Ye Yun held the Bead of Focus, briefly examining it before casually tossing it to Mu Qing with a faint smile.

In his opinion, this Bead of Focus was utter rubbish—merely an Emperor Level Lower Grade, only capable of providing minor cultivation assistance for mental clarity and focus. It was practically useless.

He considered giving Mu Qing an artifact but decided against it. After all, Mu Qing had just joined the Dragon God Sect and hadn't made any significant contributions yet, so it wasn't appropriate to give her an artifact now. Although Ye Yun's storage was filled with countless artifacts, he disliked distributing them willy-nilly. Even for the three disciples of the Dragon God Sect, he had only given each of them a sword and a robe, nothing more.

Having lived two lives, Ye Yun deeply understood the weaknesses of human nature. Some things are far more meaningful when earned through one's own efforts. If treasures were given away freely, it would be no different from raising a wastrel.

"It's repaired this quickly?"

Mu Qing accepted the Bead of Focus, her face full of surprise, her watery eyes brightening.

The Bead of Focus in her hand looked brand new, emanating a cool, refreshing aura that calmed her mind and spirit.

This aura was countless times stronger than before.

Mu Qing was inwardly shaken.

What kind of treasure is this Bronze Ancient Box? In just two or three breaths, a Lower level of the heavenly grade artifact was restored to its original peak condition. This is simply incredible! I've lived for so long, yet I've never heard of such a powerful artifact for repairing treasures on the Cangnan Continent.

What Mu Qing didn't know was...

It wasn't just the Cangnan Continent that lacked such a treasure; even the Divine Land didn't have one!

In the Divine Land, repairing artifacts required a Refining Master to use various materials and formations.

The process was not only complex but also incredibly time-consuming.

It was impossible to repair artifacts as quickly and easily as the Bronze Ancient Box could.

The Bronze Ancient Box had no upper limit.

It wasn't just Emperor Level treasures...

Even Emperor Level and God level items could be quickly and completely repaired within the Bronze Ancient Box.

After repairing the Bead of Focus, Ye Yun waved his hand, and the Bronze Ancient Box returned to his storage.

Then, Ye Yun sat down, closed his eyes, and focused on his cultivation.

The entire carriage once again fell into a state of tranquility.

Mu Qing remained in stunned silence for a long time before her emotions finally calmed.

In the future, if I get the chance, I must visit more auction houses or black markets to find treasures that have degraded in quality. Then I can ask Master to repair them...

As Mu Qing sat down, she began to indulge in these fantasies, her exquisite face repeatedly showing expressions of pleasant surprise.

It would be best if I could find an Emperor Level treasure... If it were restored, I would possess an Emperor artifact!

Thinking this, Mu Qing couldn't help but feel a thrill and shiver slightly.

But she quickly suppressed this thought. An Emperor artifact, even a damaged one, was not something one could easily find. After all, any power that once possessed an Emperor artifact would undoubtedly have a significant heritage and would surely try everything to restore it. The chances of such an item appearing on the market were extremely low.

Just as Mu Qing was lost in her reverie, the Big Black Cat outside the carriage suddenly widened his eyes, a joyful gleam appearing in his gaze.

I've been trying to think of a way to cheer Uncle Ma up.

After pondering for a long time, the Big Black Cat finally came up with a reasonably good idea.

"Uncle Ma, guess what kind of treasure I managed to get this time?"

The Big Black Cat grinned slyly, a fawning smile plastered on his face.

"What treasure could you have? What rare thing could a scruffy little cat like you possibly find?"

The Big Black Horse said, slowly pulling the carriage without even lifting his head.

"Hehe, Uncle Ma, that's not necessarily true,"

The Big Black Cat immediately retrieved a small, transparent glass vial from his storage ring. Inside were two emerald-green tea leaves.

"Uncle Ma, take a look! See if this is worthy of your esteemed gaze?"

The Big Black Cat stood up, holding the small vial aloft with his paw and shaking it a couple of times.

"What is it? Showing off like this."

The Big Black Horse casually turned his head. His eyes immediately fell upon the two vibrant, dew-kissed tea leaves in the small vial.

When his gaze fell upon the tea leaves, he noticed Dao patterns on them, and his eyes widened in astonishment.

These tea leaves are extraordinary!

The Big Black Horse instantly realized these were no ordinary tea leaves.

Seeing the change in Uncle Ma's expression, the Big Black Cat smirked.

He leaped into the air, flew beside the Big Black Horse, opened the small vial, and took out one of the green tea leaves.

"Uncle Ma, this is a type of Immortal Tea that the Old Man once drank. Even though it's been steeped once, its medicinal power is still incredibly potent. Back then, just a whiff made me pass out. I almost died! Thankfully, the Old Man intervened, otherwise you wouldn't be seeing your Little Cat here anymore..."

The Big Black Cat explained with a laugh, his voice trembling slightly by the end.

The sheer potency of the Old Man's Immortal Tea truly terrified me.

"Is that so? This tea is actually that powerful?"

With a mere thought, the Big Black Horse caused the green tea leaf to float up before his eyes. He examined the leaf carefully, growing more astonished the longer he looked.

After inhaling its faint aroma, the Big Black Horse instantly felt two opposing forces—creation and destruction—constantly tearing at each other within his body.

It was like being on a vast ocean brimming with life, yet volcanoes continuously erupted from the seabed, transforming the entire surface into a terrifying, apocalyptic scene.

The Big Black Horse was, after all, a great demon of the Eternity Realm and possessed the Dragon Clan Bloodline. He could still suppress the changes in his body caused by that tiny wisp of the tea's fragrance.

While suppressing and refining it, an expression of blissful intoxication appeared on his face.

"WAH WAH, this is truly excellent! This tea leaf is practically an Immortal Tea!"

The Big Black Horse became excited.

After refining the energy from that wisp of fragrance, he felt his cultivation base seemed to have improved by a fraction.

"Uncle Ma, this tea leaf is my gift of respect to you."

The Big Black Cat chuckled.

Seeing Uncle Ma excited, he also felt happy and put the small vial away.

He had only two Immortal Tea leaves in total.

Now, having given one to Uncle Ma, he was left with only one.

The Big Black Horse's expression softened. He raised his hoof, which transformed into a large hand, and gently patted the Big Black Cat's head a couple of times, praising, "Good, Little Cat. Uncle Ma hasn't doted on you in vain. You remembered to save something good for Uncle Ma. Truly excellent!"

"But of course, Uncle Ma! We're close!"

The Big Black Cat chuckled, then turned and flew back.

He landed in front of Kitty, his expression somewhat fierce.

"Big Brother, what are you doing?"

Seeing the Big Black Cat's fierce expression, Kitty was instantly frightened, her heart pounding.

"I say, Kitty, your cultivation base is so low. It's too extravagant for you to hoard two Immortal Tea leaves. Why not offer one to Uncle Ma as a sign of respect too?"

Seeing Kitty avoid his gaze, the Big Black Cat's expression instantly changed, becoming amiable and friendly as he said with a smile.

"You want my Immortal Tea?"

Hearing this, Kitty was on the verge of tears.

Originally, there were four Immortal Tea leaves left in the bowl after the Old Man finished drinking. Two of them were given to the Big Black Cat back at Wu Kun Mountain.

Who would have thought that I wouldn't even be able to keep the remaining two...
