Chapter 108: Essences and Pills

Nighttime finally came and because I bit a lot of rabid humans and humans today, I managed to complete my daily quest. However, I don't think that I would be able to finish my daily quests since it makes me guilty thinking that I bit humans and turned them into rabid humans.

To humans in the Ziyou Shelter, biting them was fine since they are wicked people who would sacrifice children to a mere tree. That's why if I was left with no choice, I'd rather suffer a severe punishment than go around biting people.

In any case, right now, I'm still with Liu Zhi and the others since I really don't have lodging in Red Sea Shelter. That's why I had no choice but to spend the night in their headquarters. It was just a regular house with a few rooms for the party members. It wasn't exactly a huge house but it provided a roof over our heads so I didn't bother complaining.

Although, I'd say, is this how a group of cultivators lives now? Before, if you were a cultivator, you'd get to live a comfortable life as long as you have the strength.

Right now, they get to live in a small house like this and it's probably the most luxurious living quarters in this Shelter.

And Wu Yan and Yang Mei Mei still have this ominous aura leaking from their bodies as they sat across me. For some reason, they've been staring at each other for a few minutes now.

I shook my head as I tried to focus on the things at hand. Grabbing both my storage ring in my System Inventory (I put them there before so I wouldn't lose them when I'm in the middle of a fight or an escape), I laid both storage rings on the table and tried to look into them. There were a plethora of things inside but I couldn't really tell every single item in it. That's why I decided to just take everything out and have a look at each and every item.

A brief shining light illuminated my Silverwing Ring, and my Original Storage Ring and suddenly, mountains upon mountains of essences, pills, herbs, legendary artifacts, and items used for cultivation poured out from both Rings, there were simply too much that I decided to stop activating both rings.

"Whoa!" Liu Zhi exclaimed as the whole house was filled with high-grade items and materials. In the end, I decided to keep all the items and artifacts in my storage rings and just summoned the highest-grade pills, essences, and cultivation technique for everyone to choose from. Of course, there were still too much so I just hand-picked the best of the best. And even those still filled half of the house.

"Yong Rui, where did you get all these?!" Liu Zhi asked as his eyes widened in amazement. He wasn't the only one surprised about the items I showed them. Even Blade, who usually doesn't show much expression on his face, had his jaws touching the floor in surprise.

Wu Yan and Yang Mei Mei wore the same astonished expression as well.

"These are all my items back from the past. I never really accessed my storage rings so I never thought that there will be items such as these inside them."  I continued. Well, it was just a small portion of the treasures I kept but they already looked overjoyed.

The rest of my items and materials would all go to the Tang Shelter. Of course, my Sect comes first before anything else.

But still, I'm wholly grateful for all the help Red Sea Shelter gave me so if I could do anything to help them, I would do it. Just... I won't help them too much.

"What?! These Are Immortal Realm Essences? And aren't these the Red Sun Pills? Also these? These are the Thundercloud Sky Cultivation Technique and the Rising Phoenix... all these are priceless treasures from the past!" Liu Zhi exclaimed.

"Take your pick. The rest would be my present to Shen Rong." I continued, waving my hand as I portrayed my generosity.

Liu Zhi was quick to get three Red Sun Pills and a Few Immortal Realm Essences to ensure that he would have solid cultivation in the Immortal Realm in the future. As for Blade, he got a few High-Grade Cultivation Techniques and some Essences. Wu Yan picked out the Thundercloud Sky Cultivation Technique. I was surprised that she picked it out since it was the best cultivation technique for her.

Ever since I woke up a few weeks ago, I realized that most of the people right now didn't have any cultivation techniques. Well, some practiced a few cultivation techniques like the Shelter Leader of Ziyou Shelter and I'm sure Shen Rong also had a cultivation technique with him as well. However, a majority of the people didn't have access to such luxury and as such, the human race couldn't really completely defeat the rabid humans who were far superior in terms of strength and versatility.

That's why, with this, I had hoped that it would at least help them in their cultivation. Only those who had reached the Immortal Realm five years ago were the ones who probably have a cultivation technique with them.

"I see you picked out the Thundercloud Sky Technique." I pointed out as I approached Wu Yan. "Since you're a scout, that's the best cultivation technique for you. Now that we're on the topic, what's your element again?"

"I control the ice element... although, I'm still not that proficient at it. That's why I never used it in battles." Wu Yan said. She never used her element when she was traveling with me so I didn't know.

"How about you, Liu Zhi? Blade?"

"I control the Wind Element." Liu Zhi answered. "Just like Wu Yan, I'm still not proficient at it. The lack of materials and books about elements are really hindering us."

"As for me, I control the Fire Element." Blade said.

"Oh, we have the same element?" Luo Zehn commented.

"Yong Rui, how about me? What cultivation technique should I get?" Yang Mei Mei excitedly asked.

"Relax. Yang Mei Mei, you don't have to worry about your cultivation technique yet." I told her. "Because of your hastiness, you sped up your cultivation, right? Now, I want you to focus on solidifying your foundation by condensing your Qi Cores and continuously absorbing Qi Energy so you can stabilize it. That way, you will have a more solid Qi Core when you attempt a breakthrough."

"As for you, Blade, Wu Yan, take these Essences. These are high-grade Fire Dust Essence and Frozen Mist Essence. They are extremely compatible with your elements so it would greatly help your cultivation. Blade, you can also take the Rising Phoenix Cultivation Technique, it will extremely boost your literal firepower."

"And these are for you, Liu Zhi. These are Windbreak Essences. Just like what I gave to Blade and Wu Yan, it will extremely help you in harnessing your wind element." I continued. There was a lot of information to give them so I was trying so hard to take my time explaining it. Well, it looks like they understood everything I said.

"All of you do know how to consume Essences, right? Open the bottle and try to absorb as much as you can at once. And then, if you can't take it anymore, start refining the essence into Qi Energy. As for the Cultivation Techniques, it's best if you try to understand the intent of the creator of the technique first before trying to practice it. The more understanding you have, the better and faster you get to cultivate."

"Thank you so much, Yong Rui." Liu Zhi, Blade, and Wu Yan said as they cupped their hands. They were extremely grateful but they never got more than enough for themselves.

Although I displayed a lot of high-grade essences and pills, they just took what's enough for them. It might not be obvious but they were still disciplined enough to not abuse my generosity. They really are respectable party members.

"Also! As for the hundreds of High-Grade essences and Pills left, here, can you please give them to Shen Rong. It's been so long since you've welcomed me to your shelter but I haven't found the time to give him some offerings. I'll try to give some more in the future but I hope my contribution could at least help your shelter so you can be ready if an attack happens."

"Yong Rui, how about me?" Yang Mei Mei asked but Luo Zehn immediately grabbed her by the wrist and whispered something at her. After a few seconds of internalizing what Luo Zehn said to her, she nodded and she kept quiet.

I more or less guessed what Luo Zehn told her so I didn't bring it up. Who would've thought that Luo Zehn was still maturing even at his age. I could tell that he thought a lot about what to say in the current situation— which saved me the possibility of jealousy erupting amongst the group.
