"Ancestor, everyone, please come up and rest a while."
Bai Yi's voice echoed from the mountaintop. Swords rang out, and streaks of sword light paved a road like bricks and stones, leading straight to the summit to welcome everyone up.
The sword light dispersed. On a blue-green platform beneath a tree, Bai Yi sat cross-legged, wisps of sword intent taking tangible sword forms around him before slowly dissipating as everyone arrived.
"Greetings, True Lord Bai!"
"No need for such formalities. I'll need you all to put in more effort for this exhibition."
Bai Yi rose with a smile and swept his fingers through the air. Spirit fruits and medicinal pills flew out of the void, landing in the hands of the researchers.
"Please accept these small welcoming gifts."
"You'll probably need to stay for quite some time after the exhibition, too. I'll have someone deliver cultivation resources directly to you."
Seeing the excitement on everyone's faces as they received the spirit fruits and pills, Bai Yi could not help feeling a surge of emotion.
With his current standing, as long as he was not pouring them out by the bucketful, no one would say much about these third- and fourth-tier pills, which were still exceptionally precious to the Immortal Alliance.
Likewise, given his reserves of origin power, very few pills of the same tier could still have any effect on him.
Fifth-tier pills corresponding to the Spirit Transformation realm, however, were not so easy to obtain in large quantities.
"I've already explained the exhibition to my master."
"Once the sermon ends, the Immortal Alliance can have two days to present its work to all the visiting sects, lineages, and rogue cultivators."
"Thank you for your efforts."
Feng Weiyi hesitated for a moment, but those were the only words he said.
