NOVEL WEB Chapter 281 Earth Immortal_3
Although within the Yu Hua Immortal Gate, immortal crystals are stored in tokens as points, the trading of physical immortal crystals is also quite common, especially for bribery or gifts.
"You, a mere servant disciple of a Daoist school, can actually afford to give this old man such a generous gift? Speak, what's the matter?"
The grey-robed elder waved his hand, and the wooden box disappeared.
Although twenty immortal crystals might not mean much to him,
for a servant disciple like Li Qian of the Luoyuan Taoist School, it certainly wasn't a small amount.
"Elder Qin, I heard that you are in charge of the selection of servant disciples in the Returning Void Land. I would like to request a spot."
Li Qian said hastily.
"Boy, you're daydreaming. Even if you obtained the entry qualification, do you know how many immortal crystals it takes for a servant disciple's slot?"
The grey-robed elder said with a smile.
"I don't know, please enlighten me, Elder Qin."
Li Qian said quickly.
"At least one thousand."
The grey-robed elder said.
"That expensive?"
Li Qian gasped.
"Hehe, naturally…. You should be from the Refinement Returners, right? The Tianlan Hall Master of the Luoyuan Taoist School buys a servant disciple spot every century... spending at least one thousand five hundred immortal crystals."
Elder Qin said with a faint smile.
"Elder Qin, is there any other way to obtain a servant disciple slot? Something less costly."
Li Qian asked.
To pay at least one thousand immortal crystals for a servant disciple's slot was indeed a bit outrageous.
As for why his master's purchased slots were even more expensive... it should involve the transmission of spiritual energy, immortal spirit qi, and other cultivation resources.
Even though Chen Bell absorbs tens of thousands of immortal crystals annually.
He also understood the principle that an innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth.
If he, a mere servant disciple of a Daoist school, could casually take out over a thousand immortal crystals, it would surely attract attention.
Moreover... for his disciples in the lower realm who will ascend in the future, it's not just one or two, each disciple needing to purchase a servant disciple slot, how many immortal crystals would that require?
"Basically none, unless there's another large-scale selection of servant disciples; perhaps with spirit root qualification, one might become a servant disciple, but those situations are rare, not even once in a century."
Elder Qin shook his head, "I don't know what you Refinement Returners are thinking, spending so many immortal crystals just to buy a servant disciple's slot. You might as well use it for your own cultivation."
"Elder Qin, then please help me get a token for an affiliated hall."
Li Qian thought for a moment and said.
The servant disciple's slot was so costly, it clearly wasn't feasible to do it that way, so he could only try another method.
"Organizing an affiliated hall is manageable, but are you sure you want to do this? It requires an annual affiliated fee of one hundred immortal crystals to the sect, and there's no guaranteed servant disciple slot. Only when the sect conducts a large-scale selection of servant disciples would the affiliated hall have a chance to participate."
Elder Qin said, quite surprised.
An affiliated hall is essentially a subsidiary organization dependent on the Yu Hua Immortal Gate. The affiliated fee is essentially protection money.
But for lineages like Daoist schools within the immortal sect, they receive certain cultivation resources from the sect annually.
Like the Lihuo Palace that Li Qian joined before, it was an affiliated hall established by an Immortal Register disciple for certain benefits.
"Elder Qin, I am sure."
Li Qian nodded and said.
Although his disciples couldn't become servant disciples of the Yu Hua Immortal Gate, by establishing an affiliated hall, he was still connected to the Yu Hua Immortal Gate.
Moreover, he wanted to use the affiliated hall to create a better environment for Refinement Returners in the Longevity Realm, especially those from the Divine Sword Sect.
After all, he now had the means to do so.
