Chapter 70: Seeking the Yuanying Method
Listening to He Zhenghao's rambling explanation.
The figure in front of Li Fan's eyes gradually overlapped with the figure of the immortal cultivator who saved Li Jie and his group when he first entered the immortal cultivation world in his previous life.
"Okay, so it turns out that you are the one who stole the goods! No wonder Tianbao Tower has been doing the smuggling business right under your nose, but nothing has happened. Even in the past life, the rumor that Tianbao Tower smuggled mortals was known throughout the island, but it never caused any trouble."
If you think about it carefully, it is true.
With He Zhenghao's greedy character, how could he give the fat meat at his fingertips to others?
Very reasonable.
Li Fan was speechless, but he quickly accepted the reality.
"So what does Fellow Daoist He mean?"
He Zhenghao was very happy when he saw that Li Fan had no objection. "This is a simple matter. All you need to do is go to the outer world for me and bring back the supplies that I asked the people in the outer world to collect ten years ago."
"After these materials are sold, the contribution points will be divided equally between you and me."
"I need to guard Liuli Island and cannot leave. I was originally planning to find someone else to cooperate with, but when you sent me a message, I decided to contact you instead."
After thinking about it, there is really no risk in this matter.
More than a thousand contribution points in thirty days is far more than the tasks that can be accepted normally.
"I wonder how long it takes for a round trip?" This must be asked in advance. Li Fan does not want to miss the opening of Yunshui Palace.
"Don't worry, it will only take twenty to thirty days at most and it won't delay your practice." He Zhenghao assured.
"Okay, I'll take it then."
He Zhenghao smiled with satisfaction, and took out a small wooden boat and handed it to Li Fan: "After you get the supplies, you will give this to the mortals outside the world, and don't worry about the others."
Li Fan took it and looked at it. The wooden boat was somewhat similar to the Tai Yan Boat, but not as exquisite.
"It's just an ordinary wooden boat with some magic arrays engraved on it. It's not a magic weapon. But it is enough to protect those mortals who pass through the Xianjue formation and come here." He Zhenghao explained.
"Of course, the strength of the formation can only support one journey. After arriving in this world of immortal cultivation, the formation on the wooden boat will run out of energy and dissipate on its own."
"This is also to prevent those mortals from copying it."
"Fellow Daoist He is truly thoughtful." Li Fanyan said insincerely.
He Zhenghao laughed and didn't care.
He took out another talisman and handed it to Li Fan reluctantly.
"No matter what, helping mortals to sneak across the border is something that should not be done in public. If you are caught by other cultivators, not only will you lose face, but you may also have to face the accusation of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. To be on the safe side, fellow Taoist, you should carry this hiding talisman with you to avoid being recognized."
Li Fan nodded and accepted it.
"This Hiding Shape Talisman can conceal one's body shape and aura. It is an advanced version of the Hiding Aura Talisman. After using it, even a Jindan-level cultivator will not be able to see through it. It is truly a killer..."
"It is indeed a must-have item for my monks when they go out." He Zhenghao paused, and said with some regret: "It's a pity that the spiritual mist grass required to draw this hidden shape talisman is relatively rare, which causes the price of the hidden shape talisman to remain high."
"One requires 50 contribution points."
"However, if you need it in the future, you can go to Wanxian Island to find a cultivator named Jiao Xiuyuan. He has a large number of defective Hidden Shape Talismans, which are said to be eliminated from the Talisman Hall of Wanxian Island. Although they are called defective products, they can still be used as usual. It's just that the effect is not very good, and only Foundation Establishment cultivators can't see through it."
"But the good thing is that the price is low, only 20 contribution points. If you go out in the future, you might as well prepare some." He Zhenghao tirelessly explained science to Li Fan.
Afterwards, He Zhenghao explained to Li Fan in detail the precautions to take when leaving the world and the various situations that might be encountered.
After that, everything was ready and Li Fan prepared to leave the world.
Strive to go early and return early.
However, before leaving, Li Fan couldn't help but ask, "Fellow Daoist He, there is something I've always been confused about. But I don't know whether I should ask..."
He Zhenghao was stunned for a moment, then said, "You can say whatever you want."
"Fellow Daoist He, you are a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and you are in charge of the guarding position of Liuli Island. You are also an expert in formations, so logically speaking, you should not be that short of contribution points. Why…"
"...still look a little embarrassed?" Li Fan pondered for a moment and asked tactfully.
He Zhenghao thought Li Fan was worried about his future in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
With a bitter smile, he explained, "Fellow Daoist, you have misunderstood. In the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, although the contribution of foundation-building cultivators is still not that free, it will never be like mine."
"Oh? What's the secret, Brother He?" Li Fanqi asked.
"To be honest, I have taken a fancy to a Nascent Soul technique, which is very compatible with my foundation-building magic weapon. If I can practice that technique, I will surely achieve Golden Elixir within a hundred years, and even the Nascent Soul stage will be a sure thing." A trace of desire flashed in He Zhenghao's eyes.
"Unfortunately, Nascent Soul True Skill is too precious. Even though I have been accumulating the required contribution points for a long time, I still lack a lot."
"So, I can only save as much as possible in normal times." He sighed. "Even so, I don't know when I can exchange it."
"I also wonder if this technique that I've been dreaming of will be exchanged for by someone else before then?"
He Zhenghao sighed.
Then he remembered something and said to Li Fan, "Oh, you are already in the late stage of Qi Refining. When choosing a foundation-building technique, if conditions permit, remember to choose one that is compatible with your foundation-building artifact. This way, not only will your future practice be twice as effective with half the effort, but there will also be many other benefits. Due to the limitations of the Tianxuan Mirror, I can't tell you too much about the details. Anyway, you can't go wrong if you remember this."
"Are the foundation-building objects and the exercises compatible..." Li Fan nodded slowly after hearing this.
But then He Zhenghao sighed and said, "In fact, the technique I am practicing now is also very extraordinary. It was discovered by accident when I was exploring an unknown cave when I was young. It contains all kinds of incredible techniques."
"It's a pity that the difficulty of cultivation is a little too high. It takes dozens or even hundreds of years to improve a small realm."
"The Foundation Establishment Stage is already so difficult. If I force myself to practice this technique in the Golden Core Stage, I will definitely die before I can break through my realm."
"Changing the technique is really a helpless move." After saying this, He Zhenghao fell into deep silence.
After hearing this, Li Fan bowed and went straight to Lijie.
He Zhenghao looked at Li Fan's receding figure and sighed again in his heart.
He actually had something else to say.
It is true that Zuo Shan Jue can gain rewards from helping younger generations of monks, but...
Practicing Buddhism is really difficult.
Over the years, he has cast a wide net and supported young people.
As a result, most of them died inexplicably not long after, and did not even reach the foundation-building stage.
It is a blessing to meet a genius like Li Fan, who has reached the late stage of Qi Refining at a young age.
After all, how could there be so many geniuses in this world, and how could he happen to meet one?
Thanks to the book friend Yuan Ding San Sheng Ban Shi Shang for the reward
