Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times

And the scholar couldn't help but murmur in a trance, "I seem to see myself in white garments, a sword in hand, standing alone at the highest peak of the Boundless Snow Mountain, making solitary decisions that span through the ages."

Chen Qiu shook his head with a smile, picked up the teapot, and poured each person, including himself, half a cup.

He had also drunk Spiritual Tea before.

But this was probably the most expensive Spiritual Tea he had ever tasted. Just one "Frostveil Tea" leaf could only brew one teapot, and as the fragrance spilled out, the Frostveil Tea had completely dissolved into the spring water.

One pot could pour out about a dozen cups, and each cup of tea was probably worth one Mid-grade Spirit Stone.

"Everyone, have a taste."

Chen Qiu took the lead, raised his teacup, and took a light sip. The scalding tea was, at the moment it entered his throat, filled with fragrance; his Golden Core Cultivation was strong enough that even without fortifying his physical body, he was still stronger than ordinary people, naturally not fearing the scalding heat.

Yet within the heat, there carried waves of chilliness.

Even a mortal drinking it would not harm their throat; on the contrary, they would experience the unique sensation of heat and chilliness continuously interchanging in their throat and flowing into their belly.

Slightly astringent, with a sweet aftertaste.

With one sip, the fragrance rushed to the nose; perhaps because he knew the cost of this cup of Spiritual Tea was extremely high, he felt that its aroma was rarely seen in this world.

"Excellent tea."

A few moments later, Chen Qiu slowly opened his eyes, looked at the now-empty teacup in his hands, and couldn't help but sigh. He previously thought that tea was just something to quench thirst, casually drinkable, but having tasted this cup of Spiritual Tea today—

He then knew the difference between teas was as vast as the difference between heaven and earth!

The most important thing was—

After the Everfrost Dominion melted into the tea and was drunk, it would slightly enhance his control and strength over Ice Magic.

Whereas drinking the Frostveil Tea could increase one's Cultivation.

Of course.

Having drunk only half a cup, he did not feel any change in his Cultivation, but he felt a pleasant warmth in his belly.

Yet Fat Long, sitting beside him, had a glint of shock flash through his eyes, and his voice trembled as he said, "Brother Qiu, this half cup of tea increased my Cultivation Progress by one percent!"

"Oh?"

Chen Qiu's eyes flashed with surprise, not expecting that this half cup of Spiritual Tea was so effective. It was much stronger than the Heavenly Dao Cultivation Pill for Foundation Establishment. Fat Long had a Foundation Establishment at the fourth level, and this half cup of Spiritual Tea had increased his Cultivation Progress by one percent.

That effect was substantial!

You should know—

This Frostveil Tea's primary effect was its deliciousness, meant to be used as a beverage, and enhancing Cultivation was just an auxiliary effect. Yet even its secondary effect was so powerful.

The nearby scholar, who had been savoring the aftertaste in his mouth, heard Fat Long's exclamation and introspected. Looking at the space above his Dantian, he was also surprised and said, "Brother Qiu, my Cultivation Progress increased by one thousandth of a percent."

The scholar had Cultivation at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment.

Half a cup of Spiritual Tea increased his Cultivation by one thousandth of a percent, which was about a tenth of Fat Long's effect, but even so, it was still notably good.

After all, this was just tea.

Moreover, it didn't require operating any mental method to absorb its medicinal properties.

"Try drinking a few more cups."

Chen Qiu was not stingy and promptly refilled half a cup for Fat Long and the others. If drinking tea could improve their Cultivation Progress, then the Everfrost Skygrass he had dug up this time would be enough to forcefully push the scholars to the Golden Core Stage.

...

After six consecutive cups.

Fat Long couldn't help but savor the taste and smack his lips, "Good tea, this might be the best tea in Da Xia. I suspect even the Emperor of Da Xia might not have tasted such fine tea."

"And it's mighty effective."

"Five cups of tea increased my Cultivation Progress by five percent, but this sixth cup of tea was useless."

"Same here," agreed the scholar who had also finished six cups of tea.

Chen Qiu thoughtfully nodded, "There must be a limit, such as within a certain number of hours, or within a single day, only the first five cups of Spiritual Tea have the effect of enhancing Cultivation."

"Since it's useful for you—"

"These five Frostveil Tea leaves and the remaining large chunk of Everfrost Dominion are yours, Fat Long."

"Scholar, you shouldn't drink it on a regular basis."

"For you to gain only one thousandth of a percent in Cultivation Progress per cup is too wasteful. Wait until Fat Long has caught up with you in Cultivation before drinking it. Then you can stop thinking about it."

He still looked somewhat distressed as he glanced at the teapot, which only had enough for one more cup, and after pouring it for himself, he sipped slowly, savoring the sweetness in his mouth.

"Frostveil Tea," one plant could only brew one teapot, and a pot only had about a dozen cups in total.

He had altogether acquired more than three hundred plants.

He had planned to save them for future enjoyment.

Using them like this to improve Cultivation Progress was too wasteful, after all, it couldn't increase much Cultivation Progress. It was the chunk of "Everfrost Dominion" that could brew over a dozen pots of tea.

The "Everfrost Dominion" was sufficient.

But the tea was not.

"I'll listen to Brother Qiu..."
Your journey continues with My Virtual Library Empire

The scholar looked at Fat Long with a melancholic gaze and spoke faintly.

"Hehe."

Fat Long chuckled as he took the Storage Ring Chen Qiu handed to him: "Thanks, Brother Qiu, and don't look at me like that, Scholar. Brother Qiu is also right, after all, your Cultivation is too high. By drinking one cup you'd gain so little progress in Cultivation. You might as well sleep and increase it through Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment. Just forget about this little bit of mine."

...

After doing all this, Chen Qiu didn't bother with Fat Long and the others but went straight to the mountain peak behind the Chao Tian Sect.

After the snow retreated from the Boundless Snow Mountain,

a number of caves were revealed, all of which he had explored, but, unfortunately, they turned out to be empty, containing nothing, not even bones, clearly having been abandoned a long time ago.

The greatest gains were those chunks of Everfrost Dominion, the Frostveil Tea, and all those various medicinal herbs that added up to many Mid-grade Spirit Stones in value.
