Chapter IV: Copying

Qingyun Sect.

Qingquan Peak.

It is 3,000 zhang high, and the mountain peaks are covered with clouds and mist, and white clouds dot it.

This is where the Qingyun Sect's comprehensive affairs hall is located.

However, what is unique is that within a radius of thousands of zhang on the mountainside, there are not all kinds of pavilions and palaces, but all kinds of ancient trees as high as 100 zhang!

Outside Qingquan Peak, flying creatures with white fluff and huge bodies, but looking like dandelions in the previous life, are landing on the flat ground on the mountainside one by one.

Qingyun Sect, in the entire Lingnan land, is the most famous, not only for its strong power, but also for the modification and application of spiritual plants by the entire sect!

The predecessors of the Qingyun Sect, depending on the need, transformed various spirit plants into the appearance they wanted.

For example, the Langyu Tree used to live and absorb aura, the Emperor House Tree used to defend the sect, the Transmission Flower used to transmit messages, or the dandelion grass that Lin Chen is riding on now!

"Alas, a ride costs a spirit stone, which is equivalent to a day's harvest for an ordinary monk in the sect, no wonder the immortal cultivators are more than one house. The high-level ones have to cultivate, while the low-level ones can't afford to go out! ”

Lin Chen sighed lightly, and used the sound transmission flower to tell himself where to get off the station.

After a while, the formation on the mountainside activated, forming a strong wind, interfering with the reverberating trade winds in the valley, causing the dandelion grass that Lin Chen and the other monks were riding on began to slowly land on the hillside.

Qingyun Sect occupies an extremely large area, and in its previous life, its area even surpassed the sum of several large cities.

The distance between the peaks, the distance between the cave and the main hall can be said to be extremely far, even if the Shenxing talisman is constantly used, it will take at least a day to get from the easternmost to the westernmost place, which is still based on the flat road and no rest.

Between the peaks, the terrain is steep, and the valleys and cliffs abound, if you really rely on two legs to travel, I don't know how much time it will take.

Therefore, in order to facilitate the journey, the elders of the sect changed the terrain so that a trade wind leading to various places reverberated between the peaks, and then used dandelion grass to rush the road, which could greatly save time.

Lin Chen quickly got off the dandelion grass and carried the Divine Movement Technique to the General Affairs Hall.

The wealth referred to in the immortal cultivation realm naturally corresponds to immortal cultivation resources such as spirit stones and pills.

In the Qingyun Sect, the source of immortal cultivation resources is one is the monthly income, and the other is to obtain contribution points by completing the tasks issued by the sect in exchange.

The former can receive a piece of Yulu every month, but he must complete a sect task within half a year, otherwise he will be cancelled, and if he does not complete the sect task for two consecutive years, he will be expelled from the sect.

It can be cumulative, and it can be completed in half a year, and if there are special circumstances, such as retreat breakthrough cultivation, etc., you need to report to the Zongwu Hall in advance.

The latter needs to meet certain conditions by itself, and only after putting in the effort can he obtain contribution points, and then exchange them for corresponding cultivation resources according to the contribution points.

Although there are tedious chores to do, and it is impossible to achieve the so-called immortal leisure in the mouth of mortals, even so, it is beyond the reach of countless scattered cultivators, and they are eager to replace it.

After all, in these years, it has never been common for hard work to be rewarded, let alone in this world of cultivating immortals.

At this time, there were already disciples walking on the mountain road, walking alone, in groups, energetic, sleepy-eyed, all rushing to the mountain.

From time to time, there were flashes of spiritual light and white shadows in the sky, which were the inner disciples of the Imperial Flying Sect.

Of course, occasionally, I would see the elders of the foundation building period who swept through the air, which caused a burst of envy from everyone below.

Lin Chen came to a huge ancient tree.

At this moment, vines fell from the tree, forming a rattan ladder that connected a monk into the tree.

What catches your eye is a screen of light. The handwriting on it kept changing, and finally formed a complete prompt: Please go to the No. 2 General Affairs Hall to handle chores from No. 135......

'Every time I come here, I feel like I'm going back to my previous life to handle business...... Lin Chen couldn't help but regret it.

There are tens of thousands of people in the Qingyun Sect, and the General Affairs Hall is an important existence to maintain the operation of the sect, and the number of people staying here at least more than a hundred people at any moment, unless hundreds of windows are opened, it will not be able to meet everyone's needs at the same time.

Of course, queues are also possible. But let's not talk about how different cultivators are willing to line up together, just the exchange of immortal cultivation resources is a very private issue.

After all, in this world of cultivating immortals, plundering resources is the norm, if some disciples are jealous of the spiritual objects exchanged by others, even if the sect stipulates that they are not allowed to kill each other, but the behavior of oppressing people with power and coercion and temptation cannot be avoided.

In order to ensure fairness, at least on the surface, the elders of the sect set up this way of queuing up for numbers, receiving tasks, and exchanging resources.

However, Lin Chen did not go to the counter in the hall to inquire and pick up tasks, but walked into an aisle, turned around, and finally entered a room.

A monk surnamed Lu once said, "Where there are people, there is privilege."

The same is true in the Qingyun Sect.

The tasks on the light screen in the hall were all screened, and the really easy and oily ones had long been intercepted, and most of the rest were hard work.

These screened chores can only be received by disciples who are extremely talented or have relationships.

And Lin Chen was only told that he had won the top three in the outer gate.

"I'll go and pick up a medicine garden or Dantang mission first, and then go down the mountain and sell the talismans made during this time, and earn enough spirit stones to support my [Soul Nourishing Incense 3.0] version of the research ......'

Lin Chen walked into the room, and behind the counter in the room, a white-bearded old man seemed to be looking at something interesting, engrossed, and his mouth made a "tsk" sound from time to time, completely unaware of Lin Chen's arrival.

Lin Chen didn't care, and walked over directly.

"Uncle Shi, I'm here to take over the task. Teacher? Lin Chen called softly twice, and when he saw that the other party should not be, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and poked his head over to take a look.

What to see? So energetic?

Since from his point of view, the text is reversed, the translation took a while.

Curtain flowers?

'Huh?! How does the name of this book feel familiar? ’

Lin Chen continued to aim.

Well?!

Lin Chen thinks that in order to study, he has interpreted a lot of exercises, and he is also excellent among his peers in this regard, but how does he translate this text, and how does he feel it......

Swish!

"Good!" The old man turned the next page with great interest, but suddenly paused, because the next page was blank, and there was no follow-up.

"Holy! Here's what's next, what's next! Which author who killed a thousand knives wrote only half of the article? Seeing this scene, the old man's face was flushed with anger, and the old hand was trembling and holding the book.

Just when the old man in charge was about to lift the knife, a voice suddenly came from the side: "Uncle Shi, since there is no follow-up, is it capable of doing the right thing?"

"I'll go!" The old man was full of wit, and burst into a foul mouth, like a cat that had been stepped on by the tail, he jumped up, pointed at Lin Chen and said in a trembling voice: "You, when did you come over......"

"It didn't take long to get here. I had reminded Uncle Shi, but Uncle Shi seemed to be too focused and didn't pay attention to me, so I just stood by and waited for a while. Lin Chen said lightly, "But then again, look at the time of duty......"

The old man hurriedly stopped Lin Chen's words: "Cough, cough, don't misunderstand, this is the old man's grandson's book, I, I'm just curious to open it and take a look!"

"Although I don't really want to say it, I think it's necessary to remind Uncle Shi." Lin Chen reminded expressionlessly.

"Young monks nowadays are more impetuous, and prefer to read plain texts that are easy to understand, rather than obscure ancient texts. Therefore, "The Shadow of the Curtain Flower", "Yulou Spring", "Nine-Tailed Turtle" and the like like Uncle Shi are outdated......"

Outdated......

Outdated......

"How is that possible?!" The old man's face turned dark, and he shouted with his neck open, "I spent a whole ten spirit stones to buy it, how could I buy outdated goods?!" ”

"Oh? Ten spirit stones? Uncle Shi, then you are really at a loss......" Before he could finish speaking, Lin Chen's body was stunned, and his eyes suddenly widened.

What? Ten spirit stones? This type of broken book is so valuable?!

The two stared at the small eye with big eyes, and the room suddenly fell silent.

"Ahem!" The old man realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly changed the topic, "My nephew is here to receive a task, what task do you want from me, Uncle Shi will definitely help you find it!" ”

Lin Chen exhaled lightly and said, "That's it...... Uncle Shi, my nephew won't hide it from you, I had a lot of chores last time, little money, and less space to operate, so I hope that I can find a good chores in the medicine garden this time. ”

Lin Chen's tone deliberately accentuated the manipulable space, missing these words.

When the old man heard this, he immediately understood what this master and nephew meant, it was nothing more than to find a chorre with less work, more money, and especially enough oil and water!

So he immediately searched.

"Coincidentally, the No. 6 Medicine Garden of C-Zi happens to lack a disciple who will connect with the spirit grass of the Dan Hall for a period of six months, and he will take office in three days, what does Master Lin's nephew think?"

Soon, he arranged a task for Lin Chen to take care of the medicine garden.

Qingyun Sect divides the elixir garden where the elixir is cultivated into four levels: A, B, and C, corresponding to the Jindan period, the foundation building period, and the qi refining period, respectively. Corresponding to the realm of cultivators, for example, the medicine garden of the second rank is generally planted with elixirs suitable for monks in the foundation building period.

"This ......" Lin Chen was a little surprised.

The main task of this task is to send the elixir from the medicine garden to the Dan Hall, and then count the daily consumption of the elixir in the Dan Hall and report it.

Don't look at this position as just a medicine carrier, but as long as you do a good job, the oil and water are very sufficient!

Such a good errand turn to get yourself?

However, Lin Chen saw the old face that was smiling into a chrysanthemum on the other side, and suddenly understood why.

Oh, it's hush money, I know, I know. So Lin Chen nodded.

The old man quickly registered, explained some matters that need attention, and gave Lin Chen a bronze token, with this token, he could open the elixir garden formation ban, and when the task was over, this token would be returned.

Lin Chen took the token and turned around to leave, but was suddenly stopped.

"Then, that nephew, those books you just talked about...... the old man in charge smiled heavily, rubbed his hands, and asked in a low voice.

"Oh." Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, then reacted and explained, "I've just heard of these books......

The old man didn't speak, but looked at him directly, his face full of distrust.

Lin Chen's face was straight: "Uncle Shi, don't get me wrong, I just read more books, and I know a little bit, but I never read this kind of thing, I'm a serious person."

After saying that, he immediately turned around and left.

"Nowadays, young people don't know how to share good things." Looking at Lin Chen's distant back, the old man pouted, "Okay, the old man happens to have a grandson, maybe he can ......"

……

After Lin Chen walked out of the Comprehensive Affairs Hall, he rushed to the outside of the sect without stopping.

"Originally, I was still worrying, after the cultivation was further improved, how could I get enough spirit stones to support my cultivation and research, but I didn't expect to get this news unexpectedly......

On the way down the mountain to Fang City, Lin Chen stroked his chin thoughtfully.

Scientific research is very expensive. The refining of soul nourishing incense, the breakthrough of the simulated foundation building period, and the consumption of exploring the laws of spiritual energy, etc., have a very large consumption of spirit stones.

Even though he had become a talisman maker and secretly sold some research results and earned a lot of spirit stones, even so, he was still stretched.

If it weren't for the fact that he used to fight and kill, kill a lot of evil cultivators, and subsidize a lot of extra money, he really wouldn't be able to hold on.

But with the progress of cultivation, the consumption of resources is getting bigger and bigger, which has become a problem that Lin Chen cannot avoid.

Some people say that you can kill people and take treasures.

But the poor rob the poor, how much oil and water can be fished?

Even if you rob the rich and help the poor, the problem is that this world of cultivating immortals has a large number of spirit stones, if it is not a powerful great cultivator, or a second-generation immortal with a strong background.

The former can't be beaten, and the latter, is it true that all the elders in someone's family are dead?

And research and experiments require a lot of time and energy, and a lot of spirit stones are invested.

During the Qi refining period, the research experiments were not yet advanced, and the results were fast, and he could still hold on.

But what about Zhuji, Jindan, and even Yuanying?

The research experiments of [Soul] and [Yuanshen] may be hundreds of years at a time, and I don't know how much is invested. Could it be that at that time, he will be closed for a period of time, and then come out to kill people and rob treasures?

Therefore, it is necessary to find a way to make money in a long way.

Originally, Lin Chen was thinking of choosing one to cultivate immortals and be good at all arts, so as to earn spirit stones.

But when Lin Chen observed for many years, he found that whether it was alchemy, refining, or other immortal cultivation arts, he looked tall, but in fact he was still a working boy!

And going to work? Are you kidding! Is there any way to work part-time these days?

Not only is the autonomy not in their hands, but no matter how good they do, they are still an object of oppression!

If you want to be truly rich and have a "way to make money", you should become the controller of the platform, be a middleman between the buyer and the seller, and take it all at both ends.

But among the sects, the platforms for immortal cultivation items such as pills and spiritual weapons have long been divided up by the major factions of the sect.

Although with Lin Chen's potential, after the promotion foundation building period, he can join one of the parties and get a part of the platform after decades of life and death.

But not to mention the time and energy consumed, even if it is done, there are more people and less meat, and there is not much to share.

And Lin Chen estimated that if he wanted to support the research of cultivating immortals, this share was far from enough!

Originally, he was still worrying about this matter, but the matter of managing the old man just now gave him a direction!

"I didn't expect this type of book to be so marketable in the sect, and there are ten spirit stones, and the writing is not good, and it is not as exciting as watching it on a website in my previous life......"

"In that case, can I copy out the articles and texts of my previous life and sell them in this life?"

"One book can sell ten spirit stones? There are more than 100,000 people in the whole sect, even if it is sold to one percent, isn't it a profit? ”

"And I gradually became famous through continuous sales. When the time comes, I can't just find some writers to help me write essays, and then sell them to other disciples, become middlemen to earn the difference, and then monopolize the market, and then ......"

The more he thought about it, Lin Chen's eyes gradually brightened.

Lin Chen suddenly discovered that the wealth of the traverser was not only scientific thinking, but also the wealth of knowledge from major websites, and how to ...... Oh no, it's a way to benefit the vast number of monks at the bottom!

Besides, whether it is alchemy or refining, you need enough spirit stones as start-up capital, but writing a book is different!

As long as you copy the content you saw on the website in your previous life, wouldn't it be profitable?

As for whether the book written can compete with others in the spiritual book market of the sect?

What are you kidding, the knowledge reserves of our modern people are not as good as the ancients in this regard?!

Lin Chen secretly made a decision in his heart.

"When I am promoted to the stage of [Cyclone Realm] in the late stage of Qi refining, I must copy the knowledge of the previous life website and use it for the benefit of my fellow juniors!" ’
