Chapter 542: Chapter 14 Shaoyin Mountain Quest Hall_3
“So scarce…”
Wang Ba frowned slightly.
“Are there other ways?”
To his surprise, Tian Fu nodded and said:
“Yes, in addition to the tasks published by the Sect, if you are appointed by the Sect to serve as the guardian of so small countries, you can also earn lots of rits. It’s said that one can earn two thousand rit points even without doing anything in a year. However, the chance is very small. Our Wanxiang Sect only administers five small countries, so the position of guardian is highly coveted. Other than that, managing the Linglong Ghost Market can also earn a lot of rits, varying from seventy to eighty points to almost a thousand in a year.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba was sowhat surprised because it imdiately reminded him of his master, Yao Wudi.
Yao Wudi is the guardian of Chen State. According to what Tian Fu just said, Yao Wudi earns a huge amount of two thousand rit points a year.
However, no matter how much rit Yao Wudi has, Wang Ba has no intention to covet it. He couldn’t help but ask further:
“What about other channels?”
He wouldn’t have a chance to beco a country’s guardian, and if his position is too low, his salary wouldn’t be much either, so this path is irrelevant to him.
Tian Fu thought seriously upon hearing Wang Ba’s question. Being a cultivator who grew up in the Sect, he thought of sothing quite quickly and hurriedly said:
“Yes, according to the rules of the Sect, if you make a contribution to the Sect, you will also be awarded rits. For example, if you present the Sect with so unique inheritance, cultivation thods, spells, art skills, or if you have maintained the Sect or made sacrifices, the Sect will reward you accordingly.”
“Our Minister Cui, for instance, was reportedly awarded a lot of rits for inventing a recipe for spirit food. Oh, and Minister He and Minister Xin too…”
This was mostly similar to what Deacon Kong had ntioned before.
Wang Ba was a little disappointed.
If he had a unique inheritance, he could give it a try, but given the stature of the Wanxiang Sect, the possibility was slim. There was a chance to try it, but that wasn’t a long-term solution.
Therefore, none of the thods that Tian Fu ntioned were suitable for him.
After hesitating for a little, Wang Ba asked:
“Then, can’t spiritual stones be exchanged for rits?”
Upon hearing Wang Ba’s words, Tian Fu’s face changed subtly. He quickly scanned the surroundings to make sure nobody had overheard. Then he said nervously:
“Deacon, that absolutely cannot be said recklessly. In our Sect, exchanging spirit stones for rits is strictly forbidden! Those who break the rule could even be expelled from the Sect!”
Wang Ba was slightly taken aback: “That strict?”
“Well… it can’t really be considered strict.”
To Wang Ba’s surprise, Tian Fu started to defend the rule:
“If spirit stones can be easily exchanged for rits, then us, the lower-class cultivators, will hardly have a chance to exchange for treasures from the Myriad Cave. In the end, we will probably not even be able to acquire any spirit stones.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba suddenly realized.
Indeed, if rits can be exchanged for spirit stones, high-class cultivators can easily use their abundant resources to drain the rits from lower-class cultivators and then deplete spiritual stones by exchanging their rits, forming a double kill.
It would be even harder for low-class cultivators to advance.
Looking from this perspective, the system that prevents the exchange of rits and spirit stones is actually designed to protect the developnt of low-class cultivators.
The Myriad Cave ensures that most low-class cultivators within the Sect have the resources for cultivation. The resources may not be abundant, but they et the basic needs.
Moreover, with the abundant spiritual energy environnt within the Wanxiang Sect, cultivators with good talent and decent Dao-heart can generally co through.
The Sect could also grow stronger.
Of course, understanding is one thing, but Wang Ba was a bit worried. If he can’t accumulate a large number of rits, he either has to spend more ti and rise in position, or he has to find another way.
“However…”
Tian Fu looked at Wang Ba, hesitated for a bit, then bit the bullet and said:
“In fact, so people secretly buy rits with spirit stones… mostly from new disciples who have just joined the Sect. These new disciples often don’t know the situation and don’t realize the value of rits, so they get deceived.”
“So people sell their rits out of urgent need for spirit stones. Deacon, if you need it…”
He didn’t go on, but simply pointed at himself, indicating that he had his own ways.
Wang Ba was imdiately tempted and asked in a low voice:
“What’s the price?”
Tian Fu, who had overco his hesitation, beca much more fluent:
“I’m not very clear, as I have never done it. But, Deacon, if you need it, I can inquire about it”
Wang Ba pondered for a mont. In the end, under Tian Fu’s sowhat puzzled gaze, he firmly shook his head:
“Maybe not for now…”
Despite his strong desire, Wang Ba treasures the peace of Wanxiang Sect even more.
He can accumulate rits slowly, it just involves a longer ti, but ti is what he has the most. There’s no need to take such a risk.
Although Tian Fu was sowhat regretful that he couldn’t help Wang Ba, he was also inexplicably relieved.
With the end of the conversation, Wang Ba no longer had any intention to stay around. After briefly asking a few basic questions, he imdiately departed and parted ways with Tian Fu.
Halfway into his journey, he suddenly stopped, hovered in mid-air for a while. Then, he turned around and flew towards the west.
After a while, he saw a majestic mountain shaped like a crouching tiger, standing under the rising moonlight.
“Shaoyin Mountain…”
