"Mother, it seems your immortal spiritual root has also improved. Congratulations, Mother!" Chu Wanwan quickly congratulated Chu Lan with a beaming smile.
Chu Lan smiled and patted Chu Wanwan's hand, saying, "Wanwan, this is all thanks to you. If you hadn't refined this miraculous Spirit Cleansing Pill, we wouldn't have had this opportunity."
At this moment, everyone around was also immersed in joy. Si Nantian laughed heartily, "Haha, our family's strength has really increased greatly now, and we will have more confidence in the Star Gate in the future."
Chu Wenze chimed in, "Yes, Uncle Si, look at how the new disciples of the Starry Sky Sect are still laughing at us behind our backs! Although we've been doing well these days, thanks to the care of the Starry Sky Sect, some cultivators still say we got in through connections, which is unfair to them! But where in this world is there absolute fairness? It's just that they don't have a good younger sister!"
As Chu Wenze spoke, he glanced disdainfully at the disciples watching outside the main hall.
Those disciples had come to spy on the Domain Lord, and when they saw Chu Wenze looking at them, the cultivators who usually loved to gossip behind people's backs couldn't help but lower their heads and look embarrassed.
“Third brother, you still have a childish temper. We were indeed not qualified to enter the Star Gate before, and we were able to enter the Star Gate only because of Wanwan. What they said is not wrong! You! Don’t be so calculative about everything!” Chu Wenyu opened his folding fan and waved it in a self-assured manner.
He also gave a flirtatious wink to the female cultivators watching outside the door.
The female immortal cultivators were immediately captivated by Chu Wenyu, screaming with delight. This was also why the Chu family was hated; despite lacking any real ability, each member was strikingly handsome, bewitching the female immortals of the immortal sects with mindless infatuation, nearly driving these chosen ones of heaven to despair…
Seeing this, Chu Wenze snorted disdainfully: "Second brother, all you do is show off. Don't you know what kind of occasion this is?"
Chu Wenyu laughed dismissively, "Third brother, you're just jealous of my charm."
Chu Wanwan shook her head helplessly: "My two brothers, please stop making trouble."
At this moment, the sect leader, Qingxuzi, stepped forward and said with a smile:
"Your playful bickering has certainly added a touch of liveliness to this solemn hall. But let's get down to business! Wanwan, what materials are needed to refine the Spirit Cleansing Pill? Could you refine a lot to improve the aptitude of the disciples in our sect?"
Although all disciples in the sect possess immortal spiritual roots, these roots are categorized into four grades: low, medium, high, and top-grade. Since Chu Wanwan's mother's immortal spiritual root could be upgraded to top-grade, is it possible that other disciples of the Starry Sky Sect, and even he and the elders, also have a chance to upgrade to top-grade immortal spiritual roots?
Qingxuzi was extremely excited about this...
Chu Wanwan shook her head and said, "It's not that I'm unwilling to refine more, but the medicinal materials for refining the Spirit Cleansing Pill are extremely precious, requiring thousands or even tens of thousands of years of spiritual herbs to be refined. This time I only refined eight pills, and I've already decided to give one to Lin Mo and one to my master. I don't have any extras, so I'm sorry!"
Although Qingxuzi and the elders of the sect were somewhat disappointed, they knew that the pill was indeed precious and that Chu Wanwan had no reason to give it to them.
Qingxuzi said with a hint of regret, "If that's the case, then we'll have to give up. But Wanwan, could you please reveal the pill formula? If we can gather all the ingredients, could you help us refine it?"
Chu Wanwan nodded solemnly: "Sect Leader, rest assured, as long as the pill formula is complete, Wanwan will do her best. However, pill refining is risky. I myself burned several batches and wasted a lot of precious spiritual herbs before I could refine these few pills. You should think carefully before asking me to refine them!"
Although Chu Wanwan didn't mind helping with the alchemy, she thought it best to be clear about the details since there were so many precious medicinal herbs involved.
Qingxuzi and the elders listened to Chu Wanwan's words with solemn expressions, yet also with a hint of determination.
"Wanwan, don't worry, since we've decided to try, we're mentally prepared. Even if we fail, we won't have any complaints," Qingxuzi said.
Chu Wanwan nodded slightly: "Very well, since the sect leader and elders have made this decision, Wanwan will definitely do her best to help them."
"The types of medicinal herbs required for the Cleansing Elixir are not many, but they are all precious herbs, including: Ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, thousand-year-old snow lotus, Tianshan ice marrow, purple cloud Ganoderma lucidum, and Nine Yang Flower."
Every medicinal herb must be carefully selected, and its age and quality must be of the highest standard to ensure the successful refining of the Cleansing Elixir.
The medicinal herbs listed by Chu Wanwan were all so rare and precious that they made people in the immortal sects turn pale at the mere mention of them.
Upon hearing this, Qingxuzi and the elders looked troubled, realizing that obtaining a Spirit Cleansing Pill would indeed be very difficult for them!
Seeing this, Chu Wanwan didn't say anything more and turned to leave the main hall.
She had used up all the spiritual herbs in her space; otherwise, giving them one or two wouldn't have been a problem.
The Chu family members naturally followed suit and left.
Chu Wanwan then found Lin Mo and gave him a Spirit Cleansing Pill. The reason Chu Wanwan gave him the pill was because the Lin family had been working for her for ten years, mining spirit stones without ever asking her for a single one. If she hadn't voluntarily relinquished future spirit stone mining rights and profits to the Lin family and the Starry Sky Sect, they probably wouldn't still be able to withstand the pressure and work for her now.
This loyalty is invaluable. Her gift of the Cleansing Elixir to Lin Mo was not only an affirmation of him personally, but also a way of giving back to the Lin family for their years of silent support and dedication.
Lin Mo took the Cleansing Pill, his eyes reddening.
"Wanwan, do you know what this Spirit Cleansing Pill means to me?"
“I know, my brother, sister-in-law, and father-in-law all have Heavenly Spiritual Roots! So I understand how you feel. Brother Lin Mo, there’s no need for any other mushy words. When I first came to the Immortal Realm, you took great care of me. Over the past ten years, your Lin family has helped me mine spirit mines for free, accumulating a lot of wealth for me. Now that I have good things in my hands, I naturally won’t forget Brother Lin Mo!”
Chu Wanwan said with a smile.
Si Mingye stood beside Chu Wanwan, and when he heard her calling him "Brother Lin Mo" repeatedly, he immediately frowned.
"Free mining of spirit ore was a promise made by the Lin family to repay the debt of saving my life. When you first arrived, I didn't do anything for you. You were the one who saved me all along. I feel ashamed for you to say that!"
Lin Mo said shyly.
"Oh, stop being so mushy! If you don't want it, I'll take it back to the sect leader! You have no idea how much they crave this pill!"
As Chu Wanwan spoke, she pretended to snatch the divine pill from Lin Mo's hand. Lin Mo was startled and swallowed the divine pill with lightning speed.
"No way! Once it's given to me, it's mine. You, a dignified lord of the Immortal Realm, how can you ask for something back after giving it away?"
Seeing Lin Mo's reaction, Chu Wanwan couldn't help but laugh: "Alright, you can refine it slowly. Let's go back."
As Chu Wanwan spoke, she took Si Mingye's hand and left Lin Mo's residence.
Lin Mo quickly sat down cross-legged and began refining the divine pill...
