I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency

Chapter 29

The general direction of comprehensively developing all support skills such as pill refinement, weapon refinement, and talismans was a decision made by Lu Yuan after careful consideration.

Learning pill refinement could ensure that he did not lack any kind of pills and greatly improve his ability to survive.

Learning weapon refinement could guarantee that he would not be lacking in magic items and magic instruments that suited him, which would also greatly improve his ability to survive.

By the same logic, Lu Yuan’s main purpose in learning other support skills was to improve his survival capabilities.

In short, who wouldn’t want to wear armor that guaranteed resurrection when out and about?

Even if one couldn’t have an armor of resurrection, it was still good to have more pills and equipment!

Most people would not have the energy to cultivate so many support skills at the same time, but it was different for Lu Yuan who had a cheat.

To him, no matter how difficult the skill was, as long as he could record it in the system interface, he would be able to cultivate it to a certain level.

With such an advantage, Lu Yuan would be a fool if he didn’t learn more skills.

After all the talk with the general direction, it was time to talk about the problem that Lu Yuan was currently facing.

Due to the incident with Mu Qiqi, Lu Yuan’s cultivation had been exposed in advance.

That being said, he couldn’t hide his cultivation any longer either.

This was related to the problem of cultivation techniques.

The cultivation technique that Lu Yuan was currently cultivating was the Qi Cultivation chapter of the Qingyun Technique.

Since it was called the Qi Cultivation chapter, it could naturally only be cultivated to the Qi Cultivation Stage.

Lu Yuan had to find a way to obtain a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation technique before he could continue his cultivation.

Although the skill interface was a good cheat, it could only advance the general skills.

As for cultivation techniques like the Qingyun Technique and special divine abilities like the Green Flame Technique, he could not directly advance them with his current skills.

Only when Lu Yuan found a similar type of advanced skill or learned enough of the same type of skills could he advance these special skills.

This was also one of the reasons why Lu Yuan wanted to learn so many skills.

He may seem to have a lot of skills now, but once he learned them to a certain extent, these skills could all be integrated.

When that time came, the effect of a single skill would be even greater than the current multiple skills.

Thus, Lu Yuan, who lacked a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation technique, had to make a trip to the Scripture Pavilion of Qingyun Sect even without Mu Qiqi’s sudden appearance today.

When it was time to exchange for Foundation Establishment cultivation techniques, his cultivation would naturally be exposed.

Besides, if he didn’t reveal his Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation, how would he receive the welfare of a Foundation Establishment Stage disciple?

Take demoness Meng Ruyan as an example.

The Foundation Establishment Stage disciples of the Qingyun Sect would receive five mid-grade spiritual stones and a bottle of cultivation pills every month.

Secondly, when a disciple broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage for the first time, not only could they exchange for a corresponding advanced cultivation technique and a Foundation Establishment Stage divine ability for free, but their authority to exchange for any Foundation Establishment Stage techniques and divine abilities of the Qingyun Sect would be unlocked.

Indeed, it was just unlocking their authority.

At this point, the evil Qingyun Co., Ltd. no longer hid their sinister intentions.

It was clearly telling everyone: I, the Qingyun Sect, am going to start exploiting you!

On this point, the attitude of the Qingyun Sect towards its disciples was the same as how the Korean entertainment companies treated their trainees in Lu Yuan’s previous life.

At the trainee stage, the entertainment company would spend money to train the trainees, and the trainees could also get a salary.

However, after the trainees debuted, it would be time for the company to recover their costs.

The status of Qi Cultivation Stage disciples in the Qingyun Sect was similar to that of trainees in an entertainment company.

The Foundation Establishment Stage disciples were the freshly debuted stars of entertainment companies.

As for the direct disciples, they were basically center stage.

However, it was also because of this that the direct disciples were almost bound to Qingyun Sect, and the sect would not easily let them go.

From this perspective, the so-called celestial cultivation sects and large capitalist companies were actually no different.

Did they think they were cultivating to become celestials? He was sorry, but they were actually going to work in a different form. On top of that, it was the kind where there was no insurance or protection from labor laws.

It was because Lu Yuan understood very well that “cultivating in a sect is equivalent to working in a company”, that he appeared to be “nonchalant” and “slacking off”.

Slacking off in the company was Lu Yuan’s old practice.

What? Did the sect want him to go out and vanquish demons and devils?

The sect was only giving him so few spiritual stones every month. How dare it ask him to risk his life to vanquish demons and devils?

Even capitalists would lament their kindness when they saw how the sect was operating! At the very least, the capitalists wouldn’t ask their employees to complete their work with the determination that they might die.

Compared to the life-and-death tasks arranged by the sect of vanquishing demons and devils, Lu Yuan felt that his current life of lazing around while being confined was pretty good.

It was safe and leisurely while he still got his pay.

Where could one find such a good job?

If not for the fact that he was stuck due to the cultivation technique problem, Lu Yuan would have wished that no one knew that he had reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.

But there was no other way. In life, there were bound to be things that didn’t go one’s way.

The Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation technique was the key reason why Lu Yuan had no choice but to end his idle life.

If one said that Lu Yuan had been all smiles before the confinement, he had a standard dead face while on his way to the Scripture Pavilion.

From slacking off to going-to-be exploited, no one would feel good!

That being said, even though Lu Yuan knew that he could no longer hide his cultivation, he did not give up on his “slacking-off grand plan”.

As for how to still slack off even after his Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation had been exposed, Lu Yuan had some ideas.

It was just that the operation was a little difficult, so he needed to plan well.

…

In the Scripture Pavilion of the Qingyun Sect.

“Senior brother, I’m here to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation technique.”

“Okay. May I ask which valley you are from?”

“Lu Yuan from the Pharmacist Valley.”

After confirming that Lu Yuan had indeed reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, the disciple guarding the Scripture Pavilion brought Lu Yuan in.

Even though this was not his first time here, as Lu Yuan’s cultivation increased, he could now sense the extraordinary nature of the Scripture Pavilion.

There was a powerful aura hidden in the small Scripture Pavilion.

It should be a Core Formation Stage cultivator.

In other words, the disciple in front of him was actually just a tool of the Scripture Pavilion.

The true security of the Scripture Pavilion was the hidden Core Formation Stage elder.

Under the guidance of the disciple, Lu Yuan soon arrived on the second floor.

Compared to the first floor, not only were there fewer books on the second floor but every book here was protected by a restriction.

Not only were the books unable to be borrowed at will, but one could only memorize them when reading them and could not photocopy or bring them out.

In addition, Lu Yuan could only see the names of these Foundation Establishment Stage techniques and some brief descriptions of them.

It wasn’t like the sects in the celestial cultivation novels, where one could first read the contents of the divine abilities and cultivation techniques carefully before deciding whether to cultivate it or not.

The disciple at the side seemed to have noticed Lu Yuan’s confusion and said with a smile, “Junior brother, are you wondering why the sect doesn’t let us see the specific content of the divine abilities and cultivation techniques in advance before making a decision?”

Lu Yuan nodded.

The disciple of the Scripture Pavilion said with a sigh, “To be honest, a thousand years ago, the Qingyun Sect allowed its disciples to read all the divine abilities and cultivation techniques with no restraints. No one expected that a devil spy would appear in the sect. He used his outstanding memory to memorize most of the divine abilities and cultivation techniques in the sect at that time. Then, he defected. After this incident, the sect imposed strict restrictions on all divine abilities and cultivation techniques in fear of similar situations happening.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan was dumbfounded.

Damn it, which senior was so uncultured?

To think that guy did what he wanted to do.

If he ate meat, he should at least leave some soup for the younger generation to drink!

Originally, Lu Yuan wanted to rely on his cheat to see if he could learn some simple divine abilities in a short time and turn them into his skills.

In the end, he found on the spot that this conniving path had been blocked. It would be strange if he wasn’t angry.

“Alright, junior brother, you can start choosing the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation technique you want. After you’ve made your choice, I’ll help you remove the restrictions on the cultivation technique. After that, you’ll have the time for three incense sticks to burn to memorize it. After the time is over, no matter what the result is, you must leave.”

“It’s fine even if you don’t remember all of it though, because you can borrow the same technique and divine ability multiple times. So, junior brother, you don’t have to be too anxious. You must choose carefully. After all, this is related to your future path.”

“Thank you, senior brother,” Lu Yuan nodded and thanked him.

“You’re welcome. I was just doing my duty.”

After the disciple of the Scripture Pavilion had left far away, Lu Yuan began to search for the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation technique he wanted…
