Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

After serving tea and fruit platters to everyone, Zi Ling secretly moved to Huang Long's side, then mysteriously took out a jade bottle and gently placed it on the jade table in front of Huang Long.

"Sir, this is something I prepared especially for you."

Huang Long, smelling the fragrance and Daoist aura emanating from the jade bottle, already knew what it contained. However, he feigned surprise and said to Zi Ling:

"Oh? It was specially prepared for me? Is it the new wine brewed by your two little lackeys?" Huang Long glanced at Bai Xiao and Bai Hong behind Zi Ling.

Zi Ling turned around and glared at Bai Xiao and Bai Hong, startling the two little ones who quickly shook their heads and waved their hands, saying, "No...! No! It wasn't us...!"

Huang Long gently patted Zi Ling's head, turning it around, and said, "Alright, don't scare them both. Open it yourself and let me see what this thing is that makes you so mysterious."

Upon hearing Huang Long's words, Zi Ling smiled again, picked up the jade bottle in front of Huang Long, and gently opened the lid.

"Sir, look, this is the honey I made; I call it wildflower honey!"

In an instant, a unique floral fragrance wafted from the bottle, permeating the Five Elements Courtyard and completely masking the aroma of the Enlightenment Tea and the various spiritual fruits.

In that instant when the fragrance of flowers filled the air, everyone present seemed to be standing in the middle of an endless sea of ​​flowers, like the rising sun, with hundreds of flowers just beginning to bloom, and countless fragrances intertwined together.

The fragrance is clear and full. Upon closer inspection, Huanglong can still detect a hint of vibrant ginseng fruit and a faint scent of blood dates...!

Huanglong could even smell a faint fragrance of the Enlightenment Tea leaves. Among all the spiritual roots in the entire Five Elements Grotto Heaven, there was only one Heavenly Spirit Pepper that Huanglong could not smell.

The others present were captivated by the fragrance.

"It smells so good! The fragrance makes me feel like I'm surrounded by a sea of ​​flowers!"

"Moreover, this fragrance can accelerate the circulation of one's magical power and make one's understanding of the laws clearer. This feeling is somewhat similar to Enlightenment Tea?"

"..."

Sitting next to Huang Long, Xuan Du looked at everyone's intoxicated expressions and proudly introduced, "This is a hundred-flower honey made from the pollen of many spiritual roots from Senior Brother Huang Long's dojo. Of course it's fragrant, and its effects are top-notch."

Although Xuandu spoke up to explain in detail, Huanglong could detect a hint of jealousy in his voice.

Huang Long turned to look at Xuan Du, only to find Xuan Du staring straight at Zi Ling, his tone slightly bitter: "Little Zi Ling! This is the one I taught you to brew with the blend of a hundred flowers."

"Hmm, you brewed it, but you didn't tell me. As expected, you only have your master in your heart." Xuan Du said, covering his face with his sleeve and pretending to be heartbroken and in tears.

Seeing Xuandu's heartbroken expression, Ziling's face showed a hint of panic. She quickly took out the same bottle as the one in front of Huanglong and placed it in front of Xuandu, saying in a slightly nervous and apologetic tone:

"Second Master, it's not what you think. I just brewed it myself. Look, I've prepared it for you."

Seeing that he had a share, Xuandu happily took the jade bottle in his hand and said, "I knew Ziling still cared about me. How could it be only my senior brother and not me?"

Huang Long looked at Zi Ling and Xuan Du with a strange expression, feeling as if his home had been raided.

Huang Long resealed the bottle of wildflower honey in front of him, then glanced at Xuan Du and said, "Xuan Du, you were also involved in brewing this wildflower honey?"

Xuandu then realized that there were still a group of fellow disciples present, and instantly reverted to his usual serene, ethereal demeanor.

Xuan Du glanced at Zi Ling, ignoring the warning look on her face, and said to Huang Long:

"Senior brother, you are away from home most of the time, and even when you return to Kunlun, you spend most of your time in seclusion. This little girl is very worried about you and wants to help you, so she is working exceptionally hard in her cultivation. Unfortunately, her background and comprehension are limited, so her progress in cultivation is quite slow."

"Fortunately, she has a good talent: she can gather the essence of a hundred flowers to brew a more effective spiritual honey."

"Moreover, the better the spirit honey produced, the faster this little guy's cultivation will improve."

"In order to help you, that little fellow Zi Ling brewed countless amounts of spiritual honey. However, your cultivation progress is too fast, while her cultivation level is too low, so the spiritual honey she brewed is basically ineffective for you."

"I only learned about this by chance when I was chatting with Ziling. I jokingly told Ziling that if we wanted to brew a spiritual honey that would be effective for you, senior brother, we could only use the pollen produced by the acquired spiritual roots in this dojo. I said that you would definitely be able to use the spiritual honey that we brewed."

"After that, the little guy put all his attention into each and every spiritual root, watering them with spiritual spring water and conditioning the earth's energy day and night, hoping that these spiritual roots would bloom as soon as possible."

"However, Zi Ling's cultivation level is still too low. The spiritual energy and Dao charm contained in these spiritual roots are all different. I don't know how many times she has failed."

"I couldn't bear to see her so disappointed, so I worked with her to study the proportions of these spiritual root pollens, and how to brew the best spiritual honey with her cultivation level."

"So, senior brother, I also deserve some credit for the spiritual honey in front of you. Of course, the biggest contributor is Zi Ling."

Hearing Xuandu recount the whole story, Huanglong looked at Ziling with some heartache and gently patted her head: "Thank you for your hard work. Master really likes this gift!"

Upon receiving Huang Long's praise, Zi Ling was so happy she almost jumped for joy, saying to Huang Long, "Master, it's no trouble at all. Look, Master, I'm already a Golden Immortal now."

Sensing the aura emanating from Zi Ling, which indicated a solid foundation and not a rash advancement, Huang Long nodded in satisfaction and praised her generously, "Excellent! Excellent! As expected of our Five Elements Grotto-Heaven's chief steward, you make me very proud!"

"With this multifloral honey, our temple has gained another major industry!"

Huang Long pointed his hand, and six more tables appeared at the end of the rows of seats. He then said to Zi Ling, "Today, I'm rewarding you by having you celebrate with us my breakthrough to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm."

"Go get the rest yourself."

Zi Ling then skipped and hopped along with a few followers, carrying pots of Enlightenment Tea and Spirit Fruits.
