- Chapter 59 (2/2)
The thought of contribution point disc still bugged him. Could it really be a mistake of the system?
…
In fact, the jade disc didn’t register the reading wrongly. That was an avatar of the White-boned Devil Monarch, created by using its ability of ‘Turning Fragments of Bones into Soldiers’.
The real cultivation of the avatar was Void Refinement when it was summoned. Due to it chasing after Princess Mei into the Sixth Region, and as Princess Mei suppressed her cultivation and continued to enter the fifth, fourth, third until she reached the Second Region. It gave the avatar no choice but to suppress its cultivation as well until it reached the Harmonious Spirit realm so that it could enter the Second Region.
In truth, an early Void Refinement ghost was really worth 2 million contribution points. However, only certain masters of Sinister Sparrow Sect knew about this.
In the Merit Hall, it scared Sinister Sparrow when Ning Fan’s accumulation points suddenly increased by 2 million points.
According to the records, the highest contribution point that could be obtained from killing ghosts in the forest was a peak Gold Core ghost which was worth 15, 000 points. The higher leveled ghosts would be the ghost king but no one had ever killed such a ghost before due to them being at least at the Nascent Soul realm.
No one knew why Ning Fan’s contribution points increased by 2 million points suddenly. This must be a joke!
What kind of ghost was worth 2 million contribution points?
“There must be something wrong with the Merit Monument. Ai… it’s probably because it has been used for many generations.” Elder Mengchu’s forehead was beaded with cold sweat because many people started to snicker and whisper about his bad maintenance of the monument.
“It’s 2 million contribution points. How could this be possible? I will step down and hand over the position of White Honour to him if he really obtained 2 million contribution points!” Bai Feiteng’s eyes looked displeased. His accumulated points was merely 1.97 million, but Ning Fan’s sudden increment had taken his fifth place, pushing his position to the sixth.
Bai Feiteng's face suddenly felt hot. How could the fifth place that he obtained through a few hundred years of effort be snatched by an inexperienced Ning Fan? What kind of joke was this?
“This is certainly caused by an error in the Merit Monument!” Bai Feiteng said firmly. The other elders also felt the same way.
“I dare to bet that the monument had really made a mistake. If I am wrong, I would use my third leg to walk!” A shirtless brawny man laughed and disapproved the readings of the Merit Monument.
Every time something inexplicable happens, people would always treat it as irrational or illogical. For instance, cultivators would usually laugh when they heard the mortals say that ghosts were non-existent. In the same way, the immortals of Four Heaven Immortal World would laugh when cultivators deny the existence of immortals.
“I urge Sect Master to correct the readings of the Merit Monument.” Bai Feiteng made an obeisance by cupping his hands before his chest. Who wouldn’t envy Ning Fan? Who would even be convinced that Ning Fan really obtained 2 million contribution points in just several days and be ranked top five?
Only the sect master, Sinister Sparrow, knew that there wasn’t an error in the Merit Monument. The monument was built by a higher realm ancestor named ‘Sparrow God Kidd’ using his extraordinary ability. It had incredible workmanship and system. It would never show an error.
However, if it wasn’t the fault of the Merit Monument…
Sinister Sparrow had no idea what grade of monster Ning Fan had killed in Demon Sinister Forest.
Of all the previous sect masters of Sinister Sparrow Sect, they had only gained some understanding about the forbidden regions of the forest. They knew that there were some ghosts whose cultivation was beyond Nascent Soul and Spirit Severing.
‘2 million of contribution points… If it didn’t came from a Spirit Severing ghost, it must’ve come from a Void Refinement ghost. What is this Ning Fan doing in the forest?! How could he always makes us worry?! He hasn’t even officially entered the sect yet.’
Sinister Sparrow didn’t tell anyone about it. He followed everyone’s suggestion and adviced to correct Ning Fan’s contribution points.
Ning Fan's 2, 005, 154 points had been corrected to 6, 154.
The 2 million contribution points continued to bug Sinister Sparrow’s mind. He was unable to maintain his calmness because of this. He suddenly realised that allowing Ning Fan into the Demon Sinister Forest was a huge mistake.
That kid must have encountered something huge in the forest. Sinister Sparrow hoped that Ning Fan didn’t provoke any kind of ‘deadly’ ghosts, otherwise, that kid would certainly not be able to return even if he was given ten lives.
‘He is surely a kid who knows how to create troubles. I’m afraid the secret that he is keeping is more than Han Yuanji.’ Sinister Sparrow heaved a long sigh. It seemed like his understanding of Ning Fan wasn’t that deep at all.
There wasn’t a single outer disciple who had caught his attention and made him worry. He touched his forehead and was speechless.
This was, perhaps the first time that the Merit Monument created an error…
