Chapter 17 Money makes the world go round
Among them, the book "Detailed Explanation of Basic Spells" does not record how to cultivate spells, but explains the characteristics and advantages and disadvantages of some common basic spells, which can only be regarded as knowledge expansion.
After all, it is impossible to cultivate spells with the thin mana of the reserve errand disciples. Some basic spells need to become formal errand disciples to be taught.
"Taixuan Body Forging Technique" records some boxing, palm techniques, and body techniques collected by Taixuan Sect. After practicing, they can strengthen the body and increase the body's reaction ability, which is crucial in combat.
"Taixuan Sword Technique" is a sword technique created by Taixuan Patriarch. It is divided into three realms. Only the first realm is the human realm, the second realm is the spiritual realm, and the third realm is the heavenly realm.
According to the introduction of the senior brother who arranged the dormitory, in Taixuan Sect, boxing, palm techniques, body techniques, sword techniques, and spells can be not proficient, but they must be mastered so that there will not be particularly obvious shortcomings in combat.
Ye Lin was like a completely dehydrated sponge. As soon as he picked up these immortal books, he was completely immersed in them. Even if his stomach was rumbling with hunger, he didn't want to put down the books.
Unknowingly, it was noon. Ye Lin was reading enthusiastically when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Brother Ye Lin, are you home? Let's have a big meal!"
Only then did Ye Lin react. He was so engrossed in reading that he forgot about the lunch.
Just after putting down the book, Ye Lin stood up and staggered. He felt dizzy and touched his belly. It seemed that it was a little sunken due to hunger.
"It's good to have Xiaoqiang here. Unfortunately, there are so many monks here. Xiaoqiang will be beaten to death if he is released to steal food."
Ye Lin circulated the magic power in his dantian and flowed to his brain along the meridians. For a moment, he felt that his mind was much clearer and his spirit was lifted. Then he took a big step and opened the door.
Wang Changsheng, the son of a wealthy businessman, and Song Lingtian, a certain prince of the Great Xuan Dynasty, were already standing at the door. Now they had all changed into the Taoist robes of the Taixuan Sect.
Even Wang Changsheng, who had a round face and small eyes, looked like an immortal after putting on the Taoist robes, and his temperament was much improved.
As for Song Lingtian, who was originally cold, he had completely transformed into a fairy killer, and his temperament was like a banished immortal, making people dare not look directly at him.
In terms of appearance and temperament, Song Lingtian was even stronger than Ye Lin.
Ye Lin said a little embarrassedly: "Sorry, I was fascinated by reading."
Wang Changsheng said: "It's okay, we were also reciting the sect rules before, so as not to violate the sect rules by accident without knowing which one we violated... Too many rules are also very troublesome."
Song Lingtian said: "I have memorized the sect rules while I was still in the mortal world. As long as you walk with me, you will not make mistakes easily. In fact, the sect rules will not affect your daily life."
Ye Lin locked the door, and the three of them went downstairs quickly.
It was mealtime, and groups of monks in Taixuan Sect robes could be seen coming and going in the stairwell built of huge stones, and only a few people were alone.
Walking out of the dormitory building, not far downstairs was the training ground that Ye Lin had seen when he opened the window before. Even though the sun was scorching and it was mealtime, there were still many brothers and sisters in the training ground who were practicing day and night.
This made Ye Lin's heart tremble slightly.
He always thought that he had worked very hard, and now he did not forget to keep the rhythm of breathing every moment, but now he realized that there were so many people who worked harder than him.
Song Lingtian said calmly: "Practicing is a race against lifespan. In this world of cultivating immortals, there are too many people who work hard, but many cultivators have poor aptitude and poor comprehension, so it is difficult to make great progress even if they work hard."
Wang Changsheng laughed and said: "My father once said that if you take a proper rest and enjoy the fun of life, you may be able to seize the opportunity of breakthrough. Practicing is like doing business, you can't be too stubborn."
Speaking of this, Wang Changsheng winked and said: "Brother Ye should still be a novice. Wait for some time, I will introduce some fairy sisters to you... I promise to find some with excellent looks."
After saying that, Wang Changsheng also showed an expression that you know.
Ye Lin coughed twice.
"You are still young, let's talk about it another day..."
Wang Changsheng took out two maps of the interior of Taixuanmen without knowing when, and gave one to Ye Lin. He opened the map and quickly locked the destination of this trip-Juyuan Pavilion.
After walking along the tree-lined path for a while, the three of them arrived at the Juyuan Pavilion Restaurant. There were many statues of food ingredients erected at the entrance of the restaurant, which looked quite grand. The restaurant was exquisite and elegant. Ye Lin even saw male and female monks wearing Taixuan Sect Taoist robes working as waiters in the restaurant.
What Ye Lin didn't expect was that the restaurant owner had already brought several slim and beautiful maids to wait at the door early. When Wang Changsheng walked in, the middle-aged owner and many maids saluted respectfully.
"Master, you are finally here. The private room is ready."
Wang Changsheng waved his hand: "No need to be polite. Today, I am going to entertain two distinguished guests. Bring me all the signature dishes in the store... Forget the fairy wine. We have just joined the sect recently and have many things to do. Drinking will delay things."
"Yes, sir!"
This Juyuan Pavilion Restaurant is actually one of Wang Changsheng's family businesses. His family has already done business in Taixuan Sect. This surprised Ye Lin, but Song Lingtian remained calm, as if he had known it for a long time.
Led by the shopkeeper, Ye Lin and the other two walked into the exquisite and luxurious private room. The beautiful maids stood around waiting for instructions.
Wang Changsheng said with some pride: "In the future, when you come to the restaurant to eat, you can get a 50% discount if you tell me Wang Changsheng's name!"
Ye Lin thought, let alone a 50% discount, he probably couldn't afford a 10% discount.
Wang Changsheng lay comfortably on a rocking chair in the private room, and the gentle maids immediately came forward to give him a gentle massage and pounding on his legs.
Ye Lin even clearly felt that these maids also had mana fluctuations in their bodies. They were all cultivators with spiritual roots, and they would be honored as "immortals" in the mortal world, but here, they still had a charming smile on their faces, wishing that Wang Changsheng would immediately fall in love with them and try hard to please Wang Changsheng.
Wang Changsheng made a look, and the other pretty maids also smiled and approached Ye Lin and Song Lingtian, and were about to extend their jade hands to massage their shoulders, but were scared away by Song Lingtian's cold and arrogant eyes.
"No need."
"Thank you, no need..."
The first sentence was said by Song Lingtian, and the second sentence was said by Ye Lin. Ye Lin was not at all used to this way of enjoyment that he could never dream of.
Wang Changsheng chuckled and said, "You have to enjoy what you should enjoy. There is no rule in the sect that forbids disciples from enjoying this. What is the purpose of comprehending immortality and cultivating immortality? Isn't it just for enjoyment? When I, Fatty, cultivate to become a Nascent Soul, I will have to recruit a group of extremely beautiful golden elixir fairies to serve me."
Ye Lin couldn't find a good reason to refute Wang Changsheng's point of view for a while, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Is cultivating immortality for enjoyment?
Ye Lin also wanted to enjoy, but his way of enjoying was more subtle. He wanted to have strength that no one could suppress him, and then marry one or two girls he liked and live a peaceful and happy life.
At least, his descendants would no longer be slaves.
At the same time, Wang Changsheng made Ye Lin realize that the background in the mortal world was not worthless after entering the Taixuan Sect as his senior brothers said. As long as the power in the mortal world was large enough, he could still call the shots in the Taixuan Sect.
The respected fairies also had to lower their posture to serve the rich. This was actually... no different from the secular world!
The world of immortal cultivation... doesn't seem to be otherworldly.
Soon, the delicious food was served to the table by the maids.
Ye Lin saw roast chickens, beef leg steaks, and some animal livers that he couldn't name at all but were all surprisingly large. Every dish was delicious.
Wang Changsheng introduced to Ye Lin: "Brother Ye Lin, these ingredients are either monster meat or poultry meat raised with spiritual herbs and plants. Eating them can strengthen your body and increase your cultivation. I won't be polite to you... We are family, so eat whatever you want!"
Wang Changsheng first picked up a whole delicious roast chicken and began to devour it. Seeing this, Ye Lin also grabbed a huge beef leg and began to eat it to fill his stomach.
This is definitely the most delicious and high-end food he has ever eaten since he was born. If it weren't for the beef leg bones that he couldn't bite, he would probably have chewed them up and swallowed them.
Wang Changsheng and Ye Lin both ate in a rather rough and barbaric manner, while Song Lingtian ate very elegantly. But strangely, he was the fastest eater among the three...
The three of them devoured the food in no time, and soon the entire table was clean.
After eating, Ye Lin felt a warm feeling in his stomach, and a trace of spiritual power was flowing from his stomach along the meridians throughout his body, condensing into magic power in his dantian. He clearly felt that his cultivation was slowly improving as the food was digested!
