Chapter 79

"师姐，你如果实在不放心。我这就亲自动手，让他死得神不知鬼不——"

Li Wujie's words suddenly trailed off.

A sudden chill enveloped the air, and Li Wujie looked up to see Long Bingyan's gaze, cold as a thousand-year-old ice, causing him to shiver involuntarily.

"In the Shenshao Mountain, killing a newly passed probationary disciple? Are you crazy, or am I crazy? The elders have never forbidden the disciples from competing, comparing, and quarreling. Not only do they not forbid it, but they also strongly encourage it. However, openly assassinating other disciples is a different matter. It is something all the elders cannot tolerate and deeply detest. It would shake the foundation of the sect."

Long Bingyan looked at Li Wujie coldly:

"Lin Xi is just a small ant, never a threat, just a nuisance. If violence is needed, would I need you to openly kill him? If the other divine consorts who are watching me find out about this, do you think they would give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to deal with me?"

"Li Wujie!—"

Long Bingyan stood up:

"I let you follow me, not to cause me trouble. Since Lin Xi has become a probationary disciple, as long as he remains on Shenshao Mountain, we cannot kill him. However, although we cannot kill him, it doesn't mean we can't deal with him. Pass my message to the disciples in the Task Hall, the Fude Hall, the Ludede Hall, and the Danding Hall, and tell them to 'take good care' of Lin Xi."

When she said "take good care," Long Bingyan emphasized the words, her beautiful face flashing with a ruthless expression.

Li Wujie was taken aback, then suddenly understood:

"Rest assured, Sister. I know what to do! Hehe, I will definitely 'take good care' of that boy."

"Wujie, don't disappoint me!—I am very busy and don't want to be bothered by such trivial matters."

Long Bingyan glanced at Li Wujie:

"Recently, the pressure from other divine consorts has increased. I must deal with them quickly and make them learn to behave. Next time, when there is news about Lin Xi, I don't want to hear any unexpected news."

"Rest assured, Sister. I underestimated that boy before. This time, I will handle it personally. I will not give Lin Xi any chance to turn the tide."

Li Wujie said earnestly.

"Good. That's the best."

Long Bingyan nodded, her expression softening. She waved her sleeve and immediately walked out. After two steps, she suddenly stopped:

"Isn't Lin Xi only at the tenth level of the Martial Way? If he wants to quickly enter the Qi Refinement stage, he will certainly try to go to the Task Hall to accept sect tasks and find ways to improve in this area."

Li Wujie was shocked, then felt a deep admiration, saying sincerely:

"Sister, you are truly wise. I know what to do."

Long Bingyan nodded, her figure flickering and transforming into a long rainbow, disappearing without a trace.

...

Lin Xi read "The Great World of Immortal Dao" until evening.

"Truly, one moment of enlightenment can resolve a decade of confusion."

Lin Xi held "The Great World of Immortal Dao" and praised it, unable to put it down. Although he had already read this book once, he was still deeply engrossed in it.

The "Great World of Immortal Dao" given to him by Shangguan Yaoxue was much more complete and detailed than the incomplete version he had taken from Chilian Sect.

Many things in the Immortal Dao world, if not for reading "The Great World of Immortal Dao," Lin Xi would still be confused. But now, after reading it, it felt like the fog had cleared, revealing a glimpse of the truth, giving him a sense of clarity.

"Originally, this world has so many dimensions, so many planes, spaces. And there are even gods, devils, and demons!"

Lin Xi marveled.

This is the world he aspired to. Such a rich world, such a rich life and adventure, is what everyone should naturally aspire to!

Only then would it not be a waste of a life!

"Finished reading?"

The voice of Vampire Queen Camilla came from the side.

"Yep."

Lin Xi stood up.

"Are you going out?"

Camilla was surprised.

"Yep. To the Fude Hall!"

Lin Xi said.

"The Great World of Immortal Dao" has several versions, and Lin Xi obtained the Shenshao Sect version. As a book introducing the Immortal Dao world, it naturally includes an introduction to Shenshao Sect.

As a disciple of Shenshao Sect, there are several places to remember.

One is the Ludede Hall, which records the completion of sect tasks and the acquisition of merit points, the black-green hall Lin Xi has already visited; the second is the Fude Hall, where sect rewards are exchanged, the place all disciples visit most often; the third is the Danding Hall, the source of daily elixirs for all sect disciples; and the last is the Task Hall, where sect tasks are accepted.

Lin Xi had already visited the Ludede Hall, the black-green hall. The Danding Hall is a privilege only for official sect disciples, not much related to probationary disciples like Lin Xi. Only the Fude Hall and the Task Hall had not been visited.

After some thought, Lin Xi decided to visit the Fude Hall first. He hadn't forgotten that his Ludede token still had 36 merit points.

"I wonder what I can exchange for killing 36 vampire women."

Lin Xi thought and walked out of the room.

...

The entire Shenshao Mountain is composed of countless large and small peaks.

The Fude Hall is located in the southwest direction, on the second outer layer. The entire Shenshao Sect has four Fude Halls, located in the east, southwest, northwest, and northeast.

Lin Xi belongs to the jurisdiction of the southwest Fude Hall.

"Senior Brother, I am a new disciple and would like to check the sect rewards available for exchange at the Fude Hall."

Lin Xi said, handing over his Ludede token.

"You are a probationary disciple!"

The Fude disciple guarding the hall was very kind, recognizing Lin Xi's identity with a glance at his attire:

"Great! You just passed the sect examination and already have 36 merit points. Among this year's new disciples, you are the best. The previous highest merit points were 28, belonging to a prince of the Holy Tree Dynasty, who had royal support and astonishing strength. I didn't expect you to surpass him!"

A hint of surprise flashed in the Fude disciple's eyes. As a disciple in charge of the Fude Hall, he had some authority to view other disciples' information. He could see that this probationary disciple had no significant background, even weaker than many disciples who participated in the Immortal Dao examination.

To achieve such high merit points with such a background, it was truly astonishing.

"Prince of the Holy Tree Dynasty?"

Lin Xi's eyes flashed, and a few figures vaguely appeared in his mind, finally settling on one:

"It seems there were quite a few experts in this Immortal Dao examination."

Lin Xi vaguely remembered seeing a young man in a golden dragon robe before coming up the mountain, accompanied by several Qi Refinement experts, who seemed to have a significant background.

"The sect rewards are vast and cannot be displayed all at once. Everything is based on merit points. If your merit points are not high, it's useless to see them. According to your merit points, you can only view these rewards."

The Fude disciple said, waving his sleeve, and Lin Xi's Ludede token immediately flew into a slot on the Fude Hall. A large light screen immediately appeared in front of the Fude Hall.

Lin Xi had read "The Great World of Immortal Dao" and knew that the light screen was formed by an array and true qi. On the screen, rows of text appeared, listing the various sect rewards that Lin Xi could view based on his current merit points.

"Xianhuan Pill, 100 merit points..."

Lin Xi carefully examined and found that the sect rewards he could view were all below 100 merit points. He immediately understood that this was the upper limit he could currently view.

Lin Xi had only 36 merit points in total, so the sect rewards that required 50, 60, or 70 merit points were automatically filtered out. They were not something he could obtain now.

Lin Xi's gaze swept over and finally settled on the last few lines of text:

"Qiti Pill, 4 merit points; Niumo Pill, 8 merit points; 'The Great World of Immortal Dao,' 10 merit points; Buqi Pill, 28 merit points; Zengqi Pill, 42 merit points!..."

Lin Xi drew a sharp breath. He originally thought that killing 36 vampire women, each equivalent to the tenth level of the Martial Way, would allow him to exchange for quite a few things.

Unexpectedly, the cheapest item here required 4 merit points, equivalent to 4 vampire women. However, the Qiti Pill was useless to Lin Xi, only useful for martial artists at the ninth level of the Dragon Force realm.

The Niumo Pill increased strength, suitable for martial artists who had just entered the tenth level of the Thundering Power realm. Lin Xi didn't lack strength but lacked true qi.

The only items useful to Lin Xi were the Buqi Pill and the Zengqi Pill.

Lin Xi didn't expect that the box of 12 Zengqi Pills he obtained from the black-robed man at the Qi Refinement stage would be so expensive, requiring 42 merit points.

The total merit points in Lin Xi's Ludede token were not enough to buy even one Zengqi Pill.

The only item he could afford was one Buqi Pill, but it was clear that the effect of the Buqi Pill was significantly weaker than the Zengqi Pill.

"The things in the Immortal Dao world are too expensive!"

Lin Xi drew a sharp breath.

He felt like a farmer with green bills, excitedly rushing into the city to make a big move, only to find that the money in his pocket was only enough to buy a few buns!

The only thing that surprised him was that "The Great World of Immortal Dao" was also available for exchange, worth 10 merit points.

The Fude disciple at the hall entrance smiled, seemingly aware of Lin Xi's predicament:

"Junior Brother, most people who come here can only exchange a few Niumo Pills. But you are different."

The Fude disciple finished speaking and emitted a burst of true qi, pressing it against the copper wall. The light screen in front of Lin Xi immediately changed:

"... Zengqi Pill, 12 merit points!"

"Ah!"

Lin Xi's heart was greatly shaken, his pupils contracting sharply.
