"Fellow Daoist Changsheng, this sword technique is quite remarkable. With the same cultivation level, almost no one can block it. To be able to create such a sword technique at the Golden Core stage, you will likely walk your own path in the future," Li Shang praised without reservation, removing the barrier of his spell.
Although both sides had not exerted their full strength in the exchange just now, he was very clear that if he were at the Golden Core stage, he would definitely not be able to defeat Chen Changsheng!
What shocked him the most was Chen Changsheng's aptitude. He had only advanced to a lower-grade aptitude with the help of Luo Liuxi, yet he had achieved almost invincible achievements at the same level.
He doesn't go out to train, but spends his days leisurely in the city, delving into Dao techniques and auxiliary skills.
Everything about him suggests an ordinary cultivator who has given up hope on the path of immortality and chosen to retire in Taiping City. There are countless cultivators like him.
This was what puzzled him the most.
However, Li Shang did not pry into the matter. Everyone has their own secrets, and besides, they are both elders of the ancient Immortal Dao lineage. Digging into each other's secrets is definitely a major taboo.
The other first-generation elders must be curious as well, but everyone tacitly kept their mouths shut.
"Given time, Fellow Daoist Changsheng may truly live up to his name. To be remembered by people forever would not be in vain," Qiu Xuan said with emotion, a hint of longing and envy in his smile.
Without looking closely, Qiu Xuan's face had gained a few more wrinkles at some point, and his hair had more gray than before.
Time was slowly eroding his lifespan. Even cultivators could not escape time.
"Hahahaha! If Changsheng truly achieves immortality, that would mean attaining the Dao and becoming an immortal. I wouldn't even dare to imagine it," Zhuang Zongzheng laughed loudly.
Faced with the flattery and praise from the others, Chen Changsheng responded with smiles and humility.
After chatting for more than an hour, Qiu Xuan suddenly said, "Look at the group chat, they actually dug up the legendary Four Symbols Tea in the secret realm!"
Chen Changsheng and the others immediately opened the cultivation group chat, where the atmosphere was lively.
Qi Xianjue: "Four Symbols Tea leaves have been discovered in the center of the archipelago in the secret realm. Drinking this tea can enhance true energy, blood, and divine sense. It has a refreshing effect, and the aroma is unforgettable. Most importantly, it contains an opportunity for enlightenment."
Nie Qing: "Four Symbols Tea is priced at 10,000 points per gram, and 5,000 points per gram for members of the ancient Immortal Dao lineage. Is anyone interested in buying it?"
Zhuang Zongzheng: "So expensive? Never mind."
Ma Danqing: "The Four Symbols Tea is mainly famous for its aroma. In reality, it has little effect on improving cultivation. As for the opportunity for enlightenment... the less said, the better."
If it were truly a trace of enlightenment, it would indeed cause a frenzy among the group members.
However, the trace of opportunity in the Four Symbols Tea is quite渺茫, and some people may not feel it even after drinking it for a lifetime.
The reason why the Four Symbols Tea is famous is mainly because of its aroma. When brewed, it presents four illusory images, making the scene beautiful and the aroma drifting for hundreds of miles.
This stuff is simply not something ordinary cultivators can enjoy. Even when entertaining distinguished guests, they would not be willing to use this tea. Powerful figures have to secretly savor it.
Liu Yuemei: "Oh ~ why do we have to pay 10,000 points per gram to buy it? Can it be cheaper ~"
Yuan Rao: "The slutty demoness is not qualified to buy it."
Bai Xiaoping: "Even at 5,000 points per gram, it still feels too expensive. Is it really worth buying it back at this price? Just for that ethereal trace of enlightenment."
Duanmu Jiu: "It's definitely worth it for people who like to drink tea, but the premise is that they can afford it, and don't expect to gain enlightenment, otherwise, you'll likely be disappointed."
Chen Changsheng: "How much is there in total? I want it all!"
As soon as he said this, the scrolling messages in the group paused for a moment.
Then, an endless stream of messages popped up.
Cao Heng: "Damn, so extravagant?"
Lu Qiwu: "? ? ? ?"
Zhang San: "?"
Yang Peng: "Rich brother, take me with you, send me some tea leaves!"
Yan Xinru: "Ah, Elder Chen, don't be impulsive. The real value of this tea lies in its aroma, not as a treasure that helps with cultivation."
While everyone was still discussing the value of the tea, Chen Changsheng suddenly said he would buy it all, giving everyone the illusion that they were poor.
That's 10,000 points per gram, how much tea can one gram brew? It's just for one drink.
Even at half price for members of the ancient Immortal Dao lineage, it's still 5,000 points per gram.
There are countless treasures that 5,000 points can exchange for.
Although everyone has a lot of sign-in points, they wouldn't spend them on tea just to taste that little bit of aroma?
Li Shang and the others sitting next to Chen Changsheng also looked at Chen Changsheng with a bewildered expression, suspecting that he had misread the price.
"Changsheng, look carefully, this tea is 5,000 points per gram, it's too extravagant, isn't it?" Zhuang Zongzheng said blankly.
Chen Changsheng said in a relaxed tone: "I know, but I haven't had it before, so I'm buying it to try it."
Qi Xianjue, who was exploring the archipelago in the secret realm, sent a private message: "You want to buy it all? There's a whole catty of Four Symbols Tea here, totaling million points!"
Who the hell can afford this?
With these points, you can exchange for an ancient inheritance. Using them all to buy Four Symbols Tea, it feels like there's something wrong with your brain, a huge loss!
Qi Xianjue was worried that Chen Changsheng would lose face, so he chose to chat privately: "How about I sell you two ounces?"
"It's okay, I want the whole catty."
Chen Changsheng once again spoke shockingly.
million points is indeed quite expensive, but he never goes out to train, and he doesn't lack Dao techniques for the time being. He can grit his teeth and pay for it in full.
Qi Xianjue in the secret realm was extremely shocked when he heard this.
He had accumulated a lot of points after years of seclusion, but he didn't dare to be as extravagant as Chen Changsheng.
Tea leaves at 5,000 points per gram, buying a catty at a time, using million points to drink tea?
Awesome!
Qi Xianjue: "Okay, we're all our own people. Maybe I'll come to mooch some tea. Besides, the points exchanged for tea leaves are used to exchange for cultivation resources for the ancient Immortal Dao lineage."
Qi Xianjue: "I'll just charge you 2 million points. The 500,000 points saved will be used as money for everyone to mooch tea."
Without guessing, you can imagine that the first-generation elders of the ancient Immortal Dao lineage will definitely come to mooch tea.
Qi Xianjue didn't want to take advantage, and besides, the points exchanged for Four Symbols Tea were not for his personal use, but for the common ownership of the ancient Immortal Dao lineage.
He just didn't expect that the tea leaves would be bought up by Chen Changsheng alone.
"Come, come, the tea leaves are here, let's taste the flavor of this Four Symbols Tea together."
Chen Changsheng generously took out the tea leaves after spending 2 million points.
At the same time, several figures appeared in the City Lord's Mansion, looking at him with hopeful eyes.
In addition to Zhuo Heng, Luo Liuxi, Wu Yingmei, and Yuan Rao, Luo Liuxi also brought Miao Miao and Yu Niang.
