My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 66: Chapter 65: 100,000 Contribution Points

Translator: 549690339

In his previous life, Li Fan spent a fortune, obtained mainly through “cleaning” the treasures he’d scrounged, in order to secure a spot at the Spirit Cleansing Pond on Liuli Island.

In the end, what he was left with only amounted to 235 contribution points.

Now, with a total worth of 863 contribution points, Li Fan understood why some cultivators would help mortals sneakyly cross over into the Immortal Cultivation World.

All he did was raid the homes of a few corrupt officials and he had quickly earned more than 800 contribution points.

It would be quite normal for those cultivators to score over a thousand points in one go.

You should know that an Energy Refining Technique alone costs over a thousand points.

If added up over a ten-year period, it would amount to quite a sizeable fortune.

“Wealth moves the heart…”

Li Fan sighed, then took out the Liuli Bead he’d obtained from the giant Liuli Fish.

“This Exquisite Liuli Bead is worth 850 points of contribution.”

After some thought, he realized that this Exquisite Liuli Bead was equivalent to a debilitated version of the Liuli Pill. Although its efficacy was somewhat lacking, it had the advantage of not being consumed.

As he would definitely need it in the future cultivation, Li Fan chose not to exchange it and instead, stashed it away again.

Li Fan, looking at his total contribution of 2831 points, shook his head.

It’s still not enough, too little!

The related knowledge about the Natural Treasures costs over two thousand points.

During his previous encounters with the enforcement cultivators of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, Li Fan realized that despite having the realm of the Final Stage of Energy Refining, his actual combat strength was actually very poor.

“The Golden Seal of the Jade Realm of a Thousand Mechanisms”, being the main technique he was currently cultivating in, lacked an effective means of killing.

Aside from his comprehended Formless Killing Machine, he had no other ways to fend off enemies.

The Formless Killing Machine, although powerful, had a fatal defect: it often needed to pass a period of time before it could take effect.

It was only suitable for unexpectedly attacking people in secret, but not suitable for direct confrontations.

If he were to engage in combat with someone or if he were to be surrounded, Li Fan could only choose to flee.

And at the moment, the only primitive escape skill he knew was the Gale Secret Technique, which would most likely not allow him to escape.

Inability to beat others, and inability to run away.

A tragedy seemed inevitable.

Thus, various kinds of offensive techniques, escape techniques, defensive techniques, and even various kinds of magic tools, Array Diagrams, Elixirs… gleaming in the Ten Thousand Profound Mirror, Li Fan wanted them all!

This amount of contribution was simply not enough.

After considering for a moment, he began to check the reward tasks posted by other cultivators in the Ten Thousand Profound Mirror.

In his past life, when his consciousness was integrated with the Vast Ocean, he saw many hidden secret treasures in the Misthaven Ocean.

Some of these treasures could be obtained by his current strength, like the Exquisite Liuli Bead.

Yet, many others were extremely dangerous, and not even Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators could covet them easily.

Rather than letting these secrets rot in the ocean, it was better to choose some to sell early on and quickly convert them into his own combat power.

His sight quickly scanned through the reward tasks.

Upon seeing one of the tasks, Li Fan suddenly paused.

With a flicker of divine consciousness, he began to check the details of the task.

Elder Chen of the Medical Hall needs one more auxiliary material for alchemy: Blue Blood Coral.

The reward is now offered to all cultivators in the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals: anyone who provides relevant information, once verified, will be rewarded 1000 contribution points.

Those who directly provide Blue Blood Coral will be rewarded 3000 contribution points.

Li Fan looked at the remaining tasks again, and among those he knew, this task was the most lavish.

So he accepted this task.

“In the northwest sea area of the Misthaven Ocean, about two hundred miles west of Fog Crow Island. I’ve seen this type of coral at the bottom of the ocean.” “Unfortunately, there’s a sea snake guarding the coral.”

“The exact strength of the sea snake is unknown, but simply from a distant glance, I felt a sense of fatal danger.”

Li Fan fabricated a story and submitted the task.

Given the efficiency of the Ten Thousand Immortals Island, the authenticity of his provided information should be verified very soon.

Without surprise, he received the task reward in just less than half a day.

However, interestingly, the reward task of Blue Blood Coral was not cancelled, but still hung there.

“It seems Elder Chen needs a lot of Blue Blood Coral. I wonder what kind of pill he is refining.”

Just for one ingredient, he was willing to spend 3000 contribution points, obviously, the pill he was going to refine must be very extraordinary.

But Li Fan was merely curious.

According to rumors, Elder Chen was the chief Elder of the Ten Thousand Immortals Island’s Medical Hall, and he was a Nascent Soul cultivator. That level was far beyond Li Fan’s reach.

Squashing the curiosity that had sprung up momentarily, Li Fan focused his attention on one task that stood out the most among the many reward tasks. This was also the reason why Li Fan was eager to improve his strength.

Task: Offer a reward for “The Cloud and Water Scroll”.

Reward: One hundred thousand contribution points.

Just two simple lines without any further explanation.

But the numbers of one hundred thousand contribution points were so captivating that all the cultivators who saw it couldn’t help but be intrigued.

That’s one hundred thousand contribution points!

Many cultivators of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals might not even be able to accumulate that much in their lifetime.

With these one hundred thousand contribution points, reaching the Nascent Soul Realm might be difficult, but cultivation to the Golden Core Realm would definitely be feasible!

Countless cultivators were envious as they read these two lines over and over again, imagining the glorious scene after they completed the task.

Unfortunately, the reward task had been posted for over ten years and yet, it remained unfulfilled.

Nobody even knew what exactly “The Cloud and Water Scroll” was.

The publisher of the task was also very mysterious, never appearing or giving any explanation from beginning to end.

It’s as if he was telling everyone: if you understand, you understand. If you don’t, it’s pointless to explain.

Currently, no one in the Misthaven Ocean knew where “The Cloud and Water Scroll” was.

Except for Li Fan.

‘”The Cloud and Water Scroll’, the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters,” Li Fan kept repeating to himself.

The “Cloud and Water Scroll”, worth a staggering one hundred thousand contribution points, was in that Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters.

The Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, or to put it more accurately, the

Ruins of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, was the place that Xiao Heng had mentioned in his letter during Li Fan’s past life, where he had gone searching for Natural Treasures.

The reason why no one knew of this secret yet was simply because the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters had not reemerged.

In his past life, Li Fan had only become interested in the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters because of Xiao Heng’s letter.

Thus, he had committed to memory this event that was destined to shake the Misthaven Ocean.

The Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, isolated on the sea, was said to be the most powerful sect within the domain of the Misthaven Ocean back in ancient times.

When the Great Calamity descended, the disciples of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, after a massacre amongst themselves, were almost utterly annihilated and the survivors decided to activate the Sect Protection Great Array to isolate their world.

Since then, the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters was hidden behind the

Array Technique, tucked away in the central sea area of the Misthaven Ocean.

It wasn’t until 11 years later that the Array Technique broke down and the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, which had been hidden for thousands of years, reappeared in the world.

However, the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters that had chosen to live in seclusion still could not escape its fate of annihilation.

When the cultivators of the Misthaven Ocean entered it, they found that the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters had long become a peculiar ruin..
