My Martial Spirit is Nanobot-Chapter 409 Collection & Investigation

Soon both of them were brought inside the outer sect premises.

"This outer sect is located in the middle of the mountain; there is an inner sect area after it, and finally the core area is on the peak. You are not allowed to climb until you break through the foundation."

Ling spoke, pointing at the surrounding buildings: the residence for the outer sect, the teaching halls, the practice halls, and finally the outer sect pavilion.

Then he pointed at the upper and peak sections of the mountain. There are some same-shaped buildings visible in the higher area, which is the inner section, while the peak is completely hidden in the cloud.

Hua Lan nodded while observing everything around and muttered curiously,

"A low-level sect has occupied such a huge area; I wonder how huge the other medium- and high-level sects will be. There are even holy lands hidden from the world."

Ling, walking beside them, halted, and his pupil shrank, looking in the direction of Hua Lan. ’The Holy Lands? What is she talking about?’

Meanwhile, Lin Lee didn’t care about anything around, as he had already seen more outrageous scenery compared to a small sect peak.

"You both go to that pavilion; they will give you the outer sect uniform and your cabin keys."

Lin Lee and Hua Lan nodded, and then both of them walked toward the pavilion, while Hua Lan thanked him with a smile.

"Thank you, big brother Ling, for guiding us here."

Ling nodded with a smile in return and then turned around and left.

Inside the pavilion,

Lin Lee and Hua Lan picked up their uniform and the keys; the staff then spoke, looking at them.

"You have to complete an outer sect mission every year in order to stay in the sect, and also you can do more tasks for earnings."

Hua Lan nodded and then asked thoughtfully,

"Is there any way to promote the inner sect without breaking through the foundation building?

The staff nodded and replied, looking at her.

"Yes, there is; the outer sect competition is held every year. The sect disciples with top qi-gathering realm strength compete in it. The first winner is directly promoted to the inner sect with a foundation building pill reward."

Hua Lan nodded and thanked her, then she turned and glanced at Lin Lee. "See you later, Disciple Lee."

Lin Lee nodded toward her and then turned around and left the pavilion building. Outside, he walked toward the small wooden house with eighty-nine written above. He opened it using the key and walked inside.

Meanwhile, Hua Lan appeared in the backside of the male residence area, a residence area for the females, and walked inside her wooden house.

"These wooden residences are really small."

Hua Lan muttered, looking at the small room with a bed and a table and nothing else.

On the other hand,

Lin Lee, sitting cross-legged in the middle of his room running the boundless art, had the heaven and earth aura gathered toward him at an alarming rate.

Pop!!!

Immediately his body shook, and qi pulses spread around, colliding with the surrounding walls.

High-level foundation building achieved.

’From medium to high, I have almost consumed all the resources. Next, I have to find resources. Maybe I should pay a visit to the sect treasury. Now even the Jindan master of this sect isn’t my opponent.’

Lin Lee thought to himself as he snapped open his eyes; a purple-green sparkle flashed in his pupil.

"There may be some treasure in the sect that can help me gain other roots besides fire, poison, and wood."

He muttered and then stood up. Just as he was about to leave, he heard a few footsteps outside, and he opened the door.

A few disciples wearing outer sect uniforms appeared in front of him; the one in front was a burly male disciple with brown hair and eyes. He walked forward and spoke arrogantly, looking at Lin Lee.

"You are new here; report your name and give us the hundred spirit stones union fee."

Lin Lee raised his brow and then replied with a sigh, "So your mother told you?"

The disciple was startled and then asked confusedly, "What?"

Lin Lee glanced at him deeply and said, "When I visited her in the brothel, I stole a hundred spirit stones from her. After that, she probably told you, and now you are asking for it."

Immediately silence spread around.

"Puft, heh..."

Immediately one of the disciples behind him laughed, grabbing his mouth; others’ faces also turned pale, all of them on the verge of losing control, but no one dared to offend the guy in front of them.

Immediately the burly disciple’s face turned purple, and then he spoke coldly, looking at Lin Lee.

"Do you know who I am? How dare you make fun of me?"

Swish!!!

At this moment an afterimage flickered, and Lin Lee was already standing in front of him.

Slap!

A figure flew and slid on the ground; at the same time, qi scattered around, rustling the other disciple robes while they were standing in a daze.

"Y-you, you are top qi gathering realm... Why? Aren’t you a newcomer?"

The disciples backed away, exclaiming with pale expressions; some even pissed their pants in fright. One of them hurriedly turned around and ran away.

Lin Lee ignored them. He walked toward the burly disciple and stopped in front of him, seeing his bulging face and closed eyes, completely unconscious.

"What is his name?" He turned and asked, looking at the remaining outer disciples,

One of them hesitated and then walked forward and replied, "He is Zhang Du, one of the top disciples in the outer sect. You shouldn’t have beaten him; his elder brother is an inner sect disciple."

Lin Lee raised his brow speechlessly and then asked, "What is his elder brother’s name?"

Another disciple walked forward and hurriedly added, "It’s Zhang Cheng."

Lin Lee nodded and then turned around and walked away, saying, "Clean up the area around my residence. Also, when he wakes up, tell him that I will visit his mother once again in order to steal more."

After speaking, he walked away, ignoring them all.

The disciple remained in place, looking at his receding back in a daze; one of them sighed in relief, "This newcomer is scary. Let’s go; we should take Brother Zhang back."

On the other hand,

Lin Lee appeared inside the pavilion building and looked at the low-grade medicine plants on the shelf.

"How can I help you?" The staff asked, looking at him curiously.

"I need to see the outer sect tasks."

Lin Lee asked, looking at him; the male disciple staff nodded and grabbed out the scrolls with tasks written inside.

He put them on the table and said, "You can choose any one among them."

Lin Lee nodded and started picking the scroll and inspecting the tasks one by one; finally, he grabbed one and said,

"I will do this one, the medicine collection and investigation task."

The male disciple staff nodded, and then he grabbed out a pouch and passed it to him.

"Here, this is the storage pouch; you have to correctly inspect the medicine fields and working environment. Punishment of those chorus disciples is up to you. Also, be careful; some outer disciple died when doing similar tasks. Probably someone is targeting the outer sect disciples."

Lin Lee raised his brow while grabbing the pouch and then asked, "The sect isn’t doing anything about it?"

The disciple shook his head and replied, "The sect doesn’t care about the lives of the outer sect disciples; if the dead were inner or core disciples, then the result would be different."

Lin Lee nodded and then turned around and left the pavilion building.

Outside he glanced at the path leading to the other side of the mountain, the sect medicine grounds. The working disciples take care of the medicine ground.

"Targeting outer disciple? Well, I can take advantage of this..."

He muttered thoughtfully and then walked forward calmly.

After a while,

He appeared in front of the building with "medicine" written above as he walked inside it.

Immediately a young disciple standing beside the shelf, while others wearing muddy dresses standing in front of him pass him the medicinal plants from their baskets for collection.

Upon noticing Lin Lee and his outer sect dress, all of them stopped and greeted him with a bow.

"Big brother, hello."

Lin Lee nodded, looking at them, and then he spoke, "I am Lin Lee, your new supervisor for the upcoming month. I will now oversee all the medicine collection and operations. Transfer my words to all of the working disciples here."

The disciples were startled, looking at each other, and then they nodded, "Yes, Brother Lin."

Lin Lee nodded and then glanced at the staff disciple putting the medicinal plants inside the boxes and then storing them inside the shelf.

He walked inside the room inside the pavilion building, which will be his residence for a month, until he completes the task as described in the scroll.
