When Wenren Hanyu recruited Xu Qingyun and the others, he had indeed promised to give each of them a snow beast.
Snow beasts are unique spiritual beasts in the snow-capped mountain holy land. They are hard to come by and have a price but no market.
Qin Yuying didn't mention it, and Xu Qingyun almost forgot about it.
"You guys wait for me here for a while, I'll call the other three people to pick out the snow beasts together." Qin Yuying looked at Xu Qingyun and the others and said.
Xu Qingyun nodded and waited for Qin Yuying here.
After a while, three other people arrived, so everyone followed Qin Yuying to the Spiritual Beast Garden in the Snow Mountain Holy Land.
Half an hour later, after passing through many barriers and restrictions, they finally arrived at the Spiritual Beast Valley in the Snow Mountain Holy Land. The cold wind howled in the valley, creating a world of ice and snow.
It is said to be the Spiritual Beast Park, but actually it is more appropriately called the Spiritual Beast Valley because it is located in a valley.
As soon as they entered the Spirit Beast Valley, Xu Qingyun and others were shocked by the sight before them.
Surrounded by a snow-white wilderness, the snow-covered trees shimmered white under the wash of ice and snow. Birdsong sounded from a distance, as if a group of snowbirds were singing loudly.
In the sight of Xu Qingyun and others, each and every majestic snow beast shines with its own unique light. Different snow beasts can be seen in every corner of the Spirit Beast Valley.
An ice-blue snow wolf, with a tall and powerful body and a hint of ferocity in its eyes, shuttled quickly through the wind and snow, like a flash of lightning; an ice-white snow deer, with jade-like horns, walked gracefully and lightly.
The pace seems to be of noble birth; there is also an ice bird with flying ice crystal wings, which is quietly suspended in the air, its feathers shining like white jade...
There are also many snow beasts that Xu Qingyun and others have never seen before.
Xu Qingyun and others were quickly attracted by these snow beasts.
"That snowbird is so beautiful!"
Yuan Tianyi pointed at a flying bird and shouted.
"Is that a snow deer?"
"I like that snow wolf better!"
"I want one that can fly. Maybe it can take me flying in the future!"
Several people were chattering and talking non-stop, very excited.
Some snow beasts can indeed be used as mounts. Once the snow beasts are trained, they have extraordinary fighting power. They can be used as combat partners to fight together to deal with enemies. When encountering danger, the snow beasts can also protect their masters.
Qin Yuying stretched out her finger, pointed at a snow dragon wearing silver scales in the distance, and said: "That is the ice scale dragon, it is the most powerful existence in the Spirit Beast Valley. It has extremely powerful ice and snow power.
"
"However, it already has an owner, and he is the Holy Lord's snow beast."
Xu Qingyun and others turned their attention to the ice-scale dragon. Its snow-white body seemed to exude a cold aura. Under the sunlight, it shone brightly with ice crystals.
No snow beast around dared to approach him. Xu Qingyun and the others could feel a dangerous aura just by looking at it from a distance. This ice scale dragon was very powerful.
The Spiritual Beast Park has a strong barrier, so there is no need to worry about these snowy mountains escaping.
"You don't actually need to look at these snow beasts outside, because most of them have owners. Even if they are ownerless, they are not so controllable and are not suitable for you." Qin Yuying said, not that he meant to pour cold water on Xu Qingyun and the others.
.
Snow beasts generally need to be cultivated from an early age. Adult snow beasts like these are not suitable for Xu Qingyun and others. Of course, what Xu Qingyun and the others want to choose are snow beasts in their infancy.
"Let's go, follow me."
These snow beasts outside generally do not attack people. They are all tamed. Those that are not tamed will usually be released.
Xu Qingyun and the others followed Qin Yuying and then saw many disciples from the Snow Mountain Holy Land busy here, feeding the snow beasts.
Qin Yuying seemed to have thought of something, and said to Xu Qingyun and the newcomers: "Both the outer disciples and the inner disciples have to work, not just in cultivation. The outer disciples do the most and most tiring work."
"For example, come to the Spiritual Beast Garden to feed the spirit beasts, go to the Scripture Collection Pavilion to clean, go to the Shantang to process ingredients, etc."
"You can still have fun these two days, but when your training and work are officially arranged on the third day, you won't be so relaxed."
"Ah! You still have to work, can't you just practice cultivation?"
Yuan Tianyi was a little dumbfounded. She didn't expect that she would still have to work.
Qin Yuying wanted to laugh, but she held it back.
"Of course you have to work. Who told you that you just need to practice."
"The Snow Mountain Holy Land is so big. To maintain its operation, someone must work. Work is actually training you. And if you are assigned a good job, you can also build a good relationship with some leaders, which may be beneficial!"
As someone who has experienced this, Qin Yuying knows this very well.
She was also promoted step by step from an outer disciple to become a core disciple.
"Sister Qin, if you become a core disciple, will you no longer have to work?" Xu Qingyun suddenly asked.
"No, core disciples also have to work, but it's not physical work, and there's no fixed job. It's more casual, just follow the arrangements."
"Just like now, when I take you to familiarize yourself with the environment of the snow mountain holy land and take you to choose snow beasts, I am actually working." Qin Yuying said.
Hearing this, Xu Qingyun nodded: "I understand."
In fact, the core disciples are almost the management.
"Snow Mountain Holy Land is different from other hidden sects. Other hidden sects will have a lot of servants. Those servants are not considered disciples of the sect. They are dedicated to doing hard and tiring work."
"However, these handymen are not completely without opportunities. The sect will conduct some assessments every once in a while. If you pass the assessment, you can become a disciple of the sect and get rid of the status of a handyman."
"But that kind of assessment is generally very difficult, and the passing rate is extremely low."
"There are basically no handymen in the Snow Mountain Holy Land, so the work falls on us disciples. We practice and work at the same time."
"You don't have to worry too much. In fact, it won't be very tiring. Moreover, since we are all cultivators, our physical strength is much better than that of ordinary people, so the work is relatively easy."
"And it's not for nothing. You get points, and the points can be exchanged for training resources."
"Some people are eager to do more work, so that they can exchange for more cultivation resources and improve their cultivation."
Qin Yuying patiently told Xu Qingyun and the others this.
"Sister Qin, why are you here?"
"Is your snow beast injured?"
In front of Xu Qingyun and others, a woman in her thirties appeared, wearing the clothing of a disciple of the Snow Mountain Holy Land, but it was different from what Xu Qingyun and the others were wearing, but the same as Qin Yuying.
Obviously this woman is also a core disciple.
"No, Shanshan, I brought people here to select snow beasts." Qin Yuying said.
Yu Shanshan glanced at Xu Qingyun and others behind Qin Yuying, and said doubtfully: "Aren't they outer disciples? How are they qualified to choose snow beasts?!"
Yu Shanshan had met Xu Qingyun and the others at the initiation ceremony, so she recognized them.
"It's like this. When the third elder recruited them, he promised them to give each of them a snow beast."
"Shanshan, this is the handwriting given to me by the third elder. Please read it."
Qin Yuying explained and took out a handwriting.
Yu Shanshan took the handwriting and quickly read it to confirm its authenticity.
"So that's it, then come with me!" Yu Shanshan nodded and said.
It turns out that in the Snow Mountain Holy Land, only inner disciples are eligible to obtain snow beasts.
Xu Qingyun and the others had just joined the Snow Mountain Holy Land. They were only outer disciples and were not eligible to obtain snow beasts.
That's why Yu Shanshan was surprised and confused when she first saw Xu Qingyun and the others.
