Chapter 95 The Great Construction of the Dreamlike Little 3rd World
On the fifteenth day, the construction of the sects under the Tang Dynasty government was declared a complete success.
"Ding—The Tang Dynasty Government Sect construction is complete, Sect Contribution +1000! Reward: Special Building: Martial Arts Arena! (Practice spells and formations to improve combat skills)"
Then, on the twentieth day, the construction of Fangcun Mountain was successfully completed.
"Ding—The Fangcun Mountain sect construction is complete, sect contribution points +1000! Reward: Special building: Slanting Moon Seven Star Cave! (Consuming Yin Virtue and Merit Virtue can grant the inheritance of Weapon Forging, Alchemy, Talisman Techniques, and Formation Techniques. Incomplete inheritances can be deduced and improved.)"
Upon seeing this notification, Han Xiaoliu suddenly realized! Wasn't this the "Humanity Tradition Inheritance" function he had been searching for?
It turns out it had been hidden away all along, and would only be activated once Fangcun Mountain was fully completed.
After figuring out the mechanism, he couldn't wait to open the panel to check the remaining building materials and magical artifacts, planning to strike while the iron was hot and create another sect.
Upon checking, it turned out that the material was just one piece short!
Normally he might have taken his time to gather the materials, but at this moment, he was so impatient that he gritted his teeth and simply demolished his house in his own home, forcibly collecting all the materials and throwing them into the construction of the sect in the underworld.
As the last piece of foundation was laid, the system notification sounded pleasantly once again: "Ding—The Underworld Sect construction is complete, Sect Contribution +1000! Reward: Special Building: Yin-Yang Path (Players can accept ghost-catching quests, quest rewards are Yin Virtue!)"
Looking at the introduction of this new building, Han Xiaoliu checked it several times before he dared to be sure: this was not the kind of regular ghost-catching mission in the game, but a real mission to capture powerful wild ghosts from the outside world and throw them into the Yin-Yang path to exchange for Yin virtue!
Moreover, the higher the cultivation level of the ghost, the more merit they bestow upon it.
Clearly, this is a benefit specifically prepared by the system for players from other sects, since they don't have the professional ghost-catching tools and skills that the actual disciples of the underworld possess.
Having secured construction rewards from three major sects in succession, Han Xiaoliu has made a fortune.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, turned around and plunged into the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, ready to take advantage of this wave of benefits to greatly improve the cultivation of his support and summoned spirits!
At the same time, several Foundation Establishment cultivators, under Han Baibai's frantic encouragement, marched in a large force towards the training ground.
After a day of exhilarating fighting, everyone was collectively teleported to the underworld.
When they arrived at Yin-Yang Path, they found it was just a place to submit ghost-catching quests, and their interest waned. They turned around and flew to Fangcun Mountain instead.
But once they truly experienced the powerful function of "learning the four major lineages in one day", they became completely unstoppable!
Everyone eagerly drew upon their limited good karma and began learning various abilities.
Three days later, a flash of light appeared in front of the Slanting Moon Three Stars Cave, and Han Li left the learning space with a regretful expression.
"Sigh... I haven't accumulated enough good karma!" Han Li slapped his thigh and muttered to himself, his face full of regret. "Otherwise, I could have practiced the formation a little longer! This inheritance space is just too heaven-defying! Next time I come, I'll have to prepare much more good karma!"
At this point, Green Bubble suddenly recalled what he had said when he captured the Gold-Eating Insects, and he quickly summoned Little Green and asked, "Little Green, you said before that the Gold-Eating Insects are a good thing, that they can be exchanged for good karma, right?"
Green Bubble's clear voice rang out: "That's right! It really is a treasure; it can be exchanged for a lot of merit points!"
Han Li's eyes lit up instantly.
What he lacks most right now is good karma and merit, since all the good things in the Dream World are like money-devouring beasts!
At the flag pavilion in front of Han Xiaoliu's residence in Jianye City, Han Li impatiently took out a pair of Gold-Eating Insects and threw them into it.
"Ding—Origin of the Devouring Law from the outside world has been collected, Merit +5000!"
"Ding—The Gold-Eating Insect meets the requirements for a rare summoning spirit and can be converted into a guild summoning spirit. A rare summoning spirit, the Gold-Eating Insect, has been added to Han Li's territory!"
Inside the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Han Xiaoliu was directing Bubble to lead the allied forces in attacking the monsters when a message suddenly appeared above his head: "Merit +5000". Immediately afterward, a system notification sounded in his mind: [Gathered external Devouring Law, the Tangyuan Cultivation Quest activated!]
Looking at the "Yin-Yang constitution" required for Tangyuan on the panel, Han Xiaoliu immediately sent a private message to Han Baibai: "Good daughter, when we get back, can you get some Yunlu's blood?"
Han Baibai replied instantly, her tone haughty: "Why should I? What benefit do I get?"
Han Xiaoliu chuckled: "I'll give you another little sister!"
"Pah! This is clearly a reward for you!" Han Baibai retorted without any politeness. "I'm about to form my core! After I do, I want to take people to play in the Dreamlike Minor Realms, okay?"
Han Xiaoliu's brow twitched, and his heart skipped a beat: Could this girl be planning to bring Yunlu in? Absolutely not!
He quickly probed, "Which one do you want to bring in?"
Han Baibai said confidently, "I'm all grown up now! I want to take on apprentices, and even younger brothers! Daddy, please agree!"
Han Xiaoliu pondered for a moment, then compromised, "Alright then, as long as their cultivation level doesn't exceed the Core Formation stage, you can bring in whoever you want!"
"Can't I bring my maternal grandfather in to play?" Han Baibai asked, pushing his luck.
"Take him! Take him! If you dare to take him, I dare to lock him up and make him reflect on his actions for hundreds of years!" Han Xiaoliu replied through gritted teeth.
"Hmph! Fine, I won't take you. I'll go find my own apprentices to play with!" With the deal done, Han Baibai happily began dreaming of taking on apprentices.
Having won over his sister, Han Xiaoliu quickly pulled up Han Li's private chat window, her tone extremely obsequious: "Brother Li~"
Han Li coldly tossed out three words: "Get lost, speak like a human being."
Han Xiaoliu immediately changed his tune, pleading pitifully, "Could you give me a few pairs of gold-devouring insects? Thanks, boss!"
Han Li retorted irritably, "How's your cultivation of the Golden Thunder Bamboo going?"
"I've cultivated three seedlings, and I've grown dozens of saplings in total," Han Xiaoliu reported truthfully. "However, I'll be flying back to Tianxing City soon, so it won't be convenient to continue cultivating them."
"That's perfect!" Han Li's eyes lit up. "I was planning to go to Tianxing City too. Give me the Golden Thunder Bamboo and the Little Green Bottle, and I'll cultivate them!"
"Received! Where to trade?"
"Go home, I'll be waiting for you there."
The transaction was completed smoothly, and the two of them packed up their things with satisfaction before heading to the training grounds they had long yearned for!
On the forty-eighth day, everyone returned to Han Xiaoliu's home.
But as soon as they landed, seeing the empty home space in front of them, without even a decent house, everyone's expressions instantly became quite interesting!
Longkui's beautiful eyes widened, her eyes slightly reddening, and she stamped her foot with a pained expression: "Young Master... has our house been demolished? How did it become like this!"
Han Baibai, on the other hand, was completely different. She showed no sympathy whatsoever. Instead, she covered her mouth and giggled, searching around the open space like a mischievous little monkey, her face full of schadenfreude.
Looking at this group of lively characters, Han Li shook his head helplessly, cleared his throat, and said loudly, "Alright, alright, that's the situation for now. We won't continue with the banquet this time! But... next time, I'll arrange a new home for all of you in Chang'an City. From now on, we'll hold our gatherings at hotels in Chang'an City!"
These words immediately caused a stir in the entire venue!
"Yay!! Long live the boss!!"
"Young Master, you're so kind~"
Even Shen Gongbao, who is usually taciturn and always has a stern face, couldn't help but smile wildly, revealing an extremely rare, honest and simple smile.
After the cheers subsided, Han Xiaoliu's expression turned serious, and he clapped his hands, saying, "Alright, now I'll assign a few tasks!"
He turned to Zi Ling and solemnly instructed, "Junior Sister, when you return, have the Miaoyin Sect increase the order volume of architectural artifacts, especially top-tier ones—the more the better!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than he subtly pulled Zi Ling into a private chat and quietly sent her a message: "Junior Sister, after we get out, have your mother buy up as many fragments of the Void Heaven as possible at a high price, at all costs!"
Upon hearing this, a shrewd glint flashed in Zi Ling's eyes. She nodded vigorously, understanding perfectly, and a confident smile appeared on her lips.
After instructing Zi Ling, Han Xiaoliu pointed to the others and said, "The rest of you, pair up and go collect various resources..."
"Wait a minute."
Hong Fu stepped forward, gently waving her hand to interrupt him, her delicate brows slightly furrowed as she said, "Now is not the right time to send them out. Song Meng, Wei Niang, and Yu Niangzi all basically need to go into seclusion to form their cores. Besides Xue Qi, Yuan Yao, and Yan Li, even your junior sister is preparing to establish her foundation this time."
Upon hearing this, Han Xiaoliu nodded thoughtfully: "In that case, let them break through first. After they break through, they can arrange their own time to collect as many resources as possible to exchange for merit."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
They had heard countless stories about the benefits of good deeds done in secret, from those who had experienced them firsthand, and naturally knew how important they were.
