Chapter 6918 Spring Revival
“This is the legendary Dao Comprehension Divine Tea Tree?”
Zi Nuo, Chi Yutong, and the others stared in disbelief. According to legend, when the Tea Saint reached enlightenment through tea, a divine tree appeared as his companion. People said that divine tree created its own manifestation when the Tea Saint reached that realm.
This tree was legendary, said to have been born at the birth of heaven and earth. It was a spiritual treasure of the world.
Even without drinking the Dao Comprehension Divine Tea, just smelling its fragrance could help someone understand the Heavenly Daos. It could save years of hard training. Thus, stories said the Tea Saint had never faced any obstacles in his cultivation. He kept improving until he reached the top.
No one thought this withered tree could be that legendary existence.
Long Chen could not feel any life in the Dao Comprehension Divine Tea Tree. Still, if the Tea Saint said so, this meant the tree had to be alive.
“Let me try it!” Long Chen said, forming a series of complex hand seals.
The Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree behind him trembled. As it trembled, the same tree in the primal chaos space also quivered. The true body and its projection created a special connection, causing the life energy of the primal chaos space to surge out.
The life energy flowed along the projection of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree into the withered tree, blending seven-color divine light with pure energy.
When the withered tree began to quiver, Yu Lan and the others trembled with emotion. This reaction showed the tree was still alive.
If the tree was still alive, did that mean the Tea Saint was not dead? Over the years, the Tea Saint seemed to exist somewhere between reality and illusion. People outside believed he had died long ago, leaving only a wandering soul.
However, this did not seem true. The Tea Saint was still alive. As the Dao Comprehension Divine Tea Tree recovered, he would regain his strength. It was just a matter of time.
With the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree as a bridge, life energy from the primal chaos space flowed into the ancient tree. Everyone could feel its growing vitality.
The cracks in its trunk closed up. Fresh bark appeared, and new sprouts started to grow. In just a few moments, the ancient tree turned green again. Its crown was now covered by a huge dome of leaves.
The leaves on top of the dome formed a large pattern that looked a bit like a Taiji diagram.
But soon, the flow of life energy came to an end. In that short time, all the life energy stored in the primal chaos space was used up.
Taking more energy would mean taking it from the Heavenly Dao Tree, the Fusang Trees, the Moon Trees, and the medicinal plants.
The Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree stopped the flow of life energy on its own. Long Chen smiled to see how protective it was of its home.
Using more life energy would weaken Long Chen in future battles. That was why the tree stopped.
“As expected, this treasure belongs with you. I am completely sure,” the Tea Saint said, nodding with a smile.
With a wave of his hand, dozens of green leaves floated down from the Dao Comprehension Divine Tea Tree, falling into a teapot.
A clear stream of water flowed into the teapot from midair. Then, the Tea Saint’s fingers twitched, igniting a black-and-white flame, which started the brewing process. As this flame appeared, a refreshing aroma filled the air, carrying a mysterious power capable of cleansing both body and soul.
The green parrot sniffed the air curiously.
“This fragrance... why does it smell so familiar?” Green Old Sixth muttered.
“Of course, it is. Do you not remember how you secretly stole one of the divine branches?” asked the Tea Saint.
“Oh? Was there such a thing? Hmph, I don’t remember at all, so you’re spouting nonsense. Why would I do something like that? If you have no proof, don’t make up such wild accusations!” Green Old Sixth retorted.
The Tea Saint didn’t bother with the green parrot.
As the water in the teapot bubbled softly, the Tea Saint lifted it. Moments later, emerald jade cups materialized out of thin air, and he personally poured the tea. The strange thing was that they could smell the tea while it was brewing, but now they couldn't smell its aroma anymore.
The Tea Saint waved his hands lightly, sending a teacup to each person around him.
As they witnessed this legendary moment, Chi Yutong, Xin Yu, and others could hear their own heartbeats in their ears.
This was legendary tea. Furthermore, it was personally brewed by the Tea Saint. It was a heaven-defying opportunity!
Although Chi Yutong and Xin Yu were born into good families, they were only good. Their sects were like a drop of water in the ocean compared to the vast power of the Wine God Palace and the Tea Saint Dao Temple.
On the other hand, Yan Li was a disciple from a declining sect, without a family to back him up. Now that he was receiving such dream-like treatment, he hesitated to move, fearing he would wake up from the dream.
Not to mention them, even the disciples of the Wine God Palace and the Tea Saint Dao Temple were incredibly emotional.
“Since you’ve all come to the Tea Saint Dao Temple, it’s only proper that you be served a cup of tea! Please, help yourselves!” said the Tea Saint.
Everyone thanked the Tea Saint and carefully lifted their cups. They tried to sip slowly, but as soon as the tea touched their lips, it was gone in an instant.
They all fell to the ground, even Green Old Sixth.
Only Long Chen stayed standing, eyes shut tight. He saw stars moving across the sky and watched time pass by.
Spring turned to autumn. Flowers withered and bloomed again. People appeared and vanished. Mountains and rivers became fields, and blue seas turned into mulberry fields. Long Chen felt like a god watching it all.
He had no idea how much time had gone by, but a sigh snapped him back to reality. When he opened his eyes, everyone else was still asleep.
The Tea Saint patted his shoulder.
“Your will is too strong. Furthermore, the Dao Comprehension Divine Tea Tree is not back at its peak. It cannot awaken your sealed memories. Brother, I cannot help you much.”
Long Chen hastily replied, “Big Brother Nightless, you’re too courteous!”
“Come. Let us brothers talk somewhere else.”
The Tea Saint guided Long Chen away. As Long Chen walked off, he didn’t forget to kick the green parrot in his way, and the Tea Saint laughed at that.
“Brother, you might be the first to dare to treat the primal chaos divine item, the Six Dao Stone, like that.”
“This fellow’s no good bird. I treated it sincerely, but it is always trying to cheat me,” said Long Chen.
The Tea Saint led Long Chen to another location in the Dao Temple. The Tea Saint gazed into the distance and sighed.
“Brother, do you know why the Star Master failed back then?”
