Chapter 54: A Garden of Spiritual Flowers in Full Bloom

Jiang Yingxue poured another bowl for Xiao Zhao and said, "Drink this one slowly."

This time, Xiao Zhao patiently drank it slowly. After a minute, it said, "Sister, this time, besides being sweet, I also got this weird feeling, like something is flowing inside my body."

Jiang Yingxue noticed a peculiar strand of energy flowing through her body when she took her second sip. Since it was harmless, could it actually be beneficial?

She decided to test it with her own body. As the strand of energy was about to leave, she first tried to trap it using her spiritual power, but it easily slipped through the spiritual barrier and escaped.

"What about trying spiritual sense?" A thought struck Jiang Yingxue. The next time the immortal brew's energy entered her body, she used her spiritual sense to trap it, and this time she succeeded.

She used her magic to refine it, and after refining, she was delighted to discover that this strand of energy was beneficial to the soul.

It turned out that besides the known effects of the Heavenly Grade Immortal Brew Honey, such as increasing a hundred years of cultivation, beautifying the skin, and nourishing the body, it also had a special effect—nourishing the soul.

Jiang Yingxue said to Xiao Zhao, "Xiao Zhao, that's a strand of energy beneficial to the soul. Use your spiritual sense and see if you can refine it."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhao closed its eyes.

Five minutes later, it opened its eyes, shook its head, and said, "Sister, I can't refine it."

Jiang Yingxue was slightly surprised. She walked over to Xiao Zhao, gently placed her hand on its head, and said, "Try again."

Xiao Zhao did as told, but it still couldn't absorb it. The immortal brew's energy slipped through its spiritual sense and escaped.

Jiang Yingxue guessed it was likely due to insufficient spiritual sense strength. In the cultivation world, Heavenly Grade Immortal Brew Honey had always been very popular among young female cultivators and children.

But there was never any record or rumor in books or real life that Heavenly Grade Immortal Brew Honey was beneficial to the soul. The reason was probably that the cultivators who wrote the books never tried to refine the immortal brew's energy with their spiritual sense. After all, in the cultivation world she came from, cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage had to undergo tribulations to ascend to the upper realm later on. Young female cultivators and children, with their weaker spiritual sense, were even less likely to do so.

She poured another bowl of water for Xiao Zhao and said, "Xiao Zhao, it's normal that you can't refine it at your age. Heavenly Grade Immortal Brew Honey beautifies the skin. Drink a few more bowls, and when you transform in the future, you'll definitely be the most beautiful cub of the Bifang clan."

"Yes! I want to be the most beautiful cub of the Bifang clan! The most beautiful Bifang Bird!" Xiao Zhao tilted its head back and drank bowl after bowl, gulping them down.

The clock struck 2 p.m.

"Ding ding ding~"

Lu Caiyun, who had just finished her nap, saw the two of them at the dining table and asked with a smile, "What are you two drinking?"

Jiang Yingxue turned around and said, "Grandma, come over quickly and have a bowl of honey water."

Watching her grandma finish a bowl of Heavenly Grade Immortal Brew Honey water, she asked with a smile, "How is it?"

Lu Caiyun nodded with satisfaction, "The taste is excellent. Another bowl, please. Where did you get the honey? Did you go into the mountains and poke a beehive?"

Jiang Yingxue playfully blinked her eyes, "Hehe, I did poke a beehive, but not in the mountains. Grandma, let me refill your bowl." The honey from the mountains couldn't compare to this Heavenly Grade Immortal Brew Honey. Even diluted, its fragrance was still enticingly rich and sweet.

Just as she finished refilling both elders' bowls with honey water, Jiang Xianzheng walked back from the yard and said, "A Yun, Ying Xue, the flowers in the yard have bloomed, and some are still blooming."

This was the first time Jiang Xianzheng had seen flowers blooming right before his eyes. These flowers seemed to have been pressed on a fast-forward button—absurd but beautiful.

"Ah? The flowers have bloomed?" Lu Caiyun looked surprised. She had gone to the yard to wash a rag before her nap, and the flowers in the garden hadn't bloomed then. How could such a strange thing happen? "Let me go see."

The whole family came to the front yard, and what greeted their eyes was a fantastical, mysterious, and beautiful scene of various Spiritual Flowers in the garden competing to bloom. The garden was filled with a riot of colors—purple, pink, yellow, transparent, and more. Each spiritual flower was so delicate and vibrant, attracting a group of butterflies to dance gracefully among them, filling the garden with fragrance.

It was truly a visual feast.

"So beautiful!" Lu Caiyun couldn't help but exclaim. She never dreamed that one day her yard would be filled with the legendary beautiful spiritual flowers. It was simply too beautiful.

Jiang Xianzheng also wore a happy smile on his face. He looked at his granddaughter and said, "Ying Xue, this is your handiwork, isn't it?"

With such an absurd blooming method, could it be that her granddaughter used her own spiritual power and cultivation to make it happen? The moment Lu Caiyun thought of this possibility, a feeling of tension rose in her heart. She looked at Jiang Yingxue with concern and asked, "Child, did you use your own spiritual power to make these flowers bloom?"

Jiang Yingxue smiled and said, "No, Grandma, you have to believe me. I promised you before that I wouldn't use my own spiritual power, and I won't. You have to trust me."

"It was because I sprayed Spiritual Plant growth accelerator in the garden at noon. This spiritual liquid can make spiritual plants grow quickly."

"I sprayed it at noon. I thought they would bloom tomorrow morning, but I didn't expect them to bloom so early."

Over the past few days, the elderly couple had gained a basic understanding of the cultivation world. They had also read about Spiritual Plant growth accelerators in books. However, seeing the sudden blooming of a garden full of spiritual flowers with their own eyes still stirred excitement. But having experienced many exciting things, their expressions could now remain very calm.

"This growth accelerator is used well!" After learning that Jiang Yingxue hadn't achieved this by depleting her own spiritual power, Lu Caiyun looked at the yard full of flowers with a happy smile. "Old Jiang, look how beautifully these spiritual flowers have bloomed. It's like a dream. Ying Xue, what was the effect of this pink flower again?"

"This is the Dream Butterfly Flower. It helps with sleep." Jiang Yingxue took a pair of scissors from the woodshed and then brought two vases from the house.

With the sound of "snip snip" from the scissors, beautiful spiritual flowers, along with their branches and leaves, were cut.

For each vase, Jiang Yingxue arranged 8 flowers: 6 Dream Butterfly Flowers, 1 Spirit Thorn Flower, and 1 Beipu Crystal Flower.

Then she poured half a vase of pure spiritual spring water into each vase, which could keep these spiritual flowers from withering for a month. Of course, well water could also preserve them, but the preservation time would be two-thirds shorter.

"Grandpa, Grandma, put this vase on your bedside table. That way, you can sleep well every night."

"It smells wonderful!" Lu Caiyun took the vase handed to her by Jiang Yingxue, lowered her head, and took a deep breath among the spiritual flowers. "I'll take it back to my room and put it there right now!"

Looking at the garden full of spiritual flowers and his smiling granddaughter, Jiang Xianzheng's heart was filled with pride. This garden full of spiritual flowers was planted by his granddaughter, the child of his own daughter.

How fortunate he was to have such a descendant!

Since Jiang Yingxue returned home, they had basically not suffered from insomnia. They slept soundly until dawn, and their happiness index had skyrocketed.

Jiang Xianzheng felt lucky and proud that he had supported his daughter in keeping this child back then.
