After a little boosting the morale of the new disciples, Che Shidao continued: "Now that our Cangwu Mountain Villa has just been established, everything is simple and everything is simple, so I won't do any entrance ceremony.
These are your status jade badges, and my Taiping Dao disciples' clothing.
There are two jade tablets, one is the original and the other is the original. You drip essence and blood into the two jade tablets, leaving a trace of your soul to record your aura and identity.
Then you keep the authentic cards for your own identification purposes.
The remaining deck is turned in and included in the sect for backup.
With the secondary card, the sect can use the blood essence and soul left behind by you to check your safety status at any time and know the status of the disciples in time.
Through this, if you encounter danger when you go out in the future, the sect can also learn about it and send people to rescue you. "
After saying that, Che Shidao waved his sleeves and distributed the prepared jade plaques and clothing to the disciples.
"Thank you, Master."
The disciples quickly took it and then saluted.
Che Shidao nodded slightly: "No need to thank you, please record the jade cards first, and then hand over the deputy cards."
"yes."
Each disciple responded to the order, and then used their own magic to force out the essence and blood, separate the soul, enter the main and secondary jade cards respectively, then keep the main card, and then respectfully hand over the second card.
Che Shidao collected the deck of cards with a flick of his hand, and then said with a smile: "The mountain gate here has not been rebuilt yet, and most of the attic palaces left in the Changqing Villa have been abandoned and cannot be used.
I won’t distribute the caves to you yet.
You can choose any place to stay in the mountain first, and then use these few days to get familiar with the environment in the mountain, communicate with your brothers and sisters, and then choose the Taoist method you want to practice.
After ten days, come and study with me again. I will give you guidance for one month to help you master Taoism as soon as possible.
After you finish studying Taoism, I will take you to go out and experience it.
My uncle, Qing Guanzi, the supreme elder of our sect, led many real people not long ago to wipe out the Jiuchuan Dragon Palace, drive out the evil dragons in it, and take over the Jiuchuan Kingdom.
But the two dragons were driven away, but there were still many demons left in Jiuchuan.
Uncle Master and others are too lazy to pay attention to these little monsters, but as the younger generation of disciples, we cannot indulge.
I have been ordered to supervise the two kingdoms of Xiaye and Jiuchuan. Jiuchuan is also under my jurisdiction and is under my management.
I will never tolerate demons causing trouble within my jurisdiction.
Since you have entered my sect, you must follow my methods. From now on, you should take it as your own responsibility to slay demons and demons, maintain the righteous path of my immortal sect, and protect the common people of our human race.
This time Jiuchuan eliminates demons, all introductory disciples must participate.
I will hold a Jiuchuan Magic Elimination Conference, and all the disciples participating in the conference who have made more contributions will be rewarded.
The person with the first name will be given the true biography by me as an encouragement.
Do you know? "
All the disciples were very excited when they heard that the prizes from this Dharma Assembly, especially the first place, would be rewarded with the status of true disciples.
This true successor status can be regarded as an opportunity to become an immortal.
As long as you win it, you can be trained by the sect. If you work hard and have enough talent and luck.
It is not impossible to become an immortal in the future.
Naturally, no one can resist this great opportunity.
"I accept your order!"
All the disciples shouted in unison to express their attitude.
"Okay, now you go down first and take a good look at Cangwu Mountain. It will be your home from now on."
After accepting the disciples and explaining some of the details of the sect and the upcoming itinerary, Che Shidao had nothing more to say, so he waved his hand and asked everyone to leave.
Then his eyes moved to Li Ruoqing: "Fellow Daoist Li, stop for a moment."
"Ma'am, I'll take my leave."
When all the disciples saw this, they all left without disturbing the two of them.
After there were only two people here, Li Ruoqing took the initiative to salute Che Shidao and thank him: "Master Che, thank you very much for accepting all my colleagues. I will keep these help in my heart."
Being able to see fellow Taoists who had been with him through life and death get a good future, Li Ruoqing was naturally extremely happy when he saw this scene.
Therefore, I am extremely grateful to Che Shidao who did all this.
"Fellow Taoist, you are so polite. I should be the one to thank you. You have recommended so many talented people to Taiping Dao, which has suddenly solved my manpower shortage problem. This is all your fault."
Che Shidao waved his hand, not daring to bear the gratitude. After smiling, he said eagerly: "Fellow Taoist, there are still channels that have not joined other immortal sects. If there are, you can continue to recommend them.
This real person governs two countries and one realm. Many affairs are complicated and require a large number of people to help handle them. The more than thirty people in front of me are not enough.
Fellow Daoist Li doesn't want to worry too much. As long as there is a suitable candidate and he is recommended, even a poor Taoist can accept him. "
Hearing this, Li Ruoqing immediately said: "If the real person still needs disciples, I still have some colleagues there, and I can ask them to come over and meet the real person later."
Che Shidao laughed: "Then this couldn't be better, so I'll trouble you fellow Taoist."
To manage two countries and one border well requires a lot of manpower.
Che Shidao has already ordered Chen Hongyuan to select the available ghosts from the underworld for the gods of mountains, rivers, cities and other places. Once all the ghosts are available, they can be canonized as gods and let them take office.
With the volume of hundreds of thousands of ghosts in the underworld, it is completely enough to fill the two countries and one realm, and there is even room to support the other countries under the rule of Taiping Dao.
So he doesn't need to worry too much about this.
After waiting for a few days, the ghost inventory report will come up, and the priesthood will be issued, and the Shinto system of the two countries can be established.
But for the rule of various countries in the Taiping Dao, gods alone are not enough.
Because the strength of the gods is limited by the priesthood, they can only be fully displayed within their own jurisdiction.
Outside the jurisdiction, a god's strength will drop sharply.
The farther away you are, the more your strength will drop.
Even within the Taiping Dao Shinto network, when gods from different jurisdictions are recruited and moved, their strength will be weakened to varying degrees.
Limited to this situation, when unrest breaks out in a certain area and the local gods cannot handle it, and assistance is urgently needed, support from forces other than gods is needed.
This is the purpose of guarding the disciples in the other courtyards of the Immortal Sect.
Use the gods to guard the place, and use the disciples of other courtyards as mobile forces to support everywhere at any time.
Such a system forms the foundation of each immortal sect's rule over the countries under its control.
And if you want to maintain such a system and rule a country with a territory of tens of thousands of miles, you will naturally need a lot of manpower.
In terms of Shinto such as mountains, rivers and city gods, thousands of gods, big and small, are needed. Including the Yin soldiers under the gods, in a country's Shinto system, the number of organized gods and Yin soldiers alone is fifty to sixty thousand.
As for the core disciples of other schools, even as an elite force, their number needs to be maintained at more than three hundred in order to maintain sufficient deterrence to the local area.
Note that these three hundred disciples refer to the elites whose cultivation is at least three qi or above, not the kind of miscellaneous fish who can only make up the numbers by condensing one or two qi.
Cheshidao governs two countries and one realm. Among them, the two realms of the Yang Realm alone need one hundred thousand gods and Yin soldiers, and the Yin realm has one hundred thousand gods and Yin soldiers. Together, there are two hundred thousand Yin gods.
This number can be easily filled with hundreds of thousands of ghosts in the underworld.
But the two annexes of Jiuchuan Kingdom and Xiaye Kingdom, with a combined total of at least 600 disciples, would be difficult for him.
This difficulty does not mean that he cannot accept so many people.
Although the two countries of Jiuchuan and Xiaye have been ravaged by demons before, the local people are living in dire straits and their lives are in dire straits.
But those monsters don't just kill people when they see them or massacre cities when they see them.
Even in places like the Night Kingdom where demons and demons fight, there are still many demons who will feed a large number of humans as blood food in the areas they occupy.
If Black Turtle Mountain is an area controlled by demons, then the human race people above will have a better life. Some of them will not even use it as blood food and can continue to live a happy life.
And for example, the Jiuchuan Kingdom, a demon kingdom that has been unified, has established an even better order. The human race above it can be continuously squeezed and supported, and they will not be massacred at will, so more people can survive.
Therefore, although Che Shidao has not carried out a detailed census of the population of Jiuchuan and Xiaye, according to past knowledge, a rough estimate is that it will not be less than 150 million people at least.
Even more, 200 million people, is not impossible.
With so many people here, even if you follow the requirement of one in ten thousand, you can select tens of thousands of disciples with medium qualifications.
Even with superior qualifications, it is not difficult to select thousands of people.
But the problem is that there are disciples who meet the entry requirements, but after these disciples enter, if they want to cultivate talents, that is, the minimum cultivation level of condensing three qi that can be sent out to walk, it will take at least a hundred years.
Given the current situation on the Taiping Road, a large number of newly occupied territories are unguarded, and what is needed are disciples who can be drawn out and used immediately to fill the vacancies.
How can there be a hundred years to wait for those disciples to grow up.
Faced with this situation of manpower shortage, Lu Yuan decided to solve the problem from three aspects after discussion.
One is the two immortal sects, Fenglei Bao and Qingshan Pavilion, which were recruited from the Qingyang Kingdom. Among the disciples who submit to their sects, suitable candidates are selected, granted the status of inner sect disciples, and incorporated into other sects.
According to the reports from Yidan City, it is expected that from these two immortal sects, 700 disciples with cultivation levels of condensing three qi or above can be selected.
Just relying on these people can completely fill the two countries of Qingyang and Damu under the jurisdiction of Yidan City.
There is even enough room to support a hundred people to move to other hospitals.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about the territory to the west of Taiping Road for now.
As for Miyun Mountain, where the headquarters of Taiping Dao Sect is located, in the territory of Youxin Kingdom, the method Lu Yuan adopted was to train more Yellow Turban Warriors to increase the grassroots mobility of the sect headquarters.
At present, after his urgent enlightenment, the number of Yellow Turban warriors in Miyun Mountain has been expanded to four hundred, which is enough to cope with the situation of Xin State.
This is the second way to expand manpower.
However, after the Taoist soldiers reached four hundred, Lu Yuan had almost used up all the materials he had collected in killing demons and demons in the past few years.
In a short period of time, it will be impossible to continue to expand the number of Yellow Turban warriors without more sources of materials.
In addition, there are about two hundred and thirty new disciples in Miyun Mountain. These people will also serve as the future foundation of the sect and receive careful training from Taiping Tao.
And these numbers will continue to increase in the future, eventually maintaining around five hundred.
Five hundred disciples is the total number of disciples Lu Yuan has set at Miyun Mountain.
Finally, here in Xiaye Kingdom, what Che Shidao is doing is to recruit some casual cultivators who follow Li Ruoqing.
In the past two years, influenced by Li Ruoqing's reputation, the number of monks who came to follow him to slay demons and demons was about three hundred.
Among the more than 300 people, many are disciples of other immortal sects who are traveling abroad. The number is about 80. It is naturally impossible for these to join Taiping Dao.
There are more than two hundred people left, and most of them have low cultivation levels. They can only gather one or two Qi. At the same time, they have low qualifications and do not meet the entry requirements at all.
These people also need to be excluded.
After these two rounds of screening, about eighty people are left who meet the requirements.
This time, in order to fulfill his instructions and live up to Che Shidao's trust, Li Ruoqing selected and recommended the colleagues who were striving for excellence and only recommended those who he felt were outstanding enough.
So this time, more than thirty people, Che Shidao, were extremely satisfied after seeing it, and let them get started directly.
But this does not mean that the remaining forty-odd people are in poor condition and cannot be used.
In the initial stage of the foundation, Taiping Dao did not have high requirements for its disciples, as long as they could use it.
As long as the remaining people's cultivation can meet the requirements of condensing the three qi and their character is good enough, Che Shidao will not mind being accepted as his disciple.
Anyway, what he wants is just a coolie thug. As long as he can meet the conditions of being a thug and give the other party the status of an inner disciple, so what?
The treatment of a mere inner sect disciple, who was already dominating the five kingdoms of Taiping Dao, could still be afforded.
They are not true disciples, so they need to spend a lot of resources and energy to cultivate them. If you raise one to waste, you will lose blood.
In contrast, the most important thing is to take control of the territory of the five countries as early as possible, develop the resources above, and then cultivate more true immortals for Taiping Road.
Incorporate the more than forty remaining comrades of Li Ruoqing, and then accept some disciples from Qingyang Kingdom, and then send a hundred or so yellow scarf warriors from my side.
If you gather them together like this, you can gather almost 400 people.
Jiuchuan and Xiaye are divided into two countries, and a separate courtyard can have 200 people.
Although it is a little less than normal needs, it is actually barely enough.
After all, this place is located at the rear of the southern region and is not bordered by the frontline battlefields of Kyushu Immortal Sect. Overall, it is relatively stable.
As long as the demons in the territory are cleared away, there is no need to worry about causing any trouble.
Moreover, there is also Chen Hongyuan, the Emperor of the Yin Division, in the underworld.
Although the other party is restricted by the priesthood to the underworld, it is still okay for him to come out for a short time and visit the Lower Night Country near the underworld.
This is also a human immortal's combat power, which can be used as a force for Xia Ye Kingdom to mobilize urgently when necessary.
As for Jiuchuan Kingdom.
Che Shidao planned to move there after the Magic Exorcism Association, and then personally take charge of the Jiuchuan River.
This river covers the water system of the Changqing Basin and is as important as two or three small countries.
Jiuchuan Dragon Palace relied on this to raise two dragons.
Of course, Taipingdao must control such an important place and cannot leave it alone.
So after sorting out the place in Xiaye Kingdom, General Che Shidao went there in person to take good care of this great river for me.
Moreover, as the Jiuchuan Kingdom is the easternmost territory of Taiping Road, such a border area does need true immortals to be in charge.
With this arrangement, although everything is stretched thin, other hospitals in various places will bear a lot of responsibilities and be very busy.
But there is nothing that can be done about this nascent business.
We can only survive these hundred years first. After a hundred years, when the new disciples have grown up and the Emperor's Golden Blade is achieving Dao Fruit, there will be a lot more manpower and there will be no need to be so busy anymore.
Just wait and see.
