My Core is the Boss

Chapter 273.1: The Gathering Of Yin Spirits, Do Me A Favor

With the fall of the Dark Sun, the Divine Flower Society had changed hands. The entire Canglan World was in turmoil as tremendous changes unfolded. Among all the factions, the Yuan God Sharing Society and the Divine Flower Society attracted the most attention. The one who held real control over both organizations was the Blood-Clothed Sword God.His reputation, which barely extended beyond the Phoenix Heaven and Eastern Lands, now swept across more than twenty domains. Even so, his fame paled in comparison with the "assistance system" and "crowdfunded Divine Methods" within the Divine Flower Society.

Under the pressure of the Blood-Clothed Sword God, every branch of the Divine Flower Society had paid a heavy price. Makeshift versions of jade slips were being sold at nearly cost price. Now, even non-official members of the Divine Flower Society could join in and assist other cultivators.

As a result, some members generously bought one for every cultivator in their clan and invited them to assist. When those cultivators learned about the exchange system, they quickly hopped on board.

Forget the generous personal rewards, they would be satisfied with the Divine Method alone. Besides, if the progress bar was filled, wouldn't everyone obtain a Divine Method?

The disciples and masters even dragged out their fellow ancient monsters, who had been in closed-off cultivation for a thousand years. The first thing those monsters heard was, "Get up and assist me!"

After all, each person could only assist once. It went without saying that those in closed-off cultivation had never assisted anyone before.

Thus, the entire Canglan World became extraordinarily lively. Many powerful cultivators who had been secluded for years were awakened, inexplicably stuffed with makeshift jade slips, and asked to lend their assistance.

At first, these awakened cultivators were reluctant. However, they were stunned upon learning about the recent events and the whole exchange system. They ultimately had to admit that this system was quite amazing.

Nowadays, even the greetings between cultivators in the Canglan World have changed.

"Have you assisted someone yet?"

"What's your progress bar at?"

"I don't know why, but I've been stuck at ninety-nine percent for three days!"

Countless cultivators rushed forward one after another, continuously joining this great undertaking. After all, cultivation techniques were the foundation of everything. Moreover, to cultivators of the Canglan World, a Divine Methodwas akin to a path to immortality. Even Yin Spirit cultivators could not resist such temptation. Countless cultivators ultimately joined the grand enterprise.

Qi Yuan was traveling back toward Qinghong City in the Phoenix Heaven. While on the road, he posted a thread.

After Obtaining a Heaven-tier Cultivation Method, Between my Busty Junior Sister and the Sect Master's Daughter, I Chose...

Indeed, a clickbait title had to capture readers' curiosity while withholding the answer. Only then would it attract members of the Divine Flower Society. As for the content, it was basically a thinly-veiled advertisement.

After uploading several Jade-tier techniques, my progress bar has reached 50%. Just when I thought I’d receive a Jade-tier technique, I obtained a Heaven-tier cultivation method instead—one used by the legendary Yin Spirit cultivators!

Haa... I just love to show off. By that very night, the entire sect already knew about it.

The sect master's daughter even knocked on my door at midnight, saying she wanted to come in and see my cat. How could I let her in? My busty junior sister was already inside looking at the cat. If the two of them ran into each other, I'd be in huge trouble.

Sometimes, too much luck can be a misfortune. One is my childhood sweetheart, the princess of a mortal royal family. The other is the sect master's daughter, someone with a lofty status. Who should I choose? I'm terribly troubled. Honored Seniors, I ask for your advice!

During this period, Qi Yuan had been constantly sharing his progress. In just a few days, his life had become extraordinarily dramatic. He slapped arrogant stewards, outclassed his senior brothers, killed his enemies, gained the favor of senior sisters, earned the respect of the elders, and even stood guard for his junior sister while she bathed. In short, it was exciting and exhilarating, as if he had won in life.

His contents fired up the cultivators who were trying to complete their goals, driving them to frantically collect and upload cultivation techniques.

The moment the post was published, countless comments appeared.

└Getting a Heaven-tier cultivation method at 50%? Fellow Daoist, your luck is insane!

└I only got a Heaven-tier cultivation method at 80%!

└I’d go with the junior sister!

└Choose the senior sister!

└Why not both?

└Actually, I think the sect master's wife is pretty good and charming. Given the chance, the sect master and I could become fellow Daoists.

└I have a great suggestion. Castrate yourself, then you won't have this problem.

└Offering a high price to buy cultivation techniques and assistance! Send me a private message!

Looking at these comments, Qi Yuan felt as if he had returned to Blue Planet. "They're still inferior to those keyboard warriors online. None of them can come up with good memes."

He lingered, just in case anyone dared insult him and needed silencing. Thankfully, no one did, and his mood wasn’t ruined.

Just at that moment, he received a message from Jiang Lingsu, along with a Heaven-tier cultivation method.

Spirit Maiden: Senior Brother! Hehe, my progress bar reached 70%, and I'm ranked first among the Hundred Nations! My reward was a Heaven-tier technique, I've sent it to you!

Even for the Jiang Clan, Heaven-tier techniques were quite precious. Still, remembering how desperately her senior brother needed techniques, she sent it to him right away.

Even though the technique originally came from him, Qi Yuan felt warmth in his heart. Sure enough, his junior sister was the best, like a little cotton-padded jacket.

Qiyuann Sovereign: Thank you, Junior Sister. I am touched!

Spirit Maiden: Well, you shouldn’t. I just did it on a whim. I'm ranked first in the Hundred Nations!

Indeed, Qi Yuan had even added a ranking system to the personal progress bars. For example, Jiang Lingsu's progress had surpassed 70%, placing her first in the Great Shang Kingdom. People always loved rankings, especially those behind, as every step forward made them delighted.

Qi Yuan could only praise her.

Qiyuann Sovereign: Very impressive.

Just then, Jiang Lingsu sent a warning.

Spirit Maiden: Don't come back this month, or you'll be in big trouble!

Her father would arrive soon.

Qiyuann Sovereign: Your senior brother is already a True Lord now, with countless subordinates. I'm not afraid of trouble.

Jiang Lingsu seized the opportunity to ask for handouts.

Spirit Maiden: Hmph. Since you have countless subordinates, call them over to assist me.

Qiyuann Sovereign: Sure, I'll call people to help you right away!

Suddenly, he remembered a joke from his previous life. A war god returned home and found his wife struggling to shave off the last cent on a Penduoduo deal. Enraged, he summoned one hundred thousand soldiers to help cut the price, but to no avail.

Qi Yuan thought that war god was rather foolish. Even if everyone participated to help cut the price, how much money could he save? It would be better to have them deliver packages for Penduoduo instead, allowing them to earn more.

Qiyuann Sovereign: Junior Sister, I discovered a loophole. Not many people know about it yet!

Since his junior sister liked watching the progress bar rise, he decided to help.

Sure enough, upon reading his message, Jiang Lingsu's eyes widened on Seven-Colored Peak.

Spirit Maiden: What loophole?

Qiyuann Sovereign: I discovered that you can also upload martial arts manuals to fill up the progress bar!

At the moment, he had only instructed some Venerables of the Divine Flower Society and Wujun to collect martial arts manuals in the mortal world.

Jiang Lingsu was stunned.

Spirit Maiden: You can do that?

Well, her senior brother never lied.

Qiyuann Sovereign: You can, but don't spread this news.

Of course, even if it was leaked, it wouldn't matter much.

Spirit Maiden: I'll try it... If it really works, I'll personally cook for you!

Ever since he cured her illness, their bond had grown closer.

Qiyuann Sovereign: I don't eat beef.

Spirit Maiden: Then I'll cook the fish you rear.

Qiyuann Sovereign: No, they're full of bones. Give me something boneless.

Spirit Maiden: I was kind enough to cook for you, and you’re still picky?! Hurry up and find people to assist me! Call all those countless subordinates of yours!
