C114 Stepping on the Dao Palace

"Don't be surprised, the three of us are guarding the mountain gate."

Seemingly noticing Lee Yihong's surprise,ma Shan explained with a smile, "The disciples of the sect have their own tasks. Even a super sect like the academy, which has nurtured countless experts, wouldn't feed so many disciples for nothing."

"Otherwise, not to mention cultivation, the running of the sect would be a problem. Even food, clothing, and living would drag down the entire sect."

Seemingly noticing Lee Yihong's doubt,ma Shan explained slightly, "Other than the Qi Fostering Pill,qi Gathering Pill,qi Cultivating Pill, and other items that are distributed once every 100 days, if you want to get more, you will need the sect's contribution points."

"If you have enough contribution points, you can even exchange for a ninth-grade Xing ranked cultivation technique,minute Subtlety level martial skill, and even domain level cultivation technique and multiplication level martial skill. You can even ask the elders, or even the supreme elders to comprehend and analyze the confusion in cultivation."

"Outer disciples, inner disciples, core disciples, and even some deacons and elders need to contribute in order to obtain the treasures of the sect. The more contribution you have, the better."

"The Contribution Palace of the sect is also located in the First Peak. The reason why the three of us accepted the easiest mission to guard the sect is because we want to have more time to comprehend the mysteries of Heaven and Earth before the deadline, and hope to step into the Nirvana Stage as soon as possible."

There was a determined look on his face. "For me, what I need the most now is to comprehend a deeper layer of the energy of the heaven and earth to verify my body and mind. By combining it with the mysteries of the heaven and earth, once I comprehend the unity of heaven and earth,i will be able to step into the Nirvana Stage."

Ma Shan's voice was filled with determination, as if his heart of seeking the Dao was incomparably strong, and his will was as sharp as a blade.

"So that's how it is."

Lee Yihong's eyes lit up when he heard this. He was shocked by the system of the academy, and he was also shocked by the heart of his cultivation.

It seemed that no matter where it was, the city and the sect all needed resources.

Even if it was a transcendent existence like the academy, when cultivating, it was impossible for it to be as casual and mysterious as the legends described. It was like riding on a crane to cultivate and ask questions.

It was also impossible for one to continuously comprehend the mysteries of the world and achieve a supreme realm just by meditating and comprehending cultivation methods.

Cultivating the martial path required one to take one step at a time and continuously verify one's Dao heart. It also required one to experience life and death. One needed to comprehend cultivation methods, martial techniques, and even the profundities of the world. It also required resources to truly meet the requirements of cultivating the martial path and seeking the Dao.

No matter how talented a person was, it was impossible for him to reach the heavens in a single bound and become a high and mighty existence. Even if it was a demon born from the world, it would still absorb the essence of the world in a single day. After a long period of time, it would be able to cultivate to become a demon.

Even so, in the end, he had to use all sorts of methods to strengthen himself.

Lee Yihong's eyes turned stern as he thought of the Blood Moon Tower.

The Blood Moon Tower seemed to have no control over all assassins, but it was a hidden secret. The handling fee for each mission, even if it was one percent, was an astronomical figure every day.

It had even formed an incomparably huge force. Just by looking at the 1,000 new messages on the Blood Moon ranking list, one could see the tip of the iceberg of the Blood Moon Tower.

Whether it was the major families, sects, or other organizations, or even the Hunyuan Dynasty, all of them needed resources. The major families, even the merchants and residents in the city had to pay a certain amount of tax to the Prefecture. The Prefecture was under the jurisdiction of the Supervising Inspector, and the Supervising Inspector was handed over to the Prefecture. The Prefecture was also governed by the Hunyuan Dynasty.

All of them needed resources.

In the Dao of martial cultivation, besides one's own talent, perception, perseverance and determination, what one needed was resources.

Simply put, one needed enough money. Although money could buy a higher cultivation, without money, not to mention cultivation, a martial artist needed the appetite of a cow every day to be able to drag down an ordinary family.

Back then, Lee Yihong also needed more Qi Fostering Pills to cultivate, so he understood the high commission of the Blood Moon Tower's assassins. In addition, he could also train himself, so he went to the Blood Moon Tower to become an assassin.

Currently, there were more than a million Qi Fostering Pills in the Interspatial Ring, 24,000 Qi Gathering Pills, a bottle of Star Rank Healing Pills, three low-rank spirit weapons, Blood Moon Sword, three Interspatial Ring, and three Blood Moon Tokens that he had yet to exchange for from the Blood Moon Tower.

There was even Cen Yuan's high-grade spirit artifact sword.

This was already comparable to the wealth of a city lord, but Lee Yihong did not feel that he had enough pills.

Now that he had reached the Mid Period of Unshakeable Stage, if he really started cultivating bitterly, he would need dozens or hundreds of Qi Gathering Pills a day. As he condensed his True Qi, his body would become stronger, and his mental energy would become stronger. The amount of Qi Gathering Pills he needed was unimaginable.

"Although I don't lack pills now, and I have already memorized two Ninth Grade Xing ranked cultivation techniques in my mind, if I want to break through to the Nirvana Stage as soon as possible, besides condensing my True Qi,i also need to comprehend the energy of heaven and earth."

Lee Yihong's mind had already reached a mysterious realm, and he had even experienced the feeling of being one with the world once. Therefore, he didn't have any doubts about comprehending the power of the Heavens and Earth.

He only knew a little about the Nirvana Stage.

"Dong, ding ~!"

Suddenly, a beautiful piece of bronze music resounded in Lee Yihong's mind. It was faintly discernible, but it could cleanse one's heart. It was truly wonderful.

"What a beautiful sound. It seems to have the mysteriousness of cleansing one's soul."

"Huala ~!"

Although the two of them were climbing on foot, their speed was extremely fast, comparable to the running of ordinary people. The leaves on the white jade steps were swept up.

However, just as they were about to push away the clouds, Lee Yihong's eyes lit up. The dense fog dispersed, revealing a palace that was decorated with gold and embedded with jade. The eaves of the palace that were carved with beams and paintings were arched. Colorful lights filled the sky, and birds were flying in the sky one after another.

Figures of people were either riding birds or condensing wings of Stellar Energy. Some were even riding blades, gourds, umbrellas, and even cauldrons, flying in the sky.

How spectacular.

Lee Yihong felt as if he had entered a completely different world.

"That's Contribution Palace. It's the liveliest place in the academy. However, since you just arrived at the academy,i'll bring you to Truth Path Reaching Sect to get your inner sect disciple token. Only then can you be considered a disciple of the academy. Only with the token can you walk around the palaces." Ma Shan said with a smile.

"Contribution Palace!"

Lee Yihong saw a grand hall in front of him that was surrounded by dozens of small halls. People were flying in and out of the hall. It was extremely lively. Although everyone's clothes were different, they all had eight trigrams symbols. There was even a 'heaven' symbol in the middle, representing the disciples of the academy.

However, the 'Heaven' character was divided into white, yellow, gold, and black. It was obviously a symbol of different identities.

Inside the Eight Trigrams symbol on the sleeve of the Margin Mountain was a yellow word "Heaven." It seemed to represent the identity of an inner sect disciple.

"There was no music, but it clearly resounded in my mind. It seemed to be a magical sound that echoed in the heaven and earth. As expected of the Blessed and Heavenly Land of the sect."

Lee Yihong was fascinated, as if his soul had been cleansed by the music from the underworld. His wisdom was greatly broadened, and his mind was calm.

"You are talking about the Dao of the Heavens and Earth in the deepest part of the academy."

When he saw Lee Yihong's surprised expression, he explained with a smile on his face. "Rumor has it that the existence of a Saint in our academy makes the heaven and earth happy."

"However, if you listen carefully, you won't be able to hear anything. In a trance, you will be able to hear the mysteriousness lingering in your ears."

"I've heard some elders say that only people with strong minds or close to the Great Dao can hear it more clearly. The more you listen, the more you will feel it. You will benefit a lot from it." Ma Shan said with a smile.

"A strong mind? Someone close to the Great Dao?"

Although Lee Yihong didn't understand, his eyes were filled with a bright light. He was filled with anticipation in his heart. The geniuses of the academy were even more surprised.

"Hua ~!"

Following closely behind Margin Mountain, Lee Yihong entered another majestic, ancient, and desolate palace staircase.

The doors of the palace opened wide, and three large golden words were embedded on it.

"Truth Path Reaching Sect!"

It was majestic and majestic, and it seemed as if one could step on the road as soon as they entered the gate. It made people's soul tremble.

"Hmm? It's him!"

After stepping onto the stairs, Lee Yihong had yet to enter the Truth Path Reaching Sect when he saw a group of people standing on the empty space on the stone steps of the Truth Path Reaching Sect. Although it was deserted, that was only when compared to the Contribution Palace.

At this moment, the number of people queuing at the entrance of the Truth Path Reaching Sect was no less than 200.

However, Lee Yihong instantly saw a black eagle lying on the jade ground among the crowd. He saw a proud and upright black eagle standing beside it with its arms crossed as if it was waiting for a hundred battles.

"Oh!"

It crossed its arms in front of its chest as if it was waiting for a hundred battles. Suddenly, it opened its eyes. Its eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. It instantly saw Lee Yihong, who was carrying a red spear on his back. A trace of disbelief flashed across its eyes.

He even shot out a threatening aura.

There was even a trace of a ferocious smile on his face.

However, it only lasted for a brief moment. In an instant, a smile that was like sunshine appeared on his face as he looked at Lee Yihong, who was slowly walking towards him.
