Lin Fei's mission was to collect ten black-backed centipedes in Lu Mountain.
Initially, Lin Fei planned to go to Lu Mountain himself, but he realized that it would be a waste for him to go there. Why catch the black-backed centipedes in the depths of the mountains himself? That would be a waste of time.
Lin's family was a wealthy merchant in Zhou Mauntian Mansion City, and all they needed to do was offer a bounty. There were plenty of people willing to go to Lu Mountain to catch black-backed centipedes.
Lin Wen bought black-backed centipedes at a sky-high price of 100 taels of silver per centipede. Twenty of them cost only 2,000 taels of silver, which was nothing for the Lin family. However, it was enough to entice many people to take the risk and venture into the deep of Lu Mountain.
"Your Tendon Transformation And Bone Forging Technique has reached the fourth level."
"Your Vajra Iron Cloth has reached the fifth level."
Lin Fei only needed to wait quietly. Days passed, and he stayed at home, which allowed him to focus on practicing his Tendon Transformation and Bone Forging Technique and Vajra Iron Cloth. Both of them had broken through, but the Giant Whale Body Refining Technique had yet to reach the sixth level.
"Bro, the ten black-backed centipedes you wanted have been collected," Lin Wen's voice came from outside the door.
Lin Fei went out to take a look and saw that his elder brother had ten porcelain bottles, each containing a black-backed centipede. There were small holes in the bottle caps to ensure that the centipedes did not suffocate.
Lin Fei took the centipedes.
"Big bro, now that the ten Black-Backed Centipedes have been collected, I have to set off and return to Nine Profound Sect," said Lin Fei to his elder brother.
Lin Wen nodded and said, "That's good. After all, you are a disciple of the sect, and now an outer sect disciple. You should return to Nine Profound Sect. I'll wait for your good news and hope you can become an inner sect disciple as soon as possible. When that happens, our Lin family will have an inner sect disciple in Nine Profound Sect. Just the reputation alone will make others think twice before messing with us."
Lin Wen knew that for the Lin family to become prestigious, they would need Lin Fei to excel in Nine Profound Sect and become an inner sect disciple. Only then would the family's reputation truly soar.
Lin Fei personally said goodbye to his parents and gave Lin Miao instructions before setting off alone towards Nine Profound Sect on a fast horse.
Before leaving, his elder brother gave him another 50,000 taels of silver bills, completely depleting the family's fortune.
Lin Fei did not refuse, as the Lin family's caravan could finally leave Zhou Mountain Mansion City. They would make back the money sooner or later. And Lin Fei needed a lot of silver to exchange for contribution points in Nine Profound Sect.
Along the way, he encountered no trouble and safely returned to Nine Profound Sect.
"Submit the task," said Lin Fei as he went straight to the task hall and handed in the task, receiving 100 contribution points.
These contribution points were not worth mentioning, so Lin Fei exchanged all 50,000 taels of silver notes for contribution points, receiving a total of 50,000 contribution points!
With this, Lin Fei became rich again. However, Lin Fei needed to plan carefully for these 50,000 contribution points.
He must use them in need, which would maximize his strength.
"System."
Lin Fei called up the system panel.
Host: Lin Fei
Martial Arts Realm: Body Refining Fifth Level
Giant Whale Body Refining Technique: Fifth Level (71% progress)
Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist: Transcendence (1% progress)
Nine Shadow Saber Technique: Transcendence (1% progress)
Vajra Iron Cloth: Fifth Level (1% progress)
Tendon Transformation and Bone Forging Technique: Fourth Level (51% progress)
Lin Fei carefully reviewed his martial arts.
The Giant Whale Body Refining Technique and Tendon Transformation and Bone Forging Technique practiced themselves diligently every day, which were two very hard-working martial arts.
So, even if Lin Fei did nothing, his Body Refining progress would still improve. Therefore, Lin Fei doesn't need to spend any contribution points on Body Refining martial arts.
At most, he would buy some medicinal materials to practice Vajra Iron Cloth. So, if Lin Fei wanted to increase his strength, there was only one way to do it: combat martial arts!
When his Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist and Nine Shadow Saber Technique reach transcendence, they could no longer improve.
Lin Fei felt like a fishbone was stuck in his throat. He must find a solution.
Moreover, combat martial arts were the greatest for increasing one's strength.
Once the Nine Shadow Saber Technique reaches perfection, he could create nine saber shadows with one strike. The increase in strength would be enormous.
"Perhaps there is a way. My martial arts can understand, right? Isn't it like a person, who can quickly improve with the guidance and instruction of a master?"
Lin Fei thought of a way. Not only could martial arts practice itself, but it could also gain insights.
It was no different from a person. It might be effective if someone guided and instructed it.
Of course, it would cost money! That meant he had to give contribution points.
Lin Fei needed guidance, but his saber technique and fist technique had already reached transcendence.
Therefore, he had to find people who had reached perfection to give him guidance.
But how easy was it to achieve perfection in Nine Shadow Saber Technique and Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist?
At least, in Lin Fei's three years as an outer disciple, he had not heard of anyone achieving perfection.
Of course, this could also be because he was an outer disciple. The information was blocked, and he did not know about the inner sect.
"Go to the task hall."
Lin Fei made a quick decision. He would spend money on this matter at all costs.
As long as he had enough contribution points, he would not be afraid of not getting guidance.
