"This truly is excellent tea. Thank you, Clan Leader Ting!"
Li Yan chuckled, then drained the remaining tea in one gulp.
A dark gleam flashed across his face before everything returned to normal.
This time, he gathered all the spiritual tea's medicinal potency within the purple chamber of his dantian, without attempting to refine even a little more of it. Naturally, such spiritual medicine was best refined during seated cultivation. ????
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, your magical power is remarkably pure. Impressive, truly impressive!"
A strange light flashed in the eyes of Ting Bixiao and his two companions. Ting Bixiao then looked Li Yan up and down several more times.
On the other side, Agu Xi also swallowed his spiritual tea in one gulp. A layer of frost immediately covered his dusky yellow skin.
Only after three breaths had passed did Agu Xi exhale. The frost on his body slowly vanished, and he too temporarily suppressed the medicinal potency within the purple chamber of his dantian.
Ting Bixiao was inwardly astonished as well. He had heard about Agu Xi's test results upon returning to the clan, which supposedly showed a profound cultivation base, but he had never seen Agu Xi fight.
Agu Xi's magical power is likewise refined to utmost purity. As expected of someone who fought his way through years of bloodshed, his power has been tempered until it is tougher than fine steel. Its depth even rivals that of some cultivators who formed their cores with pills.
Once Snow-Capped Clarity Tea entered the body, refining it would expel impurities. The most obvious indication was the difference in the breath exhaled.
Agu Xi, for instance, had breathed out a long, pitch-black stream. Apart from the lingering injuries in his body, it contained impurities from his magical power, muscles, and bones.
