Gou Dao Changsheng: Starting from the Reincarnation of a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 8 Today's Decision
Hundreds of years ago, a foundation-building cultivator from the Xuanyang Sect did some statistics when he had nothing better to do.

With the presence of the green jade wall in the Merit Examination Hall, it became easier to search for spiritual objects and obtain rewards. The number of cultivators who advanced to the foundation-building stage in the sect increased by 30%.

This was a major event that affected the sect's inheritance and directly alarmed the Jindan elders of the Xuanyang Sect.

Later, in order to update the tasks in a timely manner, the jade disc was personally taken by the sect's Jindan ancestor.

He melted many high-quality spiritual materials and used his great magical power to refine them into a forbidden magic weapon - the Qingling Sound Transmission Bi.

The main body of the Qingling Sound Transmission Jade is placed in the master's hall and is controlled by the sect's Jindan ancestor.

Although the jade disk in the Lingyang Peak Examination Pavilion is only a sub-body, it is also a top-grade magic weapon with eight magic prohibitions.

In the world of cultivating immortals, magic tools are divided into four grades according to the different restrictions on sacrifices and refining, namely top grade, upper grade, middle grade and lower grade, with three restrictions forming one grade.

Magical instruments that contain one to three magical prohibitions are low-grade magical instruments, those that contain four to six magical prohibitions are medium-grade magical instruments, those that contain seven to nine magical prohibitions are high-grade magical instruments, and those that contain ten to twelve magical prohibitions are top-grade magical instruments.

The magic power of Qigong practitioners is shallow, so they mostly use low-grade and medium-grade magic tools.

Only after the foundation-building cultivators have established a foundation for their Taoism and have a lifespan and magical powers far exceeding those of the Qi-cultivating cultivators can they sacrifice and control high-quality and ultimate magical instruments.

The twelve magic prohibitions were sacrificed and refined into a treasure prohibition, and after going through the calamity of the magic weapon taking shape, it became a magic weapon controlled by the Jindan cultivator.

Fang Yi looked at the mission information that kept appearing and disappearing on the jade wall.

The ones that appear are newly assigned tasks, and the ones that disappear are tasks that have already been accepted by monks.

"Task A: Acquire Rank 2 Water and Wood Attribute Demon Pills over a long period of time. Quantity is unlimited. Reward: 1,000 Contribution Points per pill."

"Mission B: The Spiritual Slaughtering Academy is recruiting Spiritual Slaughter Masters. Requires a mid-stage Qi training master or above. Remuneration: 80 low-grade spirit stones per year."

"Mission C1: Eliminate the demonic beasts in Qinghefang. Reward: One hundred low-grade spirit stones."

Fang Yi first skipped many unfinished tasks such as refining pills and refining magical instruments.

Among the hundreds of arts of cultivating immortality, the four of alchemy, talismans, formations and weapons are the most important, and any one of them requires high qualifications and financial resources.

Now that my storage bag is empty, I should first find a more stable source of income.

After deducting the tasks that require a certain level of cultivation, those with unreasonable rewards, or those that are too dangerous, there are only a few tasks left.

Fang Yi glanced at a task and his eyes lit up.

"Central Class B: Lingyang Peak Thousand Plant Garden is recruiting cultivators to cultivate spiritual fields. No cultivation level required. Must be proficient in Minor Cloud Rain Technique, Minor Gengjin Sword Finger, and Minor Thick Earth Technique. Remuneration: 30 low-grade spirit stones per year."

Fang Yi took out his disciple token and prepared to take on the task when a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Brother Fang!"

"Dacheng?"

Fang Yi turned around and saw that it was Fan Dacheng not far away.

Fan Dacheng was dressed in tight clothes and shorts. His temperament had changed a little compared to before, and his every move was more decisive and swift.

There were two monks with similar attire beside him, half a step behind him, and it was obvious that Fan Dacheng was the leader.

Seeing Fang Yi looking at him, Fan Dacheng quickened his pace, and in a few breaths they were beside Fang Yi.

"Brother Fang, do you want to go hunting monsters with me?"

"How can I cultivate with just the meager annual salary from the sect?"

Fang Yi and Fan Dacheng already knew each other in the secular world and had occasionally visited each other over the past few months, but they never expected to meet in this examination hall today.

Seeing Fang Yi holding the disciple token and choosing a task, Fan Dacheng wanted to invite him to hunt monsters together.

After all, they had known each other for several years, and he knew best how strong the other party was. He was far superior to himself in both martial arts and character.

That day on the way to Xuanyang Sect to become a disciple, it was thanks to Fang Yi's repeated commands and dispatches that the demon wolf was restrained.

This saved him from dying in the wolf's mouth like other immortal seedlings.

I recall the figure of the great cultivator who was building his foundation on the top of Luanyun, stepping on wind and thunder, and controlling clouds and mist.

Fan Dacheng's heart was burning with excitement.

This is what a man should do!

He was born as an ordinary warrior. Although he had heard of the name of the immortal in the past, he had never seen such a scene with his own eyes.

They are all cultivators of the Xuanyang Sect, so why can't he become a high-ranking foundation-building cultivator?

Fan Dacheng pointed at the two burly men behind him and introduced them to Fang Yi. "Brother Fang, this is Zhang Long, and this is Zhao Hu, both of whom are also warriors from the mortal world."

"Although they are only at the first level of Qi training, they are quite skilled. I have teamed up with them several times and have hunted monsters in the Qingyun Mountains, and we have always gained a lot."

As Fan Dacheng spoke, in order to increase his persuasiveness, he took out from his storage bag the low-grade magical weapon, the Mountain-Breaking Hammer, which he had just exchanged in the Refining Pavilion.

This mountain-breaking hammer has an ochre-colored glow on its body and a faint shadow of a mountain emerging from its head, making it look quite extraordinary.

In Fang Yi's opinion, this magic weapon can be considered a fine product even among the lower-grade magic weapons.

Unlike ordinary low-grade magic tools, only a single restriction was used for the convenience of refining.

Just like the disciple token of the Xuanyang Sect, it only has a restriction that allows you to take a picture.

This Mountain-Breaking Hammer is different, judging by the aura surrounding it.

There are at least two different types of restrictions: suppression and gravity.

The two restrictions are superimposed and connected to each other, and their power is greater than that of magic weapons of the same level, so the price is naturally higher than that of magic weapons of the same level.

This magical weapon is combined with Fan Dacheng's golden bell cover.

Unless one is proficient in spiritual magic, he will not be a match for the inferior monsters in the Qingyun Mountains.

As for Fan Dacheng, who holds the Mountain-Breaking Hammer, if he survives in the Qingyun Mountains, he will surely reap great rewards.

But Fang Yi was not tempted and shook his head to reject Fan Dacheng.

With the current level of cultivation and lifespan, there is no need to live on the edge of a knife. The best solution is to develop steadily and accumulate foundation.

“Dacheng, the Qingyun Mountains are overrun with monsters and beasts, and my cultivation is limited.

I will consider going monster hunting after I have made some breakthroughs in my cultivation and have prepared enough magical instruments and talismans.

Next time, I’ll have the chance to meet you again.”

Fan Dacheng was a little surprised when he heard what Fang Yi said. Why did he change his temper?

You should know that among this group of immortal seedlings, Fang Yi has the hottest temper.

He was the first one to rush forward and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Rock Wolf that day, and Fan Dacheng had no chance to stop him.

Maybe he was injured by the rock wolf and fell into a coma, so he learned a lesson, but this is too cautious.

He took a step to Fang Yi's side and tried to persuade him in a low voice.

"Brother Fang, you and I have ordinary talents, and without spirit stones, our progress will inevitably be slow.

As I get older, I'm afraid it will be even harder to break through."

Fan Dacheng persuaded sincerely.

“Brother, your spiritual roots are higher than mine.

But after all, she doesn't have the outstanding talent of top-grade spiritual roots like Sister Cai'er, and she doesn't have the support of the sect.

If this continues, as he gets older, it might be difficult for him to even break through the late stage of Qi training, let alone become a foundation-building cultivator.

Big Brother, don’t you want to build your foundation?”

When he saw Fan Dacheng say the words "foundation building and major repair", his eyes were filled with heat.

Fang Yi understood.

After witnessing this magnificent world of immortal cultivation, his friends in this life also began to develop their own ambitions.

Yes, in this world of immortal cultivation, who doesn’t yearn for a higher realm and a longer lifespan?

But Fang Yi still refused.

Although they both have middle-grade spiritual roots, unlike Fan Dacheng, he has better options.

Now he has mastered the Sutra of Life and Death, and his life span is long.

Before the age of 100, there is no need to worry about the decline of qi and blood, and there is no limit of sixty years, so there is enough time to accumulate foundation.

At the first level of Qi training, with such a low level of cultivation, he went to Qingyun Mountains to hunt monsters.

Too dangerous
