is eager to send them to the clouds. Ever since the Wuji Sect was occupied by the little black dragon, the Void Stones have been nowhere to be found, so she sent people to stake out the black market. She has already exchanged several pieces, and now she has finally found a Void Stone seed, but they just haven't agreed on the price yet."
Zhao Xi wanted to rest her chin on her hand.
It sounds like Sect Leader Ye is trying to protect the little seedlings. Doesn't that align with her feelings as the head of the Hundred Beasts Garden?
*
Medium-sized sects joined forces and exchanged intelligence to avoid being besieged by the demonic sect disciples.
Some of them even came to the Hundred Beasts Garden to guard the Water God, hoping that the old man would point out a clear path for everyone.
However, they discovered that the Water God was elusive and difficult to approach.
Moreover, he did not give any instructions on how to fight against the demons.
What worries them even more is the relationship between the Beast Garden and the Great Demon.
I heard that Hoshino grew up in the Beast Garden, and if nothing unexpected happens, he knows the headmaster, the master, and all the other disciples in the Beast Garden.
If the Water God is his mentor and intends to protect him, wouldn't the entire Lower Immortal Realm suffer a severe blow?
They waited for a while, observing the actions of the Beast Garden, and then saw them build a fortress and recruit rogue cultivators.
What kind of resistance is this?
This size doesn't even qualify as a medium-sized sect.
There are only a few natural places for cultivation, and even including the number of demonic beasts, the total number of cultivators is no more than one hundred. They don't even have meditation rooms divided according to the five elements. It's just a small, dilapidated sect with insufficient resources.
They felt that if it weren't for the great demon's consideration for their past relationship, this group of people would have been dead long ago.
Gradually, he realized that the zoo was no longer reliable, so he left.
Of course, knowing that there are delicious foods at the teahouse at the foot of the mountain, they would occasionally go back to the teahouse to buy pastries wholesale so that everyone could enjoy some nourishing food to improve their mood.
Small sects have been subjected to massacres and persecution, with some even disbanding their sects or leading their entire sects to seek refuge with larger sects.
The prices of spiritual plants, spiritual minerals, spiritual pills, and spiritual treasures have risen significantly, and are no longer affordable for a lone cultivator.
They gradually realized that this battle might not have even begun, but it had already impacted the entire Lower Immortal Realm. Perhaps one day in the future, for some reason, this war would erupt.
Ye Wudi is a locust tree spirit, but he always has the keenest sense of danger.
Since she became the head of the Cuiyun Sect, no cultivators have died in the sect, and all plants retain their buds within the sect. Even if they perish outside, she can use special plant methods to revive them.
This is at least much easier than training monks from scratch.
But many seedlings only have one leaf and one bud, and their roots are so weak that they seem like they might faint at any moment.
To demonic beasts, they are like newborn cubs, possessing no abilities whatsoever.
