[Ding, Fame Value +60]
"Hmm?"
Su Yuan looked at the System panel in surprise. Ever since he discovered that he could filter out Fame Value below 10, his System notifications had significantly decreased.
This sudden Fame Value notification greatly surprised Su Yuan!
Because he was currently in the state of [Mind Echo], in that inexplicable state of perception, he saw a fleeting white light flash across Xu Guangwen's body.
If he wasn't mistaken, that was the mark of Fame Value!
"This Fame Value comes from Xu Guangwen, but the amount he gave is actually as high as 60 points! Is this a deeper level of recognition? If so, there's still a lot of potential to be tapped within the Seven Absolutes Sect!"
At the same time, Su Yuan also realized something: every time Fame Value increased, he could definitely activate Mind Echo, and after activating it, it was highly possible to directly pinpoint the person who provided the Fame Value!
This was very logical. The person providing the Fame Value must have been thinking about Su Yuan at that moment. If, at the instant the Fame Value notification appeared, his mind was also in a connected state, he could lock onto the target by pinpointing the existence that produced a strong mental fluctuation at that very moment.
Although this function wasn't very useful, at times, it could produce miraculous results! For example, he could now determine who provided those large amounts of Fame Value.
The unknown is the source of worry. If one can know the source of danger, many things can be dealt with calmly.
Su Yuan immediately started experimenting.
He allowed the System notifications.
[Ding, Fame Value +1]
At this instant, Su Yuan activated [Mind Echo]. Instead of manually selecting a target, he tried to release it directly by focusing on the "Fame Value +1" System notification. Unexpectedly, it actually succeeded. In an instant, his consciousness traversed space and arrived in an unfamiliar market town.
In a corner of a secluded street, a rogue cultivator at the third level of Refining Qi was joyfully caressing the pill bottle in his hand.
"Good pills, I finally got them! These are the pills from Su Yuan's shop! The quality is good and the price is cheap. This time, I can definitely break through to the fourth level of Refining Qi! Thank you, Senior Su Yuan, for your generosity! Please bless me, Senior Su Yuan, so I can break through smoothly!"
This rogue cultivator muttered a few words towards the shop's plaque at the entrance before leaving the shop with excitement and apprehension.
Su Yuan watched this scene, scratching his head slightly.
"Where is this?"
Su Yuan sensed the surroundings and confirmed that this was a small market town five thousand li away from the Seven Absolutes Sect. The items sold in the market town were at most at the mid-stage Refining Qi level. Most of the time, they were trading items for the Early Stage of Refining Qi, which were very low-end, and the trading volume was also small.
But in such a market town, the business of [Su Yuan's Shop] was extremely booming.
Su Yuan saw many people scrambling to buy the goods in the shop, and they were quickly bought out. The shelves were most often empty, and the shop assistants always explained helplessly that they would restock as soon as possible.
Su Yuan frowned: "Business is so booming? Isn't this taking food out of others' mouths? Others can't possibly just watch as this shop steals customers like this, right?"
Su Yuan happened to be right next to the seven stars altar, and he began to cast the [Seven Stars Heaven Evolution Technique].
Starlight descended from the sky, bringing Su Yuan insights for deduction.
A look of surprise flashed in Su Yuan's eyes: "There's still no trouble in the short term."
Su Yuan understood after a brief thought.
Because the shops currently being opened were basically within the territory of the Seven Absolutes Sect, and most of the market town managers had direct or indirect relationships with the Seven Absolutes Sect, these people would naturally look after Su Yuan's shops. As long as it didn't touch upon core interests, a single shop wouldn't cause much of a stir at all.
At the same time, Su Yuan noticed that the name used for opening the shops was still his identity as a true Disciple. A true Disciple's shop was enough to deter many petty individuals.
These shops didn't make much money, but they were actually very useful to Su Yuan.
He could pay a little more attention to them later.
Su Yuan looked at the System panel.
[Name]: Su Yuan
[Region]: Qingke Continent
[Level]: Famous Far and Wide (49875/10w)
[Realm]: Early Foundation Establishment Stage (60/100): Mid Golden Sand Realm
[Entry 1]: "Work-Rest Balance": Current Rest Time: 11.5 hours
[Entry 2]: Law of Nature
[Entry 3]: Seven Stars Shining Brightly
[Entry 4]: Mind Echo
Unknowingly, his Fame Value had increased to 50,000, with 10,000 points coming from the reputation spread by Su Yuan's shops.
Those low-level rogue cultivators might seem insignificant, but there were many of them!
Even if only one out of ten people could provide Fame Value, one hundred thousand people would be ten thousand points of Fame Value!
The number of rogue cultivators is very large. More importantly, every rogue cultivator will involve a large number of Mortals. Under their influence, Su Yuan's fame will reach more ordinary Mortals, and Mortals can also provide Fame Value!
The influence is fissile. As long as the shops continue to open, Su Yuan's Fame Value can continue to increase.
Su Yuan lowered his eyes slightly.
"Planting willows unintentionally provides shade!"
Su Yuan revealed a slight smile, sat back down, and calmly drank his tea.
Just one hour later, Xu Guangwen hurried back.
He returned to the mountaintop, his face full of excitement.
"Elder Su, is this a method similar to a curse? How far away can it be cast?" Xu Guangwen asked eagerly.
Su Yuan looked up at the sky and pointed to the Big Dipper: "As long as the seven stars are there, I can strike. For the Big Dipper, billions of li on the earth make no difference at all. This is the great power of the Big Dipper!"
In his heart, Xu Guangwen exclaimed about the great power. There were so many stars in the sky, and they had been there since ancient times, yet why hadn't he seen anyone else do this? It wasn't that the Big Dipper was strong, but that Su Yuan was strong!
Xu Guangwen immediately smiled and said, "I understand! Elder Su just needs to make array plates and distribute them to Disciples going out on missions. If they encounter danger, they can call upon the Elder's name, and you can assist them remotely to escape!"
Su Yuan shook his finger: "First, I won't personally make the array plates. This array Formation is in the first volume of my unique techniques. Find someone to make them yourself. Second, using this method has a cost: Spirit Stones..."
He glanced at the Spirit Stones he had just consumed, a total of one thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones. This was the result of reduced consumption under the blessing of the sixth-grade Spirit Treasure.
"I understand, I understand!" Xu Guangwen looked at the finger Su Yuan raised and tentatively asked, "One million Spirit Stones?"
Su Yuan paused, thought for a moment, and then said, "One hundred thousand Spirit Stones."
"That little?" Xu Guangwen widened his eyes.
He said, "We can't possibly let Elder Su waste his time helping for nothing. If a Disciple wants assistance, it must be at least two hundred thousand Spirit Stones or equivalent contribution points! We can't let Elder Su suffer a loss!"
Su Yuan waved his hand and said, "Just one hundred thousand. It's all for the Sect."
Xu Guangwen showed a look of admiration. This kind of selfless attitude truly moved him greatly.
"Hmm, but don't think I always have time to respond promptly. I also need to Cultivate!"
"I know that! Elder should prioritize his own cultivation!" Xu Guangwen nodded.
Su Yuan nodded, as if he had thought of something, and added, "However, if someone finds some strange and mysterious places, they can also call my name. This will be considered a reward mission, and I can give compensation to those who complete it!"
Xu Guangwen immediately said, "Elder Su doesn't need to provide compensation. This can be considered an expense within the peak! I will definitely cooperate fully to complete whatever Elder Su instructs!"
"Alright, that's how things will be! If there's nothing else, I'm going to Cultivate!" Su Yuan said.
"Then I won't disturb Elder Su!"
Xu Guangwen stood up.
He walked towards the outside of the courtyard, noticing that Su Yuan also followed him out.
"Elder Su, you don't need to see me out!" Xu Guangwen said.
"I'm not seeing you out, we're just going the same way," Su Yuan said.
"Huh?"
When Xu Guangwen walked out of the courtyard and reached the path beside the Spiritual Field, he saw that Su Yuan had already stepped into the Spiritual Field, taken out a hoe, and started tilling the land and planting!
He stood there in a daze, watching for a quarter of an hour. Seeing that Su Yuan was truly not joking, he fell into contemplation.
Could farming be a profound method of cultivation?
Xu Guangwen left, feeling bewildered.
Su Yuan, however, remembered something.
He returned to the courtyard and examined the wooden box on the table.
This was something Zhuge Jian had brought. He had always unconsciously ignored it before.
Not only him, but Xu Guangwen also didn't seem to have paid much attention to its existence earlier.
Although Zhuge Jian and the others had solemnly given it to him as a gift, they didn't seem to value it highly. It was just given as an extra item, and the main thank-you gift was Spirit Stones.
This situation surprised him a little.
He looked at the wooden box scrutinizingly and drew it into the sixth-grade Grotto-Heaven Spirit Treasure with his Divine Sense.
"Xiao Li, come back for a moment!"
Su Yuan thought to himself.
Subsequently, Su Li, the little fox, instantly teleported back from a distance and appeared beside Su Yuan.
"What's wrong, Su Yuan?" Xiao Li asked doubtfully.
"I got a treasure, help me keep watch!" Su Yuan said seriously.
"Okay!"
Xiao Li glanced strangely at the wooden box in front of Su Yuan and nodded.
Su Yuan began to study the sealing Restrictions on the surface of the wooden box.
"It's a bit complex, but still within my understanding!"
Su Yuan had already studied the Thousand Array Sutra, and his array Formation skills were already not low.
He quickly analyzed the Restrictions on the wooden box.
He input True Essence, carefully injecting it onto the Restrictions of the wooden box, following the Restriction lines, gradually spreading to every corner of the entire wooden box, completing the unsealing without the slightest error!
Su Yuan instantly moved away, ready to escape at any moment.
The wooden box slowly opened, revealing a gray bowl with a missing corner.
It was very ordinary, like the kind of bowl used for feeding dogs in a Mortal's home.
Looking closely, there were no patterns on the bowl, and the material didn't look like good quality ceramic or jade.
If it appeared anywhere else in the outside world, Su Yuan wouldn't look at it a second time. But this was found in a sealed box unearthed from a Secret Realm ruin, which made him curious.
Su Yuan's eyes widened: "Just this broken bowl?"
