Chapter 206

Have you returned to the sect?

Lin Meng was delighted; she had high hopes for Ye Fan.

The exquisite storage bag I sent her last time, she liked it a lot; this time I have another gift to give her, but I hope it's something she can actually use.

Lin Meng thought this, and her anticipation grew.

Ye Fan felt a little nervous at this moment; he wasn't sure whether the Immortal Sister would like this pair of bell tripods.

But no matter what, this pair of bell tripods was bought for the Immortal Sister; I have to give it to her.

Thus Ye Fan stored the jade bell tripod in his space and said:

Immortal Sister, I and my senior brothers and sisters are still on the way back to the sect; we should be able to return tomorrow.

This pair of jade bell tripods looks really nice to me, so I couldn't help buying them to give to the Immortal Sister, but they are only the lowest-grade magical artifacts.

When he said the last sentence, Ye Fan's voice was like a mosquito's buzz, almost inaudible.

In the world of cultivation, everyone knows that looks can't fill your stomach; only strength is real.

No matter how beautiful a magical artifact is, it's still just a magical artifact; its value should be judged by its function and grade, but he only cared about appearance, fearing the Immortal Sister would think him shallow and the gift perfunctory.

Lin Meng curiously flashed into the second space and saw two jade-white bell tripods suspended in midair, emitting a strange power.

Is this a magical artifact? Even though it's only a low-grade one, it gives her a powerful feeling; this artifact is too amazing!

Lin Meng didn't think the gift was slight at all; she even wanted to praise Ye Fan greatly—it truly hit her heart!

If I gave her a unusable magical artifact, she'd still have to worry about it.

Even the lowest-grade magical artifact should be usable by her, a little Qi Refining Sixth Layer cultivator, right?

Lin Meng was overjoyed inside, but she still kept her composure on the surface; nevertheless, she didn't hold back her praise for Ye Fan.

This pair of jade bell tripods is very pretty; I really like them, Ye Fan—your taste is excellent.

Upon hearing Lin Meng's words, Ye Fan's lips curled up instantly and he let out a big sigh of relief in his heart.

Great, the Immortal Sister likes it and even praised his eye for quality.

Having received Lin Meng's affirmation, Ye Fan's mood instantly improved to the point of wanting to fly, and he then opened up the conversation again.

Immortal Sister, this magical artifact doesn't have a name yet; you can name them yourself.

The one with a ghost face carved on the handle is the Soul-Control Bell Tripod, which can control souls; the one with a wolf beast carved is the Beast-Control Bell Tripod, but its grade is too low, so it probably only works on cultivators below Qi Refining Third Layer and first-rank minor demon beasts.

As Ye Fan spoke, he felt regret in his heart.

If that old man could refine medium-grade magical artifacts, that would be great; low-grade magical artifacts are ultimately too useless, of little use to cultivators.

After hearing that, Lin Meng's heart surged with excitement, her gaze burning as she stared at the pair of jade bell tripods.

She suddenly reached out and summoned the two bell tripods to her palm, examining them closely; the more she looked, the more she liked them, and her joy grew.

Reward! She wants to treat Ye Fan to a big meal!

To her, this jade bell tripod is practically a supreme treasure.

Ye Fan, you really have heart; I love this pair of magical artifacts so much—tell me, what do you want to eat? I'll cook for you myself!

Ye Fan was overwhelmed by the favor, but at the thought of tasting the Immortal Sister's cooking, he couldn't help swallowing.

Immortal Sister, as long as it's made by you, I like it.

Lin Meng was in high spirits: "Your mouth is really sweet; wait, I'll go make it right away!"

Lin Meng flashed out of the space, rushed to the kitchen, and swiftly prepared three dishes and a soup for Ye Fan, with the rice naturally cooked from organic rice.

One dish of abalone braised pork with boiled egg, one dish of oil-drizzled shrimp, one dish of stir-fried okra with the petty boss, plus a bowl of chicken soup.

As the four dishes and soup were sent into the space, Ye Fan immediately sensed it.

When he extended his mental power into the spirit abode space, his whole body suddenly froze in place.

The people on the road noticed Ye Fan had fallen behind, quickly activating their flying artifacts to return, and saw Ye Fan standing on his flying sword, shock evident in his eyes.

Junior Brother Ye, what's wrong?

Song Yun patted Ye Fan's shoulder, his eyes filled with worry.

Ye Fan snapped back to his senses, quickly shaking his head, temporarily suppressing the shock in his heart.

It's fine, maybe I forgot to take the inedia pill; my stomach is a bit hungry and uncomfortable, sorry senior brothers and sisters, let's continue on our way.

Seeing Ye Fan's cute foolishness, Song Yun couldn't help chuckling, took an inedia pill from his storage bag and handed it to him.

Take it and eat; we're rushing back to the sect to report, it's not good to go fight wild positions, junior brother, pay attention a bit.

Song Yun and the others were already accustomed to inedia, so they naturally didn't feel anything wrong with not eating rice.

However, Ye Fan had only just joined the sect not long ago, so it's normal that he's not yet accustomed.

The group continued sky flight, rushing toward the Cloud Heaven Sect.

Ye Fan didn't actually take the inedia pill; that was just an excuse he made up.

What truly shocked him into stopping midair, making him forget he was still on the journey, was one of the dishes in the space—a dish personally prepared by the Immortal Sister!

The whole pot of spirit rice exuded an enticing aroma, naturally shocking him as well; the Immortal Sister was too generous to him.

Even the sect elders covet the spirit rice, yet the Immortal Sister gives it to him pot after pot.

Of course, the spirit rice was merely secondary; what truly shocked him was the boiled egg in that plate of braised pork!

He knew boiled egg; back in the village, the only meaty food he could get, besides his own hunted game, was this egg.

One boiled egg, its shell still from the fertile soil of the field, the white egg was eaten bite by bite.

He was too familiar with the taste of boiled egg to possibly not recognize an egg.

But, although the few boiled eggs given by the Immortal Sister clearly looked like eggs, why did he also smell the aura of a foundation establishment pill besides the egg's fragrance!

Yes, that's exactly the reason Ye Fan was so shocked.

That's a foundation establishment pill; in the sect, one such pill is worth a hundred spirit stones, and you can't just buy it with spirit stones.

The spiritual herbs needed to refine Foundation Establishment Pills are not easy to find, so disciples who want to obtain Foundation Establishment Pills can only desperately do tasks, earn enough points, before they can go to the Pill Hall to exchange.

From the sect's perspective, it's simply that this Foundation Establishment Pill, having only spirit stones insufficient, requires making many contributions to the sect before one is worthy to obtain it.

Ye Fan has now reached the ninth layer of Qi Refining; soon he will perfect his Qi Refining, after which he will attempt to impact Foundation Establishment.

He had also considered making pills himself, but upon learning that the prescription for Foundation Establishment Pills is worth a fortune, and moreover one must gather spirit herbs, after all that, who knows when he could ever obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill?

Ye Fan never expected that the Foundation Establishment Pill he had been worrying about would actually appear before him in this way.

In that moment, Ye Fan couldn't help but redden his eye sockets.

This must have been specially arranged by the Immortal Sister; she knows everything, she knows that I am about to impact Foundation Establishment, and is currently worrying about the Foundation Establishment Pill.

But giving it to him so directly will surely double his mental pressure.

So the Immortal Sister came up with this method, hiding the Foundation Establishment Pill in those boiled eggs; it must be like this!
