Chapter 152: First Trial of Sitting on the Mountain
"Don't worry about the contribution points, just pick the rare items and skills you like."
Although he said that they had to be careful with their spending, Li Fan still gave the order as he looked at Su Xiaomei and Xiao Heng who had conflicted looks on their faces.
They breathed a sigh of relief, and after half a day, they finally picked out what they needed from the vast list of supplies in the Tianxuan Mirror.
Su Xiaomei chose the [Fiery Feather] as her foundation-building item, a top-grade human item worth 6,000 contribution points.
The technique is a higher-level alternative to the "Heart Fury Flame Technique", the "Heart Fury Flame Technique", which is worth 6,000 contribution points.
The item Xiao Heng chose for his foundation-building project was the [Xingyun Stele], a top-quality item worth 5,500 contribution points.
The technique is "Spring Breeze and Rain". It is worth 5500 contribution points.
After the two of them made their choices, they obediently came to Li Fan and watched him pay the bill.
A total of 23,000 contribution points.
Even though Li Fan had a huge sum of more than 90,000 contribution points, his eyelids twitched.
It’s no wonder that He Zhenghao has a narrow mind. He really can’t afford to support the family.
Investing in a foundation-building cultivator requires at least 10,000 contribution points.
Li Fan remembered that the reward for guarding the Congyun Sea Island was only a few hundred to more than two thousand contribution points a year.
Even if there is some extra income, it's more than ten thousand contribution points.
It will take at least two or three years to save up enough money.
I have worked so hard for so long, and now I am giving it to others...
Who would be willing to do this?
"Sure enough, this 'Sitting in the Mountain Art' is not something that ordinary people can practice." Li Fan sighed and bought the four items.
In the blink of an eye, the 90,000 contribution points were reduced to 67,000 points, plus the remaining 1,100 points.
Li Fan currently only has 68,100 contribution points left.
"You build the foundation here, and I will protect you." After handing the things to the two people, Li Fan instructed.
The two were overjoyed and agreed immediately.
Feeling extremely confident in Li Fan, Su Xiaomei and Xiao Heng retreated in this room to build their foundation.
Wuxiang's murderous intent locked onto the two of them, and Li Fan once again took the opportunity to comprehend the process of building his foundation.
Although the foundation has been established in this life, Li Fan's ultimate goal is not just as simple as using the rare object of the earth, the Canghai Pearl, to achieve the foundation of Taoism.
Therefore, for Li Fan, the more insights he gained from building the foundation, the better.
The talents of these two are truly extraordinary.
Just one day later, as the shadow of a firebird took shape in Su Xiaomei's dantian, Su Xiaomei successfully advanced to the foundation-building stage.
At the same time, Li Fan also felt a sudden surge of pure cultivation in his body.
Moreover, it does not just appear once and then disappear completely.
Instead, it is like the gurgling stream in the mountains, and it continues to increase.
It's just that the increase has become very small and can be almost ignored.
After Su Xiaomei's breakthrough, she looked excited.
But he also knew his limits. Seeing that Xiao Heng was still in the process of building his foundation, he did not shout or yell.
He stood obediently beside Li Fan, waiting for Xiao Heng to complete his foundation building.
After another half day, a blue cloud took shape, and Xiao Heng officially entered the foundation-building stage.
However, the cultivation feedback from "The Art of Sitting on the Mountain" at this time was only one-fifth of Su Xiaomei's.
Not to mention the subsequent increase in cultivation, it is almost nothing.
After the breakthrough, Xiao Heng showed joy.
But he soon calmed down and kowtowed to Li Fan again.
Li Fan nodded and accepted it calmly, then took the two of them to meet Su Changyu and others.
When Su Changyu and the Yin sisters saw that the two had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, they were all genuinely happy and congratulated them repeatedly.
Zhao Erbao widened his eyes even more, his gaze moving back and forth between the two men and Li Fan, full of disbelief.
After everyone had a good time, Li Fan said, "The place we live in now is still too simple. Next, you all work together to build a real cave in Mingyue Lake for everyone to practice in the future."
"I will give you 5,000 contribution points, Xiao Heng. You can purchase the required materials at Tianxuan Xiaojing."
"I have to go out for something. I hope to see the cave completed when I come back."
"There is another person in the stone chamber at the bottom of the lake. He is my good friend. If there is anything you cannot solve, you can go and ask him for help."
Everyone obeyed the order.
After transferring 5,000 contribution points to Xiao Heng, Li Fan spent another twenty days returning to Yuandao City.
Entered the Tianxuan Mirror, spent 10,000 contribution points, and activated the auxiliary training mode.
Concentrate on practicing "Zuo Shan Jue".
Time flies, and a hundred days passed in a hurry.
In the blink of an eye, it has been 29 years since the anchoring.
Li Fan woke up from his retreat and checked the progress of his cultivation.
The result surprised Li Fan.
Because the level of cultivation gained from practicing for more than a hundred days was only twice as much as the level of cultivation gained from Su Xiaomei's breakthrough.
"No, it should be less than double. In these hundred days, Su Xiaomei and Xiao Heng's strength must have increased. So the increase in my cultivation is not only from my own practice, but also a small part of the feedback from "Sitting Mountain Technique"."
"It is foreseeable that as Su Xiaomei's realm continues to improve, the feedback from her cultivation will continue. It should finally stop after they reach the perfection of foundation building."
"I can draw a rough conclusion. With the same contribution, the total amount of increase in cultivation brought by it far exceeds what I can gain from my own cultivation. But this process is very long. For people with average investment talent, it may take nearly a hundred years to enjoy the full benefits."
“Investing in talented people can greatly shorten this process.”
"But no matter what, teaching the "Mountain Sitting Secret" is a sure win."
"It seems that if the contribution is sufficient, the fastest way to practice is to practice in the Tianxuan Mirror by yourself, and to pass on the Dharma and [sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor] at the same time."
"Unfortunately, this consumes too much contribution points. Even if it is 200,000 contribution points, it won't last long. It's not a long-term solution."
"If you want to maximize the benefits of contribution points, you should not use the Tianxuan Mirror to practice. Invest all your contribution points in Tianjiao, and rely on the feedback from [Sit Back and Enjoy the Fruits of Others] to increase your cultivation realm."
"It's a pity that geniuses are rare. In my past and present lives, I have only met two or three of them."
"The speed of cultivation is definitely not as fast as using all the spiritual awakening to cultivate."
Li Fan paused and thought about Xiao Heng's situation again.
"If you teach the Dharma for a fee, you can also get feedback on your cultivation. And if you can ensure that the contribution points are safely recovered, wouldn't it be equivalent to making a huge profit without any investment?"
"If I charge a little more..."
"I believe there must be many cultivators who are stuck at a bottleneck and in urgent need of a breakthrough, and are willing to spend such a tiny price to obtain the skills or rare items in advance."
"I have the killing intent of Wu Xiang, so I am not afraid of these cultivators escaping. Su Xiaomei and Xiao Heng are my two great guardians. If I encounter someone who is overdue, I don't need to go to their door to collect the debt myself."
"If I meet a true genius, I can provide him for free..."
"Okay! Okay!"
The more Li Fan thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't help but blurt it out.
"The Mountain Sitting Technique is really a great technique!"
"You, Daoist Brother He, don't know how to use such a magical skill. It's really a waste of God's gift!"
