Mythological origins

As outsiders, they still don't quite understand the persistence of the native mortals in Yuanyang Realm who want to become immortals.

In the empire, only three and a half million imperial gold dollars can buy a starting spiritual material such as Xuanji Fruit, and then start the journey of cultivation.

Generally, civilians without qualifications can earn this amount of money by finding an ordinary job and working for a few years.

If you just want to start practicing cultivation, it is much easier than buying an apartment.

But thanks to the development of the Internet, basically everyone knows that the real bulk of the expenditure on cultivation lies in the follow-up journey.

It's a real bottomless pit.

It is no joke to practice Taoism and ruin one's family.

Therefore, many people will not waste these hundreds of thousands at all, because it is useless to continue without resources if they have just started. The status of low-level monks in the empire is not much different from that of ordinary people.

After all, as long as you put on basic power armor that can be bought everywhere and costs hundreds of thousands, civilians can defeat the first-order low-level monks who can't even beat the armor.

If you don't cultivate to the second level or above, you will still be nothing.

But people in Yuanyang Realm don't seem to realize this problem yet.

In other words, due to the abnormal development of productivity, ordinary people without spiritual roots in this world do not have any power to resist. They need to grasp any straw that can help them climb up.

Even if the straw is bloody, it is still his own blood.

…

"This head of the Zhao family... seems a bit strange." For some reason, Yu Lan always felt a strange sense of familiarity when greeting Zhao Zilin.

"Is it possible that she is the time traveler?"

"It's not surprising either..."

It's no surprise at all that a handful of them are found every year across Empire.

"Zuiyueju..." Zhao Zilin always felt that Yu Lan looked at her in a strange way.

Although I am quite good-looking, it stands to reason that given the other party's status, she would not behave like this... Moreover, the wife of Zuiyue Layman is no worse than myself in appearance and temperament.

Zhao Zilin divided the Yin-Yang Five Elements Jue training class into three levels. The bronze-level class was taught by her subordinates who had previously studied with Jin Guang and Master Shui Jing.

The silver-level class is taught by the idiot Master Jin Guang.

Gold-level junior class, he and Master Shui Jing went into battle in person.

In Linzhou City, students who can afford five thousand taels of tuition must be from well-known families. They will teach by themselves. In the future, they will gain the favor of teachers and students.

If Master Shui Jing hadn't also thought of this and strongly urged him to come, Miss Zhao would never want to share this favor with one more person.

…

All the wealthy families in Linzhou City, as well as well-informed landlords and wealthy people from the surrounding areas, even those who did not report to work, came to the Linzhou City venue to join in the fun.

Because they had to sacrifice twenty years of life, the people who took the initiative to sign up for the gold and silver class this time were basically the second sons of the big families. They were not the eldest son's direct grandchildren, and the family would not have their turn to inherit.

If you don't work hard, you will be just a high-level worker who manages the family's business until you die, known as the shopkeeper.

Of course, the position of shopkeeper is already a level that ordinary people cannot reach in their lifetime.

But if the second sons of these side branches succeed in cultivation, they may even become the new masters of the family. Even the head of the eldest son's legitimate son may not be as powerful as the "overlord" behind the family.

"City Lord Ding has also spent a lot of money..."

Because he saw Zhao Zilin's personal demonstration, Ding Changhan directly asked his second son and third son to register for the class this time. "I wonder who will be the head of the Ding family in the future." Miss Zhao thought with malice.

…

"Old man, do you know why this city is so lively?"

At the gate of Linzhou City, a man and a woman in a carriage stopped an old man who was about to enter the city and asked.

"You are foreigners, right? Linzhou City is holding some sort of immortal induction conference. As long as you pay the immortal masters, you can learn the magic of immortality." The old man held a pipe in his mouth, took a deep breath and said slowly. .

"No requirements?!"

"The immortal masters said that if you give money, the church will be guaranteed."

"Isn't this a liar? You can learn magic without spiritual roots?"

This man and woman are Han Yu and his sister Han Caihuan. Since that incident, Han Yu has slowly established a firm foothold in Qixuanmen, and now he has gradually replaced Doctor Mo's original position.

After practicing behind closed doors for many days, Han Yu felt that he seemed to have hit a bottleneck, so he took his sister out of Qixuanmen and tried to play around.

Han Yu's sister is not as lucky as him. She is just a mortal without spiritual roots. This trip may be his last chance to accompany his sister for a long time.

After this time, he planned to find a good and reliable family for his sister.

After all, there is a difference between immortals and mortals. The more contact Han Yu has with the world of cultivation, the more Han Yu understands this fact. The two people will inevitably embark on two completely different paths in life.

As for being able to cultivate immortality without spiritual roots, he never took it seriously.

"Young man, you will know if you go and take a look. Even the city lord of Linzhou City is here in person. Most liars don't have this style..."

The old man didn't care whether Han Yu or the others believed it or not, so he drove the cows, smoked the pipe, and staggered away.

To him, no immortality or magic was as refreshing as the puff of smoke in front of him.

"Why are there always such liars..."

Han Yu was very conflicted.

Emotionally, he hoped that this was true. If he could learn the immortal arts and embark on the path of cultivating immortals by paying money, he and his sister, who depended on each other for life, could continue to do so without going their own ways and watching her get married.

But rationally, he knew very well that this was basically a scam...

People without spiritual roots cannot cultivate immortals. This has been the iron rule of the cultivation world for thousands of years.

Han Caihuan, who was standing aside, was also quietly watching her brother. She gradually realized his contradiction.

She was just an ordinary person. Sooner or later, she would part ways with her brother who had learned the immortal arts.

Just as the man and woman were hesitating at the city gate, a convoy came behind them. The flag of the convoy had the word "Mo" written on it in a dragon-like and phoenix-like style.

"Mother, the city ahead is Linzhou City, the largest city within a hundred miles. We will definitely be able to develop many like-minded people in it."

The owners of the convoy were the Mo family's daughters.

They wanted to spread Mo Tianxie's mark more and faster, so they would not be satisfied with Yong'an Town.

After the nearby towns were flooded with Yin Yang Five Elements practitioners, the women took the initiative to try to go to a farther place directly.

"Why are there so many beauties in the convoy..." Han Yu was still thinking, but was interrupted by the convoy behind him.
