After the leader and the other elders left, Elder Yu and several elders took Ning Tao and others to the square where the sect's main hall was located.
This is the square where Ning Tao and others first arrived at Yaowang Sect. When they came to a side hall next to it, Ning Tao and others stood in front of the huge stone hall that was tens of meters high and looked at it carefully to feel the majesty of it.
After Elder Yu and others entered, several disciples in the room quickly stood up to greet them. After Elder Yu finished explaining, these people led Ning Tao and others to the side to register everyone.
After these elders took their seats in the hall, they released a paper crane from the storage bag around their waists. After whispering a few words to it, they left it alone and chatted with Elder Yu on their own.
While everyone was registering and making the register, several monks who looked like disciples entered the hall. After accepting the instructions from the elders of each hall, they stood aside and chatted in low voices while Ning Tao and others were waiting to register and make the register.
After Ning Tao and others received the badges belonging to true disciples, several people stepped forward and took Ning Tao and others away...
Ning Tao, who had been busy all day, was sitting cross-legged in the small courtyard room he had just been assigned to, playing with a green jade waist badge in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.
Ning Tao's name is engraved on the front of the waistband, and a small tripod is engraved on the back. There are some cloud seals around it, but I don't know what they are used for.
After Ning Tao became an official disciple, he finally understood his current situation from the words of the elders and other senior brothers.
The Yaowang Sect is located in Shuzhou, one of the three states in the southern region. There are three major sects in the state, namely the Taiyi Sword Sect, the Yaowang Sect, and the Shuiling Sect. There is also an alliance of casual cultivators, the Tianxing Alliance, and the rest are large and small. There are more than a hundred small sects, families, and Taoist temples, which are divided into three sects, one alliance, and twelve sects according to their strength. Among them, sects that do not even have golden elixirs are not included in the ranking.
Among them, the Tianxing Alliance is vaguely more powerful than the Taiyi Sword Sect, but in Shu, the three major sects still have the right to speak together, and because they have a common enemy, the three sects are connected with the same spirit, and have always been advancing and retreating together, and fighting against each other. enemy.
According to rumors, Master Tianxing, who founded the Tianxing Alliance, had a close relationship with several Yuan Ying realm ancestors from the three major sects. The ancestors of several sects were even more helpful in saving their lives. They were invited by several sects to establish the Rogue Cultivator Alliance here and lead the state. Neiyigan is a casual cultivator.
Among the three major sects in Shuzhou, Yaowang Sect is located in the middle, Taiyi Sword Sect is to the south, Shuiling Sect is to the north, and they are distributed diagonally. The headquarters of the Loose Cultivator Alliance is in the southernmost part of Shu, and Taiyi Sword Sect is to the south. It became a corner, and the other sects and families were scattered all over the place.
In Shuzhou, all immortal cultivating families must rely on sects for their existence. If a Yuanying ancestor is born in the family, they must abandon their family identity and join the loose cultivator alliance. Although they can still take care of the family, when the southern wilderness invades, they must obey the three sects. Fight the enemy together with the orders of the Sky Star Alliance.
There was once a cultivating family whose Yuanying ancestor refused to accept the arrangement and was directly annihilated by the three major sects together with the Tianxing Alliance, and was removed from the cultivating world.
The reason is very simple. This is because there is no free lunch in the world. The three sects and one alliance can withstand the pressure of the barbaric invasion from the south, and these immortal cultivating families are protected under the three sects and one alliance.
When the ancestor of Yuanying appears in the cultivating family, they must contribute to the entire Shuzhou. Otherwise, these cultivating families will be like bone-attached leeches, constantly lying on the bodies of the three sects and one alliance to suck blood. One day, they will There is a situation where the Immortal Cultivation Family is larger than the three sects and one alliance, and is gradually replaced by it. This is absolutely not allowed in the eyes of the ancestors of the three sects.
The Yaowang Sect has more than 20,000 disciples and thousands of handyman disciples, among whom disciples in the Qi training period account for the majority. They are called outer disciples and can serve as the deacon disciples of the sect.
There are more than two thousand people in the Foundation Establishment realm, divided into the inner sect and the outer sect. In addition to completing the necessary tasks assigned by the sect and specializing in cultivation, the foundation building monks in the inner sect serve as deacons, elders of the outer sect, and elders of the outer sect. The position of head is responsible for many affairs of the sect's operation. Most of the people who are called uncles by the teaching brothers actually fall into this category.
As for the elders of the Golden Core Stage, there are only a few dozen who serve as the masters of each peak. They have been in seclusion for many years and do not care about the affairs of the sect easily. The disciples cannot see these people on weekdays.
As for the Yuan Ying realm ancestors in the sect, there are only three of them. They are the pillars of the sect and are called Supreme Elders. On weekdays, the dragon is always seen but not seen. They have profound Taoist skills and unfathomable magical power. The top figure in the surrounding area.
What really determines the life and death of the sect is the Jindan elders and Yuanying ancestors who are not involved in Xiaoyao sect affairs.
It is precisely because of them that the Yaowang Sect remains standing. Otherwise, just with these Qi training and foundation-building monks, the Yaowang Sect would have been eliminated from the world of immortality long ago.
Before, Ning Tao saw many Taoists in the Qianyuan Realm who were foundation-building monks. Above Lei Peng, standing on both sides of the palace were many Jindan elders, and the three people sitting cross-legged in the middle were the Nascent Soul Realm of the three sects. The Supreme Elder.
In the Medicine King Sect, when the disciples in the Qi training period are building their foundation, they can open a cave in the Medicine King Sect's domain to practice. Except for the occasional completion of tasks assigned by the sect, the rest of the time can be arranged by oneself.
According to different realms, each sect member will receive different offerings every year, including one hundred spiritual stones in the later stage of Qi training and three hundred spiritual stones in the Great Perfection period; two thousand spiritual stones in the early stage of foundation building, three thousand spiritual stones in the middle stage, and four thousand spiritual stones in the later stage. , as for the Jindan Yuanying, it is unknown.
These senior deacons who led themselves and others to become familiar with the sect and helped handle various entry-level affairs told all the new disciples one by one, allowing Ning Tao and others to have a clear understanding of the sect and its environment. .
As for why this is so, in fact, these deacon brothers would not tell these new disciples so many things in such detail, but Ning Tao and others are the first ones to stand out among this group of Taoist boys.
In the eyes of these senior fellow deacons, Ning Tao and others are people who can expect to build a foundation in the future and even achieve the golden elixir, so they act like this to form a good relationship.
Ning Tao got up early the next day and walked towards Senior Brother Yang's cave he had inquired about yesterday. Half an hour later, Ning Tao came to the foot of a beautiful small peak. He followed a trail and turned around until he came to a place shrouded in clouds and mist.
Looking at the place shrouded in white clouds and smoke, he took out the paper crane that Senior Brother Yang had given to him before leaving from the storage bag on his waist, lowered his head and whispered to it a few times, pinched the magic spell to drive it into it, and after a while , the clouds and mist separated a small path for one person to pass through, Ning Tao raised his legs and walked inside...
Through the mist trail, we came to a courtyard about four or five acres in size. The courtyard was close to a mountain wall. In the courtyard, there were stone tables, ancient trees, pools, koi carps, and several places shrouded in smoke. Don't know what it looks like.
At this time, the door of the room opened, and Senior Brother Yang's voice came from inside, asking him to wait in the room for a while.
Arriving inside the house, a few chairs were neatly placed in the middle and on both sides. There was a landscape screen in the middle, but nothing else.
Ning Tao was bored sitting in the room waiting for Senior Brother Yang. He took out a thick book called "Shuzhou Magazine" from the storage bag he had newly received and read it with relish.
Time passed quickly, and as the sun went up, Senior Brother Yang came out from behind the screen in the room, saw Ning Tao, and greeted him with a smile.
When Ning Tao heard the noise, he put away the books in his hands and stood up to salute. Senior Brother Yang waved his hand and sat on the main seat.
Yang Feng, who had not seen him for more than two months, teased Ning Tao and asked Ning Tao how he felt about becoming an official disciple. Then he asked Ning Tao about his current practice and whether he had taken advantage of the opportunity to choose exercises after becoming an official disciple.
After learning that Ning Tao had not acted without authorization, he nodded with satisfaction and told him not to follow the crowd and practice the "Yao Wang Canon" technique. He could go to the Chuandao Pavilion to choose a technique called "Yi Mu Xin Yan Jue" Dharma is suitable for the wood-fire spiritual roots of his body.
After cultivating the golden elixir, a magical power will be born. As for the means of attack, you can choose a sword technique, which can be placed in spells and so on. You have it here, so there is no need to waste the opportunity of the Chuandao Pavilion.
After chatting with Ning Tao for a while, he arranged for him to help him take care of the cave, take care of the elixir garden in the courtyard, and help him with daily alchemy. For Ning Tao, it was very easy.
Before Ning Tao left, Yang Feng gave him another token that could open the external formation, and then sent Ning Tao away.
After leaving, Ning Tao inquired about the location of Chuandao Pavilion from his passing senior brother, and then went to Chuandao Pavilion alone.
Ning Tao walked all the way to a loft with a wood and stone structure. The walls were covered with moss, and the wood felt a bit rotten.
When Ning Tao came to the mottled door, he saw an old man lying on a table in the room, fast asleep. Ning Tao was too embarrassed to disturb him, so he sat down on the threshold and picked up a book. He looked at it dreamily.
The sun was setting in the west. During this period, Ning Tao looked up several times and found that the old man had no intention of waking up. He couldn't help but shook his head and continued to read with his book down.
After waiting for another hour, Ning Tao saw that the old man really had no intention of waking up. He sighed, stood up and stretched before preparing to leave and come back another day.
Just as he was about to leave, there was a yawn behind him. Ning Tao heard the noise and turned around to see the old man rubbing his eyes with one hand and yawning.
Ning Tao returned to the room and stood waiting. Seeing that the old man had recovered his composure, he saluted and said, "I've seen you, senior. I'm Ning Tao, a new disciple of the sect, here to choose a technique."
The old man glanced at Ning Tao and said: "The Qi training exercises, magic arts and so on are all on the first floor. Enter the room and turn right. In two hours, there will be one skill and one magic trick. Okay, take the jade Jane comes out and registers with me."
After saying that, he ignored Ning Tao and went to sleep again.
Ning Tao was not angry when he saw this and walked straight into the house.
Turning around the corridor, I saw dozens of bookshelves filled with jade slips of various colors. The bookshelves were also labeled with exercises, spells, spells, alchemy, talismans, etc. It was dazzling.
