Jiang Yun took the transmission note into his hand and used his spiritual sense to detect it.
"If you have something important, come quickly."
Jiang Yun heard the voice of his master. Although he was a little confused, he did not dare to delay. After increasing the power of the formation, he asked Qinghuo to guard the cave, and then turned into a ray of light and flew towards the Black Evil Peak.
Soon Jiang Yun arrived at the entrance of the master's cave. Before Jiang Yun could speak, the master's voice came to his ears to let him in.
Jiang Yun straightened his clothes and walked into the cave. After entering, he found that besides the master, the second senior sister was also there. Jiang Yun bowed to the second senior sister and master with clasped fists, and then stood quietly aside. .
Master Zhang Kuo looked solemn this time and said: "There is a big thing in the door this time. If it is done well, there will be a big reward in the door. If it is not done well, there will be punishment. This is a matter that requires hard work. I will first talk to you You will introduce it clearly, and then you will answer whether I decide to participate."
Jiang Yun and Si Wanxue couldn't help but look serious.
"Do you know which sect is the strongest in our country?" the master said slowly.
Jiang Yun and Si Wanxue looked at each other and said softly: "Yueyue Sect."
The master snorted coldly and said: "Although I don't like those guys who practice dual cultivation techniques, it is true. There are nearly 30 monks in the Pill Formation stage in the Hidden Moon Sect, and there are two Nascent Soul stage old monsters. One of them The name is still the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and it is indeed better than our Spirit Beast Mountain."
"It can be said that the Hidden Moon Sect and our Pill-forming monks from Spirit Beast Mountain together account for nearly 50% of the total number in the Xu Kingdom. The other five sects are far from being able to compare with us. Do you know the reason?"
Jiang Yun and Si Wanxue each shook their heads. The master didn't show off and continued talking.
"Occupying the best spiritual veins in Xu country is one thing, but the most important answer is inheritance."
"Our Spirit Beast Mountain and Hidden Moon Sect are the only two sects among the seven sects in the Xu Kingdom that have a complete inheritance. From the Qi training stage to the Nascent Soul stage, we have a complete set of cultivation inheritance, as well as many powerful secret techniques, and the cultivation of many high-level monks. There are many insights on promotion, including those on promotion to the Nascent Soul stage, so for thousands of years we have never stopped having Nascent Soul stage monks in Spirit Beast Mountain."
"The other five sects are just a hodgepodge. They practice a mess of exercises, including righteous exercises, demonic exercises, and evil methods, but none of them are proficient in them. It is estimated that there are less than ten sets of exercises that can fully cultivate the late stage of Dao Jiedan. Not to mention those who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, the cultivation insights of our ancestors are even rarer, and we can only rely on the monks themselves to explore."
"Therefore, very few of the five sects can cultivate to the Core Formation stage. If you want to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, you can only rely on luck. Once the old monsters in the Nascent Soul stage are cut off, the sect will be divided up immediately."
When he said this, the master looked slightly proud, and his tone was very disdainful towards the other five sects.
"We, the Spirit Beast Mountain and the Hidden Moon Sect, have been among the top sects for thousands of years since they were founded in the Xu Kingdom. However, other sects have been rising and falling. You must know that those sects were not on equal footing with us thousands of years ago."
"It's just that hundreds of years ago, the five sects each had a Nascent Soul monk, and they joined forces with our two sects to uproot the forces of the demonic and righteous ways in the Xu country. Only then did our seven sects become nominally equal."
"As for why our Spirit Beast Mountain and Hidden Moon Sect have complete inheritances, that's because we are branches of two powerful sects. We just established our own sect after the battle hundreds of years ago. I won't go into details about who we are as teachers."
Jiang Yun and Second Senior Sister were in disbelief when they heard this.
"The cause of this incident is a spiritual stone mine. Do you know about the Sanyang Mountain Spirit Mine?" the master asked.
The second senior sister seemed to have heard of this spiritual mine and replied: "Master, I know this. The Sanyang Mountain Spirit Mine is the only large-scale spiritual mine in our Xu Kingdom. It is located at the junction of the spheres of influence of the Hidden Moon Sect and the Spiritual Beast Mountain. Mining is managed jointly by both factions.”
Jiang Yun was also shocked when he heard this, because he didn't know that there was a large-scale spiritual stone mine in Xu country. In fact, their Jiang family also had a small spiritual stone mine, which could mine six to seven hundred spiritual stones every year, but they were all low-grade spiritual stones. ,
If it is a medium-sized spiritual stone mine, in addition to low-grade spiritual stones, very few medium-grade spiritual stones will be mined.
But if it is a large-scale spiritual mine, in addition to a huge number of low-grade spiritual stones, there are also many medium-grade spiritual stones. It is even said that there is a very low probability of mining high-grade spiritual stones.
You must know that high-grade spiritual stones have many uses and are extremely precious. Many powerful formations require high-grade spiritual stones to be activated.
After hearing Senior Sister Si's words, the master nodded and continued: "That spiritual mine was discovered more than four hundred years ago. Previously, this spiritual mine had been protected by a certain natural formation and therefore had not been discovered. That time was also a chance. It was discovered by coincidence, and it caused a huge sensation at the time.”
"The Hidden Moon Sect is located in the middle of Xu Kingdom, near the capital. And our Spirit Beast Mountain is located in the south of Xu Kingdom, and this spiritual mine is at the junction of our two sects."
"When this spiritual mine was discovered, our two factions fought fiercely for many years. A total of five elders at the core formation stage died on both sides. You must know that the weakest of the seven factions, Huadaowu, only has five monks at the core formation stage. That’s all.”
Even the Nascent Soul stage old monsters from the two factions fought more than once, and we were defeated. In the end, the sect even invited the eighth-level golden-armored cloud dragon from the Valley of Beasts to help us to be on par with the Hidden Moon Sect. "
"Later, the other five factions saw that our two factions had suffered a lot of losses, and they were eager to get a piece of the pie."
"Our two factions understand that if we continue to fight like this, others may benefit from it, but we are not willing to give up the benefits."
"Therefore, the two Yuan Ying-stage ancestors reached an agreement after discussion. The two factions will each receive 30% of the income from this spiritual mine."
At this point, the master looked at the two of them deeply, paused for a while, and then continued:
"As for the remaining 40% of the income, it will be determined by the battle between the monks in the foundation building period on both sides.
"A battle of skills takes place every 50 years to determine the distribution of the spiritual mines in the next 50 years. Each faction will send eight people to fight in pairs. The winning sect will receive 5% of the profits from the spiritual mines."
"With this 5% share, the annual income will not be less than a thousand spiritual stones. In fifty years, it will be 50,000 spiritual stones. In other words, if you lose a game, you will lose 50,000 spiritual stones."
"Even for us monks in the alchemy stage, this is a very huge number. You must know that the most common magic weapon is only worth 10,000 spiritual stones."
"In that competition 50 years ago, your senior brother also participated. Unfortunately, he lost. This is also his biggest regret. This is the reason why he failed to form the elixir three years ago."
The master couldn't help but sigh when he said this. It took a while before he continued to speak.
"The competition was held by the two factions in turns. The last time it was held at our Spiritual Beast Mountain, we lost five of the eight games. Two disciples died, four were seriously injured, and the remaining two were slightly injured. The disciples all worked hard, But we still lose more than we win.”
"The only restriction in the competition is that you cannot use spirit beasts above level five and talismans above the level of pill formation. You can use them even if they are Tianleizi. If you have the ability to buy a dozen Tianlei Zi and throw them over, no one will care about you. .”
"This time it's our turn to go to the Hidden Moon Sect. There are only two recommended places for teachers. The final candidates will be decided by our Supreme Elders from Spirit Beast Mountain. You should consider whether you want to participate."
The second senior sister asked doubtfully: "Master, although I have just reached the late stage of foundation building, and the fifth junior brother has also reached the middle stage of foundation building. But they are still far behind the senior brother. Why not let the senior brother participate again?"
The master explained: "Why don't you, senior brother, not want to participate, but in order to reduce losses, the two factions stipulate that the participants must be under 50 years old and have a cultivation level below the pill formation stage before they can participate.
Qingxue, I remember you just turned 49 this year. You are lucky. "
"Master!" When her age was mentioned, the normally heroic Second Senior Sister suddenly shouted in shame and anger, and glared at Jiang Yun with a look that would make you forget about her immediately.
Jiang Yun saw this and looked at the green plants next to him, looking interested in them.
The master coughed and continued: "In addition, if you win, the sect will not hesitate to reward you. Secret methods, spiritual beasts, elixirs, magic weapons, etc. can be opened to the lion of the sect. In addition, the winner can directly obtain the status of a true disciple."
"Okay, I'll give you a moment to consider whether to sign up." After saying this, the master sat down on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.
After looking at each other with the second senior sister, Jiang Yun began to think about it.
True disciples are different from disciples of a certain peak. True disciples are trained by the sect and provided with training resources.
Some secret techniques, precious magic weapons, and rare spiritual beasts will have access to them. As for talismans, for true disciples, they are just basic necessities.
If a true disciple emerges from a certain peak, it will be very embarrassing to the peak master.
The second senior sister gave up directly and said that even her senior brother had lost back then, and she couldn't win.
Jiang Yun knew how tragic it was from his master's description.
To be honest, he has no shortage of magical weapons, spiritual beasts, and spiritual stones, so there is really no need to lie in troubled waters this time. If one's fortune is wiped out in life or death, it will really be an advantage to others.
Just when Jiang Yun decided not to participate, a transmission note flew into the cave.
The master took the transmission note into his hand, and then looked straight at Jiang Yun. Jiang Yun's heart tightened when he saw this.
The master looked strange and said, "Xiao Wu, you don't have to think about the transmission talisman sent by the head brother. Master Hao, the supreme elder, asked you to go."
Jiang Yun really didn't know how to express his current mood, but he knew that there was no need to discuss the matter.
By the way, shouldn't the Supreme Elder's status be concerned with the rise and fall of the sect? I wonder what I, a monk in the foundation building stage, am doing!
But since he had to go, there was no need to look unhappy, so he said righteously.
"Jiang Yun, as a disciple of Spirit Beast Mountain, is willing to fight for Spirit Beast Mountain. Even if the disciple's cultivation is low and his magical weapons are insufficient, I will not be afraid if I cannot defeat the brothers and sisters of Hidden Moon Sect!" He said with an awe-inspiring attitude.
The master and the second senior sister looked at him with strange expressions. Then the second senior sister bid farewell to the master, and the master waved her hand and let her leave.
The master glanced at Jiang Yun helplessly, took out two spiritual fruits from the storage bag and handed them to Jiang Yun, and said: "Take them, I don't have many good things for you as a master, that's all. In this competition, you Wish yourself the best of luck and report to the boss in two months."
Jiang Yun was overjoyed when he saw the Lingguo, took it respectfully, promised that he would do his best this time, and then said goodbye and left.
The master looked at Jiang Yun's leaving back and thought to himself: "I thought this boy was just cruel, dark-hearted, and understanding of the world, but I didn't expect him to be so thick-skinned."
