The Shennong Pavilion was inherited from the Holy Emperor Shennong. When the human race was struggling to survive in the wilderness, it relied on the ancestors of the human race to overcome thorns and obstacles, the second was that the human race continued to strive for self-improvement, and the third was that the human race was inclusive, whether it was the demon clan, the witch clan, or the Other races in the ancient times can be tolerated by the human race as long as they are willing to join the human race.
Therefore, the Dragon Clan not only serves as the Dragon God of the human race, but also becomes the totem of the human race. The masters of the human race in the past generations are known as the true dragons; the Suzaku, Xuanwu, Baihu and other ancient relics have become auspicious to the human race, and the twelve zodiac signs are all demons. clan.
After Emperor Xuanyuan defeated Chi You, he integrated Chi You's Jiuli tribe, an ethnic group with witch descent, into the human race. Even now, there are still witch doctors and sacrificial wizards left in many places.
Since Shennong Pavilion inherited the Shennong Taoist tradition, it naturally also inherited the tradition of inclusiveness among human beings.
If in other sects, they rarely accept disciples who are introductory to the arts. Most of them train their own disciples from an early age, and most of the adults they recruit are under the innate realm, because this does not involve the fundamentals of cultivation.
Cultivation of the soul begins innately, and most of this involves the secrets of cultivation of various sects.
So in fact, for Qingyang, he doesn't have many choices, either as a casual cultivator, relying on his own Taiyuan Jiuling Yuanyang Sutra and Qingyang Immortality Sutra, as well as Ruoye Sword Making Record, Blood Ax Sutra, and Shenren Casting Iron Way Yun, etc., plus the skills given by Yun Gushe, are enough to establish a sect and become the leader of one.
It's just that his cultivation level is too low now, and he hasn't even completed the foundation building yet. Although his combat power is no worse than that of the foundation building stage, he still has no power to fight back in front of the Jindan Human Immortal, let alone the Yang Shen Earth Immortal.
And his destiny is in Wuliang Mountain. With his cultivation at this time, if he establishes a sect in Wuliang Mountain, he may be wiped out by the four Wuliang sects and a group of Southern Wilderness Demon Sects.
Therefore, he can only choose the Three Emperors Tradition, because only the Three Emperors Tradition does not care about one's origin. Even if you are starting out as an artist, as long as you put the human race first and can be recognized, you can get started.
In the Southern Wilderness, Shennong Pavilion can undoubtedly represent the orthodoxy of Emperor Yandi, one of the three emperors.
The entrance ceremony to Shennong Pavilion was not complicated. Three days later, Qingyang, dressed in green attire, went to the Patriarch Hall of Shennong Pavilion under the guidance of Jiang Baishu. As soon as he walked outside, he felt the legacy of the Holy Emperor.
bright! solemn! Great! warmth! mercy!
It seems that all the beauty in the world can be felt in it.
As soon as Qingyang approached, the anxiety in his heart disappeared without a trace, and he felt extremely at ease, as if there was no one more trustworthy and reliable in the world than here.
When he walked to the door of the Patriarch Hall, no one opened the door. Jiang Baishu motioned Qingyang to walk in.
Qingyang concentrated, tidied up his clothes, and then stepped into the Patriarch Hall. He saw a statue of Holy Emperor Shen Nong in the center of the Patriarch Hall. It was lifelike. At first glance, it looked like the supreme emperor. At second glance, it looked like an old farmer working in the fields. Or a doctor who tastes medicine in the mountains, a teacher who teaches in a school...
Just a statue shows all kinds of human dharma. He is truly worthy of being the Holy Emperor of the human race, with great merits and virtues.
To the left and right of the statue of the Holy Emperor were the ancestors of Shennong Pavilion. Qingyang silently counted in his mind that there were seventy-two statues of the ancestors in total.
Although these statues do not show all the phenomena of the world as well as the statues of Shen Nong and Emperor Shen Nong, they are each different in their own way and lifelike.
The Patriarch's Hall may not look big from the outside, but with so many statues inside, it still looks spacious and bright, without being crowded at all. It is obvious that the Patriarch's Hall is its own space and is a spatial treasure.
In front of the statue, the master of the pavilion, Jiang Chengming, and three old men were sitting upright, obviously waiting for the next visit.
The four of them were all so powerful that Qingyang couldn't see their cultivation at all. He only felt as if he was facing four heavens and earth, and a sense of oppression came over his face.
Behind the pavilion master stood a young man with a simple and honest face. He was the elder brother Jiang Yanxun whom Qingyang had met before when he visited the secret realm. When he saw Qingyang coming in, he smiled and nodded.
Qingyang collected his thoughts and saluted Jiang Chengming and the three old men.
Jiang Chengming saw that he could remain so calm despite being forced by the statue of his ancestor and the momentum of his four golden elixir monks. He felt happy and said, "Qingyang, because you aroused the spiritual consciousness of the ancestor, you have a predestined relationship with me, Shennong Pavilion, and you have gone through the eight gates of disillusionment." After the great test, the Holy Emperor passed on the Qi Emperor's dance. Therefore, I will obey the destiny and accept you into my Shennong Pavilion under the witness of three elders. You will be listed in the golden book. I hope that after you enter, you will uphold the right path and inherit the wish of the God Emperor. , take the prosperity of the human race as our own responsibility, protect the human race, and promote our Shennong Pavilion orthodoxy!"
"This disciple is lucky enough to be admitted to the Holy Emperor's Taoist lineage. From now on, he will uphold the right path, protect the human race, and revitalize the Taoist lineage, and live up to the Holy Emperor's last wish!"
Qingyang replied respectfully.
"That's very good. Let's go first to pay homage to the Holy Emperor and the ancestors!"
Jiang Chengming said and motioned to Jiang Yanxun behind him. Jiang Yanxun nodded and brought the three pillars of sacred incense prepared in advance to Qingyang on a jade tray, "Let's meet the Holy Emperor and the ancestors of all generations first!"
The fragrance of the divine incense is fresh and calming, making Qingyang's spirit much refreshed.
Light the sacred incense with the spiritual fire of the incense table and insert it into the incense burner respectfully.
The divine fire on this incense table is not trivial. When the Holy Emperor Shennong ascended to heaven and became the Emperor of Heaven, he was known as the Emperor of Fire. He established the Tao with fire. The refined divine fire of creation can destroy all things, and can also create all things. There is even the possibility of reopening the world in high and deep places. able.
The sacred fire on this incense table has been burning ever since the establishment of Shennong Pavilion. It is a little fire left by Emperor Yan in the world. After thousands of years of continuous sacrifice by Shennong Pavilion, it has extraordinary power and is one of the heritage of Shennong Pavilion.
After Qingyang finished worshiping the Holy Emperor and the ancestors of all generations, Jiang Chengming continued, "Three elders, please follow me to activate the ancestor's ultimatum and respectfully ask the ancestor to bestow the law and name."
The ultimatum of the founder of Shennong Pavilion was left in the residence of Jiang Yan, the first generation founder of Shennong Pavilion. Jiang Yanju was the second generation Emperor Yan, so the ultimatum left behind is naturally of great importance, as it is a sacred relic passed down by Shennong Pavilion.
Every new disciple needs to go through the pavilion master and three elders to activate the dharma ultimatum to pass on the dharma to the disciple and give him a name.
This is why most of the disciples of Shennong Pavilion have the surname Jiang or Lie.
It can be said that this ancestor's ultimatum is the foundation of Shennong Pavilion's inheritance.
At this time, Jiang Chengming asked Qingyang to stand under the statue of the Holy Emperor, and then respectfully saluted and prayed to the statue of the Holy Emperor and the statues of the ancestors of the past generations. Qingyang has a natural aura and a pure and honest nature, so he was guided by the Holy Emperor and accepted as his disciple. I respectfully ask the Holy Emperor and the ancestors of all generations to bestow the Dharma and name!"
After praying, he signaled to the three elders, and then the four of them took their positions, activated their magic power, and shot four golden lights at a black stone tablet behind the statue of the Holy Emperor.
As soon as the golden light of magic power entered the Dharma Book, the Dharma Book seemed to be ignited, emitting a mysterious golden light that continued to circulate. Various mysterious techniques in it continued to appear and disappear. Outside of the golden light, names kept flashing and disappearing.
At this time, Jiang Chengming, the three elders, and Jiang Yanxun were all looking at the Dharma Book nervously, wondering what skills and names the Patriarch would bestow.
