After bowing three times and nine kowtows to the jade statue of Song Yan, the founder of the sect, the ordinary middle-aged monk wearing a seven-star robe shouted loudly: "All new disciples of the outer sect, please pay homage to the master Zhang Zhenren."
The real person here does not mean Yuan Shen, but is a convention formed in the world of cultivation over the years. Leaders of major sects are called Zhenren, regardless of whether they have reached Yuan Shen or not.
However, the leader, Zhang Zhengyan and Zhenren Zhang, are among the few Yin Shen Lords in the world of cultivation. According to the jade slip in "History of the Cultivation World", most of the Yin Shen Lords retreat to attack the soul, and three of them are still active in front of the world.
Among the Yinshen Lords are the current leader of the Penglai Sect, the current leader of the Yingzhou Sect, and the current leader of the Nether Sect.
After paying homage, the leader with his long eyebrows lowered said to the dozens of outer sect disciples kneeling below: "You are considered to have joined our Penglai sect. Later, Yongxiang, the leader of the Zhanglu Hall, will give you a lecture on the sect.
Precepts. The old Taoist said here that the lifespan of a monk in the out-of-body stage is at most two decades. If he cannot break through the entrainment stage and enter the inner door, he will leave to enjoy the luxury of the world when his body begins to decay in his eighties at the latest.
But in fact, many outer sect disciples become disheartened and leave the sect when they are sixty or seventy years old. The old Taoist said so much to tell you, don’t think that you can make a breakthrough naturally after entering the sect. It depends more on your own hard work.
"
Shi Xuan could not have imagined that the initiation ceremony for an outer disciple would be so simple. After worshiping the ancestor and the head master, it was over. Next, a tall and imposing young monk stood up to lecture on the sect's precepts. This was the famous Wu Wu.
Return the sword.
There are many rules in the sect, but generally speaking, they are not allowed to teach martial arts privately, not deceive their masters and destroy their ancestors, and not harm their fellow disciples.
After Yongxiang finished explaining the sect's precepts, the ordinary middle-aged monk wearing a seven-star robe stood up again and said calmly: "Pindao is the head of the sect's general affairs hall, and the name is Lingxing. Although your general affairs will be the main minister in the future.
It is under the jurisdiction of the general affairs elders of the outer sect, but if you have any disputes, you can come to Pindao to appeal, the general affairs hall is on the mountainside of Tianshu Peak."
All the outer disciples saluted in unison. Unexpectedly, this ordinary middle-aged monk was Taoist Lingxing, one of the six golden elixir masters of the Penglai Sect. He had cultivated a middle-grade golden elixir.
Taoist Lingxing pointed at an old monk with white hair and white eyebrows wearing a red dragon robe and said: "This is Grandmaster Meng Limeng, the leader of Tianquan Peak.
The new disciples also continued to salute, but Grandmaster Meng Limeng responded rather arrogantly.
Taoist Lingxing introduced the elders and leaders behind him one by one. The thin middle-aged Taoist was Yongxing, the leader of Yuheng Peak. Mo Yuan was the leader of Tianji Peak. A beautiful woman in a purple maid uniform was actually one of the six great leaders.
The leader of the masters is Yu Linglong. She is the leader of Tianxuan Peak and the elder who transmits the Dharma.
Kaiyang Peak and Yaoguang Peak do not have the first seat, only two elders. Among them, Kaiyang Peak is where distinguished guests are received and Dharma meetings are held. Yaoguang Peak is where the true disciples and inner disciples listen to the first seat, where the elders preach and discuss.
The place.
Then there were some inner sect elders, all of whom were in the Soul Stage.
Taoist Lingxing did not introduce the true disciples and inner disciples one by one. Therefore, Shi Xuan only recognized Xie Fangwei among the true disciples, and the others were two men and one woman. The other true disciples must have been traveling abroad.
After the initiation ceremony, Shi Xuan and others were taken back to Jiaomu Peak among the twenty-eight peaks of the Outer Sect, which is where the Outer Sect’s General Affairs Hall is located. When they came back, Shi Xuan heard Ming Qingyue talk about the Penglai Sect.
The strange thing is that the entire Penglai sect only has three halls and four floors. The three halls are the Foreign Affairs Hall, the General Affairs Hall and the Zhanglu Hall. Things like refining qi, refining elixirs, planting elixirs, mining ores, etc. are all divided into separate halls depending on whether they are for external use or internal use.
The Foreign Affairs Hall and the General Affairs Hall did not have separate hall entrances like other sects. Li Jinkui, the leader of the Foreign Affairs Hall, was in the Western Wasteland at this time and could not come back.
The four buildings are: Tianya Haijiao Tower - where the sect's precious skills and techniques are located; Ziqi Donglai Tower - the treasure house of the sect, which contains various precious magic weapons, spiritual weapons, weapon refining materials, exotic treasures, etc.;
The Great Sun Puzhao Building - where elixirs, elixirs, spiritual stones, etc. are located; the Dragon and Tiger Intersection Building - combines all the low-level things in the first three buildings, mainly for outer disciples. The first three floors are all on Tianshu Peak.
The Longhu Interchange Building is located on Jiaomu Peak.
Originally, Shi Xuan wanted to ask what the first of the four peaks meant and what rights it had. Unfortunately, Chuan Yunzhou was not slow and soon arrived at Jiaomu Peak. Shi Xuan had no choice but to follow the new disciples into the outer gate.
The main hall of the General Affairs Hall.
The elder of the outer sect general affairs is a tall, fat, bald old man, his surname is Cheng Mingping, and he is in the Soul Stage. He is standing on the stage in front of him and telling these new disciples something that the outer sect disciples should pay attention to.
"You are all monks who admire the Dao and have extraordinary qualifications. But if you join our Penglai sect, you must abide by the rules of our Penglai sect. For outer disciples, our sect will issue a bottle of Soul Condensation Pill and a low-grade spiritual stone every month.
Fifty. At the same time, new disciples can also choose a skill jade slip for free, but there are requirements. You must complete one task assigned by the sect every month. If you want more pills, the skill jade slip
, or even magic weapons, then you need to take on more sect tasks, accumulate good deeds, and redeem them yourself. The merit list is in the good deeds room on the left hand side of the General Affairs Hall."
Elder Cheng Ping paused and continued: "New disciples, I will give you a storage bag later, which contains a black outer sect robe, a bottle of Soul Condensation Pill, and fifty low-grade spiritual stones.
A jade slip of good deeds, and a green steel sword, a low-grade magical weapon. From now on, every five days, at the Taoist Listening Hall at the top of Shenshuifeng Peak, there will be a leader, elder, true disciple or inner sect disciple who will come to preach and teach the Dharma, if any
If you have questions about Taoism, you can ask them for advice at that time, so be sure to remember. Also, after you choose a cave or palace, the medicinal fields around it belong to you, and you can plant the elixirs you need."
After Elder Cheng Ping finished speaking, the deacons from the outer sect or the disciples from the outer sect who had received the task of doing good deeds were already waiting there and distributed the storage bags to Shi Xuan and the others.
Shi Xuan penetrated his spiritual thoughts, and the things inside were indeed as described by Elder Cheng Ping. Then the new disciples were brought to the Dragon and Tiger Intersection Building by the outer deacon, and each one could choose a jade slip of the martial arts.
The Dragon and Tiger Intersection Building has three floors, one floor for Kung Fu books, etc., two floors for elixirs, and three floors for magical instruments and materials. Disciples will pick up the Jade Slips on the first floor and hand them over to the deacons of this building.
Let them copy a jade slip and give it to their disciples.
The first floor is very large, with eighty outer disciples scattered inside without even the slightest feeling of being stirred up by waves. There is often only one disciple in front of a bookshelf, choosing.
Shi Xuan had thought about it before he came in. He originally wanted to learn some sword-control skills and swordsmanship. After all, his All-Seeing Shadowless Sword had to be sacrificed and refined without corresponding swordsmanship. But now the most important thing is to choose.
A wind attribute skill is needed to cover it up, at least until you learn "The True Interpretation of the Divine Wind of Heaven and Earth Liuhe". Sword control skills can only be selected after accumulating good merits.
With the decision made, Shi Xuan moved quickly. According to the categories, he found the bookshelves where the wind attribute skills, spells, sword skills, formations, etc. were located. He planned to pick a better one. Although he had
"Baolu", but stones from other mountains can attack jade. If there is a better method to compare with, the cultivation effect will be better.
"The Great Wind Technique", "Soul-eating Yin Wind Technique" and "Wind Control Technique". Shi Xuan slowly looked at the names and introductions of these jade slips. Suddenly Shi Xuan's eyes lit up and he discovered a technique called "Six Swords of Cutting the Wind".
"Zhen Jue", the name seems to be swordsmanship, but it is placed on the side of martial arts.
Picking up this jade slip, Shi Xuan used his spiritual thoughts to read the detailed introduction inside. These jade slips are restricted, and you can only see the detailed introduction. If you want to learn, you have to get it to the deacon, who will copy it to other places.
Only on the jade slips can you watch it in full.
This technique is indeed as Shi Xuan expected. It is a technique that integrates sword techniques and techniques. Before learning each sword technique, you must first visualize the sword's power and cut off the evil wind in your heart, thereby cultivating your soul.
.However, according to the conclusion on the jade slip, the sword technique is good, but the cultivation of the soul is not effective. After all, the souls of low-level monks are mainly nourishing and training, so this technique is placed in the Dragon and Tiger Intersection Building.
.
But for Shi Xuan, this is not a problem at all. He does not rely on this practice, it just serves as a cover-up. In addition, the six-way sword technique of "Six Swords of the Wind" alone can be regarded as one or two in the world of cultivation.
Shi Xuan is very satisfied with this point in the flow. Learning this and using it with the Wanxiang Shadowless Sword will give him another means of self-protection.
After taking the jade slip, Shi Xuan walked to the entrance of the first floor and handed it to Xiao Wannian, the deacon of this floor. At the same time, he also handed him the jade slip of his good deeds and asked him to record it on it to express Shi Xuan's
The new outer sect disciple has learned a skill.
After getting the jade slip of Shi Xuan's good deeds, Xiao Wanchang let out a sigh, then looked at Shi Xuan with a strange look on his face. Shi Xuan felt that there was something pitiful and sympathetic in it, and he couldn't help but wonder, could Meng Yu taste it?
Have you conveyed your thoughts of revenge to some people in the outer sect?
While waiting for Xiao Wannian to copy the jade slip, Yu Ruoshui also came over with the jade slip. When he saw Shi Xuan, he smiled and said hello: "According to the introduction on the good jade slip, you have to call me Senior Sister Yu
Already."
Shi Xuan hadn't had time to look at the jade slips of good merit. It was said that there was some common knowledge about the sect, so he could only smile perfunctorily: "Which skill did you choose?"
Yu Ruoshui showed the jade slip to Shi Xuan: "Nuo, "The Complete Explanation of the Thirty-Six Sword Techniques of the Daily", my own skills are pretty good, there is no need to change before entering the inner door, so I chose the door sword
Law."
Shi Xuan took the jade slip of his martial art and said to Yu Ruoshui with a smile: "I am a master of swordsmanship." It was not easy to chat here, so Shi Xuan said goodbye and went outside to wait.
While waiting outside, Shi Xuan met Ming Qingyue, Zhou Dielan, and Zhang Haiping one after another, and chatted with them respectively. Ming Qingyue chose the gate formation - "Upsetting Formation", and Zhou Dielan chose
The Menshui-attributed skill - "Rou Shui Jue", Zhang Haiping chose the Menhui-attributed skill - "Rock Fire Magic".
Then several outer sect deacons took Shi Xuan and the others to visit the Shanggong Room. It was a large hall with clear lights on several walls, indicating the tasks that could be taken on, including those for smelting metals, some for taking care of medicine fields, and others.
Those who are on duty in dangerous areas are asking for certain materials at high prices. Some of these tasks are issued by the sect, some are issued by the chief elders, and some are issued by the disciples themselves. Among them, the task with the highest merit is the perfect "God" issued by the sect.
"Xiao Zhenfa", but to the outer disciples who have never seen the Zhen Sect Kung Fu, this is just a cloud.
Afterwards, they chose caves and palaces. Shi Xuan chose the sunny Chaori Palace located on the Xiangyang Mountain Peak and obtained the jade pendant that controlled the formation there.
When sending the outer sect disciples back to Xuri Peak and Heart Moon Peak, the outer sect deacons announced that in the first month, Shi Xuan and the others only need to familiarize themselves with the sect and concentrate on their cultivation, and do not have to accept tasks assigned by the sect.
