Carefree Path of Dreams Chapter 950 Guide

‘Ding! Student Lin Meng, you have become a cultivator and have received one hundred credits!’

“The cultivation of a Mystic is a whole new world. The school will send you a guide to assist you in getting familiar as soon as possible.”

…

Fang Yuan checked his mailbox and grinned. “Only a hundred. That’s really too little. The cheapest spiritual techniques cost thirty credits in the spiritual technique exchange area. The slightly more advanced ones are sixty, seventy… Dao arts start at a couple hundred. I couldn’t even find magical powers. They must require higher jurisdiction.”

Even without the power of his Demon God True Spirit, his cultivation speed would be outstanding with the aid of the Arcane Smart-Brain.

If possible, he would like to cultivate all the spiritual techniques, especially the ones for the thirty-three immortal techniques. As the underlying foundation of the Scientific Cultivation Method was the fusion of the merits of various techniques, comprehensive development would not cause conflict between any technique, and he could cultivate as many as he pleased.

If he had time, he could even go through old techniques and comprehend his own magical power or even immortal technique.

It was a pity that nothing came free in this school.

“I heard Arcanists frequently update their arcane spell models and then sell them. Those that want to study the updated models have to pay… I can do that too!”

Fang Yuan browsed the spiritual techniques area and saw many newly-updated spiritual techniques. Each was full of things to take note of, as well as experiences.

Sadly, not many bought them.

After all, Mystics did not have the brain of Arcanists. Besides, even Arcanists might not be comparable to a photon computer’s simulations. The Myriad Scroll Dao Scripture was almost perfect.

“In other words, it’s the most balanced. Improvements come by adding pros in certain areas, but cons in other areas will surface. In this way, spiritual techniques will become more focused… There’s still something to do here, but the target group will become narrower…”

Fang Yuan sat cross-legged while pondering over his money-making scheme and continuing to cultivate.

In Planet East Dragon’s special environment, he felt his body turn into a black hole, greedily devouring the energy around him.

His spiritual roots captured large quantities of particles, brought them into his body, and rapidly circulated them through his channels. The progress was going very smoothly.

Shoulder structure is slightly tired, need to rest!

Focusing your will on the dantian will increase your efficiency by one percent!

…

Large amounts of information passed to him from the Arcane Smart-Brain. Through Fang Yuan’s supreme intellect and experience, coupled with the calculating power of the smart-brain, his cultivation progress was absurd.

A while after, Fang Yuan had to stop. “The particle density in this area has dropped noticeably… Is the safe zone the most unsuitable for cultivation?”

Planet East Dragon’s gravity and radiation were different from other planets. Strictly speaking, it was downright unfit for human survival. However, it was like heaven to cultivators.

For instance, East Dragon University had ten districts of different levels. The lower the level, the safer the district. However, the energy particle density would be lower as well.

“I’ve become a Mystic now. At the least, I can cultivate in the first three districts. Or perhaps I should challenge the fifth?”

District five was exactly like the surface of the planet.

After becoming a Mystic, Fang Yuan now had the protection of spiritual power. He was eager to try.

“Junior Lin Meng, are you there?” Knocking came from the door. “I am the guide assigned to you by the school, Sun Mengmeng! “

Fang Yuan opened his door and greeted her with a smile. “Senior! You came fast!”

“I just happened to see this mission, so I accepted it. After all, there’s a lot of credits rewarded…” Sun Mengmeng sized up Fang Yuan. “Among the first-years, you must be the fastest one to break through.”

She did not ask anything about the situation of his brain development. After all, it was a very personal matter.

“So it’s a mission! Can I undertake them in the future as well?”

Fang Yuan now knew of a method to gain credits.

“Of course. However, given your current cultivation, there aren’t many missions suitable…” Sun Mengmeng shook her head. “I will now show you around the school and familiarize you with the special districts that ordinary students are unable to enter. But since you’re a Mystic now, there shouldn’t be any problems…

“I will then explain in detail how the mission module operates and upgrade the functionality of your wristband. After that, I will try to find you a mentor. I want to settle it all of this in a day. Junior, remember to give your senior a good review!”

…

Settle it in a day? Okay… a cultivator’s time is valuable and can’t be wasted!

Fang Yuan nodded. “All right. Let’s start now!”

He followed Sun Mengmeng and left the district where the first-years stayed. He passed through a certain film of light amid astonished looks and arrived at district two.

Once he set foot inside, the gravity doubled. At the same time, a rich wave of energy particles hit him. Fang Yuan breathed in deeply with satisfaction.

“Eh?” Sun Mengmeng was planning to see Fang Yuan make a fool of himself and laugh at him, but now she was stunned. “Junior, your body is very strong. Have you specially trained your body before?”

Ordinary people would definitely not adapt to this district’s double gravity.

“Hmm, I did train for a couple of years!”

Fang Yuan asked calmly, “If I want to cultivate in the higher-level districts, can I apply to change dormitories?”

“Of course…” Sun Mengmeng was slightly stunned. “As long as you have credits, you can do almost anything in East Dragon University! In district five, there’s even a specialized cultivation chamber. However, since you just broke through, the safe zone should be able to fulfill your needs. It’s best to consider moving after you break through to the second level!”

So the first five levels of the safe zone correspond to the first five levels of Mystic?

Fang Yuan contemplated and made his decision.

After all, he was a special case. Not only were his spiritual roots at one hundred percent, but he also had the help of his True Spirit and the smart-brain. His cultivation speed was incredibly fast. Even Wu Wudi was an amateur in comparison.

The energy particle density in the safe zone would not meet his needs at all.

“Right. After district five, do the districts have even higher gravity?” Fang Yuan asked.

“Not necessarily!” Sun Mengmeng shook her head. “The environments are adjusted according to research needs. Some of them have normal gravity, while others have their gravity turned up to several tens of times, even several hundreds of times! It’s best not to wander. Otherwise, you might meet a gruesome death!”

“I understand!” Fang Yuan nodded. Those that could conduct research in the districts with a hundred times gravity could not possibly be scientists. They had to be high-level Mystics at the peak of their strength!

“Actually, the most practical thing for us students is the mission board. You can accept and publish missions on it as long as credits are involved. Welcoming first-years was one of the missions I took!” Sun Mengmeng said. “There’s also the East Dragon Leaderboard, which is the overall ranking of all the students in the university. Sigh… If only I could squeeze into the list before I graduate. Even if I were at the bottom, I would be overcome with joy.”

“Leaderboard?” Fang Yuan immediately searched for the ranking and saw number one. “Wu Wudi? The genius that took twenty-seven days to advance to level five Mystic? He’s a student too?”

“Yes, Wu Wudi is the greatest genius in East Dragon University history. He’s already been recommended to continue for his Ph.D. Of course, he is still in school. However, he rarely accepts missions. On the contrary, he spends his credits employing juniors to help him with research!”

Sun Mengmeng looked smitten. “Also… he is extremely handsome!”

“What about his cultivation level? It must be over ten?”

No matter the age, cultivation became more difficult the further one advanced. Even geniuses were no exception to this rule.

“Level fourteen. He is on the verge of breaking through to level fifteen, also known as the Nascent Soul stage in ancient cultivation. However, Senior Wu can defeat Nascent Soul ancient cultivators as he is now!” Sun Mengmeng said with confidence.

“Mmmm!” Fang Yuan was expressionless, but he was thinking to himself. For Masters studies, according to the rules of East Dragon University, perhaps it’s possible to start at year two or three. In other words, Wu Wudi has only cultivated for four to five years… Four to five years to Nascent Soul? Ancient cultivators wouldn’t take that well in the slightest!

“All right. We’ll head to the academic affairs office and collect your magical weapon seed. It’s valuable and won’t be replaced if lost. You must nourish it carefully, and it would be best to let it devour various rare ingredients frequently. Only then will you be able to cultivate it to the way you want!

“Lastly, you need a mentor!” Sun Mengmeng was leading the way. “High-level Mystics come to teach as well, and those with credits can attend the lessons. However, it’s still different than being a disciple to someone. The most obvious difference is that the mentor can give private lessons on various spiritual techniques and knowledge to his students, free of charge! They could even teach their disciples high-level cultivation techniques beyond level five! This is closely tied to your choice of major in the future and even more important…”

“I understand!” Fang Yuan nodded. “It’s like the difference between ordinary disciples and those that are taught personally in the ancient sects!”

“Exactly. Although the majority of the cultivation sects have become universities, some traditions are still preserved…”

The two soon arrived at the academic affairs office.

It was a colossal building situated in district three. The energy particle concentration was even greater here. Of course, the gravity was stronger as well. Green plants disappeared, and only black and red vines that could survive covered the building.

Noticing that Fang Yuan was still behaving as though nothing had happened, Sun Mengmeng’s eyes were full of shock for a moment.

Ding!

“Welcome, two students. What matters do you need to settle?”

After entering the main door, they heard a robotic voice.

Fang Yuan was not the least bit surprised and answered directly, “Lin Meng, here to collect the magical weapon seed!”

“Ding! Identity confirmed. Mystic confirmed. Proceed to window twenty-two!”

…

They went through the procedure, and Fang Yuan acquired a silvery-white piece of metal.

This was the memory metal, which was also living. It could be considered half alive, and it was the best material to agglomerate magical weapons.

According to the research of modern scientists, it was easy to produce Weapon Spirits using this kind of memory metal once the magical weapon formed. The success rate was as high as sixty percent! Ancient cultivators would be incredibly envious.

…

“All right!” After leaving the academic affairs office, Fang Yuan looked at the sky. “There’s just one thing left. Are there any mentors that you would recommend?”

“Dream on!” Sun Mengmeng rolled her eyes. “You’re on the begging end when it comes to choosing a master. It is up to the mentors to decide if they want to take you in. Only Teacher Lü Songyang and Teacher Lei Lisi are currently willing to take in first-years, but Teacher Lei Lisi only accepts female students. I’ll take you to Teacher Lü Songyang. Let’s try your luck!”
