Chapter 184: Earning Contribution to the Sect
Chapter 184: Earning Contribution to the Sect
The sect’s welfare is naturally excellent.
Even for guest elders, the caves they were arranged to live in were all located in a courtyard with three entrances and three exits on the hillside of the main peak.
The level of spiritual energy there is far beyond what the Jiang family's courtyard can compare to.
"The spiritual vein of our Tieyun Sect consists of one main vein and three branches. The three branches lead to three sub-peaks, and all the branches are first-level spiritual veins."
"And the main vein is a second-level spiritual vein. Under the effect of the spirit gathering array, it can be used for cultivation until the foundation is complete."
Wang Tieyuan introduced in detail, "But if it involves the Jindan realm, you have to practice in the practice room on the top of the mountain. You have been there before. The spiritual energy is more abundant. It is the core area of the spiritual vein. It is also equipped with a spirit gathering array using spirit stones."
"For elders like us, we have a three-day quota every month. If we need to use more, we have to spend spirit stones or make contributions from the sect."
Ye Yunqi nodded. The first time he came to Tieyun Sect, he came there to help Wang Tieyuan break through.
Apart from Duanmu Ya's quiet room, the quiet room on the top of Tieyun Sect's mountain is the place where Ye Yunqi has ever felt the most abundant spiritual energy.
"In addition to these, there are also elders' robes, and a monthly salary of fifty points of sect contribution, which can be exchanged for fifty low-grade spirit stones."
Speaking of spirit stones, Wang Tieyuan seemed a little embarrassed and added: "Fifty spirit stones may not be a big deal for a third-level craftsman, but the products needed by the sect will all be purchased with spirit stones or sect contributions."
"Moreover, the sect contribution is more useful in the sect than spirit stones."
"For example, the Foundation Establishment Pill only requires 2,000 contribution points in the sect."
Ye Yunqi nodded and muttered to himself: In this way, I can prepare the foundation-building pill for Jiang Qingzi faster.
Ye Yunqi had learned about this before and knew that it was much easier for the sect disciples to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill.
It is about two to three thousand spirit stones, but this is strictly controlled. If it is leaked to the outside market, one foundation-building pill is worth five thousand spirit stones.
If there is a rush to buy and the price goes up, the price may even double.
Now that he has entered the sect, Ye Yunqi also understands how the sect is managed.
The contribution to the sect seems to be one to one with the lower-grade spirit stones.
But when purchasing scarce resources, the purchasing power is much higher than that of spirit stones.
The sect only needs to control the distribution of contributions and there is no need to worry about the sect's foundation-building pills being leaked.
There might be a small number of disciples who are in urgent need of spirit stones and would exchange their contribution points for resources to sell outside, but the number would not be too large. Naturally, they would not lower their own value.
Ye Yunqi nodded: "I wonder if the sect needs my help now?"
“This…” Wang Tieyuan said a little embarrassedly, “This is indeed true. After the Demon Suppression Conference, we also collected a lot of demon beast corpses… I have wanted to contact Elder Ye for a long time, but I heard that Elder Ye has been busy recently, so I waited until now.”
"It's better to do it now than to wait for a day, so I'll start now." Ye Yunqi nodded, "Anything below level three can be delivered."
"Okay!" Wang Tieyuan handed the jade token of the villa formation to Ye Yunqi, turned around and started to make arrangements.
Ye Yunqi refined the jade token and controlled the formation of the other courtyard as he wished. Walking into the courtyard, Ye Yunqi said to Duanmu Ya, "Daoyou Duanmu, I still need to be busy for a while. How about you go back first?"
Duanmu Ya shook her head: "Don't worry about me, I'll just stay with you."
In fact, Ye Yunqi had almost lost interest in the benefits of the blood-eating technique.
Even if it was the second-level blood-eating technique, the maximum profit would be ten spirit stones.
There is no difference between the pricing of the magic water and the pricing of the blood essence.
It’s just that the magic water can only be refined to the third level.
The first level costs one spirit stone, the second level costs ten spirit stones, and the third level can be sold for one hundred spirit stones.
As for the blood essence, if you have no money, you can stop taking it and take it slowly.
But once the effect of the magic water wears off, you won’t be able to maintain your complexion if you don’t take it again.
In comparison, the financial resources of Shenxianshui are naturally broader and more stable.
But now that I am not well off, I cannot afford to give up the benefits of the blood-eating technique.
Moreover, now that he has become a guest elder, he cannot just ignore the Tieyun Sect's needs.
In addition, after becoming an elder, settlement is based on contribution to the sect.
Ye Yunqi also became more motivated.
Soon, Wang Tieyuan brought five storage bags that looked quite luxurious.
Ye Yunqi's eye twitched when he saw this.
The storage bag is gorgeous, which means there must be a lot of space inside.
The larger the space, the more corpses it can hold.
There are five such storage bags.
Wang Tieyuan smiled awkwardly: "Here are the corpses of the beasts from this period of time. Thank you for your hard work, Elder Ye. After the refining is completed, you can contact me using the jade seal."
"Okay." Ye Yunqi agreed with a wry smile.
He came to the quiet room, picked up a storage bag, and with his mind sensing, he saw countless dead animal corpses stacked up inside.
The tragic scene was so shocking that it seemed like the beginning of a conference to slay demons.
"Oh, never mind. I'm used to it." Ye Yunqi sighed and took out ten corpses of monsters at the same time.
Then he pinched his fingers and spiritual energy and consciousness emanated.
The blood-eating technique sounds simple, it is just to extract and condense the blood essence from the corpse of the monster.
Converted into elixir or magic water, this is just the first step.
After Ye Yunqi established his foundation, his spiritual consciousness was nurtured and he could do many things at once and extract more blood and energy essence at the same time.
Soon, the rich blood energy filled the entire quiet room.
Countless blood and energy were extracted and condensed, and then the condensed animal corpses and blood and energy essence were stuffed into the storage bag, and a new batch was taken out from the storage bag.
Slowly increase from ten to twenty.
It was not until he felt the quiet room was too cramped that he slowly stopped at refining twenty at a time.
The wounds on these animal corpses were still there, and when they were taken out from the solidified space in the storage bag, it was inevitable that a lot of blood would splash onto the ground and the walls.
Soon, the quiet room was filled with blood, like the lair of a demonic blood demon.
Three days passed by in a hurry.
Ye Yunqi picked up the storage bag and sensed with his mind that there were no more corpses that could be extracted.
Focusing my mind on the quiet room in front of me, I felt a little regretful.
I still like my new home very much, but it's a pity that the quiet room has been ruined like this. There was blood all around, but Ye Yunqi in the middle was the only one who had no dirt on his body. His smooth white hands touched the jade seal.
Through the jade seal, he could vaguely sense the auras of the sect master and several elders, and sent a message to Elder Wang: "Elder Wang, I have completed the condensation, please come to my quiet room."
"I'll be there right away." Wang Tieyuan replied.
Soon, there was a knock on the door of the quiet room.
"Just come in." As soon as Ye Yunqi finished speaking, Wang Tieyuan opened the door of the quiet room. A strong smell of blood rushed in. Wang Tieyuan looked inside and was stunned for a moment.
The scene before my eyes was truly breathtaking.
Some of the demon blood had just fallen, and was bright red, still sliding down the wall. Some had come from the past three days, and had turned black and dried on the ground.
Ye Yunqi, who was sitting in the middle, was too clean and too enchanting.
"Elder Ye, are you... okay?"
"What's wrong with that?" Ye Yunqi sighed, "It's a pity that my meditation room is terribly dirty. It looks like I need to clean it up."
Then Ye Yunqi waved his sleeves and a cleaning spell hit the ground, which only pushed the dirt to both sides and cleared a path for passage.
Ye Yunqi walked to Wang Tieyuan and handed back the five storage bags: "The corpse and blood essence are all in it. The reward will be exchanged for contribution. By the way, can I exchange it for the foundation-building pill?"
"Of course." Wang Tieyuan nodded, and did not ask why Ye Yunqi wanted to exchange for the foundation-building pill since he had already established the foundation.
Sects pay attention to the inheritance of master and apprentice. Sometimes the master exchanges the foundation-building pill for the apprentice. Even if Ye Yunqi has no apprentice, does that mean his family can't use it? If the Ye family can't use it, there is still the Jiang family.
Even if I exchange it and sell it for money, I can still sell a few more spirit stones, right?
The sect won’t care about this.
Or, in other words, this is the benefit left for the sect members. However, most of the time, the sect members would rather keep the contribution and exchange it for precious resources for themselves, rather than use it to trade for spirit stones.
Wang Tieyuan looked at the quiet room and said, "This is easy to deal with. I'll clean it up for you, okay?"
Ye Yunqi nodded, and Wang Tieyuan waved his sleeves, and the quiet room suddenly seemed to come alive.
All the dirty demon blood flew into the air and condensed into a smelly, black and red dirty ball.
"What kind of magic is this? Can I learn it? It will be more convenient in the future after I learn it." Ye Yunqi was a little curious. This magic was much better than the cleaning magic.
After all, the cleaning technique is just an entry-level technique that can be learned at the first level of Qi training, so it naturally has many shortcomings.
Wang Tieyuan smiled and shook his head: "It's not some magic, it's just using brute force at the Jindan level."
Hiss...Ye Yunqi was also a little helpless.
Versailles, right?
It’s just a golden elixir. I can do it sooner or later!
The two men walked out of the yard, and then the dirty ball also flew out of the yard and burned in a ball of fire, leaving only a wisp of green smoke and some dust that dissipated with the wind.
Wang Tieyuan shook the storage bag in his hand and said, "These can be converted into 500 contribution points, or spirit stones. Can I exchange them for contribution points?"
"Just exchange it for contribution points." Ye Yunqi took out some more magical water, including the first, second and third level. "These are magical waters that can nourish the skin and enhance a person's closeness to the Great Dao. Does the sect need them?"
Wang Tieyuan laughed and half-jokingly said, "Is this the magical water that can cultivate the Dao intention and build the foundation? Of course the sect needs it. Isn't it because they are afraid that they will ask you to do too much and scare you when you come?"
Ye Yunqi sighed, "My wife Qingzi has already reached the perfection of Qi training, and is now continuing to build the foundation pill. It's okay if she has to work a little harder. However, the Divine Water can only add some possibilities to the Daoyi foundation building, but it is not an absolute certainty."
"I understand. Just like the foundation-building pill, it is not certain that one can build a foundation." Wang Tieyuan said as he took the magic water from Ye Yunqi's hand. "But with the help of Fellow Daoist Ye, I think your ladyship will be able to break through the foundation easily. I would like to congratulate you in advance."
"Borrowing the good words from fellow Taoist friends."
"These magical waters are worth about 300 spirit stones according to the market price, so I will convert them into 300 contribution points." Wang Tieyuan stretched out his hand and touched his elder seal. "Now you can sense the elder jade seal and you should be able to feel your contribution."
Ye Yunqi's mind fell into the jade seal, and he indeed felt that his contribution was 850 points.
Eight hundred is what I earned during this period, and fifty is this month's salary.
If you make a lot of money like these three every day, it won't be difficult to make the Foundation Establishment Pill.
But such things don't happen often.
Wang Tieyuan and Ye Yunqi chatted for a while and then left in a hurry.
Duanmu Ya came out from the side and said, "Fellow Daoist Ye, are you done?"
"Yes." Ye Yunqi was filled with emotion, "It is indeed very tiring, but when I was extracting blood and energy, I felt something faintly."
"What?" Duanmu Ya was a little confused.
"It seems that thunder magic is also helpful in extracting blood and qi, but thunder magic is too harsh. I am afraid that it will destroy the demon's blood and qi. I have been too busy these days and have no time. I can try it after I go back." Ye Yunqi expressed his doubts.
Duanmu Ya shook her head: "My understanding of thunder magic is superficial, and I don't understand blood feeding technique either, so I can't help you with this."
"And you don't have to work so hard. A third-level craftsman is qualified to accept apprentices. The sect emphasizes the inheritance of master and apprentice, so it naturally encourages accepting apprentices. You can accept a few apprentices to do chores for you, or you can assign tasks assigned by the sect to your apprentices. Just share some of the rewards."
Want to accept a disciple?
Ye Yunqi's eyes moved slightly, and then he shook his head.
For a sect, they naturally focus on the inheritance between master and disciple, but for a family, they focus on the inheritance of bloodline.
I don't know many skills, and the skills extracted by the system don't seem to be common.
I can't pass on my skills casually, it's better to pass it on to the Ye family.
What Duanmu Ya said just now, at first glance, being an apprentice to a craftsman is like being exploited like an ox or a horse, but a skill is extremely important, and being an apprentice is a blessing that the disciples of the sect cannot ask for.
Since it is a blessing, it is better to pass it on to your descendants.
In the future, I will let my descendants come and learn the art of eating blood and learn how to make the magic water.
But now, the descendants of the Ye family are all small fry and can't accomplish anything.
I can only start with the child’s mother.
Jiang Qingzi has already mastered the first level of blood feeding technique, and all the tasks of extracting blood essence commissioned by the family have been assigned to Jiang Qingzi.
Now it seems that it is time to try the second-level magic water.
In this way, we can share the miscellaneous tasks of Tieyun Sect.
Ye Yunqi replied: "Daoyou Duanmu, I have many descendants. To be frank, I'd better leave these skills to my descendants as a job."
Duanmu Ya smiled and said, "I was mistaken. Families and sects have two different ways of doing things. It has nothing to do with being stingy. It's just that I saw you wearing elder robes and a jade seal on your waist, and for a moment I mistook you for a sect elder."
Ye Yunqi looked at the Tieyun Sect's robes on his body. The Tieyun Sect's robes were naturally made for body-refining cultivators.
It is somewhat similar to the training clothes from previous life.
The dark black robes made the other elders of Tieyun Sect look particularly domineering.
But on Ye Yunqi, he looked handsome and elegant.
