"Fellow Daoist Lin, long time no see. I was talking to Kou Ming about you yesterday. How have you been?"

"Thank you for your concern, Master Tao and Senior Brother Kou. I've been busy cultivating recently, so I didn't go out much." Lin Shen smiled and nodded in greeting.

"That's good. You're very talented. You should focus on cultivating. Your future will definitely be limitless!"

Tao Zongbao didn't hesitate when he said all those mushy things. Then, he smiled and asked,

"Fellow Daoist Lin, what brings you to the Internal Affairs Department? If you need my help, feel free to ask!"

"I do have something to trouble Master Tao with."

Lin Shen deliberated over his words and slowly asked, "Master Tao, do you have channels to obtain special herbs or pills that have powerful side effects but can increase the efficiency of cultivation, such as the Snake Orchid or the Blood Boiling Powder?"

Tao Zongbao was stunned. He seemed to have thought of something and had an extremely strange expression.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, even Master Si admires and acknowledges your talent. As long as you follow the prescribed order and cultivate steadily, you'll one day become a cultivator master. Even if you fall into a low point, you'll be able to make a comeback sooner or later. There's really no need to take the risk..."

If it were any other time, Tao Zongbao wouldn't have thought too much about it.

However, Lin Shen's record had been spreading like wildfire recently.

Many Yellow-rank disciples had even publicly announced that they would replace Lin Shen as a Black-rank disciple in three months.

Tao Zongbao immediately thought Lin Shen couldn't withstand the pressure, so he wanted to take a shortcut to increase his strength so that he could keep his spot as a Black-rank disciple in the level challenge three months later.

Seeing that Tao Zongbao looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated, Lin Shen knew he was mistaken. He hurriedly said, "Master Tao, I'm not looking for these things for myself. I need them for other uses!"

He wasn't lying. After all, those things were indeed not used by himself.

Seeing Lin Shen's bright eyes and solemn expression, Tao Zongbao didn't feel Lin Shen was hiding something, so he was relieved.

Come to think of it, Lin Shen didn't look like such an impulsive person.

Why would he risk his future?

With all his doubts gone, Tao Zongbao smiled again and thought for a moment.

"Although these kinds of things are rare, many disciples in the academy have accidentally obtained them when they were training outside. However, because the price-performance ratio isn't high, they have always been difficult to sell. If someone is willing to buy them, I believe the disciples won't turn down the offer. However..."

Lin Shen understood and immediately said, "I can buy it with merit points!"

Tao Zongbao's smile broadened.

"Then there's no problem. Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Lin. I promise to get a fair price for you!"

"Thank you, Master Tao!"

The two of them tacitly didn't talk about the difference in selling and purchasing prices.

Since Lin Shen had asked for a favor, he had to pay Tao Zongbao a little fee.

Lin Shen didn't care what price Tao Zongbao would buy things from others. As long as the final price he gave didn't exceed his expectations, it was fine.

Moreover, he didn't think Tao Zongbao would be stupid enough to offend him for a little benefit.

If Tao Zongbao was really so short-sighted, he wouldn't have been able to climb to the position of a deacon of the Internal Affairs Department.

After leaving the Internal Affairs Department, Lin Shen heaved a sigh of relief and looked overjoyed.

After a few searches by Old Wu, most of the rare herbs and pills on the black street that had similar effects to Condensing Liquid had been consumed by Clone 2.

Recently, Old Wu had collected fewer and fewer rare herbs and pills each time.

It was foreseeable that it wouldn't be long before there were no similar rare herbs and pills on the black street.

That was why Lin Shen had set his sights on the Nine Yang Academy.

However, what disappointed him was that there were no similar items on the exchange list of the Merit Hall.

Probably not many disciples would exchange for such things. The academy didn't want to see disciples use these things to take shortcuts either, so they simply removed them from the list.

Kou Ming happened to introduce Tao Zongbao to Lin Shen.

At that moment, Lin Shen had an idea. He wanted to ask Tao Zongbao to look for him.

That was why he took a trip to the Internal Affairs Department today.

Tao Zongbao didn't disappoint Lin Shen. He agreed to help right away.

It was worth mentioning that the Nine Yang Academy prohibited disciples from exchanging merit points.

However, when there were policies, there were countermeasures. Since merit points couldn't be traded, the disciples would trade items that were exchanged with merit points.

The academy couldn't forbid disciples from exchanging items, right? Hence, a disguised merit points transaction was created.

"I have to earn a lot of merit points as soon as possible!"

If he wanted to trade for enough rare herbs or pills, Lin Shen's current three minor merits were clearly far from enough.

Thinking of this, Lin Shen immediately rushed to the Merit Hall.

The Mission Hall again was still filled with wooden tablets as usual.

Lin Shen concentrated and carefully searched through the wooden tablets.

He first eliminated intelligence missions.

The uncertainty of this kind of mission was too great. If he encountered unexpected danger, it would be too late to cry!

Secondly, the duty-type mission was also ruled out by Lin Shen.

Not only was the reward for this kind of mission low, but the missions also took a long time. It was safe, but the cost-performance ratio was too low.

Excluding the two types of missions, the only ones left were the collection and crusade types.

The former didn't need to accept the mission beforehand. He could wait until he obtained the item before taking the corresponding wooden token to complete the mission.

Therefore, Lin Shen's attention was mainly on the crusade missions..
