But...
This Enlightenment Tea Tree is extremely rare.
In the entire Eastern Wilderness, only the Hundred Flowers Sect, one of the nine great immortal sects, has one.
While the Hundred Flowers Sect wouldn't keep the Enlightenment Tea all to themselves, it wasn't something a nobody like Gao Yan could get his hands on.
Because each time the Enlightenment Tea Tree produces only two to three catties of tea leaves, Hundred Flowers Valley will reserve one catty, and the rest will be sold to the other eight immortal sects through auction.
Besides Enlightenment Tea, there are also divine medicines such as Three Lives Fruit, Nascent Soul Fruit, and Reincarnation Grass that can directly boost one's cultivation level.
In particular, the Nascent Soul Fruit can allow those below the Nascent Soul stage to directly advance to the Nascent Soul stage within just ten years after consuming it.
Unfortunately, these miraculous medicines are only recorded in books, but their origins are not recorded in those books.
Besides using divine medicine to improve cultivation, comprehending laws and Dao traces can also rapidly improve cultivation.
However, this method carries risks.
Because the laws are things that can only be comprehended by those who have penetrated the void, and the traces of the Dao are even more so the marks left by powerful beings who have attained the Dao.
If one's cultivation level is insufficient, forcing oneself to comprehend the teachings will likely result in a backlash.
This backlash is severe; at best, it causes serious injury, and at worst, it leads to qi deviation and demonic possession.
There are hundreds of places in the Eastern Wilderness that bear traces of laws, most of which are controlled by immortal sects, while a small number are open to others for viewing and study.
There are also dozens of places where traces of the Dao are left.
There are only three places that are not controlled by sects.
One place is called Sword Qi Valley. It is said that this valley was cut out by a single sword strike from a Dao Integration expert. No grass grows in Sword Qi Valley, and it is filled with a terrifying sword aura. Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator enters the valley, it is difficult for them to walk out completely.
Over the years, many cultivators have gone to Sword Qi Valley in an attempt to comprehend its secrets, but none of them succeeded. Instead, many suffered backlash!
The second place is a battlefield of death.
It is said that several Dao Integration Realm experts fought a chaotic battle in this battlefield of death, which directly turned the surrounding area into a scorched wasteland. Not only was not a blade of grass grown, but anyone who stepped into this place would be torn into blood mist by the Dao traces within!
The last place is called the Cursed Sea.
This sea area is devoid of life and filled with a strong curse.
It is said that this is the burial place of a powerful Daoist master who was proficient in the art of curses. Because he died unjustly, he harbored resentment and cursed everything.
Anyone who sets foot in this sea will be tainted by the power of the curse.
However, if someone can comprehend the Dao of Curses, they can obtain the inheritance of that Dao-merging master.
Over the years, many have gone to the Cursed Sea, but no one has obtained the inheritance. However, those who have gone there all died soon afterward.
