Chapter 231: Joining the Peach Blossom Sect
A Xi nudged Liu Bo’s arm. “Aren’t you going to thank Uncle Nian quickly?”
Liu Bo reacted a beat late. “Thank… thank you, Uncle Nian.”
He reached out and took the cultivation method, which had a few words written on it.
【Phoenix Jade Cultivation Method – Initial Stage】
Although these characters were from the Yunzhou Continent, the System always helpfully provided translations.
Liu Bo recognized it at a glance.
It didn’t matter if he didn’t know what kind of cultivation method it was.
Since it was a cultivation method, he could cultivate it, and he could continue cultivating his Soul Cultivation Method.
This was much better than Liu Bo had initially expected.
He remembered that not many people in the Longevity Sect had extra cultivation methods, right?
Had he encountered a legendary encounter?
Liu Bo’s heart raced. Duan Wu Nian waved his hand and directly integrated the cultivation method into Liu Bo’s brow.
In an instant, many things appeared in Liu Bo’s mind.
Whether he could fully comprehend it depended on himself.
After all, many people who cultivated cultivation methods often ran into trouble if they didn’t comprehend them properly.
Let alone an idiot?
Duan Wu Nian didn’t care.
He wanted to send them away. “Go. Oh, right, A Xi, don’t run around randomly during this time. It’s not peaceful right now. Demonic Cultivators and the Human Race are both looking for Persons from Beyond the Heavens. If they encounter someone like you, the Human Race will just kill you and be done with it.”
A Xi let out an “Oh.” “Then I won’t go out. Are those Persons from Beyond the Heavens from outside the Yunzhou Continent?”
Duan Wu Nian stroked his beard again. Seeing that A Xi wasn’t very bright, he added, “We don’t know yet. Maybe, maybe not. Before discovering their traces, you Demonic Cultivators must act with discretion.”
A Xi mumbled, “We never go out looking for trouble.”
Liu Bo dared not speak, afraid that if he spoke, he would expose the fact that he wasn’t an idiot.
Duan Wu Nian nodded. “Go, go.”
A Xi happily took Liu Bo away.
On the way, he asked Liu Bo, “My name is A Xi, what’s yours?”
Liu Bo was about to give a fake name when A Xi spoke before he could. “I forgot you’re a bit silly and don’t remember. How about this, from now on, I’ll call you Big Idiot?”
Liu Bo: …
Damn it!!
If he had a stick in his hand, he would have definitely hit A Xi a few times.
A Xi was very happy. “Big Idiot, let’s go.”
Realizing that there would be someone in the clan who was uglier than him, and he would no longer be the ugliest, the air was filled with a happy aura.
When it rains, it pours.
At this moment, someone suddenly sent him a private message.
Zhen Weida: 【I logged off and just saw your message saying you got the qualification. You’ve entered the game, right? I even found your name】
Zhen Weida: 【Where are you now? If you’re in the Longevity Sect area, I can still bring you. Remember to reply to me after you complete your tasks and get points, Liu Bo!】
Liu Bo looked at Zhen Weida’s message, his face contorted in pain.
Not having points was one thing.
He could say he was currently in the Demon Race, but what if his act of pretending to be an idiot to save his life was discovered later?
What was the difference between that and his browser history being exposed?
Liu Bo was Zhen Weida’s college roommate, a rich second-generation with a bit of family money.
He only found out that his brother had already secured a qualification for the hottest game at the time when Zhen Weida returned to his village and they were chatting out of boredom.
Liu Bo had seen a lot of news from the outside world and had long yearned for this game.
Fortunately, his hard work paid off. He got the qualification and entered the game.
To pursue excitement, he directly entered the Tai Xue Sect and chose the highest difficulty.
It was just a little different from what he had imagined.
Let’s not mention Liu Bo for now. The players who went to the Tai Xue Sect and Guanhai Sect still had no news.
This was because Qing Guo’s batch of players had two Gold Spiritual Roots.
It would take a long time, and they hadn’t logged in yet.
Liu Bo had the worst talent, but he was the bravest.
As for the players who chose the Liuyun Sect and Peach Blossom Sect, they had a lot more going on.
After a batch of spiritual root awakenings around the same time, most of them chose to enter the game.
First, the Peach Blossom Sect was the Medicine Sect. Players who chose it were more or less aiming for alchemy.
In other words, they were mainly life-skill oriented players.
A group of new players were born around the two Sects. Since there were also Demonic Beasts, they chose safe locations to open their spiritual roots and began cultivating Soul Cultivation Techniques.
They arrived at the Peach Blossom Sect before officially entering the Early Qi Stage.
The Peach Blossom Sect was different from the Flying Sparrow Sect. The Flying Sparrow Sect was on the mountain, while the Peach Blossom Sect was in a valley. The entire valley was filled with peach blossom trees.
It was quite fitting.
The scenery was also beautiful.
They naturally accepted new disciples. The few novice players were quite clever. They waited for a while, gathered a group, and made up an excuse together.
They said they had lived together in a remote mountain forest before and had never joined a Sect.
Later, their village was attacked by Demonic Beasts, and they escaped together.
After receiving guidance from an expert, they were told that there was a Peach Blossom Sect here, and they should come to join it.
Although they possessed spiritual roots, they had never received proper guidance from a Sect. Now, they barely knew how to circulate Spiritual Energy.
These players had all done character creation. They had watched Han Tian’s Live Broadcast to some extent. Regardless of their character creation skills, compared to the perfunctory efforts of the first batch of players, their creations had their own styles and levels, so they wouldn’t be confused.
The Outer Sect Steward who guided new disciples into the Peach Blossom Sect was a bit confused, but it wasn’t unbelievable.
After all, once they joined the Sect, they would be responsible for making money for the Sect.
It wasn’t unheard of to have a group of people with spiritual roots who hadn’t been discovered.
After all, some cultivators would go into seclusion after getting married, and there were plenty of Rogue Cultivators who didn’t want to join Sects.
Everyone had their own way of life.
The players who managed to gather around the same time would definitely have similar spiritual roots. They were mostly tested to have ordinary White Spiritual Roots.
The batch with the worst talent.
The Peach Blossom Sect considered it for a moment. Coupled with the fact that the Spirit Fox Sect incident had already spread, they indeed needed to recruit new members.
So, they accepted this batch of players.
An old player who was selling Spirit Materials for the Longevity Sect at the Peach Blossom Sect saw this and sent a message to the world, advising them to make up an excuse when joining the Sect.
At least it shouldn’t be too outrageous.
The players who entered the Liuyun Sect went through a similar process.
Besides Rogue Cultivators, disciples of Sects generally didn’t visit other Sects’ territories often, except for important transactions. If they found a good reason, they wouldn’t be easily exposed in a short period.
And Rogue Cultivators wouldn’t know about the affairs of the Sects.
For example, Wang’an County was entirely under the monitoring of the Longevity Sect. Except for the Flying Sparrow Sect disciples who turned a blind eye, disciples of other Sects knew very little about the Longevity Sect’s affairs. The occasional impression they had was the concept of the Flying Sparrow Sect being an affiliated Sect.
New disciples had to first cultivate the introductory cultivation method. The Peach Blossom Sect was an alchemy Sect, so the first step was naturally to recognize Spirit Herbs, followed by cultivating Spiritual Fields.
After receiving the cultivation method from the Peach Blossom Sect, the Outer Sect Steward, with a relatively good attitude, said to the eager players before him.
“Welcome to the Peach Blossom Sect.”
