After running for a few more days, the cultivation level has completely stabilized.
Tian Buhui stood up and prepared to go to the mountain peak where the outer gate was located.
The decline of Linghua Sect's power does not have high requirements for disciples. As long as the cultivation level reaches the fourth level of Qi Refining, one can apply to become an outer sect disciple.
Other treatment was pretty good, but Tian Buhui mainly wanted the outer disciples to have their own cave.
There is no need to live in the stone house of a handyman disciple, and there is room to put a lot of equipment that I like.
Tian Buhui walked alone on the mountain road outside the Zaiyong Valley.
He had already found out the route to the outer gate. It was dozens of miles away from the Zaoyi Valley and close to the main peak of the sect.
There are dozens of peaks on both sides of the road. When the sect was strong, they were full of immortal cultivators, but now there are still thousands of them.
However, the number of people is far less than what it was at its peak, and only a few peaks with positions have larger numbers.
The rest are rarely inhabited, and some are even empty.
If other practitioners saw the scene along the way, they might lament that the thousand-year-old sect has fallen into such a decline.
Tian Buhui didn't take it seriously. He just felt that the beautiful scenery and fresh air here might become an internet celebrity check-in attraction in the original world.
With his cultivation level within him, dozens of miles of mountain roads pass quietly.
When I arrived at the outer gate station, I saw figures in blue robes walking on the mountain road from a distance.
Occasionally, as if Wada had no regrets, some handyman disciples wearing gray robes appeared here, but they kept walking as if they were busy with important matters.
He was the only one who seemed a bit out of place here, looking around like a curious baby.
The courtyards here are scattered and the scenery is unique, and the pavilions and pavilions are elegant and generous. It is completely different from the Zaoji Valley. They are all simple stone houses, just like a refugee camp.
"This place has the flavor of the world of immortality." Tian Buhui sighed in his heart.
"Hey, what do you do? Why are you wandering around here?" As soon as he approached a courtyard, someone yelled.
Looking for the voice, he saw a young man wearing the gray robe of a handyman disciple like him, looking at him impatiently.
"Junior brother, I've invited you. I'm here to apply for the qualifications of an outer disciple."
Tian Buhui used the Qi Observation Technique to sweep over the young man. His cultivation level was only at the second level of Qi Refining. He was also a handyman disciple, so it was natural for him to be called a junior brother.
If this person is here, he should be on duty.
"Application to enter the outer gate?"
The young man looked surprised and looked at him without hesitation.
Suddenly, his pupils shrank: "Fourth level of Qi refining!"
He hurriedly saluted and said with a smile: "I don't know if it's our senior brother who is here. I hope you won't be offended by my rudeness just now."
Du Yong's cultivation level is not very high among the handyman disciples. The reason why he can earn points by doing duty tasks at the outer sect station is all because there are children in the clan who are outer sect disciples.
Normally, he treats his handyman disciples as if he is superior to others.
However, compared with the real outer disciples, their status is vastly different.
Although Tian Buhui is not yet an outer disciple, his cultivation at the fourth level of Qi Refining has already met the sect's requirements. He only needs to apply, and becoming an outer disciple is a matter of course.
"Senior brother, it seems like it's your first time coming to the outer sect. How about I show you the way?"
Du Yong cursed in his heart, how could he be so unlucky today, almost offending an outer disciple, but on the surface he spoke attentively.
"Then it's Junior Brother Lao."
Tian Buhui just knew that he wanted to come here, but he didn't know who he needed to apply for. It would be better to have someone to guide him so he wouldn't have to ask around.
"I don't dare, senior brother, please come with me."
Du Yong led the way, and the two of them walked into the courtyard one after the other.
When he met the outer disciples in blue robes, Du Yong would stop and salute, while the disciples in gray robes would bow to him.
"This person still has some power here." Tian Buhui muttered in his heart.
As the two of them walked around, Du Yong said, "Little brother Du Yong, I haven't asked my teacher for his name yet."
"Junior brother, please don't be polite. My name is Tian Buhui. I want to thank you so much this time, junior brother."
He doesn't have the local habit of treating others based on their level of cultivation. He talks freely in situations and seems unusually friendly compared to others.
"It turns out to be Senior Brother Tian. I stay at the Outer Gate all year round. If you have anything to do in the future, Senior Brother, just give me your orders."
"Haha, junior brother, you are welcome. I will never trouble junior brother if I have anything to do in the future."
The two chatted happily, and while talking, they had already arrived in front of a large hall.
Du Yong took two quick steps, came to the guard in front of the palace, and whispered a few words softly.
The guard glanced at Tian Buhui, turned around and walked into the main hall.
Du Yong returned to him and said, "Senior Brother Tian, this is the main hall of the Outer Sect Steward. Just wait until Senior Brother goes to see Steward Zhao."
"Thank you, junior brother. I wonder what Manager Zhao is like." Tian Buhui asked softly.
Du Yong looked around and whispered: "Guan Zhao is quite a kind man, but there are some..."
As he spoke, he made a rubbing motion with his fingers.
"clear!"
The two of them smiled knowingly.
Not long after, the guard walked out of the temple.
Tian Buhui and Du Yong said goodbye and followed the guards into the hall.
The hall is luxuriously decorated, just like the home of a mortal emperor.
Although Linghua Sect has declined, the remnants of the past are not comparable to those of small sects.
There is a huge book table placed in the hall, and an old man in blue robe is sitting leisurely behind it.
"Manager Zhao, we've brought him here." The guard bowed.
The old man waved his hand to let the guard leave and looked up at Shimoda Bugui.
Tian Buhui quickly saluted and said, "I've met Manager Zhao."
"Junior brother, there is no need to be polite. Are you here to apply for promotion to the outer sect?" Manager Zhao's tone was neither salty nor cool.
He was nearly seventy years old and had no hope of being promoted to the sixth level of Qi Refining, so he asked the sect for a position as an outer sect manager.
In charge of the promotion of outer disciples, responsible for arranging residence and distributing some sect resources.
Things are leisurely, but the power is great. It is a benefit given by the sect to the older disciples, and by the way, he can retire here.
"Disciple is indeed here for this matter." Tian Buhui replied.
"Oh, let me see if there are any caves that are not in use." Manager Zhao pretended to pick up a brochure and check it out.
Tian Buhui cursed in his heart, Linghua Gate was almost empty, how could he not have a place to live.
Although the sect stipulates that those at the fourth level of Qi refining can be promoted to the outer sect, but the specific arrangements are in the hands of these stewards.
Cultivation pays attention to the land of the wealthy couple, where the land is the place for practice. Sufficient spiritual energy or lack of spiritual energy directly affects the speed of practice.
Tian Buhui understands the truth. There is no need to make yourself uncomfortable just to save a little money.
He quietly walked a few steps to the table, took out ten low-grade spiritual stones, and placed them on the table calmly.
"Junior brother's spiritual power is not good. I hope Manager Zhao will take care of me and arrange a cave with sufficient spiritual energy for me."
Seeing how generous he was, Manager Zhao smiled and put the spirit stone into the storage bag with a wave of his hand.
"Junior brother, you are welcome. The sect has always focused on cultivating talents. Talents like junior brother deserve to have a good cave."
He stopped reading the booklet and reached out to tap the storage bag on his waist, and a picture scroll appeared in front of the two of them.
The entire mountain peaks of Linghua Gate are clearly painted on it, and the locations of large and small caves are also marked.
Manager Zhao pointed to a location in the scroll and said, "Junior brother, please look, this is the best cave in the outer gate..."
