My Perfect Immortal Cultivation Life

Chapter 17 Mission Completed

"Oh, there's something I forgot to mention." Wang Ming's voice suddenly came from the air again.

"Remember to find my senior brother's True Meridian Dragon Ruler, otherwise you won't be able to unlock the last Death Gate."

"that's all……"

Li Yu began to doubt whether Wang Ming was truly a remnant soul, as he claimed.

Can a remnant soul have such a fleeting moment of brilliance?

Regardless, this mission was quite fruitful.

Having obtained two Earth-level cultivation techniques, and with the three array formations on his body also evolving, Li Yu was confident that his strength would experience a qualitative leap after returning and further cultivation.

But he always felt like he had forgotten something.

It's still a very important thing...

"Never mind, I'll think about it when I remember."

Li Yu returned the way he came and left the secret realm.

Returning to the outside world, there was no trace of battle left. Furthermore, the towering ancient tree at the entrance to the secret realm had vanished.

All that remained was a small sapling, just over half a foot tall.

Li Yu intended to turn back, but then he suddenly noticed something and stared intently at the sapling.

"This... isn't this the immortal herb we're looking for in the quest? The Mysterious Water Grass, which grows on both sides of the Cloud Stream..."

Unintentionally, a willow tree grows into a shady tree; it comes without any effort.

……

It was getting late, and the sun was setting.

On both sides of Yunxi, giant spirit vultures awaited, and the disciples lined up in order to return to Dao Yi Sect.

The steward counted the number of people: "Hmm... two more are missing, Wei Lei and Li Yu."

The sect has a rule that disciples who are late for the assembly time will not be waited for. This is because the later they return to the sect, the greater the chance of them encountering danger.

"Has no one seen them?" the deacon asked loudly.

The disciples all shook their heads, indicating that they hadn't noticed at all.

Yi Hu, the only one inside who knew where the two had gone, also chose to remain silent.

"Senior Brother Wei Lei has reached the peak of the first realm. In his hands, Li Yu would probably be in a situation where he could neither live nor die..."

Yi Hu knew that Wei Lei had some perverted little quirks. Although Li Yu had clashed with him, he didn't want to see his fellow disciple die too tragically.

"Hmm, Li Yu, I hope you die quickly."

In Yi Hu's view, Li Yu was doomed. As for his senior brother not returning yet, it wasn't hard to understand. When his senior brother left, he said he had detected fluctuations in the secret realm.

My senior brother is probably in the secret realm right now.

Just as the butler was about to leave with the vulture, they heard loud shouts coming from afar.

"Wait! I haven't gotten on the bus yet!"

The visitor was none other than Li Yu.

He rushed as fast as he could, even activating an improved version of the Mysterious Wind Spirit Array, just in time to catch up with the sect disciples as they evacuated.

This desolate place, far from any village or shop, may not have any evil cultivators, but encountering any dangerous monsters could still cause a lot of trouble.

"Why are you so late? We were almost gone... Wait a minute? What's that in your hand?"

The steward stared wide-eyed at the immortal herb in Li Yu's hand.

"Mysterious Water Grass! You actually found it!" He was overjoyed. "Not bad, not bad at all. You're quite a good disciple."

Li Yu bowed and thanked him, continuing to play the role of an ordinary disciple.

This sect mission guarantees at least 10 contribution points. If we can actually find the Mystic Water Grass, we can get a reward of 110 contribution points.

Li Yu boarded the Lingjiu and saw Yi Hu in the corner of the crowd.

Then he realized what he had forgotten.

I forgot something very important!

Contribution points!

He spent nearly 1000 contribution points to barely defeat Wei Lei, and he was still hoping that Wei Lei's Qiankun Bag could restore his health!

At that moment, Wei Lei's Qiankun bag was placed inside his clothes by Li Yu. He opened it again to check what was inside.

A few books.

Change of clothes.

And then... it's gone.

Li Yu was truly getting impatient.

Hey you, nameless fellow, you're supposed to be a top-tier expert at the peak of the first realm! How can such a powerful expert be penniless? This doesn't make sense!

However, this is not really Wei Lei's fault.

Li Yu quickly figured out the reason.

Body cultivators are all very poor!

Other professions, such as array masters, alchemists, and weapon refiners, involve high expenses but also high returns. The pills, arrays, or magical artifacts they refine can all be sold for money.

But body cultivation is truly a bottomless pit of resources.

Their cultivation requires numerous medicinal baths and body-refining pills, each of which is very expensive. Moreover, they don't have much to sell. The only thing they can probably monetize is their physical strength.

Li Yu gave Yi Hu a cold look.

Quietly, Yi Hu was also secretly observing Li Yu out of the corner of his eye.

Yi Hu's eyes were filled with suspicion and confusion. His senior brother was so powerful, why hadn't he killed Li Yu?

But when Yi Hu saw the undisguised coldness and murderous intent in Li Yu's eyes, he felt a chill run down his spine and quickly looked away, not daring to look at Li Yu again. He even moved his buttocks slightly towards the middle of the crowd, letting others block Li Yu's view.

As for Li Yu...

He really wanted to kill Yi Hu.

It's obvious without even thinking that the person who came to kill him was instigated by Yi Hu.

It's one thing if they come to kill me.

But why is he a physical cultivator?

"Aaaaaah, I hate body cultivators!"

It's both expensive and difficult to win!

Fighting a body cultivator is like being bitten by a dog! If a dog bites me, can I bite it back? All I get is a mouthful of dog hair!

Fortunately, Li Yu also obtained two Earth-level martial arts techniques.

Submitting these two cultivation techniques to the sect will earn you approximately 1000 to 1500 contribution points.

I absolutely have to repay the 1000 contribution points I borrowed from Qiu Xu; it's a matter of character. But how do I earn more money next? I need to know that being a formation master is a really expensive profession.

Li Yu closed his eyes to rest on the eagle, pondering how he could make a fortune next.

……

into the night.

The eagle flew back to its sect.

Thousand-Pound Peak, in a secluded corner.

Yi Hu obediently knelt on the ground, and sitting in front of him was a scholar who looked somewhat refined.

"What do you mean Wei Lei didn't return? How is that possible?" The scholar's tone was extremely stern. "It's hard to even find a second-realm demon beast on either side of Yunxi. What on earth did Wei Lei go about? Yi Hu, tell me the details again."

Yi Hu's massive body was trembling as he respectfully recounted the entire incident to the scholar.

"Li Yu... he's just a beginner disciple, and he managed to get killed by Wei Lei? We might as well all give up now!"

The scholar quickly ruled out the possibility that Li Yu might kill Wei Lei in retaliation.

"There are two possibilities now. First, our organization has been targeted! The enemy is in the shadows, while we are in the light, and they will gradually erode our talent pool."

The second possibility, and the one I least want to see, is that Wei Lei, seeing the secret realm's wealth, has become greedy and secretly taken its items to sell on the black market.

"Alright, just be careful. Next week you'll come with me to find traces of another secret realm. Let's not cause any more trouble this time."

Yi Hu was covered in cold sweat: "Disciple obeys..."
