What are the talisman seeds of the ‘Shou Lu Method’?
When Zhang Ke was in the Dingzhou sect, he deduced a system of practice through belief and aspiration, which was called the "Nine-Rank Dharma Protector".
This system is divided into nine levels, including one person for the first level, two people for the second level, and four people for the third level.
There are twelve people in the fourth grade, thirty-six people in the fifth grade, and seventy-two people in the sixth grade.
There are one hundred and eight people in the seventh grade, 365 people in the eighth grade, and three thousand people in the ninth grade.
This is a unique Shinto practice method that can establish a complete system of ninth-level protectors from top to bottom, and can add up to 3,600 Shinto monks to the sect.
Although these Shinto monks are subject to many restrictions, such as being unable to leave the place where they were granted a title, being unable to deviate from their assigned priesthood, being much weaker than practitioners, etc.
But it is undeniable that this Shinto practice system has brought a huge impact to the practice world.
The original 'Xiantian Yiqi Sect' was a seventh-grade sect, and the total number of practitioners in the entire sect was only two thousand practitioners.
The most critical thing is that this practice system can bypass the "Yuan Qi Method" practice threshold for practice.
Which sect's disciples don't have some relatives and friends who are unable to practice? This method opens a door of convenience for these people.
At the auction that year, a talisman seed of the 'Shou Lu Method' from the 'Xiantian Yiqi Sect' was auctioned for the price of an acquired spiritual treasure.
At the time, it seemed that the 'Xiantian Yiqi Sect' had made a huge profit, after all, 616 talisman seeds were auctioned.
But in fact, this transaction was a blood loss.
Of this huge profit, 60% was taken away by the 'Daode Sect' and the 'Bajing Palace', while the 'Xiantian Yiqi Sect' only received the remaining 40% of the profit.
After hundreds of years of development, the 616 sects that purchased the talisman seeds of the 'Shou Lu Method' had rapidly increased in strength with the addition of 3,600 Dharma Protectors.
Especially for many low-level sects, the establishment of the protector god system has brought about earth-shaking changes in the sects.
These Shinto monks not only abide by the sect's rules and obey the sect's instructions more than the sect disciples, but because Shinto practice is inseparable from contact with the local people, it greatly enhances the local people's sense of identification with the sect.
In addition, because these Shinto monks guard the sect, most of the sect disciples can be freed from tedious chores and can practice better.
This increase and decrease will have a huge impact on the sect.
Nowadays, among these sects with a system of guardian gods, most of the sects' guardian gods have advanced to the Golden Core Realm, and some sects have even had guardian gods at the Yuanshen Realm.
Whenever we talk about the ninth-level Dharma Protector God system, those sects that missed out on the seeds of the talisman of the ‘Shou Lu Dharma’ always have a heart-breaking feeling.
An acquired spiritual treasure is nothing. The benefits and influence brought by 3,600 Shinto monks have already exceeded the value of an acquired spiritual treasure a thousand times.
But Zhang Ke announced after the auction that he would not refine the seeds of the ‘Shou Lu Method’ talisman for five hundred years.
Later, although Zhang Ke's originally limited time had passed, he had become the head of the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect' with such a fierce reputation, who would dare to ask him to refine the talisman seeds again.
This time, Zhang Ke ordered Xu Qingzhi to spread the news that he was going to re-refine the 'Shou Lun Method' talisman seeds, which immediately caused a huge sensation in the cultivation world.
Numerous large and small sects in the five major regions of the Azure Realm secretly sent their personnel to Penglai Island in the South China Sea of the Eastern Region to find out whether the news was true or false.
If you look down from a high altitude, you can see dense crowds of practitioners heading toward Penglai Island from all over the world.
Even the sixty top-ranking sects in the five regions were alarmed and sent their disciples to inquire about the cause.
...
In the Lingxiao Palace.
Zhang Ke is on top of the throne.
At the bottom of the steps sat nearly a hundred True Lords of Yuanshen and nearly a thousand True Lords of Golden Core.
These are not all the middle and high-level people in the sect, at least half of them are out there presiding over other affairs of the sect.
Today's meeting was initiated by Zhang Ke himself. Its purpose was not only to discuss the sect's next development strategy, but also to explain to others in the sect why they refined the seeds of the 'Shou Lu Method' talisman.
First, each leader and leader will detail the work of their respective responsibilities, including achievements, existing problems, and next-step development plans.
Then Xu Qingzhi made a unified summary.
This part contains more content. In addition to the development within the sect, there are also some important changes that have occurred in the practice world.
After this narration, four days have passed.
Fortunately, everyone here is an accomplished practitioner, and no one appears tired or tired.
After Xu Qingzhi finished speaking, Zhang Ke nodded with satisfaction, looked at the people in the hall and said in a solemn voice:
"My fellow sects, because this retreat lasted a long time, and our sect, including our own world, has undergone many changes, I asked the deputy head of Wushuang to organize this meeting.
Firstly, to understand the development of our department, and secondly, to brainstorm solutions to existing problems in development.
Our sect now has more than 160 Yuanshen True Lords, more than 20,000 Golden Core Realm disciples, and even more than 2 million Xiantian Realm disciples.
This includes more than 30,000 true disciples.
Now, even if our sect is compared with the general high-grade sects, it is only a few Taoist masters away.
The reason why our sect has been able to develop so rapidly and become so strong is inseparable from the hard work of everyone here.
Here, I encourage you all!”
Zhang Ke said, clasping his hands and saluting the sect disciples at the bottom of the steps.
Nearly a thousand disciples in the audience raised their hands and saluted at the same time:
"Since you are a disciple, you should do your best!"
After Zhang Ke greeted everyone with a smile, he continued:
"I gained a lot from this retreat. I have derived a set of 'Alchemy Tao' practice system, and its basic knowledge should be incorporated into the daily homework of Taoist disciples."
The hearts of Lord Shiraishi and others were moved.
‘It’s a big reward to be able to let the master speak for himself. It seems that this newly derived ‘Alchemy Dao’ system is no small matter!’
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhang Ke then said:
"I heard from the deputy head of Wushuang that our sect has been able to refine a super large 'empty boat'. This is a very remarkable achievement.
I wonder who was responsible for successfully refining this boat?"
Lord Baishi, who was sitting upright, raised his hand to Zhang Ke.
"The super large 'King Xing Zhou' was made by Ban Ling and the weapon refiners from the Dizi Department of the 'Magical Weapon Department'."
The 'Magical Weapon Department' is the sect's department that specializes in refining weapons. It is divided into eight departments, ordered by the eight characters of 'Heaven, Earth, Xuanhuang, Universe, Primordial', and is managed by Shiraishi Shinlord.
The weapon refiners in each department focus on different directions, and there are many categories subdivided under each department.
Among them, the 'Dizi Department' is responsible for refining flying magic weapons, and the class leader who originally refined the 'One-Chi Pan' is the director.
The refining direction of the 'Huangzi Department' is the 'Sound Transmission Bell', which is controlled by the master of Jinghuan, Lu Yuhuan, who refined the 'Shunfeng Er' magical weapon.
Zhang Ke praised:
“This was done extremely well.
Unparalleled!"
Xu Qingzhi responded:
"The disciple is here!"
Zhang Ke said seriously:
"This is a great achievement for the collective 'A' level of the Dizi Department of the 'Magical Weapon Department'. In addition, the personal authority level of some disciples with outstanding performance will be increased as appropriate!"
"I will obey the master's instructions!"
Upon hearing Zhang Ke's reward, many people in the hall showed envious looks.
As the ‘Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect’ became larger and larger, the management of the disciples was also restructured accordingly.
In addition to the three major categories of true inheritance, inner sect, and outer sect, a twenty-fourth level authority system has also been established.
This twenty-four-level authority system can be improved through sect contributions, but it is extremely difficult to upgrade, and each level of authority has different restrictions.
Including personal monthly routine, food, clothing, housing and transportation are all affected by this authority system.
In addition, the acquisition of resources, skills, secrets, and promotion within the sect are all inseparable from personal authority.
The monthly income of a disciple with the highest authority is more than twenty-four times that of a disciple with the lowest authority, not to mention other benefits.
There are even rumors that disciples with higher authority can redeem acquired spiritual treasures and realm-breaking treasures through personal contributions.
This system greatly increased the participation of sect disciples in sect affairs, and the disciples who proposed this system received huge rewards from the sect.
It was just to protect the disciples, and we still don’t know who actually proposed this measure.
After Zhang Ke proposed the commendation, he asked Zhenjun Baishi:
"The refining time of the super large 'empty boat' is too long and the cost is also a bit high.
Although the sect is preparing to refine thirty-six sets of 'All-Seeing Hammer Sets' to speed up the refining of this magical weapon, it will ultimately take a certain amount of time to complete.
I wonder how difficult it is to refine this magic weapon?"
Lord Shiraishi pondered for a moment and then said:
"Master, the biggest difficulty with the super large 'empty boat' is power.
Since spiritual energy gathers in the earth's veins in this world, there is no spiritual stone in the world that can contain vitality.
If you want to activate a flying magic weapon that is five miles long and three miles wide to fly in the air, you need to refine a large number of 'Spirit Gathering Arrays' in it to condense the energy of the void space of heaven and earth.
A super large 'Air Boat' needs to refine at least 30,000 'Spirit Gathering Arrays', and the vitality is changing every moment, which requires the 'Spirit Gathering Array' to form different formations to balance the vitality.
.
This is also where the most time and resources are consumed.”
Zhang Ke reached out and pinched his chin, thinking for a moment:
"Change the name of the super large 'Aircraft'. From now on it will be called the 'Floating Aircraft'. According to its shape, it can be divided into four levels of 'Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang'."
After a brief pause, Zhang Ke continued:
"Since the difficulty in refining the 'Floating Flying Boat' lies in the power, we will conduct research and development in this direction in the future.
I have now understood the secret of energy conversion. This method can convert the energy of heaven and earth into a single and stable energy, but it is still difficult to apply it to power.
Shiraishi, after the meeting, I will transfer the method of 'vital energy transformation' to the 'Magical Weapon Department', and you will be in charge of this plan."
Shiraishi's respectful voice should be.
Zhang Ke then made some plans for the next development of the sect, with the main direction being to vigorously promote the newly established practice system.
After most of the problems were solved, Zhang Kecai looked at the people in the audience and smiled:
"You must be a little curious as to why I am preparing to refine the talisman seeds of the 'Shou Lu Method' again, right?"
Zhenjun Suqin's expression moved slightly, and he glanced left and right, ready to ask.
After hearing this news in the past few days, she specially studied the 'Nine-Rank Dharma Protector God' system. After truly understanding this system, she couldn't help but be shocked by its power.
When the "Xiantian Yiqi Nanzong" was established, Zhang Ke established the "Dharma Protector God" system in Penglai and Penglai respectively.
In the most difficult early stage of development, 7,200 Shinto monks played a vital role in the development of the sect.
Currently, among the 7,200 Shinto monks in the sect, there are nearly 200 Shinto monks in the Yuanshen realm.
And this power is not counted in the number of sect practitioners.
During the years when Zhang Ke was absent from the sect, Xu Qingzhi was able to suppress one hundred and sixty Yuanshen True Lords from various factions in the sect. In addition to Zhang Ke's intimidation, these two hundred Yuanshen realm Shinto monks were also a key factor.
factor.
At this time, hearing Zhang Ke take the initiative to mention it, Suqin Zhenjun asked immediately:
"Master, our sect has developed rapidly and there is no need to refine the seeds of the talisman of the 'Shou Lun Method' to obtain resources.
With the current size of our sect, even if we establish more 'Dharma Protector' systems, it will not be able to improve our sect's strength, and it will also affect the balance of the existing Shinto system.
Although this method can quickly increase the strength of a sect, its main effect is still more influential among middle- and lower-rank sects.
In this way, the strength of low-level sects in this world will be rapidly improved. With the number of low-level sects in this world, the implementation of the 'Dharma Protector' will definitely have a huge impact on the practice world.
This will inevitably affect the dominance of the high-ranking sects over the cultivation world. If the leader does this, I am afraid that it will arouse the dissatisfaction of many high-ranking sects!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The words of Zhenjun Suqin are actually the concerns of most of the disciples in the sect.
Zhang Ke nodded slightly.
"What Junior Sister Suqin said is true, the implementation of the 'receptacle method' will indeed have a certain impact on the influence of top-grade sects on the spiritual world.
However, I am afraid that all of you have forgotten one thing."
Zhang Ke opened his eyes filled with white mist, looked around at everyone, and said in a deep voice:
"According to the speculation back then, in another fifteen hundred years, the immortal cultivators will return to this realm and compete with us for this realm.
However, 1,500 years is only the most ideal state.
Expect the enemy to be lenient. What if the immortal cultivator returns early?
With the current strength of this world, can it stop the invasion of immortal cultivators?
You know, the cultivators in this world today are all deadwood that the cultivators of the past gave up on!
Although this industry has experienced several changes, its overall strength has become much stronger.
But immortal cultivators will not rest on their laurels either. After nearly nine thousand years of development, we can no longer measure how strong the immortal cultivators are now.
Therefore, if we want to get a chance of victory in this life-and-death war, we must do everything we can to strengthen ourselves.
'Voice-transmitting bell', 'money bank', 'floating flying boat', 'integrating reefs and building islands', 'encouraging childbirth', 'developing compulsory education', 'establishing a new practice system' and 'popularizing practice items in the secular world'
etc.
All of this is preparation for the future war.
For hundreds of years, our sect has promoted the development of the spiritual practice world through a series of initiatives.
However, these changes alone are not enough.
Therefore, after thinking again and again, I decided to refine the ‘Shou Lun Method’ talisman seeds again.
There are as many sects in this world as the sands of the Ganges River. If each sect could have an additional 3,600 Shinto monks.
After hundreds of years, this power will definitely become a great help in fighting against the immortal cultivators.
And this is the main reason why I have to resist the pressure of the top-level sects to refine the seeds of the talisman of the 'Shou Lu Method'."
Zhang Ke's words had a huge impact on the hearts of many disciples in the hall.
They did not expect that Zhang Ke's intention would be hundreds of years later.
No one in the main hall raised any objections, and everyone was secretly thinking about the feasibility of this matter.
...
A few hours later.
Night falls and the moon shines brightly in the sky.
The immortal pointed inside the main hall at the top of the peak.
Xu Qingzhi stood aside quietly, quietly looking at Zhang Ke, who was standing at the edge of the hall with his hands behind his hands, looking calm and peaceful.
Immortal Finger Peak is Zhang Ke’s private territory. Its height is only below the ‘Tongtian Tower’, and only a handful of people can enter here.
There are unique formations arranged around the summit hall.
Through the dark golden light curtain at the edge of the hall, one can clearly see the entire 'Tai Chi Circle' island.
Xu Qingzhi is no longer what she used to be. Today in the Lingxiao Palace, she was keenly aware that there seemed to be some untruth in Zhang Ke's words.
However, only people like her who have a deep understanding of Zhang Ke's character can see this.
At this moment, there was no one else around. Xu Qingzhi walked to Zhang Ke and accompanied him to look at the lights of Wanjia below.
After a long time, Xu Qingzhi suddenly said:
"Master, what you said in the palace today were true?"
Zhang Ke turned his head slightly, glanced at Xu Qingzhi, and said with a smile:
"What did you see?"
Xu Qingzhi hesitated for a moment and then said:
"I always feel that the leader's action of refining the 'Shou Lu Technique' talisman seeds has a deeper meaning, but I can't figure it out for a while."
