"Elder Ni, this time the mountain gate is opened, a total of eight outer disciples and one hundred and twenty handyman disciples will be recruited... The background of all disciples has been investigated and they are all clean and available."
The middle-aged deacon leaned over and presented a list, which recorded the personal information of each disciple in detail.
Of course, the number of outer sect disciples in each session is not so small, mainly because the immortal seedlings discovered on weekdays have long been sent to the sect, and they cannot wait foolishly for the gate to open once every ten years.
Elder Ni took the file and stuffed it into his sleeve without looking at it carefully.
He is actually only over fifty years old, and he was originally considered a promising foundation-building monk of Qingfeng Sect.
But not long after establishing the foundation, he went on a trip and was ambushed by a demon girl from the Huanxi Sect.
His cultivation was no match for that of the witch, and he was tortured for three days and nights after being captured.
Although the Huanxi sect demon girl did not take his life, his essence was squeezed out, his roots were damaged, and even his lifespan was lost for decades.
Master Yang carefully examined Elder Ni and said frankly that unless he could take a very small number of heaven and earth spirit fruits, the avenue of his life would be cut off and his cultivation would be impossible to progress further.
After suffering this disaster, Elder Ni's image changed drastically. He exuded an old-fashioned air and was only responsible for common affairs such as ceremonies.
"Has the investigation on the two murdered cultivators been clear?"
"We found out that the two of them, nicknamed the Que Family's Twin Wolves, often went to and from the market to sell monster materials. The casual cultivators who teamed up with them to explore were not damaged in the mountains at a high rate, but several of them disappeared for no apparent reason six months later.
In the mountains."
Two casual cultivators died near the Qingfeng Gate, causing quite a stir.
After in-depth investigation, it was discovered that the two men were highly suspected of committing robbery.
The middle-aged deacon felt happy for a while, but fortunately he died before he even started.
If the two brothers were to become handyman disciples, if anything happened, he, the person who passed the assessment, would also be implicated.
"It is basically certain that it was a vendetta. Uncle Ma went to the scene to investigate. The perpetrator did not leave any clues and only used a flying sword to kill two people in a short time."
"Uncle Ma can only judge that the person who shot it is a monk in the late stage of Qi refining, and his sword skills are proficient and ruthless. His cultivation level cannot be higher, otherwise the defensive magic weapon of the second son of the Que family should be chopped into pieces with one sword."
"There is a high probability that the outsider cultivators were targeted by the Que family brothers and tried to kill people to seize the treasure. Who knew that the man had a flying sword in his hand and easily killed the two of them."
The middle-aged deacon reported the exact opinions given by Uncle Ma. Anyway, Elder Ji Zhu gave the decision.
As for whether the murderer can be tracked down, that is up to the law enforcement department.
"Let's form a file, one for the Law Enforcement Hall and one for me. Maybe they will ask about it when I have to report to the boss later."
Elder Ni dusted off his Taoist robe and slowly stood up.
"There is also a newly promoted inner disciple waiting for me to deal with."
"Where did the inner disciple come from at this time? It's not time for the sect's competition... Could it be that he is a disciple specially promoted by the master?"
The middle-aged deacon bent down and felt something in his heart.
There is nothing wrong with ordinary inner disciples, but if promoted by the head master, the meaning is different.
…
The first two times he came to Qingfengmen, Bai Zichen was a visitor. This time, after reporting his identity and purpose of visit, he was immediately led to the Chuan Gong Hall.
After waiting for an entire hour in a side hall, there were sounds of footsteps, and three foundation-building elders arrived together.
"Bai Zichen has met several elders."
Bai Zichen bowed his head and saluted, his eyes passed over and he found that the two of them were acquaintances.
The man on the left, with dark skin, rough and bold, is the elder Peng Chong who was responsible for inheriting the stone tablet;
The man on the right, with a stooped figure and a perpetually sad and tired face, is Elder Ni Kuan, who presided over this grand opening of the mountain gate to recruit new disciples.
The person in the middle has a slightly higher status and brings a stronger sense of oppression than the other elders.
"Pei Dongyong of the Master Chuan Gong Palace, the headmaster has explained your matter before retreating. It seems that you have made the right choice... With your talents, you can only explore them all if you become a disciple of this sect."
This Elder Pei was short and thin, and looked like a shriveled old man, but there was a flash of light between his eyes.
"Speaking of which, we old men have to share your gratitude... The Aragami Sun-stealing Technique is a good thing. At least there is still some hope."
"Elder Pei's words are serious. The inheritance stone tablet was given by the sect, and it was a coincidence that I got this secret skill."
Bai Zichen immediately matched the lean old man in front of him with the people on the list in his memory.
Patriarch Bai Xianzhong gave him some knowledge about the most powerful and highly cultivated people in the Qingfeng Sect, and Pei Dongyong, the elder of the Chuan Gong Hall, was among them.
Pei Dongyong, the elder of the Chuan Gong Hall, was in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. He once defeated a monk of the same level from the Ghost Spirit Sect with his innate five-element capture hand.
He is one of the few counterattack representatives in the Qingfeng Sect who is not a true disciple, but has climbed to the position of elder step by step.
This person only has the qualifications of the Four Spiritual Roots, and his cultivation speed has always been at the lower end of the sect disciples of his generation, so he barely became an inner sect disciple.
Within a few years, because he could not keep up with the progress of his cultivation, he was transferred to the outside department.
But his understanding was extremely high, and he could master any spell he practiced in one go. At the age of forty-five, he finally achieved the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.
The next year, a vein of spiritual stone was discovered, which made a great contribution to the world.
He was awarded the Foundation Building Pill and succeeded in building the foundation in one fell swoop, shocking the sect.
Advanced age, four spiritual roots, and being in charge of the outer sect...the combination of these identities made Pei Dongyong the idol of all the ordinary disciples of the Qingfeng Sect. Everyone hoped that they could be like him, quietly saving money, and soaring into the sky.
As for Pei Dongyong's ability to reach the position of the elder of the Chuan Gong Hall, one can also see his achievements in mastering spells and understanding the techniques.
"Inner disciples are the foundation of our sect, and all the benefits and benefits are introduced in this jade slip. At the same time, all the classics on the first and second floors of the Chuan Gong Hall are open to you for free, and you can come in at any time.
Borrow."
"And in the second-level high-grade spiritual veins, you can choose a cave yourself, and send two handyman disciples to serve you at the same time, so as to prevent the inner disciples from being distracted by the general affairs."
"As for the difficulties encountered in practice, every three months an elder will hold a Dharma meeting in the Chuan Gong Hall to exchange questions and answer questions. It is specially opened for you inner disciples."
"At the same time, unlike the outer disciples and handyman disciples, the inner disciples do not have any mandatory sect tasks. What you have to do is to practice hard and compete for a spot as a true disciple."
"Five years, each inner sect disciple only has five years... If you don't become a true disciple, you will be sent to the outer sect to work as a steward, and these benefits have nothing to do with you."
Ordinary inner sect disciples are already familiar with these regulations. It is because of Bai Zichen's special case that he has the status of an inner sect disciple as soon as he enters the sect, so Elder Pei needs to introduce them in detail.
Elder Pei took out a large seal and pressed it hard on a file with Bai Zichen's name written on it. A trace of golden light sank into the seal.
The other two elders also attached seals at the back.
In this way, Bai Zichen's identity as an inner disciple of the Qingfeng Sect was confirmed.
"Disciple understands."
Taking the jade slip and a waist badge representing the inner disciples of the Qingfeng Sect, Bai Zichen saluted the three elders.
It seems like it’s time for me to have a new five-year plan.
