Senior Sisters, I Don’t Want To Work Hard Anymore

Chapter 13: Arena of Asura?

Shadow Moon Peak.

Halfway up the mountain, covered by clouds and mist, there is a not-so-large garden filled with various exotic spiritual fruits and plants from this time and space. Not only is it protected by formations and restrictions, but it is also meticulously cared for by the disciples.

The garden is always fragrant and radiant, and for ordinary people, any of the spiritual fruits or melons here have miraculous effects of curing diseases, promoting health, and prolonging life. If they were to be sold outside, they would be highly sought after by the emperors and officials of the secular dynasty.

On the path, Qin Muling and Qi Yalan whispered to each other as they walked side by side.

Their outfits were exactly the same, except Qin Muling's was pure white while Qi Yalan's was pitch black. In the terminology of their past life, they were dressed as a couple.

This garden was arranged by Qi Yalan herself when she first became a core disciple. After years of management and care, some of the rare and long-lived spiritual fruits and plants have reached a usable state. Besides satisfying her own needs, sometimes her close senior and junior sisters would come here to enjoy the delicacies.

Core disciples and elders with advanced cultivation usually replenish their consumption with pills or directly absorb and refine the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. However, this does not mean that they do not need certain worldly pleasures, such as satisfying their appetite.

A hundred steps away, verdant vines came into view. On them were clusters of finger-sized, crystal-clear, pale pink fruits, emitting a rich and fragrant aroma that made one's mouth water.

"...Junior Brother, these grapes are a tribute sent by the Xuanlin Empire in the mortal world. They taste really good. Why don't you try them?" Qi Yalan picked the largest cluster and handed it to Qin Muling.

Qin Muling took it, picked two and put them in his mouth. As he lightly bit down, the sweet and refreshing juice instantly filled his mouth. The indescribable exquisite taste made him feel extremely comfortable all over.

"How is it?" Qi Yalan tilted her head and looked at him, a rare smile appearing in her cold and beautiful eyes.

"It's really good!" Qin Muling nodded in satisfaction. There was no doubt that Senior Sister Three's grapes were exceptional, far superior to ordinary fruits. He would have to come here often in the future.

"For this kind of grape, it's best to savor it for a while. The taste will be even better," Qi Yalan smiled and said, "If you like it, you can come here to eat every day. I'll give you the restriction token for this garden, so you can eat as much as you want."

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Qin Muling smiled.

Several attending disciples and outer sect disciples watched from a distance, unable to hide their astonishment. The cultivation of these spiritual grapes was not easy, and they were Senior Sister Three's favorite snack. Each one was precious, and even other senior sisters from different peaks found it difficult to obtain them.

Who is this newly emerged young man? How dare he eat Senior Sister Three's grapes? And it seems like Senior Sister Three doesn't mind at all, and even looks happy... Is this real?

They had been working and serving on Shadow Moon Peak for quite some time and had already become familiar with Qi Yalan's cold and beautiful temperament. She never showed any favoritism to anyone, and there had never been any opposite-sex visitors. However, since Qin Muling appeared, many of their previous understandings had been overturned.

"Um... Junior Brother, now that your cultivation has stabilized, has your ability in that aspect also improved? Can you let me see?" Qi Yalan hesitated for a moment before whispering softly.

Qin Muling readily agreed, "Of course, right here?"

"Let's go to the medicinal garden!"

Qi Yalan looked around and found that her junior brother's special ability was too incredible. She had only learned about it from her senior sister a few days ago. It was impossible to use it in crowded places.

After a moment, the two of them were already in the medicine garden of Shadow Moon Peak. All the disciples on duty were sent away, and the formation inside and outside was activated to seal it off.

Qin Muling didn't say much either. He slowly activated the spiritual power in his body, and a light green aura spread out gracefully, covering the entire medicine garden. Bright starlight fell, silently penetrating into the herbs.

After dozens of breaths, a dazzling glow filled Qi Yalan's vision. The fragrance of plants filled the space, and the subtle essence of the green and purple spirit herbs and spirit trees rose up, gathering into a large purple cloud that flowed into Qin Muling's body like converging rivers.

After a while, the chaotic spiritual energy, which was difficult to discern with divine sense, returned and silently transformed and enhanced their innate talents.

Qi Yalan's medicine garden was smaller in scale than the one on Phoenix Melody Peak, but after Qin Muling broke through the Profound Comprehension Realm, his power far surpassed the Qi Refining Realm. Therefore, the effect of cultivation had also qualitatively improved. This special ability could be used twice a day, and its range had doubled, allowing him to take care of two medicine gardens at the same time.

When Qin Muling finished, Qi Yalan casually took a few herbs to investigate and easily came to a conclusion: when these herbs regained their vitality, they would at least increase their medicinal power by about ten years.

Once every three days, after a year, it meant that all the herbs here would have increased their medicinal power by over a thousand years, reaching the level of Spirit Medicine.

By then, the total value of all the Spirit Medicine in the medicine garden would be an astonishing number. Even for Qi Yalan, it would be a considerable fortune.

Suppressing her shock, Qi Yalan asked in a low voice, "Junior brother, can your talent ability be further improved? When your cultivation level approaches mine in the future, won't you be able to mass-produce Holy Medicine?"

Qin Muling thought carefully and cautiously replied, "I'm not sure right now, but I don't rule out that possibility."

According to the conventions of this era, herbs with a growth period of less than a hundred years could only be considered ordinary medicine, which was used by ordinary people in the mortal world. Those reaching a hundred years could be called Old Medicine. Only those growing for over a thousand years belonged to the true Spirit Medicine category, which was the most in-demand resource for cultivators.

Herbs that grew for over ten thousand years were called Holy Medicine. They were rare resources indispensable for high-level cultivators to refine pills above the genuine level. If they exceeded a hundred thousand years and fell into the category of Divine Medicine, they would be scarce even in those super sects with long-standing traditions and amazing heritage. They were strategic resources that were hard to come by and had to be strictly limited in use.

As for Heavenly Medicine, which had a lifespan of over a million years, it had always been a mythical legend. Even those ancient relics that had lived for a long time had never seen it. Perhaps it had appeared in the ancient era of the immortal path, but in this era, it was unimaginable.

"Junior brother..."

Qi Yalan's eyes shimmered with a ripple of emotion. Her cold tone became slightly eager, "Your senior sister is busy with daily affairs, and Phoenix Melody Peak is also crowded. It's inconvenient for you to live there. How about... moving to Shadow Moon Peak? It would be much quieter for cultivation."

Qin Muling looked at her deeply and said, "I don't have the final say in this matter. You have to discuss it with senior sister."

It was clear what the third senior sister's intentions were. She wanted to have him all to herself, right? But Xue Bingxuan, as the first saintess of the sect and the future sect master, was not someone to be underestimated.

As for Qin Muling's own opinion? Currently, no one cared about it. With the terrifying cultivation of the two senior sisters, they could easily defeat him with a flick of their fingers. What else could he say?

Qi Yalan smiled ambiguously, "Although that's the case, as long as you make your position clear, I can persuade senior sister to agree to this."

"Instead of waiting, let's go talk to senior sister now."

"What if senior sister doesn't agree?"

"Then we'll have a fight. In terms of fighting skills, I'm not afraid of anyone!"

Qi Yalan confidently hummed and reached out to hold Qin Muling's waist, and they soared into the sky on their flying swords.

Qin Muling couldn't help but cover his face. What would happen if the two senior sisters really fought because of this? Wasn't this a disaster? A battlefield?
