Everyone else felt exceedingly comfortable. Even those aristocratic families who were subordinate to the three Holy Lands also felt a much more refreshing feeling in their hearts... In the past, when had they ever been in a position to be treated equally with the three Holy Lands?
To think that something that even their ancestors had not managed to do or dream of had actually been accomplished today thanks to the Evil Monarch... That they could sit in the same hall as the Saint Venerables, Saint Emperors, and even the Palace Lords of the three Holy Lands in the same place!
The Evil Monarch was indeed evil enough!
In the entire world, he was probably the only person who could do something like this!
Even if it were another person who had an irreconcilable grudge with the three Holy Lands, they would not necessarily dare to so outrageously refuse to give the three Holy Lands any face in such a formal setting! However, the Evil Monarch dared! Not only did he dare, he even did it in such a brazen manner!
And the most important thing was that the three Holy Lands actually did not raise any opinions after being treated like that by the Evil Monarch. The moment they said anything... that would mean that they looked down upon all the other heroes of the world! And they would suddenly be standing in opposition against everyone!
Thus, the three Holy Lands were fated to suffer in silence!
The crowd was soon all seated. The three Holy Lands and the Misty Illusory Manor’s table were on the first row, directly opposite the main stage.
This kind of feeling was rather unbearable, as if they were only considered of a lower status, while those who could go onto the stage were the people who had truly high status!
Mo Wu Dao, Xi Ruo Chen, and the rest did not say anything, and their expressions were composed and light, as if they didn’t mind, but the caution in their hearts grew more pronounced.
All of them were people with great analytical abilities. Being able to obtain thousands of Austere Heart Orchids was certainly no easy task, but the most difficult thing was that just what method did that brat Jun Mo Xie use, to cause these several thousand Austere Heart Orchids to bloom at the same time? And each Austere Heart Orchid had eight fresh flowers exactly. Such freakish accuracy was the truly shocking part...
But being astonished was one thing... the various Palace Lords had already decided in their hearts that the moment Jun Mo Xie came out later, they would definitely show him some colors! Even though they could not directly disregard everything and start a fight because of the approaching War for Seizing the Heavens, but they would not allow the grand opening ceremony of the Evil Monarch Manor to progress so smoothly!

On the other side, Qiao Ying and Miao Xiao Miao entered another large hall in the castle and were somewhat stunned at this time.
On the main wall of this grand hall, there was only a single, ancient looking sword hanging slanted on the wall. There were no other decorations, save for this single sword hanging against the snow-white wall. It was an exceedingly simple and plain set-up, but an indescribable killing intent could be felt surging from it!
Four large pearls were laid into the four corners of the ceiling. Every single pearl was shining brightly, with a myriad of colors. Qiao Ying had always lived a simple and hardworking life, and was unsure of what it was, only taking them to be simple decorations. But Miao Xiao Miao was from an aristocratic line, and with a single look, she could tell that these were the exceedingly rare Night Illumination Pearls!
As it was still daytime right now, they didn’t seem anything special. But if it was night, the hall would not need any light at all! It would be as bright as day... Truthfully, to call it bright as day would be somewhat inaccurate. The light given out by the Night Illumination Pearls was soft and gentle, not glaring for the eyes at all. At the same time, the fragrance emitting from it was greatly beneficial to the human body...
For this kind of pearls, not to mention four, just one would have a value worth several cities! Even if one had money, it would be a treasure that could not be bought! But if that were all, it wouldn’t be so amazing. The most shocking part was that these four pearls were exactly the same size! For four identical sized Night Illumination Pearls to be gathered in one place like this, could only be described with the word miraculous...
There were a few chairs placed in a seemingly disorderly manner, but in a somewhat intentional manner. These chairs looked somewhat strange in style, but as long as one observed carefully, it would not be difficult to realize that these chairs would undoubtedly be extremely comfortable to sit on, a stark difference from those hard and stiff ancient styled chairs.
Between the chairs, there were sets of green jade tea sets. A plate of white jade patterned plate could be seen in the middle of each tea set, within which was a bunch of tender shoots. The color of these shoots was light and gave others a calm and melancholic feeling.
“That’s the Ancient Tea Fragrance Herb!” Miao Xiao Miao exclaimed loudly, her eyes nearly popping out from her head.
The Ancient Tea Fragrance Herb was a kind of extremely special plant. There weren’t any particularly special medicinal effects from it, but the amazing thing was that it could release a kind of special tea fragrance that gladdens the heart and refreshes the mind!
From the time this herb started growing, it would only be as tall as a finger and would not get any taller! Within the first hundred years, there would be no effects at all. An Ancient Tea Fragrance Herb that had reached 500 years of age would have a light green color, and would already release a faint tea fragrance.
When it reached 1,000 years, it would turn pale blue, and no matter where one placed it, it would fill the entire room with an enchanting smell. But only when they were above 10,000 years would they be fitting of the name ‘Ancient’. The Ancient Tea Fragrance Herb that had reach 10,000 years would turn white instead, and their fragrance would be more subdued. One only needed to place it in the pot, and even if only regular plain water was used to boil it, one would get a pot of top grade tea!
But if that was all, this would only be a slightly more rare plaything. But the true effects lie in the part where if one drank the tea made with the peak grade tea fragrance for enough times, it would have a very beneficial effect towards helping a Xuan cultivator in a breakthrough!
It could allow a person to breakthrough a bottleneck without any side effects! To those cultivators who had been stuck at a bottleneck for tens or hundreds, even thousands of years, this was a priceless treasure that they longed for even in their dreams!
The tea leaves placed on the tea sets had already turned into a white, jade-like color, and there were even traces of it glimmering with an enchanting luster. From the looks of it, they were definitely at least over 10,000 years of maturity! In fact, it was very possible for them to be several tens of thousand years old!
Her own grandpa Miao Jing Yun only had one stalk of this tea herb on his table. But that tea herb was only a faint greenish white, and was at most five, six thousand years old. However, it was already treated like a priceless treasure by her grandfather, and no one in the Miao Family was allowed to touch it!
But here, there were over nine stalks at the same time! Furthermore, all of them were the kind with maturity of over tens of thousands of years!
This Evil Monarch... Miao Xiao Miao was already unclear of what she should use to describe him... the words rich and overbearing were already greatly insufficient! As for saying that he had wealth enough to rival a country... that was vastly overestimating the wealth of the countries in this world...
Perhaps only the words ‘unprecedented in ages old and present’ could barely suffice to describe him...
In this moment, Miao Xiao Miao had a strange feeling as if she were in a dream.
However, Qiao Ying beside her was even more shocked than her. Although the simple and inexperienced her did not know about the Night Illumination Pearls, nor did she recognize the Ancient Tea Fragrance Herbs, but the four strangely shaped ginseng by the window sills had caused her to be completely stunned!
There was a faint layer of mist lingering around these four ginsengs as the sun shone on them, causing one to be unable to see them clearly. Moreover, the ginsengs were continuously shifting forms inside the mist, sometimes appearing long and thin, and sometimes rough and round. At moments, they would morph into a human face, or change into all kinds of shapes and creatures...
They did not seem to have a fixed shape! At one moment, they looked one way, but with the blink of an eye, they would transform into a completely different form again...
Could this be...
The Yin Spirit Ginseng!
The legendary heavenly treasure!
Qiao Ying directly felt a faint feeling overcoming her!
And from the looks of it, these were Superb Grade Yin Spirit Ginseng that had already formed their own ‘atmosphere’. Because a Yin Spirit Ginseng that hadn’t formed its own atmosphere could not change forms as it wished. There needed to be some time before it could change into another form. Seeing how these ginsengs could change their forms at anytime, it was obvious that they had already reached that level...
As per its namesake, the Yin Spirit Ginseng was not something that normal humans could use. Even if one used it, there would not be any effects, apart from having an overload of Yin Qi, greatly harming the essence Qi of the person who consumed it! There was only one usage of the Yin Spirit Ginseng: preventing the soul from being destroyed!
If one were undergoing a deadly Heavenly Tribulation or before participating in a death match, swallowing just a thin slice of this ginseng would ensure that even if their bodies were destroyed or they were blasted by heavenly lightning, they would not truly have their souls destroyed. Instead, it would guarantee that they could escape with an intact soul! Whether one chose to be reborn as a Holy Infant, or return to the wheels of samsara to reincarnate, they would be able to retain their memories perfectly. Besides that, they would be able to take a third of their cultivation with them!
The most important thing was that it would not affect the matters of their next life at all... There would even be a most basic guarantee: their natural talents would not be lower than their current life’s!
To those peak level experts, this was a treasure that they did not even dare to imagine in their dreams! The preciousness and value of these things was even higher than the Seven Colored Holy Fruits and the Exquisite Lotus!
One had to know, that even if one were reborn as a Holy Infant, it was impossible to take away even a single bit of cultivation. At best, they would only be able to retain their memories. Furthermore, the strength of a person’s soul would be diminished by at least 70 percent after forcibly stealing the body of an infant from another soul! But this Yin Spirit Ginseng could ensure that there would be no loss in the process, and they could even retain a third of their original cultivation strength!
Regardless of the realm!
If the Heaven Saint Palace had such a precious treasure like the Yin Spirit Ginseng, the many Seniors that had been sacrificed in the War for Seizing the Heavens throughout the years, would all be able to revive with this method, living on for hundreds of thousands of years!
... This was a treasure that went against the heavens!
And Jun Mo Xie actually had four of them here! And from the looks of it, all of them were 10,000 years old!
Qiao Ying only felt her heart thumping heavily, and her mouth had become completely parched and numb.
The only thing she couldn’t understand was that the legendary Yin Spirit Ginseng were lifeforms that were of an extreme Yin nature. They could not be placed under the sun; otherwise, they would turn into a puff of smoke and disappear. However, Jun Mo Xie had placed them directly on the window sill to bask in the sun. There was a possibility that that brat Jun Mo Xie had the treasures, but could not recognize the treasure and didn’t know how precious they were. However, the Yin Spirit Ginseng were clearly not showing any strange reactions even though they were sitting under the sun. What was the meaning of this? Could it be that she had made a mistake in her judgement, and this was not the legendary Yin Spirit Ginseng? However, were there any other kinds of ginseng that had the same unique traits?
The moment they stepped through the door, the two girls had sunk into a state of their own shock. They didn’t even hear Guan Qing Han calling them at all. The both of them just stood there in a faint and dumbstruck manner, their mouths hanging wide open speechlessly.
Soon, a series of flurried footsteps rang out at the door, and an cutesy voice rang out. “Hurry hurry, look at those two great beauties! I heard that that fellow Jun Mo Xie was completely enchanted by the two of them, losing all his wits. Let’s take a look and see just what kind of peerless beauties they are...”
Another voice rang out: “Even little sister Xiao Yi is jealous? Wahaha, so you’re beginning to feel the danger now too eh...”
