Gou Zai Liang Jie Dao Wen Cheng Xian

Chapter 79 was looked down upon!

Upon returning to his cave, Chu Xuan immediately saw Jiang Ye chatting with a woman at the entrance. Seeing Chu Xuan, Jiang Ye greeted him, "Fellow Daoist Chu, you've returned from the secret realm?"

"Yes, she just got back. And who is this?" Chu Xuan's gaze turned to the woman beside him.

To be honest, Chu Xuan didn't really know many people in the Immortal Abode. Among the disciples of the Immortal Abode, he could probably only count three as acquaintances.

Bai Qingqing, who was far away in the main hall of the Immortal Mansion, was someone Chu Xuan knew, but she didn't know him.

Then there's Senior An Qiuyue, and our neighbor Jiang Ye.

Chu Xuan really wanted to get to know more disciples of the Immortal Abode, but he never had the chance.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, let me introduce you. This is Fellow Daoist Liu Jing, who lives next door to me and is a freshman in our year."

"Fellow Daoist Liu, this is the Fellow Daoist Chu I told you about before, the one who was favored by the secret realm."

Hearing Jiang Ye's introduction, Chu Xuan greeted him with a smile, "Friendly fellow Daoist Liu."

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Chu!"

Liu Jing gave a polite smile, nodded, and then said to Jiang Ye beside her, "Then you two chat, I won't disturb you."

After saying that, Liu Jing went back to her room.

This person doesn't seem to care much about him. Chu Xuan looked at Jiang Ye beside him with a questioning look in his eyes.

An invisible wave of divine sense emanated, and Jiang Ye's voice rang in Chu Xuan's mind: "Fellow Daoist Chu, please don't take offense. Fellow Daoist Liu values ​​results a bit, but his personality is still very good."

Chu Xuan suddenly realized that he had been looked down upon for not scoring eight points.

Jiang Ye spoke again, "Fellow Daoist Chu, please don't be offended. There are indeed a few fellow Daoists in the Immortal Mansion who only focus on their own strength. However, luck itself is a part of one's own ability."

"There are plenty of elders who don't even reach the eight-point mark. Points are meaningless. As long as one can form a Nascent Soul, any method, no matter what, is acceptable!"

"Fellow Daoist Jiang is right."

Chu Xuan replied with a smile, "Luck is part of strength. If you have a cheat code and don't use it, why would you compete with others in terms of hard work? That would be foolish."

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Chu, what did you gain from your trip to the secret realm?"

"Could you please broaden my horizons?"

Chu Xuan quickly waved his hand and said, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, what are you saying? With my current strength, I really don't have anything good to offer."

"I only brought out a pot of spirit wine, which barely justifies the premium price."

"Spirit Wine!" Jiang Ye's eyes lit up immediately.

"This is a real gem! It's one of the most valuable items in the secret realm. Once brought out, even if it's only a first-tier item, it'll be comparable to a second-tier precious spiritual treasure."

"It was just good luck; I managed to get my hands on such a luxury item as spirit wine," Chu Xuan said with a smile, offering no further explanation.

"Luck is also a part of strength. After reaching the Core Formation stage, many people will envy Fellow Daoist Chu."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two returned to their respective caves.

That's quite interesting. Jiang Ye probably just wants to exchange some resources and spiritual items with me, which is harmless. I can also get a lot of information about the immortal mansion from him, and giving him some resources later wouldn't be a bad idea.

As for Liu Jing, Chu Xuan didn't care about her at all. He was focused on his cultivation. If they got along, Chu Xuan wouldn't mind making friends.

If the other party is unwilling, just pretend you don't know them; it won't have any impact.

As for the college entrance examination scores, to be honest, they are quite accurate and can accurately reflect aptitude, at least for a certain period.

However, in a world like the Federation where resources are extremely scarce, qualifications are often less important than resources, unless the qualifications are exceptionally good.

Senior An Qiuyue is a perfect example. No matter how you look at it, An Qiuyue's talent is top-notch, an undisputed prodigy!

However, one still needs to strive for resources. Even the most skilled cook cannot cook without rice. Without sufficient resources, even the best talent is useless.

Suppressing the distracting thoughts in his mind, Chu Xuan took out the spirit jade and began selecting a puppet to inherit.

Although the art of puppetry is not as prominent as the art of formations, it is still one of the most advanced skills among the various arts of cultivation, and there are a great many of its lineages within the Federation.

However, like the inheritance of formations, many are repetitive. Although there are millions of inheritances, there are actually not many core categories. They all follow the same principle.

Soon, Chu Xuan filtered out most of the inheritances, leaving only a few immortal-grade puppet inheritances that were suitable for his own spiritual root attributes.

Among the few remaining inheritances, Chu Xuan quickly chose the Ten Thousand Spirit Puppet Scripture, which suited his taste!

Unlike common puppet inheritances that prioritize quantity, this Myriad Spirits Puppet Scripture is a celestial-level inheritance focused on refining external puppets.

By focusing solely on refining a core puppet and wholeheartedly enhancing its strength, the puppet often becomes more powerful than the original puppet.

The one who created this lineage in the past was a True Immortal-level puppet crafted with the cultivation of the Mahayana Realm, becoming a powerful being who defied the True Immortal with the cultivation of the Mahayana Realm!

Historically, cultivators who followed the same lineage were often able to create puppets that were a whole realm higher than themselves.

This faction has always been the type to play the fool and deceive others. Many times, they appear to be Core Formation cultivators, but in the blink of an eye, they can produce a Nascent Soul puppet and have tricked and killed many of their enemies.

Of course, this inheritance is not without its flaws. Not to mention the difficulty of cultivation, which is a common problem with immortal scriptures; cultivating immortal-level inheritances is never easy.

The only drawback of this puppet inheritance is that it consumes too many resources. To compare a puppet's body to a high-level cultivator, it relies entirely on resources to sustain it!

It is true that Core Formation can create puppets at the Nascent Soul stage, and Mahayana stage can also create puppets at the True Immortal level, but the prerequisite is having True Immortal level resources.

This lineage is a real resource hog; the resources consumed in creating a True Immortal Puppet are enough to forge two or three Immortal Artifacts!

Without resources, this tradition is impossible to practice, which is why it gradually declined after the end of the ancient era.

Nowadays, practically no one practices cultivation anymore.

The problem is, I don't lack resources. Resources are not even on my radar. I only have one core need: combat power!

This inherited recipe perfectly met his requirements.

However, after downloading this inheritance, Chu Xuan also downloaded two other puppet inheritances at the same time.

Given how scarce the Federation's resources are right now, if I were to cultivate this inheritance, I'd definitely be the one sticking my neck out. I need to create the illusion that I'm just curious and taking a look.

This way, one can avoid attracting attention.

Alas, my cultivation level is still too low. If I were to become a Nascent Soul cultivator someday, no, I'm not quite there yet. Only when I'm on par with an Immortal Venerable will I be truly free from all restrictions!
