When they returned to Shili Mountain, everyone from Jijin Sect was already waiting at the mountain gate, all of them were extremely anxious.
No one could have expected that this trip would lead to so many incidents. Fortunately, everything went smoothly and everyone returned safely.
After learning the details of what had happened, Ji Jin Sect was even more grateful to Zhu Changyang and Jun Shu, and gave away all the spiritual stones and rare materials in the sect.
Zhu Changyang really couldn't refuse, so he finally took some materials and an advanced textbook on refining. As for spirit stones and other money, he refused to take any of them.
That night.
Zhu Changyang entered the workshop, opened the live broadcast background, and couldn't help but exclaimed "Huh".
[Popularity value: 307635652, do you want to exchange it for nutrient solution? [Yes] [No]]
[Nutrient solution: 9073625, do you want to withdraw cash? [Yes] [No]]
This data is not uncommon on the modern Internet, but he had just used up all the accumulated heat when he was refining the Kunshan energy ring, and nothing major has happened in the past few days, so this heat is somewhat unusually high.
Zhu Changyang was just wondering when he saw a red dot light up in the upper right corner of the panel. It turned out to be a system notification.
[Hello, host,

[agree refuse]]
Zhu Changyang read it word by word and felt a little surprised. He was not surprised that a website wanted to buy his materials, but was surprised by the sentence "The playback volume of other platforms can be converted into your popularity."
At first he regarded the time travel as an accident, but ever since he discovered that the live broadcast system was still there and the popularity could be converted into cultivation, he has always felt very strange.
However, he had been busy surviving since arriving in Piaomiao Continent. In order to improve his cultivation as quickly as possible, he had to run around everywhere and put most of his energy into finding various live broadcast materials. As a result, he had never had time to explore in depth why the live broadcast system traveled with him and played such an important role in his cultivation.
This prompt brought up a long-standing confusion in his mind again—the playback volume from other platforms could actually be imported into this system and converted into his cultivation, which was not easy.
He was very sure that Pujiang couldn't do this with his current technical level.
Not only that, as his popularity grew and his cultivation level increased, more and more functions in the workshop were activated, production lines were turned on, and inventory levels grew.
He gradually discovered that the power of the workshop was far beyond his imagination.
After signing up for the "Science and Technology to Revitalize the Country" anchor selection, Zhu Changyang visited Pujiang's plane technology with other selected anchors, and experienced the various props that Pujiang equipped for the anchors. Those props are only part of a plane.
Including his workshop, its functions were very simple at the beginning.
But now the space and energy levels of the workshop have far exceeded the configuration that Pujiang prepared for him at the beginning, and there is no limit yet.
Zhu Changyang suspected that if he continued to activate and develop it, the workshop itself might even exceed one of Pujiang's dimensions.
This is definitely not something that Pujiang’s current servers can support.
Another point is that the so-called great way is hard to find. In the world of cultivation, all kinds of quick-success techniques are accompanied by serious backlash, as can be seen from the events of Yaoyin Pavilion and Yuxu Sect.
He made progress with the data from the live broadcast system. Although it was not a "quick-fix" spell that he chose subjectively, and strictly speaking, these popularity were also gained through his own efforts and strength, it did objectively bring him a lot of convenience.
So he has been very careful and paying attention to his own condition these days, but so far, he has absorbed the cultivation transformed from this popularity well and has not experienced any discomfort, just like the progress gained from all regular practice.
It is impossible for Pu Jiangbi to have such good skills.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through Zhu Changyang's mind, trying to find the connection between the time travel and the workshop and the live broadcast system, but there was too little information at the moment, making it difficult to judge.
After much thought without any result, Zhu Changyang could only give up for the time being. He sighed secretly in his heart, calmed down and re-read the contract.
The conditions proposed in the contract are quite good. If you sign the contract, it will undoubtedly greatly improve your popularity. The processing of related income is also very humane. It can be converted into nutrient solution or temporarily stored in the account.
Zhu Changyang clicked [Agree] without much hesitation, then returned to the live broadcast panel and extracted all the accumulated popularity and nutrient solution.
The surging breath poured in from the spiritual platform, filled the sea of consciousness, and then expanded to the whole body.
Zhu Changyang sat cross-legged, concentrated his mind, and began to circulate these auras.
The spiritual consciousness followed the flow of breath and glimpsed the golden elixir in the body. As his cultivation gradually became deeper, the loose golden elixir became more and more solid, and the dantian became more and more empty and spacious.
The spiritual consciousness explored the surroundings with the golden elixir as the center, but it felt endless and could not touch the edge at all.
As his spiritual sense probed farther and farther, his consciousness gradually became blurred. He could vaguely see specks of golden sand floating in the void, like stars in the sky, shining forever.
There is also a distant and hazy dream.
In the dream, a vague voice said, "Under the star Canopus is Yongze."
He also said, "As the star Canopus does not move, my spirit is immortal."
Zhu Changyang suddenly opened his eyes and felt his forehead slightly wet. There was an indescribable emotion in his heart. He felt like he had a dream, but he couldn't remember anything.
He felt a little puzzled and looked out the window, but saw that the sky was just getting light. Unconsciously, a whole night had passed.
He concentrated his mind and energy again, and felt his sea of consciousness become full and his muscles and bones became stronger. Then he let out a long breath.
As early as when he was in the cliff tomb illusion, his cultivation had reached the peak of the golden elixir realm and he was only a step away from advancing.
This wave of popularity finally enabled him to break through and enter the early stage of Nascent Soul.
In the world of cultivation, each advancement to a higher realm often takes decades or even hundreds of years. Even geniuses like the best from the major sects would need at least several decades to advance from the Qi Refining stage to the Nascent Soul stage.
At this time, it had been just over a year since Zhu Changyang traveled to the Piaomiao Continent. This speed of progress was unprecedented even in the ancient times when many powerful people emerged.
Zhu Changyang spread his palms upwards, and golden spiritual fire rose into the sky. The flame looked the same as usual, but the spiritual power contained in it was far beyond what it could be compared to the past. As long as it was combined with the corresponding exercises, most of the conventional magical instruments could be refined.
.
Zhu Changyang and his party stayed in Jijin Sect for several more days. Finally, Si Kou Luo sent a message saying that Fairy Xia Jue's spirit had successfully returned to her body and her condition was stable. Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Changyang then bid farewell to Jijin Sect and prepared to return to Buchendi according to the previous plan.
However, before, I just wanted to go back and take a look at the flashlight workshop of Baigongmen, and find a place to learn the grinding technology for Jie Li. But now I have more plans.
Although everyone in Jijin Sect was very reluctant to let Zhu Changyang go, he was determined to leave and they couldn't force him to stay, so they had to say goodbye reluctantly.
Before leaving, everyone left a blessing message for Zhu Changyang on the jade tablet. Zhu Changyang had no choice but to reply one by one. In the end, his hands were sore that he couldn't help but send a message to Si Kou Luo.
Zhu Changyang: [Master Sikou, can you add a group chat function to the Jade Book? ]
Si Kolo: [What is the meaning of group chat]
Zhu Changyang explained it, and Si Kou Luo suddenly realized: [This is a very good idea]
Zhu Changyang was actually just complaining and didn't really take it to heart. Then he and Jun Shu set off with the developer and Jie Li and took the teleportation array to Buchendi.
Coming out of the teleportation array, you're greeted by a bustling market filled with vendors, goods everywhere, and shouts coming from all directions.
Jie Li had been to many places when he was a profiteer, and his eyes lit up when he saw this: "It's worthy of the famous Buchendi, it's really lively."
Zhu Changyang landed in the Undying Land when he first crossed over, and lived here for a while. This place can be regarded as his "old place" in the Misty Continent. When he revisited it this time, he was also very emotional: "It's been more than a year, and it seems that there hasn't been much change here..."
Following the shout, a man passed by in a hurry on a bicycle.
Several people:
When I looked around, I realized that there was more than one person riding a bicycle. From time to time, there was a bicycle passing by on the street.
Jie Li blinked and said, "There are so many bicycles here."
Not only that, the appearance of these bicycles is quite varied, with runes, auspicious clouds, flowers, birds and other patterns painted on the bodies, and they are probably refined with spiritual materials, exuding a faint spiritual aura.
Not to mention them, even the live studio was a little confused:
[What's going on? Is there another bug in Pujiang? Where do all these bicycles come from in this peaceful world of cultivation? ]
[I almost thought I was at some movie studio somewhere! ]
[I remember now. Do you remember that when Chang Yang was in Buchendi, a junior fellow from Baigongmen made a bicycle by himself! ]
After being surprised at first, Zhu Changyang quickly reacted and smiled knowingly: "These cars should be produced by Baigongmen."
Jun Shu took a look and commented disdainfully: "Too much of a fancy car is as bad as too little. Our car is better. It's simple and natural."
Zhu Changyang: “…”
Brother Jun was so strong-willed that he felt embarrassed to tell the truth.
In fact, Zhu Changyang was not returning to basics at all; it was just that his skills and the materials he had at the time could only do that.
If he had known how to use a little spiritual fire at that time, he would have added a rune of acceleration to the bicycle.
Zhu Changyang pretended not to hear and walked towards the direction of Baigongmen with a trail of tail. Just as he arrived at the intersection where Baigongmen’s headquarters was located, a Baigongmen member saw them from afar and immediately widened his eyes in surprise: "Friend Zhu, Friend Jun, you are back!"
As he spoke, he turned and ran back to the gate of Baigong Sect, shouting excitedly inside: "Quick, inform the Sect Master and the Young Sect Master that fellow Daoists Zhu and Jun are back—"
"Really? Where are they?" Someone immediately ran out with a string of firecrackers, "The firecrackers prepared by the young master can finally be used!"
Zhu Changyang: “…”
There's no need to be so grand.
Studio:
[2333 Returning home in glory!]
[Return home in glory!]
Everyone in Baigongmen had long regarded Zhu Changyang and Jun Shu as their own people, and they were very happy to hear that they had arrived.
After a while, Chang Chunwu, Chang Fengchi, mother and son, and a group of disciples hurried out to greet them.
Chang Fengchi was the most excited. He pulled Zhu Changyang aside and asked him about the details of several pieces of news that had recently caused a stir in the cultivation world. He emphasized solemnly, "Brother Zhu, please tell us everything in detail and don't miss any details. Only in this way can we make a fair judgment."
Zhu Changyang's mouth twitched slightly. The young master was still gossipy as always. In modern times, he could at least get a Weibo commentator status. So he pointed at Jun Shu and teased, "Brother Jun is one of the parties involved. You can ask him."
Chang Fengchi looked over eagerly in the direction of his finger, and Jun Shu glared at him coldly: "Humph."
Chang Fengchi felt a chill on his back, and immediately restrained his expression, saying with a straight face: "No, actually I'm not interested at all."
Zhu Changyang: “…”
I have to say, Jun Shu is still very intimidating when he gets a cold face.
"By the way, brothers, I have some good news!" Chang Fengchi then remembered something else and said happily, "I made another breakthrough in my realm a few days ago, and now I have reached the peak of foundation building!"
The peak of foundation building is nothing in the world of cultivation, but Chang Fengchi has average aptitude. He just reached the middle stage of foundation building a year ago. He has made such a breakthrough in such a short period of time. This speed was something he could not even imagine in the past, so he is very satisfied.
Zhu Changyang was very happy for him when he heard this and said with a smile: "That's great, congratulations."
Chang Fengchi asked again with concern: "I wonder how your cultivation is going?"
Before Zhu Changyang could answer, Chang Chunwu on the side exclaimed in surprise: "You have already reached the Nascent Soul stage?!"
Chang Chunwu had previously felt sorry for Zhu Changyang's lack of spiritual roots, but later he felt relieved when he learned that he had gotten the opportunity.
When they met again at this time, he was still very concerned about Zhu Changyang's situation, so while talking, he released his spiritual sense to probe into his cultivation level.
But the results of this exploration are really surprising.
"What?" Chang Fengchi's eyes almost popped out of their sockets, he couldn't believe it, "Brothers, you are all Yuan-Yuan Ying!"
Is this the real speed of progress? !
Even the exaggerated promotional slogans of those no-name textbooks sold on the street stalls wouldn’t dare to be written like this!
Zhu Changyang smiled modestly: "I'm lucky and encountered some opportunities."
This is where the world of cultivation is better than the materialistic world. All things that cannot be explained can be explained away by chance.
Sure enough, all the people from Baigongmen were suddenly enlightened upon hearing this, and quickly accepted this setting and stopped asking further questions.
However, several disciples were still envious and thought: "It seems that the route that fellow Taoists have taken is very unusual. If it were me, we wouldn't have to bother looking for a secret blessed place next time we go out for training. How about just following the route that fellow Taoists have taken?"
Others agreed: "Good idea!"
“That makes sense!”
"Where have you all been?"
Zhu Changyang was sweating profusely.
This is using his route as a guide.
Not to mention, it’s quite familiar. In modern times, netizens love to follow the anchor to check in.
Seeing the people from Baigongmen eager to try, Zhu Changyang had to remind them with regret: "Friends, the two secret realms I visited have collapsed."
Everyone from Baigongmen: "..."
Studio:
[2333 If Chang Yang hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed. This is the real killer in the secret realm! ]
[Is this what it means to walk your own path and leave no path for others to follow? ]
The author has something to say:
Back to where the dream began, here are some of the characters that have appeared in Baigongmen:
Sect Master: Chang Chunwu
Young Sect Master: Chang Fengchi
Junior Brother: Jin Ruyi
There is also a deacon elder, but I don’t think I gave the elder a name, haha
Candidates who competed with Chang Yang: Shi Hou
