My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 161 – First Trial of Mountain Decision

Chapter 161: Chapter 150: First Trial of Mountain Decision

“Don’t worry about the amount of contribution. Just select the artifacts and techniques you like,”

Li Fan advised to Su Xiaomei and Xiao Heng, who had a struggling look on their faces, despite having previously mentioned the need for careful calculations.

They sighed a sigh of relief, and after a little while, they finally picked out what they needed from the expansive list of materials in the Tianxuan Mirror.

Su Xiaomei chose the Foundation Establishment Strange Object “Flame

Feather,” a top-grade Earth’s Oddity worth six thousand contribution points.

The technique she picked was “Heart Rage Fiery Flame Gong,” a superior substitute for “Heart Rage Fiery Yeung Gong,” priced at six thousand contribution points.

Xiao Heng’s chosen Foundation Establishment Strange Object was the “Cloud Stele,” another top-grade Earth’s Oddity priced at five thousand five hundred contribution points.

And the technique he selected was the “Blossom Gale Secret Technique,” costing five thousand five hundred contribution points.

After both of them made their selections, they obediently gathered around Li Fan, eagerly watching him make the payment.

The total was twenty three thousand contribution points.

Even with possession of over ninety thousand contribution points, Li Fan still found his heart skipping a beat at the expense.

He couldn’t blame He Zhenghao for being short-sighted; cultivation was simply too expensive.

Investing in a Foundation Establishment cultivator required at least ten thousand contribution points.

Li Fan recalls that the compensation for guarding the Misthaven Islands is only several hundred to two thousand contribution points per year.

Even with some extra income, it would take at least two to three years to accumulate over ten thousand contribution points.

Who would willingly give away their hard -earned wealth acquired over such a long period of time?

“Indeed, ‘The Mountain-Seating Secret’ isn’t for ordinary people to cultivate,” Li Fan mused, buying the four items with a sigh.

In the blink of an eye, he was left with sixty seven thousand contribution points from his original ninety thousand, plus the previous balance of one thousand one hundred points.

He now had only sixty eight thousand one hundred contribution points left.

“You two, start your Foundation Establishment here, I’ll protect you,” he instructed, handing the items over to them.

They agreed joyously and trustingly. Su Xiaomei and Xiao Heng immediately started their Foundation Establishment retreat in the room.

With the Formless Killing Machine targeting them, Li Fan used this opportunity to further ponder the process of Foundation Establishment.

Although he had already achieved Foundation Establishment in this lifetime, Li Fan’s ultimate goal was not just to build his Tao Foundation with the Earth’s Oddities like the Ocean Pearl.

Hence, understanding Foundation Establishment was always beneficial for him.

Indeed, their talents were extraordinary.

Merely a day later, with the formation of a fiery bird’s phantom in Su Xiaomei’s Dantian, she successfully advanced to the Foundation Establishment phase.

At the same time, Li Fan felt a sudden surge of pure cultivation within himself.

And this didn’t disappear after the first surge; it kept growing like a stream in the mountains, albeit at a much slower rate that was almost negligible.

Exhilarated after her breakthrough, Su Xiaomei affably stood by Li Fan, waiting for Xiao Heng’s Foundation Establishment to complete, without making any sound.

Half a day later, a blue cloud formed, marking Xiao Heng’s formal entry to the Foundation Establishment phase.

However, the cultivation feedback from “The Mountain-Seating Secret” was only a fifth of what it was with Su Xiaomei, and the subsequent increase was virtually nonexistent.

After the breakthrough, Xiao Heng’s face was filled with joy.

But soon after, he calmed down and bowed to Li Fan in respect.

Li Fan nodded in acceptance and then introduced him and Su Changyu to the others.

Su Changyu and the Yin sisters were genuinely delighted to see both Xiao Heng and Li Fan step into the Foundation Establishment Phase. They congratulated them sincerely.

But Zhao Erbao was even more stunned, his eyes wide open as they darted back and forth between Li Fan and the duo. His gaze was full of disbelief.

After all the commotion, Li Fan instructed, “Our current accommodation is still too crude. Next, all of you need to band together and establish a real Cave Mansion at Moon Lake for everyone’s cultivation.”

“I will give Xiao Heng five thousand contribution points to buy any necessary materials from the Small Tianxuan Mirror.”

“I have to go on a trip soon, but hopefully, upon my return, I will see the Cave Mansion fully constructed.”

“For anything you can’t resolve, you can go consult my friend who is in the stone chamber beneath the lake.”

Everyone took the order with a cheer.

After transferring five thousand contribution points to Xiao Heng, Li Fan spent another twenty or so days returning to Yuandao City.

He entered the Tianxuan Mirror, spending ten thousand contribution points to activate the cultivation aid mode.

He then focused on cultivating “The Mountain-Seating Secret”.

Time quickly passed, and in the blink of an eye, a hundred days had gone by.

No time wasted, Li Fan emerged from his seclusion to inspect his cultivation progress.

The result took him by surprise.

Because the cultivation points he gained from the past hundred days, were a mere double of the points Su Xiaomei had fed back during her breakthrough.

“No, it’s not even double. In these hundred days, the cultivation levels of Su Xiaomei and Xiao Heng must have improved. So, the points I gained, apart from my own cultivation, also included a small part of feedback from ‘The Mountain-Seating Secret.”‘

“As expected, when Su Xiaomei reaches increasingly higher realms, feedback cultivation points will keep pouring in. It should only stop when they reach the peak of the Foundation Establishment Phase.”

“A preliminary conclusion is that given the same amount of contribution points, what I earned from helping others significantly surpasses what I got from my own cultivation. But this process is very slow. Investing in a person with average talent might take nearly a hundred years to see full returns.” “Investing in genius talents with unique abilities can significantly shorten this

period. ”

“However, no matter what, imparting ‘The Mountain-Seating Secret’ always pays off.”

“So it seems, the fastest way to improve when I have enough contribution points is to cultivate myself in the Tianxuan Mirror and impart ‘The

Mountain-Seating Secret’ while reaping the fruits of my investment.”

“Unfortunately, this consumes too much contribution points, and even with two hundred thousand, it wouldn’t last long. It’s not a long-term plan.”

“To maximize the contribution points’ value, I should completely refrain from using the Tianxuan Mirror for my own cultivation. All contribution points should be invested in geniuses, and I should rely on the returned cultivation points from ‘reaping the fruits of my investment’ to improve my realm.”

“But true geniuses are rare. In my two lives, I have only come across two or three.’

“The cultivation speed is certainly not as fast as using all the assistance for cultivation.”

Li Fan paused his thoughts, then thought of Xiao Heng’s situation.

“Paid imparting of the law also results in cultivation feedback. Moreover, if the contribution points can be safely reclaimed, isn’t it like making a huge profit without any capital involved?”

“And if I charge a little more fee…”

“Certainly, there must be a lot of cultivators who are facing bottlenecks and are eager for a breakthrough, willing to pay a trivial price to acquire techniques or strange items in advance.”

“I have the Formless Killing Machine, so I’m not afraid of these cultivators escaping. Su Xiaomei and Xiao Heng, my two big protectors, can go and collect debts from those who don’t repay in time, without me having to do it personally.”

“And if I come across real geniuses, I can provide it for free…”

“Good! Very good!”

As Li Fan thought more and more, he became increasingly excited and couldn’t help but blurt out.

‘”The Mountain-Seating Secret’ really is an excellent technique!”

“Such a brilliant technique, Daoist He, you didn’t know how to utilize it, what a waste!”
