Carrying the identifier from the interstellar to the world of immortal cultivation

"So now Senior Brother Wang is asking Senior Brother Tan for help?" Sui An asked following her words.

"That's right." Fan Qiongzhi smiled gloatingly. "Senior Brother Tan is the most stingy and truly poor. He wouldn't be willing to waste a five-spiritual-stone-worth Qi Control Talisman to help Senior Brother Wang practice his sword control skills. Besides, Senior Brother Wang is a man who always has two, and three..."

Perhaps she felt it was inappropriate to discuss fellow disciples in front of Sui'an, who had not yet joined the sect, so Fan Qiongzhi paused awkwardly in the middle of her speech.

Sui An pointed to a cloud bridge connecting two mountains ahead and asked, "Do we need to cross this bridge?"

"Well, it used to be the Deacon's Hall. The entire main peak belonged to the Deacon's Hall. That's where the Golden Spirit Sect's spiritual energy is most concentrated. If it weren't for the numerous and complex affairs of the Deacon's Hall and the low salary, I would have tried it when they were recruiting at the beginning of this year. But now it seems that I'd rather not go to the Deacon's Hall. More than half of the year has passed, and I now only earn as much as the handymen in the Deacon's Hall, not even as much as a junior deacon."

As Fan Qiongzhi spoke, she looked a little depressed. Sui An didn't know how to comfort her, because when it came to making money, she didn't seem to have more experience or advantages than Fan Qiongzhi. During the twenty-two years on Wuxing, she had been steadily poor and had never even had a moment of wealth.

Just as Sui An was thinking about whether he should use his own experience to inspire this future fellow disciple, he realized that poor people always feel better when they see people who are poorer than themselves.

But soon, Sui An no longer had to hesitate about this. While they were talking, the two had already crossed the cloud bridge and arrived at another mountain. As soon as they stepped into the mountain, Fan Qiongzhi became busy. This could be said to be the place with the most people Sui An had seen since he woke up in the wooden house halfway up the mountain.

The monks coming and going wore robes of similar styles, but their colors varied, including light blue, blue-gray, gray-black, and blue-ink.

Obviously, Fan Qiongzhi was very popular in the sect. From Xiayun Bridge to the reception room at the outermost part of the Deacon Hall, there were probably nearly twenty people who greeted her. Some called her senior sister and some called her junior sister, but no one called her nephew.

"Junior Sister Fan, you've arrived just in time. We've just received a commission from the Qi family in Wangzhou. They're primarily building a villa for their fourth son, Qi Shengjin, at Taoye Manor, just outside Wangzhou City. While the villa isn't large, they require a seventh-order dual attack and defense formation. All materials will be provided by the Qi family, and we only need to provide cultivators. Do you count the commission as part of the package?"

As soon as Fan Qiongzhi and Sui An walked into the reception room, a female cultivator in a light blue Taoist robe from the Deacon Hall came up to them with a smile. Without waiting for Fan Qiongzhi to explain her purpose, she started talking incessantly.

Fan Qiongzhi frowned at her gesture and asked, "Ten thousand spirit stones? It's a lot, but what he needs is a seventh-level attack and defense double formation. My master is in seclusion, and there are only two Jindan cultivators, Senior Brother Lan Jin and Senior Brother Sansi. Senior Brother Lan Jin also has to worry about and manage the daily affairs of the sect. How can he have the time to go to Taoye Manor to set up the formation? Then we have to go outside to find a Jindan cultivator who is proficient in formations. Ten thousand spirit stones..."

If you find a Jindan cultivator who is good at formations and give him all 10,000 spirit stones, he may not be willing to do so. After all, not all Jindan cultivators have a poor sect to support.

"Oh, Senior Sister Fan, what are you thinking? Such a high request, and only 10,000 spirit stones for it. How could our Deacon Hall accept such a loss-making deal?"

The young female cultivator in a light green Taoist robe waved her hands exaggeratedly, and then said quite proudly: "This one is one palm, and the Qi family is offering 50,000 spirit stones."

Hearing the 50,000 spirit stones, Fan Qiongzhi was surprised at first, then pretended to be calm and said, "It's not like you haven't taken on those kinds of losing deals before, but this one is not bad."

"So, Senior Sister Fan, are you going? I'll write your name down." The female deacon said as she took out a pen and was about to write something on the jade slip at hand.

"Hey, wait a minute, I won't go for now. I... I have something to do recently." Although she was reluctant to part with the spirit stones, Fan Qiongzhi still refused with difficulty.

"Is it because the star grass in Weirui Valley hasn't been harvested yet?"

"No, I have something to do anyway, so don't ask me. By the way, I came to see you today because Senior Brother Lan Jin asked me to bring Sister Sui here to complete the procedures for joining the sect. Sister Sui, this is Junior Sister Wu, full name Wu Xianqing, a junior deacon in the Deacon Hall."

Wu Xianqing nodded towards Sui An and asked her, "Have you taken a spiritual root test?"

"Sister Sui has spiritual roots, but the properties and qualifications of the spiritual roots are not yet known, so she still needs to go to the spiritual testing platform." It was Fan Qiongzhi who answered her.

The spirit-testing platform is a large, disc-shaped jade-like surface. "Just stand on it."

Sui'an was still a little nervous. Although Fan Qiongzhi had said that she had spiritual roots, it was obvious that the attributes and qualifications of the spiritual roots would have a great impact on future cultivation. Since she had come to this world where cultivation could be carried out, Sui'an naturally hoped that her spiritual roots would be better, so that at least the future path would be smoother.

"There are three spiritual roots: gold, wood, and fire. Wood spiritual roots have the highest proportion and are the purest. I can specialize in wood-related magic in the future! That's great."

"It's quite good, Sister Sui, no, I should call you Senior Sister Sui now. Senior Sister, when you successfully draw Qi into your body and cultivate to the middle stage of Qi Refining, you can come to the Deacon Hall to receive tasks. Your Wood Spiritual Root is an advantageous spiritual root, so you can take on more tasks such as planting and building spirits in the future."

Fan Qiongzhi followed up with this, and Sui An felt that there seemed to be a hint of comfort in her tone, but it was only slight. From the tone of the two of them, she guessed that her aptitude of three spiritual roots should not be said to be good, nor bad, but should be considered average.

Fan Qiongzhi and Wu Xianqing's spiritual roots should be better than his, but they are not among the top ones.

"This is the Golden Spirit Token, the token of our Golden Spirit Sect. After Senior Sister cultivates, she can send a wisp of her spiritual consciousness into the Golden Spirit Token. This will allow her to establish a connection with the sect's Hidden Consciousness Jade Slip. If you unfortunately perish in the future, as long as you are within a thousand miles, the chapter on the Hidden Consciousness Jade Slip that records you will immediately self-ignite. Once the sect learns of this, they will do their best to find the murderer and avenge you."

Wu Xianqing handed Sui An a dark green wooden plaque with three big characters "Golden Spirit Order" written on it, and then said these words.

Sui An's face froze after hearing this. He tried to hold back, but couldn't help asking, "In the past three years, how many pages of the Hidden Consciousness Jade Slips have self-ignited? What's the probability? What was the cultivation level of the fallen fellow disciples? Is there a difference in distribution between male and female cultivators?"

Her words successfully froze Wu Xianqing's expression.

Sui An naturally did not get an accurate answer. Wu Xianqing called another disciple from the Deacon Hall, who quickly and accurately helped her with the remaining procedures. Then, he used the excuse of being busy to send her and Fan Qiongzhi out of the Deacon Hall together.

"Hahaha!"

As soon as they left the Deacon Hall, Fan Qiongzhi couldn't help but burst out laughing. Meeting Sui An's slightly surprised look, she tried to hold back her laughter, finally suppressing it as she explained, "Junior Sister Wu... every time a new member comes to complete the sect initiation procedures, she always says this. Senior Brother Yu even reminded her not to start by talking about life or death, as no one likes to hear that. But she said that since we've issued the sect token, we have to explain the function of the Golden Spirit Token. I didn't expect to meet you today. Those questions you asked, maybe she'll really have to keep track of them when she gets back."

Sui An wanted to say that she was just asking casually. This was a conditioned reflex she developed when she was a corporate slave in her previous world.

Perhaps worried that Sui An would ask some unanswerable questions, and in order to let her leave as soon as possible, Deacon Wu did not refuse the residence she chose and directly allocated the house to her.

Of course, Sui'an is still a mortal now, with ordinary qualifications. In the Jinling Sect, apart from Fan Qiongzhi, the head disciple who is her savior, she has no other backers, so she cannot live in a courtyard alone. Instead, she lives in a courtyard with five other Qi-refining cultivators. Fortunately, there are six rooms in a courtyard, one for each person, so they don't have to share a room.

For Yu Sui'an, this was already quite satisfying. After all, she lived in a four-person dormitory when she was in college, and after graduating from college, she also shared a house with other roommates. Although it was a separate room, there was no spacious courtyard.

The layout of the room was simple, with a wooden bed, wooden table, wooden chairs and a futon. Compared to Fan Qiongzhi's room, there were fewer wood carvings and lustrous balls. Of course, even though Sui An didn't know much about this world yet, he could still see that the layout of the wooden bed and wooden table here was simple, but it was full of elegance and grace, while here it was just simple.

Sui'an didn't care about this.

Everything has just begun, and the future is still unknown. Back in the interstellar era, as an orphan, she overcame all obstacles and completed the goals she set for herself. Her life was passionate and wonderful. Therefore, Sui An was never afraid of hard work, and never worried that the efforts would be in vain. What the result would be was never something she should consider when working hard.
