I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency

Chapter 357: Leader Star Sword Domain, Chengfeng

Academy (2)

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

Although the Dao discussion was not an actual battle, its degree of danger was far above that of ordinary battles.

This was because as the Dao discussion goes on, it was possible that one would end up with a tragic outcome of their Dao heart collapsing and their bodies dying.

The two Sword Domains held Dao discussions once every hundred years, and every time, more than ten disciples would die because of the collapse of their Dao heart.

And these fallen disciples were all direct disciples of Spirit Sword Sect.

On the other hand, the direct disciple of the other Sword Domains would usually not have many deaths in a year.

However, more than a dozen of them died in one Dao discussion. One could see how dangerous this was.

Although the loss of disciples was severe, both the Chengfeng Academy of the Leader Star Sword Domain and the Knowledge Research Institute of the Wisdom Star Sword Domain were happy to do so.

This was because, at the end of every Dao discussion, several heavenly pride who had an ‘epiphany’ would appear.

The dao discussion was both dangerous and an opportunity…

“Senior brother, may I ask if this is the Chengfeng Academy of the Leader Star Sword Domain?”

Wang Ye, who was leaning against the wall and sunbathing, opened his eyes lazily.

What greeted his eyes was a handsome male cultivator.

For some reason, Wang Ye felt an inexplicable sense of comfort when he saw the other party.

“May 1 ask, junior brother, who you are?”

Lu Yuan bowed to Wang Ye politely, “Speed Star Sword Domain, Lu Yuan.”

“Lu Yuan?”

Wang Ye was stunned at first, but then he immediately became spirited.

“So it’s junior brother Lu Yuan. Master asked me to wait for you here and then bring you to the Academy for cultivation. 1 didn’t expect you to come so soon.” “It was supposed to be a little later, but I just finished my secluded cultivation and didn’t have much to prepare, so 1 immediately set off.”

“Haha, 1 didn’t know that junior brother Lu Yuan was a cultivation maniac.”

“My name is Wang Ye, the tenth-ranked disciple of the Academy. 1 will take you into the Academy to take a look.”

“All right.”

Lu Yuan followed behind Wang Ye and walked directly towards an academy on the mountain surrounded by immortal fog.

Looking at Wang Ye’s back, Lu Yuan was secretly surprised.

[Name: Wang Ye]

[Cultivation: Apotheosis Stage Level 1]

[Law: Law of Numbers]

An unremarkable disciple of the Academy already had the cultivation of the Apotheosis Stage.

Chengfeng Academy didn’t seem to be a simple place.

Just as Lu Yuan was sizing up Wang Ye, the other party was also quietly observing him.

In Wang Ye’s eyes, although Lu Yuan had never studied in the Academy, his temperament seemed to be very compatible with the Academy.

Every word and action was in accordance with the laws of Heaven and Earth and natural Dao.

In Wang Ye’s own words, although Lu Yuan was only a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, he had already reached the initial stage of the unity of heaven and man.

It was hard to imagine that such a person actually came from the Speed Star Sword Domain, which had a dense mortal aura.

If he didn’t know Lu Yuan’s background, Wang Ye would have thought that Lu Yuan was a cultivator from an ancient sect who had been cultivating in the mountains for many years.

However, Wang Ye liked Lu Yuan’s temperament very much.

This was because the Chengfeng Academy valued and paid the most attention to fate.

For example, while he was sleeping at the foot of the mountain, he accidentally met Lu Yuan. That was fate.

Although the two of them did not deliberately meet, fate brought them together.

And he just happened to be the leading the other party.

If this was all a coincidence, then it wouldn’t make sense.

In fact, the reason why Wang Ye had slept at the foot of the mountain today was not because he had suddenly decided to.

He had previously done a divination. The divination showed that if he slept at the foot of the mountain today, he would meet his benefactor.

Obviously, Lu Yuan was his benefactor.

Thinking of this, Wang Ye’s attitude towards Lu Yuan became even more enthusiastic.

“Junior brother Lu Yuan, how much do you know about our Chengfeng Academy?”

Lu Yuan thought for a moment and said, “1 heard that your sect advocates the unity of heaven and man and natural Dao. The disciple in the sect has no desires or thoughts. They cultivate according to their nature.”

“At first 1 thought that cultivating like this would be too lazy, but after seeing you, 1 feel that my view of your academy is still too one-sided.”

“If there are many people like Senior Brother in the academy, then Chengfeng Academy… is a little unpredictable.”

Seeing Lu Yuan praise him, the corners of Wang Ye’s mouth curled up slightly.

“Junior brother Lu, you’re a wonderful person. You’re still praising me in a roundabout way. Let me say this first. Our Academy doesn’t pay attention to flattery because our cultivation… It’s all on our own.”

With that, Wang Ye put his arm around Lu Yuan’s shoulder and whispered, “However, there is no absolute in the world. Although the Academy is particular about fate, the so-called fate sometimes depends on people and things.”

“Oh? Senior brother, please guide me.”

Wang Ye stretched out his hand, and a magic coin appeared in his palm.

The so-called magic money was a special kind of currency.

Because spiritual energy was too important to cultivators, although there were many spiritual stones in the celestial cultivation world, there were not many circulating in the market.

After all, whether it was cultivation, casting spells, or setting up array formations, they all required spiritual stones.

Therefore, although spiritual stones could also be used as currency, the Three Upper Realm Sect specially created a legal currency to prevent people from hoarding spiritual stones in large quantities.

For example, the magic coin in Wang Ye’s hand was equivalent to a high-grade spiritual stone.

As long as he had this magic coin, he could exchange it for the equivalent amount of spiritual stones from the bank opened by Treasure Trove Pavilion in the Wealth Star Sword Domain.

The relationship between magic coins and spiritual stones was the same as the relationship between currency and gold in Lu Yuan’s previous life.

“Junior brother Lu, sometimes fate can be bought with money.”

“For example, if you calculated that you have no fate with something today, but you really want that something, then you can spend a lot of money to buy it.” “Or if you have a problem that can’t be solved by just letting nature take its course, you can spend money to hire someone to help you solve it.”

“This…”

Hearing Wang Ye’s special ‘fate theory’, Lu Yuan was a little surprised.

“Junior brother Lu, do you think that my words are a little too subjective?”

Lu Yuan nodded and raised his doubts.

“Senior brother Wang, is this fate that was exchanged with money really fate?”

Wang Ye stopped and looked at Lu Yuan with a serious expression.

“Junior brother, have you ever heard of this saying?”

“What saying?”

“The Buddha helps the rich.”

“The so-called fate is actually whether I think there is fate between us. If you have money, then even if we don’t have fate, I can still create fate for you.”

“This is my Dao, the Dao of Magic Coin and Fate.”

“In this world, there is nothing that can’t be solved with magic coins. If there is… It must be because 1 didn’t pay enough.”

“But senior brother, isn’t this Dao of yours…”

“Wouldn’t it be the same as those merchants from the Wealth Star Sword Domain?”

Lu Yuan nodded. He indeed meant this.

After all, Wang Ye clearly looked like a free practitioner who lived in the wild. He look completely different from the profit-seeking person he had mentioned just now.

Wang Ye took a deep look at Lu Yuan, then said meaningfully, “Junior brother, the fact that you can ask this question means that you haven’t comprehended the true essence of the unity of heaven and man and natural Dao of our Chengfeng Academy.”

“There are some things that you will understand soon after you enter the Academy. Follow me.”

As they talked, they arrived at the main gate of the Academy.

After following Wang Ye into the gate, Lu Yuan was quickly shocked by the scene in front of him.

It was different from the poetic and picturesque academy he had imagined.

The real Chengfeng Academy… was similar to a market in the mortal world.

Not only were there people selling things everywhere but there were also some craftsmen who were fiddling with special crafts.

If it wasn’t for the cultivation aura that these people exuded, Lu Yuan would even suspect that he had entered a mortal country.

Looking at the stunned Lu Yuan, Wang Ye smiled and said, “Junior brother Lu, welcome to Chengfeng Academy.”

“This is what our Academy truly looks like.”

“The way of the heaven is formless, and the Dao is natural. In fact, as long as it can help us ascend to immortality, it is a good Dao. There is no need to be rigidly bound to a fixed shape.”

“When the wind rises in a day, it will soar up to 90,000 miles. What is this wind… Is it important?”

“Therefore, the true essence of Chengfeng Academy is that we can learn whatever we want to learn without having to worry too much.”

“As the saying goes, wherever the heart reaches, there is a way of the heavens.. Now, junior brother Lu, do you understand?”
