Chapter 4: Heading to the Holy Land! Special Item: Character Binding Card!
"Luckily, she didn't end up in the jaws of a monster." Shen Yun saw Ling Qingxue land on a road and gave her the two talismans he had just bought.
"Use these small items for now; you still need to work hard to cultivate."
He couldn't possibly say that he only had this few props in his pocket, otherwise he would have to maintain his air of a master!
The recharge system in [Seeking Immortals Mobile] is quite unique. Recharge prompts are only activated when the character encounters danger, experiences enlightenment, or encounters unexpected opportunities. It's not like other games that have a recharge shop where you can buy all sorts of things.
Shen Yun could only wait for the recharge prompt before buying anything.
However, for players, it's difficult to save money in this game, and the in-game currency in personal accounts cannot be traded, so whether there's a cash shop or not makes little difference.
"Thank you, senior!" Ling Qingxue gratefully put the Void Talisman into her storage bag.
She understood what her senior meant: external things are ultimately just aids; one still has to rely on one's own efforts!
Not to mention that the senior gave her all the imperial weapons; one should be content with what one has.
Ling Qingxue gazed at the distant city, speaking as she walked:
"Senior, you've gifted me such a precious treasure as the Qingxue Imperial Weapon. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need it."
This is an imperial weapon that cultivators dream of!
Only an invincible force with a long and distinguished lineage could possess such power. What right did a mere cultivator like her have?!
Shen Yun, who was brewing goji berry health tea, pressed the voice button:
"I see that you have exceptional talent and wish to take you as my trusted confidant. Are you willing?"
This tactic is commonly used by players. By utilizing the daily "item check-in" and "character information" events, they create a persona similar to the "ring grandpa" to gain the character's favor and recognition.
"Take me as your confidant?!" Ling Qingxue was overjoyed. To be noticed by such a powerful figure who casually gave her an imperial weapon was an incredible stroke of luck for her.
"Serving as a senior's subordinate would be excellent," Ling Qingxue said hesitantly.
"But Qingxue might be a bit slow-witted; after three years of cultivation, she's still only at the first level of the Gathering Cycle..."
She didn't know what was wrong with her; despite consuming so many resources, her cultivation was progressing slowly.
When Liu Fangya fed her poison to improve her cultivation, she thought it was because of her special constitution.
To her despair, she discovered that the other party was actually a heretical cultivator using her!
"What, aren't you afraid I'll take advantage of your physique?"
This question, posed from the heart, left Ling Qingxue stunned.
However, she quickly raised her head, squinted at the bright sun in the sky, and whispered:
“My grandma said there will always be someone who shines like the sun on others, and I believe that senior is such a person! Of course, if it weren’t for the Imperial Weapon, I would definitely have some doubts.”
Towards the end, she playfully stuck out her tongue, looking a little embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, senior."
"Haha, you're quite frank. What's wrong with being cautious?" Shen Yun laughed, looking at the girl in the projection.
"In that case, I will tell you what your constitution is first, and then you can make a decision."
Since he already has a maxed-out favorability rating, it doesn't matter whether Ling Qingxue becomes his subordinate or not.
Saying he was looking for a confidant was just a casual excuse to get closer to the other party.
After Shen Yun finished explaining that she had nine Sacred Body Origins and was a Sacred Body Dao Embryo, Ling Qingxue's face was filled with shock.
As a cultivator, she naturally knew about physical constitutions at the levels of Holy Body and Dao Body.
But she never expected this.
I never imagined I possessed such incredible good fortune!
But at the same time, she also saw the sincerity of this mysterious senior.
The fact that the other party didn't need to tell her any of this, yet still told her honestly, shows that they are a magnanimous person!
Thinking of this, Ling Qingxue bowed respectfully to the void:
"Qingxue is willing to serve you faithfully, senior!!"
'Having a high level of goodwill is so convenient!' Shen Yun thought to himself.
Given Ling Qingxue's past experiences, it won't be easy to get her to lower her guard.
Fortunately, he was rich, otherwise he would have had to spend a lot of time building their relationship.
"From now on, just call me Young Master. Don't worry, I will help you attain enlightenment and become Emperor." Shen Yunqian said softly, putting on a show of confidence.
"But this is not your final destination. The Immortal Realm is where we should go."
'Immortal...Immortal Realm?!' Ling Qingxue swallowed hard, feeling that she had definitely encountered an extraordinary being today.
He said things like "help her prove her enlightenment" so easily!
The key point is, this isn't an old cultivator; he seems to be a young master!
This left Ling Qingxue speechless: 'Young Master's background must be extremely terrifying...'
"The effect is remarkable!" Seeing that she was stunned, Shen Yun leisurely took a sip of goji berry tea.
"However, your cultivation level is too low right now. You can find a holy land or power to expose your physical condition and join them. It won't be difficult."
The Nine Heavens Sacred Body Dao Embryo consumes a great deal of resources, making it the perfect choice for her to join a sacred land to acquire those resources.
After all, the recharge prompts are too random, so it's most reasonable for her to find a powerful force to develop in peace.
Furthermore, Shen Yun remembered that on the third day after the server opened, a player's character received a hidden reward for joining the Holy Land: an extremely rare [Character Binding Card]!
That's right, players can bind more than one character!
This card allows the player to designate an unbound character.
That's why this card became a global sensation online back then!
Finally, I heard that this foreign netizen posted anonymously online to show off, and after the hacker found his address, he emptied several magazines.
Clearly, Shen Yun wanted to obtain this card.
'Hopefully there's still time.' Shen Yun glanced at his phone; it wasn't even midnight yet. 'Otherwise, Little Red Bean might be bound to someone else...'
In his previous life, he didn't log into the "Seeking Immortals" mobile game immediately. He only noticed the game after his colleagues caused a stir, and he logged in around noon.
And Xiao Hongdou was the first character he was paired with back then: Luo Hongxi!
This girl is a disciple of the Luo family in Blackrock City, and she gradually rose to prominence with Shen Yun's help. Back then, she even helped him obtain a fourth-tier Cleansing and Marrow-Cleansing Pill that could restore reality.
It's a pity that it was stolen by that bitch Zhou Qiaoqiao!
Later, his company was shut down by Zhou Qiaoqiao using her connections. Although he hid in another place, Zhou Qiaoqiao knew that he was tied to Luo Hongxi and found people in the game to suppress him, forcing Luo Hongxi to flee and suffer a lot.
Even so, she never blamed Shen Yun. Instead, she often came to comfort him and make him happy.
In order to earn more coins, Luo Hongxi spent her days cultivating and training to earn spirit stones. Once she had enough money, she would visit the black market and cultivator stalls, hoping to get lucky and buy some treasures that would be reflected in reality.
The dangers they encountered were countless.
Although her strength was improved as a result, she was ultimately no match for four opponents.
Shen Yun couldn't bear to see Luo Hongxi being chased and killed by the enemy, so he begged Zhou Qiaoqiao to let Luo Hongxi go.
But that woman was too vicious; she completely ignored him and ultimately murdered Luo Hongxi!
'You bitch! I'll kill you the moment I rise to power!!' Just thinking about this woman filled Shen Yun with rage.
As for using a [Character Binding Card] to bind other cultivators with better aptitude?
Shen Yun felt it was unnecessary; he had billions of game coins, which was more than enough to improve Luo Hongxi's aptitude!
This girl suffered so much with me in my past life; if I forget all that she did for me in this life, I'd be a beast.
"To join the Holy Land..." Ling Qingxue nodded slightly, as this would indeed allow her to obtain a large amount of cultivation resources.
Compared to that old hag Liu Fangya, the young master truly cares for me...
It's infuriating to compare yourself to others. That evil cultivator only thought about taking advantage of her physique, while the young master was always thinking about her.
'Pah! She dares to compare herself to the young master!' Composing herself, Ling Qingxue strode towards the distant city, intending to learn more about it and find a suitable holy place.
She would never have dared to have such thoughts before.
But after meeting the young master, it seems like my whole life is going to start going in a better direction!
"Grandma, can you see this from the sky? Qingxue's good luck has come!" Ling Qingxue smiled sweetly at the sky, her steps becoming lighter and lighter.
Compared to her cheerful expression, Shen Yun was staring at the game projection with a strange look on his face.
