Infiltrating the world of cultivation
Chapter 143 The Gently Shaking Sandbag (3000 words to go, I'll correct typos after 2 AM)
Biyao Peak is where the sect affairs office is in charge, and many missions are issued here.
Inside the Religious Affairs Office, you can accept or issue tasks.
Receiving a task does not require going to the Clan Affairs Office; otherwise, the entire Clan Affairs Office system might be paralyzed.
Within the Qinghui Sword Sect, all that is needed to receive a mission is a disciple's identity token.
This token not only allows for video calls but also has Taobao functionality. For the first time, Wang Chao felt that the technology in this cultivation world was truly advanced.
However, there is no courier service here. If you need to deliver items after completing your task, you still need to report to the Bureau of Religious Affairs.
Wang Chao flipped through the list, looking for tasks suitable for the sixth stage of Qi Refining. After a while, Wang Chao frowned slightly. All the suitable tasks had already been snatched up by others.
With so many disciples, there will always be some who will be staring at the screen and grinding for tasks.
The remaining tasks are polarized: one is to cultivate spiritual herbs, but the amount of spirit stones earned per month is pitifully small.
He could either go and hunt spirit beasts at the ninth stage of Qi Refining, but with his small physique, he'd just be throwing his life away.
He knew all too well how dangerous it was outside, having traveled all the way from the Tang Empire; the two holy sons of the Northern Region Sword Sect had died so suddenly.
For a novice at the sixth stage of Qi Refining to survive and travel back in time is already incredibly lucky.
Wang Chao looked around for a long time but couldn't find anything suitable. He realized that making money wasn't easy. Back when he was at the Nanshan Spirit Mine, he had thousands of spirit stones in his hands.
But now, he's so pitiful that he's worried about a few dozen spirit stones. If he had known that spirit stones were so valuable outside, he should have made a fortune back in the Nanshan spirit mine.
Swish!
A new task appeared at the top of the task list. Wang Chao glanced at it quickly and looked at the reward.
One hundred spirit stones in ten days!
Swish!
Without any hesitation, Wang Chao started clicking rapidly on the task. Only during the Chinese New Year when grabbing red envelopes could such a speed be matched.
The quest token shows that the dynasty has accepted the quest.
"Wow! Who's so fast!"
"To snag that mission, I even practiced a special technique to increase my hand speed. Who on earth is that person?!"
"I hadn't even finished reading the quest before that person snatched it away. What kind of godlike speed is that?"
In an instant, voices of resentment rose from all the peaks of the Qinghui Sword Sect. Everyone was somewhat frustrated by the plunderer whose hand speed was beyond comprehension.
If in the future, when they compete for missions, they encounter opponents with insanely fast hand speeds, how will they survive in the hand speed competition?
Those who missed out all clicked on the task, eager to see what kind of task the lucky person who won 100 spirit stones for ten days had received.
After reading the contents of the mission, Wang Chao's expression became extremely interesting.
This task is neither particularly difficult nor easy, but there are likely a series of related factors involved.
This is a sparring assignment, requiring the sparring partner to have strong resilience to attacks, so that the person issuing the assignment can practice their spells.
For serving as a human target for ten days, one would receive a reward of one hundred spirit stones.
Being a human target? Wang Chao almost cursed. Is this a job for a human being? To be a human target for others to practice their spells—the person who issued the quest must have a really big heart.
Wang Chao's expression turned somewhat grim. He had already accepted the mission, and there was no turning back.
Completing tasks will increase your sect contribution points, but failing to complete them will deduct them.
The dynasty currently has no contribution points. If they were to be deducted, it would become a negative number, and the dynasty would likely become a laughing stock in the entire Qinghui Sword Sect.
The sect's grand ceremony is just around the corner, and we need to promote ourselves and gain more attention, but we can't do it this way.
Being attacked by magic for ten days is something no one can withstand.
"Haha! Serves you right for being quick, you managed to grab the iron plate, didn't you?"
"This is most likely someone with slow hands trying to mess with someone with fast hands. Haha, luckily I slipped, otherwise I would probably be the one getting beaten up!"
"What does it mean to be a slow bird that has to start flying early? It seems that guy was destined for this calamity!"
Many people, upon seeing the task details, secretly rejoiced that they hadn't managed to snag one. Had they, they probably wouldn't have been able to get out of bed for at least ten days or two weeks.
Those hundred spirit stones probably wouldn't even be enough to buy healing pills.
The dynasty and those watching looked down, wanting to see who had issued this task.
The person who came up with this task is quite talented.
"Sway gently?"
When Wang Chao saw the name, he was taken aback. He felt like he had heard the name somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where he heard it for a moment.
"Holy crap! What's going on? It's actually Senior Sister Qingyao?"
"Am I seeing things? Isn't that Senior Sister Qingyao from Lantian Peak?"
"Who else could it be? It's Qingyao, one of the Seven Holy Sons! The number one beauty of the Qinghui Sword Sect!"
"No way, why would she need a human punching bag? Does she want to vent her frustrations?"
"Even if it's just to vent, I'd be willing! This kid really hit the jackpot!"
Those disciples who didn't manage to get a mission began to lament, clearly having missed such a good opportunity.
They were initially mocking the dynasty, believing that it had been used as a human punching bag and suffered a great loss.
But now it seems that the dynasty has the opportunity to get close to the most beautiful woman in the Qinghui Sword Sect, which is clearly a great bargain.
Although the dynasty didn't know who this Qingyao was, since there was no way to change it, they could only go and see for themselves, hoping that he wouldn't be used to practice his fireball technique.
The address given was just Lantian Peak, without specifying the exact location. What is he supposed to do with that?
Upon arriving at Lantian Peak, Wang Chao looked at this mountain, which was even higher than Biyao Peak, and was somewhat speechless. Where was he supposed to find such a huge mountain?
"Fellow Daoist in front, I have a question for you. Do you know where Qingyao lives?"
Wang Chao instinctively wanted to call out to his classmates, but then realized it was inappropriate and forcibly held back.
"Oh? You don't know where Qingyao lives?"
The figure in front of the dynasty turned around, and the dynasty was stunned. It was a woman of utmost purity, with a smile like a spring peach, her hair piled high like emerald clouds, her lips like cherry blossoms, and her teeth like pomegranate seeds, exuding fragrance.
Her charming smile and beautiful eyes possess a beauty that differs from Nangong Qingyu's quirky and mischievous nature, exuding a fresh and refined elegance.
Nangong Qingyu? Wang Chao was slightly taken aback. Just thinking about how jealous this little girl would be made him shudder.
"Is she very famous? Tell me quickly, I still need to earn spirit stones, don't waste my time."
Wang Chao wanted to get as far away from this woman as possible, fearing he might lose his composure if he stayed even a second longer.
"You're going to earn her spirit stones?"
The elegant and refined woman was somewhat surprised, as if she had heard something unbelievable. Her mouth opened slightly, making her look incredibly cute.
"Is there a problem? Ten days as a punching bag, one hundred spirit stones. This guy is a lunatic. He has so many spirit stones that he doesn't know what to do with them. He wants to use others as punching bags."
"Once I'm done with this mission, I'll beat the crap out of him!"
Thinking about his impending ten-day beating, Wang Chao couldn't feel happy at all.
"It's alright, I happen to be going that way, I'll take you there."
The woman, with her refined and elegant demeanor and a playful smile, made Wang Chao feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Thank you, senior sister."
Wang Chao discovered that he couldn't see through the other party's cultivation level, which meant that the other party's cultivation level was higher than his.
In a place like the Qinghui Sword Sect, whoever has the highest cultivation level is considered the senior. Even an old man in his seventies or eighties, if his cultivation level is lower than yours, still has to call you senior brother.
As the dynasty rose along with this elegant and refined woman, the more they went, the uglier the dynasty's expression became.
He knew that the people living up there would only get higher and higher in cultivation. At that height, if they were to fight him, it would really be like hitting a punching bag.
Just as they were nearing the summit, the ethereal woman finally stopped.
Then, Wang Chao saw the woman take out an identity token and slowly open a formation. Wang Chao felt that something was wrong.
"Senior sister, I'm looking for someone named Qingyao. Why did you bring me here? I'm not that kind of person, so don't do anything rash."
Although this senior sister is very beautiful, the dynasty will not submit. If he were single, he would not mind having a romantic encounter, but since he already has Nangong Qingyu, he must restrain his words and actions.
"I'm the gentle rocker you're going to beat the shit out of you."
Qingyao walked straight in, leaving Wang Chao dumbfounded. This damn soap slippery thing is so tricky!
"It's over, it's over!"
Wang Chao followed inside with a bitter smile. How did his good days end? They were ruined by his own actions.
"Wait here for me, I'll be right out."
She turned and went into the attic. Wang Chao's mind immediately started racing. Was she going to prepare props? Was she going to play the Ten Great Tortures of the Qing Dynasty?
"Buzz!"
Wang Chao felt the vibration of the identity token, looked down, and saw that it was Nangong Qingyu.
"What are you doing, looking so gloomy?"
Wang Chao knew that when a girl asked you what you were doing, she wasn't really asking what you were doing; rather, she was expressing how much she missed you.
But the dynasty can't laugh at all now.
"Little wife, do you know someone named Qingyao in Lantian Peak? I'm going to get beaten up in her residence for ten days straight!"
The dynasty immediately looked miserable; it was no longer playable.
"Don't worry, tell me what happened first? I'll help you solve it!"
There wasn't a hint of nervousness on Nangong Qingyu's face, leading Wang Chao to even suspect that Nangong Qingyu had been switched at birth.
"I accepted a task on my identity token. The task said that I had to be a punching bag for ten days and practice with others."
Then, on my way to Lantian Peak, I cursed at that person named Qingyao and threatened to beat her shit out.
Now I feel like, wait a minute, I might get my shit kicked in!
The dynasty felt like it wanted to cry but had no tears.
"It's okay, hang in there, I'll hang up now."
Wang Chao was somewhat taken aback when he saw Nangong Qingyu hang up so decisively. What was going on? This little girl wasn't jealous at all?
Before long, Qingyao came out of her residence, dressed in a smart and capable outfit.
"I've recently mastered a physical technique that I need to test in real combat. So, I won't bully you; neither of us will use spiritual power. If you can defeat me, I'll give you a thousand spirit stones!"
Upon hearing Qingyao's words, Wang Chao was slightly taken aback. Was there really such a good thing?
Without his own experience, he still possesses the combat strength of a Qi Refining Stage 6 cultivator. However, without spiritual power, relying solely on physical strength, he is at most at the level of an Innate Martial Artist.
"it is good!"
The dynasty was naturally very happy about the good deal of a thousand spirit stones.
"call out!"
Physical arts are spells that are performed without using spiritual power, relying solely on the physical body.
However, unless one is a body cultivator, this kind of close combat skill is basically useless, and it's unclear why Qingyao is learning it.
call out!
With a slight sway, he appeared in front of the dynasty, then turned around in mid-air and kicked out with his bare legs.
"Oh!"
As expected, Qingyao was kicked away by Wang Chao. What kind of martial arts is that? It's not even as good as Wing Chun.
"To be airborne is a cardinal sin in military strategy!"
Wang Chao was speechless. This level of skill could be considered physical martial arts?
"You cheated! Why did you use spiritual power?"
He shakily got up from the ground, covered in dust, and released his aura, revealing himself to be at the eleventh stage of Qi Refining!
"I didn't use spiritual power. I'm a body cultivator. Even without using spiritual power, I can still rival a Qi Refining Stage 6 cultivator!"
Seeing that the man was showing signs of growing up, Wang Chao quickly explained.
"Then why didn't you say so before?"
He subtly shook his head, the anger in his eyes showing a tendency to intensify.
"You didn't even ask."
The dynasty is also innocent. It was so happy to kick it out just now, but now, its good days are probably over.
"Don't you know what others are saying if I don't ask you?"
She gently shook her head and continued to press for answers. The previous fresh and elegant feeling had completely vanished. Wang Chao sighed inwardly. Women are all unreasonable creatures.
"Oh!"
"what!"
"Oh!"
For the next ten days, Wang Chao spent his time screaming in agony. Qing Yao directly channeled his spiritual power, using Wang Chao as a punching bag. This was not sparring at all; it was a one-sided massacre.
It was only after cultivating the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique that Wang Chao's body had a strong ability to recover; otherwise, someone at the sixth stage of Qi Refining would probably have been crippled by now.
However, Biyao Peak was in charge of the alchemy room, and there were quite a few pills to restore spiritual power. Although the dynasty was badly beaten, its body did not suffer any lasting illness.
Wang Chao felt that at the beginning, Qingyao was indeed practicing that physical technique, and because it was combined with spiritual power, the power of this physical technique was revealed.
Every part of the body is a weapon of attack. Wang Chao even asked about the name of this physical technique, "Bone Entanglement".
It is said that this was something a Nascent Soul elder in the sect comprehended after fighting a dragon for seven days.
At close range, no weapon is as powerful as fists and feet.
Although the dynasty did not agree with this view, it was undeniable that the Bone Binding technique was indeed an extremely remarkable physical skill.
