Upon entering the Xun Fang Pavilion, the two were captivated by the spectacular scene inside. The vast hall was filled with tables and chairs, most of which were already occupied, presenting a dense crowd.
Not only that, but the air was festooned with colorful silk ribbons, presenting a festive sight. At the moment, a few ladies were performing melodious music on stage, providing entertainment for the waiting guests.
Lin Yi could also feel the spiritual energy within the Xun Fang Pavilion, which was slightly richer than that of the Spiritual Field Planting District of the Liu Yun Sect's Outer Sect. However, it was only enough to make cultivators feel comfortable; for cultivation purposes, the concentration was still too low to be worth the time.
Guided by a middle-aged woman, they were led to a very remote location. It was not only at the back but also in the corner, obstructed by a pillar right in front. To see the performance on the stage in its entirety, they'd need to sidle their bodies.
"This location is too remote, isn't it?" Old Huang grumbled. Usually, his one spirit stone admission fee would let him sit in the middle and enjoy the show. Now, with these two spirit stones, he was practically brushing against the wall of the Xun Fang Pavilion.
"Two Immortal Masters, this is the location corresponding to two spirit stones. If you wish to change, you need to add spirit stones," the woman leading the way said with a smile.
"Old Huang, I think this place is quite suitable, no need to spend more," Lin Yi rather liked this table in the corner, which could only accommodate two people. They would hardly draw any attention, allowing him to peacefully create talismans.
As for whether he could see clearly from the back, the eyesight of a cultivator wasn't something to be ignored. As long as the performance could activate the "Color is Void" effect, he could gain enlightenment and quickly elevate his talisman-making skills to the Great Achievement Level.
Old Huang didn't say anything further. He gestured and said, "Alright, bring the tea and fruit plate over."
Very soon, the middle-aged woman brought over a pot of tea and two plates of fruit. Casually placing them on the table, she said, "Two Immortal Masters, please enjoy," before turning around to leave.
"What an attitude. We give two spirit stones each, and they get this shabby woman to serve us," Old Huang grumbled.
"Alright, calm down. There are indeed pretty girls in the front row, but we can't afford to spend so much on spirit stones," Lin Yi gave Old Huang a pat on the back and said with a chuckle.
In the prime locations at the front, he could see some slender young girls in refreshing clothes sitting in peoples' laps, feeding them fruits.
After a while, the entire hall was filled. Some people were standing at the door, likely those who bought standing tickets for one spirit stone.
Lin Yi also saw Zhang Yuan Cheng. His brows were furrowed, and his face carried a serious expression. At a time like this, he still had the leisure to watch girls, he wondered if that indicated audacity or complacency.
As a bell rang out, the doors of the Xun Fang Pavilion closed. A plump woman in a red dress appeared on the stage, her face adorned with a charming smile.
"Today marks the tenth year since Xun Fang Pavilion set up in Qing Yun City. Thank you all for coming to support us. Not only will there be enchanting dances tonight, but our famous Fairy Song from the Xun Fang Pavilion will also be performing. Please look forward to it."
Upon hearing the name of Fairy Song, some cultivators below the stage erupted into excited cheers.
"Old Huang, have you ever seen this Fairy Song? She seems to have such a fervent following amongst the cultivators," Lin Yi couldn't help but ask in curiosity.
Old Huang's face showed a trace of intoxication, "I have only seen her from afar. Just one glance, just one, made me deeply infatuated. She is pure as jade, as cold and beautiful as an ice lotus. She gives off a longing desire - to kiss her, to conquer her."
"Alright! Wake up, it's daytime." Lin Yi stretched out his hand to wave in front of him, and said with suppressed laughter. Within his heart, however, surged a touch of curiosity.
One wondered if this Fairy Song, who drove many cultivators into frenzy, could activate the effect of the "Color is Void" title.
Next, the ceremonial performance officially began. Two women wearing light gauze stepped onto the stage, one in a green skirt and the other in a pink one, began to sway their waists. Their bodies seemed to be as flexible as if boneless, presenting their splendid figures to everyone with every dance move.
Gradually, their bodies intertwined and wrapped around each other, touching each other's skin. In the end, they slowly undressed each other. The provocative charm imbued with spirituality they emanated kept spreading around, making the breath of the cultivators present become ragged.
At the beginning of the performance, Old Huang rose from his chair, supporting himself on a column, he leaned out more than half of his body to watch the performance without blinking.
Lin Yi was also watching the performance intently. The tempting charm emanating from the stage was far beyond what the girls from the Xun Fang Pavilion could exude. A single gesture, a single look could hook the minds of cultivators.
Xiao He, compared to these women from Xian Huan Pavilion, was just a naive girl. He, too, inevitably fell prey to the seduction of these women's sensuous movements.
Looking at his title panel, sure enough, the effect of "Color is Void" had been activated, and the effect of enlightenment had already risen to 15% in this time alone.
Lin Yi didn't waste any more time. He took out of his bag the talisman making tools and began to create the Raging Fire talisman. Old Huang at his side was engrossed in watching the performance, his eyes glued to the stage, completely ignoring the activity next to him.
But both of them barely had any clothes left on, covered only by a thin layer of gauze. Their perfect figures were faintly visible and stirring the primal desires of the cultivators under the stage.
Then, one of the women performed the Cloud Rain Technique, a dark cloud appeared mid-air and it started raining lightly, the water making their gauzy clothes cling to their bodies.
Lin Yi was amazed. The technique that was specifically used for farming turned out to be used for performance. He guessed this could be counted as a different kind of "Cloud Rain".
Despite having only a translucent piece of gauze left on them, neither of woman had it completely removed. Like this, vaguely visible, they stirred the viewers' hearts.
While Lin Yi watched, he quickly drew talismans. Without Xiao He's temptation by his side, it was a bit inconvenient for him. In the ongoing rhythm of drawing talismans, he successfully gained enlightenment. His movements while making talismans became quicker and even somewhat casual.
In no time, the performance ended. Two women, utterly drenched and still dripping water from their hair, left the stage slowly.
"I can't resist it anymore, Madam Li, send both of them to my room." A middle-aged cultivator suddenly stood up, his face flushed red with desire.
"Ah, Brother Wang, aren't you going to watch Fairy Song's performance?" A cultivator nearby couldn't help but remind him.
"I will take only half an... No, an hour at most. I won't miss a thing." The middle-aged cultivator left these words behind and briskly walked upstairs.
Lin Yi shook his head and laughed. This Xian Huan Pavilion didn't show any sense of decency. They said it was a festival, but actually, it was just a large-scale selection show for women. First, they seduced the cultivators, sparked their desires, they needn't worry about not earning any spirit stones after that.
At this moment, after the end of the performance, Old Huang came back and sat down, his face full of aftertaste. When he saw Lin Yi's talisman-making tools laid out on the table, he was a bit stunned.
"Little Lin, why are you making talismans in the Xian Huan Pavilion? Was it more tempting than the women here? You wasted two spirit stones for this." As he spoke, he unconsciously wore a disgruntled look on his face.
