Once upon a time, Qi Tian was just a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage in the Cultivation World. Although he couldn’t be considered at the very bottom, he was not far from it. Back then, he racked his brains and traveled everywhere in search of cultivation resources, doing whatever kinds of work necessary. There was a time when he specifically went to Wanjie City to look for a job, and he found this Spirit Milk Ointment while working for the Wanjie Commerce in a small world under their control.

At that time, Qi Tian used the detection function of the Heavenly Dao Engine to sense Spirit Qi, and he discovered a convergence point of Stone Milk Cream underground in the small world. After countless years of accumulation, there was a mountain of Stone Milk Cream, as much as a standard swimming pool. Qi Tian didn’t hesitate to take all the Stone Milk Cream for himself.

This Stone Milk Cream was extremely precious, especially the golden core part at its core that contained a grand energy not weaker than that of top-grade spirit stones. Moreover, the Spirit Qi contained in the Stone Milk Cream was even richer and gentler, making it highly suitable for cultivators to use during critical moments of cultivation, with effects even better than using top-grade spirit stones directly.

Of course, the Stone Milk Cream Qi Tian took out this time was not the best kind, the golden yellow ones. He only brought out the second-best, milky yellow ones. This grade of Stone Milk Cream was already comparable to the top-grade spirit stones, and for a cultivator at the Gold Core Realm, it was just right.

The reason why Qi Tian now called it “Spirit Milk Ointment” instead of continuing to call it “Stone Milk Cream” was, on one hand, to avoid people associating the Stone Milk Cream with his trip to the minor world of Wanjie Commerce, and on the other hand, because this was the common name used in the Cultivation World. Qi Tian saw no need to be different in this matter.

Emperor Bahuang, once the Great Zhao Emperor and a cultivator in the Gold Core Realm, who lived for several hundred years, had a profound understanding of this Spirit Milk Ointment. The moment he opened the porcelain bottle and took a glance, he hurriedly sealed the bottle tight again. But in that brief moment, the Spirit Qi from the Spirit Milk Ointment rushed into his nostrils, and for an instant, Emperor Bahuang felt his very soul tremble, experiencing an extreme sense of comfort. Having just advanced to the Eighth Level of the Gold Core Realm and always feeling somewhat uncomfortable, he suddenly felt relief.

Emperor Bahuang had once, due to a stroke of luck, obtained a small amount of Spirit Milk Ointment no larger than the size of a soybean and it was milky white in color. Both the quantity and quality were far inferior to the small bottle Qi Tian gave him.

Emperor Bahuang could never forget the feeling after using that Spirit Milk Ointment, akin to the comfort, warmth, and safety of being in his mother’s embrace as a child. Since then, Emperor Bahuang had been trying to obtain more Spirit Milk Ointment, but never had the chance to do so.

Now, Qi Tian had directly given him so much high-grade Spirit Milk Ointment. With its help, he was certain that he could fully replenish his deficiencies and secure his footing at the Eighth Level of the Gold Core Realm.

Thinking of this, Emperor Bahuang kept thanking Qi Tian. Qi Tian waved his hand, telling Emperor Bahuang to hurry up and consume it without further delay.

When Emperor Bahuang opened the porcelain bottle, the fragrance of the Spirit Milk Ointment wafted out, and it was not just Emperor Bahuang who smelled it; many others nearby did as well. Ordinary cultivators at the Gold Core Realm neither dared to come over nor felt it proper to do so, but Emperor Jianwu and others wouldn’t feign ignorance at this moment. They all came over ingratiatingly and asked, “Master Qi, what precious treasure have you given Emperor Bahuang? We smelled an exceptionally fragrant aroma that not only delights the heart and the soul but also seems to contain very special Spirit Qi, which made us feel comfortable from head to toe upon smelling it. We are as close to Emperor Bahuang as we are to you. You can’t favor one over the other, so please also share some of this wonderful thing with us.”

Qi Tian said, “Stop dreaming about it. This type of thing is not plentiful in my possession. Any of you who desire it can. Just make a significant contribution in the exploration of the Saint’s Tomb that follows. If the merits you earn are sufficient, I will share some Spirit Milk Ointment with you afterward.”

Seeing that they wouldn’t receive any Spirit Milk Ointment from Qi Tian just by asking, Emperor Jianwu and others had to give up. They looked at Emperor Bahuang with envious eyes but didn’t say anything more.

Qi Tian ignored Emperor Jianwu and the others and scanned the rest of the cultivators to see if any of them, like Emperor Bahuang, had deficiencies in their bodies. However, after checking everyone, he didn’t find a second person in such a condition.

Qi Tian felt relieved but also a deep sense of regret. In such an environment, a deficiency in the body typically only meant one thing—that after advancing in cultivation due to insufficient preparation, there was a case of the spirit being willing but the flesh being weak. To put it simply, the bottle became bigger, but the contents hadn’t changed, leaving the bottle unable to be filled.

Such a situation was good news as it meant the individual’s strength had increased. As long as the deficiency was replenished, their combat power would surely rise, benefiting the entire team greatly. Qi Tian would not be stingy and would definitely use the Spirit Milk Ointment to fill up this deficiency. Unfortunately, besides Emperor Jianwu, there was not a second person with a similar condition.
