The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

"This is too fast!"

Ye Feng couldn't help but blurt out.

Ding Ling Ling!

The Enlightenment Tea Tree trembled lightly, its numerous leaves colliding and emitting a pleasant wind chime sound, as if boasting.

This tea tree had actually developed a bit of spiritual intelligence!

Ye Feng became even more astonished.

"Products from the System are always top-notch!"

Eventually, Ye Feng expressed such admiration.

Had the Spirit Seed of the Enlightenment Tea Tree not been a reward from the System and instead obtained from the Holy Spirit Sect, even if the Misty Sect had a Holy Grade Spirit Vein, it wouldn't have grown so quickly.

The Enlightenment Tea Tree could grow just by relying on a Super Large Spirit Vein.

And if it grew on a Holy Grade Spirit Vein, it indeed could speed up its growth by more than ten times, equivalent to maturing in a thousand years with extremely potent medicinal effects, even capable of enhancing the insight of a Supreme Saint.

But none were as exaggerated as this Enlightenment Tea Tree, which only took seven days to reach the growth stage.

Such speed was inconceivable.

"Sect Master!"

"We have ascended to sainthood!"

Liufeng and Mad Drunkard both approached Ye Feng from behind, bowing and saluting him.

"Congratulations to both of you on your Saint Ascensions."

Ye Feng turned slowly to nod at them.

At this moment, Mad Drunkard still looked as drunkenly disheveled as ever, lacking any semblance of a sage.

Liufeng, on the other hand, carried his Iron Sword.

From his appearance, there were subtle changes in Liufeng, mainly in his eyes which had grown countless times more piercing than before.

Additionally, every strand of his hair seemed like an unparalleled divine sword, capable of slaying strong enemies at will.

Altogether, he looked like an ultimate Holy Sword.

Ye Feng glanced at Liufeng's sword.

Having endured the Saint Ascension Tribulation, this sword had also successfully transformed into a Sacred Arm; a casual swing could extinguish the heavens and earth.

Its power was immensely formidable.

"Excellent!"

"Both of your strengths have reached a profoundly strong level; Mad Drunkard's prowess in breaking seals and deploying formations is formidable, while Liufeng's Sword Dao is truly exceptional."

"Even if I am not at Misty Sect, your presence is enough to tackle any formidable enemy."

Ye Feng praised.

Liufeng felt honored and responded with a bow:

"Our achievements today all depend on the Sect Master's endeavors."

Without Ye Feng storming the Suspended Mountain, retrieving the Thunder Pool Grand Hall, sacrificing the Thunder Palace, and converting it into the even mightier Thunder Saint Hall, others would have no chance to undergo tribulations.

"Sect Master, what is that?"

Mad Drunkard eyed the Enlightenment Tea Tree, licking his lips, "It looks splendid, I wonder if it can be used to brew wine."

Ding Ling Ling!

The Enlightenment Tea Tree immediately trembled chaotically, as if in anger.

I, the mighty Enlightenment Tea Tree, the pinnacle of tea brewing, and you want to use me for brewing wine instead of tea?

Outrageous!

The more the Enlightenment Tea Tree thought about it, the angrier it became, its body constantly trembling. Suddenly, with a "tear," a leaf fell off like a Flying Sword, slashing towards Mad Drunkard.

Snap!

The leaf struck Mad Drunkard's forehead; he didn't flinch, quickly touching his forehead and finding no injury.

After all, he was in the Saint Entry Realm, possessing a Sacred Body.

The leaves of the Enlightenment Tea Tree held a certain lethality, but they couldn't shake the physical body of a being in the Saint Realm.

"The leaves of the Enlightenment Tea Tree are naturally best suited for brewing tea. If you don't believe it, you can try it."

Ye Feng picked up the leaf, noting its ten-centimeter length and thick texture, feeling like jade to the touch.

After rinsing, Ye Feng placed the leaf in a teapot, poured Divine Pond Holy Water into it, and used Divine Fire to boil it.

Gorgeous, multicolored divine light slowly bloomed.

A fragrance, characteristic of "Dao," gradually permeated the area, giving a marvelous sense of being in an Immortal Realm.

After the tea was ready, Ye Feng poured three cups.

There's a rule in drinking tea.

While pouring, having the tea at about seventy percent of the cup's capacity is sufficient; overfilling is considered offensive to the guest.

"I'll taste it first."

Liufeng held up his teacup and took a gentle sip, immediately feeling a warm current that swept through his body, then turned into a clear stream rushing into his mind, making him feel incredibly lucid.

His insight seemed to have improved ever so slightly.

"This is delicious!"

Liufeng said as his hand holding the teacup trembled slightly.

Seeing his intense reaction, Mad Drunkard got interested too, picked up his teacup, and took a sip.

Half a minute later.

Mad Drunkard had already finished three cups of the hot tea, his face full of pleasure as he laughed and lauded, "Permanently enhancing insight, this tea is phenomenal!"

"Indeed, it's excellent tea!" Liufeng nodded repeatedly.

"It's just at the growth stage now; wait till it reaches maturity, then the enhancements will be even greater. If it could advance to an even higher level to the Peak Stage, a sip of this tea could enlighten one instantly."

Ye Feng explained calmly, his hands behind his back.

"Fantastic!" Liufeng and Mad Drunkard also dreamt of the day when the Enlightenment Tea Tree would reach the Peak Stage.

...

Half a day later.

An important news spread throughout Shenzhou.

Misty Sect was set to hold Shenzhou's first Enlightenment Tea Ceremony, celebrating the Saint Ascensions of Liufeng and Mad Drunkard.

"Enlightenment Tea Ceremony?"

"Misty Sect possesses the legendary Enlightenment Tea Tree?"

"That's unlikely! It must be that after Sect Master Ye was exiled, he acquired some Enlightenment Tea Leaves from the outside."

"I really want to attend the Enlightenment Tea Ceremony!"

"I want to go too, but alas, I haven't received an invitation."

"Who can receive an invitation?"

"All masters of Four Star Level forces or above."

"That means, only those in the Void Break Realm are qualified. I'm just at the Seventh Stage of Divine Origin Realm, so I have no chance to attend this first Enlightenment Tea Ceremony, sigh!"

News spread across the Shenzhou Continent.

Wanzong Holy Land.

Upon learning that Misty Sect was hosting the Enlightenment Tea Ceremony, Feng Chuan immediately relayed the message to Destiny Empress at Suspended Mountain.

"No good!"

"Could Ye Feng have stolen our Celestial Clan's Enlightenment Tea Tree?"

Destiny Empress and Rushu Tiansheng's expressions changed drastically.

The pair tore through the void and entered deep into a Divine Mountain, where they found a tea tree protected by heavy restrictions.

It was different from the one at Misty Sect.

It stood five meters tall, its leaves resembled pieces of jade, but lacked the seven-colored glow; its grade was incredibly close to the mature stage, yet it ultimately could not take that final step.

The reason was insufficient potential.

"It's still here, that's good!"

Destiny Empress and Rushu Tiansheng both breathed a sigh of relief.

This Enlightenment Tea Tree was a sapling Heavenly Celestial Holy God had obtained at a major convention in Zhongzhou ten thousand years ago.

However, the mother tree of this seedling was defective, with limited potential.

To this day, it had only reached its peak mature stage.

"Ye Feng must have obtained Enlightenment Tea Leaves from the Holy Spirit Sect, but those will eventually run out, incomparable to our tree which can continuously produce Enlightenment Tea Leaves," Destiny Empress said triumphantly.

"Since we're both here, how about we brew tea and discuss the Dao?" Rushu Tiansheng said with a grin.

"Sure!"

Destiny Empress eyed the tall and handsome Rushu Tiansheng, her eyes narrowing, "I heard that the effects of dual cultivation are better after drinking Enlightenment Tea."

"You want to try it?" Rushu Tiansheng's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the graceful Destiny Empress and slowly walked towards her.

...

Misty Sect.

Today was the day of Shenzhou's first Enlightenment Tea Ceremony.

All leaders of Star-Level Forces of Four Star or above, along with their entourages, gathered at the Misty Sect's Sect Main Plaza, amounting to millions of people.

Since Yin Rurong had died, Tianmiao Holy Land replaced their Holy Master, thus completely changing their attitude towards Misty Sect. As a result, representatives from all Nine Great Holy Lands attended the tea ceremony.

Additionally, experts from the Five Great Forbidden Zones and the Nine Great Mountain Ranges also attended, with nearly two thousand Quasi-Saints assembled, their formidable presence spanning across a million miles.

Nevertheless, no one dared to act recklessly.

Because Ye Feng had arrived.

His hands hung naturally by his side, his face handsome and smiling, surrounded by Hu Feifei, Liufeng, Mad Drunkard, Gong Qingqiu, and Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword, as he took his seat as Sect Master.

Looking around, Ye Feng spotted many familiar faces.

Ancestor Jinling, Ancestor Lingmiao, Liu Ming...

The leaders of County King City, Divine Wind Sword Sect, Myriad Islands Alliance, Beacon Fire City, Yunhua Sect, Liuyun Sect, and other forces, as well as the gifted disciples from these forces.

Though these forces were not Four Star or above, they were Misty Sect's earliest supporters.

Now, with Misty Sect's support, they had at least grown into Two-Star Rank forces.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Misty Sect."

"The main purpose of hosting Shenzhou's first Enlightenment Tea Ceremony is to celebrate the Saint Ascensions of our friends, Liufeng and Mad Drunkard."

"Let us now officially begin this tea ceremony."

Ye Feng didn't bother with more idle chatter.

He snapped his fingers and immediately, a gigantic teapot, five meters in diameter and four and a half meters tall, appeared in the sky.

Splash!

Holy Water from the Spirit Pool at Misty Peak's summit poured down, filling the teapot.

The next moment.

Ye Feng waved his hand, and hundreds of seven-colored lights descended from the sky — they were tea leaves engraved with Dao Patterns, falling into the teapot.

"Start the brewing!"

Ye Feng snapped his fingers again, and Dao Fire appeared, boiling the Holy Water in the teapot, releasing a refreshing tea fragrance and forming a series of seven-colored halos around the teapot, like rainbows.

Even just smelling the fragrance, everyone felt invigorated.

"Excellent tea!"

"As expected of Enlightenment Tea, just the smell makes me feel like I've wasted my past days."

"I wonder if I can taste it."

People from various forces couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

Suspended Mountain.

Destiny Empress and Rushu Tiansheng sat by the Lotus Pond, both changed into new clothes.

"Let's see what kind of tea leaves Misty Sect is using."

Curious, Destiny Empress took out an ancient mirror, which reflected the scene at Misty Sect's Sect Main Plaza, and saw the seven-colored light emanating from the teapot. She was so shocked that she spit out her tea.

"It's Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea!"

Even Rushu Tiansheng gasped in surprise.
