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

[Intermediate Mercenary Contract: Consumes spirit stones to hire one temporary mercenary puppet (Cultivation level selection: Nascent Soul Perfection - 3 million mid-grade spirit stones/day; Void Refinement Perfection - 3000 million mid-grade spirit stones/day; Body Integration Perfection - 300 million mid-grade spirit stones/day). The mercenary is absolutely loyal but has no independent judgment. The puppet automatically disappears upon expiration. A maximum of one mercenary can be hired at a time!]

Lu Yang looked at the intermediate mercenary contract and nodded slightly.

Although he himself could use the [power of money] to break through his cultivation level and gain improvement.

However, the price is much higher than hiring mercenaries.

It would take him over four billion to raise his cultivation to the peak of the Void Refinement stage, while hiring a servant for a day would only cost thirty million mid-grade spirit stones!

He can even hire stronger mercenaries who have reached the peak of the Fusion Realm!

If he were to rely on the power of money to break through to the Perfected Integration Realm, it would probably cost at least several hundred billion, or even several hundred billion, mid-grade spirit stones.

Overall, this thing is pretty good.

However, this thing isn't very useful in the Canglan Realm.

After all, the upper limit of power in the Canglan Realm is only the Nascent Soul stage, and Wang Dadu has already reached the Nascent Soul stage, so he doesn't need mercenaries at all.

However, if he goes to the Spirit Realm in the future, this intermediate mercenary contract will come in very handy.

Even in the spirit realm, a mercenary who has reached the perfect state of integration would probably be considered a top-tier fighter!

Then Lu Yang remembered that he still had a low-level mercenary contract that he hadn't used.

Unfortunately, the highest level mercenary contract can only hire mercenaries at the Nascent Soul stage, which seems to have little meaning for Lu Yang at the moment.

Only when there is a relative shortage of manpower will we hire someone to lend a hand.

Lu Yang shook his head inwardly, deciding not to think about it anymore.

At this point, he had finished tallying up all his gains from the past two days.

He stood up from the futon, stretched languidly, and his muscles cracked slightly.

Lu Yang pondered for a moment, then took out the peculiar stone tablet that Senior Sister Mu had given him. The surface of the stone tablet was pitted and covered with ancient and mysterious engravings. It was cold to the touch and carried an indescribable sense of weight.

After breaking through to the Void Refinement stage, Lu Yang improved in all aspects. Even with only a few insights into the "Golden Source Heavenly Record," he gained a great deal, and inspiration kept flowing.

Taking advantage of the current favorable time, Lu Yang plans to make the most of it and thoroughly deduce the "Jinyuan Tongtianlu".

Lu Yang brewed himself a cup of Enlightenment Tea. The amber-colored tea rippled slightly in the cup, and a delicate fragrance filled the cultivation room. Just one sip made his mind clear and his thoughts transparent.

He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and completely immersed his mind in the stone tablet. Drawing on his profound understanding of the Great Dao of Metal during his Refinement stage, he began to summarize and deduce the "Record of the Golden Source Connecting Heaven" little by little.

…………

Inside the bedroom of the White Jade Palace.

Qin Nanyue's eyelashes trembled slightly as she slowly opened her eyes, which still held a hint of tenderness and a sense of bewilderment after the initial excitement.

Soon, her eyes focused, she smelled a familiar scent, and the absurd scene from last night involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

Her pretty face immediately turned red, and she quickly turned to look around.

Jiang Shiqing was still fast asleep on one side, her bright and beautiful face showing signs of fatigue, but her cherry lips were slightly upturned, carrying a hint of indescribable satisfaction.

Qin Nanyue's lips twitched. This girl seemed to have a special fondness for dual cultivation. Despite having the lowest cultivation level, she was the most obsessed.

She was definitely the one who suffered the most.

Qin Nanyue didn't understand why this guy was so energetic.

Qin Nanyue struggled to sit up in bed, feeling the soreness spreading from her bones. She frowned involuntarily. After this, she didn't want to come back for the next seven days.

That pervert is a real pervert!

Qin Nanyue gritted her teeth and didn't disturb Jiang Shiqing, who was sleeping, lest she hug her again.

She quietly got out of bed, used several cleaning spells to clean herself up, took out a set of black outfits from her storage bag and changed into them, gathered her long hair behind her head and tied it into a neat high ponytail with a red ribbon.

She tiptoed open the door and slipped out of the bedroom.

Inside the hall, Liu Yaoyao was using her cleaning skills to clean the room. Her oval face was flushed with satisfaction, and her movements were full of captivating charm.

Even though Qin Nanyue herself is a woman, she has to admit that Senior Sister Liu Yaoyao is truly feminine.

Hmm...like a vixen.

Hearing the noise, Liu Yaoyao turned around and saw Qin Nanyue. A teasing smile appeared on her lips: "Junior Sister Qin, have you rested well?"

Qin Nanyue retorted irritably, "Senior Sister Yaoyao, you're just like Shiqing, why did you drag me along and make that guy so excited?"

Liu Yaoyao said with a half-smile, "I'm actually helping you, otherwise you'd be suffering even more by yourself."

Qin Nanyue opened her mouth, but for a moment she was speechless.

That's not wrong...

When three people are together, they can take turns to rest, which is easier than carrying the whole burden alone from beginning to end.

Qin Nanyue crossed her arms and said thoughtfully, "Indeed, that guy seems to be nearing his limit. With the three of us working together, he doesn't seem so scary after all."

Liu Yaoyao smiled slightly, her eyes sparkling: "So now you understand the good intentions Shiqing and I have put in, right?"

Qin Nanyue nodded silently.

Then she had a bold idea.

The three of them working together are almost able to hold their own against that guy.

What if we add Sakura to the mix?

With the four of them together, wouldn't that make that pervert surrender?!

Thinking of how arrogantly he bullied her during their perverted dual cultivation, Qin Nanyue felt a little eager to try it herself.

I want him to surrender and know how powerful he is!

However, Qin Nanyue quickly realized what was happening. Her pretty face flushed slightly, and she felt completely bewildered.

Qin Nanyue, what are you thinking about?!

What happened yesterday was just too absurd!

You want to drag Sakura along too?!

Could it be that I've really become a cultivator of the Joyful Union Sect?!

Qin Nanyue was momentarily disillusioned and felt completely numb.

Liu Yaoyao glanced at Qin Nanyue with some confusion. She wondered what was wrong with her junior sister, who suddenly changed her expression.

Liu Yaoyao tentatively called out, "Junior Sister Nanyue? What's wrong?"

Qin Nanyue snapped back to reality, quickly banishing the chilling thoughts from her mind. She coughed lightly, forcing herself to remain calm, and said, "It's nothing. By the way, where's that pervert?"

Liu Yaoyao smiled slightly: "Young Master is currently cultivating."

Qin Nanyue was immediately startled and quickly said, "Then I need to go cultivate too! This insane cultivation speed is too fast!"

She was originally two minor levels higher than this guy in terms of cultivation level.

As it turns out, this guy is now at the Foundation Establishment stage, just like her!

Moreover, judging by this guy's speed, it probably won't be long before he breaks through again.

If I don't work harder, I'll be left far behind by him!

That won't do!

He's already this arrogant at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. What will happen when he breaks through to the next level?

During dual cultivation, I'd probably really be like a toy, completely at his mercy.

The thought had barely crossed her mind when Qin Nanyue was startled again. Why was she still thinking about these things?!

It's all that pervert's fault!

She quickly said, "Senior Sister Yaoyao, I'm going to cultivate too!"

Liu Yaoyao was taken aback: "Aren't you going to eat something first? I've prepared quite a lot of spiritual food."

"No way! I'm not that much of a pervert; my demands for food aren't that high!"

With that, Qin Nanyue tossed her high ponytail and strode quickly to another cultivation room.

Liu Yaoyao smiled helplessly, glanced at the tightly closed cultivation room, thought for a moment, brewed herself a pot of enlightenment tea, and began to comprehend her family's inherited cultivation technique, "The Record of Bewitching the Mind and Forgetting Worries".

She was also worried about being left behind by the young master.

However, unlike Qin Nanyue's concerns, what she worried about was that her cultivation level was too far behind the young master's. If the young master thought she was useless and didn't want her anymore, she would probably want to die.
