PDLP Chapter 111 needs extra money!
Chapter 111 needs extra money!
Upon hearing that there was a merit-based reward, the Jie Sect cultivators were immediately excited.
Since the beginning of the Three Realms, they have gone to great lengths to accumulate merit.
A great demon of the Golden Immortal Realm, the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, without using supernatural powers or magic, relied solely on his brute strength to help the human race carve out mountains and open up rivers, working diligently and conscientiously.
And just like that, one slip-up and all the merit you've earned could fly away.
The benefits of accumulating merit are self-evident. First of all, those ranked in the top thousand can go to the top-tier blessed lands to cultivate.
During the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, they didn't feel anything, but when the Earthly Immortal Realm was established, they deeply felt the bitter taste of the decline of innate spiritual energy.
At this time, the allure of top-tier paradises is simply off the charts.
Secondly, having good fortune by one's side, turning misfortune into good fortune, and greatly increasing one's spiritual practice bring numerous benefits that are simply indescribable.
In the current Jie Sect, even if you have high cultivation and strong supernatural powers, it doesn't necessarily mean anything.
However, if you accumulate enough merit, even if you are only a Celestial Immortal cultivator, you will attract countless envious glances.
At this moment, upon hearing that their sect leader actually had a way to reliably obtain merit, how could they not be excited!
After a moment of excitement, the Holy Mother Wudang, now the Great Emperor Gouchen, spoke first, asking, "What kind of fortuitous opportunity is this? We hope the Sect Leader will tell us!"
The other Jie Sect cultivators also looked at their sect leader with eager eyes.
Zhao Gongming waved his hand, "Although this opportunity can help me plan for good deeds, there are rules to follow and many requirements!"
I just don't know if you guys can do it!
The underworld also has its own rules of operation. If one violates the laws of the underworld, even the Lord of Fengdu cannot act out of personal favoritism.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing Zhao Gongming's words, not a single one of the Jie Sect cultivators backed down. They all patted their chests and assured him, "Sect Leader, rest assured!"
We are the most law-abiding!
As long as there is merit to be gained, let alone one rule, even ten or a thousand, we will abide by them!
Too many rules?
Can any more meritorious deeds be compared to their scheming?
Moreover, when planning for meritorious deeds, a single misstep can render centuries or millennia of effort futile.
At least this way, one can reliably accumulate merit.
Looking at this group of simpletons in front of him, Zhao Gongming was both amused and exasperated.
Is this guy a cultivator?
People would believe they were a group of bandits.
It's practically like saying, "Brother, you can rest assured about how I handle things!"
However, it was precisely the straightforwardness of the Jie Sect cultivators that made him feel that his many schemes had not been in vain.
Otherwise, if they were all traitors like the disciples of the Chan Sect, Zhao Gongming wouldn't bother with them. Wouldn't it be better to stay in his own chaotic starry sky and cultivate diligently behind closed doors?
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Gongming raised his hand to signal for silence, then spoke calmly:
"As fellow disciples should know, I am the Great Emperor of the North Pole Purple Star. Not long ago, I also proclaimed to the Heavenly Dao that I am in charge of the power of the Northern Yin Fengdu!"
The Underworld is vacant; the Yama Palace, the Soul Reapers, and the Judges are all short-handed!
Aside from the positions of the Ten Kings of Hell, the remaining positions are not fixed; they rotate periodically. This ensures the smooth operation of the underworld and provides everyone with a stable channel for accumulating merit!
With thousands of disciples of the Jie Sect and all holding positions in the Underworld, there's simply not enough room to manage them all. Moreover, his task this time isn't just to assign duties to the Underworld departments.
Before the Jie Sect cultivators could even rejoice, the system matched them with a Xianxia (fantasy martial arts) novel category. Click to view details. Zhao Gongming then made another startling statement: "Besides this matter of accumulating merit!"
I do have a method for constructing earth vein nodes, which I will pass on to all my disciples!
If you use this method of constructing earth vein nodes to build and repair earth veins and spiritual veins, you can exchange them for a top-level blessed land every thousand years, and have a chance to cultivate for a hundred years once a year!
Of course, opportunities for cultivation can be accumulated. For example, five thousand years of repair time can be exchanged for a total of five hundred years of cultivation time!
The situation has been explained; what are everyone's thoughts?
Upon hearing this, the Jie Sect cultivators below were taken aback, but then they erupted in excitement once again.
Earth vein node construction method?
They could hardly believe their ears. As the saying goes, repair is a thousand times, ten thousand times harder than destruction!
The reason why the spiritual energy in the Earthly Immortal Realm has declined is because the earth's spiritual veins have been broken!
But now, their own sect leader actually has such a method for constructing earth vein nodes. Doesn't this mean that the disciples of the Jie Sect can create their own "Grotto-Heavens and Blessed Lands"?
Although it cannot compare to the environment before the primordial chaos was destroyed, it can still be considered a blessed land in the Earthly Immortal Realm where spiritual energy has declined.
Most importantly, by creating a "blessed land" for oneself, one can also go to the truly top-tier blessed land to cultivate. In this way, even if the process of constructing the earth vein nodes will delay one's cultivation, the top-tier blessed land can completely make up for it, and even more than enough.
For a moment, the disciples of the Jie Sect were overjoyed.
After a brief silence, the disciples of the Jie Sect spoke up one after another: "Sect Leader, the responsibility for the Netherworld Fruit position and the construction of the earth vein nodes falls squarely on my shoulders. When it comes to upholding the rules, no one in the entire Jie Sect dares to claim first place if I say I'm second!"
"Bullshit! Kui Niu, when you were repairing the river for the Su Feng tribe, you were the one who took a fancy to that human cow and forcibly abducted her!"
"Stop arguing, Sect Leader! This kind of thing should be handled by me!"
"Sect Leader, I'm in a terrible state! I want to write a huge 'terrible' character on the ground. Tens of thousands of years have passed, and all the merit I've plotted is still at the bottom of the list in the entire Jie Sect!"
"Trying to outdo each other in misery, huh? Who among you can compare to me, Xunfeng Xiaosheng, in my misery back then..."
Hearing these shouts, all the disciples of the Jie Sect were stunned.
Infinite Heavenly Venerable!
shameful!
That's absolutely shameful!
These are dignified cultivators, including many Taiyi Golden Immortals, yet they've managed to do something as pathetic as playing the victim.
No!
We can't let these guys gain the upper hand.
As a result, all the members of the Jie Sect began to engage in a sob story contest.
Seeing this, Zhao Gongming was overjoyed, but also felt a throbbing pain in his head.
What's gratifying is that these fellow disciples have clearly ingrained the idea of accumulating merit into their very bones; they can forgo the noodles, but they must accumulate merit.
What's painful is that he actually saw the shadows of those two in this group of guys!
These clueless fools managed to turn the Jiejiao infrastructure mobilization meeting into a sob story event.
Zhao Gongming, feeling a headache coming on, couldn't help but ask, "You are cultivators, where is your integrity? Where is your dignity?"
Of course, if he were to ask that question.
These simpletons would probably answer directly that cultivators value dignity above all else.
What? You're saying you want to exchange it for good deeds?
That's the dignity and face of a spiritual practitioner... They deserve extra merit!
