My Father the Southern Immortal Emperor

Chapter 45 The Unvalue Gift

The full moon hangs high in the night sky as Leon walks out of his house in secret. He climbed a mountain behind the community area. He raised his head and looked at the full moon above his head as a strange glint flashed across his eyes.

Next, he chose a place to sit by crossing his legs. He did a series of hand seals and cultivated the Treasure Immortal Art calmly.

A small dark green bottle appeared in his hand.. The bottle was as clear as jade and the size of a baby's palm. There were birds, beasts, insects, and fish carved on it, but there was no cover.

Leon looked at her in silence with a hint of memory on his face. He muttered to himself, "We meet again, old friend!"

It was the Immortal Drift Bottle. Leon had gotten it when he was thrown into the river back then. This bottle was the reason he had managed to travel to the world of cultivation. He used it to achieve the ability of purifying spiritual herbs. This was also the way he cultivated to become a God within 3,000 years and eventually become a Celestial Emperor.

For 3,000 years, he had no idea what the bottle was made of or whether it had any other abilities.

Under the moonlight, the entire Immortal Drift Bottle trembled lightly. Furthermore, a weak green light shone from him.

Leon had the same expression as he seemed to have gotten used to it. After the green light faded, he took out a wrinkled black patch that was the size of a walnut. He got it on Jiulong Antique Road before. He had even caused an Immortal Drift Bottle furore back then.

The reason why he had only studied it just now was because the Immortal Drift Bottle would not produce the mysterious green liquid unless it was a full moon.

After a moment of contemplation, Leon immediately placed it on the fertile ground. He then took out the Immortal Drift Bottle and poured it down gently. A drop of viscous green liquid dripped out of the bottle, finally landing on the black spot.

As soon as the green liquid dripped onto the black spot, the liquid vanished in the blink of an eye. Looks like the liquid has been absorbed.

Crick...

Leon stared at the black spot while holding his breath. The black patches swayed several times on the ground, followed by a light commotion. It began to release its shell as the black layer outside cracked.

Something similar to tentacles protruded out of the shell slowly. The tentacles stretched, growing longer. Finally, countless tentacles branched as he grew over three feet tall. The tentacles then turned into branches and leaves one after another.

In a few breaths, the black spot turned into a small tree. The bark of the tree is smaller than the mouth of the bowl, but lush.

Then, a black flower bloomed from the tree. The flower grows, then stops growing to the size of a fist. A foreign fragrance that was mesmerizingly smelled from him.

What flower is it? That's so fragrant!

Even Leon, who had seen at least 10,000 spiritual objects in his past life, was unable to recognize what they were.

Enchanted by the foreign scent, he was shocked to learn that the spiritual power in his body began to spin at an accelerated speed. Meanwhile, an extremely dense weed began to grow from the barren land beneath his feet.

Leon did not dare to hesitate. He immediately sat down by crossing his legs to cultivate the Emperor Scripture while absorbing as much foreign scent as he could. At the same time, his cultivation level increased rapidly. It rose from the peak of the beginner stage Spirit Assembly to the intermediate stage Spirit Assembly and then the peak of the intermediate stage Spirit Assembly.

Just as he was about to break through to the Spirit Assembly mastery level and even the highest level or Foundation Building, that foreign scent disappeared.

He opened his eyes to see immediately. He realized that the black flower had withered and was replaced by something similar to a black fruit. The shape is not round or oval. Instead, it is a cylindrical shape, resembling a batter grinder...

What is that thing exactly?

He hesitated for a moment, then he dripped a drop of the mysterious green liquid from the Immortal Drift Bottle onto the small tree. However, the small tree remained unchanged. Finally, he dripped the final drop of the mysterious green liquid onto it, but still, nothing changed.

Leon's a little upset right now. He sat next to her directly while looking at her without blinking. He was waiting for her to mature. However, the black fruit had no signs of becoming ripe at all as he waited until dawn broke.

All he could do was set up a formation around him before he left, with a disappointed face. She secretly decides to move him to the villa that Revan gave her when she had time.

...

As soon as he arrived, he realized that everyone was there. They were all chatting and smiling as they surrounded Riana's desk, discussing her birthday party.

Ricky sat down next to Riana. He could not stop talking about which restaurant they would go to after work as well as which karaoke place they would visit while Wenny, and the others would occasionally cheer.

They all stopped talking when they saw Leon. Ricky said as he raised his eyebrows, "Leon, today is Riana's birthday. I hope you remember the gift."

Riana only took a quick look at it.

Leon nodded and sat down in his chair without saying a word. He was still trying to figure out the black fruit on his head.

Ricky looked at Wenny and the others when he saw her like that. He scoffed, thinking that Leon had forgotten the gift or was too embarrassed to speak because the gift was subpar.

Realizing that it was time for work, they returned to their seats one after another and started to play around. Their minds are filled with excitement to go to restaurants and karaoke later.

After they finally passed the work hours, they rushed out when it was time to leave.

Leon stood up and walked towards Riana. He handed her the bracelet he had prepared for her. She said with a smile, "I'm not going to the party. Happy birthday."

Just as he finished speaking, Ricky snatched the bracelet from his hand. "Let's see what you gave to our Riana."

Leon frowned. The rest turned around and looked at the bracelet in Ricky's hand with their eyes wide open. They're very curious.

They flinched when they saw that there was no box for the bracelet and it was even tied into one with rubber. They looked at Leon with disdain and judgment.

How can it be a birthday present?

Ricky pointed at the bracelet and sneered through his words while laughing, "Leon, so this is...the birthday gift you gave Riana?"

Riana glanced at the bracelet and glanced at the people who could not stop laughing. He looks so horrified.

"Leon, don't tell me you got this from the flea market!" Wenny laughed out loud until his chest surged.

Roni said with a face of disdain, "You're too kind to say that he got it from the flea market. I'm guessing he took it from the trash."

"I made it myself" Leon said calmly.

As soon as he spoke, laughter exploded among the crowd again. Ricky deliberately said in an exaggerated manner, "Leon, this is not true. Riana only celebrates her birthday once a year and this is all you give her? Don't tell me you won't pay 80 to 100 yuan for the reward?"

"It's priceless."

Leon shook his head. He's being sincere. After all, the bracelet was a protective magic tool. If Riana faced danger, it could block six crises for her. It might even sell for a very high price if he auctioned it off.

If it wasn't for Second Uncle, Leon wouldn't have given it away.

Tobi could not help but laugh out loud. "Forget it. No one will want it even if you throw this trash on the ground. I can't believe you said it was priceless. Your skin must be thick."

Ricky handed the bracelet to Riana and said with a cynical smile, "Take it, Riana. Your cousin, who has a blood relationship, managed to make it for you. They say that the most important thing is the heart, right?"

Riana snatched the bracelet and immediately ran away. He wiped his tears as he fled. 'What do you mean by this? I won't mind even if you don't give me anything! How dare you give me a useless item?! Are you trying to embarrass me? Did you deliberately humiliate me in front of everyone?
