Taking out the sect token, a ray of divine consciousness penetrated it.
"At noon three days later, arrive at the sect's main hall."
Soon, Liu Yu read the information in the token, and his heart suddenly moved.
This message was sent by the elder editor and was considered a relatively official order from the sect.
"It has been five years since the War of Yan ended. Has the discussion about the merits of myself and some others finally come to an end?"
He guessed that when he went to the sect hall this time, he should be rewarded based on his merits, and he was about to get a sum of merit points.
If you are an ordinary monk, then calculating merit is very simple. Just calculate the number of enemy cultivators killed and their cultivation level.
But these Qingfeng leaders are different. If they are only counted based on kills, it would be too one-sided, or kills are only part of it.
In addition, the sect had newly acquired land from the Yuan Kingdom and had to prepare for changes in Qingzhou, so it had been delayed for five years.
"But this delay has lasted five years. I guess some people can't wait for a long time, right?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly and put away the sect token.
Three days later, he left the cave in advance, turned Li Xuan Sword into a fiery red light, and headed towards Qingyun Peak.
The sect's main hall is set up on Qingyun Peak. Although this spiritual mountain is only the second-level top grade, it represents the majesty of the sect and is ranked first among the seven main peaks, only below Tongtian Peak.
Purely in terms of status, it is still above many third-level spiritual mountains.
Even monks in the foundation-building stage must abide by the rules when arriving at Qingyun Peak and cannot fly at will.
After landing on the mountainside of Qingyun Peak, Liu Yu put away the spiritual weapon and walked upwards.
He glanced around and found that the number of monks coming and going among the pavilions and palaces was much thinner than last time.
After all, even if the War of Yan is over, the newly acquired land of Yuan will still need a large number of sect monks to garrison.
However, the atmosphere in the sect at this time was generally relatively relaxed.
Because a great war has just ended, and all five sects need time to digest the newly acquired territory, the possibility of another civil war breaking out in the immortal world of Chu within ten years is extremely slim.
Many sect disciples took this opportunity to gain resources that they had not been able to obtain in previous years. At this time, they could finally improve their cultivation.
…
He didn't pay much attention to the Qi Refining disciples who were saluting, and when meeting fellow Foundation Establishment disciples, they simply raised their hands as a greeting.
Along the stone steps, Liu Yu climbed up, but did not lower his head.
After walking through the cold and harsh law enforcement hall and the slightly cold execution platform, he came to a solemn hall.
The length and width of this hall are over a hundred feet, and the decoration is not very gorgeous. There are bronze pillars standing at the four corners, and there are carvings of birds, animals, fish and insects on the walls.
At first glance, a simple and heavy feeling comes to you.
From a distance, Liu Yu saw several familiar figures entering the palace, so he walked straight in without stopping.
In the main hall, the elder who was presiding over the discussion of merit and rewards had arrived, and it was none other than Master Changfeng.
He put his hands behind his back and looked down at the dozen or twenty foundation-building monks talking with a smile.
As for the headmaster Zhuang Ziling, he stood behind Master Changfeng with his hands down.
He is more of a senior leader, and he is not qualified enough to reward these foundation-building monks based on their merits.
Liu Yu walked into the hall, first bowed to Master Changfeng and held his hands, then walked to a corner of the hall and quietly waited for the start of merit-based rewards.
He was also a little curious in his heart, how many merit points could he get based on what he had done?
Can I be promoted to a true disciple?
Thinking like this, Liu Yu still didn't have much confidence.
After all, the matter of true inheritance is no small matter. It is the focus of the sect's training and shoulders the important responsibility of the sect's inheritance.
Once a gold-forming elixir is refined, true disciples will be considered first, followed by ordinary foundation-building monks.
Although he has a close relationship with the Yan family, the connection has not been interrupted over the years. Even if the War of Yan broke out, the supply of elixirs has not stopped.
There is also the relationship with Master Li Changkong, who can barely be regarded as "one of their own" in the eyes of the Li family and the Yan family.
But when it comes to the status of true disciples, it is still unknown whether the two families will fully help each other.
"What needs to be done has been done, and the rest depends on the development of affairs."
Liu Yu secretly thought.
He has shown enough value and made contributions to the sect that are difficult for ordinary monks to make. He has planned as much as possible, and the rest is up to "good luck".
In terms of merit, his execution of the mission of the Qingfeng Team this time is enough to accumulate merit that ordinary foundation-building monks cannot accumulate for dozens or hundreds of years.
In terms of performance, he is also in the upper reaches among the twelve Qingfeng team leaders and all sect foundation builders.
In terms of value, he is still a second-level alchemist, and he is young and has a bright future.
Of course, there are also many shortcomings, such as not enough sect tasks being performed, etc.
Many pros and cons thoughts flashed through his mind, but finally he calmed down. Liu Yuzheng met the eyes of Senior Sister Li Buyu and nodded slightly.
The sect's main hall was peaceful, but the monks looked quite relaxed as they communicated silently.
Perhaps, you are already thinking about where this meritorious service will be used.
A quarter of an hour later, except for the leader Zhuang Ziling, there were still only twenty-four monks in the temple participating in the discussion of merit and rewards, and no more were added after that.
After all, it is not easy to obtain "merit", and it is even rarer for people like Liu Yu and other Qingfeng leaders who are not easy to calculate.
Most of the monks' meritorious deeds had been calculated as early as five years ago when the War of Yan ended.
Seeing that all the monks who were supposed to be there were absent, Master Changfeng coughed lightly, and powerful spiritual pressure enveloped the hall.
Referring to a list in his hand, he then spoke slowly:
"All of you, my nephews, are the mainstay of the sect. Your contributions to the sect are seen by me and the other elders."
Without too many ink marks, Master Changfeng was not sloppy at all. After a few simple words of encouragement, he began to distribute the sect's "merit points" one by one.
Compared with "contribution points", "merit points" are a more precious thing.
The former can be obtained stably as long as they perform daily sect tasks, and they can even trade among their disciples.
The latter is extremely difficult to obtain, especially in normal times, there are very few channels to obtain it, and it often requires making extremely outstanding contributions to the sect.
Only during the war, obtaining merit points is relatively simple, and there are more channels to obtain them.
However, the process of obtaining it often requires a face-to-face confrontation with the enemy, accompanied by a life and death crisis.
Killing an enemy monk in the early stage of foundation building only counts one merit point, so you can imagine how difficult it is to obtain it.
If you have to compare, merit points are one level higher than contribution points, and almost only monks above the foundation building stage can obtain them.
It is almost impossible to obtain the monks in the Qi Refining Stage by killing them. After all, due to the huge gap in strength, it is impossible to kill the foundation-building monks in a head-on fight.
It can only be obtained in small amounts by completing special tasks.
For treasures that can be exchanged for contribution points, all merit points can be redeemed. For treasures that cannot be exchanged for contribution points, merit points can also be redeemed.
For example, contribution points cannot be exchanged for spiritual objects that assist in forming pills, such as Tianchen Pills and Gold Forming Pills, but merit points can.
Moreover, the role of merit points goes far beyond that. If a monk has a descendant with extremely poor spiritual qualifications, he would not be eligible to enter the Yuanyang Sect, but he can be admitted to the Yuanyang Sect by consuming merit points.
As long as you have enough merit points, you can directly enter the inner gate regardless of your qualifications and cultivation level, and you can be considered a blessed descendant.
And the number of merit points is not only determined by its own value.
To a certain extent, it reflects how much the monk has paid for the sect, and is one of the conditions for measuring promotion to a true disciple.
"Liang Dong's Thirteen Meritorious Points"
"Wei Xiaoqin's forty-five merit points"
"Ma Yingjie's seventy merit points"
Master Changfeng's majestic voice echoed faintly in the empty hall.
First, the number of special tasks completed, then the number of monks killed, and then added together to get the final value.
Every time a name is read, there will be a foundation-building cultivator responding below, with different expressions.
Every time the sound sounded, it pulled the heartstrings of the monk below.
After all, merit points are of great importance, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are related to the path of some monks.
Some fellow Foundation Establishment sects worked hard to complete their missions in the Battle of Yan Kingdom and killed the Baiyun Temple monks as much as possible, just to obtain enough merit points and redeem them for elixir-forming spiritual objects.
Pill-forming spiritual objects have always been strictly controlled by major forces, and those that are rarely exposed to the outside world are sold at high prices, causing countless monks to rob them.
It cannot be obtained through sect channels, and the chance of purchasing it from outside is even smaller.
Unless there are a large number of spiritual stones, spiritual stones measured in tens of thousands.
Listening to Master Changfeng's words with bated breath, Liu Yu was also very focused. He wanted to be promoted to a true disciple, and the merit points must reach the requirements.
In addition, I also want to use merit points to exchange for a "Tianchen Pill".
Twenty merit points are required to redeem a "Tianchen Pill", and the minimum requirement for promotion to a true disciple is fifty merit points.
As for the Gold Formation Pill, a full 100 merit points are required before it can be directly redeemed.
Liu Yu doesn't expect to get the Golden Pill from the sect anyway. His merit points are definitely not enough, and he can't waste time and effort completing the sect's tasks to slowly accumulate them.
With his qualifications, a gold-forming elixir may not necessarily be able to condense the gold elixir. It would be better to give up on this idea and refine it on his own.
"Liu Yu, fifty-five merit points."
While listening attentively, Liu Yu finally read his name, and Liu Yu reacted quickly.
While bending down to salute, he took out the sect token and held it in his palm.
Master Changfeng stretched out his hand to grab the sect's token, then took out a special disc magic weapon, held the magic formula in one hand to activate the disc magic weapon, and engraved the information about merit points into it.
Finally, the sect token flew back to Liu Yu's hand.
"Serving the sect, my disciples will never give up even if they die. Thank you so much, Uncle Changfeng!"
Liu Yu put the token back into his storage bag, resisting the urge to check it immediately, and bowed politely.
With fifty-five points of merit, he ranks in the upper reaches of the Qingfeng team and in the middle of all the foundation building sects, but it is still to be expected.
Due to the special nature of Qingfeng Team's mission, credit is actually not easy to determine.
There is no absolute reference object, and the judgment of merit points is also relatively vague. The judgment of more or less actually depends on the subjective wishes of the elders who handle it.
As long as it is within a certain range, it all depends on the elder who handles it.
Even if it is judged according to the situation of less, it can only be accepted. After all, it is reasonable and reasonable.
"good."
Liu Yu felt relieved.
Finally, there were no accidents. The merit points were higher than fifty, which met the conditions for promotion to the True Inheritance. It was more than enough to exchange for a Tianchen Pill.
After all, Master Changfeng, who presided over this matter, is a monk from the Li family, and he is from the same family as Master Jianyi. It is normal for him to be able to have some connection with him, and to receive more or less care.
Although there was no exchange of words, everything was kept secret.
This kind of invisible care is one of the hidden rules in the sect. High-level monks also have disciples and disciples.
Thinking of this, Liu Yu turned around calmly and glanced at the high-spirited Ma Yingjie.
The Ma family is also one of the Jindan families in the sect. This person's team is much more luxurious than mine, and everything is properly arranged by his elders.
In the end, as expected, this person's team ranked second in performance, only behind Li Buyu.
In addition, with the mediation of the elders above, it is not surprising that the meritorious service has reached 70 points.
If you work this number again, it will not be difficult to obtain the Golden Elixir.
"It seems that this person is the focus of training for this generation of the Ma family."
The future has been arranged by the family, and Liu Yu admitted that she was indeed a little envious.
As for Wei Xiaoqin, her team's performance was half a step behind her own. If anyone close to her could speak to her, forty-five points would be "fair and just."
While he was watching, Master Changfeng read out another name, which made the foundation-building monks in the temple slightly commotion.
"Li Buyu, one hundred and ten merit points."
Many foundation-building monks were in an uproar and looked at Li Buyu with a look of shock on his face. They couldn't believe what they just heard and almost thought they were hallucinating.
This is one hundred and ten merit points!
The Gold Formation Pill only has one hundred merit points!
Doesn’t it mean that it can be directly exchanged for a gold-forming elixir, which is more than enough?!
Liu Yu was also extremely surprised, but then he thought about it and felt relieved.
After all, not everyone has the courage to destroy the Jindan family and the Hua family, and more importantly, get the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree.
If the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree is handed over to the sect, it is reasonable to have this number of merit points.
"Five or six years have passed, but there is still no movement."
"It seems that the secret collection of a Fire Spirit Fruit Tree was not discovered."
"My senior sister also kept her promise and did not leak the news that I had a fire spirit fruit in my hand."
After calmly analyzing the above information, Liu Yu felt reassured.
In this way, if I suddenly announce the pill formation in the future, it will have an effect.
The Five Elements Spirit Fruit can be used to refine the gold-forming elixir, but it is also a gold-forming spiritual object, and it can also have a certain effect on breaking the bottleneck of the gold elixir.
It's just that compared to refining it into a golden elixir, the effect is greatly reduced.
When the time comes, I can completely leak the news about the Fire Spirit Fruit, plus the Tianchen Pill exchanged from the sect, the pill-forming spiritual objects collected from the outside world, etc., and falsely claim that I have successfully used these to break through the golden pill bottleneck.
Thus, the real secret is concealed.
Shocked by the number of merit points Li Buyu received, most of the monks were envious and wished to replace him.
However, Liu Yu noticed that there were still a few people with calm faces, as if they had already known the news.
These people are all people with profound backgrounds, who can contact the elders of the sect and obtain information that ordinary people do not know.
For example, the high-spirited Ma Yingjie still looked as normal at this time, as if he had expected it.
Regardless of the reaction of the foundation-building monks in the temple, the discussion of merit and rewards continued.
Changfeng Zhenren moves very quickly. After reading a person's name, he quickly registers the merit point information.
It was too late, but it was too late. In less than a quarter of an hour, the discussion of merit and reward had been completed.
"The above are the merit points you obtained in the battle to destroy Yan."
"If you fellow apprentices have any objections, you can raise them now."
After reading the last name, Master Changfeng put away the list, touched his beard, and asked downwards.
Thanks to book friend Kong Liulixia for the 1,500-point reward!
