After leaving the Breeze Hall with 2,700 Spirit Mist Grass, Li Fan took another stroll around, hoping to find more hidden small loan organizations.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have such luck.
Li Fan returned to the Ten Thousand Profound Mirror and began to plan in secret.
“The price of Spirit Mist Grass will soon briefly rise to 25 contribution points. I need to sell all of this before then.”
“After the discovery of the wood-attribute cave world spreads, the price will plummet. It will not stabilize until it reaches 6 contribution points.” “At that time, I’ll buy another 3,510 plants to give back to the Breeze Hall.”
“With this operation, I can earn around forty thousand contribution points.”
“Tsk, tsk, this is so little.”
“Making money is still so difficult…”
It is hard to shift from extravagance to frugality. Accustomed to dealing in hundreds of thousands of contribution points, seeing an increase of only thirty or forty thousand just wasn’t exciting.
However, the accumulation of capital tends to be the most challenging aspect at the beginning. Once it reaches a certain volume, it starts to snowball, and the growth of wealth becomes faster and faster.
“This time, like before, I guess it’s impossible to greatly expand the Reincarnation business. It seems due to the fact that they want to strictly control the number of cultivators, the Immortal Cultivation World’s response was much more intense than I had imagined. I can’t resist the power of Unity-Path with my current strength,” Li Fan contemplated earnestly.
“However, I can’t give up the four hundred thousand contribution points from Zhang Zhiliang.”
“This time, we still need someone to push the battle between the various God
Transformation cultivators of Ten Thousand Immortals Island and Crimson Flame.”
“Only, perhaps we can switch targets.”
A figure of a fat man abruptly appeared in Li Fan’s spirit consciousness.
“Zhang Haobo, possessed of an unusual fortune but not Heaven’s Fortune.
Although he was able to fight Crimson Flame to death with the power of the Misthaven Ocean and successfully integrated into the Unity-Path with his Gold Core. ”
“But facing MO Sha, who came next, he had no power to resist and was killed.” “His vitality has run out, his body has died, and his path has vanished.” “If his vitality was greater, would the outcome have been different?”
“Of course, the main thing is that I have fully comprehended the Twenty-eight Cloud Sea Swords, so if Zhang Haobo were to reincarnate again, it would be of no use to me.”
“Ye Feipeng, on the other hand, has a peculiar fate. If given enough assistance, he might very well give me a pleasant surprise.”
“Assisted by ‘The Mountain-Seating Secret’…”
“I wonder, if he successfully integrates into the Unity-Path, how much cultivation could he offer as feedback. Would it be enough to push me into the Golden Core Realm?”
“Of course, to guide this person, I must change my methods. If Zhang Haobo was moved by his feelings, this person must be enticed by profit.”
After careful planning, Li Fan had a concrete idea in his mind.
The reason he still chose to make others attempt the Unity-Path instead of trying himself was naturally due to the high risk.
The Unity-Path of the man in black could almost freeze Li Fan’s thinking, let alone the markedly stronger MO Sha.
Zhang Haobo, who had just integrated into the Unity-Path, was eradicated without having a chance to react. How could Li Fan ensure that he would be an exception?
There’s a probability of success, and there’s also a probably of failure ending in death. The probability of failure is not small. If he failed, there would be no chance of revival.
Li Fan doesn’t need to gamble.
“I can wait until the Spirit Mist Grass incident is settled before I go onto the layout of the alienation realm.”
“As for now…”
Li Fan started to look up how to join the Immortal Alliance.
Soon, piles of information surfaced.
There are a few different ways to take up a formal position within the Immortal Alliance.
First, you can participate in the Immortal Alliance’s assessment, which is held every 10 years.
However, to participate in the exam, several conditions must be met. For example, you need to have been a member of the Immortal Alliance for at least thirty years, your cultivation level must be at the Foundation Establishment Phase or above, and you must be skilled in at least one area and so on.
In simple terms, the Immortal Alliance does not support the idle or the useless.
Second, you can be recommended by a cultivator holding a high-rank position in the Immortal Alliance. After a probationary period of three years, the person under recommendation can hold the official position.
In simple terms, the Immortal Alliance does not care for the idle or the useless. Unless they have connections.
Third and finally, is a more unique method, which involves completing specific bounty tasks. These might include assassinating a key member of the Five Elders Organization, or completing an essential mission.
It is rumored that Zhou Qingang, the guard of Taian Island, joined the Immortal Alliance in this way.
Li Fan was quite interested in what He Zhenghao had said before, that privileges could be improved to the point where even techniques that were previously out of sight could be exchanged.
Because Li Fan found out that the power of the techniques offered by the Immortal Alliance for normal exchange was limited.
Perhaps as a measure to limit the combat strength of regular members of the
Immortal Alliance, the techniques Li Fan had seen in the Ten Thousand Profound Mirror throughout his many lives, did not include any truly divine techniques.
Not to say anything comparable to the Twenty-eight Cloud Sea Swords, even ones comparable to the Ocean Command Rapier were rare.
On second thought, Li Fan concluded it was quite reasonable. When cattle and horses grow strong enough to pose a threat, aren’t they rebelling against the natural order? Of course, there must be restrictions.
But for insiders within the system, the treatment is naturally different. As long as your authority is high enough, all sorts of divine techniques are readily available.
The benefits of being within the system are obvious. Li Fan began to scrutinize the specific bounty tasks.
As he read through, Li Fan’s eyebrows knitted together. Because he hadn’t paid attention to such tasks before, he had no idea what they entailed, but after reading, he soon spotted the peculiarities.
Only very few of these tasks have a certain bounty value. Such as tracking a spy from the Fifth Elder Club or executing a traitor from the Immortal Alliance.
However, most tasks were highly…
Customized?
Almost as if they were bounty tasks specifically created for a certain cultivator.
For instance, one of the tasks Li Fan saw was particularly eccentric.
To satisfy the needs of divination at the Myriad Immortal Guild Sky Machine Hall, they are recruiting a cultivator with the surname ‘Wu’, between the ages of 123 and 130, who cultivates a fire attribute technique, and is at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.
All that’s missing is a direct mention of a specific person’s name.
Li Fan was not unfamiliar with this way of doing things. It’s the concept of ‘a place for each’, after all.
However, he hadn’t expected that the Immortal Alliance had developed to this extent.
After looking over the selections, Li Fan didn’t find any tasks suitable for him.
The ten-vear assessment had just recentlv taken place too.
Li Fan without a clear way forward, once again resorted to asking questions from the always reliable Daoist He.
He Zhenghao’s response was still quick.
“Friend, you want to officially join the Immortal Alliance? Well, that could be a bit difficult. Mainly because you just joined the Immortal Alliance recently.”
“But, well, it’s not impossible.”
“I have some connections with the Array Master, Gong Boyu. He has a few positions for Array Repair Staff every year.”
“It only costs a little contribution, and you can get this position.”
“After working at this job for a year or two, you can use some relationships to transfer to another position.”
“Hehe, I’m only telling you this because you asked. Please don’t talk about it outside.’
“It may not look so good..”
