Those who can enter the main hall are not ordinary people.

Even if his cultivation level is not that high, he still has a certain status in the sect.

Of course, Zhuge Mingzhu is an anomaly.

The rest of those who came with their juniors had the lowest level of cultivation in the late stage of divine transformation. She was the only one who had not even reached the realm of divine transformation, and was only a Nascent Soul Dzogchen.

Although Fang Haoran looks like a very old man, he is a monk who has returned to the Great Perfection, and his memory is very good. Except for the juniors, he does not know everyone else.

I know him, and he looks very familiar.

It's just that for some people, he doesn't know exactly what kind of positions they hold now, and he only knows after asking.

Everyone who came to celebrate his birthday brought his juniors to him individually. He also asked each junior's name, and each junior received a gift from him.

They are all magic weapon level.

When a leader gives a gift to a junior, it would seem too shabby if the gift was some spiritual weapon.

He does not lack these things.

When it was Zhuge Mingzhu's turn to bring Ning Shaoyang over to pay his birthday, Fang Haoran first chatted with Zhuge Mingzhu for a few words, then glanced at Ning Shaoyang and said:

"The apprentice you chose is good. Although his qualifications are not very good, he seems to be a down-to-earth practitioner. With you as a master to train him seriously, he will definitely have a good future in the future."

He took out a seven-inch-high pagoda and said to Ning Shaoyang:

"This pagoda is called the Brahma Pagoda. It was a gift from Dragon Slaying Island in Nanyang when I celebrated my 30,000th birthday. I found it when I was doing inventory a few days ago and it is just for you. When your cultivation level is higher, you can

Bring it to use. This magic weapon is both offensive and defensive, and it can be of great use until you enter the realm of divine transformation."

Ning Shaoyang quickly thanked him.

There are more than two hundred people in the main hall now, including more than a hundred juniors.

After talking to those people and distributing gifts to all the juniors, Fang Haoran left the main hall and went outside the hall gate.

Outside the palace gate, there are thousands of disciples who came to celebrate his birthday. They are the backbone of the sect.

They all brought gifts to celebrate their birthdays, and they wanted to meet the birthday boy no matter what.

Even though Fang Haoran is the head of the Taihao Sect, he still needs to follow this etiquette.

He left the main hall, and when the disciples outside saw their leader coming out, they all knelt down to congratulate him on his birthday.

"Everyone, get up."

After asking the disciples to get up, Fang Haoran said:

"This time I'm celebrating the birthday of a bad old man like me. I dragged you all here and delayed your cultivation time. I'm very sorry."

"I know many of you here. I found that many people's cultivation realm has been greatly improved. I am very happy."

"Your growth represents the growth of Tahoemen. Seeing your growth is the happiest thing for me. It is much happier than celebrating my birthday."

"..."

Cultivators don't have much discipline at all. They are immersed in their own cultivation most of the time. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for so many people to gather together.

It is rare to have such an opportunity, so Fang Haoran must of course show his status as the leader, encourage everyone, and let everyone understand that he is the leader of this sect and the talker of this sect.

After he began to speak, those in the main hall began their social activities behind him.

Ning Shaoyang discovered that Zhuge Mingzhu and Xu Changkong, the elder who taught the Dharma, did not deal with them either. They were still as if they had not seen this person.

However, what gave him some peace of mind was that Zhuge Mingzhu and his disciple Qiu Yong seemed to have a good relationship, at least they could talk to each other.

The head disciple is the future leader of the sect.

When the leader dies or abdicates, the next person to take over the post is the disciple of the original leader, which is like the crown prince of the country.

Although the master's disciples are selected from among the master's disciples, who will be the master's disciple is not decided by the master himself. It must be decided by the elders of the sect.

This is related to the inheritance of a sect, so we must be cautious and cannot rely on the personal likes and dislikes of the leader.

Fang Haoran lived a long life, and during his tenure as the leader, he had already killed two of his disciples.

Qiu Yong was his third disciple during his tenure as head master.

However, Qiu Yong has only been in the world for a few thousand years, and he is already in the late stage of returning to the void. He already has a lifespan of 30,000 years, so there is no need to worry about being killed by Fang Haoran.

This head disciple also gave Ning Shaoyang a magic weapon as a gift, which looked like a golden bracelet.

He smiled and said to Ning Shaoyang:

"This magic weapon is called the Vajra Demon Subduing Bracelet. It is a Buddhist treasure. It can be worn on the body for protection and released to bind enemies. It has many wonderful benefits. Although you can't use it now, you can wear it on your hand.

Yes, it’s also a gadget.”

Before Ning Shaoyang could say thanks, Zhuge Mingzhu said:

"Senior Brother Qiu, this is a top-quality magic weapon. It's too valuable. You'd better take it back and replace it with another one."

Qiu Yong said with a smile: "Junior sister, you are serious. It's just a magic weapon, nothing valuable. This is the first time that you, a master disciple, and I have met, so we can't be too prevaricated."

Zhuge Mingzhu couldn't push him away, so he said to Ning Shaoyang: "Why don't you thank Uncle Qiu quickly?"

The best magic weapon is the best type of magic weapon.

Knowing that the gift given to him by the head disciple turned out to be a top-quality magic weapon, Ning Shaoyang was surprised and happy, and quickly thanked him:

"Thank you, Master Qiu."

It was indeed a surprise to be able to receive the best magic weapon as a gift. But what shocked him even more was that Zhuge Mingzhu actually called this head disciple as senior brother, and the other party called him junior sister in return.

These seniors cannot be called brothers and sisters casually, not to mention that they must be taught by the same master, they must also be people of the same generation - at least, they must look like they are of the same generation.

Qiu Yong is the head disciple in the late stage of returning to the void, while Zhuge Mingzhu is just a Nascent Soul Dzogchen monk. There is a huge difference in status between the two.

It's a little strange that these two people are so compatible.

This also shows that the relationship between the two people is extraordinary.

Zhuge Mingzhu doesn't seem like a person who likes to climb high branches. He asked Ning Shaoyang to call Qiu Yong "Uncle", which shows that she also approves of the relationship between the two.

Qiu Yong didn't bring his junior here this time, so Zhuge Mingzhu didn't have to return the gift, but he made a net profit from him.

However, both of them are people who can get on the big stage and will not care about this like Ning Shaoyang.

Qiu Yong sat on the chair next to Zhuge Mingzhu and asked her:

"I see that you, junior sister, have made great progress in your martial arts and are just around the corner to reach the realm of divine transformation. When are you going to go to this realm in Chongqing?"

Zhuge Mingzhu smiled and shook his head and said:

"It's still too early now. It will probably take another thirty to fifty years."

"There's no need to wait so long, right?" Qiu Yong said, "You have spent enough time polishing the realm of Nascent Soul."

"I still feel unsure," Zhuge Mingzhu said. "In my current state, if I try to hit that realm, I'm more likely to fail, so I decided to wait a little longer."

Qiu Yong shook his head, seemingly disapproving of it.

Such a conversation made Ning Shaoyang feel happy - her master was not far from the realm of divine transformation, which meant that she could take a further step forward and possess greater abilities.
