"What … What tea is this?"
Honorable Xuan Qi, who had just ascended to become a Sage, looked at the tea in his hand in shock. One cup of tea was equivalent to decades of cultivation.
F * ck me!
Not to mention tea, he couldn't even drink Spiritual Marrow.
"This is the Dao Enlightenment Tea. I still have some here. Honorable Teacher, you may enjoy it with the other Forefathers." Chu Kuangren took out a box of tea leaves.
Everyone looked at the tea leaves passionately.
"Kuangren, why don't you keep such a good treasure for yourself? It will be of greater value to you."
Honorable Xuan Qi said.
The other Forefathers regained their senses and nodded in agreement.
"I still have better ones. Honorable Teacher, you're welcome. This Dao Enlightenment Tea can help all of you enter the Great Sage Realm faster, so please accept it."
Honorable Xuan Qi accepted the tea after hearing Chu Kuangren's words.
Then, everyone asked about the Heavenly Punishment Seal.
Just like the others, they were also very worried. To them, Chu Kuangren was no longer just the Black Heaven Sect Leader. He had contributed too much to the Black Heaven Sect …
Everyone in the sect respected and loved him.
Even the Sages were the same.
"Don't worry, I have my ways to deal with the Heavenly Punishment Seal."
Chu Kuangren said. After he was done with the tea, he chatted with the Sages for a while before he stood up and left.
The Sages looked at each other as they watched him leave.
"I originally thought that the Sect Leader would be unable to recover from this setback, but the Sect Leader looks very relaxed and not dejected at all."
"What a strong Daoist core."
Honorable Xuan Qi was silent for a while before a determined look appeared in his eyes. "I believe that Kuangren will recover."
…
Chu Kuangren, who had returned to the Daoist Palace, suddenly smelled the aroma of food.
He followed the smell and realized that it was Gu Linglong and Lil Bing cooking. Chu Kuangren was stunned when he saw that.
"Linglong, what are you …"
"I'm cooking."
Gu Linglong blinked and said.
"You're cooking?"
"Yeah."
Now that Chu Kuangren had lost his spiritual power, some of his physiological needs were the same as an ordinary person. For example, he would feel hungry if he did not eat for a day. Gu Linglong had decided to cook because of that.
She had thought it through very clearly.
If Chu Kuangren could never recover, then she was willing to become a mortal for him and accompany him for the rest of his life.
Chu Kuangren seemed to have guessed her thoughts. "Thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? You and I are husband and wife. Do you really need to thank me?"
Gu Linglong retorted.
"Let me try your soup."
Chu Kuangren smiled, picked up the spoon beside him, and took a sip of the soup. Then, his face turned from red to white, then from white to green …
"Water, water …"
Chu Kuangren hurriedly looked for water to drink.
He looked at the bowl of soup on the table with a strange expression.
Are you sure this stuff is for humans to drink?
That kind of taste, salty and spicy, was simply a direct hit to the soul!
"Well, it's my first time learning how to cook. Maybe I'm not very good at it. Don't worry, I'll learn it well in the future."
Gu Linglong said with a firm expression.
Unfortunately, she really didn't seem to have any talent for cooking. For the next few days, the things she made were all unflattering.
On normal days, Chu Kuangren could still remain calm even when facing thousands of strong enemies. However, when he heard Gu Linglong calling him to eat, his face turned pale. Going to the dining table was like going to the execution ground.
After a few days, Chu Kuangren finally couldn't take it anymore.
He had to go into closed-door meditation!
In order not to enjoy Gu Linglong's dark cuisine for the rest of his life, in order to stop Gu Linglong from touching the kitchen, Chu Kuangren decided to go into closed-door meditation. No matter what, he had to break that damned Heavenly Punishment Seal!
Chu Kuangren had the Immortal Body. Even if he ran out of spiritual power, he wouldn't starve to death. After telling everyone about this and telling them not to worry about him going into closed-door meditation for too long, he went into closed-door meditation.
However, no one expected that.
His closed-door meditation lasted for three whole years.
Towering Heaven Palace.
It was the first snowfall of the year.
Gu Linglong, Lan Yu, and Lil Bing sat in the courtyard, admiring the snow.
Heavy snow swirled, and the world was covered in a silvery white color.
"The Triple Black Heaven Sect has been in seclusion for three years now." Lil Bing suddenly said with some emotion.
Beside her, Gu Linglong and Lan Yu nodded slightly.
"Indeed, it's been three years."
Three years was not a long time, but it was not that long either.
To most cultivators, three years was just a blink of an eye. However, without Chu Kuangren's Black Heaven Sect, everyone felt like something was missing. The past three years felt like an eternity.
"By the way, Lil Bing, how are Jun Yi and the others? They should be back by now, "Gu Linglong asked curiously.
Jun Yi was a Daoist of the Black Heaven Sect. Among the Daoists, she was the closest to Lil Bing and the others, and they kept in contact with each other.
Two years ago, Nangong Huang, Jun Yi, and the others achieved the goal that Chu Kuangren had set for them, which was to become an Honorable Supreme within a year. After that, the few Daoists left the Black Heaven Sect to explore the world.
In the past two years, they would occasionally return to the Black Heaven Sect.
Every time they returned, they would visit the Towering Heaven Palace.
"Fortunately, I heard that they've made quite a name for themselves in the outside world. A few days ago, Nangong Huang even defeated an empyrean walker."
"Oh, is that so?"
Lan Yu chuckled. "Looks like empyrean walkers are no match for him anymore. Looks like he's improved quite quickly."
"Heh, no matter how fast he improves, you still beat him up every time he comes back to challenge me." Gu Linglong chuckled beside her.
In the past three years, Lan Yu had improved tremendously.
She already possessed a Supreme Daoist Physique, and with the help of the Black Heaven Sect's resources, she had long ascended to become a Boundary Sage.
Not only her, but the other Daoists were also the same.
The only difference was in terms of combat strength.
"By the way, how are the sky-prides from the Nine Heavens doing?"
Gu Linglong asked.
In the past three years, a few sky-prides from the Nine Heavens had emerged. They were so powerful that they even surpassed the empyrean walkers.
"What else can they do? They're just jumping around everywhere."
Lil Bing said.
The sky-prides from the Nine Heavens came to the Firmament Star with only one purpose, and that was to search for Emperor's Opportunities of Fortune to increase their chances of becoming an Emperor.
In the past three years, the Opportunities of Fortune left behind by the Emperors of Old had appeared one after another, and many of the sky-prides had obtained them.
Sky-prides with Emperor's Opportunities of Fortune in hand had terrifying combat strength. Even the Sages of the older generation were no match for them.
The Firmament Star had long since become the world of sky-prides, especially those young sky-prides who had become Sages. Even Sage Rulers were wary of them.
"Oh, right, there's something worth mentioning. Murong Xuan managed to squeeze into the top 50 of the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard some time ago. He's ranked 49th, two places higher than Nangong Huang."
"Has there been any change in the first place of the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard?"
"No, it's still blank," Lil Bing said.
The Soaring Dragon Leaderboard was the biggest change in the past three years. This leaderboard was personally derived by the world's number one divine predictor, Tian Jizi. This leaderboard was now hanging above the Divine Predictor Pavilion on the Firmament Star.
However, the interesting thing was that the first place of the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard was still blank. It had been like this for the past three years.
According to Tian Jizi, he was waiting for someone.
He was waiting for someone who could truly become the world's number one!
