My Daoist partner helps me cultivate immortality

When we have the money, we still need to use elixirs to cure her eyes.

"By the way, Senior Lin, doesn't it have a reverse function?"

"You don't have four elemental roots, so you can just turn around halfway if you need to."

"That's right..."

Gu Yuesheng was stunned.

She was so embarrassed that she wanted to cover her face.

Then, holding up his empty sleeve, he secretly grieved.

I was so happy to receive this gift that I was completely out of my mind!

As expected, Lin Ye saw the favorability rating rising rapidly, and she figured out how to say it.

"By the way! Senior Lin, my house isn't big enough, and this wheelchair doesn't seem to be able to turn around properly here."

Lin Ye's face fell.

"Good...the best is yet to come."

"Trust me, we'll be moving to a bigger house soon..."

"Really..." Gu Yuesheng looked at Lin Ye suspiciously, but there was nothing in front of her.

"I'll just widen the corner a little tomorrow."

We're so poor!

The sorrowful leaves seemed to have a special rhythm when the grain was delivered at night.

Early the next morning.

Lin Ye yawned as he went out the door.

The Candle Dragon's open eyes represent daytime, and its closed eyes represent nighttime. Therefore, Lin Ye wondered if basking in the morning sun would be beneficial for his cultivation.

Previously, his aptitude was very poor, and these detailed operations were like the mechanism not being unlocked, never having any effect whatsoever.

As a result, today, after basking in the morning sun, the fire-elemental spiritual energy within my body actually became a bit more active.

Damn it, is this what life is like for people with good aptitude? You guys are going too far!

Lin Ye began meditating as the sun rose. At that moment, his neighbor, Old Li, came out and poured a basin of dirty water onto the street, greeting him, "Fellow Daoist Lin, good morning! You look great!"

Good morning, Fellow Daoist Li.

"With the Ascension Ceremony approaching, the Three Hundred Alleys are bustling with activity. I was planning to rent a small stall in the Return to Secular Market to buy some array formations, but it turns out I have to make an appointment, and the waiting list is for next week."

"The rent is also very expensive; even the most remote location costs two low-grade spirit stones a day."

Old Li poured out his grievances.

He was a low-level array master, and he also had a wife and daughter to support.

Life isn't exactly comfortable, and selling goods isn't easy.

"It's so expensive!" Lin Ye said, feeling a pang of regret.

"Is this Ascension Ceremony really that amazing? The booths are so many times more expensive than usual?"

Fellow Daoist Li nodded.

"This conference is truly impressive!"

"Fellow Daoist Lin, you don't think the Ascension Ceremony is just a regular entry selection, do you?" Fellow Daoist Li beckoned mysteriously.

Lin Ye immediately stepped forward: "Please enlighten me, Fellow Daoist Li."

"It's easy... Let's talk about how our Great Xia Kingdom has more than 300 sects, and this Ascension Ceremony is a grand event for all of them."

"There is a rule for the conference: it cannot be held in the same sect within a 60-year period, so the venue is frequently changed."

"It is held only once every ten years, and in two months, the Qingyang Sect will hold its first Ascension Conference ever!"

"At that time, it will not be as simple as recruiting new disciples. During the year-long Ascension Conference, there will also be a grand banquet where various sects gather to watch the ceremony, a competition covering all realms, a competition of various cultivation arts, and so on."

"The prizes for the tournament are the highest, but we might not be able to afford the tickets."

"However, I think... Fellow Daoist Lin could sign up for the weapon refining competition. If he can achieve a good ranking, he'll definitely rise to great heights!"

Lin Ye laughed and said, "Thank you for informing me, Fellow Daoist Li. You're too kind. How could I possibly have that kind of ability?"

"Fellow Daoist Lin's attributes are suited for weapon crafting, and his talent in all the arts of cultivation is undoubtedly better than mine, plus he's young..."

"I'm so envious. Maybe I'll actually be noticed by a sect that specializes in weapon crafting."

Old Li's eyes suddenly lit up.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Lin, would you like to share a stall with me?"

"Two low-grade spirit stones a day, we'll split them equally, share a stall, and try to get a high price from out-of-towners!"

Old Li felt he had come up with a great idea.

Lin Ye blinked: "Fellow Daoist Li has already reserved a stall for a week from now?"

"Exactly! If we try to make an appointment now, we'll probably have to wait two weeks."

"Okay, it's a deal."

After bidding farewell to Fellow Daoist Li, I returned home.

Lin Ye was deeply troubled.

The Qingyang Sect is about to hold an Ascension Ceremony, which will last for one year.

At that time, all the major sects of Xia Kingdom will send people to attend the ceremony, and heroes will gather from all directions.

It sounds like these rules are... a cultivation version of the Olympics?

Such a grand and exciting event must have contained countless opportunities, and Lin Ye couldn't help but have some thoughts about it.

If the opportunity arises, he also hopes to use this as a starting point to find a safer place to settle down.

The Qingyang Sect and the Three Hundred Alleys are not places to linger.

"However, the increased foot traffic in Lane 300 during the event makes it less safe than usual."

"I'm being much more cautious when traveling!"

Chapter Twelve: My Good Brother Abandoned Me and Left Me Surrounded by Cultivators

Lin Ye rubbed his hands together, eager to get started.

He wanted to test how powerful the strongest low-level spiritual weapon could be, without revealing sensitive technologies, using weapon-refining techniques that were within the understanding of this era.

This is tantamount to direct subversion of superiors!

I wonder who will ultimately get the cheapest sample unit.

Buying it is like making a profit!

When necessary, this can serve as proof of one's potential.

In his previous life, Lin Ye was a Nascent Soul cultivator.

He is also a master weapon refiner.

The art of weapon crafting a thousand years later is not that different from the technology of the Dark Ages, and many of its techniques can be used directly.

Lin Ye brought over a piece of blue-green stone.

After being "used to make inferior goods better", the quality of this low-grade material was upgraded to the point where it could be used to forge both high-quality low-grade spiritual weapons and low-quality mid-grade spiritual weapons.

Actually, it's a bug exploit.

Materials used to refine intermediate-level spiritual weapons can only produce two types of finished products: intermediate-level spiritual weapons and waste materials. They cannot be transformed into low-level spiritual weapons.

The difference lies in the underlying logic; forcing it will only turn the material into scrap metal.

The secret technique of passing off inferior goods as superior ones was discovered by weapon refiners ten thousand years later.

"There's always a middle ground in material quality..."

This technique permanently alters the properties of materials, but its drawback is that it consumes a great deal of spiritual energy.

As long as the procedure isn't witnessed, there's no need to worry about being discovered.

Lin Ye calmed his mind, cleared his mind of all distractions, and began to take action.

To his surprise, although he only intended to use the weapon-refining techniques of this era, some methods from the distant future were uncontrollably mixed into the weapon-refining process.

What am I doing...?

stop now!

But upon closer inspection, one will find that his technique is completely natural, without leaving a single trace.

It seems my weapon-forging skills are beyond saving.

There's no going back; it's been completely marked by the times.

This era spans ten thousand years, and the weapon-forging techniques of different periods are difficult to separate.

half an hour.

Lin Ye poured the finished product into the spiritual liquid to cool it.

It's done!

Upon inspection, the internal structure of this low-grade spiritual weapon contained many techniques that did not yet exist, but they were intertwined and no problems could be seen. Instead, it seemed to be the work of a genius weapon refiner.

Lin Ye was also somewhat surprised that he had actually performed a little beyond his usual level.

He abandoned the future art of weapon crafting.

However, the ingrained art of weapon crafting did not abandon him.

Thank you, the ten thousand years yet to come...

Lin Ye was very satisfied with this sword; in terms of quality, it was a monster among low-grade first-class spiritual weapons.

Then, he took out another fifty longswords of the same type.

This is the high-quality low-grade spiritual weapon that Lin Ye had prepared beforehand.

It has the exact same design as the named sword he worked so hard to make, but these fifty are mass-produced and of slightly lower quality.

At least with these mass-produced goods, most of them cannot cut through intermediate-level spiritual artifacts.

Lin Ye naturally thought of...

AB grade!

Live-streaming e-commerce hosts often show viewers products as Grade A, but actually sell lower-quality Grade B products.

Mine can't be considered an A/B mark; it's just a minor error caused by the different feel and luck of the craftsman each time it's made...

Lin Ye swallowed hard.

"Yingying, do me a favor."

"I need to rent a magic array that can record and play back hallucination images."

Chu Yingying nodded: "What are you going to do with it?"

"Let's record something!"

......

A first-grade advanced formation, the Illusion Formation, costs 5 low-grade spirit stones per day for rent.

Lin Ye turned on the recording function and then recorded a short film that he and Chu Yingying had prepared in advance.

In short, it starts with a smooth little storyline, and then suddenly switches to an advertisement segment.

"That's amazing! Where can I buy it?"

"Good question!"

"Only fifty units available at this event!"
