A pretty girl entered an elegant room silently and spoke respectfully to the tall old man inside.
"Master Leng Yue? Are you trying to pave the way for her useless niece?"
Mu Taoren sneered.
Ever since he learned that he had chosen the foundation-building monks recruited from the grocery store, there has been an endless stream of Master Jiedan who have come to visit him recently. The purpose is very simple. In order to give him some juniors who have given up their thoughts on practice,
Find a place to retire.
Of course Mu Taoren chose to refuse.
Lu Xuan entrusted him to handle this matter, which showed his full trust in him, and he naturally could not let him down.
"I've told you so many times that what we need are casual cultivators or people from small families, some elders with alchemy skills, or even people from sects to come and join in the fun."
"If I want to find you, my Mu family alone can completely fill those few openings, so where can I find you?"
Mu Taoren sneered and continued to look at the pile of jade slips on the table.
Inside the jade slips are the information of the foundation-building monks who came to sign up, including but not limited to their origin, cultivation level, age, the techniques they practiced, etc.
These are already the results of his preliminary screening.
There are no less than a thousand Foundation Establishment monks who came to sign up, and many even traveled thousands of miles to come from other realms for that one-in-a-million opportunity.
Although the conditions on the surface are only family background, cultivation, and character, there are many hidden conditions.
Among them, the most important point is age.
Foundation-building monks who are over two hundred years old are basically eliminated by Mu Taoists.
Two hundred years of life is still in the realm of foundation building, which means that the potential is limited, and the number of years that one can serve the store is much shorter than others, so it is relatively uneconomical to choose one.
As for the foundation-building monks with a lifespan of less than 100 years... Even if such a young talent is placed in the sect, he can be regarded as a little genius in cultivation. Naturally, he will not give up his future for that little salary and benefits.
In addition, the exercises practiced by monks are also very important.
Some foundation-building monks who practiced evil techniques and even heretical practices were also eliminated by the Mu Taoists.
Leaving these monks behind is a hidden danger. If it goes on for a long time, it may bring trouble to the store and Lu Xuan.
In addition, the external conditions of monks are also an important screening criterion.
After all, once selected, it represents the image of the store. Those who are born with strange shapes or have defects caused by acquired skills are firmly rejected by Mu Taoist.
What he is interested in should at least have good facial features and be approachable, even better.
As for the character of the mind, it is easy to judge.
Over the years, he has collected countless strange treasures, including those related to illusions, which can be used to initially test the character of many monks.
Even if they are prepared and have secret techniques or treasures to resist illusions, it is not a problem to have a general understanding.
"This workload is not small. There must be at least two or three rounds of screening. Wait until the last round and then leave it to fellow Daoist Lu to make the final decision."
"I've been busy for so long and it's unjustifiable if I don't treat me to a few cups of green condensation, real sword liquid and other high-quality spiritual brews."
When he thought of the delicious taste of those spiritual brews, Mu Taoren instantly became more energetic.
"The Baili Jianqing has a lifespan of one hundred and fifty-six, and his cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building is quite satisfactory."
"The external conditions are pretty good and can be considered above average."
"The exercises you practice... are quite authentic, not as messy as ordinary casual practitioners."
Mu Taoren picked up a jade slip, penetrated it with his spiritual sense, and carefully browsed the information inside.
"Sure enough, my background is still a little different."
"I come from the Eastern Wasteland. I was once a monk from a small family. I have the experience of joining the Tianjian Sect."
"Hmm? Tianjian Sect?"
Mu Taoren's eyes narrowed.
"If I remember correctly, Tianjian Sect is a branch of Dongxuan Sword Sect. Fellow Daoist Lu also came from Tianjian Sect. Later, he was lucky enough to be favored by Huanzhen Sword Master and returned to Dongxuan Sword Sect."
"So, this monk named Baili Jianqing may have a close relationship with Fellow Daoist Lu?"
Mu Taoren marked it carefully and picked up another jade slip.
Thunder Spark Cave.
The sky was full of tiny lightning lights that were swimming around randomly, all blocked by the formation.
In the spiritual field, there is peace and tranquility, like a paradise.
Lu Xuan was inspecting the detailed status of each spiritual plant in the spiritual field one by one.
At this moment, a slight trembling sound was heard outside the cave.
His spiritual consciousness swept over it and led a communication talisman to him.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I have already made a rough selection for you. Each one is quite excellent, but you still need to make the final decision. I have compiled the specific information of each monk for you."
"By the way, there is a monk with a somewhat special identity. He comes from the Tianjian Sect in the Eastern Wasteland just like you. His name is Baili Jianqing. I wonder if you recognize him."
Mu Taoren's deep voice sounded.
"Baili Jianqing..."
Hearing this familiar and distant name, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel in a trance.
More than just knowing each other, they simply know the root and bottom, and have an irreversible relationship with each other.
The two of them joined the Tianjian Sect together. When they were in Jujian Town, Baili Jianqing also told Lu Xuan a lot of information about joining the sect.
After entering the sect, he often interacts with him and has a similar temperament. He can be regarded as the sect member with whom he has the deepest friendship in the entire Tianjian Sect.
"Junior Brother Jianqing, I didn't expect that we would have the chance to meet each other after so many years of separation."
Strong joy welled up in his heart.
After entering the Liyang Realm, he also inquired about information about his fellow disciples, but he didn't know much about it, so he left it alone.
Later, I basically stayed in the Thunder Star Cave, with almost no contact with outsiders. I left the Liyang Realm only a handful of times, so the thoughts in my heart gradually faded away.
Unexpectedly, I heard news about that junior brother today.
He immediately activated the formation, turned into a silvery white thunder light, and rushed to the Star Reaching Tower as quickly as possible.
Hailou Chamber of Commerce.
After numerous screenings, fifty foundation-building monks entered the final round.
The grocery store area was limited, so Lu Xuan made the decision in the Hailou Chamber of Commerce branch.
Every monk was half expecting and half apprehensive.
Baili Jianqing sat in the corner, unable to calm down for a long time.
After arriving at the Star Reaching Tower, he was extremely lucky to reach the last step. Xiong Feng, who came with him, was rejected early because he practiced a secret technique of the heretical way.
Different from other monks, his inner expectation is more importantly, that he will soon meet the elder brother who took good care of him.
"I wonder what Brother Lu will look like when he sees me?"
When submitting his own information, he left all the information in the jade slips in detail, including an explanation of his identity as a disciple of the Tianjian Sect.
In this way, I am very sure that I will meet Brother Lu.
"Jian Qing, long time no see."
While he was thinking about it, suddenly, a gentle voice came into his ears, causing him to freeze on the spot.
Immediately afterwards, a handsome young man with an extraordinary temperament appeared in front of him out of thin air with a smile on his face.
