Who Let Him Cultivate?!

“Of course, not everything can be considered a task, there is a prerequisite for these three types of tasks; that is, to defend the Righteous Path.” “Coincidentally, Brother Man Gu found a task suitable for us. It was too challenging for him to accomplish alone, so he called us for help.”

Without saying much, Man Gu nodded in acknowledgment, exhibiting the humility of a true gentleman.

” When will we depart?” Lu Yang asked.

“How about early tomorrow morning?” Meng Jingzhou suggested.

This was just what Lu Yang wanted. He planned to go to the Task Hall to exchange some items before setting off. Having a pile of contribution points in hand always made him restless.

“The chilled gourd, the water inside cools quickly making it incredibly refreshing. It’s an excellent choice for those who prefer cold water. Three contribution points.”

“Multi-functional pocket knife, includes an ear pick, nail clipper, marker pen, compass, and other functions. It’s a necessity for outdoor outings. Ten contribution points.”

“The Pagoda Dragon Blood Saber, formerly a magic artifact of a Demon Path cultivator. Activated by dragon’s blood to stimulate its bloodthirsty nature, its ferociousness is suppressed by Buddhist teaching. It cuts through flesh and bone as if they were sacks of flour. The Demon Path aura of this saber has been thoroughly eradicated and its viciousness completely suppressed, but its sharpness has slightly declined. The selling price is three hundred contribution points.”

“A fragment of the ‘Moksha Mind Method’, a cultivation method left by a monk after self-immolation. It is suspected to be his original creation, the authenticity of the original version is unverifiable. This fragment can calm the restless heart, facilitating quick concentration. The selling price is one thousand five hundred contribution points.”

Lu Yang looked at several things in succession, none of which he felt drawn to, so he asked the Senior Brother on duty.

“Senior Brother, I need to venture out tomorrow for training and am looking to buy some defensive tools. Can you make any recommendations?”

The Senior Brother was tall and burly, with a gruff appearance that could stop a crying child at a glance. He looked like the typical object of eradication for a chivalrous hero.

After taking a look at Lu Yang, this senior brother, realizing that he was a new recruit, finally saw himself as an elder brother, which somewhat softened his demeanor.

After so many years, he was finally no longer at the bottom of the disciples.

“How much are you planning to spend in terms of contribution points and spirit stones?”

“Three hundred contribution points. No spirit stones.”

“You can call me Senior Brother Li Dan. You are in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, so the things you can use are not of a high grade and therefore won’t demand too many contribution points.”

With an appearance that seemed ferocious, Li Dan was actually quite warm-hearted.

Senior Brother Li Dan skillfully scrolled through the exchange list, introducing various protective tools: “Hundred Wars Heart Protecting Mirror, to be worn on one’s chest. It can withstand a full-force attack from a peak-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. Only needs two hundred contribution points.”

Just as Lu Yang was considering whether to buy one for self-preservation, he heard a timid voice say, “Lu… Junior Brother Lu, actually, you don’t need to buy the Heart Protecting Mirror here. The sesame seed cakes from the food court can also withstand a full-force attack from a peak-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator and it’s even cheaper.”

The voice gradually faded, becoming almost as quiet as the buzzing of a mosquito. If Lu Yang had not already reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, with his heightened five senses, he wouldn’t have been able to hear it clearly.

“Senior Sister Zhou LuLu?” Lu Yang was surprised. He did not expect to see Senior Sister Zhou LuLu there.

When he first joined the Seek Dao Sect, he spent a month in the Scripture Pavilion. Whenever he had doubts, he would ask Senior Sister Zhou LuLu. However, he hadn’t seen her since Yun Zhi had him confined for Cultivation on Sky Gate Mountain a year ago.

“Senior Sister.” Li Dan, being only one cycle older than Lu Yang, had to call Zhou LuLu Senior Sister.

“Yeah… it’s me.” Zhou LuLu spoke nervously. She had just completed a task and had come to exchange her rewards, just as she happened to bump into Lu Yang.

“You… carry on looking. I… I just wanted to give a small suggestion. I didn’t mean anything else.” Confronted with the two men’s gaze, Zhou LuLu backed away to make herself less conspicuous. She would exchange her rewards after Lu Yang finished making his exchanges.

They both then ignored Zhou LuLu.

“This is a Mountain Striking Hammer. Upon striking, it creates a distracting vibration, disrupting the rhythm of an opponent’s array or talisman drawing. It has a certain counteractive effect against both Array Cultivators and Talisman Cultivators. However, cultivators proficient in array methods and talismans tend to have firm determination and can maintain their calm in a crisis, adjusting their rhythm when encountering interference. Therefore, the impact of the Mountain Striking Hammer would be significantly reduced. It costs two hundred and seventy contribution points.”

Lu Yang nodded. This was also a good thing. He might just encounter Array Cultivators and Talisman Cultivators as opponents.

Except for those who had been immersed in this array method and talisman for decades, the Mountain Striking Hammer would be effective.

Senior Sister Zhou LuLu quietly muttered again, “The fried dough sticks from the food court have even better effects.”

Both of them pretended not to hear.

“Senior Brother Li, do we have any small tools here for sneak attacks?”

Li Dan solemnly responded, “Junior Brother, do you know that the Seek Dao Sect is a famous Righteous Sect?”

“So?”

“You should ask this question more discreetly.”

Lu Yang complied with an ‘Oh’.

Li Dan then held down the exchange list and swiped down hard. The descriptions of various goods rolled up rapidly. Finding the right timing, he pressed down on the list and continued to explain: “This is the Jade Fragment Needle. It’s as thin as a cattle hair and when infused with Spiritual Energy, it becomes incomparably sharp. It can pierce through the Barrier Door, but it’s difficult to get the hang of, requiring much practice, and its price is steep.” “This is the Mysterious Space Nail. In the face of a strong enemy, when they’re caught off guard, you can grab a handful and throw them towards the opponent’s seven orifices, achieving unexpected results. It’s easy to handle and the price is also suitable.”

Lu Yang nodded. This thing was really not expensive and could even be described as extremely cost-effective.

“The rice from the food court is more effective than this.” Senior Sister Zhou LuLu reminded from aside.

Brother Li Dan could no longer tolerate Senior Sister Zhou LuLu’s murmuring. He turned abruptly, startling Zhou LuLu.

Zhou LuLu lowered her head and didn’t dare to look straight at Li Dan, whose face was full of coarse lines. She didn’t mean to make trouble, but the food from the food court was genuinely effective. She wanted to recommend it directly to Lu Yang, but was too embarrassed.

Seeing Zhou LuLu like this, Li Dan realized that she meant no harm, and his tone involuntarily softened: “Senior Sister Zhou, I understand that you’re from Hundred Refinement Peak, but you can’t just attract business for Hundred Refinement Peak and mislead our new Junior Brother!”

“Also, Junior Brother Lu, think about it; apart from being delicious, cost- effective, sturdy, multifunctional (can be used as both a weapon and a meal), what other benefits do the food court’s cuisine offer?”

Lu Yang: “…”

Aren’t these benefits plentiful enough?

After giving it some thought, Li Dan realized that apart from being unsuitable for combat due to its shape, the food court’s food indeed had no flaws.

“Why don’t you, Senior Sister Zhou, take Junior Brother Lu for a tour of the food court?”

Zhou LuLu’s eyes lit up and she immediately pulled Lu Yang to the food court.

Lu Yang found that Senior Sister Zhou was terrifyingly strong. He couldn’t break free from her grip and also had no idea what realm Senior Sister Zhou was in.

“Senior Sister Zhou, are you from Hundred Refinement Peak?”

Hundred Refinement Peak, under the control of the Fifth Elder, carries out both refining and food court duties, which, most of the time, are one and the same.

Zhou LuLu responded, “Yes, I am a disciple of Hundred Refinement Peak.”

“But I often see you reading books in the Scripture Pavilion, and none of them seem to be about refining?”

Lu Yang was somewhat puzzled. Shouldn’t the disciples of Hundred Refinement Peak be studying refining?
