Chapter 8: Vast Sky Technique

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As for the status column, the system had already set up four options: outer sect disciple, inner sect disciple, personal disciple, and chief disciple. Ye Yan’s thoughts flashed. Chen Geng was his best friend and first sect member, so he must be stronger. As such, he simply set him as a personal disciple.

After all, he had brought Chen Geng into the path of celestial cultivation. He would teach the other party word by word. There should be no problems for him to be the latter’s master. As for reaching the height of a chief disciple, that would have to wait. When there were more people in the sect and Chen Geng’s strength grew, then he could improve his position.

After setting it up, Ye Yan looked at Chen Geng who had just finished his meal, and said, “Geng, the sect is established. Since I’m the sect master, you need an identity as well. You can be my first personal disciple.”

Hearing this, Chen Geng was unhappy, “No way, Brother Yan. If you become my master, we can’t be brothers anymore!”

“Nonsense!” Ye Yan pouted, not giving him any chance to refute, “We’re still brothers, but I’m the one who will be teaching you the Dharmic technique word by word. It’s not too much to call me your master, right?”

“Fine!” Chen Geng seemed to understand, “Then should I call you master in the future?”

Ye Yan nodded, then shook his head, “Still call me your brother in front of family, but call me master when outsiders are present. Don’t mix them up.”

Time was of the essence, so Chen Geng sat down and began to cultivate. Perhaps he was enlightened, but he actually had some insight into the technique.

In just two to three breaths, he had already immersed himself in the comprehension. But Ye Yan, who was sitting opposite him, wasn’t in the mood to do the same. He had the automatic cultivation function, and it had only taken him a day to reach rank two of the beginner Qi-forging Realm.

Since he had nothing to do, he decided to take a look at the treasures in the system store. After all, he had to find the farming spells that he had promised his father yesterday.

After opening the system store, the first row was some items with a golden luster. They were all kinds of pills and magic tools, and their functions made Ye Yan amazed.

The only thing that made him sad was the astronomical price of these items as written below them. At the moment, they seemed to be things that he could never buy in his lifetime.

Moreover, those items did not seem to just require ordinary spirit stones, but concentrated spirit stones that were purer. That being said, he didn’t need these high-graded treasures, for now. Ye Yan was after some more basic things.

However, when he saw the densely packed items below, he lost the desire to continue looking. There were too many types that he simply couldn’t finish looking at all of them.

Ye Yan felt that it was better to let the system recommend things. After all, whenever he needed something, the system would always recommend things to him at the right time, such as yesterday’s Simplification Record.

He suddenly remembered the mission reward from yesterday. There was something called a cold summer cold lotus heart. To put it bluntly, it was a lotus seed. However, the lotus root was quite strange such that it did not grow in ponds, but in soil.

He wondered if the seed had any special requirements for the soil or if there was anything in the planting method that he should pay attention to. Ye Yan stared at the icon of the lotus heart while muttering the question in his heart. Then, his mouth curved into a smile. It was time for the system’s telepathy again!

Opening the system store again, sure enough, a row of recommended items appeared at the top, such as “earth-grade plant nurturing manual” and “excellent spirit soil”.

What a great system that cared for its hosts! It was much better than the unscrupulous systems in the online novels he had read in his previous life! Ye Yan took it to heart and his joy… His joy was also in his heart. However, when he saw the prices of the two items, he was dumbfounded.

Each of them cost a spirit stone! They would cost two spirit stones in total! This was a huge sum of money for him, who only had four pieces in his inventory. After purchasing these things, he would only have two pieces left, which would make the time he could automatically cultivate shorter.

“System, please give me a mission. I beg you…” He thought hard.

[Ding! New mission (limited time): A sect with a great future needs to be recognized by others.]

[Mission Details: Increase the sect’s reputation to 5% within 10 days]

[Punishment for Failure: None]

Ye Yan looked at the mission panel, his face a bit gloomy. The second mission now had a punishment column. Although there was no punishment now, it might not be the case in the future.

The punishment was probably uncertain. A light punishment would be a deduction of spirit stones, and a big punishment… He didn’t dare to imagine what it would be. Maybe there was a punishment called “obliteration”! Thinking of this, Ye Yan was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly clicked open the mission and looked at the details.

[God-slaying Sect]

[Sect Reputation: 3]

Ye Yan looked at the number 3 in a daze. Currently, his father, brother, and Chen Geng were the only people who knew about the sect. It seemed that the reputation points were calculated according to the number of people who knew about his sect. Then, it would be easy to complete this mission. He only needed to go back to the village and just tell two people about the sect.

However, it was best to find two trustworthy people and pull them into the sect as well. Since the targets had to have a good relationship with Ye Yan and Chen Geng, that narrowed down his options to his childhood playmates.

But now, many of their playmates were busy toiling in the fields at home since it was spring. It was impossible for them to find time to carry out the so-called celestial cultivation.

Ye Yan was quite troubled, but with the mentality of completing the mission first, he didn’t rush to recruit people. It was okay to just let them know about the existence of the sect first.

He could give it a try when he returned. With the mission, he didn’t need to worry about the spirit stones anymore, but Ye Yan still held back his desire to buy the two items.

He was still thinking about the other function. That’s right, spell synthesis. Wood. He needed a lot of wood. Looking at Chen Geng who had already entered the state, Ye Yan didn’t disturb him. He picked up the axe and left the room quietly.

In the following time, deep in the mountains, a youth appeared. He was holding an axe and waving it at trees. He used the axe with ease, and the tree would fall in two or three strikes.

The creatures that passed by would occasionally feel that something was missing on the road, but a few trees could not attract the attention of these creatures that had lived in the shadows for their entire lives.

On the other side, Ye Yan was waving the axe and chopping the trees. Just as he was engrossed, there was a stir in the air, which alerted his nerves.

“Something’s not right,” Ye Yan’s eyes widened as he stared in one direction.

He could feel an unfamiliar and powerful aura appear around the village. The aura flashed and quickly disappeared into nature as if it had never been there.

Ye Yan didn’t think he was hallucinating. He had already experienced the perception of a cultivator. Someone must have been here just now. However, since the other party did not show up, he did not want to alert the enemy either. He continued to cut the trees and pretended that nothing was wrong. Just like that, until the time when Ye Yan was about to leave, that aura didn’t appear again.

“I need to improve my strength faster. This world is not peaceful…”

In the small house, Ye Yan quickly moved the wood and ink into the grid, then put a spirit stone into the third grid. As for the fourth grid, he had some ideas about the spell core. He didn’t want a single spell technique or one that was too strong. He was just a new cultivator, so he should start with the basics.

He also didn’t want one with an upper limit. It would be best if it could be continuously upgraded and would develop new functions as his strength improved, something like the God of War transformation.

The last point was that it needed a good name so that cultivating it would make him feel good. After sorting out the ideas that he thought were reasonable, Ye Yan entered them one by one and then clicked “complete”.

[Beginning spell synthesis…]

After a few minutes, the sound of metal clashing disappeared.

[Ding! The spell “Vast Sky Technique” has been successfully synthesized and sent to the internal storage. Please check it yourself.]
