Chapter 702: Chapter 396: Dragonwood Island Master_3
One could say,
among these many grandmasters, even if some are of advanced age with no chance of breaking through to the Blood Exchange Realm, there are always younger generations of grandmasters who, in the future, could definitely birth several contenders for the Blood Exchange Realm. Even the Dragonwood Island Master wouldn’t take them lightly.
What’s more, the convergence of over a hundred grandmasters is a force extremely formidable in itself; even a high-level expert of the Celestial Human Level wouldn’t underestimate such a vast number of grandmasters.
As the words fell,
suddenly a large number of young disciples clad in blue robes arrived in the midst, all of them disciples of Tingchao Cliff, their demeanors respectful as they either held teapots and jade cups, or carried tea tables, arriving in front of each grandmaster and starting to pour the tea.
The tea was crystal clear, like jade liquid. Each cupful exuded wafts of refreshing spiritual fragrance that permeated in all directions.
“This is Xunmu Spiritual Tea, which uses the tenderest new leaves from atop Xunmu and is steeped in Wood Spirit Liquid. It is beneficial for cleansing the Soul Heart, although for everyone present it is, admittedly, of modest benefit. Please enjoy,”
the Dragonwood Island Master’s voice came once again.
This time, however, it wasn’t through transmission of sound via the heaven and earth but from the person himself, wrapped in a long robe, who had appeared at some point right beneath that towering Dragonwood tree, holding a cup of Spiritual Tea with a smile while looking toward the many grandmasters gathered around.
“We’ve seen the Island Master.”
“Please, Island Master.”
The grandmasters closest in distance were the first to react, either bowing to the Dragonwood Island Master or lifting their Spiritual Tea in a gesture of respect.

Chen Mu was also among Yan Hong’s entourage, his gaze quietly taking in the Dragonwood Island Master before withdrawing his eyes, and then he too lifted a cup of Spiritual Tea. His sight lingered on the liquid, sensing the spiritual essence within and nodding inwardly.
The Spiritual Tea was indeed no mere formal gesture; to his perception, it was truly extraordinary. However, everyone present was a grandmaster, and even the finest Spiritual Tea would only warrant a slight taste, with no significant effect. To truly benefit someone like him, one would need a substantial amount of genuine Xunmu Spirit Liquid.
At the same moment,
the Dragonwood Island Master’s gaze also casually swept over the assembly.
He had already observed the many grandmasters present, and compared to the assembly from over a hundred years ago, there were somewhat more participants this time, though overall the quality was somewhat less. All things considered, the difference was minimal.
The quantity was just right; together with their own Tingchao Cliff grandmasters, barring any unexpected events, they should be able to handle it without severe losses or returning empty-handed, and each would manage to obtain some amount of Xunmu Spirit Liquid more or less.
“The representatives of the Da Xuan Dynasty Court, huh…”
Just at that moment, as if sensing something, the Dragonwood Island Master glanced discreetly in the direction of Yan Hong and the others, but detected no abnormalities, his eyes reflecting a contemplative expression.
Although Tingchao Cliff has been in possession of the Outer Sea for thousands of years, the Da Xuan Dynasty Court, ruling over the Ninety-Nine State, was unfathomable to him; a bit of peculiarity was perfectly normal. However, he remembered those eight princes, and noted that not one of them had come.
After the thought flashed by, the Dragonwood Island Master withdrew his gaze.
He had little interest in the conflicts within the Da Xuan Dynasty Court. Whether it was the imperial throne or the rule over the Ninety-Nine State, after all, the Outer Sea was extremely peculiar. Even when the Da Xuan Martial Emperor unified the land long ago, he failed to influence the Outer Sea, and the current Court would struggle even more. And the people of the Outer Sea had never coveted the resources of the Ninety-Nine State; thus, the outcome of the throne’s strife was of little consequence to him.
His sole concern was the opening of the Xunmu Cave Heaven this time; at his current Cultivation Realm, the effectiveness of the Xunmu Spirit Liquid was indeed limited for him. However, he had many talented youths and juniors who were only a step away from entering the Marrow Cleansing Realm. With enough Xunmu Spirit Liquid, the likelihood of these younger generations stepping into the Marrow Cleansing Realm could increase by at least ten to twenty percent. Given that Xunmu Spirit Liquid could only be obtained once every hundred years or so, it was a resource that both Tingchao Cliff and the present Dragonwood Island needed.
