Contribution points are a type of currency circulating within the Dao Seeking Sect. Whether buying goods, eating in the cafeteria, or trading with fellow disciples, contribution points are required.
In addition, special prizes in the Task Hall also require contribution points.
For example, the most popular but unaffordable "Dao Seeking Sect Sect Master for a Day Experience Tour." As the name suggests, redeeming this reward allows one to be the Sect Master for a day, attend meetings with elders, handle sect affairs, have people call you Sect Master, dominate the scene, and enjoy the privileges of the highest leader of the Five Great Immortal Sects...
There are many benefits, but unfortunately, the required contribution points are too high, and no one has been able to redeem it yet.
It is said that several senior brothers wanted to pool their resources to redeem it once to have a taste of power, but a dispute arose over the question of "who should be the Sect Master." No one was willing to yield, and they ended up fighting, eventually being carried to Pill Cauldron Peak for treatment, attracting a crowd of onlookers.
Now these senior brothers are doing long-term tasks outside and haven't returned to the Dao Seeking Sect for a long time.
For example, the "Medicine King Spirit Liquid." The description states that the Medicine King Spirit Liquid is a precious liquid specially refined by the higher-ups of the Dao Seeking Sect, unique to them. It can be taken internally or applied externally, strengthening the body, enhancing strength, solidifying the divine soul, and consolidating cultivation. Although the contribution points required are not cheap, its sales still rank at the top, and it is extremely popular among senior brothers and sisters.
Taking a sip during a fight guarantees a full recovery of energy and Method Power, and accelerated wound healing. Everyone who has used it says it's good.
Another example is the "Flying Boat Accident Insurance," which can be purchased for just one contribution point.
"Wait, why is there Flying Boat Accident Insurance?" Lu Yang didn't find this term very pleasant.
The senior brother who was issuing the tasks said matter-of-factly: "It's normal. No means of transportation is 100% safe. Even the Flying Boats operated by the Falling Gold Coin Merchant Association can have accidents. Things like bumping into some great power, Flying Boat components malfunctioning and forcing an unsuccessful landing, the captain going on strike demanding a raise... these are all common accidents. Fortunately, there haven't been many fatalities, so don't be alarmed."
"After the president of the Falling Gold Coin Merchant Association discovered that accidents kept happening to Flying Boats, he felt that there was some risk involved, so he proposed that passengers pay a small amount of money to put into a pool. If a Flying Boat has an accident, the merchant association will take a large sum of money from the pool to compensate the passengers."
"This way, if the Flying Boat doesn't have an accident, the passengers only paid a negligible amount of money. If the Flying Boat does have an accident and delays the passengers' affairs, the passengers can also get compensation."
"The president of the merchant association named this model 'Risk Protection,' or 'Insurance' for short, and promoted it widely in other businesses."
"But you don't have to worry. Our Dao Seeking Sect won't disappoint its disciples. We've always been generous when it comes to insurance. When you joined the sect, we already bought various types of insurance for you, including Flying Boat Accident Insurance. The Flying Boat Accident Insurance sold in the reward column increases the amount of compensation."
The senior brother had an expression that said, "We are a righteous sect, unlike those short-lived Demonic Dao sects. We will provide the necessary insurance," which was quite reliable.
"Our cultivation world is developing really fast. We even have things like insurance."
Lu Yang's mouth twitched. In his memory, insurance in his previous life was a product of maritime transport, but he didn't expect that in the cultivation world, it was a product of Flying Boat transport.
He felt that this thing was too unlucky and decided to buy something else instead.
In the cultivation world, one should be a little superstitious.
The senior brother seemed to have heard Lu Yang's thoughts and added, "However, a great power who studies karma has proposed that buying insurance might establish a karmic relationship with risk, thereby increasing the possibility of risk occurring."
"The merchant association flatly denied this possibility, and the two sides argued for a long time without reaching a formal conclusion."
"This topic is very researchable in the cultivation world. If the conclusion you research is that there is a karmic relationship, that great power will favor you. If the conclusion you research is that there is no karmic relationship, the Falling Gold Coin Merchant Association will favor you. It's a guaranteed win."
Lu Yang thought to himself that if he researched and found that there was a karmic relationship, the merchant association would probably want to kill him.
"One contribution point can be exchanged for one hundred low-grade Spirit Stones, and one hundred and twenty low-grade Spirit Stones can be exchanged for one contribution point."
"Blood Drinking Flying Sword, two thousand contribution points. The longer it is soaked in blood, the greater its power. The description doesn't seem like a righteous weapon?"
The senior brother explained from the side, "It doesn't necessarily have to be soaked in human blood. Pig blood, cow blood, and duck blood all work. I heard that the Sichuan hot pot shopkeepers in the sect went to various mountain peaks to complain a few days ago, asking which bastard secretly soaked their Blood Drinking Flying Swords in their duck blood."
"After a thorough search, the culprit has been found. The hot pot boss's punishment was to make him drink a pot of red oil soup base. That scene was really... tsk. I estimate he won't want to eat hot pot for the rest of his life." The senior brother clicked his tongue several times, his expression quite subtle, not knowing what he saw at the time.
Lu Yang continued browsing: "A bottle of Grain Abstinence Pills of any flavor, one contribution point."
"Secret family recipe for barbecue, one hundred contribution points."
"Sword Suspension Formation, twenty-five contribution points. This formation can be engraved on weapons, suspended on the back, eliminating the limitations of the scabbard, making it convenient for use at any time, and it also comes with a protective formation that can protect the sword from wind and sun."
Lu Yang thought about it and felt that this set of formations was quite practical, so he bought it happily.
This was a set of semi-hidden formations condensed in the air. When it landed on the ancient sword, it was like a drop of water evaporating in the air, disappearing completely. The sword quietly floated behind Lu Yang, very handsome.
Lu Yang turned his body, and the ancient sword moved with him, without any lag or delay.
"Good stuff."
"Ten Ox Strength Pill? One hundred contribution points, one thousand contribution points, ten thousand contribution points? A classic work by the Pill Refining Master Wu Ming. After taking it, one can obtain the strength of ten oxen, sweeping across thousands of troops. It can be used from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm."
Lu Yang suspected that if it wasn't refined by that Senior Brother Wu Ming, who was half poison and half pill, the price would be even higher.
However, judging from the description, this pill was really good stuff, with miraculous effects in battle. He could buy one to test its effects.
"Tao Yaoye, I'm sorry, are you buying something with contribution points? I want to borrow five contribution points. I'll return them to you next time I complete a task."
Contribution points can be transferred between people.
Tao Yaoye needed a lot of contribution points to buy something. Five more or less contribution points didn't make much of a difference.
"Okay."
Lu Yang neatly bought a Ten Ox Strength Pill.
The senior brother who issued the task handed Lu Yang a small porcelain bottle containing a golden pill that reflected light slightly in the sunlight, indicating that it was not an ordinary product.
"I said before that we should properly celebrate your Foundation Establishment. I've booked a table at the Hundred Fragrance Tower. Let's go eat. I guarantee it's all your favorite food." Meng Jingzhou laughed heartily and enthusiastically invited Tao Yaoye as well.
"Tao, do you want to come with us?"
Meng Jingzhou, as the second-ranked disciple to enter the sect, was Tao Yaoye's senior brother.
Tao Yaoye felt that although Lu Yang was afraid of heights, full of lies, and poisoned her room without telling her, he was, after all, someone she completed a task with, and should be considered a friend.
"I'll go."
