374. Chapter 367: Fellow Daoist, Please Stay Your Hand and Swing a Blade

In front of the Upper Purity Sect Myriad Treasures Pavilion, Hei Wuxia watched Mu Mu leave, the corner of his mouth twitching as he murmured.

"Hmph, Niu has found you."

"This fellow Daoist."

"Have you signed up for a Penguin Communication friendship account?"

"No! It's simply great."

"Let's check out the Pinxi xi slash."

Hei Wuxia moved through the crowd, hoping to settle the free spiritual treasure issue on the spot.

Near Silvercut City.

Countless cultivators, after receiving the news, urgently rushed over. In the Primordial Spirit Realm, each elixir and treasure requires a costly amount of heavenly essence; obtaining heavenly essence as the realm's hard currency is extremely difficult. They have personally witnessed many companions obtaining handy treasures and breakthrough elixirs at the Upper Purity Sect Myriad Treasures Pavilion in Silvercut City.

"I am Ming Yue."

"At a glance, you fellow Daoists are all people of great fortune."

"Silvercut City offers free treasures and elixirs—come learn more!" A cultivator near Silvercut City blocked a group of merchants resting in the forest, smiling broadly as he spoke.

His Pinxi xi slash is only 0.5 points shy of 100; upon reaching it he can freely exchange for a handy Crimson Profound Sword.

The merchant group totals eight cultivators, unfamiliar with recent events in Silvercut City—perfect timing to swindle them.

"Don't joke with Fellow Daoist Li Luo—how could the Primordial Spirit Realm have such a good thing?"

"Even the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion that shakes the Universe has never done such a thing." The middle-aged man leading the merchant group, not hiding his contempt, spoke.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Li Luo, you don't know this."

The Upper Purity Sect repeatedly repelled the orthodox great power Reed Flame Valley of the Universe, its brilliance shining as countless cultivators entered as disciples.

Upper Purity Sect Sect Leader Qingwei Daoist, to celebrate the founding of the sect, ordered the Upper Purity Sect Myriad Treasures Pavilion to freely bestow elixirs and treasures upon cultivators.

However, a small condition is attached." Ming Yue put on a smiling face, but inside he wanted to curse; brushing his face to get an 89 score left him feeling miserable.

Besides, thinking back, he had always been busy cultivating, and now past sixty, his looks naturally couldn't compare to young cultivators; failing the looks test was understandable.

What Ming Yue was fortunate about was his score on the Penguin Communication Jade Slip: Pinxi xi reminded him it was 98 points, far exceeding 95% of Pinxi xi users; he only needed to find fellow users of the Penguin Communication Jade Slip to support him on the Pinxi xi feature.

Reaching 100 points would grant him his handy Crimson Profound Sword.

Upon hearing this, Li Luo and the other cultivators immediately became interested.

Reed Flame Valley is one of the Universe's ten great orthodox sects, existing for millennia through wind and frost without decline, its foundations extraordinarily solid; yet the Upper Purity Sect could actually repel it twice, each time leaving not a single blade of Reed Flame Valley unscathed—this is quite intriguing.

"Fellow Daoist Ming Yue?"

"Could the Upper Purity Sect be a newly emerged great power of the Universe?"

"Even the cultivators sent out by Reed Flame Valley can be easily destroyed—simply too unbelievable." Li Luo's eyes flickered, a solemn expression rising as he spoke.

Ming Yue laughed hehe.

"Then the Upper Purity Sect's backing is the Slaughter Ghost Sect, one of the Universe's ten great evil sects; the Slaughter Ghost Sect's reputation has recently soared."

"It not only strongly suppressed the Assist Yang Sect based in Huanyu-adjacent City, but also the mighty cultivators of Bibo Palace, Heavenly Dragon Gate, and Purple Mansion, and furthermore offended Reed Flame Valley again."

"Five of the ten great orthodox sects have been utterly offended by the Slaughter Ghost Sect; both orthodox and evil factions are bewildered as to what this vast power intends to do."

"And now they've gone and created the Upper Purity Sect!"

Everywhere they proclaimed to distribute elixirs and treasures to Huanyu cultivators.

Truly generous—even the mighty Tianji Pavilion of Huanyu has never undertaken such a grand project." Ming Yue spoke with conviction, his eyes deep with fervor, explaining in detail to them.

When he deems the time ripe, he will register accounts for Li Luo and the others on the Penguin Message Jade Slip; they just need to help him make a cut to reach 100 points.

Li Luo and the others rolled up their sleeves and clenched their fists, their hearts ablaze.

This time coming to Silver Severed City to deliver goods, they really stumbled upon a great opportunity; among their team of cultivators, only a few possessed treasures.

Treasures differ from elixirs.

Elixirs can raise Cultivation Level or break through Realm barriers, used for self-preservation, etc.; a handy treasure can further boost combat power by thirty percent.

Their caravan's lowest cultivators are at mid Earth Origin Realm; if each possessed a treasure they could bear, even when encountering a peak Earth Origin Realm expert while guarding the goods, the enemy would not dare to contend with them.

"Fellow Daoist Ming Yue, what conditions are required to obtain the treasures and elixirs of the Supreme Clarity Sect's Myriad Treasures Pavilion?" Li Luo asked, eyes flashing with excitement; the other team members gazing at Ming Yue also burned with fervor.

"You've come to the right person." Seeing everyone take the bait, Ming Yue's heart blossomed with joy, and he spoke eloquently.

To obtain the treasures and elixirs of the Supreme Clarity Myriad Treasures Pavilion, one's appearance score must be above ninety.

Otherwise, cultivators must register an account on the Penguin Message Jade Slip and invite friends for support.

Ming Yue sized up Li Luo and the others, observing their words and expressions, speaking in an orderly manner.

He saw several burly men's faces turn pale, knowing these cultivators certainly understood that relying on looks wouldn't work.

As for the young cultivators, they were delighted, never having imagined that the condition for obtaining treasures and elixirs would be scoring by looks.

Isn't this trampling on their advantages? Each one's face was flushed with excitement.

In the Universe Cultivation World, who isn't a handsome young man?

Li Luo's face darkened somewhat; he wished he had been born decades later, but alas, time waits for no one, and he has already reached the age of knowing his destiny.

Fellow Daoist Ming Yue

What is the Penguin Message Jade Slip account registration? Li Luo asked; he could only pin his hopes on the second condition.

Upon hearing this, Ming Yue immediately took out the Penguin Message Jade Slip and then gave a detailed introduction before everyone.

Since we've met by fate, let me register accounts for you all.

Once you reach Silver Severed City, you only need to claim a free Penguin Jade Slip according to your account, no need to queue for registration.

Ming Yue grasped Li Luo's hand, asking for a drop of his essence blood, then entered various information; after Li Luo confirmed via facial recognition, the account registration was completed.

Fellow Daoist Li Luo

I am now using your account to invite me as a friend; in a moment, help me make a cut in the Sicily Puzzle.

We can help each other.

Silverbreak City's score hasn't reached 90 points; upon seeing a suitable treasure artifact or elixir, invite me to assist and make a cut for you.

«The free elixirs and treasure artifacts must unite to help each other. » Ming Yue, while speaking, used Li Luo's account to invite his own account to add as a friend.

«Fellow Daoist Ming Yue, help this venerable one register one as well. »

Upper Clarity Sect's Myriad Treasure Pavilion distributes treasure artifacts and elixirs, but there may be time or quantity limits.

«Registering early might allow one to obtain it earlier. » Li Xi, standing beside Li Luo, after pondering, said.

This remark instantly drew everyone's attention, and they all felt it made perfect sense.

«Fellow Daoists, come come come, let's help you register your accounts. »

I will personally take you to Silverbreak City to avoid detours, so you can quickly obtain treasure artifacts and elixirs.

Along the way, you can all use the Penguin Jade Slip to browse the needed elixirs and treasure artifacts.

By adding friends as mutual connections, if the score is insufficient, directly select the needed item to assist each other, obtaining the needed items more swiftly.

Li Luo and the others, hearing this, felt it made perfect sense.

After Ming Yue registered accounts for Li Luo and the other cultivators, he logged back into his own account, then added each of their friend invitations, and afterwards sent the support from Pin Xixi's friends to Li Luo and the other cultivators.

Ming Yue first came to Li Luo's side, helped log into Li Luo's account, and after a series of operations, the backend of Pin Xixi displayed that the support assistance succeeded.

He hurriedly logged into his own account to check; originally 99.5 points, it had become 99.7 points.

Ming Yue couldn't help but sigh.

As Pavilion Master Zheng Lin said, the score boost from a new user's single cut is the highest.

He stared at the number displayed on Pin Xixi, feeling even more nervous; 99.8 points, still lacking 0.2 points, and the magic treasure and elixir were already within reach.

«Fellow Daoist Li Xi, help me try a cut. »

Ming Yue came to Li Xi's side; seeing this, the other cultivators also felt it was extraordinarily novel and gathered around.

They too will need to provide support later, so they wanted to learn about it in advance.

«Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on successful support assistance. »

Ming Yue's whole body began to tremble; just now, Li Luo's single assistance added 0.3 points, and Li Xi's successful assistance added another 0.3 points, directly reaching 100 points. Thinking this, his heart felt hot as if he already saw the elixir and treasure artifact fall into his storage bag.

Ming Yue's breathing became rapid, and the other cultivators also gazed at him with fiery eyes.

Those are free elixirs and treasure artifacts, each costing at least hundreds of days of essence; for cultivators in the Primordial Spiritual Realm who do not fall, this is the maximum annual income.

«Huh? »

«99.9 points? »

Ming Yue stared at the number displayed on Pin Xixi, his brow furrowed, full of doubt.

Could it be that each supporting cultivator among the friends thereafter is random?

Ming Yue speculated thus, still lacking 0.1 point—let's go all out!

He went to Li Mei's side and performed another vigorous, tiger-like maneuver; upon seeing the words 'support assistance succeeded,' his face turned red.

«This time we finally succeeded. » Ming Yue said satisfiedly.

«Haha, congratulations, Fellow Daoist Ming Yue, on joyfully obtaining the treasure artifact. » Seeing Ming Yue's expression and demeanor, Li Luo hurriedly offered praise.

«Thank you, fellow Daoists; after I receive the treasure artifact, I will also help you all. » Ming Yue beamed with joy, his heart greatly excited.

He then hurriedly switched back to his own account; upon seeing the number on Pin Xixi, his vision went black and he nearly fainted.

He struggled to regain composure from his suffocated state, staring at that number, furious and wanting to smash the Penguin Jade Slip.

Yet 99.96 points and 100 points are separated by a hair's breadth, and he is extremely reluctant to let go.

«Fellow Daoist Ming, don't be anxious; we still have five people. »

The remaining fellow Daoists will also help you with their support; let's see if we can ultimately reach 100 points.

«If not, we'll go to the Upper Clarity Sect to seek justice. » Li Luo supported Ming Yue's body and, standing beside him, offered comfort.

Each treasure artifact and elixir is worth a fortune; how could they be so easily obtained? It is perfectly normal that some hidden means are involved.

Now it is already 99.96 points.

He also wanted to see whether Pin Xixi could truly assist in obtaining free treasure artifacts and elixirs.

«Li Jiang, come over and give it a try. »

Li Luo shouted for his younger brother; Li Jiang logged into his own Penguin account, entered Pin Xixi, and followed Ming Yue's operations. When the support assistance succeeded, Ming Yue again trembled with both hands, gripping the Penguin Jade Slip.

This time it will surely succeed.

Ming Yue silently prayed in his heart, his whole heart feeling as if it were suspended.

«Fellow Daoist Li Luo, help me take a look. »

Ming Yue's mouth twitched slightly; he said with a face full of hesitation.

He couldn't accept reality and fainted again.

«Good. »

After hearing that, Li Luo, once Ming Yue had logged into his account, opened the help column on Pin Xixi, furrowing his brows into a shape like the three‑stroke Chinese character that looks like three short parallel lines.

«How is the elder brother? »

Li Jiang stood to the side, anxiously asking, his heart full of anticipation.

«Brother bro bro, just know bro. »

«You little brat, when will you grow up? Everything lets the old man call the shots. »

«Damn it, if you don't break through to the peak of the Earth Origin Realm this year, I'll break your dog legs. »

Li Luo, like a ignited firecracker, suddenly shouted out; his wild aura caused all his teammates to fall silent like cicadas in winter.

Ming Yue, standing beside Li Luo, also jumped in fright—just looking at a score, after all!

Li Luo's temper is even more explosive than his.

However, when he saw the 99.9 points on Pin Xixi, his mind buzzed, and he almost fainted again.

Ming Yue steadied his spirit, supported Li Luo's arm, and comforted him.

"Li Luo, don't be angry, we still have people, we still have people!"

Li Luo let out a cold snort, glanced at the few remaining teammates who hadn't contributed, and the latter, being sensible, stepped forward.

"Ming Yue, have you invited everyone this time?"

The headline claimed that the names of those who obtained various treasures were not fake.

Each friend's supporting score might get lower and lower as it goes on.

Treasures and elixirs are priceless, so they shouldn't be so easy to obtain.

"We need to relax our mindset, confirm the authenticity of the Shangqing Sect Myriad Treasures Pavilion event before we can plan further." Li Luo took a deep breath and said cautiously.

Ming Yue thought that made sense; the gloom in his heart eased considerably. Treasures and elixirs are extremely expensive—if everyone could easily obtain them, a sect would be drained dry.

This time, after listening to Li Luo, he shared the remaining few friends and carried out the chopping assistance.

Afterwards, everyone gathered again, carefully performing the chopping operation step by step.

Congratulations, fellow cultivator, on your successful assistance.

Li Luo stared at the words on the Penguin Jade Slip, his hand trembling slightly, more excited than when he himself did the chopping.

If this group of cultivators were to buy treasures outright, they would need at least twenty or thirty years for each to equip one.

If the activity Ming Yue mentioned were genuine, they wouldn't need to risk their lives entering the Heavenly Abyss to earn heavenly essence, and the assigned tasks could be safer.

Congratulations, fellow cultivator, on your successful assistance.

Li Luo stared at the words on the Penguin Jade Slip, his heart clenched tightly.

"Alas, we can only move on to the next one."

Ming Yue's expression fell; he hardly held any hope left in his heart.

Only two cultivators remained present; they would have been busy for nothing.

Sorry, fellow cultivator, the other party has already completed the assistance and cannot do it again.

Papapapa

After the prompt text for Pin Xixi appeared on the Penguin Jade Slip, the sound of fireworks bursting with papapapa noises rang out.

"Ming Fellow Cultivator, your assistance assistance succeeded!"

Li Luo stared at the information on the Penguin Jade Slip, his face full of disbelief; the other cultivators also joyfully jumped up and down.

"Succeeded, truly succeeded."

"Quickly log in to your fellow cultivator's account and take a look." Li Luo said anxiously.

Ming Yue heard this and his whole body trembled uncontrollably, his scalp tingled, his body swayed like in the wind, his heart felt as if being tightly gripped. He stared unblinking at the Penguin Jade Slip, entered his account information into the Pin Xixi field, his hand began to shake, eager to click but afraid to do so.

"Go ahead and click, fellow cultivator, good fortune has arrived."

Li Luo suddenly pressed Ming Yue's hand onto the confirm button, and a series of messages mixed with the sound of exploding fireworks appeared in the column.

Congratulations, fellow cultivator, for reaching 100 points and obtaining a Crimson Profound Sword; please claim it at the Shangqing Sect Myriad Treasures Pavilion with this image.

At the same time.

The news of Ming Yue obtaining the Crimson Profound Sword was being broadcast as the headline on Pin Xixi.

"Really."

"Really obtained a Crimson Profound Sword for free."

All the cultivators present were filled with disbelief, tears slowly welling up in their eyes. (End of chapter)
