Li Xun, an ordinary man originated from the planet of earth find himself transmigrated into another world out of a sudden, while being transmigrated into a world of fantasy is a dream to many, Li Xun included, however, it turn out the world that he transmigrated into is a world of Cultivation, where being that can raze mountain, split the sea, and shatter the star roaming around without a care to the fate of the weak whom they kill in the millions by accident each day. The young man is already planning to write up his last will when he finds out that he doesn’t start his life in this new world from zero. Not only does he have some decent talent in cultivation and a nice family helping him back home, he also has a system transmigrated alongside him. The name of the System is The Ultimate Investment System. From then on, everything changed. “Junior brother, from the look of it, you are just one step away to breaking through the Qi Refining Realm, I happen to have a Spirit Origin Pill here that can help you guarantee your success!” [Congratulations, Host, for your successful investment, you have gained twenty years worth of closed door cultivation QI!] “My dear friend, I heard that you have been fatally injured by your former ally and have your foundation shattered, thankfully, I have this Grand Dao Golden Pill in my hand, take this, this Pill here would be able to help you restore back your cultivation foundation!” [Congratulations, Host, for your successful investment, you have obtained an Emperor-Grade Weapon!] ……….. After many years has passed since he transmigrated into this world, Li Xun, who is in need of dire help, got a lot of aid from those who he had helped in the past. Emperor of Taixuan Empire, once nothing but a poor beggar whom Li Xun found half dead in the middle of the street, brandished his sword toward his enemies and bellowed at them. “If it weren’t for my friend Li Xun who saved me and gave me a cultivation technique back then, how could I have achieved what I have today? Whoever opposes Li Xun in the future will be an enemy of my empire, The Great Taixuan Empire!” Not less loud as the Emperor, a Black Dragon whose body stretched into thousands of miles, a publicly known Lord of the Forbidden Zone, let out a sky shattering roar. “Years ago, I was hunted down by my enemies to be turned into Elixir Pill, and I’m still alive right now all because of Li Xun who saved me, Hear my decree you worthless maggot! From this day forward, Li Xun’s friends are my friends, and Li Xun’s enemies are my enemies!”
"Lu Changhe?"
Li Xun thought for a moment.
He had some impression of this person, who seemed to have had a good relationship with the original owner.
Lu Changhe had joined Profound Sun Sect two years earlier than Li Xun and was the one who led him to his residence when he first joined.
Logically speaking, since Lu Changhe had joined earlier, Li Xun should call him senior brother.
However, in the outer sect, the rule was that whoever was stronger was the senior brother, and Li Xun had already broken through to the tenth level of Body Refinement first.
Therefore, Lu Changhe's status automatically dropped from senior brother to junior brother.
After figuring everything out, Li Xun closed the jade box containing the Spirit Yuan Pill and placed it aside, then said, "Brother Lu, please come in."
Creak
The door opened in response.
A young man in blue robes walked into the room with steady steps.
He was handsome and had an extraordinary demeanor.
Upon entering, he immediately cupped his hands towards Li Xun.
"Greetings, Senior Brother."
"No need to be so polite between us, after all…"
Li Xun waved his hand casually.
But before he finished speaking.
Li Xun's expression suddenly changed.
Because, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Ding, congratulations to the master, for discovering a white investable person. Invest one Spirit Yuan Pill to gain twenty years of cultivation!]
"Huh?"
Li Xun frowned.
He looked up and saw that Lu Changhe, who had seemed ordinary before, was now enveloped in a white light.
Above Lu Changhe's head, the words "Investable Person" appeared in large characters.
Each character was very prominent and impossible to ignore.
'Is this a special effect of the system?'
Li Xun was speechless.
This notification method was indeed a bit unique.
'The system said that investing one Spirit Yuan Pill could give me twenty years of cultivation. System, you must have known that I have a Spirit Yuan Pill and deliberately made me invest it, right?'
Li Xun complained in his heart.
Comparing one Spirit Yuan Pill to twenty years of cultivation.
Without a doubt.
The latter was more tempting.
After all, the Spirit Yuan Pill only increased the success rate of breaking through to the Qi Condensation stage.
For Li Xun, it might save him about half a year of hard work, but twenty years of cultivation was different.
With good luck, he could not only break through to the Qi Condensation stage but perhaps even reach the Spirit Meridian stage in one go!
The Spirit Meridian stage is the next stage after the Qi Condensation stage.
Li Xun thought that reaching the peak of Body Refinement in two years, twenty years to reach the Spirit Meridian stage didn't seem unreasonable, did it?
"Senior Brother?"
At this moment, Lu Changhe spoke again.
He looked at Li Xun with confusion.
Since entering, Li Xun had glanced at him strangely and then stared meaningfully at a jade box on the table.
This behavior left him puzzled.
"I just remembered some cultivation matters, don't mind it, Brother Lu."
Li Xun came back to his senses and made an excuse.
Then.
He pointed to a chair beside him and said, "Please sit, Brother Lu. From now on, let's address each other as brothers in private. After all, in these two years, you're the only one I've been familiar with among the outer disciples of Profound Sun Sect."
"Then I will daringly call you Brother Li."
Lu Changhe sat on the chair beside him, though he changed the way he addressed Li Xun, his expression was still somewhat restrained.
Now. Li Xun was no longer the newcomer he used to be.
Currently, Li Xun had reached the tenth level of Body Refinement, faster than Lu Changhe.
Moreover, over the past two years, Li Xun's family background had gradually been revealed.
For an outer disciple without a background like Lu Changhe, he already felt a sense of awe towards Li Xun.
Although both were outer disciples of Profound Sun Sect, many knew that Li Xun's future was bound to be limitless.
At this moment, seeing that Li Xun still remembered their past friendship.
Lu Changhe was deeply moved.
After all, not everyone like Li Xun would remember their old friends.
Calming his emotions, Lu Changhe remembered his purpose for coming.
He said, "Brother Li, you didn't go out today. Did you forget that today is the day to receive the sect's stipend?"
"Sect's stipend?"
Li Xun was taken aback.
He had just transmigrated and spent a lot of time integrating his memories, so he hadn't gotten around to collecting the stipend.
"The sect's stipend can wait," Li Xun waved his hand, saying.
Compared to the stipend, he valued the twenty years of cultivation more.
"Uh…" Lu Changhe laughed awkwardly.
To him, it seemed he had been meddlesome, as Brother Li didn't seem to care about the sect's stipend.
And rightly so.
Brother Li was the eldest son of a prestigious family; why would he care about the few low-grade spirit stones from the sect?
"Brother Lu seems to have broken through to the tenth level of Body Refinement?"
Li Xun looked deeply at Lu Changhe, his voice full of meaning, bringing Lu Changhe back to reality.
Lu Changhe smiled bitterly, "My aptitude is not as good as Brother Li's. I barely broke through half a month ago. If nothing unexpected happens, this might be my limit."
He had spent four years to reach the tenth level of Body Refinement.
In the cultivation world, the higher the stage, the harder it becomes to advance.
While from the tenth level of Body Refinement to the early stage of Qi Condensation seemed like just one stage.
But it was a stage that countless people could never cross in their lifetime.
Whether he could break through to the Qi Condensation stage within a year, Lu Changhe himself wasn't sure.
To him, the possibility of being sent down the mountain was higher.
"Brother Lu, don't be discouraged. Maybe I can help you."
Li Xun said calmly.
"Huh?" Lu Changhe looked up in disbelief and asked, "Brother Li, did you just say…"
"I said, I can help you."
Li Xun smiled and placed his hand on the jade box on the table, saying, "There's a Spirit Yuan Pill in here. It can assist you. With good luck, you might break through to the Qi Condensation stage."
"Spirit Yuan Pill…"
Hearing these three words, Lu Changhe's breath quickened.
He knew the value of such a pill.
Precisely because he knew its value, it felt unreal.
A Spirit Yuan Pill was worth a hundred middle-grade spirit stones!
An outer disciple's monthly stipend was just five low-grade spirit stones.
A hundred middle-grade spirit stones could be exchanged for ten thousand low-grade spirit stones.
An outer disciple, even if they saved for five years without spending a single spirit stone, couldn't afford a Spirit Yuan Pill.
