Hualin followed the fairy lotus all the way. Although he saw many houses and few monks, which were completely different from what he saw in Qiyun Peak and other places, the Yunxi Sect was the only training sect he had ever seen in this world. He has never set foot in the place, so he doesn't feel anything wrong yet. After all, in the world where he was originally, there were many buildings and few wizards. But since Xiao Qianqiu, who has traveled in the Yunxi Sect, said so, what he saw should not be the normal state of the Yunxi Sect, or maybe it is the "new normal"?
But what new normal would lead to a proliferation of various battles and life arrangements that require monks' labor and resources, while the number of monks has dropped unusually? He thought of several possibilities in an instant, but none of them were optimistic, and none of them were quite consistent. Let's say it was a war. Wouldn't a war lead to a shortage of resources in the rear? In some of the worlds he has visited that have been mired in long-term wars, in the cities behind them, even the iron bars on the windows and the lead tiles on the roofs were often sent to the furnaces. The entire city was as miserable as if it had been invaded and plundered once. The buildings couldn't save their face, let alone any large-scale new buildings to be built. It was completely opposite to what he saw before him. As for whether the monks were attending a party, many of the buildings he saw had clearly never been used. Why did the Yunxi Sect work so hard to build so many unused facilities? And it was made as gorgeous as possible!
He was about to talk a little more with Xiao Qianqiu about this, but Xianlian had already stopped in a quiet bay with extremely beautiful scenery. This bay was surrounded by a flat land with prosperous flowers and grass, surrounded by two or three circles of low green hills. Surrounded by it, there are about a dozen bamboo huts at the foot of the mountain. There is a narrow gravel road from the river to the hut, which is as neat as a small painting. He looked with his heavenly eyes and saw that those few hills were clearly guarded by a green dragon in the clouds and mist. He knew it was the guardian beast of the Yunxi Sect, but it was a little hazy when he looked at it again. Xiao Qianqiu explained to him: "Everything here is , all in the painting.”
"Isn't the whole sect painted?"
“There are paintings within paintings.”
After that, Xiao Qianqiu stopped talking. Hua Lin also kept in his mind what he had just questioned with Xiao Qianqiu. He looked around a few more times and stepped onto the gravel road towards the bamboo buildings. As I got closer, I saw several young girls dressed in Yunxi Sect costumes near the bamboo building, doing homework or playing games under the trees. It seemed that the Yunxi Sect had arranged for new disciples who had not yet formally entered the sect. At this place, Hualin opened his eyes and saw that all of them had excellent immortal bones and were extremely outstanding. I have to say that this shows the benefits of Yunxi Sect as a sect. If it is a cultivating family, it is impossible to join if you are not related by blood or marriage. However, if you are related by blood or marriage, it cannot guarantee the ability of the members, or even their ability. Loyalty, there are too many members who think that they are related by blood or marriage and feel that the family should pay for them and they don't have to do anything. Even a harsh family like the Xiao family, which constantly arranges fights between families, has to face the problem that many members who don't even have immortal bones rely on blood relationships to receive resources that they should not receive. The sect is different. A mortal without immortal bones cannot join the sect at all, but a capable member who is not related by blood can also rely on his own contribution to obtain resources for himself.
The young men and women were not surprised when they saw the newcomer. One of them saw the slightly older man standing up and asked Hualin about the origin of his name, and introduced himself. It turned out that he was from a nearby Luoxiao village, and was picked up by Yunxi. The sect brought them here after discovering the immortal bones. Several others were born from mortals, some from immortal cultivating families, and some whose parents were members of the Yunxi sect. Seven or eight people actually had four or five origins, and one of them was from the Baiyan Kingdom. He and Hualin could actually call each other "fellow fellow". Although his ancestors had left the Baiyan Country for more than nine hundred years, he only knew the place name of the Baiyan Country.
Since the two were "fellow townspeople", they asked each other a few more questions. Hualin briefly told the story of the Xiao family's downfall. The young men and women were all shocked and shouted, "Isn't it peaceful in the west too?"
"also?"
When Hualin asked again, he found out that the Yunxi Sect had been participating in wars in the East over the years, and that the young man he regarded as a "fellow fellow" and his true immortal ancestor from the Hundred Eyes Country had been there more than fifty years ago. Along with several of his most popular disciples, they died in a tragic battle on the Eastern battlefield. Not only did their thousand-year cultivation vanish into nothingness, but even his branch's vitality was severely damaged. The remaining few disciples with insufficient qualifications had to switch to other immortals. This also meant that as a qualified disciple, he had no one to teach him and was unable to get started directly. Instead, he had to receive the most basic training with other strangers - to be more specific, it was not like they were junior disciples who had not yet officially started. All that is known.
