Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation: My system is amazing
Chapter 10: Initial Results, Secret Covetations
Xiao Bei flipped through the densely packed text on the system interface, a confident smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
With the "Encyclopedia of Advanced Herbal Cultivation" in hand, the world is mine!
Century-old Ganoderma lucidum and thousand-year-old ginseng are just a matter of time!
He rubbed his hands and prepared to get to work.
Suddenly, Xiao Bei felt a chill on his back, as if someone was watching him secretly.
He turned his head sharply, but saw nothing.
Is it an illusion?
Xiao Bei frowned, and a sense of vigilance arose in his heart.
He looked around. The depths of the medicine garden were quiet. Only the moonlight shone on the spiritual herbs, emitting a faint fluorescent glow.
In the next few days, Xiao Bei always felt that someone was following him secretly, and this feeling became stronger and stronger.
He began to observe his surroundings intentionally or unintentionally, and found that there were indeed some sneaky figures wandering around the medicine garden, especially Senior Brother Zhang, whose eyes were always flickering and full of inquiry.
"It seems that my achievements have been targeted by someone." Xiao Bei thought to himself, but he did not panic. Instead, he came up with a plan.
He deliberately left some incomplete notes in a conspicuous place in the medicine garden, which recorded some seemingly plausible cultivation methods, half true and half false, just like fishing, waiting for the fish to take the bait.
"Hehe, you want to steal my skills? That depends on whether you have the ability." Xiao Bei showed a sly smile at the corner of his mouth, with a gleam of wisdom in his eyes.
He even deliberately left some wrong information in his notes, waiting for those who coveted his achievements to be fooled.
That night, Xiao Bei came to the depths of the medicine garden as usual, pretending to study spiritual herbs.
He quietly observed his surroundings and found a dark shadow approaching him stealthily.
"Here it comes!" Xiao Bei thought to himself. He held his breath and waited quietly...
"Who's there?" Xiao Bei suddenly shouted, and turned around abruptly, only to see a familiar figure...
The black shadow was startled by Xiao Bei's sudden action, and revealed his true face in panic. It was Senior Brother Zhang!
He was holding a stack of papers tightly in his hand, which was the "secret book" that Xiao Bei deliberately left behind.
"Senior Brother Zhang, what are you doing here so late?" Xiao Bei asked in surprise, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
Senior Brother Zhang's face turned pale as he stammered, "I...I...I was just taking a walk..."
"Oh? Just walking around? What are you holding in your hand?" Xiao Bei pressed on, staring sharply at the paper in Senior Brother Zhang's hand.
Senior Brother Zhang was so frightened that his entire body was shaking, and the paper in his hand almost fell to the ground.
"No...nothing..."
Xiao Bei sneered, "Senior Brother Zhang, you're not going to tell me that you're sleepwalking, are you?"
Senior Brother Zhang's forehead was covered in sweat. He knew he had been discovered, so he simply tore off his face and said viciously, "Xiao Bei, mind your own business! This information is mine!"
"Yours? What a joke! I left these materials here on purpose, just waiting for small fry like you to take the bait!" Xiao Bei's tone was cold, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"You...you are playing tricks on me!" Senior Brother Zhang was furious, but he was no match for Xiao Bei at all.
Xiao Bei was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He flashed and instantly appeared in front of Senior Brother Zhang, snatching the information from his hand.
"With your intelligence, you still want to steal my skills? Go back and practice for a few hundred more years!"
Senior Brother Zhang was stunned by Xiao Bei's speed and momentum, and stood there motionless.
Xiao Bei patted his shoulder and taunted him, "Next time you want to steal something, remember to practice your Qinggong skills first, so you don't get caught like a fool. Speaking of which, with your Qinggong skills, even a rabbit can run faster than you, right?"
Xiao Bei walked away, leaving Senior Brother Zhang alone and disheveled in the wind.
After returning to his residence, Xiao Bei opened the system interface, checked the surveillance video, and couldn't help laughing.
"This kid actually thought he had found a treasure. He's so stupid!"
Suddenly, the system prompt sounded: "High-level energy fluctuations detected approaching..."
Xiao Bei's face changed and he muttered to himself: "It seems that bigger trouble is coming..." He walked to the window, looked at the dark night sky in the distance, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"Elder Wang, we are finally meeting..."
Xiao Bei had just settled down and was about to study the "Spiritual Energy Compression Technology" he had exchanged from the system when a burst of pressure came from outside the door, making his chest feel tight.
Oh no, he is not friendly!
The door was kicked open with a bang, and Elder Wang walked in with a gloomy face, followed by Senior Brother Zhang who looked depressed.
"Xiao Bei, you are so brave! How dare you play tricks on my disciple!" Elder Wang's voice was like a loud bell, making Xiao Bei's ears buzz.
Xiao Bei sneered in his heart, but pretended to be terrified on the surface: "Elder Wang, I don't know what to do, please explain."
"Explicitly? Humph! My disciple saw with his own eyes that you were secretly hoarding the rare herbal cultivation manual, and you still refuse to hand it over?"
Xiao Bei spread his hands out with an innocent look on his face: "I am innocent! There is no such thing as a secret manual. I'm afraid Senior Brother Zhang must have seen it wrong."
"Did you see it wrong? Do you think I'm a fool?!" Elder Wang shouted angrily, and a powerful spiritual pressure instantly enveloped the entire room. Xiao Bei felt it was difficult to breathe.
"System, activate the spiritual shield!" Xiao Bei muttered in his heart.
A light blue halo enveloped him, offsetting the pressure from Elder Wang.
Elder Wang was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that this kid had some skills.
But he quickly regained his composure and sneered, "You have some tricks, but do you think you can escape my grasp like this? From today on, you must hand over ten hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum every day, otherwise..."
Xiao Bei cursed the old fox in his heart. It was obvious that he wanted to squeeze him dry!
But his face was full of smiles: "Elder Wang, you are joking. Hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum is extremely precious. How can I, a disciple, have such ability?"
"No ability? Then don't blame me for being rude!" A fierce look flashed in Elder Wang's eyes. He was about to teach Xiao Bei a lesson when a voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Elder Wang, why bother with a menial disciple?"
Pharmacist Chen walked in with a hint of displeasure on his face.
"I have seen Xiao Bei's training method. It is indeed unique and will be of great benefit to the sect."
Elder Wang's face changed. He didn't expect that Pharmacist Chen would speak for Xiao Bei.
He snorted coldly: "Pharmacist Chen, are you sure this kid isn't just playing tricks?"
"Whether it's just a trick or not, we'll know once we try it." Xiao Bei said, taking out a few spiritual herbs from his storage bag and handing them to Pharmacist Chen. "These spiritual herbs are cultivated using my method, and their medicinal effects are several times higher than ordinary spiritual herbs."
Pharmacist Chen carefully examined it and showed surprise on his face: "It is indeed so! Xiao Bei, your method is indeed effective!"
Elder Wang's face turned pale. His conspiracy was exposed in public, making him lose all face.
He glared at Xiao Bei fiercely and walked away.
Xiao Bei looked at Elder Wang's back, a sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth.
This battle has just begun.
Returning to his residence, Xiao Bei suddenly heard a system prompt: "Abnormal information flow detected..." He frowned and muttered to himself: "What's going on?"
Xiao Bei just breathed a sigh of relief when the system gave another warning: "Abnormal information flow detected, suspected malicious spreading of rumors." Xiao Bei's heart skipped a beat. This old fox is still so evil!
As expected, the next day, the whole sect spread the news that Xiao Bei's training method was stolen and plagiarized from some reclusive master.
For a moment, the wind direction suddenly changed, and the disciples who originally admired Xiao Bei began to talk and question.
"I knew it! How could a menial disciple have such a powerful ability? He must have stolen it!"
"You can't judge a person by his appearance. I didn't expect Xiao Bei to be such a person!"
"Oh, what a pity! I thought our sect had produced a genius!"
Xiao Bei listened to these gossips and sneered in his heart.
This Elder Wang is really at his wit's end and can only resort to such despicable tricks.
However, he couldn't just sit there and wait for death; he had to find a way to fight back.
"System, is there any way to prove my innocence?" Xiao Bei asked in his mind.
"Ding! The host can disclose his cultivation method and conduct a live demonstration to prove his strength."
Xiao Bei's eyes lit up. This was a good idea!
He immediately applied to the sect for a public demonstration and was approved.
On the day of the demonstration, the medicine garden was crowded with people, and everyone wanted to see whether Xiao Bei had real skills.
Elder Wang also brought Senior Brother Zhang and others to observe, with a sinister smile on his face.
Xiao Bei stood in front of everyone, calm and composed, not nervous at all.
He first explained his cultivation method and then demonstrated it in public.
The whole process was smooth and seamless, leaving everyone stunned.
After the demonstration, the whole audience fell silent, and everyone was impressed by Xiao Bei's skills.
Even Elder Wang's face turned pale and he couldn't utter a word.
Xiao Bei looked at everyone's shocked expressions and felt secretly happy.
He smiled slightly and said, "Brothers and sisters, do you have any questions now?"
Everyone shook their heads, expressing their conviction.
"In that case, please disperse." Xiao Bei said, turned around and prepared to leave.
At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded: "Wait!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a white-haired old man slowly walking towards them. It was the sect's supreme elder!
Xiao Bei was startled. Why did this old guy suddenly appear?
The Grand Elder walked up to Xiao Bei, looked him up and down, and then slowly said, "Young man, your training method is indeed very good, but..."
He paused, staring at Xiao Bei with a sharp gaze, and said word by word: "Did you really figure this out on your own?"
Xiao Bei's heart sank, and an ominous premonition came over him...
He took a deep breath and was about to speak when the system prompt sounded: "Abnormal space-time fluctuations detected..."
Xiao Bei's face suddenly changed, and he looked up at the sky, only to see a dazzling white light falling from the sky and heading straight towards him!
"what happened?!"
