I Can Help You!

"Lu Changhe?"

Hearing the name of the person who knocked on his door, Li Xun held his head in his hand and began to carefully begin to surf through the memory of this new body of his, trying to see if there is any info about the other person.

After a quick moment, he had gained some information about this Lu Change. From the look of it, the original owner of this body has some favorable impression of this person, and is close enough with him to be considered as some sort of a friend.

From his memory, this Lu Changhe joined the Xuanyang Sect two years earlier than Li Xun was, and when Li Xun joined the sect, it was Lu Changhe who had helped him find his place of residence.

In theory, since Lu Changhe has joined the sect 2 years earlier than he was, Li Xun should be the one who called the other party as Senior Brothe rinstead of the other wise, earlier, But since this is in th eOuter Sect, the rule of formality is not strict, so whoever has the upper hand in strength would be regarded by the weaker as the senior brother.

And since Li Xun was the first amongst the two of them to break through to the Tenth Level of Body Tempering Realm, Lu Changhe's status as the senior brother automatically diminished, going from his Senior Brother to Junior Brother.

After understanding everything, Li Xun closes the jade box in his hand that are containing the Spirit Origin Pill and casually places it aside, after making sure that there is nothing wrong with his clothing, Li Xun cleared his throat and said. "Brother Lu, please come in."

Creak.

Hearing his response, lu Changhe slowly opened the door.

When the door opened fully, a young man dressed in green robes strides into the room.

The young man who entered the room has a dignified appearance and a remarkable temperament, and as soon as he entered the room, he immediately clasped his fist into his palm, and bowed his head to Li Xun.

"Greetings, Senior Brother."

Seeing his action, Li Xun waved his hand toward Lu Changhe and said casually. "No need to be so formal between us, after all..."

But before the transmigrated young man is able to finish his words, Li Xun's expression suddenly changes as he hears a mechanical voice that is undeniably from the Investment system suddenly rings in his mind.

[Ding, congratulations, Host. A White-Ranked investable person has been found. By investing one Spirit Origin Pill, you can gain Qi twenty years worth of closed door cultivation!]

"Hmm?"

Hearing the system word, Li Xun furrows his brow.

He looks up at Lu Changhe, who was previously nothing out of the ordinary but is now enveloped in White light. And in his eyes, just right above Lu Changhe's head, two large words, "White Investable," have appeared.

Each of these words is very conspicuous and impossible to ignore, unless someone is blind.

"Is this a special effect of the system?"

Li Xun is speechless seeing this.

This way of notification is indeed a bit unique.

'Just now, you told me that by investing one Spirit Origin Pill to Lu Changhe, I can gain Qi twenty years worth of closed door cultivation, System, are you intentionally trying to make me invest because you knew I had a Spirit Origin Pill in my hand?' Complained Li Xun in his mind.

Compared to one Spirit Origin Pill, A Qi worth twenty years of closed door cultivation is undoubtedly much more beneficial to him.

After all, a Spirit Origin Pill only increases the success rate of a cultivator making a breakthrough to the Qi Refining Realm. For Li Xun, by consuming the Spirit Origin Pull, at most, it would only save him around half a year of arduous cultivation.

But should he obtain a Qi that is worth 20 years of non-stop cultivation, it would be a different story entirely.

And If lady luck is being merciful to him, not only can he break through to the Qi Refining Realm, but he might even advance directly to the Spirit Essence Realm!

The Spirit Essence Realm is the next realm after the Qi Refining realm.

Li Xun thinks to himself that with his talent that allow him to reach the peak of the Body Tempering Realm in just two years, it wouldn't be abnormal for him at all to achieve the Spirit Essence Realm after absorbing a Qi that are worth twenty years of closed door cultivation, right?

"Senior Brother?"

At this moment, Lu Changhe speaks again.

He looks at Li Xun with confusion. Since Lu Changhe entered the room, Li Xun has been giving him strange looks and has been eyeing the jade box on the table with a meaningful gaze.

This action leaves Lu Changhe feeling puzzled.

"I just remembered some matters regarding cultivation, Brother Lu. Please don't mind about it," Li Xun quickly regains his composure and offers a casual excuse to the other party.

Then, he points to the chair beside him and says, "Brother Lu, please have a seat. In our private interactions, we can just address each other as brothers. After all, over these past two years, among all the outer sect disciples of Xuanyang Sect, only you and I have become acquainted."

"In that case, I will presumptuously address you as Brother Li." Lu Changhe replies and takes a seat.

Lu Changhe sits on the chair beside him, and although he has changed the way he addresses Li Xun, there is still a hint of restraint in his expression.

The current Li Xun is no longer the same as when he first joined.

Li Xun has already reached the Tenth Level of Body Tempering Realm, one step ahead of Lu Changhe. Coupled with the gradual exposure of Li Xun's family background over these past two years, Lu Changhe, as an outer sect disciple without a prominent background, can't help but feel a sense of awe towards Li Xun.

Although they are both current outer sect disciples of Xuanyang Sect, many people are well aware that Li Xun's future achievements will be boundless.

Seeing that Li Xun still remembers their past friendship, Lu Changhe finds it impossible not to be moved. After all, in this cruel world where a child can kill a parent for a scrap of benefit and vice versa, not everyone can hold onto past connections like Li Xun does.

Calming his excited emotions, Lu Changhe remembers the purpose of his visit.

After gatherhing his bearing, Lu Changhe took a breath and speaks up, "Li Xun, I had noticed that you didn't go out of your abode today, I just want to make sure whatever you forget that today is the day to collect the stipend from the sect's?"

"Sect's stipend?" Li Xun pauses for a moment. He had just transmigrated today and merging his memories took up a considerable amount of time. As for collecting the sect's stipend, he hadn't even thought about it yet.

"I didn't forget about it, It's just that I have a more urgent matter at hand and the sect's stipend can wait for now," Li Xun waves his hand.

Compared to the sect's stipend, he values the Qi twenty years worth of closed door cultivation more.

"Uh..." Healing his words, Lu Changhe can only let out an awkward smile.

In his eyes, he feels like he's made a fuss over nothing, as it seems that Li Xun doesn't really care about whether he would receive the sect's stipend or not.

When you think about it, Li Xun is the eldest son of a prestigious family, so why would he pay much attention to a few Low-Grade spirit stones as the sect's stipend?

"Hm? Lu Changhe, It seems that you have broken through to the Tenth Level of the Body Tempering Realm?" Li Xun takes a deep look at Lu Changhe, his voice filled with some hidden meaning that no one but Li Xun knew, bringing Lu Changhe back to reality.

He forces a bitter smile and says, "Hehehe, I am, but my talent is not as good as yours. I barely broke through half a month ago. If nothing unexpected happens, this might be the best I can do."

He has been in the sect for four years and has only managed to reach the Tenth Level of Body Tempering Realm through great effort.

In the world of cultivation, the higher the realm, the more difficult the cultivation becomes. From the Tenth Level of Body Tempering Realm to the early stage of Qi Refining Realm, it may seem like just one realm difference on the surface. But even this one realm has proven insurmountable for countless individuals throughout their entire lives.

Lu Changhe himself is unsure if he can break through to the Qi Refining Realm within a year. In his opinion, the possibility of being sent back down the mountain and sent to do some work is even greater.

"Brother Lu, don't be discouraged. Perhaps I can help you," Li Xun says calmly.

"Hmm?" Lu Changhe looks up at the other man in disbelief. "Li Xun, you... you just said..."

"I said I can help you," Li Xun let out a chuckle. He extends his hand and pats the jade box on the table, saying, "You see, this box right here? There is a Spirit Origin Pill inside of it, that Pill can give you a helping hand. If you're lucky, it might even help you step into the Qi Refining Realm."

"Spirit Origin Pill..."  Hearing what is inside the Jade box, Lu Changhe's breathing suddenly becomes rapid.

He naturally knows the value of this kind of pill.

But it's precisely because he knows the value of a Spirit Origin Pill, he feels a sense of unreality.

You see, the value of a single Spirit Origin Pill in the outside world is a hundred Mid-Grade spirit stones!

And as an outer sect disciple, his monthly stipend is only five Low-Grade spirit stones.

A hundred Mid-Grade spirit stones can be exchanged for ten thousand Low-Grade spirit stones. Even if an outer sect disciple like himself were to save up for five years without spending a single stone, it still wouldn't be enough to acquire a Spirit Origin Pill.
