44: Is it true in dreams?

Upon hearing about gifts, the two girls became expectant, their large eyes fixed on Li Daoxuan, full of anticipation.

"Li Dage, what gift are you going to give us?"

Li Daoxuan did not hesitate, directly taking out two ancient books: "Longevity Secret Art" and "Qing Yuan Swordplay." These were the two most precious Cultivation Techniques Li Daoxuan had.

After some thought, he waved his large hand, and more Cultivation Technique Secret Manuals were placed on the stone table.

Li Daoxuan said earnestly, "These two Cultivation Techniques are also what I Cultivate. You two should study them well and focus on cultivating these two Cultivation Techniques from now on!"

Xiao Binger: "..."

Xiao Linger: "..."

Looking at the Cultivation Techniques filling the stone table, they were truly shocked. They knew this Li Dage was generous, but he couldn't be this generous...

Xiao Linger was the first to react, excitedly asking, "Li Dage, what Rank are these two Cultivation Techniques?"

Bing'er: "Little sister, don't be rude. It's good enough to have something to Cultivate!"

Li Daoxuan said nonchalantly, "They are only Earth Rank High Grade!"

Xiao Linger and Xiao Binger were once again dumbfounded. "Only"...

"Here are also dozens of Profound Rank Cultivation Techniques. You can choose a few to assist your Cultivation based on your preferences and Spiritual Root attributes."

Xiao Binger said with a troubled expression, "Li Dage, this is too precious, we can't..."

"Bing'er, if you say that, you're treating me like a stranger. We are a Family. Of course, I should share good things with you. If you refuse again, I'll be unhappy!"

Xiao Linger, on the other hand, had no burden. She happily took "Longevity Secret Art" and started reading, while teasing, "Sister, we are already Li Dage's people, so why care about each other?"

"If you feel indebted to Li Dage, then you should just... Wuwuwu~"

Xiao Binger immediately covered her sister's cherry-like mouth, afraid she would blurt out something shocking.

"Hahahaha... Ling'er is still the most straightforward. You two just need to Cultivate well, and if you don't understand anything, you can directly ask me."

The pavilion quieted down. Li Daoxuan just sat there, quietly drinking tea, not disturbing the two.

Li Daoxuan found that they were simultaneously comprehending "Longevity Secret Art," which was double the speed.

Soon!

Li Daoxuan noticed something was wrong. The two of them had simultaneously entered a state of comprehending the Dao.

Immediately after, two huge Spiritual Power fluctuations spread out. One Spiritual Power was bone-chillingly cold, while the other was scorching and violent.

Oh no! These two girls are about to Breakthrough.

Oh dear! I was careless, truly careless. Li Daoxuan didn't have time to think, his hands directly danced, and Formation Plates were set up around the two girls.

A Spirit Gathering Formation was quickly completed. Li Daoxuan's hands waved again, crash! A large pile of High-Grade Spirit Stones was placed within the Spirit Gathering Formation.

This was much more secure. As time passed minute by minute, the two girls successfully advanced to the Golden Core Stage.

At this moment, the two girls officially became Golden Core Stage Cultivators.

Xiao Linger and Xiao Binger also woke up, their faces filled with joy, saying, "Li Dage, we've broken through. We are Golden Core Stage Cultivators!"

"Thank you, Li Dage!"

The two girls simply expressed their thanks, then deeply etched this kindness into their hearts.

Li Daoxuan was also very happy. He didn't expect them to Breakthrough so easily. This was a good thing!

"Come on, choose a few more Cultivation Techniques."

"You two can Cultivate here for now. I need to open the shop for business."

Xiao Linger and Xiao Binger quickly stood up, saying apologetically, "Li Dage, let us accompany you. After all, we will be the First Shopkeeper and Second Shopkeeper here from now on."

"Alright! I'll introduce you to the people of Wanbao Pavilion and let you familiarize yourselves with the environment."

"Okay!"

Xiao Linger skipped ahead, while Xiao Binger and Li Daoxuan followed behind.

As soon as the main door opened, Ling'er was still startled. There were too many people, right?

Li Daoxuan introduced the two girls to the ten young women borrowed from the Xuantian Business Alliance, but Li Daoxuan asked in confusion, "Girls, why are you carrying bundles?"

"Shopkeeper, we are now people of Wanbao Pavilion."

"That's right! The Xuantian Business Alliance sent us to Wanbao Pavilion. Please take good care of us from now on, Shopkeeper."

Li Daoxuan was immediately overjoyed and quickly said, "Welcome to Wanbao Pavilion. Don't worry, the treatment here will definitely be better than at the Xuantian Business Alliance."

Li Daoxuan knew this must be Luo Qingcheng's idea. This friend was truly considerate.

The Xiao sisters were also very clever and quickly took over the duties of Shopkeeper, especially Ling'er, who had already begun enthusiastically greeting customers.

At this point, Li Daoxuan truly became a hands-off Shopkeeper.

Returning to the backyard, Li Daoxuan suddenly thought of something.

"System, are you there?"

"Last night, I seemed to hear your voice in my dream. Was that real?"

"Wuwuwu~ You finally remembered me?"

"Is there a reward that hasn't been issued yet? Was it really in a dream?"

"Yes!"

"Every time you claim a reward, can't you be more proactive? Are you out of your mind?!"

"Hehe! Come on, I'm ready."

"Congratulations to the host's Family for gaining two new members!"

"Rewards are as follows:"

"Reward One: One copy of "Basic Pill Formula Compendium" (Note: Includes all First, Second, and Third Rank Medicinal Pills)"

"Reward Two: 500 years of Spiritual Power Infusion"

"Reward Three: One Alchemy Skill Enhancement Card"

"Reward Four: One Sword Tomb"

"Reward Five: One mysterious, tattered Pill Furnace (Note: Very mysterious, with a surprise later!)"

Seeing the rewards, Li Daoxuan was first stunned, then pleasantly surprised, but when he saw the last two rewards, he was a little confused.

What the hell is this?

But upon closer inspection, Li Daoxuan immediately couldn't hold back.

"Hahahaha... This is truly getting what you wish for! Awesome!"

A Sword Tomb is not a place where swords are buried, but rather a place where Spiritual Artifacts are nurtured.

Damaged Spiritual Artifacts can be buried in the Sword Tomb and repaired after a period of time. Complete Spiritual Artifacts can also be buried in the Sword Tomb to improve their Rank.

The most powerful thing is that Artifact Refining Materials can be placed in the Sword Tomb, and various types of Spiritual Artifacts with different attributes can slowly be nurtured from them.

Of course, the Sword Tomb is not without its drawbacks.

Firstly, the highest Rank of Spiritual Artifact it can produce is only Second Rank High Grade.

Secondly, it requires someone to operate it and continuously provide Spiritual Power.

Finally, it consumes a lot of Spiritual Materials.

However, none of these were problems for Li Daoxuan; he lacked none of them. This also solved a big problem for Li Daoxuan; he would no longer have to worry about Wanbao Pavilion lacking treasures.

As for the mysterious, tattered Pill Furnace, it was literally what it said: truly broken, truly tattered.

However, this tattered Pill Furnace had a special characteristic: any Cultivator with a Fire Spiritual Root attribute could use it for Alchemy.

What shocked Li Daoxuan the most was that this Pill Furnace actually had a faint consciousness, and all the Medicinal Pills it produced were of High Grade.

As for the Rank? That depended on the Rank of the Medicinal Materials put in, the Cultivation level of the person controlling the Pill Furnace, and the extent of the Pill Furnace's repair.

With these two precious exotic treasures, Li Daoxuan could completely withdraw himself.

As for who would control these two exotic treasures, Li Daoxuan already had an idea.

The only concern was...

"Host, you don't have to worry about this at all!"

"Holy moly, you're too scary. You know what I'm thinking?"

"I know!"

"Host, rest assured. Any Family member recognized by the System will absolutely not betray the Family, nor will they do anything that harms the Family's interests."

"Unless they die!"

"Dominating!"

"Then I have no more worries!"
