The Fourth Calamity: My Sect Has Countless Prodigies

Chapter 137 Reclamation Completed

Inside the courtyard of the Qingxuan Sect.

As Zhou Yi watched the transmission talisman burn brightly, his heart gradually calmed down.

"I didn't expect the Zhou family's investigation to be so quick. Where exactly did the information get leaked?" He put away the ashes of the communication talisman and muttered to himself under the sycamore tree.

It must be said that Zhou Qinghe's movements were very secretive when he came here in order to seize the inheritance of Yunshan Sect, so that the Zhou family had no clue that he had gone to Yunshan Sect.

Moreover, the Zhou family is absolutely unaware of his location; they only know that he has someone. Therefore, the problem will definitely not arise when Zhou Qinghe comes to kill him.

It must have been before that.

Zhou Yi closed his eyes and pondered deeply.

Just then, he suddenly remembered player Li Fan's first death.

At that time, he was killed in Liuye Town by the people Zhou Qinghe was investigating.

Recalling that the Zhou family's first investigation was headed to Liuye Town, Zhou Yi immediately felt confident.

It seems the other party is unaware of their situation. The reason they were exposed is because the Zhou family discovered the person conducting the investigation.

Their problems aren't too serious right now.

Moreover, with the beast tide still looming, the Zhou family is unlikely to make any major moves.

"This crisis is still far off; for now, I should focus on improving my own strength," Zhou Yi thought to himself.

Although his current cultivation level has reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, it is still insufficient in many situations.

I need to quickly accumulate 250 points of luck to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yi opened the Qi Luck Sect panel and checked his Qi Luck value again.

【Qingxuan Sect】

[Master: Zhouyi]

[Cultivation Level: Qi Refining Level 8 (Qi Luck Value has reached 250 points, allowing for breakthrough to Qi Refining Level 9)]

[Luck Value: 50]

[Disciples: 100]

[Bound NPCs: Su Qianyue, Bai Ling, Crimson Flame Monkey King Wei Chen]

[Anchor Point: Qingxuan Sect (100/100)]

[Sect Buildings: Alchemy Pavilion, Weapon Forging Pavilion, Talisman Platform, First-Tier Spirit Field ————]

[Sect Cultivation Techniques: Azure Profound Technique, Five Elements True Scripture, Golden Body Technique, Soul Forging True Scripture, Primordial Moon Essence Technique ————]

[Sect Inheritance: First-Tier Talisman Inheritance, First-Tier Alchemy Inheritance, First-Tier Weapon Forging Inheritance]

To Zhou Yi's surprise, this time the sect panel not only showed an increase in luck value, but also added two new sections.

These are the settings for binding NPCs and setting anchor points.

The Qingxuan Sect's anchor points are now full. If Zhou Yi wants to summon more players, he must consume 100 points of luck to upgrade them.

The upgraded anchor point can add 200 more player summoning slots and also unlock a new feature.

As for what this function is, Zhouyi doesn't know yet; it will only be discovered after the upgrade.

As for binding NPCs, Zhou Yi had already bound three meritorious officials of the sect before.

Before long, once Zhouyi's luck value increases, he might be able to help them all break through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining.

"Now, the sect's situation can be considered to be on the right track." Zhou Yi looked up at the direction of the spirit fields outside the door, feeling melancholy.

Back then, the first piece of land he conquered was Lingtian.

Oh, right, the spirit field!

Zhou Yi's eyes lit up, and he had an idea.

The Spirit Field is absolutely crucial in the upcoming Spring Beast Tide event.

Since Zhou Yi mentioned wanting to purchase the Spirit Plant Master's inheritance, but due to the market being infiltrated by demonic cultivators and placed under lockdown, he hasn't had the opportunity.

But ever since Cangfeng Mingyue brought back dozens of earthworms, the situation over there seems to have improved considerably. It's time to go and see the results.

With a thought, Zhou Yi stepped out of his room and headed towards the ordinary spirit fields outside the sect.

Ordinary spirit fields are also known as scattered spirit fields.

This type of spiritual field cannot be upgraded to a higher level, so spiritual herbs cannot be grown on it, but spiritual rice can be grown on it and harvested.

These are the fields used for the vast majority of normal Ling rice cultivation.

Only a small portion of spirit rice with special effects is planted in first-tier spirit fields by cultivators.

Before long, Zhou Yi arrived at the spiritual field that was being cultivated.

To his surprise, the young players were not as diligent and busy as they had been when he last visited.

Instead, they sat scattered on the ground, chatting amongst themselves.

"Oh dear, what do you think we should do after we've finished plowing the fields?"

"I don't know—anyway, I don't want to keep farming. I'm going to use my contribution points to exchange for other equipment and find opportunities to fight monsters and level up."

"Is that so? But I find fighting monsters so tiring, farming is much more comfortable."

The players were chatting idly about where to go next, seemingly slacking off.

But this also subtly reveals that the spirit fields may have already been cultivated.

Zhou Yi's gaze shifted, finally settling on Cangfeng Mingyue. He slowly walked forward and patted the other's shoulder.

"Who is it? How dare you touch my shoulder, Brother Cangfeng?! Holy crap, it's the Sect Master!" Cangfeng Mingyue was so startled that he stood up abruptly.

He rubbed his eyes, momentarily unable to believe what had happened. But after he came to his senses, he wanted nothing more than to slap himself on the spot.

Zhou Yi looked at this little player and couldn't help but laugh and cry.

He remembered that Cangfeng Mingyue was usually quite reserved when talking to Qianlong and others, so why was he now leading new players and calling himself "Brother Shang"?

But he had important business to attend to, so he didn't delay and immediately asked, "I just saw you resting here, and during our conversation we talked about what would happen after the spirit fields were cultivated. Does this mean you've completed the task of cultivating the spirit fields?"

After hearing Zhou Yi's words, Cangfeng Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

So that's what the sect leader wanted to ask about, and he didn't seem to care much about his behavior just now.

Then there's no problem!

"Reporting to the Sect Master, the disciples have indeed finished cultivating the spirit fields and can now hand over the task."

The next moment, a notification appeared on Cangfeng Mingyue's panel indicating that the task was completed.

[Task to reclaim wasteland completed]

[A total of 15 players have cultivated 200 acres of spirit fields.]

[Task Reward: 5 contribution points per acre of spirit field, for a total of 1000 contribution points]

1000 contribution points, this is really going to be a windfall!

Cangfeng Mingyue stared at the enormous number, speechless with astonishment.

Cultivating spiritual fields, that's incredibly profitable!

Although these days they often spend thirteen or fourteen hours a day playing games.

However, this reward is definitely a fitting reward for their hard work.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Sect Master." Cangfeng Mingyue hurriedly cupped his hands in thanks.

Zhou Yi simply smiled and waved his hand.

The cold wind howled, lifting the hem of his clothes.

Zhou Yi, dressed in a blue robe, stood against the wind, appearing to the players like a true immortal.

"Brothers, the wages are in! Let's divide them up!" Cangfeng Mingyue rushed towards the players who were still chatting, his expression extremely excited.

"Damn it, save me a copy!"

"I cultivated an extra acre, so I should get 5 more points."

"————That acre was clearly cultivated by me!!"
