My Immortal Cultivation Game Life

Chapter 53: Chapter 53: New Task Channels

Lu Yi entered the Book Storage Pavilion and found himself in a vast hall lined with rows of wooden racks. Each rack held wooden plaques that bore the names of various Arts and Cultivation Techniques beneath them.

The racks were also divided into sections for Arts and Cultivation Techniques and were further sorted into various types based on their functions, making them easy to locate.

In front of each rack, disciples were examining the wooden plaques that introduced the Arts and Cultivation Techniques.

The entire hall was extremely quiet, with everyone immersed in the study of Arts and Cultivation Techniques.

Lu Yi’s gaze swept across the room as he mumbled to himself, “I need to pick a Body Refining Technique.”

[Task]

Select a Body Refining Technique (0/1)

Reward: Top-grade Yellow Bright Pill*100/Perfect Yellow Bright Pill*10

Accept: Yes/No

Lu Yi was amused internally, a reward for picking a technique?

How wonderful.

Though the reward wasn’t much, it was free—who wouldn’t like that?

Gleefully, Lu Yi accepted the task and began to search for the area devoted to Body Refining Techniques.

Soon, Lu Yi found the rack specifically for Body Refining Techniques and started to make his selection.

As a major cultivation sect in Qingzhou, the White Cloud Sect had an immense number of Arts and Cultivation Techniques. Even the Body Refining Techniques filled an entire rack.

No other cultivators were searching for Body Refining Techniques; the area in front of the rack was deserted except for Lu Yi.

He casually picked up the wooden plaque labeled “Withered Wood Technique” and began reading.

“Withered Wood Technique” toughens the body to be as hard as dried wood, but it’s not very effective in tempering the internal organs. Additionally, it is easily countered by fire cultivators.

Lu Yi rejected it outright; the drawbacks were too obvious.

Then he picked up the plaque for the “Grey Stone Body.”

After practicing “Grey Stone Body,” the physical defenses become as strong as rock, but with the disadvantage of reduced speed and flexibility.

Lu Yi declined this one as well, not quite right.

He wanted a more well-rounded Body Refining Technique, not one with such evident shortcomings.

Lu Yi continued searching without finding anything satisfactory until he had almost exhausted the rack, but finally, he discovered a technique that seemed suited to his needs.

“Jade Body Technique,” after cultivation, condenses a jade-like body, effectively tempering the skin, muscles, bones, vessels, and even the internal organs—a well-rounded enhancement.

However, the drawback was also apparent—the progress was extremely slow, and it consumed vast resources. The input did not proportionately match the output.

Ordinarily, it could take over a decade for a person to bring the “Jade Body Technique” to the Great Success Realm.

Keep in mind this is a Qi Cultivation Realm technique!

Over a decade, a standard Inner Sect Disciple might break through from the Qi Cultivation Realm to the Foundation Establishment Realm. What’s the use of this technique then?

Lu Yi figured not many would choose this technique.

But that was for others. For Lu Yi, lacking Body Refining resources was not an issue. Ever heard of Perfect Yellow Bright Pill? How about Tiger Bone Spirit Ginseng Soup?

Plus, he could consistently issue tasks, advancing far quicker than typical disciples.

Once advanced to higher levels, this Body Refining Technique might elevate Lu Yi’s capabilities to unimaginable heights.

Lu Yi decisively chose “Jade Body Technique.”

Lu Yi, holding the wooden plaque, walked out of the hall and approached the entrance.

Elder Ming was checking someone else’s token, while Donggong Ming Yue stood quietly by the side.

Seeing Lu Yi come out, both Elder Ming and Donggong Ming Yue looked his way.

Donggong Ming Yue walked up with a smile and asked curiously, “Junior brother, have you made your choice?”

Lu Yi nodded and smiled, “Yes, I have!”

Elder Ming smiled and asked, “Which cultivation technique have you chosen?”

Lu Yi placed the wooden token on the table and responded, “Elder Ming, I have chosen the ‘Jade Body Technique’.”

‘Jade Body Technique’?” Donggong Ming Yue paused, then asked, “Isn’t that body refining technique very difficult? Junior Brother, are you sure you want to choose this one?”

Elder Ming also appeared a bit surprised, he raised an eyebrow and said, “This technique requires a high level of talent in body refining. Generally, disciples cultivate it for ten years and might only achieve Small Success. Are you sure you want to choose this one?”

Lu Yi nodded and smiled, “I’m sure.”

Elder Ming smiled and said, “The youth is to be feared indeed. Since you have such confidence, this old man won’t try to persuade you otherwise.”

Donggong Ming Yue glanced at Lu Yi and did not say much more. At their level, geniuses generally had their own thoughts, and Donggong Ming Yue respected Lu Yi’s decision.

Elder Ming took the wooden token and then, flipping his hand, a jade scroll appeared. He said, “This is a one-time use jade scroll of the ‘Jade Body Technique.’ You can use it when you go back. Additionally, sect’s cultivation skills and arts cannot be passed to any other beings without permission, and you must pledge an oath.”

Lu Yi nodded, “I understand.”

He had gone through this process previously while practicing the White Cloud Qi Refining Art, White Cloud Sword Technique, and White Cloud Stance when he was in the Outer Sect.

After taking the oath, Lu Yi accepted the one-time use jade scroll of the ‘Jade Body Technique’ and then left with Donggong Ming Yue.

Donggong Ming Yue smiled gently and said, “Junior Brother, the ‘Jade Body Technique’ is quite difficult. If you aren’t successful, consider changing the technique early on. Don’t waste time, we need to break through the Heavenly Dao limitation, and we don’t have much time.”

Lu Yi heard the kindness in Donggong Ming Yue’s voice and nodded earnestly, “I understand, thank you for the reminder, Second Senior Sister.”

Donggong Ming Yue did not say more and smiled, “Junior Brother, is there anything else you need?”

Lu Yi thought for a moment. He had the materials for making spirit food and spiritual wine, he had the body refining technique, and he had plenty of resources for himself.

It seems there’s really nothing else, just need to cultivate earnestly.

Lu Yi said, “That’s all, let’s head back.”

Donggong Ming Yue cheerfully said, “Alright.”

At that moment, Donggong Ming Yue recalled something and said, “By the way, Junior Brother, even as a registered disciple of a peak master, you still need to attend the Trial Tower each month and the sect tasks each year. Don’t get too caught up in cultivation and forget the time.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yi nodded, “I know.”

Dugu Fang, the Grand Elder, had also briefed them about the Inner Sect Trial Tower. Inner Sect disciples had to visit it once a month to test the progress of their strength.

Moreover, the Trial Tower was also linked to the resource issue for Inner Sect disciples.

Generally speaking, an Inner Sect disciple’s resource access only had a few channels. One was distribution within the peak, another was gifts from their master, another was task rewards, and the last was the Trial Tower.

The White Cloud Sect would allocate resources based on the floors disciples reached in the Trial Tower, and even rank them according to their performance in the trials.

This served as a motivation for disciples, giving them greater enthusiasm to strive for higher cultivation and constant progress.

As for sect tasks, this was the same for both Inner and Outer Sects.

The sect didn’t specify the maximum number of sect tasks one could take. Even if you spent every day working on tasks in the Outer Sect, it would be fine, but at a minimum, every disciple had to complete one per year.

This was the case for both Outer and Inner Sects, and Lu Yi had already undertaken several sect tasks.

This year he hadn’t done his sect tasks yet, so he would need to do that soon.

As Lu Yi pondered this, another thought came to him — when completing sect tasks, could he also assign tasks to himself?

Earning double the rewards for a single task seemed like a good idea.

Also, for climbing levels in the Trial Tower, could he not also assign himself tasks to reach a certain floor?

And even on the trial rank leaderboard, could he not give himself a ranking target?

Thinking this, Lu Yi’s eyes sparkled as if he had discovered a new continent.

Brilliant!

He realized that after joining the Inner Sect, there were many more tasks he could undertake.

Immediately, Lu Yi became happy.

For now, he would focus on cultivating, and at the end of the month, he would visit the Trial Tower to test the waters!
