Chapter 52 -52: Inheritance Peak

Regarding Xiang Feifei, she had not even grasped the basics of Talisman Techniques. Even with the influence of the Xiang family, she had to start as an assistant, somewhat similar to the role of an assistant teacher to a university professor.

Of course, the two were not working together. Placing someone in the Fu Tower was no easy task. The Xiang family couldn’t appoint positions on their own. Being able to insert one of their people already was the result of several generations of effort from the Xiang family.

The reason Xiang Letian said he would have a Paper Kite in a while was because someone at his position within the Talisman department would be provided with some form of transportation. However, due to the high demand for Paper Kites and the processing time for his employment papers, it would take about one to two months.

“So, you start as an out-of-system employee before becoming part of the system? Starting as a research professor in the education system?”

Upon understanding his new job, Wang Zijia was somewhat baffled. He didn’t make it into the system in his previous life but now, after traversing, he had directly become a part of the senior members of the system’s group.

Moreover, the position was simply handed over as a dowry. This was… outrageous!

The free meal from the Xiang family was unexpectedly tasty to him!

For several days, Wang Zijia checked in at work during the daytime, came back in the afternoon to create talismans, practice Taiji, eat with Xiang Feifei, and get to know each other better.

His work also began to get on track. Instead of trying to benefit himself hastily, he familiarized himself with the inner workings of the process.

The talismans he made each day were completely sold to the sect at the base price, earning an income of more than ten magic money a day.

Everything began to develop steadily, as he gradually established himself in the Wanyu Sect.

Meanwhile, through the Xiang family’s channels, Wang Zijia began to extensively refresh his fundamental knowledge, particularly regarding sect customs and basic cultivation during the Child Stage.

Apart from books, Xiang Feifei became his direct source of information. Thus, their relationship gradually became more familiar. Even though they couldn’t be described as completely harmonious, they could at least communicate without being strangers.

As for cultivation, after a little less than half a month of experimentation, Wang Zijia had compiled a set of spells he needed to further in the short term.

For defense, he needed either a high-grade Primary “Void Spirit Crystal Shield” or a “Red Rock Crystal Armor”, each costing 1200 magic money. One was an energy shield type, and the other was an armor type, both were good choices, but he hadn’t decided which one to go for.

For movement, he planned to go with “Shooting Star Blink”, also high-grade primary, costing 1300 magic money.

As for fire magic, there was no need to worry. The aptly chosen “Explosive Fireball” that was most suitable for earth elemental cultivators was also high grade, 1300 magic money. With the Clay Activation Charm, there was nothing to worry about.

Therefore, he calculated that he would need a total of 3800 magic money to complete his fighting set, 3400 even with the full nine percent discount from his position.

For healing and escape, he would just have to rely on talismans for now, he was just too poor.

Even if he produced talismans frenziedly every day, it would take several months to accumulate this sum. This was only possible because, on joining the sect, he boldly cashed out on the previous owner’s decades of time difference. This allowed him to show his cards boldly, letting the sect reclaim the talismans directly.

If he were to set up a stall and sell them himself, it would take even longer.

“It seems I need to start understanding the work to start making money to the limit. As for the learning progress of the Junior Brothers, if they really can’t do it, let them practice Taiji. I can quietly exchange resources for them!”

“Considering this, they have really got a huge bargain!”

“After all, even if they used those resources for practice, it doesn’t necessarily mean they could progress. But if I used the resources, I could ensure their progress. It’s simply win-win!”

“Yes, that’s right, I’m not making money, I’m worrying and getting troubled for them!”

“Perfect!”

“I’m just too suitable to be a teacher, to mentor disciples!!!”

“I’m just too selfless!!!”

Wang Zijia, who was driven mad by poverty, shamelessly set his money-making plan that would affect his reputation for a lifetime.

At the same time, he began to inquire about some of the peak children in the sect. He paid special attention to those with good spiritual root aptitudes but their cultivation was hindered due to comprehension issues.

······

The next morning, Wang Zijia informed his assistant, An Xingsheng, to take care of the institute, while he decided to skip work that day.

Having been working for almost ten days, taking a day off was more than reasonable!

At the travel department of Fu Tower, he applied for a temporary paper kite and, controlling it, flew towards the inner circle of the sect, the most core region.

The entire Wanyu Sect was surrounded by plains and hills, with various school building complexes scattered on it, and the very core area was a mountain range, a very high one.

It was a long time ago, this was the location of Wanyu Sect’s gate.

Now, besides the headquarters of the twelve courtyards, the Scripture Pavilion, Law Hall, Elders’ Hall, and Demon Suppressing Tower, most of the orthodox sect has been moved out.

The entire mountain range was swept and left with only seven tall peaks standing, guarded by countless orthodox lines, becoming a holy land in the hearts of many disciples in the Wanyu Sect.

Regrettably, it was incredibly difficult to enter, let alone live there.

From a distance, you could see a huge energy shield shrouding the mountain range at all times.

Inside the shield, white clouds floated leisurely. Among the cloud-shrouded hills, immortal cranes were dancing, between the high mountains and flowing waters, one could faintly see a forest of white jade pavilions, like a fairytale, with an atmosphere of an immortal sect.

Wang Zijia arrived at the front of the light shield, where the paper kite automatically hovered in place.

He took out the inheritance order symbol and stuck it on.

The inheritance order symbol flickered slightly and tiny threads of spiritual power flowed along the edges of the card to the energy shield, and one after another, runes appeared.

[Primary inheritance order, may enter the inheritance pavilion, obtain one law!]

In a moment, little pieces of information appeared on the shield, and a small hole appeared in the energy dome right in front of Wang Zijia.

An incredibly pure spiritual power gushed through the hole towards him.

With a single thought, the paper kite moved forward again, and on the inheritance order, amidst blinking spiritual light, an arrow appeared, guiding him towards the second peak among the seven peaks, the Inheritance Peak.

Wang Zijia didn’t fly directly to his destination. Instead, he landed halfway up the mountain. Not because there was any rule requiring them to climb the mountain on foot, those rules no longer existed.

The main reason was that it was not easy to enter here and he intended to take this opportunity to roam around and sight see.

Of course, it was not just because he was brave enough to do so. Many people in the sect did the same thing. The more frugal ones even cultivated here for a whole day, and only left when the time limit was almost up.

The sect didn’t mind this, as long as they didn’t cause any trouble. Legend has it that many people had met the sect elders by chance and were given some items on the spot, thereby having some unexpected encounters!

This wasn’t just an isolated case, it happened quite often!

······

Inheritance Peak was different from the other six peaks. How should I put it? This was clearly a key area of the sect, but it had a deep gloomy atmosphere.

As soon as Wang Zijia landed, even before he began to sightsee, he felt it.

It was said that this was because apart from Scripture Pavilion, a large part of Inheritance Peak belonged to the sect’s tomb.

Why the tomb of a large orthodox sect and the Scripture Pavilion belonged to the same department, he wasn’t quite sure. He had vaguely heard that it seemed to have a lot to do with the morticians.
