God rewards those who work hard: Awakening Daily Practice Settlement

"Anything else?"

They had finished talking about everything they needed to talk about. Seeing that Pei Daoye hadn't left yet, Leng Huang couldn't help but look over, thinking that he had something important to report.

Pei Daoye looked sincere and rubbed his hands: "Well... I suffered a lot in order to save you this time, really... I only had so much talisman paper left and I used it all up."

Only five, six, seven or eight pictures were used... isn't that a lot?
"..."

Leng Huang was dumbfounded.

He waved his hand and said, "I'll compensate you. Is fifty enough?"

够？
Listen.

People say no.

"Honestly, we are in the same boat. Can the Seventeenth Palace use some of its magic for me?"

In response to Pei Daoye's words, Leng Huang rubbed his forehead helplessly and could only explain:
"Under normal circumstances, this would definitely not work. The rules of the Wanxiang Palace are more than you can imagine... But now, let me think... What type of sword technique do you need? Maybe I can think of another way."

"Sword techniques? No, I want to see everything. My training depends entirely on my eyes." Pei Daoye looked over with a strange look.

It's like saying: We are in the same boat, you can't be unable to handle such a small matter, right?
Leng Huang: “…”

The room fell silent for a moment.

She thought about it and said, "Even if I want to use the treasure house of Wanxiang Palace, I have to apply..."

But Pei Daoye wouldn't listen to her commonplace rhetoric.

After all, we are in the same boat. If you can't even help with this small favor, then what's the point of helping each other? I'm doing you a favor by not breaking this boat!
Leng Huang added: "But we in the Seventeenth Palace have some methods that have not been returned yet. If you want to read them, it's best to finish reading them in the next two days... If nothing unexpected happens, people from the headquarters will come over tomorrow for routine inquiries, and they will take these methods away according to regulations."

Pei Daoye stood up immediately after hearing this.

What are you talking about?

"Come on, take me there."

Leng Huang seemed to be at a loss as to what to do with him, so he had to stand up.

……

The two of them actually felt like they were having an affair, and they quietly avoided everyone's sight and went to the dark room.

"Don't tell anyone about what happened today, otherwise it will be bad for both you and me."

“I know the stakes.”

Pei Daoye said this, but he didn't take it seriously.

Seeing that he knew the severity of the situation, Leng Huang used a secret method to unlock the formation and brought Pei Daoye in.

"...There are five high-grade methods on the top shelf. There are twelve medium-grade methods on the middle shelf...I don't think you care about the low-grade methods, do you?"

Leng Huang said as he pointed the way to Pei Daoye.

Pei Daoye was actually a little surprised: "That's all?"

"Is this not enough? The top-grade methods are high-level methods that even Jindan and Yuanying will fight for." Leng Huang's voice became much higher because of his anger.

If there wasn't a formation in the dark room, it would have been heard by people outside by now.

Pei Daoye didn't know why she reacted so strongly at first.

But thinking that this also indirectly reflects her authority as the master of the Seventeenth Palace...I can't help but find it funny.

As expected... no matter how strong you are, you still need to save face.

"I'll look for it. If you're busy, go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about me. I'll leave after I'm done."

"It's okay. I just want to sort out these books."

The two people looked at each other with ulterior motives, but tacitly did not reveal each other's thoughts.

Leng Huang was naturally worried that Pei Daoye would steal these skills by some strange coincidence, which would bring trouble to himself.

But Pei Daoye didn't have such thoughts.

He went to the bookshelf and took the five top-grade manuals.

"The True Art of Candle Fire" is a fire-attributed method that is most suitable for spirits with fire attributes.

"Jintan Corpse Driving Secret Method", a method of refining zombies...

"Is there anyone in our Seventeenth Palace who is practicing the corpse-refining method?"

Pei Daoye looked back.

Leng Huang heard this, but it was no big deal: "The assassins in Wanxiang Palace are capable of all kinds of things, not all of them come from big sects like you."

"..."

Pei Daoye had nothing to say.

He was actually quite interested in this method of refining zombies. It was nothing more than refining corpses into zombies and then controlling them. Although they could not exert their peak combat power, they could still be a helper.

"You are reading the 'Jintan Corpse Driving Secret Method', right? Although it is a top-grade method, it is actually an unorthodox method... Firstly, it is easy to be attacked by the so-called righteous way outside, and secondly, controlling the corpse requires extremely strong spiritual power, and if you are not careful, you will suffer backlash."

In Leng Huang's opinion, practicing this unorthodox method is not worthwhile: "The cultivators of this kind that I have seen can generally only control one or two corpses. If they can control more...they are gone."

Pei Daoye did not comment.

He has refined his spirit for the sixth time, and the power of his spiritual awareness cannot be judged by ordinary people.

If you can practice this method, it’s not bad.

If a cultivator who has refined his spirit for the second time can control two zombies, then a cultivator who has refined his spirit for the sixth time... could it be six?

If I could control six Nascent Souls in the future... wouldn't I be able to walk around in Central Continent?
Thinking of this, Pei Daoye made a decision in his heart.

"just asking."

Although he said this to Leng Huang, he secretly memorized this method in his heart...

Although I cannot practice for the time being.

But with his current powerful spiritual power, it is no problem for him to recite it by heart.

Leng Huang looked at him suspiciously as he flipped through the book. He thought Pei Daoye was fooling him and wanted to say something, but in the blink of an eye he saw Pei Daoye put the spell back on the shelf.

Only then did I feel that Pei Daoye was not stupid.

"Of all the corpse ghost cultivators I've seen, if they practiced this method, I can't say all of them, but at least 90% of them would suffer backlash... I'm not warning you, I just want to kindly remind you that when practicing... haste makes waste."

"Thank you."

Pei Daoye said this as he picked up the third book of Dharma.

It's a thunder technique.

Follow the same method and memorize it.

The fourth method seemed familiar just by looking at the name. Pei Daoye took a closer look and realized that this was not the "Divinely Bestowed Miraculous Lotus" that Silver Wolf had mentioned.

"Why do I remember that this seems to be the method of the Thirteenth Palace?"

Leng Huang saw him looking at her, her eyes remained unchanged: "So what? I want to borrow it, who dares to stop me?"

Pei Daoye gave a thumbs up.

Women with power are really attractive.

I felt that this method really was effortless.

Write it down immediately.

As for the practice of the Heart Sutra, it did not catch his eye. To practice this method, he had to give up his own cultivation first... The Hunyuan Power he was practicing now was extremely powerful. If he gave up his own martial arts, he would be crazy.

Seeing that Pei Daoye had finished looking at all the top-grade methods and then started looking at the mid-grade methods, Leng Huang lost interest.

"These five top-grade techniques are not pleasing to your eyes? You have very high standards."

Pei Daoye looked calm and said, "I told you, my cultivation depends entirely on my liking for you."

While speaking, he silently recorded the intermediate-grade sword technique in his hand, thinking of incorporating it into the "Great Thunder Breaking Evil Sword Formation" when the time comes.

Since it can be integrated...

He wanted to see how powerful his swordsmanship would become after integrating all the sword techniques.

Leng Huang naturally didn't know what he was thinking, so she showed a noncommittal expression, put down the box in her hand, stood up and said, "Then you can take your time to read it. You can't take these methods away. As for the others... I don't have anything else to tell you."

"I see."

Pei Daoye suddenly said, "By the way, Palace Master, don't we have any forbidden techniques here?"

Leng Huang was about to leave when she was stunned by Pei Daoye's words. She said uncertainly, "Do you still want to practice forbidden techniques?"

"Just to see and get a feel for it." Pei Daoye made up a story, "You see why my swordsmanship is so strong? It's because I've seen other people perform forbidden techniques and got some experience... Using Qi and blood to maintain balance and avoid backlash..."

What he said is clear and logical.

Leng Huang stroked his forehead.

She suddenly felt that this Jian Jiu... no, this spy from the Xuanyin Sect really did not play by the rules.

He pondered for a while and said, "Jian Jiu... Logically speaking, this is the first time we meet, and we shouldn't talk too much. But if Your Majesty knew about this, he would definitely punish me for ignoring you."

"?"

Pei Daoye had a face full of question marks.

Suddenly I had a bad feeling.

Leng Huang said seriously: "Forbidden techniques are more terrifying than unorthodox methods. Anyway, those who I have seen who do not believe in evil and practice forbidden techniques have never had a good ending. The lucky ones can live for ten or eight years, while the unlucky ones may explode and die after practicing for only two days."

"..."

Pei Daoye took a deep breath. Good, good, good.

I knew it……

As expected, I'll be lectured as soon as I mention forbidden techniques.

"I……"

"I understand, Jian Jiu, I know you want to become stronger as soon as possible, but don't be impatient." Leng Huang was worried that if Pei Daoye died, Shangguan Xiangling would definitely not let him go easily.

She was even secretly annoyed that she shouldn't have impulsively brought Pei Daoye here.

But she was secretly annoyed but now she was feeling lucky... If she hadn't impulsively brought Pei Daoye here to choose a method, she probably wouldn't have known that this guy still wanted to practice forbidden techniques.

"Forbidden techniques, you can't practice them. Just be obedient, okay?"

"?"

Pei Daoye was speechless: "Palace Master, if I say that I really just want to see if you believe it?"

"Ah."

"...Okay, I knew you wouldn't believe it."

"Sword Nine."

"Shh, I understand. Any more will be annoying."

"..."

Leng Huang curled the corner of his mouth.

This was the first time anyone dared to speak to her like this.

However, if she knew that Pei Daoye was not only like this in front of her, but also disrespectful to Shangguan Xiangling, she would probably be shocked at this moment.

After Leng Huang left, Pei Daoye looked at the method in front of him and began to fall into deep thought.

I didn't expect everyone's reaction to the forbidden technique to be so strong.

As for the secret techniques with lower backlash, he looked down on them at the moment.

Only truly powerful forbidden techniques can unleash power to its fullest extent.

Since there is none in the Seventeenth Palace, I will go to the Ghost King's Palace to check later...

Pei Daoye had a plan in mind, and he read the subsequent methods much faster. There were a total of three sword techniques, one soul technique, and three formations.

Carrying these memories, Pei Daoye left quickly, and before leaving he did not forget to go to Leng Huang to beg for alms.

As a result, the woman seemed to have guessed his purpose and disappeared long ago. Pei Daoye was so angry that he wanted to curse her.

This woman definitely did it on purpose!
The fifty pieces of talisman paper that were promised before are nowhere to be found.

[What's the point of being so pretty! Isn't your heart still evil? ]

……

"Palace Master, Jian Jiu has left."

In another secret room, the man in black knelt on one knee.

Leng Huang stroked his forehead, still wondering whether Pei Daoye had practiced forbidden techniques.

She waved.

The man in black was about to leave.

Leng Huang thought of something: "Take fifty pieces of talisman paper from the inventory, and another twenty sword gallstones for Jian Jiu... and remove them from my account."

"Yes."

……

Pei Daoye was a little surprised by the package in front of him, but the man in black had disappeared.

quite a while.

He came to his senses.

Smiling softly.

"This woman...really is."

A wave of his hand.

He took away the package containing the sword talisman and sword stone, and disappeared immediately.

As for the subsequent hunting of the Ghost King's Palace, he did not take the initiative to participate.

For him, cultivation is the only thing.

Now that the benefits have been obtained, it is time to return to the mountain gate.

However, when Pei Daoye thought of Leng Huang's speculation about Xuanshan Sect from Wanxiang Palace, his heart sank.

"Will Xuanshan Sect really be defeated?"

Climb the stairs to the mountain gate.

In the distance came the cheerful laughter of groups of young disciples, which looked really youthful in the afterglow.

When these people saw Pei Daoye, they all stopped and saluted.

"I've met senior brother."

Pei Daoye nodded slightly in greeting and then left.

Did not return to the inner courtyard.

Instead, he went to look for Senior Brother Ma who was still working in the outer courtyard.

Suddenly, a senior from the inner courtyard came to the outer courtyard. Everyone's expression became a little nervous, and more people had fiery eyes.

Brother Ma, who was at the center of everyone's heated attention, suddenly felt very proud.

He said something to Pei Daoye in surprise, but he couldn't help glancing at everyone, feeling his own reputation rising invisibly.

"A Pei, why are you here?"

He no longer called Pei Daoye "Junior Brother" at this moment.

It's not good after all.

So they called him A Pei, just like calling Ling Suzong Suzong.

"I just happened to be passing by here, and came to have a drink with my brother."

"That's great. Wait for me for a moment. I just need to hand over my shift."

After Senior Brother Ma handed over his shift to the other disciples in the hall, he left with Pei Daoye amid the envious gazes of everyone.

Senior Brother Ma was so excited that he wanted to shout out loud.

This was a treatment he had never had in all his thirty years of practice.

This was also something he had never thought about when he entered Xuanshan Gate.

When I first entered the mountain gate, I did fantasize about being able to get close to some big shot so that I wouldn't be bullied by my fellow brothers.

It just increases with age.

That fantasy had long since vanished.

What Senior Brother Tajima never expected was that one day he would be taken care of in this way.

Of course, he accompanied Pei Daoye to eat, drink and have fun with sincerity...Oh, it's a pity that Pei doesn't like to have fun.

Inside the restaurant.

Many people were discussing matters concerning the Wanxiang Palace and the Ghost King's Palace.

Pei Daoye also heard it, but remained calm.

Most of the comments are "dog-eat-dog" and there is not much real news.

Senior Brother Ma whispered, "I have also heard about the incident at the Wanxiang Palace and the Ghost King's Mansion. It is said that the main peak has sent people to negotiate."

"Negotiate? Why not just kill them directly?" Pei Daoye looked over.

Senior Brother Ma shook his head: "Wanxiang Palace has grievances with us, but they are not so public. It is said that the purpose of the negotiation is to make Wanxiang Palace, the Seventeenth Palace, leave the country."

"What if the Seventeenth Palace doesn't leave?"

"Not leaving? Hehe, doesn't this give the Mountain Gate a reason to take action?"

Senior Brother Ma chuckled.

Pei Daoye also gave a forced smile.

I used to think that once I entered the Hall of All Aspects, I would have more options.

But I didn't expect that these Seventeenth Palace... are now being attacked from both sides and are not having a good time.

Fortunately, the only person who knew her "identity" besides Shangguan Xiangling was Leng Huang.

Let’s put the issue of identity aside for now.

Next, Pei Daoye felt that he needed to modify his position in Wanxiang Palace.

[Being just a gold medal killer is like floating on the waves... This is definitely not what I want! ]

For the first time, something called ambition grew in his heart. (End of this chapter)
