The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation

As soon as he finished speaking, the thirty-three layers of heaven within his body trembled.

Then Lu Changfeng saw Li Mingfei and Xiao Qi's energies intertwine and eventually merge tightly into one.

Holy crap!

He was stunned. He had only been going through the motions, but now it seemed that the two of them were really married, just like any other normal wedding!

Then, reflecting on the strange changes within his body, he came to a terrifying conclusion.

He possessed the thirty-three heavens, which meant he represented heaven and earth. His personal presiding over their wedding meant that heaven and earth personally recognized their marriage, which led to them completing the actual wedding process!

However, thinking about this made him feel not happy, but rather somewhat sad.

淦，

He was thinking of temporarily affiliating with his own company and then taking on odd jobs hosting weddings and funerals to earn some extra money, but now it seems that this path is no longer viable.

There's no other way, but if I put in so much effort and the fee is too low, it would be a huge loss. But if I charge too high, no one will hire me.

The thought of not being able to do this kind of part-time work in the future made Lu Changfeng sigh.

Li Mingfei quickly noticed the situation and immediately came over.

"Brother Lu, what happened?"

Seeing this, Lu Changfeng smiled and shook his head, then patted Li Mingfei on the shoulder.

"Hey, you two are really married now, so you'd better treat Xiaoqi well from now on!"

Upon hearing this, Li Mingfei immediately realized the problem.

"A real marriage, Brother Lu, what do you mean by that?"

Now it wasn't just Li Mingfei who was curious; even his parents, Wang Mang and his wife, came over, equally curious.

Lu Changfeng is stronger than them, and he has connections with higher levels of society, so he definitely didn't just say that randomly.

Seeing everyone's curiosity, Lu Changfeng simply began to explain.

"Actually, the wedding ceremony emcee is quite crucial. If the emcee is just a regular master of ceremonies, then it's just an ordinary wedding!"

"But if someone like Wang Mang invites a Taoist to perform a special marriage ritual, then it's a true marriage. In this case, the couple's energies will merge!"

"In other words, if one person is unlucky, the other will be unlucky too; if one person is lucky, the other will be lucky too!"

"You two have become truly one in terms of destiny, and that's what a real marriage is!"

"In your situation, you wouldn't have been able to truly get married. After all, Xiao Qi only looks like a person, but she's actually just a puppet!"

"But now she's a real person! At least in terms of destiny!"

At this moment, Li Mingfei fell silent.

Because that's when he remembered the fact he had deliberately ignored.

In his subconscious, he only saw Xiao Qi as a substitute for Ling'er.

How much of what Xiao Qi does for him is actually because of Ling'er?

To put it nicely, it's called loving the house because of its inhabitants; to put it bluntly, it's satisfying his twisted psychology.

But Lu Changfeng's words today gave him a reminder that he should now make a distinction: whether he loves Ling'er or Xiao Qi.

At this moment, Li Mingfei stared intently at Xiao Qi, who was standing in the sea of ​​flowers and watching him intently.

The feeling of Ling'er that was originally on Xiao Qi's figure slowly dissipated, because he saw Xiao Qi.

A gentle breeze ruffled Xiao Qi's hair, and at that moment he felt his heart begin to pound wildly!

An unprecedented feeling kept washing over him along with the breeze!

What exactly is this feeling? It's hard to explain.

But he had experienced it once before, at the entrance of the teahouse where Ling'er lived, but it was more intense and more exciting than that time.

Thinking of this, he slowly stepped forward, took Xiaoqi's hand, and looked very serious.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoqi!"

Xiaoqi shook her head.

"It's okay!"

Li Mingfei was taken aback.

"Isn't Xiaoqi going to ask me why I apologized?"

However, Xiaoqi looked very serious.

"Because the master is the master!"

Upon hearing this, Li Mingfei hugged Xiao Qi tightly.

Suddenly, countless petals shot into the sky, then fell around the two of them. The fiery red sunset shone on them, making them appear as if they were wearing red wedding attire.

At this moment, the flower petals, the setting sun, and the embracing couple create a breathtakingly beautiful scene.

After dealing with Li Mingfei's matter, the group agreed to go to the city for a meal.

But to Lu Changfeng's surprise, something unexpected happened when he went to pay the bill.

At that moment, the owner in front was smiling as he settled the bill with a customer.

"Guest, you're a regular customer of Tianyuan Private Kitchen, so we're giving you a 10% discount today!"

"That'll be 42.5 yuan in total. 42 spirit stones or the equivalent amount for a train ticket will do!"

As expected, the customer in front of him immediately took out spirit stones to pay the bill.

After the people in front of him left, Lu Changfeng approached the boss and asked,

"Boss, I understand the spirit stones, but what's the meaning of the train ticket?"

Upon hearing this, the boss couldn't help but laugh.

"Haha, sir, you probably haven't been eating out much lately!"

Lu Changfeng nodded.

Ever since Zhen Ji grew up, she has taken over all the dinners at home, claiming that she uses cooking to train her control over spiritual power.

What could he say? Of course he agreed.

The final result was naturally quite perfect, comparable to the culinary skills of a three-star chef.

However, I didn't expect that in such a short time, the payment methods outside would have changed.

Seeing Lu Changfeng's reaction, the boss immediately smiled and then patiently explained,

"This ticket was issued by the bus station. Initially, they charged in silver, but silver was too bulky, so the station owner came up with a ticket!"

"Simply put, you can buy 10 tickets from Tianxing City to Tianxing Sect for 1 spirit stone, and there's no time limit! You can even get a refund if you don't use them!"

"As more and more train stations open, many outsiders use this method to exchange their unwanted possessions for train tickets, which they then exchange for spirit stones!"

"Later on, these people started using their train tickets to buy things. I only accepted it because I saw that other merchants were using it successfully."

"You know, it's actually quite useful. You know, a lot of ingredients these days cost spirit stones to buy; gold and silver are practically useless. This ticket makes things much better!"

After listening, Lu Changfeng suddenly realized what was going on.

"Oh, I see!"

It seems the people of Tianxing City are treating the train tickets as a lower-level currency than spirit stones.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Spirit stones can't be cut into smaller pieces, but some people don't want gold or silver, so train tickets take that place.

At this moment, Lu Changfeng was overjoyed. Could it be that he had the potential to become a banker?

Before time travel, many parents would often say to their children, "I don't own a bank, where would I get so much money?"

Now that my own train tickets have the potential to be converted into cash, wouldn't I be rich if I actually opened a bank?

The spirit stones saved up will be directly recharged into the cheat system. When it's time to use them, you can then purchase a large number of spirit stone packs costing 6 gold points.

Wouldn't that give me an endless amount of spending points?

However, after thinking about it, he finally decided that this idea was not feasible for the time being.

Putting aside the issue of using depositors' savings to recharge, the key point is that although the spirit stone gift pack is basically a permanent feature, it's only a basic feature, and there's only one available per day at most.

This alone refutes my idea of ​​unlimitedly moving depositors' funds to top up their accounts.

But that doesn't mean it can't be opened. At worst, you can borrow some when you really need in-game currency, and then slowly pay it back by buying a spirit stone pack every day.

The money borrowed from the bank in my past life was legal money.

It makes perfect sense to take out a loan for yourself!

However, given my current limited capabilities, I'll put the idea of ​​opening a bank on hold for now.

However, train tickets are not very useful now, but problems will arise when they are used throughout the entire Tianxing Sect or even a wider area.

If they try to imitate the bus station, they'll lose everything and their own revenue streams will be wiped out!

Therefore, we must come up with a method that outsiders absolutely cannot replicate!

Tickets costing one spirit stone or more can be disregarded for now; the focus should be on tickets costing less than one spirit stone.

So at this point, it's time to start making wishes on the infinitely powerful pay-to-win gift pack system!

On his way home, he immediately started muttering to himself.

"I need a way to make train tickets absolutely impossible to forge!"

"I need a way to make train tickets absolutely impossible to forge!"

"I need a way to make train tickets absolutely impossible to forge!"

[Ding! Gift pack refreshed, please purchase in time!]

"Wuhu, it's a success!"

He immediately activated his cheat system, and sure enough, a new gift pack appeared.

[Anti-counterfeiting gift pack: Sound stamp, Breath stamp, Portrait stamp. Price: 888 In-game Points!]

[Sound Seal: A high-grade third-tier magic artifact. The imprinted pattern will emit a corresponding sound when it comes into contact with spiritual energy!]

[Aura Seal: A high-grade fourth-tier magic artifact. By recording one's own aura, the imprinted pattern will carry a trace of aura when infused with spiritual power!]

[Portrait Seal: A high-grade, third-tier magical artifact; the imprinted pattern can move upon contact with spiritual energy!]

Wuhu!

The first thought that came to mind when I saw these three seals was, "Can this really work?"

But he soon realized that it actually worked.

Voice stamps and portrait stamps allow people to hear and see them directly, making them suitable for normal consumer scenarios and enabling quick and easy verification of authenticity.

The aura seal is the ultimate killing move when the first two options are uncertain. Don't forget that you possess the strongest Foundation Establishment phenomenon, the Thirty-Three Heavens.

In other words, to imitate one's own aura, one must at least possess the same extraordinary characteristics.

But those who also possess the thirty-three heavenly phenomena are absolutely the most outstanding among the geniuses. Would they bother with such a paltry sum?

To put it bluntly, let alone geniuses, even cultivators with higher cultivation levels don't care about the amount of spirit stones they have. What they care more about are treasures that can improve their cultivation or combat power.

Moreover, these three stamps can be used on train tickets now, and they can also be used when a bank is opened in the future, which can be considered a complete solution to the anti-counterfeiting problem.

He immediately took the things and went to his old man, Deng.

"Old Deng, what are you doing?"

As soon as he entered, he saw Old Deng looking worriedly at the few train tickets in front of him.

Upon seeing Lu Changfeng enter, he simply nodded.

"Please sit down."

After Lu Changfeng sat down, Old Deng let out a heavy sigh.

"You brat, why do some people even bother to counterfeit these short-distance train tickets that cost 10 taels of gold? You think the ones that can be counterfeited are worth more than the tickets themselves!"

"What are they thinking?!"

Lu Changfeng was very surprised to hear this.

"Wow, someone actually forged train tickets!"

"let me see!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuange immediately handed over the train ticket in front of him.

Looking at the train ticket in front of him, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but nod.

Old Deng's ticket design was quite meticulous, featuring intricate patterns created using special ink, along with the station names in the center.

These tickets are generally sufficient, but you can't prevent them from being freely exchanged, and what you get in return is spirit stones.

"That's quite a skill; you can't tell the difference between the two just by looking at them!"

"But you're lucky, Old Deng! I managed to get my hands on three stamps; they'll definitely prevent this problem!"

Old Deng immediately became interested and wanted to see what was going on, but considering his son's usual image, he still resorted to reverse psychology.

"Oh ho, I don't believe it!"

Yoho,

Seeing that Lao Deng didn't believe him, Lu Changfeng immediately took out three seals.

"Don't believe me? I'll show you how awesome this thing is!"

"Give me a train ticket!"

Upon hearing this, Old Deng immediately smiled and handed over several printed train tickets.

Lu Changfeng snapped the ticket three times, and three stamped patterns appeared on it.

However, after examining them for a long time, he still couldn't see anything special about the three seals, and immediately looked at Lu Changfeng.

"this one?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng didn't say anything more. He immediately formed some spiritual energy in his hand, and as soon as he touched the ticket, a voice came from the seal pattern on the left.

"This is a short-distance ticket, for crying out loud!"

puff!

Almost instantly, Lu Yuange couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of liquid.

"Cough cough cough, that sound?"

However, Lu Changfeng continued to gesture for him to continue reading.

At this moment, the little figure driving a car on the second seal pattern slowly began to move.

Seeing this, Lu Yuange completely lost her composure and hurriedly asked the third person...

"And the third one? What's its function?"

The next moment, the third seal pattern exuded a heavy aura. Although it didn't affect the activity, it still made people feel stuffy.

Almost instantly, Lu Yuange sensed it; it was his own brat's feeling.

Looking at the three seals, he couldn't help but ask,

"You brat, these three stamps didn't affect the patterns on you, did they?"

"No, that's not the case. It's just that this aura seal needs to be re-registered every six months. The other two can just absorb the surrounding spiritual artifacts normally. If you're in a hurry, you can also absorb spirit stones!"

Hearing this, Lu Yuange finally became truly excited.

"Great! With these three articles, we don't have to worry about anyone forging them anymore!"

"No, I have to get a batch out now, or I'll lose a huge amount of spirit stones!"

After saying that, he turned and left Lu Changfeng's office without even waiting for him to finish speaking.

Seeing this, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

"Old Deng is in a real hurry!"

"It's good that you're in a hurry, so I can earn spirit stones peacefully while lying down!"

However, his expression immediately turned cold after he went outside.

"Heh, you've got some nerve, interrupting my earning of in-game currency!"

I just want to live a simple life, but I'm not a coward. Anyone who gets in my way of earning in-game currency is my enemy.

He never holds back when dealing with enemies!

He immediately began divination, and the results appeared shortly afterward.

To his surprise, the family that dared to scheme against him was actually a Foundation Establishment family! And that family even had a late-stage Foundation Establishment ancestor!

Lu Changfeng was so angry he laughed when he saw the result!

"Good, good, good, no wonder you dared to mess with my business, so you have someone backing you up!"

"Since that's the case, don't blame me for being impolite!"

The next moment, he transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the location of the family.

Before long, he was quietly suspended above the Foundation Establishment family!

At this moment, in a room within this family compound, dozens of people are raising their glasses and shouting.

"Haha, you're the one with the best ideas! You actually came up with this way to earn spirit stones!"

"In all my years, this is the first time I've earned spirit stones so easily!"

After the elderly man in the lead finished speaking, the others around him echoed his sentiments.

"It's a pity that the Lu family is affiliated with the Tianxing Sect; otherwise, the business at this train station would belong to our Li family!"

"Indeed, this is a huge deal worth over 50 a month! If we can get our hands on it, our Li family will never lack spirit stones again! With these spirit stones, we can become a Golden Core Li family, or even a Nascent Soul Li family!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahaha, the Li family of Golden Core cultivators, the Li family of Nascent Soul cultivators!"

"Sorry, let's talk about dreams when we're in bed tonight!"

As he spoke, he immediately grabbed a spirit chicken from the table and took a bite.

It must be said that this chicken is excellent in both meat quality and cooking method.

However, upon hearing Lu Changfeng's voice, the previously lively room fell silent. Finally, the elderly man at the head of the group couldn't help but shout.

"Who are you?"

"How dare you trespass on my Li family's property!"

As he spoke, everyone around him held their magical weapons and looked at Lu Changfeng with tense expressions. As soon as he gave the order, they would all attack at once.

However, Lu Changfeng continued to leisurely eat the spirit chicken in his hand, even spitting out a few bones. But when he saw that these people didn't recognize him, he immediately looked disappointed.

"You're trying to swindle me out of my spirit stones, and you don't even know who I am!"

"What a waste of time! I thought I could pull off a show!"

"Just die now!"

"I'm looking forward to going home to eat the dinner my little darling made!"

The next moment, Lu Changfeng vanished from his spot. Immediately, he clenched his fist, and a colossal hand appeared above the Lu family compound.

With a deafening roar, the once prosperous Foundation Establishment family was instantly reduced to dust by this single palm strike.

What formations, what magical artifacts, what attacks—all are like a child's whining in front of this giant hand.

Only after the entire Foundation Establishment family was completely reduced to ruins did he nod in satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad, that move is pretty cool, but it's such a waste of spiritual energy!"

"Let's keep it simple next time!"

He then used the Heavenly Divination Technique twice more, and only after confirming that no one had been missed did he put down the chicken carcass and go home.

It wasn't until several days later that other local forces mustered the courage to come and see what was going on.

However, as soon as he got close, the man suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Oh no! Something terrible is happening here! We must leave immediately!"

These words quickly spread for thousands of kilometers around, and everyone who heard them was horrified.

The other party had been gone for several days, yet the lingering scent they left behind was enough to make someone vomit blood. Just how strong must that person be!

At the same time, everyone had a guess.

In fact, they knew a little about the Li family's affairs, since the cultivation world mainly used jade slips and rarely used paper. And in recent years, the most talked-about thing was the Fuxing bullet train flying in the sky.

Combining the two, it's easy to guess what they're up to.

But unexpectedly, it was only built once, and then the whole family was wiped out.

This immediately made many of them abandon similar ideas; there was no other way, given the cautionary tales already played out.

What? You think your house can withstand this blow?

Besides, with that kind of destructive power, the opponent must be at least in the late Golden Core stage or even the perfect Golden Core stage, or even in the Nascent Soul stage.

Regardless of that, within this area, only the Tianxing Sect possesses such cultivation levels!

In other words, this is the sect's business.

And this bunch of ants actually dared to try and harm the sect!

Now, looking at the passenger stations scattered throughout the various mortal kingdoms, a melody inexplicably rose in their hearts.

I've been conquered by you just like that...

However, because of this, the exchange of old tickets went quite smoothly; in just one month, all the old tickets were finally exchanged for new ones.

Although we still lost several thousand spirit stones in the end, it was nothing compared to the station's monthly income of 600,000.

It's July again.

The coolness of the sofa, the sound of rain outside the window, and the news jade slip in his hand created a pleasant moment for Lu Changfeng.

pat!

Tossing aside the popsicle stick, Lu Changfeng let out a contented hum.

"Ah, that feels so good!"

"It would be great if there were watermelons too."

For him, summer without watermelon is like a lifeless body.

Actually, there are watermelons sold in Tianxing City. These watermelons are not only very sweet, but they also taste like watermelons.

However, because the spiritual energy was too abundant, and watermelons could not help with cultivation, the farmers who originally planted watermelons on the wasteland switched to more profitable talisman herbs or spiritual rice.

This made Lu Changfeng, who loved eating watermelon, feel uncomfortable.

So pathetic!

Fortunately, there's still a chance for things to turn around. Since Li Mingfei's father is an emperor and cannot cultivate, he certainly won't be lacking in comforts.

So this year, Li Mingfei promised to go back and steal two acres of watermelons, and now he's calculated that it's about time!

Clang!

The office door was pushed open the next moment.

"Brother Lu, look what I brought you!"

"Your favorite food is watermelon!"

As he spoke, he tossed the storage bag he was holding over. Lu Changfeng opened it and was immediately overjoyed.

"Holy crap, golden retriever, this watermelon came just in time!"

He immediately raised his knife and brought it down, raised his knife and brought it down, raised his knife and brought it down.

The watermelon in front of him had been cut into edible pieces. After taking a bite, he finally showed an expression of enjoyment.

"Ah, this is the taste!"

Only then did he notice the person next to Li Mingfei, a middle-aged man with a stubble but looking very energetic.

Suddenly he realized,

"Holy crap, you're Li Bing!"

Lu Changfeng's words were full of shock. You know, Li Bing has only been running his shop for three or four years. How did he go from a young man to an uncle?

Upon seeing that Lu Changfeng recognized him, Li Bing couldn't help but smile.

"Brother Lu, it has to be you! Li Mingfei didn't believe me when he saw me the other day!"

Listening to Li Bing's complaints, Li Mingfei couldn't help but retort.

"How can you blame me? You weren't exactly handsome before, but you at least looked young. Now you have a beard, a new hairstyle, and dress like an adult. No wonder I wouldn't recognize you!"

Li Bing smiled and shook his head at this, and couldn't help but smile as he looked at Lu Changfeng and Li Mingfei.

Seeing familiar faces still looking the same, perhaps that's a kind of luck!

Lu Changfeng immediately asked the two to sit down before inquiring about the reason for Li Bing's visit.

But after hearing this, Lu Changfeng and the other man were dumbfounded.

"Holy crap, you're about to reach Foundation Establishment?"
