Dara relished in the gazes of the entire tribe as did the First Obun Elder who was shaking the hands of his former assistant…

"Is that what I think it is!?"

Ji Wang squealed in delight as he slowly approached each of these cloth wrapped loads, looking at all of them adoringly… 

This is what was going to determine the prosperity of their tribe, and it was right here in front of him;

"Have you guys prepared a place where we can store them?" Dara asked but was met with silence;

"Uncle Min?" Ji Wang had to blurt out before the stunned Uncle Min realized that he had missed the question;

"He is asking for where to store them…" Ji Wang repeated;

"Oh! Erm… Um, this way…"

Uncle Min turned around and led the group back the way he came through, as Dara walked past Aunt Lin who smiled and winked at him…

Dara returned a smile of his own as she tagged along with him…

Dara reached the store and had no choice but to whistle in wonder; it was indeed massive;

"There is still a lot to be done, but we should finish up everything by dusk tomorrow…"

Uncle Min tried to regain a bit of face, and he really did, as everyone who came in here were just whistling one after the other in wonder of how intricate everything within here was…

He led Dara's group who were just looking at everything like a tourist, down the vault and brought them to the containers hung on the wall…

Uncle Min then gave them the same kind of description he had given Ji Wang, before Dara then told the men to pour the Qi Stones into the container, and by the time they were done, the container was about half filled;

"Whoa, I had thought this container would be able to fit every Qi Stones we will ever have, but it seems we need to do more construction…" Uncle Min muttered when they were done pouring all the Qi Stones…

The effects of the presence of these Qi Stones was instantaneous as the dark walls of the cave –which was the testament of the billowing dark Qi of the Dark Lands– instantly turned white as all the Dark Qi's fled like darkness in front of light…

Life bloomed from the surrounding soil and it stunned everyone as fresh, beautiful yellow, white, pink and purple flowers bloomed out of the rich green vines which sprouted from all sides…

The wood which lined the container which these stones were placed into also sprouted some vines which made the interior of the container look like a cushiony nest with the stones looking like eggs in them…

The air within the vault became fresh and the humidity and temperature became as natural as during the spring season, but the effects did not stop within the vault; it also spread out throughout the store as Uncle Min blurted absentmindedly;

"The presence of this Qi Stones alone can already provide a preservative atmosphere for anything we keep in this store…"

They watched at glowing vines and flower bloomed across the roof bringing natural and mesmerizing light into the Dark Vault, but just when they thought it was over, these flowers bloomed and many fragrant dust poured out of them and floated to every part of the vault bringing a very soothing and refreshing smell to the environment;

"It seems this stones would be great for farming and beautifying the entire tribe…" Aunt Lin blurted with a strong blush as she savored the scent the vault was now giving…

"What do you mean?" Ji Wang asked;

"What do you think will happen if we bury about a dozen of these stones all over the tribe and let it grow trees that smells this nice, wouldn't that improve the overall health and mental wellness of the tribe?"

Though the group understood where she was coming from, but all of them felt they should use them for cultivation rather than beautifying the entire tribe, but before anyone of them could object, Dara spoke from the side with a smile;

"Do it!" Aunt Lin blushed bashfully as she turned to three of these men;

"Alright, each of you carry four each and bring them with me…"

She turned to these experts and spoke, but the experts on the other hand simply looked over to Dara who then gave them the go ahead with a nod…

Aunt Lin dashed out of the vault and the first place she planted a Qi Stone was right atop the plateau, in the middle of their residence, and just like earlier, vines bloomed across the entire residence making it look pixie or elven like…

The glowing flowers bloomed and gave natural light to the room as Aunt Lin put of the torches they hung on the wall, as the vines continue to grow and its flowers bloom, before the fragrance started to spread all over the entire residence…

She left immediately to go plant the rest of the Qi Stones at specific places within the tribe, and the one she planted at the square, grew into a massive tree which grew up to about 25 meter in height in less than three minutes…

It spread its trunk wide in all directions before flowers began to bloom all over it as its fragrance began to disperse into every nook and cranny of the tribe…

The breeze also carried most of it to parts of the tribe where it wouldn't naturally reach, and just like plant pollen, whenever these fragrant dusts landed, green lush vegetation bloomed from these spots and in little to no time, the entire tribe which was usually a place of darkness, wet soil, black billowing Qi and arid atmosphere began to turn into a paradise…

Life spread through every part of the sects and bloomed abundantly, as all the flowers brought bright light to the entire tribe, and by the time the spread had covered the entire place, it was already nighttime, and Ji Chen and the rest who went to log woods in the forest were just in time to witness the most mesmerizing sights of their lives…

The moment night came, all the glowing white and yellow flowers suddenly lost all their light leaving only the purple and pink which brought out the romantic ambience of what nighttime would look like in a paradise…
