Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 26: Chapter 25: The Bizarre Exchange List 1

Translator: 549690339?????????????? ^&??? —

The contribution points are a type of currency circulated within the Seek Dao Sect. They are used for buying goods within the sect, eating in the dining hall, and for transactions among disciples.

Moreover, the special rewards available in the Task Hall also required contribution points.

For example, the highly coveted but unaffordable “One-day experience as the Sect Leader of Seek Dao Sect”. As the name suggests, upon redeeming this reward, you can be the Sect Leader for a day, hold meetings with the Elders, handle sect affairs, be recognized as the sect leader, commanding respect and authority, and enjoy the privileges of the highest leadership among the Five Great Immortal Sects…

The benefits are many, but unfortunately, the contribution points required are too high, and so far, no one has been able to redeem it.

It is said that several Senior Brothers were planning to pool funds to exchange for this reward, but they fell into a dispute over “who should stand as Sect Leader”, ending up in a big fight. Eventually, they were all taken to Elixir Cauldron Peak for treatment, attracting a crowd.

Now, these Senior Brothers have been doing long-term tasks outside the sect and have not returned to the Seek Dao Sect for quite some time.

Take “Medicine King Spirit Liquid” for example. The description states that it is a valuable elixir specially refined by the high-ranking members of the Seek Dao Sect and is unique. It can be taken internally or applied externally. It strengthens the body, boosts vital energy, solidifies the divine soul, and consolidates cultivation. Despite its high cost in contribution points, it is still a popular product among the Senior Brothers and Sisters due to its benefits.

Having a sip during a battle ensures the restoration of energy and magic power and accelerates wound healing. Those who have used it have been full of praise.

For example, the “Accidental Insurance for Flying Ships”, which can be purchased for just one contribution point.

“Wait a moment, why is there Accident Insurance for Flying Ships?” Lu Yang felt that this term was somewhat ominous.

The Senior Brother responsible for task issuance said matter-of-factly, “It’s quite normal. There isn’t any transportation which is 100% safe. Even the flying ships operated by the Land Money Trade Association can encounter accidents, like colliding with a Great Power, landing gear failure, the captain going on strike for a pay rise… these are all common accidents. Fortunately, none has resulted in fatalities so far, so it’s nothing unusual.”

“When the chairman of Land Money Trade Association found out that accidents frequently occur on flying ships, he felt it was quite a risk. So, he proposed that passengers pay a small amount of money to be pooled together. In case an accident occurs, the association draws a huge amount of money from this pool to compensate the passengers.”

“In this way, if nothing happens to the ship, passengers only pay a little insignificant amount of money. If an accident does occur and disrupts the passengers’ plans, they’ll be compensated.”

“The chairman named this model ‘Risk Coverage’, simply referred to as ‘Insurance¹, and aggressively promoted it in other businesses.”

“However, you need not worry. Our Seek Dao Sect will always take good care of its disciples. When it comes to insurance, we’ve always been very generous In fact, we ‘ve already purchased various types of insurance for you when you joined the sect, including Accident Insurance for Flying Ships. Insurance sold in the reward column serves to increase the compensation amount.”

With a look of “our sect is of the Righteous Path, unlike those sects of the Demon Path who live from day to day, we will ensure that all necessary insurance is provided”, the Senior Brother seemed quite reliable.

“Our Cultivation World is really developing rapidly, even having things like insurance.”

Lu Yang’s mouth twitched. In his memory, in the past world, insurance was a product of marine transportation. He didn’t expect it to be a product of flying ship transportation in the Cultivation World.

He felt that this was ill-fated and better to buy other items.

In the Cultivation World, it’s necessary to be somewhat superstitious.

As if hearing Lu Yang’s inner voice, the Senior Brother went on to say, “However, a Great Power who studied causality proposed that buying insurance might establish a causal relationship with risks, thereby increasing chances of risks.”

“The trade association staunchly denied this possibility. Both sides debated for a long time, but no formal conclusion was reached.”

“This topic is very research-worthy in the Cultivation World. If the conclusion of the research is that a causal relationship exists, you will be favored by the Great Power who proposed it. If the conclusion is that no causal relationship exists, then the Land Money Trade Association will favor you. It’s a sure-win situation.”

Lu Yang thought to himself that, if his research concluded that there was a causal relationship, the trade association would probably want to butcher him. “One contribution point can be exchanged for one hundred low-grade spirit stones, and one hundred and twenty low-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for one contribution point.”

“Blood Drinking Flying Sword, two thousand contribution points. The longer it’s soaked in blood, the greater it’s power. Judging from the description, it doesn’t seem much like a weapon of the Righteous Path, does it?”

The Senior Brother explained, “It doesn’t necessarily have to be soaked in human blood. Pig blood, cow blood, duck blood are all acceptable. I heard a few days ago that the shop owners who sell Sichuan Hot Pot came up to the mountain and complained. They were questioning which rascal secretly soaked their Blood Drinking Flying Sword in their duck blood?”

“After several investigations, the culprit was found. The punishment given by the hot pot shop owner was to make him drink a pot of red oily soup base The scene was quite something. I reckon he wouldn’t want to eat hot pot again in this lifetime.” The Senior Brother made several clicking sounds, his expression quite subtle, hinting at whatever he might have seen.

Lu Yang continued to browse, “A bottle of Fasting Pill of any flavor, one contribution point.”

“Ancestral Secret Barbecue Recipe, one hundred contribution points.”

“Treasure Sword Floating Array, twenty-five contribution points. This array can be inscribed on weapons, hung at the back, and used anytime due to the lack of constraints from the scabbard. It also includes protective arrays, which can protect the sword under the weather.”

After pondering it over, Lu Yang felt this array set was quite handy. He went ahead and made the purchase.

This array was a semi-hidden array etched in the air. When it fell on the ancient sword, it evaporated like a drop of water in the air, disappearing entirely. The ancient sword simply hovered quietly behind Lu Yang, which was very cool.

As Lu Yang turned around, the ancient sword moved along with him without any lag or delay.

“What a good item.”

“Ten Bulls Strength Pill? One hundred contribution points, one thousand contribution points, ten thousand contribution points? The masterwork of Master Refiner Wu Ming. After taking this pill, one can obtain the strength of ten bulls, capable of sweeping thousands of troops. Usable from the Foundation Establishment Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage.”

Lu Yang thought that if it were not for the half-poisoned Wu Ming, the price would definitely be higher.

However, from the description, this pill was no doubt a treasure. It was extremely effective in battle and worth trying out.

“Junior Sister Tao, I’m sorry for the inconvenience, but do you use contribution points to buy things? I would like to borrow five contribution points. I will return them after I complete my next task.”

Contribution points can be transferred among members.

Junior Sister Tao needed a lot of contribution points to buy things, so lending five more or less doesn’t make much difference to her.

“Sure.”

Lu Yang briskly bought a Ten Bulls Strength Pill.

The task-issuing Senior Brother passed a small porcelain bottle to Lu Yang. Inside the bottle was a golden-colored pill that shimmered slightly under the sunlight, signaling obvious quality.

“I promised earlier that we would celebrate properly when you establish your foundation. I’ve made a reservation at the Hundred Fragrance Building. Let’s go, let’s have a meal. I guarantee everything will be to your taste,” laughed Meng Jingzhou, who also enthusiastically invited Junior Sister Tao.

Junior Sister Tao, would you like to join us?”

As Meng Jingzhou came in second when they joined the sect, he was a Senior Brother to Junior Sister Tao.

Even though Lu Yang has acrophobia, is a serial liar, and even placed a poison in her room without informing her, Junior Sister Tao still considered him a friend since they had completed tasks together.

“Okay, I’ll go.”
