Chapter 127

"Only by officially cultivating can Klee have the power to protect herself in the future Teyvat."

With that, Alice thought about it and took out a large pile of miscellaneous materials and equipment.

Jiang Yan even saw missile launchers and firearms in it.

However, Alice put them away in a hurry.

This made Jiang Yan somewhat dumbfounded.

It seems that this Lady Alice has really traveled to many other worlds.

The sound of clattering lasted for a long time, and Zhongli felt a bit embarrassed.

The Sect Main Hall represents the Shushan Sect Master and is a solemn place. If you do this, you should be caught in the Law Enforcement Hall.

But Alice...

She is giving gifts to Sect Master Jiang Yan and Shushan.

This made him, the Peak Master of Dragon Head Peak

Fortunately, seeing that Jiang Yan didn't say anything, and since Alice wasn't a Shushan disciple yet, he simply acted as if he hadn't seen it.

"Alright!"

After a while, Alice walked out from behind the pile of resources that had been stacked into a small hill, looking proud.

"This is just about all the good stuff I've collected over these years. As a master-apprenticeship gift and a token of gratitude, should this be enough, Fan?"

81. Keli's Fire Spirit Body super-evolution, Red Emperor Burning Heaven Body?

Alice's move caught both Venti and Lisa off guard.

Since she had expressed her intent, they were left in an awkward position.

Fortunately, Alice seemed to notice their embarrassment and simply said:

"Let this count as the master-apprenticeship gift from me, Lisa, and Keli!"

"???"

Lisa breathed a sigh of relief and gave Alice a grateful look, while Venti, standing to the side, was dumbfounded.

He looked at Alice in disbelief, as if questioning where their friendship of so many years had gone.

Alice curled her lips and retorted:

"You should bring out your own! You've been traveling across Teyvat for so many years; could you really be short on good things?"

Venti rolled his eyes.

"My things are all products of Teyvat; Sect Master Jiang Yan might not think much of them. Besides, don't you know what kind of person I am?"

"I've already traded quite a lot just for wine!"

Seeing the two of them bickering, Jiang Yan smiled and waved his hand, saying:

"It is no matter. Shushan does not care about the master-apprenticeship gifts of its disciples; as long as the sentiment is there, it is enough."

"Furthermore, from my perspective, you are all individuals with excellent talent. Shushan will not refuse such geniuses from joining."

"As for these gifts…"

Alice said with a grin:

"It's fine. It's a master-apprenticeship gift, after all; Sect Master Jiang Yan need not decline. Shushan has just been established, so some things from outside Teyvat should still be of some use, right?"

Jiang Yan pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.

"Very well. There are indeed many precious resources among these items; I shall have them stored in the Shushan Sect's resource treasury."

"Many of these medicinal herbs possess potent medicinal power, and there are also many minerals that can serve as materials for refining Dharma treasures and spirit artifacts."

"Once Liuyun crafts a pill furnace and Lishui cultivates spirit herbs, these supplies can be used as a foundation for refining."

"However, the quantity of these items is quite large, and it could not have been easy for you to collect them. Later, I will convert a portion into contribution points so you can use them to exchange for resources in the future."

Upon hearing this, Alice's eyes lit up, and she did not refuse.

Having read many cultivation novels, she naturally understood the importance of cultivation resources in the world of cultivation.

Things like spirit stones, medicinal pills, and Dharma treasures.

Joining a sect meant that all these things were linked to contribution points.

Even if only for Keli's future, Alice had to collect as many contribution points and cultivation resources as possible.

Venti, standing to the side, racked his brain for a long time trying to think of something he could offer.

But after thinking it over, he didn't feel that Jiang Yan would think much of anything he had.

Finally, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind, and he casually cut off a wisp of flowing wind and said:

"Sect Master Jiang Yan, I don't have anything particularly good, but this is a wisp of my power's essence. Hmm… it is imbued with some power of time."

"Sect Master Jiang Yan should find this somewhat interesting, right?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yan immediately became interested.

He had originally intended to wait for Venti to join the sect and find time to chat with him then.

He hadn't expected Venti to bring it out now; this was a good thing.

The power of time, even the time of a small world, is extremely precious.

By relying on the Huang Ting Jing, perhaps he could figure out some higher-level power?

This item was quite useful to him.

Jiang Yan did not hypocritically decline; he reached out and summoned the wisp of flowing wind into his palm.

As the faint power of time flowed in his palm, Jiang Yan nodded slightly.

"I am indeed interested in this. Since that is the case, I shall accept it without further modesty."

Venti shrugged.

"It is best if Sect Master Jiang Yan finds it useful."

In any case, after this trip to Shushan, Venti had seen the truth.

With a cultivation system in place, the so-called fated reincarnation was nothing but a joke.

The entirety of Teyvat combined wasn't enough to play with for Jiang Yan alone; since that was the case, what else was there to think about?

He would decisively cling to the powerful figure and stop worrying about that nonsense called fated reincarnation.

He would just cultivate!

No matter what twists and turns Teyvat faced, Jiang Yan was there to keep things in check.

As long as Shushan existed, Teyvat would never be turned upside down.

And he, Venti, could happily cultivate and slack off; how great was that?

Don't let Venti's daily carefree and unserious demeanor fool you; if he weren't clever, could he have lived for so long?

"Since you have all decided to join Shushan, I will say no more. Sect Leader Zhongli, please introduce the rules of Shushan to the new disciples."

"Then, test their aptitudes and have them join Shushan."

Zhongli nodded slightly.

"Yes, Sect Master."

Having said that, Zhongli followed the procedure from that day and began introducing the situation of Shushan to them.

Jiang Yan, however, did not pay much attention to this anymore.

Jiang Yan could not figure out the secrets of Venti's power essence, which was imbued with a wisp of the power of time, in such a short time.

He figured he would have to analyze and refine it with his full attention.

One could never be too careful when dealing with the power of time.

Jiang Yan first put it away.

He then turned his attention to the massive amount of resources provided by Alice.

These items were truly worthy of being what Alice had collected for so many years.

Taking equipment alone, not a single piece was inferior to a Dharma treasure.

There was even a bracelet that was actually comparable to a low-grade spirit artifact.

The only thing missing was the infusion of spirituality.

These items could be stored in the Shushan Sect's treasury, to be left for the disciples to exchange for once the contribution point system was launched.

As for medicinal herbs, there were also many with powerful effects; he wondered where Alice had found all of these.

Planting them in the spirit fields would surely yield a gratifying harvest; he would set them aside for now and just have Lishui plant them later.

As for the remaining minerals…

This was what Jiang Yan found most pleasantly surprising.
