"Disciple Liu Yu, I have met Master Geng. I came here this time because my cultivation has reached the seventh level of Qi Refining. I am twenty-one years old this year and have met the conditions for promotion to the inner sect. I came here specifically to go through the formalities. I'm sorry to bother Master!"
Geng Yuanzhang casually took the wooden sign, glanced at the information on it with somewhat cloudy eyes, then stood up and walked to the bookshelf nearby to rummage.
After a while, he took out a thick book and leaned on the Taishi chair again to read.
"Hey, are you a disciple from another academy? You have the three spiritual roots of wood, fire and earth. You entered the outer sect at the third level of Qi refining at the age of sixteen. Well~, it took you five years to reach the seventh level of Qi refining. Such a speed of cultivation is not suitable for It’s unusual for the three spiritual roots.”
Geng Yuanzhang was more than 200 years old when he reached the late stage of foundation building. His physical body began to fail and there was no hope of condensing the golden elixir, so he took the initiative to accept this leisurely position, which could be regarded as a retirement.
He is also a monk from Yuanyang Academy. He knows very well that disciples of this type have to rely on themselves to obtain the resources for cultivation. Without family or elders to take care of them, how difficult it is to practice. Therefore, Liu Yusan's ordinary spiritual root qualifications can be obtained from him in five years. It was a bit curious to upgrade the third level of Qi Refining to the seventh level.
"This disciple is quite talented in alchemy. He has some experience in this way and can skillfully refine two or three kinds of elixirs, so there is no shortage of elixirs for practice."
Liu Yu felt a chill in her heart after hearing this. Her expression remained respectful, and she didn't dare to hesitate to answer immediately. His tone was slightly respectful, his speaking speed was neither fast nor slow, and he explained the "reason" generously.
Geng Yuanzhang nodded lightly after hearing this. Alchemy is indeed one of the most profitable techniques of cultivating immortals. If this junior is an alchemist, he really does not have to worry about the resources for cultivation. If only he had also been proficient in a kind of immortal cultivation back then. Baiyi didn't have to waste so many years and end up dying. Then he shook his head. This man just likes to think about messy things when he gets old.
At the age of twenty-one, he is at the seventh level of Qi refining and has made great achievements in alchemy. Although he has ordinary qualifications for the Three Spiritual Roots, he still has a chance of building a foundation and is fully qualified to be promoted to the inner sect. Thinking like this, Geng Yuanzhang put away the wooden sign representing the outer disciples and took out a blank jade sign from the storage bag. This kind of jade sign was made by the Yuanyang Sect using a special method, using a special magical weapon. It can distinguish authenticity from fake and prevent counterfeiting.
He raised his right hand and pointed it at the jade plaque. His index and middle fingers came together, and a two-inch-long yellow beam emerged from the fingertips. It looked a bit like a short laser blade in a science fiction movie. Liu Yu's identity information began to be engraved on it with a movement of his fingers.
The jade plaque continued to fall off piece by piece as the yellow beam of light carved it. After a while, it was completed. Geng Yuanzhang then performed several spells with his palms to enter the information, and then handed the jade plaque to Liu Yu.
"Okay, now you just put a drop of blood on this jade tablet and put your mark on it to identify its owner."
Liu Yu took the jade token with both hands, bit the tip of his tongue and squeezed out a drop of blood on the jade token.
As soon as the drop of essence and blood came into contact with the jade tablet, it slowly penetrated into it. The jade tablet suddenly gave off a faint white halo, and finally it gradually converged.
Seeing this, Geng Yuanzhang took out two sets of robes belonging to the inner disciples of the Yuanyang Sect from the room, placed them in the window, and then said solemnly:
"Master Nephew Liu, now your disciple status change has been completed. From now on, you will be the inner disciple of my Yuanyang Sect. Remember to work hard and never slack off in your practice. In the future, you will be loyal to your master and don't betray your reputation. Don't let the sect's reputation fall. !”
"Now go to the side room and change into the clothes of an inner disciple, offer a stick of incense to the ancestors of the sect and then leave."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yu immediately walked to a side room, took off his gray robe, put it into his storage bag, and put on the white robe belonging to the inner disciples.
Then I looked in the bronze mirror and saw that the person was still the same person, with an ordinary appearance. However, after putting on a white robe, he felt a little more unearthly, and seemed to have a touch of the fairy family in it.
You must know that Yuanyang Sect claims to have 20,000 disciples in the Qi Refining Period, but the outer disciples account for 80% of them, while the inner disciples only have a thousand or a few hundred, which shows the difference in status and treatment.
Liu Yu put on a white robe, and under the witness of Geng Yuanzhang, walked to the red altar table, knelt down on the futon in the middle of the floor, saluted several times to the portraits of the Yuanying Patriarchs in the door, and then picked up the A stick of incense was lit and inserted into the incense burner to complete the ceremony.
Liu Yu completed every step of this ceremony meticulously and did not dare to be careless. If something went wrong, the charge of disrespecting the ancestor was not something that ordinary disciples could bear.
"I'm sorry to bother you, Master Geng. Disciple, please leave!"
Now that he had completed his goal of being promoted to the inner sect, Liu Yu didn't want to stay for long. He saluted Geng Yuanzhang, turned around and walked out the door.
"Wait a minute, take my token and go to the Zongwu Hall and ask them to assign you a cave on Qingling Peak for your practice."
Geng Yuanzhang stopped Liu Yu and threw something that looked like a silver leaf over.
My life is approaching and I don't have much time left. When I see a pretty good junior from another hospital, I can't help but want to help him. Just like the elders who have died, this man is old. He just likes to think wildly. He waved his hand without saying anything and asked Liu Yu to leave.
Reaching out to catch the silver leaf, Liu Yu had many questions after listening to Uncle Geng's words. She didn't understand why he helped her. But when she saw Geng Yuanzhang's gesture, she opened her mouth and didn't say anything. She just bowed respectfully again. Slowly withdrew.
Liu Yu walked out of Zhengyuan Hall and met the two outer disciples again.
The two people were still guarding the gate of Zhengyuan Hall, looking at him with complex expressions, and their eyes showed envy. When Liu Yu passed by, they all called out to Senior Brother. Even if they were both highly cultivated, However, when an outer sect disciple meets an inner sect disciple, he lowers his head and calls him senior brother. This is a difference in status and a rule of the sect.
Liu Yu was in a good mood after being successfully promoted to the inner sect. Hearing what the two said, he nodded slightly with a smile on his face, and then walked towards the General Affairs Hall.
Two outer disciples from the eighth level of Qi Refining were sent to guard the gate. He couldn't guess what the reason was for Uncle Geng. Maybe he wanted to give some inspiration to the newly promoted disciples!
At this time, the sky had completely darkened, but there were still many monks coming and going. Liu Yu followed the path between the palace pavilions and soon arrived at the Zongwu Hall.
Liu Yu walked straight towards a serious-looking inner sect brother, who was none other than Brother Qian who had been arranging chores for him before. By now, the two of them had dealt with each other many times and became familiar with each other.
"Senior Brother Qian, I have just been promoted to the inner sect. Please help me arrange a cave for the inner sect disciples to practice." Liu Yu got straight to the point and explained his purpose of coming.
At the same time, he looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he took out no more than ten spiritual stones from the storage bag, put them on the table and pushed them over calmly. He didn't bother because he became an inner disciple. Swell up and don't follow the rules behind the scenes.
Of course Senior Brother Qian knew Liu Yu, and was very surprised that he had been promoted to the inner sect in just three years. However, his expression immediately softened when he heard that he was going to arrange the cave. This arrangement was a lot of money, and it was much more lucrative than arranging chores.
