Big Data Cultivation-Chapter 1300: High Demand

This time when Feng Jun "expanded admissions" for cancer patients, it indeed brought about quite a few surprises.

Those thirty individuals from within the system were easy to handle, but facing society for those thirty slots really had the flavor of "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Each Showing Their Abilities."

Among them, five slots were introduced by Yang Yuxin alone, because she was well aware of Feng Jun’s level of cancer treatment.

The people she knew were either rich or noble, and before this, some wanted to find Feng Jun for treatment, but she didn’t want to trouble him, so any requests she passed on were routed through other channels to the indicators within the system.

These indicators certainly weren’t easy to secure, but going the substitute route was much easier—among those "supplementary personnel" Feng Jun met, there were some inserted by the Gu Family, but no one talked about it.

Now that Feng Jun had social indicators, Yang Yuxin naturally took advantage of them, since these indicators were not publicly accessible to society—knowing about cancer treatment at Luohua Manor was one thing, but finding a way to register is another.

Even among these five slots, only two were Yang Yuxin’s own contacts, the other three were inserted by Eldest Gu and Second Master Gu—finding a way through the system was too troublesome, requiring too many favors, so they simply let the brother-in-law handle it.

Yang Yuxin’s case was a surprise, and there were many other surprises, with someone coming under the flag of Wangwu—a construction businessman from Chaoge was directly denied by Feng Jun: I have no connections with Wangwu, and the Cancer Care Center won’t open for another three months.

This builder from Chaoge had heard of Feng Jun’s story—Boss Feng once did Boiler Camel Motorcycle business in Chaoge but was chased away by the city, and animosity between the two sides was strong.

So he assumed Feng Jun genuinely disregarded people from Chaoge, having little to do with Wangwu, but he personally had an urgent need, thus he turned to the health system in Funiu Province for help.

However, facts proved this route was incorrect, and finally, he had to seek help from Wu Limin, the young master of Sheng Tang Construction, to get onto this session’s list.

Wu Limin also recommended two people, making it three with the businessman, and the twenty million treatment cost was no small sum, but for those in real estate, who doesn’t have a few wealthy friends?

In fact, even someone like Li Shishi from the countryside recommended a cancer patient. The recommended person wasn’t an outsider but the village head from their suburban village.

Another major recommender was Gao Qiang, who recommended four people.

Bear in mind, he previously worked in exposing fake Chinese medicine practices, had contact with many doctors, and encountered many patients who turned to Chinese medicine after terminal illnesses proved untreatable by Western medicine. His exposé activities had strong topicality.

Now, he hasn’t been exposing for many years, but his reputation remains, and many are willing to try the miraculous treatments he recommends.

To put it plainly, he mixed in Beijing circles with quite a few wealthy people, and since he had credibility, others didn’t mind trying different treatments—after all, they’re dealing with cancer, might as well spend more money.

Twenty million... is that even considered money? Selling two houses within the Third Ring would suffice.

These connections occupied a significant portion of the thirty slots.

Indeed, Feng Jun’s so-called social indicators were not exclusively provided to Daoist sects, though most people couldn’t meet the threshold, but if one’s own people can’t benefit—then simply open another pathway for them.

No matter what, the thirty slots facing society were exploded and exceeded in a short time.

Maoshan introduced five cancer patients, Wudang introduced thirteen... each capable of paying twenty million.

No wonder Wudang was thriving; their list exceeded directly, though they received the news late, and Elder Guo was merely an elder, not the sect leader.

Feng Jun couldn’t help but marvel: In the absence of monopoly, how abundant the social demand is.

Marvel as he did, rules were still adhered to, setting thirty people facing society, and thirty it was. In this regard, he was quite rigid, and not very sentimental, but how to manage relying solely on connections?

To screen out nine from thirty-nine people, Feng Jun personally conducted on-site assessments, selecting nine individuals—next batch for you, as your physical condition can still sustain.

This act of barring patients from entry sparked dissatisfaction among those eliminated; it’s known these were individuals who could pay twenty million treatment fees, which placed them in esteemed positions in society.

Overall, the more people like this, the more they understood how hard Luohua was to provoke, most accepted their still manageable physical state, though some sought other avenues to influence the decision, failing, they could only reluctantly abandon.

Among them, one person was quite displeased, saying, "I paid twenty million for treatment, and still have to watch someone else’s face? Screw this, I won’t come here again!"

Feng Jun didn’t care about such reactions at all, until another person brought a group to block the gates of the Rehabilitation Center.

This person is a boss who manufactures parts. After his business expanded, he brought up the entire clan; the whole village is either in this industry or providing support for it.

The village belongs to one family surname. Although they are from another province, they directly brought a truckload of the elderly, women, and children, and camped at the entrance of the Rehabilitation Center, refusing to leave, even putting up banners.

There are guards at the Rehabilitation Center, including people from Ren Zhiyuan’s side and related departments.

Supposedly, the related departments are quite powerful, but when faced with a group of elderly women and children, there’s no way to take serious action.

Feng Jun, upon hearing this news, laughed in anger, "Did it really escalate to my door?"

At first, he didn’t intervene, wanting to see if there were any solutions from that side, and fortunately, there were still powerful departments involved. Personnel access and material purchases weren’t restricted.

However, the next day, this group of people actually brought barricades to block the gate, forbidding the construction team from working.

During these cold days, such twists and turns weren’t comfortable for the other party either. Yet, that person remained stubborn, bringing another vehicle; two vehicles were now parked across the entrance, with people living in them.

It was only then that Feng Jun sent a message, "This person, and everyone from your village, will be blacklisted by Luohua in the future."

Yet this still had no effect. It wasn’t that the other party thought the whole village would never get cancer, but the treatment cost was too high. Even though the village was relatively wealthy, not many could come up with twenty million all at once.

The next night, Chen Shengwang took action. He actually used an illusion, making the scene eerie, with ghostly figures drifting around and wailing sounds.

Feng Jun noticed the anomaly immediately. Seeing such antics, he couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly—it turns out, among the Daoist sects’ transmitted legacies, these spooky tricks are relatively common.

However, it must be said, such things are indeed quite frightening. On a cold winter’s night, already bone-chilling, adding this eerie element was too much; the people in the two vehicles couldn’t take it anymore and started attacking the Rehabilitation Center’s gate.

At this point, the guards couldn’t remain passive anymore. They already endured for two days and finally couldn’t tolerate it any further. So, they decisively took action, knocking down a group of people with a flurry.

The elderly women and children who were beaten called the police, but it was useless. When the police arrived, they hadn’t even started dealing with it before the higher-ups called, saying to just take the injured people away.

Later, the family wanted to report Luohua Manor for illegal medical practice, but it still proved futile.

The health system did want to handle it, but lacked the courage—the key was, Luohua hadn’t publicly claimed to be practicing medicine.

At the time this occurred, Feng Jun was stabilizing his cultivation level in the Spirit Restoration Array using Spirit Stones. He was spending over thirty Spirit Stones a day, just to refine Spiritual Energy, showing the high resource demand for cultivation in the Out of Dust Stage.

After stabilizing for about ten days, he felt confident there were no issues, so he came out to find Chen Shengwang—he had some interest in the eerie illusion technique used by him.

Unexpectedly, Chen Shengwang, looking rather embarrassed, told him it wasn’t just an illusion, but refined Yin Energy.

He didn’t refine Yin Energy specifically for harming others, but because his cultivation technique had excess Yang Energy. Although he found several women to balance it out, occasionally there were deviations, and he needed Yin Energy to adjust.

Feng Jun wasn’t the only cultivator from the Daoist sects who needed Yin Energy to adjust himself. Some famous Yin Energy locations are often occupied by certain branches of the Daoist sects.

Now, in this era of prosperity, population has flourished, Yang Energy is abundant and Yin Energy diminished. Famous places like Beimang have had their Yin Energy almost entirely depleted. Yet Chen Shengwang painstakingly searched through famous mountains and rivers and finally discovered a Yin Spring in Changping, Jin Province.

"Yin Spring?" Feng Jun was quite interested in this news. In fact, he hadn’t seen such a phenomenon yet. "Can it be used by cultivators in the Out of Dust Stage?"

"Even Qi Refinement Realm can’t cultivate there, let alone Out of Dust Stage," Chen Shengwang shook his head with a wry smile. "This trace of Yin Energy was painstakingly condensed by me, and I dare not collect too much. I only go once every ten years or so."

Feng Jun became even more interested because he needed to pass time in the Earth Realm, and finding interesting things to do was necessary, "Then how was this Yin Spring formed?"

Chen Shengwang shook his head and spoke awkwardly, "I went there because of the Battle of Changping. I felt there were many resentful spirits there... Maybe that’s how it formed?"

Feng Jun rubbed his chin, "By your logic, wouldn’t Jinling have many resentful spirits too, yet I’ve never heard of a Yin Spring there."

"There’s no Yin Spring there, but the area did have heavy Yin Energy in the past," Chen Shengwang remarked seriously. "Even the fortunes of the Ancient Capital of the Six Dynasties couldn’t dispel it. I went there forty years ago, but the Yin Energy was too thin to use."

"Take me there," Feng Jun said seriously. To prevent any hesitation from the other party, he made a promise, "If there are any gains, I’ll help you find a Cultivation Technique."
