"No." Deng Fugui slowly shook his head. Becoming one of the Ten Elders did have its advantages. After all, it was the management group of the supernatural world, so how could it not have any benefits?
What he said was not false, but there were some preconditions.
To gain status as one of the Ten Elders, possess exceptional personal martial prowess, have a promising future for your faction, boast strong overall martial strength, and be willing to cooperate with the "Company" to maintain balance, then...
The company's attitude will be more tolerant.
"Really?" Fang Rui's gaze gradually sharpened, and the sense of oppression he exuded increased accordingly.
As a seasoned adult, Deng Fugui disregarded the oppressive atmosphere and met Fang Rui's gaze with composure, his tone full of certainty: "It's true!"
Having little experience and unable to judge the truthfulness of Deng Fugui's words, Fang Rui withdrew his gaze and said softly, "...Let me think it over."
After parting ways with Deng Fugui, Fang Rui sought out Ma Xianhong to discuss the matter with him.
"Tch~ the company!" Ma Xianhong's tone was full of disdain, reflecting his negative view of the company.
Ignoring Ma Xianhong's hostile attitude, Fang Rui thought for a moment and said, "Although the title doesn't sound very good, there are indeed many benefits to becoming one of the Ten Elders."
It is indeed easier to act when one has both power and authority.
"So... you plan to become one of the Ten Elders?" Ma Xianhong asked.
“I think… it would be interesting if you became one of the Ten Elders,” Fang Rui said.
“I refuse. I have no interest in becoming one of the Ten Elders.” Ma Xianhong showed no sign of being tempted and raised his right palm to indicate his refusal.
"What a pity." Fang Rui didn't try to persuade him, but said, "Whether I become one of the Ten Elders or not is fine with me. Let nature take its course! I can try if I have the chance, but if I don't, then so be it."
Upon hearing this, Ma Xianhong promptly ended the topic he disliked, then pulled out a design drawing from somewhere and urged:
"Enough with the small talk, come and help me take a look at the Body Refining Furnace and see what aspects can be improved."
In terms of advanced technology, thanks to the simulator, Fang Rui is slightly better than Ma Xianhong. After carefully examining the design drawings for a while, he pointed out three areas for optimization.
After explaining how to upgrade, Fang Rui said, "I think the Body Cultivation Furnace has reached its bottleneck. Continuing to upgrade it will only make it more efficient and its existing effects stronger..."
"Ok, I know."
Ma Xianhong had a serious expression. He knew a lot about the Body Refining Furnace, especially after modifying it multiple times and seeing the modified version made by Fang Rui. He decided to add new things to the Body Refining Furnace.
As for what to add, he hasn't decided yet.
Results are the result of repeated experiments, so... keep trying!
"I'm considering adding some new technologies to the body-soothing furnace, but I don't have any concrete ideas yet..."
Ma Xianhong shared his thoughts, looking at Fang Rui with expectant eyes, waiting for him to give him some advice.
After living together for several months, Ma Xianhong had come to know Fang Rui to a certain extent. He was certain that Fang Rui was a guy whose inspiration never ran dry, and he would come up with a new invention every now and then, along with all sorts of random ideas...
In short, he can give you any answer you ask, whether it's good or bad is another matter.
"I think you could find a warlock to help you," Fang Rui suggested.
In the original storyline, with the help of a sorcerer, Ma Xianhong upgraded the Body Cultivation Furnace and obtained the Body Cultivation Furnace Plus. Unfortunately, it was dismantled by a shameless person before he could even use it once.
Now that Ma Xianhong has been given direction at least a year in advance, the Gold Luxury Edition Body-Cultivating Furnace Plus has ample time to demonstrate its value.
“Warlock.” Ma Xianhong nodded slightly, finding Fang Rui’s suggestion excellent.
He pondered for a moment and said, "The two most famous sorcerers in the world of supernatural beings today are Chen Jinkui of the Spells Sect and Zhuge Gong, the current leader of the Marquis Wu Sect."
Fang Rui: "…………" What are you saying?
Could it be that they're planning to ask these two to come and help?
I can say with certainty that if you dare to tell those two about the existence of the Body Refinement Furnace, they'll report you the very next second.
“No, those two are too high-ranking; they’re difficult to invite.” After a while, Ma Xianhong shook his head and said.
Wow, you really want to invite those two?
Fang Rui was speechless for a few seconds. He wanted to recommend a few suitable candidates, but he realized that he didn't know many warlocks at all.
In the world of supernatural beings, sorcerers and weapon refiners are similar, belonging to rare species with relatively small numbers.
"Let's get Bi Yuan to keep an eye on him! To prevent him from making a fool of himself and getting into trouble."
With that thought in mind, Fang Rui took out his phone, quickly edited a message and sent it to Bi Yuan, while he himself returned to the construction site to continue building the training ground.
Upon receiving the message, Bi Yuan looked speechless, slowly stood up, and leisurely walked towards the Cultivation Hall.
"Another troublesome matter."
Meanwhile, Guan Shihua and others, having received news from Deng Fugui and others, were also discussing how to transport the spirits.
One of the spirits is a Siberian tiger, and the other is a sika deer, both of which are listed as first-class protected species. If the transportation method is not carefully selected, you could end up in jail in no time.
Both animals and humans will go inside.
Getting people out of there will be a very troublesome thing.
After some discussion, the group decided to take a safer approach, such as avoiding main roads and taking side roads, staying away from cities and villages, bringing their own food for the entire journey, using an armored truck, and sealing the rear compartment...
One thing after another.
Who is in charge of the branch in Biyou Village?
Upon hearing this, everyone present fell silent.
To be honest, they never expected Uncle Fugui to be so powerful, actually managing to acquire a piece of land within someone else's sphere of influence to open a temple.
What level of eloquence is required to accomplish this?!
“The situation is special, so send two more people. Fugui will stay there, and the remaining two, one of whom will be given to Youfu.”
Guan Shihua looked at the others: "For the other spot, please recommend someone."
Upon hearing this, the others exchanged glances for a moment...
Chapter 68: I Choose You, Simulator
The training ground was completed one day later.
Two days later, the shaman's altar was completed.
On the third day, while Fang Rui was using his supernatural powers to work on the two buildings, the second group of people from the Chuma Xian family had arrived in Biyou Village.
"Wow, this village is quite interesting!"
The passenger door was pushed open, and a plainly dressed girl stepped out of the car, gazing at the martial arts training ground nestled between two mountains with a hint of admiration in her voice.
Someone actually built a fighting arena in the village?!
That's a fantastic idea!
Silently giving herself a thumbs up, she turned and walked to the back of the vehicle, opened the door, and sunlight streamed into the compartment. A majestic tiger lay prone on the ground, while a sika deer knelt gracefully.
Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, both beasts turned to look at the car door, and the change in light caused the two immortals to squint slightly.
"Tiger Power Senior, Deer Power Senior, we've arrived at our destination~" The girl's slightly cheerful voice echoed in the carriage.
As she spoke, the carriage doors were pushed open to both sides, and the girl made way for the two immortals to get off.
The tiger and the deer slowly rose, strode with powerful and elegant steps to the outside of the vehicle, stood beside it, looked towards the village not far away, located the vegetable patch, and then set off...
Beside a vegetable patch, Huli and Luli gently inhaled, the fresh scent of vegetables wafting into their nostrils.
“It’s just ordinary vegetables,” the tiger uttered in a deep voice.
“Other fields…” The sika deer raised its head, its gaze sweeping over the other vegetable plots, “…are also just ordinary vegetables.”
"Hmm." The tiger nodded slightly, raised its head, and said, "Let's go see the owner of this place first! Let's find out about the spirit plant, after all, it concerns us..."
A few minutes later, at Xiu Shen Tang.
Ma Xianhong looked at the eight people and two animals at the door and expressed his doubts about their questions: "Spiritual plants? It's not my responsibility to ask you. Go find Fang Rui."
"What are you looking for me for?"
Fang Rui's voice came from outside. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw the young man walking slowly towards them. Deng Fugui and the others made way for him to enter the house.
"What are you talking about?" Fang Rui, standing next to Ma Xianhong, asked Deng Fugui and the others.
“They’re asking about the spiritual plants; you’re in charge of all those things,” Ma Xianhong replied.
"Spirit plants!" Fang Rui exclaimed in realization. "We just planted them in the ground. Shall we go take a look?"
The tiger and the deer were stunned upon hearing this.
Just planted... when can we eat it?
What happened to the promise of free meals?!
I've been fighting with other immortals for so long, not just to look at plums and quench my thirst!
Both the tiger and the deer expressed that they had something to say, but when they saw that the speaker was Fang Rui, the memory of being beaten before resurfaced, and their anger at being teased immediately subsided. Following their instincts, they said, "You said that if we come here to work, we can eat our fill of spiritual plants three times a day!"
My inner instinct is... the instinct of a foodie!
"Don't worry, we do have spiritual plants, but there aren't many kinds," Fang Rui reassured the two immortals.
Bean sprouts, bok choy, garlic sprouts... there are three kinds in total.
As for other vegetables... they haven't sprouted yet, and it will be at least a month before they can be eaten.
"It doesn't matter if there aren't many kinds of food, as long as there's something to eat," the tiger and the deer said pragmatically.
Deng Fugui and the others nearby covered their faces with their hands, sensing that something was amiss!
Wow, a celestial being! A beast hundreds of years old! How could it be bought off with just one meal?
Although the food was extraordinary, but...
Hu Li and Lu Li, unaware of what Deng Fugui and the others were thinking, breathed a sigh of relief. They had come specifically for this treatment; they couldn't do without it!
"You must be tired from your journey, go and have a meal first!"
Upon hearing this, the tiger and the deer nodded hurriedly and urged Deng Fugui and the others to lead the way.
Fang Rui stayed at the Xiu Shen Tang to discuss something with Ma Xian Hong.
"Regarding the spiritual plants, to make them grow quickly, they need to be provided with abundant nutrients. Do you have a way to achieve this?"
Ma Xianhong's expression was very serious. He said solemnly, "I'm just an ordinary weapon refiner. How would I know what you're talking about?"
