"This cultivation family, the Gong family, wants to select a few young disciples from our Qingfeng Gang's inner sect to serve as their servants. Just what is the background of this Gong family?"
Lin Xiaofei asked with a curious expression.
"The Gong family is a cultivation family with a history of five hundred years. They are very powerful. Compared with our Qingfeng Gang, they are like a mountain compared to a small stone."
In Canyon County, our Chief Li is one of the top martial artists.
However, compared to the servants in the Gong family, our Chief Li is a first-class master, which is equivalent to the weakest servant in the Gong family. Moreover, there are many first-class masters and even innate masters in the Gong family.
I've also heard that those innate masters in the Gong family are equivalent to minor managers in our gang.
Those innate masters are all subordinates in the cultivation families; the truly powerful ones are the cultivators themselves.
Now that I've explained it this way, you should understand just how powerful the Gong family is.
As he spoke, a hint of envy appeared in Feng Yilun's eyes.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaofei was startled.
Within the Qingfeng Gang, any young disciple under the age of twenty-five who can cultivate to the peak of the first-rate level is considered a minor genius; if they can cultivate to the inner qi realm, they are considered a great genius; and then there are the third-rate, second-rate, and first-rate realms.
However, in such a large gang with thousands of disciples, only the gang leader, Li Yunchang, had cultivated to the first-class level.
The Gong family, however, has a large number of top-tier experts and even innate experts. Moreover, these innate experts can at most become minor managers in a cultivation family. One can imagine how powerful the Gong family is.
After thinking it over, Lin Xiaofei understood some things. He realized that the Gong family was a much more powerful force than the Qingfeng Gang, and the Qingfeng Gang was very likely one of the Gong family's affiliated forces.
"Furthermore, this time the young inner disciples have the opportunity to become servants of the Gong family. This is an incredible opportunity for you young inner disciples."
Once someone becomes a servant of the Gong family, that's a big deal. First of all, their status will be elevated immediately, even higher than our gang leader's.
Moreover, after joining the Gong family, it is said that one can eat the flesh and blood of top-grade exotic beasts every day, cultivate various top-grade martial arts, and not have to worry about the resources for cultivating martial arts, and the speed of improvement in strength will be very fast.
If one works diligently within the Gong family and reaches the Gong family's required cultivation level, one might be able to obtain a Primordial Pill, which could potentially make one a Primordial Master.
Once one becomes a master of innate martial arts, their lifespan will increase by fifty years.
As he spoke, Feng Yilun's face showed envy and longing.
The Innate Martial Artist realm is a level of martial artistry that is extremely rare, even in the entire Canyon County.
The Gong family is a family of cultivators, and there must be someone in the family who knows immortal techniques. He wanted to become a cultivator, but unfortunately, cultivating immortal techniques requires both good fortune and the aptitude for cultivation. He believed that he did not have the affinity for immortality, so he did not expect to be able to cultivate immortal techniques.
"Unfortunately, this opportunity to become a servant of the Gong family is only available to young inner disciples under the age of twenty-five. I have just turned twenty-six and have no chance to participate in this mission. Otherwise, I would definitely do my best to compete for such an opportunity."
Feng Yilun sighed and said with a wry smile.
"If what you're saying is true, then becoming a servant of the Gong family would give one the chance to become a master of the Innate Realm, which is indeed a good opportunity."
Lin Xiaofei nodded and said, suddenly understanding why the Left Protector Qian Ming had strongly supported Guo Zishan and even given Guo Zishan a precious sword, hoping that Guo Zishan would win first place in the martial arts competition and thus have the opportunity to come to the main gang to participate in this mission.
However, he really looked down on the idea of being someone else's servant.
Although Feng Yilun looked longingly at him and spoke very temptingly, Lin Xiaofei did not want to become anyone's servant.
"Of course, otherwise why would so many people want such an opportunity? I hope you can do well in your missions, earn a lot of contribution points, and become a servant of the Gong family. Then I, your senior brother, will be able to receive some of your care in the future."
Feng Yilun nodded, which was also why he wanted to talk to Lin Xiaofei a little longer.
A young disciple like Lin Xiaofei, with his excellent talent for martial arts, would soar to great heights once he became a servant of the Gong family, achieving a status even more prestigious than the leader of the Qingfeng Gang. Naturally, he was willing to interact more with his junior brother.
"Can one become a servant of the Gong family simply by earning a large amount of contribution points?"
Seeing Feng Yilun speaking excitedly, Lin Xiaofei asked curiously.
"Within a six-month period, the contributions accumulated by you inner disciples will be ranked, and the top three will have the opportunity to become servants of the Gong family."
However, I have high hopes for you, junior brother. I did some research on you beforehand and know that your talent for martial arts is extraordinary.
So, you still have a chance to compete for a top-three finish.
Feng Yilun said with a smile.
Lin Xiaofei smiled slightly, but did not reply, having already made his decision.
He didn't want to serve anyone, nor was he interested in competing to become a servant of the Gong family. However, the Gong family, a family of cultivators, must have cultivation techniques, and he was quite interested in them, so he chatted with Feng Yilun again.
Unfortunately, Feng Yilun knew nothing about immortal techniques, let alone what kind of immortal techniques the Gong family possessed, so Lin Xiaofei stopped chatting with him.
"What should I do if I don't have any immortal techniques beyond the sixth level of Qi Refining?"
After leaving the restaurant, Lin Xiaofei muttered to himself.
To obtain the method of cultivating immortality in Qingshan Town was something that could only be encountered by chance and was also an accident, a fact he had long understood.
"It seems I need to make contact with some cultivators and obtain immortal techniques above the sixth level of Qi Refining from them."
Lin Xiaofei muttered to himself, and couldn't help but think that Senior Wang Qingliang had arrived in Canyon County earlier than him. Perhaps he could talk to him about this matter, and maybe the other party would have a solution.
"I only know Senior Wang Qingliang, and I don't know if he's willing to sell me his cultivation method. It seems I need to make some preparations before I can do so."
However, there isn't time to visit Senior Wang Qingliang right now; it seems I'll have to wait a while.
After thinking for a while, Lin Xiaofei made a decision to postpone dealing with this matter.
The path to immortality is long and arduous, and one cannot reach a high level of cultivation overnight.
Given his current situation, Lin Xiaofei felt it would be more prudent and appropriate for him to familiarize himself with Canyon County first, make some preparations, and then go to find Senior Wang Qingliang.
The next day, Lin Xiaofei toured the territory where the Qingfeng Gang was located, gaining a basic understanding of it. When he passed by Xiangjiu Restaurant, he saw Feng Yilun walking out of the restaurant, looking like he had drunk quite a bit of alcohol again.
“Junior brother, I went to Steward Ding's place yesterday. He said he could arrange a simple and easy task for you so that you can easily complete the test.”
But this morning, Manager Ding's men came to tell me that they wouldn't dare assign me any more solo tasks, and they haven't even returned the money I gave Manager Ding. Can you believe it?
Upon seeing Lin Xiaofei, Feng Yilun quickly stepped forward and said...
"What happened?"
Lin Xiaofei frowned slightly, his heart skipped a beat, and he asked in confusion.
"I also find it inexplicable. Manager Ding promised to arrange an easy task for you, but now he has suddenly changed his mind and said that he will not dare to arrange solo tasks or tasks that earn more money for you in the future."
But Manager Ding is not the kind of person who takes money and does nothing, so I think there must be something fishy about this.
"I've been thinking about it for hours. You're a newcomer to the organization, you don't know anyone, it's impossible for you to be targeted by higher-ups. I've been pondering this for hours and still can't figure it out, it really puzzles me."
Feng Yilun shrugged and said.
"I know about this, so you don't need to worry about it."
However, the other party took my money but didn't do anything; this matter can't just be left like this.
After a moment's thought, Lin Xiaofei understood why Steward Ding hadn't assigned him a solo task.
He had only been with the Qingfeng Gang for a little over two days and hadn't made enemies with anyone. The only person he might have offended was an inner disciple who came out of the Internal Affairs Hall the day before yesterday, saying he wanted to buy his Bone Forging Pills, but he didn't agree. He figured that person was behind it all.
“Junior brother, I’ll go to Steward Ding again and ask. Even if he doesn’t do anything, I’ll definitely get the money back for you.”
Feng Yilun said, looking slightly embarrassed.
"OK."
Lin Xiaofei responded and turned to leave.
After briefly familiarizing himself with the Qingfeng Gang's territory, Lin Xiaofei glanced at the spatial bead as he walked, a look of delight suddenly appearing on his face.
The herbs planted inside the space bead had grown for a month, which is equivalent to a year. He found that all the herbs had become herbs that were at least a year old.
For the past month, he refrained from consuming herbs to accelerate his cultivation, in order to allow the herbs more time to grow and enhance their medicinal properties, which would be more helpful to his cultivation.
After a month of self-cultivation, he also truly experienced the slowness of his cultivation speed. Without the support of herbs, he always felt that his cultivation speed was too slow.
Now, all the herbs planted in the space bead have grown to at least one year old, so he can consume another batch of herbs to accelerate his cultivation.
"I'm really looking forward to it."
Lin Xiaofei was excited. He hurried back to the courtyard, entered his room, closed the doors and windows, and entered the spatial bead.
"By the way, I've mastered three advanced cultivation techniques and quite a few martial arts skills. How about I accelerate my training of them all and then combine them?"
Lin Xiaofei thought to himself that this was a good idea.
He possesses martial arts skills such as the Flowing Palm, the Eighteen Swords of Gale, and the Eight Winds Sword Technique, as well as the perfected Body Tempering Divine Skill, the perfected Golden Bronze Body Technique, the beginner-level Golden Lotus Technique, and the beginner-level Vajra Body Tempering Technique.
Next, Lin Xiaofei sensed the several perfect-level martial arts techniques and discovered that there were intricate connections between them. He immediately understood that this was the effect of the herbs he had previously consumed from the space bead.
"I never expected that the scent of the herbs floating inside the spatial bead, which I only inhaled, would cause my cultivation technique to start circulating slightly."
Lin Xiaofei was startled when he discovered that the cultivation technique was in operation.
He was curious, and took another deep breath of the abundant herbal scent floating inside the spatial bead, sensing his own immortal cultivation level.
With a thought, Lin Xiaofei's dantian, which originally contained more than eight thousand strands of spiritual energy, increased by half a strand after he took a deep breath of the aroma of a large amount of herbs.
