Traveling through the Immortal Cultivation World: I Use Solar Energy to Cultivate

"Next, we should reward people based on their merits.

In the beast tide two months ago, there were about twenty monks who made great contributions.

I've already taken the monster materials I harvested this time to Xihai City for processing. They're basically all from monsters in the early to middle stages of Qi Refining. There's not a single one left from monsters in the late stages of Qi Refining or above."

Hearing what Wang Bin said, Huang Youcai and Chen Jun hurriedly lowered their heads, not even daring to breathe.

During the beast tide that day, the two of them took the most and most valuable materials. After all, among the Qi-refining cultivators present, they had the highest status and were relatively strong.

"Haha, don't be nervous, I don't mean to blame you.

If I were in the situation at that time, I would probably do the same.

I just wanted to tell you that all the materials sold that day only sold for 250,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Each of the twenty Qi-refining cultivators who made contributions on that day would receive a reward of 10,000 low-grade spirit stones.

The remaining 50,000 low-grade spirit stones will be left for the orphans who lost their parents in the beast tide.

As the city lord, I will also take out some spirit stones from my own pocket to raise these children to adulthood."

"The city lord is truly benevolent and righteous!"

Huang Youcai bowed high and praised loudly.

Chen Jun was also deeply moved and bowed emotionally to show his respect.

It was the first time for both of them to hear that a city lord would care about the affairs of these orphans.

There are many small cities like Baiyun City along the entire Monster Mountain Range. They encounter beast tides from time to time, and both sides are bound to suffer casualties.

However, monks generally do not care about the children of mortals unless they are from their own family.

"Youcai, how is the recovery of the outer city going? What's the situation at the orphanage?"

"Reporting to the City Lord, the outer city was rebuilt a month ago, and it is even larger than before.

However, many mortals and Qi-refining cultivators left Baiyun City after the beast tide. They were indeed scared to death that time.

Of course, there are also some new mortals and independent cultivators who have come here. Overall, Baiyun City is still a little quieter than before.

In addition, several members of Baiyun City’s guard team also lost their lives in this beast tide.

The orphanage has been built. There are a total of 180 orphans in it, aged between one and thirteen. We will not accept any older children.

However, the orphanage currently has no management measures and only provides food and shelter for the children. City Lord, what do you think we should do about this..."

Wang Bin pondered for a moment. He knew in his heart that this orphanage was actually a good resource if it could be used properly.

The main reason is that this is a world of cultivating immortals. If it were in ancient times, these 180 orphans would be a huge fortune.

In ancient times, the favorite thing for noble families and clans was to adopt orphans.

They can train these orphans to become their confidants, soldiers, servants, deadpools, maids, spies, etc.

For children who have been trained since childhood, loyalty is definitely a problem, but in the world of cultivating immortals, it is not that useful.

After all, among these 180 orphans, no one is sure if there is any one with spiritual roots. Even if there is, the quality of the spiritual roots is unknown.

Alas, after all, this is a world dominated by monks. No matter how many mortals there are, they are not of much use.

However, I'd better keep him for now. After all, I'm also a human being and I've received education. I still have to remember the fine tradition of respecting the elderly and loving the young.

Moreover, it doesn’t cost many spirit stones to raise these orphans.

Doing so can also greatly enhance one's reputation and prestige. As for reputation, well, it seems to be of no use at ordinary times and cannot increase combat effectiveness.

However, as long as you persist in doing good deeds, you may get unexpected rewards one day.

Of course, he didn't have too much hope for this, but he would feel happier if he could do more good deeds within his ability.

"If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world" has always been his motto.

The main reason was that the cost of maintaining the orphanage was nothing to him. One low-grade spirit stone could be exchanged for ten taels of gold. Ten taels of gold were enough for the children in the orphanage to eat meat for a day. So what was one low-grade spirit stone?

It seems that other monks are used to being superior. Although they do not intend to hurt mortals, they still look down on mortals in their bones. No monk cares about the life or death of mortals.

"Well, leave the orphanage's affairs to me. I will arrange for someone to manage it well."

Wang Bin turned his gaze towards Chen Jun and saw that he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Captain Chen, if you have any questions, just tell me. We have worked together for so many years, and as long as I can help, it is not a big problem. "

When Chen Jun heard Wang Bin say this, he no longer hesitated and immediately bowed and said:

“I plan to return to the sect to break through the foundation-building scenic area.

Over the past few decades, I have accumulated contribution points from completing sect missions, plus the care you, Lord City Lord, have given me over the years.

Especially the gains from this beast tide are enough for me to make a sprint to the foundation-building stage.

I am not young anymore, I hope the city lord will allow me to go back."

"Of course there's no problem with that. You're also an outer disciple of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance.

If you succeed in building your foundation this time, how do you plan to develop in the future?"

"If I succeed in building my foundation, I plan to take part in the sect's inner disciple assessment. I have always hoped to join the Law Enforcement Hall."

Chen Jun bowed again, a rare expression of longing appearing on his face.

After hearing his words, Wang Bin sighed inwardly. This was also one of the reasons why he wanted to develop his family.

I am so good to them, but everyone has their own ideas and pursuits.

However, judging from Chen Jun's current situation, if he directly attempts to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage, the probability of his success is not very high.

His spiritual power has only reached the ninth level of Qi Refining. His physical body and spiritual consciousness have not yet been cultivated to perfection, so the possibility of failure in breaking through is very high.

However, this also depends on luck. There is still a 10% to 20% chance of success.

After all, his predecessor Qingmu also succeeded in building his foundation with just one foundation-building pill.

No matter what, Chen Jun has been following me for so many years, and I still hope that he can successfully build his foundation.

After all, more friends mean more paths. If he does well, it will never be bad for me. Maybe he can even help me in the future.

"Then I wish you success in building your foundation! We have worked together for so many years, and the cooperation has always been quite pleasant.

I'll give you an opportunity. This is a piece of small enlightenment tea and a drop of spiritual liquid. These two things should be able to help you build your foundation."

Wang Bin took out a piece of small Wudao tea leaves and a drop of spiritual liquid and threw them directly to Chen Jun.

Chen Jun caught it with his spiritual power with a look of surprise on his face, then quickly took out the jade bottle and put everything away.

"Thank you so much for your kindness, sir. Thank you so much for your kindness, sir. I am so grateful!"

“Hmm! This small enlightenment tea is a third-level spiritual tea that can help cultivators break through small realms. The spiritual liquid has even more functions.

"You can leave after handing over the patrol work to Youcai. Oh! And you will also get your 10,000 low-grade spirit stones."

Wang Bin took out one hundred medium-grade spirit stones from his storage bag and handed them to Chen Jun.

After Chen Jun thanked him again, he bowed and said goodbye.

He had never heard of the Small Enlightenment Tea before, but he knew that the third-level spiritual tea was not something that a Qi-refining cultivator like him could access.

As for the spiritual liquid, he had only heard of it, but he didn't expect the city lord to be so generous.

He guessed that this was probably because the city lord had connections with the Chu family.

Otherwise, the city lord is usually even more stingy than him, how could he be so generous.

Wang Bin looked at Chen Jun who was leaving, his lips moved slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything else.

He originally wanted to remind Chen Jun to stay in the ninth level of Qi Refining for a few more years before making a concerted effort to reach the Foundation Establishment stage.

But after hesitating for a moment, he gave up the idea.

Looking at Chen Jun's current state, he only wants to build his foundation as soon as possible and may not listen to his advice.

Maybe if he fails to break through, he will blame himself.
