My cultivation shop refreshes daily.

After seeing the indignant Zhu Ling off, Sima Yi returned to the Immortal Emperor Society's activity room and asked Zhou Yu, "Were you really not joking about what you said to Zhu Ling just now?"

Which sentence are you referring to?

"You say you can learn the Taiyi Divine Skill in a single day?" Sima Yi replied, "My family has had contact with the Zhu family, so I have some understanding of the Taiyi Divine Skill. This thing is definitely not something that can be learned in a day..."

Zhou Yu raised his hand to interrupt Sima Yi, "You don't believe me, do you? Then your teacher has to make a bet with you, a million..."

Sima Yi quickly changed his tune, saying, "It's not that I don't trust you. After all, you've even mastered the obscure and difficult Taixu Divine Scripture, so the Taiyi Divine Skill probably won't be too difficult for you. I just want to say... isn't one day a bit too short?"

"If you need it, I can actually try to get you a few more days."

Hearing Sima Yi's words, Zhou Yu showed a gratified expression and gently patted Sima Yi's shoulder, "You're not a bad person, but your vision is too narrow."

"If you hadn't said those two heartfelt words, I would have wanted Gao Ying to be your teacher."

Gao Ying, standing to the side: "? You didn't secretly curse at me, did you?"

"Don't worry," Zhou Yu replied, "You can trust me. There was this guy who had a terminal illness and only three months to live, but I told him to invest in stocks, and he's lived for five years now. Isn't that incredible?"

Sima Yi looked surprised. "How is this possible? How did you do that?"

Zhou Yu: "Because he can't swallow this insult."

Sima Yi: "..."

……

After returning home from school, Zhou Yu ate dinner and, without even exchanging any words with his family, asked his mother for a sleeping pill, forcing himself to fall asleep.

After all, the main event is tomorrow.

When the next day dawned, Zhou Yu was woken up by his alarm clock and looked at the shop sign in his line of sight.

As expected, the Taiyi Divine Skill has appeared on the store page.

【New today】

【Taiyi Divine Skill (1/1): A cultivation technique deduced by the Zhu family patriarch. It is not perfect and has certain flaws, causing it to stall at certain stages. However, it is essentially an excellent technique that combines spiritual energy cultivation, comprehension enhancement, and mental strength growth. If the technique can be improved, its power can be further enhanced. This technique is priced at 0 yuan (limited-time offer)】

Zhou Yu was slightly surprised when he saw the description of the Taiyi Divine Skill in the shop's text.

Is this a flawed technique?

This was the first time Zhou Yu had ever found a product in a store described as "defective".

"So, the reason Zhu Ling is stuck at the fifth level of the Taiyi Divine Skill is actually because the skill has flaws, and it has little to do with her own talent and comprehension?"

For Zhou Yu, this was also good news. After all, it was precisely because the Taiyi Divine Skill had flaws that Zhu Ling was stuck at a certain stage, giving him an opportunity to take advantage of the situation. This actually benefited him.

Just after buying the "Taiyi Divine Skill" which cost zero yuan, Zhou Yu suddenly discovered that new content had appeared on the special offer page.

[Special offer gift packs available for a limited time!]

[Bundled Package 2: The revised version of "Taiyi Divine Skill," titled "Taiyi Heavenly Technique," is on sale for a limited time at a special price. We have fixed all the flaws in "Taiyi Divine Skill," retaining its original effects, and further increasing the efficiency of all aspects of its operation by more than 50%. The price is only 50000 yuan!]

"The Taiyi Celestial Arts? A revised version of the Taiyi Divine Skill?"

Zhou Yu rubbed his eyes, afraid that he had misread it.

Such a good thing!

When Zhou Yu saw the bundle of Taixu Spirit Mist Palm and Taixu Divine Scripture before, he had a feeling that if the cultivation techniques that appeared in his shop were paired with other cultivation techniques or could complement each other, the shop would release a bundled sales package.

I never expected it to actually be like that!

Since there was something even more advanced, Zhou Yu naturally wouldn't let it pass by, especially since it had the words "limited time sale" written on it, meaning it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

The good news is that the previous bundle 1, which is that pay-to-win sword, is still listed on the store page. It's unclear how long this "limited-time sale" will last.

After purchasing the bundled gift pack, a new line of text immediately appeared on Zhou Yu's panel below the Lv3 Taixu Divine Scripture.

【Taiyi Celestial Arts Lv1: (0/100)】

"Perfect!"

Zhou Yu spent another 10,000 yuan to inject the stimulant and body-strengthening agent into his body and breathed a sigh of relief.

"With a full wallet, you can spend money with confidence! You don't have to hold back."

Zhou Yu suddenly realized that running a tutoring class to teach others was the right thing to do.

Just like when I guided Zhu Ling this time, I was not only able to learn a skill without any cost, but I could even use other people's money to upgrade myself.

Isn't this just getting something for nothing?

Holy crap, maybe I really am a genius!

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but hum a little tune, and even wanted to move his limbs.

squeak-

Suddenly, the door to Zhou Yu's room rang.

Zhou Yu looked through the crack in the door; a large eye was staring at him from outside.

Zhou Yu: "..."

Zhou Zaozao: "...Brother."

Zhou Yu: "...What?"

Zhou Zaozao: "You've finally gone mad."

Zhou Yu: "..."

……

Qingcheng, Zhu Family.

Zhu Ling took off her training clothes, walked out of the training room in her family's residence, took a quick shower, and then changed into the school uniform of No. 1 Middle School.

Because of the stagnation in her Taiyi Divine Skill level, she has been unable to eat or sleep properly lately, and only in the training room and classroom can she calm herself down a little.

Having just changed into her school uniform and eaten a quick breakfast, Zhu Ling arrived at her front door and saw her father.

"Xiao Ling," Zhu's father asked in a deep voice, "how is your learning of the Taiyi Divine Skill going?"

Zhu Ling subconsciously looked away. "It's alright, Father, don't worry."

"I've heard everything from others," Zhu's father replied. "You're stuck at level five of the Taiyi Divine Skill, aren't you?"

Zhu Ling didn't reply, but just gripped her arm with one hand, looking somewhat nervous.

"The Taiyi Divine Skill is indeed a powerful and mysterious technique. Our Zhu family was able to gain a foothold in the cultivation world largely because of this technique." Father Zhu shook his head helplessly. "Unfortunately, I can't offer any useful guidance or advice. It all depends on your own comprehension."

Zhu Ling frowned slightly, her eyes filled with resentment.

"Father," she looked up slightly and asked Zhu's father, "how did you advance from level five to level six?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu's father revealed a slightly disappointed smile.

"Apart from the Zhu family patriarch who first deduced this technique, even those who received his personal guidance were unable to break through the threshold of level five to six."

"Even I am the same."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ling was immediately taken aback.

It turns out that it wasn't that Zhu's father was unwilling to guide her at all.

However, Zhu's father, like her, was also stuck at the fifth level of the Taiyi Divine Skill!

"If there's a way to break through the Taiyi Divine Skill to the sixth level, then the Zhu family is certainly willing to pay any price." Father Zhu shook his head slightly and walked into the mansion.

"Unfortunately, on the path of cultivation, many things cannot be obtained simply by having money."

"If you can do this, you might become the hope of our Zhu family."

Zhu Ling didn't speak, but just watched her father's departing figure, her heart aching sharply.

So... is there really no other way?
