After coming out of this large room full of urns, the five people took a look at the nearby stone chambers. There was nothing new discovered there. When Tang Ping walked out of one of the stone chambers, she asked:
"Boy Qian, this is the fourth floor of Hanchichi, and it is also the place where the sect's Yu Nianhui has been entrenched for a long time. But, is it that simple here?"
Qian Chao said:
"Of course not. Come on, I still have something to show you. That thing is right in front of you but it doesn't attract anyone's attention. It is also the most important thing in the Yunianhui. Come with me."
As he spoke, Qian Chao led his four companions towards the wide stone wall opposite, saying as he walked:
"Senior Brother Chu Yuan emphasized to me emphatically when he told me about the fourth floor of Hanchi Pond that if one day we can come here, we must take a good look at it and see what has happened since the Yu Nianhui was established in the Wuling Sect. , I will definitely be surprised by how many people have joined the Yunianhui. He told me that he was very shocked when he met him for the first time. Well, I only heard him say that of course I have never seen it before. Let’s go. Let’s go see it together.”
The direction they walked towards was towards the end of the stone wall opposite. The light in this fourth floor was not dim, but as Qian Chao moved forward, many talisman papers emitting yellow light flew out from his hands in a long row. A column of people followed him towards the opposite stone wall. Qian Chao did this to see more clearly with the help of this extra light.
The talisman flew faster than they walked. After the yellow light illuminated the surface of the large stone wall brighter, Qian Chao was the first to see clearly what was on it. He was stunned for a moment and then left immediately. After two steps, he stopped and looked up for a moment before sighing and saying:
"Sure enough, it's on this stone wall!"
Tang Ping and the others didn't know what Qian Chao wanted to show them at first, because there was only a stone wall there. However, as Qian Chao's many glowing talismans stopped in front of the tall stone wall, and as they approached, They finally saw it clearly. They were stunned at first, and then couldn't help but be stunned when they saw it clearly.
At first, they just discovered that the stone wall was densely covered with characters, from top to bottom, from one end to the other. The entire stone wall was about a hundred feet long and about a dozen feet high. It was like a huge piece of paper, densely filled with words.
When they carefully looked at what was carved on it, they were shocked to find that those densely packed words were not an article, nor were they engraved with something important on the stone wall. Those words were written one by one. Names, just names, were densely engraved almost all over the entire huge stone wall!
Soon they discovered that these names were written in different handwriting styles, and even the sizes of the characters were different. The big characters were like fists, and the small characters were like eyes. Some were scrawled, some were unusually neat, and some were written carelessly. Some are very cautious, some are written horizontally, and some are carved vertically. It is obviously impossible for this to be left by a single person. It is very likely that...the owner of these names left it here himself!
A whole huge stone wall!
Yanxuan looked around with wide eyes, and she murmured:
"My God, how many people are there in the Yu Nian Club? Is it so powerful?"
Tang Ping was also watching. After hearing Yanxuan's words, she said:
"Sister Yan, what is left here are the names of everyone in Yu Nianhui from the past to the present. I am afraid that many of the people here have already been put into jars and placed in that big room."
"What!" Yanxuan was startled again, and couldn't help but look back at the room full of urns.
"That's right, Sister Yan," Qian Chao also said, "Engraved on it are the names of all the people who have joined the Yunianhui from the past to the present. According to Senior Brother Chu Yuan, after everyone joins the Yunianhui, after the first When you come here, you must leave your name on this stone wall. Well, I guess Senior Brother Chu Yuan’s name should be at the back. The people around us should be those who first founded the Yunianhui and participated in the early days of the Yunianhui. name."
"I see."
"Be good!"
Although Lu Pingchuan didn't recognize a few characters, he also knew that a person's name could be either three characters or two characters. Of course, Qian Chao also told him that some people had multiple surnames and their names might be four characters. Look There are countless words on the whole stone wall here. It seems that there are many people here. He asked:
"Brother Qian, how many people are there?"
Qian Chao shook his head. He didn't know, and Chu Yuan didn't know either. Qian Chao made a rough estimate and said:
"Tens of thousands!"
"Yu Nianhui," Li Jianye said softly, "Brother Qian, their purpose is to build a foundation. So how many of these names are the ones who finally built a foundation?"
"Very few." Qian Chao also said softly.
"Alas!" Li Jian sighed. This shows how difficult cultivation is.
Tang Ping suddenly reached out and pointed to the top of the stone wall where the light from the talisman was shining and said:
"Look there, who is left there?"
"What is it?" Yanxuan asked.
"Yes...it seems to be a poem written by someone. It's at the top." Tang Ping replied.
Li Jian had the best eyesight. He looked up and then read softly:
"The dew at night is beginning to set and the sun is thinning
The cicadas chirp mutely and the autumn wind blows
A hundred years of bitter hatred will never die
How dare you waste the rest of your life?"
After listening, Tang Ping asked:
"Who wrote this?"
"There is no title," Li Jian replied, "but I think this may be the origin of the name Yu Nianhui."
"It should be so." Qian Chao said.
Tang Ping nodded, pointed to a spot above the stone wall and said:
"It's also there, it's a five-character poem."
Yanxuan saw it clearly and read aloud:
"Body like a dead branch
Heart like an old root
I just wish the sun would be warm in spring
In the forest of colorful flowers
Rain falls and thunder arrives
The snow is drifting and the north wind is cold
Worst to see the woodcutter
Cutting down cooking smoke"
After reading it, Yanxuan shook his head, as if he felt the mood of the poet who wrote it.
Tang Ping said:
"This poem sounds frightening, which shows that the person who wrote the poem was worried."
Qian Chao also said:
"Well, probably most people in Yu Nian Hui have this mentality. Hey, there's another song there."
After saying that, Qian Chao recited the words:
"Having a withered heart and a half-life-long body
A joke about past ambitions
Don’t blame this life for having empty ambitions
I just hate that the sky will not take the New Year off."
"Ah, so much resentment!" Yanxuan said.
"indeed so."
…
Yu Nian Hui, now the activities of Yu Nian Hui in Wuling Sect have almost disappeared.
This also has a great relationship with the five of them.
When Luo Ying and Qian Chao cooperated to open the ruins to search for the Haiyun Jade Fat Lamp, Yu Nianhui suffered a big setback. After that, Luo Ying and others rarely left the sect and only concentrated on practicing, which made Yu Nian You will no longer be able to find opportunities from them. Later, under the leadership of Chu Yuan, Yu Nianhui set his sights on Qian Chao and the other five people. Unfortunately, they chose the wrong target. Later, Qian Chao and the other five people met Shangguan Hong and her master at Pinghai Peak when they were looking for the Green Luan Egg. Qiu Huahe, and the people from Yu Nianhui were quietly following behind. Because Qiu Huahe could not find the egg of Qingluan on Pinghai Peak, he made his spiritual bird, the human-faced owl, transform into thousands of people, and went to the nearby mountains and forests to search carefully. One of the incarnations of a human-faced owl landed in the hiding place of the Yu Nianhui people. Chu Yuan and some of the Yu Nianhui people were so frightened by the terror of the human-faced owl that they dispersed like birds and beasts.
That was the beginning of Yu Nian Hui's decline.
Later, Qian Chao subdued Chu Yuan.
What happened next was that Qian Chao and the five men completely defeated Wen Liang in the big meadow. Then Wen Liang, who was not willing to fail, seized the cold pool with Yan Ding in order to continue his plan. Yu Nianhui, who was in the cold pool at that time, People were either killed or captured by Wen Liang. Chu Yuan escaped with all his life and endured the pain and rushed back to Wuling Sect to deliver a message to Qian Chao. From then on, Yu Nianhui basically disappeared from Wuling Sect. , and not long after, Chu Yuan also succeeded in building the foundation because of the Haiyun Jade Lamp given by Qian Chao. Now he is sent outside by the sect. It is estimated that Chu Yuan is one of the very few people from Yu Nianhui who can successfully build the foundation.
Maybe many years later there will be an organization like Yu Nianhui in Wuling Sect, but at least for now Yu Nianhui no longer exists.
Qian Chao and the other five people all understood why such a group of people appeared in Yu Nian. This world of cultivation is not a fair place to begin with. Everyone has a different starting point on the road of cultivation due to innate reasons. Disciples from small aristocratic families Naturally different from the disciples from big families, the ordinary disciples in the sect are even more different from the disciples from the five clans in the sect. This is both reality and helpless. The starting point of many people is the end point that many people cannot reach in their lifetime!
The world's affairs are not concerned with few but with inequality. Differences caused by innate reasons will naturally make many people feel unfair. But more importantly, even if the world of cultivation is really a fair and pure land, and all monks embark on the journey of cultivating immortality from the same place, cultivation cannot be a fair thing for all monks. Because people are different, some of them may have high talents or good qualifications, and naturally their cultivation will improve much faster than their peers.
Regardless of whether they have high talent or good qualifications, such disciples will not only make rapid progress in practice within the sect, but will also attract the attention of some elders. Then it is naturally possible for them to become the disciples of those elders, while the other disciples will not. This opportunity will arise, and the gap between the two parties will become wider and wider. For those Wuling disciples who lack talent or qualifications, the only comfort is the saying "diligence can make up for weakness".
But the real situation is... like many things, diligence... may not make up for failure.
Especially in practice.
Many years have passed by the time many monks understand this sentence, and it is almost impossible to look back. Apart from anything else, in Wuling Sect, it is common to see those ambitious foundation-building brothers in the sect. Sometimes you can still see those immortal elixir-forming seniors. Those are the goals that everyone aspires to achieve.
Foundation building is the only goal of these people in the Yu Nianhui. To this end, they are willing to use all means. As for the benefits of foundation building, in addition to the great improvement of aura and means, the most practical benefit is ...The lifespan of a Qi Refining cultivator is less than two hundred, while the lifespan of a Foundation-Building cultivator is measured in hundreds of years, and the lifespan of a Pill-forming cultivator is even more exaggerated.
Building a foundation at least means a longer lifespan.
As long as you can build the foundation, you can not only go to the world of cultivation to see what the world is like, and experience many things that you have never seen or heard of in the Five Spirits Sect, but more importantly, you can continue your search calmly. The way to live forever.
Cultivation consumes time, and time is both fair and extremely unfair to every monk!
Leaving aside those who build foundations and those who form pills, let’s just talk about those who are fellow practitioners, those who entered the Five Spirits Sect together, or even entered the Five Spirits Sect later than myself, just because their talents or qualifications are better, and they have Many people have begun to prepare for foundation building and have even built foundations that have become a force that the sect can rely on. However, at the same time, there are still many people whose cultivation is just stagnant. Such wastage is very painful, and it cannot be solved by human power. If there is no chance, it may continue to be wasted for more than ten or even decades. The life span of Qi Refining disciples is limited, and foundation building is far away in the blink of an eye. In a situation where life is about to be exhausted, even people with the best intentions will have different thoughts in their hearts when facing life and death.
They all have a question in their hearts that makes them ponder and puzzle over: Why!
Why do those people come from families that are more powerful than his own, so that they can practice calmly without having to work hard for spiritual stones like himself?
Why do those people have better qualifications or higher talents than themselves when they are born? This is the most puzzling thing. Why did God let me be born like this?
Why do the elders in the sect want to recruit these people as disciples? Why can't these elders be impressed by this mental and perseverance even though they have worked hard for cultivation?
Why can I build a foundation in a few years, but the deadline is right in front of me!
How come many years later, when I have long been dead and unaware, those people can still live freely on the top of the mountain, in the sea of clouds, in the sky and on the earth!
This is the origin of Yu Nian Hui.
Don’t worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality!
Just to continue living, a modest gentleman can become a violent person, and a law-abiding person can become a treacherous person. When these people gather together with the same goal, they form the so-called Yu Nian Hui.
Everyone in Yu Nianhui has done evil things. What they want is actually very simple, that is, at least to survive.
Only by building foundation can we continue to exist in this world, and only by living in this world can our original ambitions be realized!
I don’t complain that my ambitions in this life are empty, I just hate that the sky doesn’t give me a holiday!
