I'm in the world of cultivation, and I get a system for becoming a wealthy urban tycoon?

[The Spirit Ring: Activated after being gifted to a confidante. When the confidante encounters danger, the ring shatters, and the host can teleport to her side. Simultaneously, the confidante will gain a shield (capable of withstanding a full-force attack from a Nascent Soul cultivator).]

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised.

This thing... doesn't seem to be of much use to Lu Yang himself.

But he really liked the reward.

After all, putting aside the generous rewards from the Beauty Cultivation Program and random missions, Lu Yang genuinely hoped that the women around him could live peacefully and safely.

With this Spirit Ring, even if a woman is in danger, Lu Yang can rush to her rescue immediately.

This sense of security cannot be measured by spirit stones.

However, the shield provided by this Spirit Ring can only withstand a full-force attack from a Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of their cultivation, which is slightly insufficient.

After all, any female companion with 100 points of favorability will have a bodyguard puppet.

Moreover, each of them contains a puppet at the Nascent Soul stage.

Ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators at the peak of their cultivation level would find it difficult to pose a truly fatal threat to a beautiful woman in front of a puppet.

This shield is only likely to take effect if you encounter multiple Nascent Soul stage cultivators at the same time, or if you run into a Deity Transformation stage enemy.

If you encounter an opponent at the Nascent Soul stage, the shield provided by this Spirit Ring will be of great use.

After all, even a puppet at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage might not be a match for a cultivator in the early stage of the Divine Transformation stage.

But he's different. He has over two billion low-grade spirit stones. With the power of money, he can twist off the head of a Nascent Soul cultivator and use it as a football!

However, this Spirit Ring is very useful for beauties whose affection level has not yet reached 100 points, as it is equivalent to having an extra layer of protection.

A full 10 Spirit Rings... quite a generous quantity.

Lu Yang doesn't even have that many concubines; there's enough for each person to have one and still have some left over.

With a thought, Lu Yang brought up the image of the Spirit Rhinoceros Ring in his system inventory.

It was a pure white jade ring, slender and round, with faint golden runes on its surface, its luster warm and understated.

It looks elegant and refined, and its appearance is quite impressive.

Then they gave each person one.

Oh right, let's give one to Senior Sister Mu first.

Lu Yang glanced at the reward details for Jiang Shiqing's random mission again.

He discovered that the rewards for encountering a beautiful woman in the random missions all included attribute points, although the specific attributes varied slightly.

This time, the intelligence reward is 0.1 less, but the charm is 0.1 more.

Lu Yang was quite satisfied.

A charm of 0.1, when converted into appearance, actually makes a significant difference.

When Lu Yang first obtained the system, his charm increased from 1 point to 1.1 points, and the change in his appearance was already visible to the naked eye.

By then, Shiqing will be even prettier, so won't he be the one who gets the best treatment?

Lu Yang's lips curled slightly as he turned off the panel rewards.

He planned to take a look at Senior Sister Mu's current favorability rating.

However, the moment his gaze fell on the list of beauties, he suddenly froze.

He blinked, wondering if he was seeing things.

Currently, Lu Yang has six women listed in his roster.

Of course, only Lin Ying and Jiang Shiqing have reached the maximum value of 100 points.

At the bottom of the list is Liu Yaoyao. Since the two don't have much interaction yet, her favorability rating has remained at 10 points without any change.

But now, Liu Yaoyao's favorability rating has inexplicably reached 62 points!

The 60-point favorability chest can be claimed directly!

A huge question mark slowly surfaced in Lu Yang's mind.

What's going on?!

He didn't do anything!

When he checked Mu Shijie's favorability rating yesterday, Liu Yaoyao's favorability rating was still 10 points!

How come my favorability rating for this alluring and charming Martial Aunt Liu has increased so much in just one night?!

Lu Yang scratched his head and racked his brains for a moment.

Is it possible that it's because it's a forbidden area?

Could it be that this Senior Sister Liu has a rather powerful background?

There is a Golden Core stage ancestor or master in the sect.

This Golden Core stage ancestor or master probably entered the forbidden area at the invitation of Qi Yunshu and the others.

Liu Yaoyao also benefited from this and entered the cultivation area with ten times the concentration of spiritual energy.

Then, Liu Yaoyao learned that the changes in the spiritual energy of the forbidden area were caused by him, so her favorability rating inexplicably skyrocketed.

Even so... this favorability rating is rising way too fast, isn't it?

The jump from 10 points to 62 points must have had a significant impact.

With Lu Yang's current intelligence, he is unable to deduce any further clues.

It's certain that something must have happened that he doesn't know about.

However... no matter what happened, it was definitely a good thing for Lu Yang.

Who wouldn't want to get a free favorability chest?

Lu Yang rubbed his hands together excitedly and opened the treasure chest with great anticipation.

[The host's favorability with the beauty (Liu Yaoyao) has reached 60 points. The host receives: 1 low-level rebate card, 40000 cultivation experience points, and 1 Bewitching Bell.]

A smile appeared on Lu Yang's face.

Another low-level rebate card in hand; you can never have too many of these.

The cultivation technique experience is also quite good, a full 40,000 points, which allows Lu Yang to upgrade his Earth-rank cultivation technique from level four to level five.

but……

This Bewitching Bell surprised Lu Yang.

Judging from the name, it doesn't seem to be a magic weapon from the Way of Gold or the Way of the Sword.

Lu Yang immediately retrieved the detailed description of the Bewitching Bell.

【Bewitching Bell (Supreme Spiritual Artifact)】: A divine attack spiritual artifact. When activated, it can release bewitching sound waves to affect the mind of the enemy. The effect is affected by the divine comprehension and spiritual consciousness of both the enemy and the ally. It can affect a Golden Core cultivator for at least three breaths.

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow, somewhat taken aback.

Divine artifacts?

Something's not right, is it?

Logically speaking, the magical treasures rewarded by beauties should be suitable for the beauties' own paths.

Could it be that Martial Aunt Liu Yaoyao cultivates a divine cultivation technique?

She was clearly an inner disciple of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, yet instead of cultivating the sect's golden or sword path, she chose the divine path.

Lu Yang was somewhat confused.

Then something else occurred to him, and his expression became somewhat strange.

No wonder...

Liu Yaoyao will become the resident host of the auction!

Moreover, it is said that the auctions hosted by Liu Yaoyao have achieved quite good sales figures.

Divine arts are known for their ability to manipulate minds and spirits, making them perfect for situations like auctions where it's necessary to stir up emotions and create an atmosphere!

Lu Yang grinned.

That really puts what you've learned into practice!

He took the Bewitching Bell out of his system inventory and examined it closely in his palm.

It was a palm-sized silver bell, made entirely of some unknown spirit silver.

The bell's surface is hollowed out, with nine fox faces, each with a different appearance, meticulously carved.

Some were alluring and smiling, some were aloof and disdainful, some were sorrowful and pitiful; each fox face was lifelike, gleaming with a faint, cold light under the lamplight…

The clasp is made of a special type of red jade and is shaped like a teardrop, suspended from the center of the bell.

Lu Yang swayed gently.

The sound of the bell was extremely soft and delicate, yet it seemed to travel directly through the air and ring against his eardrums.

The clear, melodious sound carried a hint of inexplicable mystery, stirring the soul.

It's definitely a good product.

Divine magical treasures are already rare, and this Bewitching Bell is a top-grade spiritual artifact. If it were sold, it could fetch at least 300,000 to 400,000 low-grade spirit stones. If someone needed it, it could even break 500,000.

However, what Lu Yang has the least shortage of right now is spirit stones.

We can give this to Liu Yaoyao later; it'll be a good opportunity to increase her favorability with her.

Lu Yang secretly harbored some anticipation.

Based on the pattern of the Beauty Cultivation Program, if Liu Yaoyao's favorability is maxed out, the Beauty Cultivation Program will most likely be related to the Divine Path.

They should also reward high-quality cultivation techniques related to the Divine Path!

At that time, he will also be able to practice this technique.

Lu Yang is currently weak in terms of spiritual sense and needs to strengthen it!

Lu Yang put the Bewitching Bell into his storage ring, then got up and left the study to go to the cultivation room to cultivate.

…………

On the eighth day of the second lunar month, the sky was perfectly bright.

The morning light poured down from the east, gilding the entire airship with a pale golden edge. Outside the cabin, the clouds surged and rolled endlessly in the rising sun, dazzlingly white.

After several hours of flight, the Flowing Light Flying Boat gradually approached the territory of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

This mountain range is to Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain what the Golden Sun Mountain Range is to the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect.

From a distance, the mountain range resembles a sleeping dragon stretching across the land.

The mountain mist was not ordinary mountain mist, but a spiritual mist with a faint demonic aura.

It was grayish-white with a faint hint of bluish-purple, reflecting an eerie and colorful glow in the morning light.

The ancient trees in the mountains soar into the clouds, their dense canopies like giant umbrellas, layer upon layer, shrouding the mountainside.

Even from a great distance, one could hear the roars of various monsters coming from deep within the mountains.

Some sounds were deep and rumbling, others sharp and piercing, occasionally interspersed with the long cries of unknown giant birds, echoing endlessly through the valley.

The entire mountain range was filled with a strong sense of malevolence.

Even through the protective array of the flying boat, one could vaguely feel that wild and primal sense of oppression.

Lu Yang finished his night of cultivation and slowly opened his eyes.

The lingering spiritual energy in the room had not yet dissipated, and under the light of the spirit lamp, it turned into a thin mist, slowly sinking into the patterns of the spirit-gathering array.

He first completed his daily cultivation tasks, and then casually cast a cleansing spell on himself.

He then straightened his robes, pushed open the door, and walked out of the cultivation room.

He went down the white jade staircase to the sixth-floor corridor. He first used the spirit beast mark to have Qing Tong call out to him, so that she would come out.

He then headed towards Mu Yunxue's room.

He had just arrived at Mu Yunxue's room when the door opened silently before he could even raise his hand to knock.

Mu Yunxue stood inside the door.

Today she changed into a moon-white, wide-sleeved long dress. The dress was plain and unpatterned, with only a few very faint silver cloud patterns embroidered on the cuffs and collar, giving it an elegant and refined look.

Her long, jet-black hair was simply tied back with a plain white ribbon, with a few stray strands falling around her ears, making her already cool and beautiful face even more radiant.

She was bare-faced and without makeup, yet she was still breathtakingly beautiful.

Lu Yang's eyes lit up, and his voice was clear and melodious, tinged with laughter: "Good morning, Senior Sister. You are as beautiful and charming as ever today."

Mu Yunxue was about to say something when she heard this and paused slightly.

On that usually expressionless, cool and pretty face, her cherry lips curved up almost imperceptibly, the curve was extremely shallow and quick, and she returned to calm in an instant.

She looked up at Lu Yang, her voice as cool and calm as ever, and slowly said, "Good morning."

Just then, the door not far away was suddenly pushed open from the inside, and a cheerful, childlike voice rang out: "Young Master! Qing Tong is here!"

A golden figure rushed out of the door at a speed too fast for the naked eye to detect, creating a rustling sound.

The next moment, Lu Qingtong had already steadily climbed onto Lu Yang's back, her two little hands wrapped around his neck, and her delicate, exquisite face peeked out from Lu Yang's shoulder with a bright and radiant smile.

Her long, flowing golden hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her blue eyes were filled with undisguised affection and joy.

Mu Yunxue: "?"

She slightly raised her eyes, her deep, dark eyes landing on Lu Qingtong, her gaze flickering slightly.

Who is this?

Why are you so close to Junior Brother Lu?

She felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

Lu Qingtong noticed the gaze and turned her head, her blue pupils reflecting Mu Yunxue's expressionless, beautiful face.

She tilted her head, seemingly deep in thought, then a bright, innocent smile spread across her delicate, adorable face as she called out in a clear, melodious voice, "Young Master, is this the Young Master's wife? Hello, Young Master's wife!"

Mu Yunxue: "????"
