All eyes were on Chen Changan, eagerly awaiting Scarlet Province Lord’s Immortal Treasure to explode with Immortal Energy under his divine skill.
Chen Changan was in a panic beneath his poker face. “I can refine it, but why should I?”
Scarlet Province Lord was put on the spot, standing there with the Immortal Treasure. His high status made his requests an automatic yes in the Nine Province Continent. But Chen Changan’s unknown cultivation level drove weariness into his heart, making refusal only natural.
“Forgive my rudeness, Senior.” Scarlet Province Lord took out a Spiritual Herb.
It looked like a living Scarlet Phoenix, brimming with spirituality and even a hint of Immortal Phoenix aura.
The crowd went wild.
“The Undying Phoenix Immortal Herb?”
“They say the Undying Phoenix grows in a Phoenix Nest, an Immortal Beast. Having long since gone extinct on the Nine Province Continent, it’s incredible for Scarlet Province Lord to have it.
“I heard Undying Phoenix is almost akin to an Upper Realm Immortal Herb. You could be on your deathbed from sickness or wounds yet eating it will heal you back to normal in days. It’s like having an extra life!”
The chatter grew stronger as the gazes burned hotter with greed.
Items giving extra lives, Immortal Herbs included, were an extreme rarity on the Nine Province Continent.
Scarlet Province Lord’s heart bled offering it, but he felt it was worth it to exchange Undying Phoenix for Chen Changan’s help to refine the Immortal Treasure.
“Senior, I’m willing to offer Undying Phoenix as gratitude for your help in refining the Immortal Treasure.”
The crowd was envious.
[Scarlet Province Lord does things in style, gifting a life-saving Immortal Herb for refining an Immortal Treasure.] They all believed the Undying Phoenix was invaluable for Chen Changan to refuse.
His flat gaze painted a different picture, however, disregarding the Undying Phoenix.
Ling Bao’er, Foxy, and Xiao Hei shunned the Undying Phoenix. They were showing clear and actual disdain.
The people sensed the utter contempt and gapped.
[Isn’t Undying Phoenix almost an Immortal Herb? Even an Immortal Slayer cherished it, so why do they show so much contempt?]
Scarlet Province Lord asked, “Senior, what do you think?”
Xiao Hei, the big lug, took an actual Immortal Herb, finding actions spoke louder than words.
Everyone felt the raw Immortal Energy within suffusing the air.
[An Immortal Herb!]
Utter silence dominated.
The people were dumbstruck and froze with the wine and food in their mouths, too overwhelmed to swallow.
Every cultivator at the Continent Assembly had their fair share of toils and journeys. They were not greenhorns. The Immortal Energy spilling out of that Immortal Herb spoke one undying truth.
[That’s a fricking Immortal Herb right there!]
[Dear God! With that thing out in the open, it feels like what I’ve been so obsessed with was nothing but a plain Spiritual Herb!]
Xiao Hei ate it and sighed. “The Immortal Herbs shared by Young Master taste better than any fine dishes here.”
The cultivators’ minds snapped.
[That’s an Immortal Herb!]
[Senior must’ve given it to him.]
[And not just one?]
[Am I dreaming here?]
Ling Bao’er and Foxy took out an Immortal Herb each, nibbling on them.
They never ate them raw, with Chen Changan turning them into a soup. [Mmmm, so sweet and crispy!]
“Master, Xiao Hei is right. The taste is much better.”
“Yi ya yi ya.” Foxy nodded.
Xiao Hei took out two more after finishing the first one.
The cultivators gasped.
[What the hell?! That’s an Immortal Herb, an extreme rarity on the Nine Province Continent. How can you just eat three of them?]
Their mouths couldn’t convey the utter shock and loss their hearts drowned in.
An Immortal Herb contained incredible Immortal Energy, beyond precious. It also cured all wounds.
An Immortal Herb was an extra life!
It was beyond even that Undying Phoenix!
Scarlet Province Lord’s face fell.
