Tianyun Sect, Houshan Medicine Garden
In the early morning, Qiye woke up from practice.
After a period of conscious simulation, he was already confident about refining a first-grade elixir.
Compared with other disciples who need at least a year to understand the refining techniques of first-grade elixirs, they have completely mastered it in seven nights and one week.
If this were to be known to the elders of the Alchemy Hall:
A new outer sect disciple would be shocked if he mastered the basic alchemy skills in one week that took a Dantong disciple a year.
However, although Qiye mastered the refining of first-grade elixirs, he was not proud of it, but remained humble, calm, gentle and kind.
In his view, this is just a small step towards mastering daily practical skills.
In the future, I still have a long way to go, and there are still many skills to learn.
Such a respectful attitude is also the principle of dealing with things that Qiye learned from his experience in the world:
The master hides in mediocrity.
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.
…
"It's getting late, it's time to pack up and prepare to deliver medicine to the Alchemy Hall..."
Look at the sky, Qiye muttered.
With that said, he straightened up like a carp, jumped off the bed, and started the day's work.
…
At this moment, in the sect master's palace
Shui Hanyan and the elders gathered together, with serious expressions and a depressing atmosphere.
"If this sect leader remembers correctly, this is already the tenth time this month..."
For a long time, Shui Hanyan was sitting in front of the hall, looking at the corpse under the hall with an indifferent expression, and asked in a cold voice.
I saw the corpse of a disciple wearing an outer sect robe, and his whole body was wrapped into a large cocoon by countless snow-white silver threads.
The body was shriveled and dark, as if it had been evacuated. The death was painful, skin and bones were covered with bones, it was unbearable to see, and it was horrifying to see.
"Replying to the sect leader, according to the investigation of the martial arts disciples:
During this period of time, a large number of human-faced demon spiders appeared in the mountains within a hundred miles of our Tianyun Sect.
Although these demon spiders are not of high level, they are very deadly to the outer disciples who have just started. "
"According to Wu Tang's speculation, these demon spiders should come from the branch of the Ten Thousand Demons Forest on the northern cliff. Although it is several hundred meters away from the cliff, there is no obstacle to the demon spiders who are good at flying silk leaps."
"Moreover, many newly born demon spiders have been discovered recently. I suspect that there may be a queen demon spider lurking near Tianyun Sect to hunt my Tianyun disciples for reproduction..."
Under the hall, a martial arts elder stood up and analyzed and elaborated.
"Well, elders, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
After listening to the report, Shui Hanyan nodded lightly and glanced at everyone in the hall.
"I believe that the top priority should be to set up a clean-up team as soon as possible to comprehensively clean up the nearby mountains.
And organize the strong men of the Huzong Palace to find out the Queen Mother Demon Spider lurking near our Tianyun Sect, and we must eradicate it. "
Elder Situ of Dantang saw the opportunity and said
After saying that, he looked at Shui Gongqing, the master of the Huzong Hall who was sitting opposite, with his eyes closed and concentrating, as if he was staying out of the situation.
Seeing that Situ Qingyang had something to say, Shui Hanyan looked closer and asked
"Master of the Water Palace, I wonder about this matter of cleaning up the demonic spiders. What do you think?"
In front of the hall, an old man with white hair, dressed in plain clothes and gauze robe, slowly opened his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in his bright eyes.
I saw the old man's face was moist, his face was as sharp as a knife, his breath was strong and deep, and his whole person was as steady as a needle that fixes the sea.
He slowly picked up the tea cup on the table, stroked it twice, and took a sip.
said:
"The Protector Hall is at your disposal at any time, and everything depends on the arrangement of the sect leader..."
After saying that, Shui Gongqing put down the tea cup in his hand, and the old god waited calmly.
Perhaps to other people's eyes, his actions seemed procrastinating and disrespectful to the sect leader.
But if we say that in this sect master's palace, he is the strongest in terms of cultivation.
Undoubtedly it has to be him.
Although Shuigongqing is usually silent and prefers to stay out of meetings, no one doubts his strength.
Note: The sect leader Shui Hanyan is only at the sixth level of the mid-term war spirit level.
Shui Gongqing's strength has reached the eighth level of the late War Spirit level, which is on par with Bai Dao, the lord of Baiyan City, and Dong Chuzi, the lord of Tianhai Sect.
With such strength, it is natural to hold important positions within the sect.
However, although Shui Gongqing is powerful, he is indifferent to the affairs of the sect and is obsessed with cultivation.
Even if he serves as the head of the Huzong Hall, the world is peaceful now, and there are not many things that the Huzong Hall has to deal with throughout the year.
This actually made his life very comfortable.
Therefore, the master of the Huzong Hall has become the only idle member of the Tianyun Sect.
When I have nothing to do, I practice in seclusion. When I have something to do, I hold meetings and drink tea. When I go out, I go to the mountains.
Life is so uncomfortable...
This also made the elders of other departments within the sect look down upon him, especially Dantang Situ Qingyang.
The alchemy hall he leads not only needs to train alchemy disciples, but also supplies the sect with elixirs for consumption.
If other sects have needs, they will have to open small stoves for them and refine the elixirs individually...
Every day, Situ Qingyang is busy.
have to say.
In this world, no matter what organization it is, there is such a speechless phenomenon:
I'm so busy that I'm so busy, and I'm so busy playing so hard.
…
Although Situ Qingyang couldn't stand it in his heart, the Huzong Hall's status in the sect was higher than that of the Alchemy Hall.
This also makes him have no right to interfere with the affairs of the Huzong Hall. The Huzong Hall can only carry out the orders if the sect master gives them.
It is worth mentioning:
Shui Gongqing, the master of the Huzong Hall, had tried his best to assist Shui Hanyan in assuming the position of the sect leader, despite all opinions.
It can be said that he is the "founding hero" of the clan leader.
For Shui Hanyan, how could she offend this sect elder who was kind to her.
Moreover, Shui Gongqing is far stronger than him and Dantang Qingyang.
If someone has the strength, there is nothing they can do.
This made Situ Qingyang very unhappy:
Not only is his status lower than others, but he can't be beaten, and he deserves to have to work hard for himself.
Alas, I sighed in my heart
…
“Since the Master of the Water Palace has no objection, I will give the order now.
make:
The master of the Huzong Hall led the elders of the Huzong Hall to completely encircle and suppress the hidden danger of the demon spider hiding near Tianyun Sect, and completely eliminate this scourge.
In addition, Wutang and Dantang assisted in cooperating with Huzongdian's operation.
During the siege, the Law Enforcement Hall and the Discipline Hall strictly guarded the mountain gate, and disciples were strictly prohibited from going out without permission.
If anyone disobeys the order, he will be punished according to the clan regulations.
I hope that all the palaces and halls will work together to restore Qingning to our Tianyun Sect as soon as possible..."
Shui Hanyan stood on the armrest, with an awe-inspiring temperament, and issued orders in a well-arranged manner.
Immediately issue an order
Everyone stood up and obeyed.
Immediately, arrangements for the demon spider siege began.
Wait until everyone disperses
"Master Water Palace, please stay..."
Shui Gongqing, who was walking at the end, was about to step out of the palace gate when he was stopped by Shui Hanyan.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his body hunched slightly, and he calmly turned around, his eyes that could see through the vicissitudes of the world said mistably:
"What else does the sect master have to do?"
"Nothing's wrong, I just don't know what you are busy with these days, uncle?"
Shui Hanyan walked forward slowly, just like a junior chatting with an elder, completely losing the majestic temperament he had as the sect leader just now.
Shui Hanyan naturally respected the master of the Water Palace very much.
Not only was Shui Gongqing her uncle, but he was also the strongest mainstay of the Tianyun Sect except for the elder who had been in seclusion all year round.
If it had not been for the great help of this great uncle, she would not have been able to secure the position of the sect leader with the strength of the sixth level of the mid-level war spirit.
“What else can a rotten old man do on his deathbed, just drink tea and enjoy happiness...
I just hope that you, girl, will not find trivial things for the old man to do, so that your uncle can live in peace for the rest of his life. "
Shui Gongqing beat his old waist and said weakly.
As a powerful person from the older generation of the sect, Shui Gongqing is 180 years old. Although he is similar in strength to Bai Dao and Dong Chuzi, he is much older than them, and his appearance is naturally more aged.
"Master uncle, look, Han Yan can't do anything about this. Elder Situ of Dantang is also an important minister of our Tianyun Sect who has worked hard and made great achievements.
He will inevitably feel dissatisfied when he sees that your old man's Huzong Palace is peaceful and quiet all year round.
If you two are at odds, it will do a lot of harm to our Tianyun Sect but nothing good.
Therefore, this time, I asked my uncle to put the overall situation first and take charge of the encirclement and suppression plan. Han Yan would like to thank you..."
Shui Hanyan bowed slightly and saluted.
As the head of a sect, he is also a junior.
She naturally knows how to use gentle methods to mediate the conflicts among the elders of various departments within the sect.
"That's all...it wasn't entirely because your master was optimistic about you that he helped you take the position of sect leader.
It's also because you, this girl, have the ability to take care of the sect's affairs, making me, old man, happy and at ease.
Since that old boy Situ is not used to it, then your uncle and I will move around and show him my hands. "
After saying that, Shui Gongqing smiled and patted Shui Hanyanxiang's shoulder gently.
Suddenly he felt excited, his body straightened up slightly, his hunched temperament was no longer there, and he looked like a veteran on the battlefield who still had great ambitions.
"By the way...there's one more thing that I don't know if my uncle knows.
Some time ago, there was a serious leakage of spiritual energy in my sect's spirit gathering array, but subsequent inspections found no problems.
Han Yan feels that this matter is very strange. I wonder what the uncle thinks? "
Shui Hanyan had a flash of inspiration, remembering what happened in the spirit gathering array before, and was very puzzled.
"Well, I heard... Since our Tianyun Sect was founded more than a thousand years ago, it is possible that some internal collapse of the spiritual formation has begun to occur. If we come down and repair it, it should not be a serious problem."
Shui Gongqing stroked his white beard, which was not too long, and judged.
"Calculating the time, it seems that it is less than half a year before the Newcomer Seed Competition of the Five Alliances. Are any of the new disciples of this class attractive?"
Shui Gongqing looked at the sky outside and asked silently.
“This class of disciples has acceptable qualifications, but there is nothing outstanding about them.
However, among the ordinary disciples, there is one who has a first-grade earth spirit root.
But you also know that disciples with outstanding talents either enter the superior sects, or enter the Tianwu Sect and Tianhai Sect.
Earth Spirit Root is really nothing among these sects.
In every newcomer seed competition, our Tianyun Sect is at the bottom, and it is difficult to compete with other sects. "
Shui Hanyan sighed quietly, his expression gloomy.
Although Tianyun Sect is also one of the three sects in Baiyan City, there is still a big gap between it and the other two sects.
This also led to the recruitment of disciples whose talent and potential were not top-notch.
"Sigh, I don't know how long I can support the sect with my old bones. I don't know if I can see the day when the disciples of Tianyun Sect win the championship..."
There was a trace of sadness and loss in Shui Gongqing's dim eyes, and then he left with his hands behind his hands.
Shui Hanyan stood quietly in front of the palace door, looking at the old back of his uncle, silent.
What needs to be mentioned is:
The Newcomer Seed Battle is a martial arts competition between new disciples who have been in the sect for 2 to 5 years and is jointly organized by all the sects in the city alliance formed by the five third-class noble cities adjacent to Baiyan City in the Beiya Empire.
A martial arts competition aimed at strengthening exchanges between new disciples and testing the sect's ability to cultivate their heritage.
Although only new disciples will participate in the newcomer seed battle.
However, after all, it is a matter related to the sect's face, and all the powerful sects in the Five Alliances attach great importance to it.
The five alliances include:
Baiyan City, Xixiang City, Anle City, Ninggu City, Jingjiang City.
The total number of powerful sects in the five cities is about 19, with thousands of people participating in each event.
It can be regarded as a grand competition in this area, and it is more lively than the three-sect competition in Baiyan City.
It is Baiyan City's turn to host this competition. As the host, it is natural for the newcomer seed competition to be held smoothly and to eliminate all hidden dangers within its jurisdiction.
