Chapter 30 Posting on Skynet for Help

Cloud Central Garrison Manor, deliberation hall.

Looking at the ten people standing below, Zhang Yuhe nodded in satisfaction.

The Qian and Sun families were quite sensible; they sent people over early in the morning, with five Golden Core Cultivators from each Family.

These ten people looked anything but ordinary; they were elite descendants of the two families.

It seemed that the two families had truly put in the effort, especially the Qian Family.

Qian Weiguang actually sent his son to the Guardian Manor, which was a show of loyalty.

Zhang Yuhe swept his gaze across the crowd. The leader among them had a thin figure, with a faint sword light surrounding his body.

At a glance, he was a Sword Cultivator who had achieved success in cultivation.

This person was none other than Qian Weiguang's son, Qian Zhongshu, who possessed a Golden Core Great Perfection cultivation level and was just a tiny opportunity away from a Breakthrough to Nascent Soul.

For Qian Weiguang to send such a person over, it was obvious he wanted to cling to his coattails.

"Not bad."

He felt very satisfied with the sensible performance of the Qian and Sun families, and he did not mind being someone else's backer.

It was a mutually beneficial matter to begin with; everyone benefits when everyone does well.

With a wave of Zhang Yuhe's right hand, ten spiritual-light-flashing Flying Swords slowly flew towards the crowd.

"Take these Flying Swords as a welcome gift for everyone. Coming to my place to take orders, although there is no money, I cannot let you work for nothing."

Seeing the Flying Swords before them, everyone's eyes lit up with joy as they quickly expressed their gratitude.

"Many thanks, Guardian Envoy."

The Flying Swords given by Zhang Yuhe were certainly not some trash goods.

These Flying Swords were casually refined by him, and without exception, they were all Medium Grade Magic Treasures.

With his current Artifact Refining level, refining some Medium Grade Magic Treasures was simply too easy.

But for these descendants of the Qian and Sun families, Medium Grade Magic Treasures were already considered the best Magic Treasures.

Even in the families they belonged to, Medium Grade Magic Treasures were extremely precious and might even be used as town-Family Magic Treasures, not easily deployed.

Above Magical Artifacts were Magic Treasures; Cultivators below Foundation Establishment generally used Magical Artifacts.

Only Cultivators above Golden Core could use Magic Treasures.

However, Magic Treasures were precious, not only extremely difficult to refine, but Materials were also very hard to find.

For ordinary Golden Core Cultivators, being able to have a Low Grade Magic Treasure was already considered quite good.

Only descendants of top-tier factions were likely to possess Medium Grade Magic Treasures while in the Golden Core realm.

As for High Grade Magic Treasures, they were exclusive to Nascent Soul Cultivators; even if given to Golden Core Cultivators to use, they could not activate them.

It was not that Zhang Yuhe looked down on them, but estimated that the entire Yunzhong Prefecture could not produce a few High Grade Magic Treasures.

"Alright, the ten of you split into two teams. One team will garrison within the manor to Cultivate, and the other team will patrol the city. The two teams will take turns swapping. As for how to arrange it, you decide yourselves. Dismissed."

After Zhang Yuhe finished speaking, he waved his hand to dismiss the crowd.

He wanted people to come over not to have them charge into battle for him.

There was completely no need.

As for fighting, he could just do it himself.

With his current strength, what could Golden Core Cultivators help him do?

Golden Core Cultivators like these could be wiped out in large swaths with a wave of his hand.

His purpose in asking for people from various factions was, on one hand, to test their attitudes, and on the other hand, to find some people to run errands for him.

Lest he couldn't even find someone to pass a message, which would truly detract from his prestige as a Guardian Envoy.

After everyone left, Zhang Yuhe beckoned to Qian Lingling behind him.

"Help me find some people to stroll around the city and gather news. No matter what kind of gossip or rumors, it is fine. Then classify and organize them into a booklet."

After saying that, Zhang Yuhe took out another jade bottle and tossed it over, saying,

"Cultivate hard; your cultivation level is still too low, and you cannot handle much."

Qian Lingling took the jade bottle with a blushing face and said,

"Thank you, Lord."

When everyone had left, Zhang Yuhe sat quietly in the main hall and fell into deep thought.

Having Qian Lingling find people to gather news naturally did not mean he really had any specific thoughts about it.

It was merely to let others see that he was not idle, but was actually doing things.

At the same time, it would make those with ulterior motives restrain their actions and not stir up trouble.

"I must resolve the issue as soon as possible and see what on earth Wind Whisper Pavilion and the He and Li families are up to."

He was getting a bit annoyed; with things hanging on his mind, he couldn't Cultivate with peace of mind.

Zhang Yuhe summoned the game System and opened the chat channel.

Compared to the lively screen-flooding at the beginning, the current chat channel appeared somewhat quiet, with players communicating on it only occasionally.

This was because the number of players in Yu Fantian had dropped so severely.

Compared to the initial nearly ten million people, the number of players still active in Yu Fantian now would not exceed five hundred thousand.

It was not that they did not want to Cultivate for immortality, but rather that the time flow rate in Yu Fantian differed vastly from the Blue Star.

One day on the Blue Star, one hundred days passed in Yu Fantian.

If they remained active in Yu Fantian for a long time, wouldn't they have already died of old age?

Those players who had already reached Foundation Establishment were fine; after Foundation Establishment, their lifespan increased significantly, and they temporarily had no worries about lifespan.

However, most players only had Low Grade Spiritual Root Aptitude; unless they had a great fortuitous encounter, they almost had no chance of Foundation Establishment.

Therefore, after their initial enthusiasm passed, most players rarely entered Yu Fantian again.

Anyway, they could Cultivate just the same on the Blue Star.

Although the Spiritual Qi on the Blue Star was not as abundant as in Yu Fantian, for Qi Refining Cultivators, it was still strong and sufficient.

Most players currently active in Yu Fantian had already reached Foundation Establishment; Qi Refinement Stage players only occasionally came in to venture and would quickly log off and leave.

Seeing that the chat channel was dead silent, Zhang Yuhe put down his raised finger.

"Forget it, I might as well go post a message on Skynet; anyway, it's almost time to log off."

Originally, he had planned to post information on the chat channel offering a bounty to collect intelligence on Yunzhong Prefecture.

Thinking about it now, forget it; most of the players staying in Yu Fantian now were extremely busy.

Either they were busy Cultivating or fighting monsters outside to make money. Even if he posted the information, it was estimated that not many people would respond.

Night fell, and a log-off prompt appeared in his mind.

"Log off."

Standing on the balcony and breathing in the familiar aura of the Blue Star, Zhang Yuhe looked out at the sky outside, where streaks of light occasionally flashed past.

Yu Fantian had been open for over a year, and the players' strength had greatly improved.

Everyone had long since ceased to find flying on swords unusual.

Lying on the lounge chair, Zhang Yuhe took out his mobile phone and logged into Skynet.

After the Blue Star Cultivation Alliance was established, it simultaneously launched Skynet, allowing all cultivation players to exchange information on Skynet.

Compared to the dead-silent game chat channel, Skynet was exceptionally lively.

After all, the Blue Star was where everyone lived; Yu Fantian was merely a place for fighting monsters and gaining experience.

Zhang Yuhe quickly edited a post on Skynet.

[Seeking help, offering a high bounty for information from all sides in Yunzhong Prefecture, especially news regarding the Demon God Cult.]

Below the post, he also edited some content.

[I am fortunate enough to join the Cloud Central Garrison Manor to work, and am now collecting various intelligence within the manor. If there is any relevant news about the Demon God Cult, the price is negotiable, and I certainly will not let you down.]

After the post was published, Zhang Yuhe quietly lay on the lounge chair and closed his eyes to rest his mind.
