The Clan Master Can’t possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 1337: Chapter 1337: Mature Enlightenment Tea

Ancient Mechanical Star.

A volcanic crater.

The Hexagonal Ancestral Box retracted its light wings and landed here, accompanied by four Mechanical Black Tortoise Clan Guards that had recently broken through to the Upper Grade Spiritual Artifact level.

"Creator, have you had another inspiration?"

One of the guards spoke.

"Yes, I am preparing to create a new devouring-type species called the ’Mechanical Terrestrial King Clan.’"

The Hexagonal Ancestral Box transmitted its voice.

In the next moment.

Based on the data from its deductions, it began gathering energy and various materials, using the volcano to smelt and refine them to obtain the necessary elements.

Afterward, it began the process of incubation.

Half a day later.

A faint golden eggshell was printed out by the Hexagonal Ancestral Box and buried under a pile of rubble.

Crack!

The eggshell quickly shattered, and out crawled a thumb-sized mechanical worm about half a meter long. Its body gleamed dark gold, and its mouth was lined with spiral mechanical teeth that devoured the eggshell to replenish energy and stabilize itself.

"Crunch, crunch, crunch!"

It began gnawing on the surrounding rocks, absorbing the minerals within, and crushing the unwanted materials into moist, fertile clay that it expelled.

Wherever the Mechanical Terrestrial King Clan passed, the originally barren stony terrain gradually transformed into fertile soil.

Misty Sect.

Ye Feng watched the scene before him, realizing that the Hexagonal Ancestral Box had created yet another new species. He couldn’t help but clap his hands and laugh lightly.

"Good, very good!"

"With the Mechanical Terrestrial King Clan creating fertile soil, the Ancient Mechanical Star will now be suitable for carbon-based lifeforms to live on. Perhaps, in the not-so-distant future, this place will become a harmonious world where carbon-based and iron-based life can coexist."

He dispersed the image and reclined on his lounge chair.

This was a beautiful vision.

Ye Feng hoped it would come true.

On the lounge chair.

He brewed himself a cup of tea, took a light sip, and found the tea pleasantly sweet and of unmatched quality. Feeling delighted, he turned to look at the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree behind him.

"Growing very well."

"The Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree has now reached the Peak of its growth stage. Before long, it will break through to its maturation stage, enhancing the effectiveness of its tea leaves even more."

"So..."

"How should I help it reach maturation?"

To break through from the growth stage to the maturation stage required assistance; otherwise, success would be very difficult.

After that, there were still the metamorphosis and peak stages to aim for.

Those two stages were even harder to break through, especially the metamorphosis stage, where success would be as challenging as a cultivator breaking through to the mid-to-high levels of the Hundred Tribulations Realm.

"Let me deduce a solution first."

Ye Feng murmured.

He formed hand seals continuously, deducing methods until he finally arrived at a solution to help the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree advance to the maturation stage. He quickly took out a large piece of Realm Source Purple Gold.

"Refine!"

With a single point of his finger to the surface of the Realm Source Purple Gold, it was immediately incinerated by Dao Fire, gradually melting into a vast expanse of purple-golden Acquired Primordial Energy.

This substance was also known as Realm Source.

"Just having Realm Source is not enough; I’ll also need boundless energy. It seems I’ll have to make a trip to the Immortal Realm."

Ye Feng muttered.

Rip!

He stepped into the void, arriving at the Minor Immortal Realm. Passing through the Gate of the Immortal Realm, he entered the distant Tianlan Immortal Realm and ventured deeper into the Immortal Domain Starry Sky.

"Refine for me!"

Ye Feng raised his hands to the heavens, absorbing the astral power within a range of countless light-years and transforming it into pure energy, channeling it into his body.

Boom!

Having already reached his limit, Ye Feng instantly broke through his realm, advancing forcefully from the Second Layer Peak of the Creation Realm to the Third Layer.

Seizing the moment of his breakthrough, Ye Feng drew a deep breath and mobilized the power of his small universe, channeling it into the Realm Source before him.

Crack, crack, crack!

The substance solidified swiftly, forming a purple-golden crystal the size of a fist that pulsated with immense Origin power, capable of drastically boosting one’s cultivation.

"Phew!"

"It’s done."

Ye Feng murmured.

Having consumed a substantial portion of his small universe’s power, the realm he had just advanced to nearly regressed. Quickly, he took deep breaths, devouring the energy from the surrounding star systems to stabilize his cultivation.

Afterward, Ye Feng tore through the void and swiftly left.

A while later.

Several figures appeared.

"Strange, where did he go?"

"Could it be possible that it wasn’t a person absorbing the energy from the star systems just now, but a treasure?"

"Wouldn’t that mean it’s an Immortal Emperor Artifact?"

"But where is the artifact?"

"Are you stupid? For treasures of this level, once they’re fully formed, they’re bound to hide themselves away."

"What a pity, we missed it!"

The figures exchanged whispers, mistakenly assuming that the energy absorption was caused by an Immortal Emperor Artifact and lamenting their loss.

...

Misty Peak.

Ye Feng appeared out of thin air.

Stretching his hand, a purple-golden crystal materialized in his palm. It contained the energy of an entire star system, enough to elevate someone to the First Layer of the Hundred Tribulations Realm.

Contained within it was also Realm Source!

The value of this crystal rivaled that of an Immortal Emperor Artifact.

Rustle, rustle, rustle!

The Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree sensed the energy aura of the Realm Source crystal and shook with excitement. Every single leaf trembled as if elated.

"Don’t worry, this is for you."

Ye Feng crushed the Realm Source crystal, letting it seep into the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree, causing it to grow taller, from over three meters to five meters high.

Each tea leaf became smaller.

Yet the veins on their surfaces grew more intricate and thicker, emanating a refreshing aura that invigorated the senses.

"Success!"

"The Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree has now advanced to its maturation stage, comparable to the peak stage of ordinary-grade plants, significantly boosting enlightenment benefits."

Ye Feng was overjoyed.

He plucked a few tea leaves, rinsed them with the Immortal Spirit Holy Spring, placed them into a teapot, and steeped them in boiling water from the Immortal Spirit Holy Spring.

Three minutes later.

Ye Feng poured out a cup of tea, took a light sip, and felt a lingering fragrance spread through his mouth, accompanied by an immeasurable sense of comfort, bringing a subtle yet permanent increase to his enlightenment.

"What a great tea!"

"Truly worthy of being from the maturation stage of the Enlightenment Tea Tree."

"Perhaps it’s time to host another Enlightenment Tea Ceremony, inviting some old friends from Shenzhou to join... But more importantly, the sect disciples must benefit from this as well."

"On second thought, let’s skip inviting others."

"This Enlightenment Tea Ceremony will simply be an internal meeting for the sect. If there are benefits to share, the disciples should get a taste first, don’t you think?"

Ye Feng glanced at the Enlightenment Tea Tree.

Upon hearing this, the tree trembled nervously.

"Haha, no need to panic. I only want some tea leaves, not your bark. What are you afraid of?"

Ye Feng reassured gently.

Rustle, rustle, rustle!

The Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree calmed down, shaking itself to drop eight hundred matured Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Leaves, which Ye Feng collected.

"This many will be plenty."

Ye Feng stretched his neck and began transmitting his voice:

"Attention, all members of the Misty Sect!"

"Regardless of what you are doing or where you are, return to the sect immediately."

"Three days from now."

"To celebrate the Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree’s advancement to maturation, I will host an Enlightenment Tea Ceremony."

"At that time, everyone will have the chance to taste the tea."

His voice echoed through the Identity Tokens, reaching even those in the Tianlan Immortal Realm like Chu Tianlan, prompting them to hurry back.

"The Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea Tree has advanced?"

"That’s wonderful news!"

"Also, the Sect Leader is out of seclusion?!"

The disciples were thrilled, quickly packing their belongings and rushing back to the sect.

Three days later.

Sect Main Plaza.

Ye Feng sat on the Sect Leader’s throne. Beneath him, the elders, stewards, disciples, and spiritual beasts took their respective seats, numbering in the tens of thousands.

In the sky above.

A massive teapot was brewing tea.

"The auspicious hour has arrived; let’s drink!"

Ye Feng gently tapped his finger, and the lid of the giant teapot flew open. The five tons of tea within soared into the air, dividing into tens of thousands of portions that perfectly poured into individual cups.

"What a wonderful fragrance!"

"Just the aroma alone has made me feel completely rejuvenated, and my understanding has deepened. The cultivation problems that troubled me before have all become clear."

"Don’t let it get cold; drink quickly!"

The disciples took careful sips of the Enlightenment Tea, enhancing their comprehension and seizing the opportunity to cultivate, cherishing every single drop without waste.

"Water!"

Ye Feng tapped his finger again, and the Immortal Spirit Holy Spring from the peak of Misty Peak flowed into the giant teapot, continuing to heat and brew the tea leaves, releasing waves of fragrant tea aroma.

Following this, everyone continued to savor the tea.

The disciples soon entered deep cultivation, with most of them experiencing significant breakthroughs.

The elders, meanwhile, closed their eyes in contemplation.

In their perceptions, their insights had expanded noticeably, allowing them to aim for even higher realms.

From the throne,

Ye Feng observed everyone’s progress, setting his tea cup down as a sense of profound satisfaction and joy filled his heart.
