Longevity Fairy: Sister, Please Wait A Little Longer

Chapter 20 020: Simple and Rough

Wealth moves people's hearts, and this statement is absolutely true.

After the test with two spirit stones, at least thirty percent of the miscellaneous disciples became excited.

Chu Bai took out ten more spirit stones, the impact of which was powerful enough to temporarily make them forget about Zhou Fatty's threat.

This time, Chu Bai preemptively silenced Fatty and brought two disciples from the True Law Enforcement Hall, one to record and the other to distribute spirit stone rewards to the informants.

Although there was no physical evidence for the time being, there were plenty of eyewitnesses, and all the disciples who came forward guaranteed the truth with their lives.

Chu Bai wanted to stab Zhou Fatty to death with a sword, but he hadn't shed blood yet, lacking a bit of ruthlessness.

When Zhou Boran was dragged away like a dead dog, Chu Bai asked everyone to sit down, and he sat down as well. The initial trust had been established, so he directly announced the second matter.

"The Law Enforcement Hall has indeed obtained evidence of Zhou Fatty's crimes. I was actually just testing the loyalty of my junior brothers to the sect."

Chu Bai spoke, and the hundred people sat attentively, listening carefully.

There was an element of the Law Enforcement Hall's reputation in this, as well as the lingering effects of wealth moving people's hearts.

Chu Bai smiled, "The test results are good. Most of the junior brothers are still loyal to the Azure Cloud Sect. With that said, the next matter will be easy to handle."

After saying this, Chu Bai reached into his storage bag again and took out a jade slip, saying straightforwardly, "This is a foundational cultivation technique specially created for miscellaneous disciples of the sect. Whether it's a pseudo Spirit Vein or a miscellaneous Spirit Vein, you can cultivate it.

Its grade is not as high as the 'Bone Forging Technique' practiced by outer disciples, but it is faster in terms of finding qi sensations, guiding qi into the body, and opening up the meridians.

However, the pain and life force consumption required to cultivate this technique are stronger than the Bone Forging Technique. Are you willing to cultivate it?"

"I'm willing, Senior Brother, I'm willing!"

A tall and thin miscellaneous disciple suddenly stood up and shouted loudly.

"Insolence!"

"Er Gou, sit down. Does a Law Enforcement Hall senior brother have any right to interrupt when another senior brother is speaking?!"

A group of disciples scolded the young man named Er Gou and made him sit back down.

Chu Bai, however, said, "It's alright. The sect belongs to all of us. Previously, everyone felt that the sect didn't pay enough attention to miscellaneous disciples, but it was actually because the elders hadn't figured out a way to help everyone.

My Azure Cloud Sect has nearly a hundred thousand miscellaneous disciples, and it's impossible to take care of everyone. So today is an attempt, offering an imperfect technique for everyone to cultivate. If anyone is unwilling, they can speak up, after all, if they can't reach the Qi Refining Stage, it's difficult to make up for the life force consumed."

The Qi Refining Stage is called a cultivator, and anyone below the Qi Refining Stage is an ordinary person.

In this world, the average lifespan of ordinary people is less than forty years.

But a cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining can live up to sixty years, a bit higher for the second level of Qi Refining, and even higher for the third level of Qi Refining, until the Foundation Building stage is completed, undergoing a qualitative change.

So breaking through to the first level of Qi Refining by burning one's life is considered a gain.

Of course, if one can't cultivate, they have to spend treasures that even selling themselves wouldn't be enough to make up for that life force.

On the high slope of the mountain, the sun was shining brightly, and the hundred-person team was silent.

Chu Bai said, "You don't have to rush, this is just the initial foundational technique. In the future, there will be more perfect and less costly new techniques given to everyone."

The gazes of over a hundred people were intense, and the scene left a deep impression on the inner disciple in the blue robe who had been responsible for recording behind Chu Bai.

Miscellaneous disciples versus inner disciples, a world of difference. As the pride of heaven, they had never paid attention to these menial workers.

Miscellaneous disciples represented the lack of cultivation potential and could only be ordinary people for their entire lives.

However, the light shining in the eyes of these ordinary people at this moment reminded him of the day when he tested for a Spirit Vein before he embarked on the path of cultivation.

He had been assigned by his master to assist this senior brother, thinking at first that it was just investigating a corruption case. But now it seemed that the jade slip in this senior brother's hand was the most important thing.

Chu Bai continued, "No one is speaking. Can I understand that everyone wants the technique in my hand?"

"Yes!"

It is still the young man named Er Gou as before.

This time, there was no objection.

"Yes, yes, Senior Brother!"

"Senior Brother, ten years ago, I became a miscellaneous disciple because my aptitude was not good enough, but my dream is still to cultivate. I want to become a cultivator, I want to cultivate!"

"Yes, Senior Brother, I know that Dao Sect arranged for us to come to the mining area to test us by giving us the method of Body Refining. It's just a matter of lifespan. When I was a child, I calculated my life span. My eldest brother can live to be eighty years old. If I use half of it for cultivation, what's the harm!"

For a while, the crowd was stirred up.

The system has said that cultivating is a way to accumulate wealth.

For a cultivation method, Chu Bai can directly obtain it at the age of six.

If it were Xiao Qingrou, without Chu Bai's intervention, she might still be an ordinary person.

But for these miscellaneous disciples who have been mining for five or six years, isn't swinging a hoe every day burning their lifespan and wasting their lives?

Perhaps some of the people present do not understand the drawbacks of certain cultivation methods thoroughly, but when a cultivation method is presented, no one can refuse.

"Good!"

Chu Bai waved his hand, "Since everyone wants it, let's move on to the next step. There is only one cultivation method. Based on one thousand catties of ore, whoever completes the task of one thousand catties of Spirit Vein ore first will obtain the Tian Lang Jue!"

In a mine, there are approximately one hundred thousand catties of Spirit Vein ore produced daily.

Chu Bai divided it by one hundred, so he needed one thousand catties.

He didn't know how much ore it would take to produce one thousand catties of Spirit Vein ore, nor did he know how many pieces of Low Grade Spirit Stone one thousand catties of ore could be transformed into, but Chu Bai wouldn't do something for free.

Even if he had previously used Spirit Stones to guide the emotions of the miscellaneous disciples, he made them bow before deciding the ownership of the Spirit Stones.

In the competition of the immortal path, those with inadequate aptitude must strive even harder.

Chu Bai extended his thumb and pinky, raising his arm, "I will only wait for six hours. If no one completes it after six hours, it means that none of you are destined for this cultivation method."

"It won't happen!"

"Senior Brother, please rest assured, give me five hours, it's just one thousand catties of ore!"

"Senior Brother, I only need four hours!"

"Three hours!"

"Two hours!"

Hundreds of people rushed into the dark mine like hungry wolves descending from a mountain.

Chu Bai added, "No cheating allowed. Anyone who dares to cheat will immediately go and keep Zhou Fatty company!"

"Yes, Senior Brother!"

"Senior Brother, please rest assured, our Azure Cloud Sect is a prestigious sect, upright and honest. Although we are miscellaneous disciples, we still have the backbone of Azure Cloud Sect!"

At night,

Inside the main hall of the outer sect, Nan Gongli, who still had her face covered by a light veil, looked at the phrase "the backbone of Azure Cloud Sect" repeatedly.

If she remembered correctly, there weren't many good common identities among the miscellaneous disciples of Qingyun.

A group of country bumpkins who could say such ambitious words was quite rare.

Nan Gongli asked the female elder not far away, "So, that Tian Lang Gong, huh, who was it finally given to? The miscellaneous disciple named Er Gou?"

The female elder's surname was also Zhou, but she had no relation to Zhou Boran and came from the Law Enforcement Hall.

Upon hearing this, Elder Zhou shook her head and said, "It was given to a senior disciple named Wang Yong. He completed the daily task in just four hours, which is something that can't be accomplished even in six hours."

Perhaps, as Chu Bai said, the miscellaneous disciples have been suppressed for too long. Without any schemes or tricks, just giving them a piece of meat to eat, they can turn into howling wolves.
