After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 139: From Now On, I’ll Call You Senior Brother and You Call Me Junior Brother
Chapter 139: Chapter 139: From Now On, I’ll Call You Senior Brother and You Call Me Junior Brother
August 1st.
It was the busiest day.
Fortunately, there were no problems.
By nightfall, most of the resources were successfully distributed, with only about a dozen left.
It’s not surprising to have leftovers.
After all...
Some were out on missions, while others were no longer able to receive resources.
And some were cultivating.
It was actually a bit strange, like last month, when everything was distributed.
As for the leftovers, they can be kept here for three months, after which the main storehouse will reclaim them.
However, the Sect does not reclaim them.
Which means, in the end, they all go into the main storehouse’s belt.
Gu An closed the door, no longer contemplating these messy matters.
He must remember his original intention, enhance his cultivation, and preserve his life.
At least not to be used as a scapegoat in the Inner Sect; being ordinary might actually be better for himself.
It would avoid being involved in other matters and thus wasting energy.
The night logging yard.
As Gu An was logging, a burly man came over again.
"Should I start calling you Senior Brother?" he asked with a smile.
Gu An looked at him and said with an embarrassed expression:
"I have weak cultivation; better not."
"I feel like you will surpass me soon. We are really in need of Spirit Stones; you are here to experience life," the burly man said seriously:
"I thought you were quite old, and most likely at the end of your journey.
But it turns out, I was the one who was shortsighted.
From now on, I will call you Senior Brother, and you can call me Junior Brother."
The person before him was named Yang Qi, and his talent should be quite good. In his early thirties, he advanced to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment on his own.
As for the change of address, he didn’t mind.
Nor was he worried that he couldn’t bear it.
So, he simply nodded in agreement.
Seeing how indifferent Gu An was, Yang Qi felt that his decision to change how he addressed him was correct; perhaps by changing the address, he could change his destiny.
Even if his destiny didn’t change, it wouldn’t offend someone with a background.
After that, Gu An concentrated fully on logging.
During the day, he experienced the Warm Current twice.
But he only added one Magic technique.
The other Warm Current was from Hard Cultivation.
But Hard Cultivation was full.
He couldn’t add more.
Gu An sighed. If he could continue accumulating, he would save at least a hundred for a critical moment to advance to Golden Core.
In the following days, Gu An was not affected by anyone else.
Senior Brother Ye did look for him once, not to ask about the logging progress, but just to tell him to log well.
Right person for the right job.
He hoped everyone wouldn’t have other thoughts, treating all equally.
After that, he asked Gu An to go back to logging.
Then he began to instruct those people in their techniques and cultivation.
He also said that he placed his hopes on them.
Gu An did not take it to heart.
Mid-August.
Gu An finally completed the tempering of his kidneys, and Innate Strength emerged.
Instantly, his Qi-Blood surged through his body, his flesh and blood became more resilient, and he could even channel most of his Qi-Blood into an attack.
Thus, the power of the Body Refining Method’s attack was comparable to someone in the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.
If he could gather another strand of Innate Strength, then the Body Refining Method’s attack would be comparable to Perfect Foundation Establishment.
When the fifth strength appears, it would be comparable to Golden Core.
Added with his own cultivation and the Qi Sea Sky Gang, perhaps he truly would be the strongest under Golden Core.
Even a chance to replace Golden Core might be possible.
But that would have to wait for Great Success.
The next day.
Gu An didn’t go to the night logging yard.
Instead, he prepared to use his accumulated perseverance from Hard Cultivation to enhance the fourth Innate Strength.
However, today he came back to find the noodles had disappeared again.
He didn’t know where they had gone this time.
Gu An didn’t care and decided to enhance first.
The power of Hard Cultivation began to merge into his body.
Gu An felt like he had a Dream.
In the dream, he first condensed innate energy in his body.
This step was easy.
In eight months, innate energy appeared in the fourth organ.
With one breath, Qi-Blood surged.
Then he began to learn the corresponding Body Skills.
Day after day, year after year.
Three years later.
Gu An felt like he was stuck in a bottleneck.
With no solution in sight, he could only continue his cultivation.
Three more years passed.
He eventually stopped practicing his punches.
The bottleneck was too large.
He stood in place for three years.
In his dream, Gu An saw himself practicing punches again.
Every inhalation and exhalation drove his Qi-Blood.
Another three years passed this way.
His breathing became more powerful, like thunder.
Primordial Qi-Blood flowed through his body with each breath.
It was then that Gu An finally opened his eyes.
Qi-Blood surged within his body, each breath now imbued with Innate Strength.
His physical status had reached an unprecedented peak.
A single breath could severely injure someone at the Ninth Level of Qi Refining.
Now, relying solely on the Body Refining Method, he could match up against those at Perfect Foundation Establishment.
But probably not enough to completely overwhelm them.
The Body Refining Method was powerful, but also had its limits.
Without close combat, there was almost nothing he could do, unless he learned the Qi Blood Technique.
But...
There wasn’t time, nor were there enough technique points.
Besides, he had Qi Sea Sky Gang and Hundred Steps Chasing Wind, which were sufficient for now.
After completing the fourth stage of Innate Strength, Gu An resumed his normal work routine.
Working at the Spiritual Treasure Vault in the morning, logging Iron Heart Wood in the afternoon, and logging Thunder Wood at night.
Without end.
The one thing that was gratifying was seeing his stats change day by day.
[Magic: 20/50]
[Hard Cultivation: 2/100] freёwebnoѵel.com
At the end of August.
[Magic: 39/50]
[Hard Cultivation: 29/100]
Mid-September.
[Magic: 50/50]
[Hard Cultivation: 59/100]
Following this, Gu An took another day off.
Taking the opportunity to complete the fifth layer of Qi Sea Sky Gang.
But after this, the increase in his Magic stats slowed down.
Even including the night logging, he could only accumulate one Warm Current.
Occasionally there were two.
This meant that progress would become increasingly slow.
Fortunately, there were no changes to Ren Yinghua’s side.
The Ring of Destiny would occasionally appear, but it was only mentioned and he never inquired further.
Since Gu An was continually collecting Spirit Stones, in the eyes of those people, he seemed to have fallen deeply into it.
There would be no other changes.
Thus, Gu An didn’t bother to ask further.
However, Junior Sister Bai Qing seemed to have encountered some problems.
After stabilizing her emotions, she became anxious again and told him not to trust others easily in the future as it was easy to suffer losses.
Gu An responded with a smile.
At the beginning of October.
Gu An headed to the Spiritual Treasure Vault early in the morning.
Passing by a room resembling an inn, he suddenly heard Junior Sister Bai Qing’s voice.
He stepped forward to take a look.
He saw Junior Sister Bai Qing arguing with a Baldie.
Her hands were placed under her, clutching at each other now and then, unsure of what position was more appropriate.
At this moment, Baldie was sitting at the table, having tea with three others.
They were all at Middle Late Stage Foundation Establishment.
"Didn’t Senior Brother say it would take at most a month to find the person?" asked Bai Qing, somewhat timidly.
"Yes, but unexpected things always happen. I found that the other party is very elusive and good at avoiding pursuit," Baldie spoke up.
"But I’ve offered more Spirit Stones," Bai Qing immediately said.
"That doesn’t help," Baldie casually sipped his tea and said,
"You know, there are always outcomes to things; it’s either success or failure.
This transaction has failed, and it’s not our fault.
It’s simply beyond our capabilities. You should ask someone else.
Of course, if you still want to find us, we can offer you a discount."
"When exactly did Senior Brother go looking for him?" Bai Qing suddenly asked.
"Of course, I’ve been looking for the past few months," Baldie said.
"But how come I’ve seen Senior Brother constantly around the Sect and Qingmu City? Didn’t you say you weren’t around the Sect, so you needed more Spirit Stones?" Bai Qing asked earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Baldie’s expression darkened.
