At this moment, Lin Qingyun's voice came from outside the door.
"Is Master Li at home?"
Li Nianfan replied, "Come in directly."
Creak.
Lin Qingyun pushed the door open.
When she saw Luo Huang and Luo Shiyu, her eyebrows subtly furrowed.
She was indeed a step too late.
Then, she saw the ground covered with spirit medicines, and her beautiful eyes revealed a look of shock.
It seemed that the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty had really gone all out this time. Fortunately, she had the foresight to bring the most precious spirit medicines from the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion.
"Master Li, these are a small token of our Lingyun Immortal Pavilion's appreciation."
With a casual wave of her hand, sixteen spirit medicines immediately appeared before her.
These spirit medicines had a very unique appearance and emitted a seven-colored halo, illuminating the entire inner courtyard with a divine aura.
"This, this is... Supreme-grade spirit medicine!"
Da Ji was stunned, and Luo Huang and Luo Shiyu also stared in disbelief.
Seeing everyone's reactions, a smile appeared at the corner of Lin Qingyun's mouth. Hmph, since the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty went for quantity, she would go for quality!
With the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion's resources, these sixteen Supreme-grade spirit medicines were something few forces could match.
In the cultivation world, spirit medicines are classified into four grades:初级 (初级), 中级 (中级), 高级 (高级), and Supreme-grade!
Above Supreme-grade are the innate spirit medicines, and above that are the innate spirit roots!
Innate spirit medicines are probably only seen in the ascended immortal realm, while innate spirit roots are treasures even immortals revere, existing only in legends.
Li Nianfan was also slightly taken aback. From the appearance of these spirit medicines and the reactions of those around him, it was clear that these spirit medicines were extraordinary. Lin Qingyun's generosity exceeded his expectations.
"I appreciate it. If there's anything I can help with in the future, I won't refuse." He did not decline but sighed inwardly.
Sigh, the favor I owe this time is quite significant.
But he had no way to refuse, as these spirit medicines would greatly help Da Ji's injuries.
From their interactions so far, Lin Qingyun seemed to be a cultured person and a food lover. If she wanted calligraphy or paintings, or to come for a meal, he would agree.
To secure a beautiful daughter-in-law in the future, he was truly putting in a lot of effort.
Who could understand the pain of a single man?
Seeing Li Nianfan accept the gift, Lin Qingyun's heart was instantly filled with joy.
She had deliberately added a bit of skill in her words, presenting the gift in the name of the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion rather than herself, to test Master Li's attitude towards the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion.
Not only did Master Li accept the gift, but he also added a meaningful statement, implying that the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion now had a powerful backer.
Thinking of this, Lin Qingyun's face turned flushed with excitement, feeling as if she was floating in the air, overwhelmed with happiness.
Da Ji bit her lip, gazing at Li Nianfan with tears of gratitude in her eyes.
Master Li, a transcendent being, had originally secluded himself from the world, but for her, he was willing to owe a great favor to the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion. The favor she owed was growing larger.
Luo Huang and Luo Shiyu looked at Lin Qingyun with envy, realizing that the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion had secured a powerful ally in Master Li.
Unfortunately, the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty's resources were not as strong as the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion's, or how could Lin Qingyun have taken the lead?
"Master Li, are you at home?" A voice came from outside the door again.
Bai Wuchen and Zhao Shanhe had arrived.
As soon as they entered, they were stunned by the courtyard full of spirit medicines, their mouths dry and hearts bitter.
They had guessed this would happen. Why did they even come to compete, only to embarrass themselves?
Their sect's spirit medicines were far inferior to those of the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty and the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion. In this situation, how could they even consider presenting their own spirit medicines?
Bai Wuchen and Zhao Shanhe exchanged a bitter smile and put away the storage rings they had prepared.
"Headmaster Bai, did you also bring spirit medicines?" Luo Huang asked with a smile.
Bai Wuchen replied helplessly, "Luo Huang, don't tease us. With our Sword Sect's limited resources, what we have, you have, and what we don't have, you do. We won't embarrass ourselves by showing them."
Seeing Bai Wuchen's reaction, Luo Huang felt a bit more balanced. At least he had left a good impression on the transcendent being, and that was a significant gain.
After a long pause, Zhao Shanhe said, "Master Li, I don't have spirit medicines, but I brought a seed. This seed was obtained by my ancestor in an ancient secret realm, but unfortunately, no one knows what kind of seed it is."
"From your ancestor's era?" Bai Wuchen was surprised and asked, "Old Zhao, don't exaggerate. Your ancestor has been around for at least a thousand years. What kind of seed can survive that long?"
He was reminding Zhao Shanhe, fearing that he might impulsively deceive Li Nianfan, which would be disastrous.
Can a transcendent being be deceived?
"I know the gravity of the situation; I wouldn't lie," Zhao Shanhe said, taking out a small wooden box. "I can sense that this seed still has life, and... when I was young and mischievous, I once stole this seed and found that it was impervious to blades and fire! I even suspect it might not be a seed at all."
Everyone's gaze towards Zhao Shanhe became peculiar.
They never expected this old man to have been such a rascal in his youth, truly mischievous.
However, everyone's curiosity was piqued. What kind of seed was so special?
Li Nianfan's interest was also piqued, and he took the wooden box and opened it.
Inside the wooden box lay a perfectly round seed.
It was about the size of a regular seed, green in color, without any luster or unusual phenomena, looking very ordinary.
"Are you sure this seed is still alive?" Luo Huang examined it for a long time and looked at Zhao Shanhe skeptically.
Zhao Shanhe replied awkwardly, "I guess... probably, maybe, it's still alive."
Li Nianfan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he picked up the seed, bringing it to his nose to sniff.
His years of farming experience told him that this was indeed a seed, and it wasn't completely dead, but in a half-dead state.
What does half-dead mean? It means it hasn't completely withered, but it can't sprout and will never grow anything.
"I am a self-proclaimed divine farmer, though I don't know if this title is genuine, but my basic judgment should be correct," Li Nianfan thought to himself.
He looked at Zhao Shanhe and asked, "Are you sure this seed is fireproof?"
Zhao Shanhe nodded.
"Then I'll have to test it."
Li Nianfan picked up the Dragon Fire Pearl, "Lighter, burn it!"
Whoosh!
A small flame shot out from the Dragon Fire Pearl, but the seed remained unscathed.
"Hmm? Interesting."
Li Nianfan was extremely surprised. No matter what kind of seed it was, being afraid of fire was a natural trait, but this seed was completely unaffected. What was the reason?
