Chapter One, The Long-Lost Golden Finger

I understand, Father, I will definitely complete the task

The sect to which Lu Yi belongs is called Baiyun Sect. The "Baiyun Qi Induction Technique" is the foundational cultivation method of Baiyun Sect, which can be cultivated to the Foundation Establishment stage. The "Baiyun Sword Technique" and "Baiyun Step Technique" are also basic techniques, similarly used by Qi Refinement practitioners

Lu Yi could not figure it out, so he thought for a moment and gently called out in his heart: "System Sprite?"

Accepting tasks and receiving rewards? Isn't that just playing a game? He is quite skilled at this. He has played many games in his previous life, such as World of Warcraft, Jian Wang 3, and Tian Dao, among others.

Task

Lu Yi silently crossed out the original goal in his mind

Lu Gaoyang and Wang Siqi both looked at Lu Yi in confusion, their minds filled with questions

Participation in the outer sect competition of the Baiyun Sect, with rewards determined by ranking

Current task: Participate in the outer sect competition of the Baiyun Sect

Cultivation level: Qi Refinement Sixth Layer

Lu Gaoyang and Wang Siqi also do not recommend Lu Yi to register, as he may not even pass the preliminary selection, which would not only bring embarrassment but also affect his cultivation mindset

So that task module is like this? It triggers tasks by itself

Lu Yi sat down: "I understand, Father"

[Cultivation Method]: "White Cloud Qi Induction Technique" (Level 2)

Lu Gaoyang's mouth twitched slightly, his expression darkening. He rolled his eyes in silence and lowered his head to eat.

The last column, "Current Task," literally seems to pertain to tasks, but I am unsure how to accept a task

Practice the White Cloud Sword Technique ten times (Progress: 0 / 10)

Lu Yi

This world is vast, inhabited by powerful cultivators, demons, devils, malevolent practitioners, and various dangers

[Techniques]: "White Cloud Sword Technique" (lv2), "White Cloud Step Technique" (lv3)

Lu Gaoyang rolled his eyes in silence and said: "You just focus on your cultivation! If you really have nothing to do, practice the White Cloud Sword Technique ten times in the morning!"

Lu Yi tapped a few times on the panel with his thoughts, but there was no response. He felt somewhat speechless, wondering how this golden finger was supposed to be used

Accept: Yes / No

After waiting for a moment, Lu Yi did not receive a response, well... it seems to be just a simple panel

Unexpectedly, plans could not keep up with changes, and the golden finger actually appeared

Accept: Yes / No

Beside the two individuals, there was a fair-looking maid named Bai Lingling

Wuhu, take off

To be honest, Lu Yi's talent is indeed slightly better than that of Lu Gaoyang, and Wang Siqi's words left Lu Gaoyang with no way to refute them

Task

The two individuals are Lu Yi's parents in this life, Lu Gaoyang and Wang Siqi

His eyes reddened, and he almost cried out: "My golden finger, which I have been separated from for sixteen years, you have finally come to find me!"

As a deacon of the outer sect of the Baiyun Sect, my status in the outer sect is somewhat significant, yet not high. I only have one maid, and my usual responsibilities include laundry, cooking, and cleaning.

Lu Yi looked at the words that suddenly appeared in his line of sight, rubbed his eyes several times, and finally confirmed that he was not dreaming

Upon leaving, Lu Yi arrived at the main house next door. Inside the hall of the main house, there sat a handsome middle-aged man and a young woman with a delicate appearance at the table

Lu Yi grabbed two meat buns and ran outside, eager to complete the task and receive the reward before anything else

At that moment, a gentle female voice came from outside the door: "Yi'er, are you awake?"

At that moment, Lu Yi suddenly lowered his head, his gaze flickering, for in his line of sight, the panel underwent a change

Lu Yi looked at the withdrawn Lu Gaoyang and smiled slightly. His parents often bickered throughout their lives, but their relationship was strong, and they treated him well. Lu Yi felt very content.

He turned over and got out of bed, planning to continue his research after finishing breakfast

Lu Yi is a time traveler who crossed over to this world known as the Tianming Continent sixteen years ago

Then Lu Yi noticed that there was a slight change in his panel

Lu Yi's luck is quite good, having crossed over to a cultivation sect where his parents are both outer sect stewards. Although their status is not particularly high, it is already considered quite decent compared to the average person

Lu Yi conducted some research and discovered that this golden finger resembles a panel in a game, displaying his cultivation level as well as the techniques and spells he has practiced

However, all the participants in the grand competition are cultivators at the fifth level of Qi Refinement or above. The Baiyun Sect is vast, with over 100,000 outer disciples, among which there are several thousand at the fifth level of Qi Refinement or higher. One can imagine how intense the competition is.

Originally, Lu Yi's greatest ambition was to join the inner sect, to later serve as a steward there, enjoying a comfortable life for two to three hundred years, marrying several wives, having a house full of children and grandchildren, and then passing away peacefully.

Lu Yi's smile froze, feeling a bit too excited, he momentarily lost control... He still needs to remain calm

Current task: None

Wang Siqi glared at Lu Gaoyang and said, "Yi'er’s talent is far superior to yours. She will be going to the inner sect in the future, do you still think you need to teach her?"

Lu Yi looked at the line of text and had a bold idea in his mind. He turned to Lu Gaoyang and Wang Siqi, smiling as he said: "Father, Mother, is there anything you need me to do? Would you like me to massage your legs or give you a back rub or something?"

Lu Yi felt that he seemed to have a bit of an understanding of the purpose of this golden finger

Lu Yi came to his senses and replied, "I am awake."

That was the voice of Lu Yi's mother

"Yi'er is here, quickly sit down and have breakfast," Wang Siqi said with a smile.

Lu Yigan chuckled softly and said, "Mother, I am fine. I will go practice first."

This year, Lu Yi has already reached the sixth level of Qi training, so he can go and experience it. At the very least, he should have no major issues passing the preliminary selection.

Reward: Baiyun Sword Technique Level + 1

Lu Yi was at the fifth level of Qi training last year and did not register

Every year, the Baiyun Sect holds a grand competition for the outer disciples. Those who achieve high rankings in the competition are rewarded, and if one ranks in the top ten, they can directly enter the inner sect without even needing to undergo any assessment tasks

As he looked at the words appearing before him, Lu Yi's lips curled up wildly, silently accepting the task, just as he had suspected!

Lu Yi nodded and smiled, saying, "I understand, Father"

Lu Gaoyang, as a father, appeared somewhat stern. He glanced at Lu Yi and frowned, saying: "Why did you wake up so late today? The path of cultivation should not be neglected. Do you understand?"

Lu Yi's cultivation talent, while not particularly outstanding, is still acceptable. He reached the sixth level of Qi Refinement at the age of sixteen and has the hope of establishing a foundation before turning twenty, which is somewhat better than his parents' achievements.

At that moment, Lu Gaoyang thought of something and said, "That's right, in one month, it will be this year's Outer Sect Grand Competition. You have also reached the sixth level of Qi Training this year. You should register for it; don't seek a ranking, just treat it as an experience."

... ...

Lu Yi was originally going to participate in the grand competition, so there was naturally no reason to refuse. He engaged with the notion of 'being' through his will and accepted the task

Seeing Lu Yi's excited demeanor, Wang Siqi, as a mother, felt a bit worried. She reached out to touch Lu Yi's forehead: "Yi'er, are you alright? You aren't running a fever, are you?"
