Chapter 1187: [886] Gathering Montum (Second Update, Asking for Monthly Pass)
The residences of the Moro Empire’s mbers are located on the mountain, with houses in view everywhere you look; the houses on the north side are even more peculiar, with unique shapes.
Following his gaze, Lan Xingshu spoke in an inexplicable tone: “Those houses were all left by our predecessors… In the beginning, there was nothing here. It was only after nurous battles that this mountain beca our territory.”
Pei Jinye looked over.
Lan Xingshu confird his guess: “Just as you see, most of the houses here are already empty… Either the owner has fallen in battle, or the term has expired, and they have left the mountain. Would you mind?”
“Mind what?” Pei Jinye asked.
“Mind that these houses have been used by others.”
“No, aren’t houses ant to be lived in?”
Pei Jinye didn’t care.
These houses had very little signs of life; it was obvious that the turnover rate of hoowners was fast.
“That’s good then,” Lan Xingshu nodded. “Newcors all get one newbie exemption opportunity, but exemption doesn’t an you can do as you please; it just ans the punishnt won’t be too severe…”
Pei Jinye got the ssage.
After Lan Xingshu handed over the keys to the house, he added, “Wait here for for a mont.”
After speaking, he hurriedly left.
Pei Jinye then entered his own room and looked around.
It was a two-story building; downstairs was for living, consisting of a bedroom, living room, and bathroom.
Upstairs there were two bedrooms and a living room.
On the door on the left side, there were the words Cultivation Room. Pei Jinye pushed open the door, took a glance, and noticed the material of the house was so special substance. He pressed his hand against the wall; only a dull sound emitted, but there was no sign of any damage whatsoever.
“This material… is quite appealing.”
The fact that so many precious Refining Device Materials were used just for one Cultivation Room… It was indeed extravagant.
He didn’t go so far as to dismantle the house. He just rembered Lan Xingshu ntioning that the houses were built with materials found locally.
That also ant he could gather more materials right here.
The Cultivation Room was roughly more than twenty square ters in size.
A brown straw mat lay on the floor.
It seed pretty unremarkable.
Leaving the room, he went on to the next one, which housed two bookshelves over two ters tall, sparsely filled with books.
Pei Jinye casually flipped through them and even found a notebook with graceful handwriting.
…
EQ230: [Yinsha Country is just a bunch of despicable villains, I’ve never seen such contemptible, shaless scoundrels! They verbally agreed to cooperate and then backstabbed us imdiately after, the scum deserves to die! Ahhhhh!]
EQ242: [Today was a close call… But the test involved a demon…]
…
Before Pei Jinye could continue reading, Lan Xingshu’s voice ca up from downstairs. He quickly put down the book and flashed to the top of the stairs.
As soon as he descended, he saw Lan Xingshu standing at the door with two bundles of books.
He hurriedly took them: “Senior brother, what is this for?”
“These are the test questions I’ve collected regarding the Matrix Controller assessnt; you can take a look… Although the questions differ each ti and aren’t related, it’s always good to see.”
After Lan Xingshu finished speaking, he took a step back and handed over a bag of Dan dicine: “There are five Fasting Pills inside. You eat one a month, no more, and you can exchange for more later with your rits…
The assessnt takes place over five days each week. You can go to the mountain top on the remaining two days. That’s where our Moro Empire’s Exchange Pavilion is, and it’s only open on the day the assessnt ends.”
“Are the materials for exchange from this world or brought in from outside?” Pei Jinye asked a critical question.
“Both,” Lan Xingshu thought for a mont before speaking, “After the assessnt, you’ll receive many rewards. Trialists will first choose what they need, and sell the unwanted items to the Empire officially to earn corresponding rits, then purchase other desired items. If you need sothing from outside, you can let us know in advance, and a dedicated liaison will handle the procurent.”
Pei Jinye understood.
After expressing thanks,
Lan Xingshu advised him to rest well before quickly departing, appearing to be quite busy.
Pei Jinye closed the door and took the books upstairs to the study.
At least thirty books in the two bundles…
However, Pei Jinye picked up the notebook he was just looking at again.
EQ242: [Today was so close, nearly failed the assessnt. But the questions ntioned the Demon Palace, could it be an ancient inheritance? Too bad I couldn’t investigate further…]
EQ353: [Damn Yinsha Country, a bunch of Swordn!!! And they even tried to screw over! But this week’s questions are so hard… No looking back, whoever’s in front will be the unlucky one. Sister Lan from Dongning Country is so smart, she actually walked backward.]
…
Until the entry marked as EQ399, the diary rely has a date with no content written, but there seem to be signs that sothing was ant to be written.
Pei Jinye saw signs of the nib touching the page, yet no words were ever written.
“Did he live here for 399 days?”
Perhaps the owner of this diary had successfully descended the mountain, or perhaps… he had encountered an unforeseen mishap.
Pei Jinye slowly closed the notebook.
The owner of the diary was an Alchemist.
Although there was no information about Dan dicine revealed in the diary, so rules of the assessnts were ntioned amidst a lot of complaints.
“Can’t look back… standing on one leg… the most absurd was even refining Dan dicine with a bowl of water on the head…”
Pei Jinye’s expression was a bit peculiar.
The absurdity of God Mountain exceeded his imagination.
…
After consuming the Fasting Pill, Pei Jinye entered the Cultivation Room to begin seclusion.
After setting up the Spirit Gathering Array, he sat down directly on the straw mat.
Unexpectedly.
A faint trace of Spiritual Energy was emanating from the straw mat.
Pei Jinye was instantly surprised.
“This mat is actually a Magic Artifact!”
Halting his cultivation.
He beca curious, stood up, picked up the straw mat to examine it, and after a careful feeling, he confird.
“It is indeed a Magic Artifact, but there are signs of wear on the bottom… It looks like it won’t last much longer.”
With a flip of his hand.
He chose two pieces of Refining Device Materials.
“Seems it’s not impossible to give it a little makeover.”
Three hours later.
The sky outside had completely darkened, but the Cultivation Room was brightly illuminated.
“Finally, it has taken shape.”
Pei Jinye didn’t feel tired, and now he had used the materials to upgrade the straw mat. Although troubleso, the effect on his subsequent cultivation would definitely be much better than that of the Spirit Gathering Array.
Sitting back on the straw mat, there was now a faint red lotus imprint at the bottom, very shallow.
Only when Pei Jinye began to activate his Cultivation Technique did the lotus imprint emit a bright light.
Under the pile of two Spirit Stones.
Feeling that the speed of cultivation had more than doubled compared to before, Pei Jinye was still sowhat dissatisfied.
“In the end, it’s still an issue with the materials, let’s see if I can find any better materials later…”
“My Flying Sword also needs to be upgraded in quality.”
Opening his mouth, he spat out.
Forty-two beams of light flew out.
Imdiately after, forty-two Flying Swords materialized, circling around Pei Jinye.
With a wave of his hand.
Countless treasures for Tempering the Flying Swords were thrown over like they cost nothing, rapidly refining.
