The snowstorm summoned by the Great Power Cultivators of Four Seasons Sect continued to howl.
This sudden cold snap was unusually fierce.
Li Ye, however, just stayed at ho without moving daily.
He neither went out to hunt for that Snow Demon to acquire white crystals, nor did he act as a doctor to "heal" others’ Spirit Plants.
To him, those things were just petty gains.
Since he couldn’t obtain enough white crystals for adventure under the premise of safety and non-conflict, nor could he improve his skills by healing others,
there was no need to waste ti.
He had more important things to do now—
collecting snow water, purifying Spiritual Qi.
The Spiritual Qi contained in the falling snow was exactly what he needed.
Not just Spiritual Qi, but also Flint Fire Crystal Insects and Silver Moon Grass hibernation, along with daily consumption needs.
Such a rare opportunity, he certainly had to collect more.
Although he didn’t know why this cold snap could make Silver Moon Grass begin to gather Moon Liquid Pearl again, he had already brought the Silver Moon Grass out, placing it with Flint Fire Crystal Insects outside.
"It would be nice if so Moon Liquid Pearl could be produced."
Li Ye looked at the re-energized Silver Moon Grass and Flint Fire Crystal Insects, his hands constantly moving, using Spirit Gathering Technique to purify all Spiritual Liquid from the lted snow water.
This process was very arduous.
Because he wanted excellence—he had plenty of Spiritual Water, but such highly pure Spiritual Liquid was very rare.
He constantly used Spirit Gathering Technique, needing almost a stone of snow to produce about three taels.
Fortunately, the snow kept falling relentlessly, and he specifically used an array to speed up the collection of snowflakes, doing his best to gather snow water day and night without attracting external attention.
He could collect about thirty stones of snowflakes a day, and after processing, can produce about ninety taels of Spiritual Liquid a day.
The Spiritual Liquid appeared in a pure blue hue, like the color blended from the convergence of a white-blue sky and deep ocean.
Placed inside a jar, it was extrely beautiful, like capturing and gathering the sky and ocean.
With his knowledge reserves, although he didn’t know what these snows were, they were definitely more important than collecting those Snow Demon’s white crystals—
Moreover, these days, quite a few Snow Demons appeared, only to be dealt with by the beavers and Hungry Bone combining forces.
As ti gradually moved on.
Li Ye beca more adept at using Spirit Gathering Technique.
While earlier he needed to control the flow of Spiritual Power with hand gestures, now he could use it with a casual wave.
The only thing lagging was the Spiritual Qi provided by the Spirit Water Phoenix Eye Lotus being a little insufficient.
No matter how the outside world was in chaos due to the sudden snow, he stayed at ho, thodically dealing with his own affairs.
Just like this.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
Silver Moon Grass helped him produce another 120 pieces of Moon Liquid Pearl, though not as many as before, it was indeed an unexpected joy.
As Li Ye tid it just right to bring Silver Moon Grass and Flint Fire Crystal Insects back into the formation inside the house.
The heavy clouds that had hung for ten days miraculously dispersed rapidly with the striking of the watchman’s bell at the hour.
The bright moonlight poured through the retreating clouds, illuminating the entire Huiya’s marketplace, illuminating the white snow.
With the wind ca the warmth of spring.
It seed like the spring breeze, suppressed for ten days, started to push back, and the snowflakes visibly began to lt, the dissolving snow water emitting a spirit far clearer than before.
It was at this mont that many cultivators realized there was so much Spiritual Power in the snowflakes!
Yet when they noticed, part of the Spiritual Qi in these snowflakes had already been captured by Spirit Plants or Spirit Beasts planted in yards.
So had flowed into wells or springs, but most had seeped into the ground, completely disappearing.
Li Ye stood in the yard and could hear the voices of cultivators—
"Why does the Spiritual Qi in the snow run away like this!"
"Even Spirit Gathering Technique can’t gather it."
"Ah! If I had only collected more snow water at ho earlier!"
These voices were full of vigor, but the regret in their tone couldn’t be concealed as Li Ye listened to their voices, silently turning back into his house.
He looked at the large jar placed inside the house.
Inside, it was fully filled with pure liquid, weighing as much as sixty pounds, which was his harvest after ten days of hard work.
His experints showed that the Spiritual Qi contained in this liquid was quite abundant, several tis more than the purified Spiritual Spring Water.
In addition, the beavers along with those Hungry Bones collected about fifty pieces of white crystal.
In his spare ti, he used Flint Fire to burn, collecting so Pure White Marrow Fluid.
"Indeed, staying at ho is better."
Li Ye nodded in satisfaction, then looked with delight and excitent at the large jar placed in the corner.
The peach branches on it had already blossod, their originally subtle fragrance now fully released.
He took a deep breath.
It was a peculiar peach blossom fragrance blended with the scent of wine, balancing the potentially too spicy taste of wine, leaving only a seductive rich aroma.
"Slls wonderful."
Although Li Ye hadn’t liked drinking before he transmigrated, if it’s this kind of wine, which could be called "Immortal Brew," he felt he could drink so.
So he eagerly walked up to the large jar, reached out and grabbed the central jade-like peach blossom branch, gently pulling—
The entire jar of peach blossom branches dissipated like bubbles along with the removal of the jade blossom branch, leaving only the pink wine liquid inside.
The fragrance instantly beca even richer, and just standing in front of the jar and slling it made him slightly tipsy.
"Squeak~"
Just as he was planning to use the bottles he bought earlier to fill the wine, the sneaky silhouette of the beavers appeared behind him.
Led by the largest beaver, a chain of beavers with round eyes full of longing stared at him.
Even their voices carried hints of persuasion and flattery.
"Do you want to drink too?"
"Squeak!"
As soon as he spoke, the beavers neatly took out small cups made of mud, which glowed with golden halos, contrasting sharply with the rough clay cups.
Qi Fortune Shining Gold!
Li Ye was simply amused, these little guys had even learned to barter.
When he took Qi Fortune Shining Gold before, he specially left so for these creatures so they could also eat a little.
After all, it was the result of their hard work and conviction.
"Alright, co on over."
He didn’t take the beavers’ Shining Gold, instead said: "These will be your reward for your labor."
Generously, he gave each beaver one tael of wine.
"Squeak squeak!"
Looking at the small bowls in front filled with pink wine, the beavers’ eyes glead, imdiately diving in to drink greedily, downing the one tael of wine in re blinks.
Then he watched as the beavers clumped together haphazardly, forming a ball, rolling out of his house, and tumbling around the yard.
Perhaps the courage brought by alcohol, these words seed applicable to the beavers too.
At this mont, they even dared to jump into the pond to play with the Golden Red Dragon Carps, the bolder ones even pulling at the Dragon Carps’ whiskers!
But fortunately, the Golden Red Dragon Carps had beco familiar with these usually hesitant neighbors from Li Ye’s continuous mutterings over ti, not harming them, only nibbling at the remaining wine around the beavers’ mouths.
The scene of Weichuan Beavers tangled with Golden Red Dragon Carps made Li Ye truly helpless, not knowing whether to laugh or be resigned.
He thought if he could learn so drawing skills, wouldn’t this scene be a perfect "Beavers Frolicking with Dragon Carps under the Moon"?
It sure was quite amusing.
