Chapter 178 How to Quickly Gain Merit

Tianji Treasure House can not only buy, but also sell.

No matter what it is, as long as it is valuable, it can be sold to Tianji Treasure House.

But this is a very uneconomical behavior. Lu Ye once tried to sell the Panshan Knife to Tianji Treasure House, but it was worth 50 points of merit.

You should know that he spent 138 points of merit to buy this spiritual knife. The price difference is more than double?

The most valuable thing he can sell is the scale armor he got from Longquan. He tried it a few days ago, and this thing is worth more than 8,000 points of merit.

But Lu Ye will definitely not sell this thing. The power contained in it is of great benefit to Amber and himself. Now every time he practices, he will place this scale armor in the spirit gathering array to slowly stimulate its energy.

These days, Lu Ye obviously feels that his physical strength has been strengthened again.

After swallowing the blood line in it several times, Amber has become more and more majestic.

Less valuable than the scales is the Barrier Breaking Fruit, each Barrier Breaking Fruit is worth 500 merit points, this thing cannot be sold, it is extremely useful for cultivators to open their minds, Lu Ye will use it in the future.

Moreover, he has handed the two Barrier Breaking Fruits to the second senior sister, who is not only a medical practitioner, but also an alchemist. She can refine the Barrier Breaking Fruit with other medicinal materials to make Barrier Breaking Pills to maximize its effect.

Regarding the value of Barrier Breaking Pills, Lu Ye once checked in the Tianji Treasure House, each one requires 300 to 400 merit points, and a Barrier Breaking Fruit in the hands of the second senior sister can at least refine four or five Barrier Breaking Pills.

"No other way?" Lu Ye continued to ask while eating the food that the second senior sister picked up.

"Declare war!" Li Baxian smiled slightly: "Declare war on the forces of the Wanmo Ridge camp, and prepare a large amount of merit in advance. If you win, this merit will be yours."

Lu Ye's face darkened. Now he is the only disciple in the entire Bixue Sect. Who can he declare war to? There are several Wanmo Ridge sects nearby. Let's not talk about whether they will accept his declaration of war. Even if they do, he has no hope of winning. Besides, he has no capital to declare war. If he wants to win merit from others, he must have merit in the early stage.

"Why don't you go to participate in the Lingxi Town Defense War?"

Li Baxian had just finished speaking when Shui Yuan glared at him fiercely.

"Junior brother can't stay in the garrison all the time. Senior sister, you and the old man should not think about protecting him all the time. You can protect him for a while, but can you protect him for a lifetime? Bixue Sect disciples should not be kept in a greenhouse. It will be good for him to go out and open his eyes early."

Shui Yuan was silent and picked up another dish for Lu Ye.

Lu Ye looked around and saw that the second sister was silent, so he asked: "What is the Lingxi Defense War?"

Li Baxian explained to him: "In about half a month, the sect grade assessment will come out. Generally, after each grade assessment, there will be this Lingxi Defense War..."

Through Li Baxian's explanation, Lu Ye slowly understood what the Lingxi Defense War was.

The rules over the years have been that before the sect grade assessment, all sects, big and small, will be very stable, because if there are any inappropriate actions at this time, it may cause the sect grade to fall, which is a responsibility that no one can afford.

But the Lingxi battlefield cannot be so peaceful all the time. The confrontation between the two camps is destined to make the two sides of the cultivators dislike each other, so every time the sect grade assessment is completed, it will become extremely lively.

The Lingxi Defense War came into being. This is the operation of the heavenly secret, and no one can resist it. The heavenly secret seems to be using this method to intensify the confrontation between the two camps.

After the sect's grade is assessed, the garrison commanders of the various sects can sign up to participate in the battle, using the blessing of the Tianji Pillar in their own sect's garrison as a bargaining chip to enter an unknown small space to participate in the fight. If they are killed, the blessing will be taken away by the killer.

The blessing of the Tianji Pillar can make the spiritual energy of the garrison more concentrated, and each blessing can increase it by 10%. Lu Ye had tried to spend merit to buy it before. The first one required 500 merit points, which was not much, but after asking Li Baxian, this kind of blessing became more expensive the later.

Therefore, those with strong strength can win a large number of blessings in the Lingxi garrison battle. If they bring them back to the sect's garrison, the spiritual energy of the garrison can be greatly improved.

Not only that, in that unknown small space, there are many strange treasures, such as the Barrier Breaking Fruit, which is rarely seen in the outside world.

It can be said that the Lingxi Garrison Battle held every three years is a grand event for various sects, and the sects of the entire Jiuzhou basically participate in it.

After listening to this, Lu Ye couldn't help but be fascinated. He was still thinking about how to improve the spiritual energy in the garrison. If it hadn't cost too much merit, he would have bought a blessing. He never thought that there was such a method.

However, since it was the Lingxi garrison battle, naturally only the garrison commander and the deputy garrison commander could participate. Each sect could only send two people. You should know how many sects there are in Jiuzhou. If each sect has two people, the number of participants is also extremely large.

"But fourth senior brother, I'm only at the fifth level. At most, I can kill a seventh level. How can I be a match for the garrison commanders of the core circle sects?" Lu Ye shook his head slowly. Although he was very interested in this Lingxi garrison battle, he still had self-knowledge.

Fourth senior brother Li Baxian was the deputy garrison commander of Danxin Sect. If a person like him also participated in the garrison battle, how could Lu Ye, who is at the fifth level, be competitive?

Li Baxian said: "Although the Heaven's Secret is cruel, it will not ask you to die in vain. It will maintain a balance in its own way. Although the Lingxi Town Defense Battle is in the same small space, there is an invisible suppression in that place. The further you go out, the stronger the suppression will be. For example, if I enter that small space, I will only appear in the most central area. If I go out, my cultivation will be gradually suppressed. On the contrary, if you go in with your cultivation, you will only appear at the outermost area, and the people you meet will not have too high cultivation. Therefore, participating in the Lingxi Town Defense Battle is not the higher the cultivation, the better. The higher the cultivation, the stronger the enemies you will meet. Of course, the cultivation of the general town guard must be at least the seventh level, and the deputy may be the seventh level or the sixth level."

"There is such a good thing... then there is no problem!" Lu Ye became interested.

Li Baxian glanced at him. If an ordinary fifth-level realm was so arrogant, he would definitely sneer, but his little junior brother... he really can't treat him as an ordinary fifth-level realm. In these days of teaching, he can feel Lu Ye's rapid growth, and the speed is terrifying.

Shui Yuan said slowly, "The Bixue Sect is not eligible to sign up. The garrison war requires the garrison commander and the deputy garrison commander to fight together. How can you go alone? Unless you can find a deputy garrison commander to accompany you."

Second Senior Sister's words sounded like she didn't agree with Lu Ye's participation in the garrison war, but she didn't say it for sure...

Lu Ye could naturally feel her concern, but as Fourth Senior Brother said, Second Senior Sister and the headmaster could protect him for a while, but they couldn't protect him for a lifetime.

So if he wanted to participate in the garrison war, he had to find a deputy garrison commander.

Where to find one? The right person needs to be trustworthy, and secondly, the cultivation level must be sufficient, otherwise, bringing a third or fourth level cultivator in would only be a burden.

There are many people on the side of the casual cultivators, but Lu Ye has never come into contact with them. Not to mention the issue of trust, I'm afraid that none of those casual cultivators are willing to participate in the garrison war, after all, it is a place where people can die at any time.

I thought for a long time but had no idea.

After dinner, he accepted the beating from the fourth senior brother as usual, and was dragged away by the second senior sister to heal his wounds. At night, he went to practice in the garrison.

One day, Lu Ye was practicing, and suddenly felt an invisible force surging from the Tianji Hall, and then radiated the entire garrison.

He frowned, stood up and walked towards the Tianji Hall, came to the Tianji Pillar to investigate the situation, and soon understood the reason.

The result of the sect grade assessment came out. This assessment was done by Tianji, and human power could not interfere.

Originally, in this assessment, the Bixue Sect was to be removed from the list, but because of the addition of his disciple, the sect was barely retained. This was because the sect had a Shenhai Realm and a Zhenhu Realm. Otherwise, it would be impossible for an ordinary sect to retain the ninth grade with three people.

Tianji has its own set of standards for how to assess the sect grade, but generally speaking, it is directly related to the number of cultivators in the sect and the level of their cultivation.

After confirming that there was no problem somewhere, Lu Ye returned to the practice room to practice.

The next day, in the main sect of the Bixue Sect, two figures collided, swords and knives intersected, and a harsh friction sound was heard. The stalemate figures crossed each other, and blood spurted out of Lu Ye's chest and abdomen. He turned quickly and held his knife to guard.

On the opposite side, Li Baxian looked down at his chest, where there was a faint blood mark.

He smiled slightly, put away his long sword, and turned to look at Lu Ye: "Junior brother, you passed the test! The rest, I have nothing to teach you. In the future, when fighting with the enemy, just trust your sword."

In a month, this was the first time that Lu Ye hurt Li Baxian. Under the same level of cultivation, Li Baxian was simply an invincible existence, and it also made Lu Ye see the weight of the tenth place on the Lingxi list.

After putting away the knife, Lu Ye bowed respectfully: "Thank you for your teaching, senior brother."

Li Baxian threw out his wine gourd, which immediately grew larger. He jumped lightly and stood on it. "The results of the sect's grade assessment are out. I also have to go back to Danxin Sect to prepare. Junior brother, I will come to see you next time. If you encounter any troubles on the battlefield in the future, remember to tell me."

As he said this, he greeted Shui Yuan again, faced the direction of the main hall, bowed solemnly, stood up, and the gourd carried him into a stream of light and quickly went away.

He left as soon as he said he would leave, which was really free and easy.

Lu Ye watched him leave and asked the question that had been in his heart for many days: "Second Senior Sister, since Fourth Senior Brother was born in this sect, why did he become a disciple of Danxin Sect?"

It seems that he has a third senior brother who is also like this, and now he has also devoted himself to another sect.

But looking at the fourth senior brother's appearance, it is clear that he still regards this place as his home. The headmaster and the second senior sister did not treat him as an outsider. He came as he pleased and left as he pleased.
