"Third Elder, where is the Xuantian Sect of the First-Rank Immortal Sect?"
Five days have passed since I started practicing the twelve-ring Qi spectrum.
Now I practice every night, and go to the Dharma Teaching Hall during the day to listen to the third elder's talk about various common sense in the world of immortality, as well as the confusion encountered in cultivation.
Today the third elder talked about the clan forces near Luo Kingdom.
Zhao Yongqi then asked the question that had puzzled him for a long time.
Records in many books have mentioned the Xuantian Sect of the First-Rank Immortal Sect, but their existence has never been described in detail.
It inevitably made him curious.
"Xuan Tian Sect."
The third elder pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Well, you have entered the world of immortal cultivation. I should tell you these things, so as not to offend people who shouldn't be offended in the future."
"At first, I didn't know where the Xuantian Sect was. Later, after the patriarch established the foundation, I gradually found out through some of the classics the patriarch brought back to the family."
"..."
Through the narration of the third elder.
A vast world of cultivating immortals unfolded in front of Zhao Yongqi and the others.
It turns out that Luo State, where the Weishan Zhao family is located, is located in an area called the "Plain of Ten Thousand Kingdoms". This world of immortality is also called the "World of Immortality of All Nations".
Nations is an exaggeration.
But there are thousands of countries.
The entire Plain of Ten Thousand Nations was developed by the Xuantian Sect, a first-level immortal sect, which is located in the center of the Plain of Ten Thousand Nations.
The Xuantian Sect established a nine-level clan system.
The only first-level immortal sect is Xuantian Sect. All the clans in the entire Wanguo Plain, through the ninth-level clan system, pay the immortal cultivation qualifications to the upper-level clans step by step, and finally all converge into the only first-level immortal sect, Xuantian Sect.
After listening.
Zhao Yongqi and the other three looked at each other in confusion.
They all fell into deep silence and shock...
In the end, it was the 19th uncle Zhao Chonggu who spoke first. He exclaimed: "The world is so big. The Luo Kingdom is just a small country not ranked in the Plain of Ten Thousand Kingdoms. When I think about it, when I was ordinary, I was really sitting in a well and looking at the sky."
Zhao Yongqi was also eye-opening.
This was also the first time he heard the name "Plain of All Nations".
"Third Grandpa, where does our Weishan Zhao family rank in the nine-rank clan system?" Zhao Yongwen didn't think so much. She didn't have a special idea about the size of the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Plain, but she was only concerned about what rank her family ranked in.
"Several items..."
The third elder shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Our Zhao family in Weishan is just a small and unworthy clan."
He continued to explain in depth.
Let everyone understand more deeply the meaning of the ninth-grade clan system.
The nine-level clan system is the foundation for the stability of the Plains of All Nations.
According to Blue Star's popular parlance, the ninth-grade clan system is equivalent to a "large group chat"; in more popular terms, it is a "United Nations Organization".
If the clan is ranked into a rank.
Even the ninth rank at the lowest level can be regarded as entering the "organization"; all other clans in the Plains of Ten Thousand Nations, from the first rank Xuantian Sect to the ninth rank small clans, cannot openly use force to oppress those in the "organization" clan.
However, there are restrictions on entry.
For example, the lowest level of ninth grade requires ninth grade spiritual veins, at least one foundation-building monk in the clan, and monk members in the clan, etc.
Normally.
Weishan Zhao Jiaming looked at it from the outside.
The patriarch, Zhao Shouyan, is already a monk in the middle stage of foundation building, and the size of the Zhao family can barely reach the ninth-grade standard.
The reason why it is not yet accepted.
Even if he lacks ninth-grade spiritual veins, it can also be said to be a "quota".
Although there are many spiritual veins in the world, they are still limited. Ninth-grade spiritual veins have been owned earlier. As a rising star, if you want to own a spiritual vein, you can only step on the corpse of your "predecessor".
But a problem arises.
The "seniors" have long joined the ninth-grade clan system.
They are organized, and as a newly emerging wild force, they must not provoke organized forces, otherwise they will be attacked by a group.
This forms a refutation.
I want to join the ninth-grade clan system, but I don’t have the corresponding spiritual veins, and I can’t steal the spiritual veins of other forces.
then.
The so-called "quota" has been passed down.
In the internal system of the ninth-grade clan system, there will also be situations where the clan is in decline due to various reasons, and finally the clan power plummets.
at this time.
Naturally, we cannot kill and drive them away openly.
However, a clan with a higher level than him can use this as an excuse to launch a challenge meeting and use the battle of skills as a basis to give those clans that have not yet reached a higher level a chance to advance.
Not everyone can participate in the challenge.
The decision-making power lies in the hands of high-level clans.
Therefore, only those with tickets to the challenge meeting can be considered as having the "place" to be promoted to the ninth level; as for whether they can seize it, it all depends on the clan's own strength.
"Third Elder, if after entering the first level, you have to turn in a large amount of immortal cultivation materials every year, wouldn't it be better if we don't enter the first level?"
After listening to the third elder’s story.
Zhao Yongqi showed doubts.
The third elder shook his head: "It's not that simple."
"It takes more resources to cultivate immortality if you don't enter the rank." He showed a hint of heartache: "The entire Luo Kingdom is within the sphere of influence of the seventh-rank sect Jiu Yao Guan. Our Zhao family can take root in Weishan because of Jiu Yao Guan. Guan’s acquiescence.”
"And for a small clan."
The third elder looked a little heavy: "The most important thing is the Foundation Establishment Pill, which is the glimmer of hope for advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage.
"But only clans that have reached the first level can participate in the foundation building conference every five years. Without the foundation building pill, where are the foundation building monks? It can be said that without reaching the first level, the clan will not have the chance to develop."
Through the words of the three elders.
Zhao Yongqi could deeply feel the rigor and harshness of the ninth-grade clan system.
The Xuantian Sect, a first-grade immortal sect, is at the top.
It formulates various rules that are beneficial to itself and has super control over the "Plain of All Nations". All monks who practice here must act according to its rules if they want to further their cultivation.
The Zhao family in Weishan has a patriarch in the middle stage of foundation establishment, but survival is still so difficult.
Not to mention other loners and casual cultivators.
They can only survive by being caught in the web of the ninth-grade clan system.
Zhao Yongwen was heartless, because she was young and didn't have much empathy.
She tilted her head slightly and asked: "Third Grandpa, since only high-ranking clans can obtain the foundation-building pill, how did our Zhao family leader build the foundation?"
Let her catch the strange blind spot instead.
"Clan leader......"
The third elder rubbed Zhao Yongwen's head, but did not answer directly: "I only know that the patriarch's Foundation Establishment Pill was given by Jiuyao Guan. I really don't know the specific reason."
He smiled: "Why don't you ask the clan leader? You can also explain it to Third Grandpa."
"I do not want it."
Zhao Yongwen shook her head quickly.
In her impression, the patriarch was a very serious person, especially with a pair of extremely deep eyes that seemed to be able to see through her heart.
