Learning from His Master: A Little Whip Beats a Big Slap

"Congratulations, host, on completing the random quest [The Cataclysm of the Blood Devil Race]. Quest rewards are being distributed..."

After a few breaths, the voice rang out again:

"Congratulations, host! You have obtained: 5000 experience points, 1 Heavenly Treasure Pavilion Purple-Gold Guest Token, 1 upgrade to the Myriad Phenomena Slaughter Array quality, and 1 realm advancement."

Upon hearing the system's notification, Lu Changzhi's expression shifted slightly.

"As expected of Spirit Rank random quest, even the rewards are longer than those of regular random quests."

With a soft voice, Lu Changzhi began to examine the items that were part of the mission rewards.

In the System Space, a token with an extremely grand design and a noble purple-gold color floated Jingjing in mid-air. A pavilion-shaped pattern was engraved on it in relief, which was very eye-catching.

With a thought, Lu Changzhi began to examine the token's description.

[Heavenly Treasure Pavilion Purple-Gold Guest Token]: Created by the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion and issued to powerful individuals of high status, this token is engraved with numerous arrays and restrictions. Wearing it provides numerous enhancements to cultivation and grants free access to all information released by the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

"Heavenly Treasure Pavilion?"

Lu Changzhi thought for a moment.

The jade talisman I obtained from Ancestor Liang mentioned this power, and quite a bit of detail was devoted to its description.

Simply put, this is a very large and powerful force.

However, it is not an ordinary Lineage power or sect holy land power; Myriad Treasures Pavilion is more like a large and powerful business association.

Their main activity is doing business.

Its business covers a wide range, and apart from the continent closest to the Land of the Four Directions, Myriad Treasures Pavilion also has business on other continents.

Of course, compared to doing business, Myriad Treasures Pavilion's greatest influence lies in the fact that it has established a rigorous trading system through countless years of development.

The most important aspect is that Heavenly Treasure Points are used as the standard for evaluating the value of the vast majority of items, and this is widely accepted.

For Lu Changzhi, Heavenly Treasure Points did have a similar meaning to "money" from his previous life.

In the Land of the Four Directions, there are actually two different trading models: cultivators use spirit stones, while ordinary people use gold coins, silver coins, or gold and silver ingots. These are often not interchangeable between cultivators and ordinary people.

As for the outside world, similar situations exist between different continents. Not all continents recognize spirit stones as a medium of exchange. After all, the value of the same spirit stone is completely different on a resource-rich continent and on a resource-poor continent.

In that case, when it comes to exchanges between different continents, the exchange would likely have to revert to the simple barter system.

Heavenly Treasure Pavilion's Heavenly Treasure Points perfectly address this issue.

In other words, although the forms are different, Heavenly Treasure Points are equivalent to "money" used across different continents in the cultivation world.

It is precisely because of all these factors that Heavenly Treasure Pavilion's influence is unparalleled.

"I remember, the Heavenly Treasure Token can be used to store Heavenly Treasure Points."

Lu Changzhi said softly and took the Purple-Gold Token into his hand.

The moment he got his hands on it, Lu Changzhi raised an eyebrow slightly.

"This token is actually resisting a little?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of light appeared, pulling the token from Lu Changzhi's hand and sending it back into the air.

The next moment, the light condensed into a long, thin whip, which then lashed out at the Purple-Gold Token with a series of sharp cracks in Lu Changzhi's eyes.

"This..."

Lu Changzhi watched this scene in silence.

So the rewards were given out too quickly, and they were released before they were properly trained?

About Sanxi later, the system voice sounded:

"Master, it's done, I'm obedient now."

Lu Changzhi gently shook his head:

"Why isn't it a big slap anymore?"

Upon hearing this, the system said:

"Learn from your master, a big beating is no match for a small whip~"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi suddenly thought of a sentence.

Where there is a master, there must be a ruler.

He put aside his thoughts and focused his mind on the Purple-Gold Guest Token.

The next moment, Lu Changzhi's expression became surprised and strange, and at the same time, he was somewhat shocked.

This Purple-Gold Guest Token contains a staggering 80 million Heavenly Treasure Points.

This number might not seem like much at first glance; it's just a number.

However, the purchasing power of this Heavenly Treasure Points is far beyond what any other spirit stones, or even Origin Spirit Stone, could ever achieve.

It's important to understand that in the Land of the Four Directions, even with a vast amount of spirit stones, exchanging them for a Saint King Artifact is an incredibly difficult task. After all, the resource limit in the Land of the Four Directions is limited, unless there's an unexpected discovery.

The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, and other continents outside, would not behave this way.

Furthermore, holders of the Purple-Gold Honored Guest Token can enjoy a 30% discount, further expanding their purchasing power.

"Is this what they mean by 'the army moves, but the supplies arrive first'?"

As he spoke softly, a smile appeared on Lu Changzhi's lips.

I accidentally got something for free...

"Etc."

Lu Changzhi suddenly thought of something and asked:

"System, you didn't steal this, or did you make a fake of it, did you?"

After all, this token is quite special and important. Eighty million appearing out of nowhere could cause any trouble, and dealing with it would likely require a lot of effort...

"Use it with confidence, Master." The system voice announced.

With Tong in charge, there will be no surprises.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi nodded and stopped dwelling on the matter.

Putting the Purple-Gold Token aside for the time being, Lu Changzhi began to examine the other two rewards.

[Myriad Phenomena Slaughter Array Quality Upgrade]: Used to upgrade the quality of the Myriad Phenomena Slaughter Array will increase along with the host's own cultivation level. A new targeted killing mode has also been added. No mental control is required; you don't need to move, the killing array moves automatically. Everyone who has used it says it's great...

"Let the killing formation move on its own?"

Lu Changzhi's eyes lit up.

This is great; it complements my plan to teleport the Blood Devil perfectly, making it the icing on the cake.

In this way, one can avoid having to divert one's attention to control the killing formation and can rest in peace.

When it comes to thoughtfulness, the system ultimately has to step in.

After that, Lu Changzhi looked at the [realm level improved once].

The description of this improvement is remarkably simple and unpretentious.

"Within the Saint Realm, advance one minor realm."

"System, this time it's really short," Lu Changzhi said in surprise.

System: "Master, I..."

Lu Changzhi laughed heartily, then said:

"System, use Realm Advancement once."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a surge of power welling up from within his body. The Origin Spiritual Power that had been gathered in his dantian became even more refined, and the blood, flesh, and meridians of his limbs also improved as the power flowed in.

Time passed slowly, and after a short while, Lu Changzhi slowly opened his eyes, his expression filled with emotion:

"As expected, he directly reached the Middle Stage of the Saint Realm. That's incredibly fast!"
