"Oh, by the way, didn't the Supreme Headmaster say that before you, there were four people who had also been investigated by the Soul Searching Technique, but they were still safe?"
"The true disciple at that time was one of these four people..."
Hearing this, Chen Shen couldn't help but frown. He always felt that something was a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
But Liu Susu sighed: "Alas! With the death of that true disciple, the former Haori Mountain has become a nameless mountain."
"The mountain is called 'Jiasan Mountain' in order from the outside to the inside. And the disciples who have heard about this past event are not willing to join Jiasan Mountain because they are worried about carrying the cloud of traitors who come to the mountain gate."
Chen Shen shook his head thoughtfully: "Is it loyalty or traitor, and how much can a mountain gate control? As the saying goes, you are not afraid of slanting shadows. In my opinion, the Jiasan Mountains are vast and sparsely populated, and the environment is quite good.
I have decided to become an inner disciple of Mount Jiasan!"
As soon as he said this, Han Yuankui laughed: "Senior Brother Chen is really so powerful! Junior Brother, I will also join Jiasan Mountain!"
"Then, I'll go too."
"So do we."
Liu Susu and her twin sisters also expressed their opinions.
Chen Shen didn't expect that he would make a start and actually abduct four companions. He joked: "Haha, Jia Sanshan, this sounds really hasty! You don't want to think about it anymore?"
"Even if we are not in a fairy mountain, Shen will never forget our friendship."
"Hehe, strictly speaking, A3 is just a number, it cannot be counted as a name, and there is nothing sloppy or careless about it."
Immediately after listening to Han Yuankui's straightforward explanation——
It turns out that the Qingyun Sect's jurisdiction covers tens of thousands of miles.
But apart from the fringe areas and well-known areas, the real core of the sect is this place made up of thousands of towering mountains.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the originally nameless mountains were named "Fairy Mountains" because of the powerful monks who founded the sect.
Among the thousands of fairy mountains, except for the main mountain Qingyun Peak where Qingyun City is located, many other fairy mountains have gradually gained names over the years——
Most of them were named after the true disciples were assigned the right to rule a mountain.
For example, the fairy mountain dominated by the true disciple Wang Yang is called Tianji Peak.
The disciples of the Qingyun Sect are like the waves behind the Yangtze River pushing the waves ahead. Generation after generation they have fallen and new ones have been recruited. The total number has always remained in the millions, nearly tens of millions.
But over the past tens of thousands of years, generations of disciples have come and gone, and there are only a few thousand who are qualified to become true disciples.
There are even fewer of these true disciples who have a happy death.
When the true disciples of past generations die, or their talents are exhausted due to age, and they are no longer able to make progress, they will be removed from the title of true disciple and become the inner sect elders.
The best among the true disciples will become great elders like Zhan Wanhua, Fa Tian, and Xing Tian.
After taking off the title of true disciple, they can no longer rule a mountain.
Therefore, the previous mountain names will be erased, and the names of the mountains will be renamed with the characters of heavenly stems and earthly branches such as A, B, C, and D, together with numbers.
For example, the Jiasan Mountain that Chen Shen and others joined is not the personal territory of the true disciples, but a place jointly managed by many elders.
Because neither Liu Susu nor Han Yuankui and others wanted to be branded as the younger brother of a true disciple prematurely.
Although joining the Immortal Mountain under the command of the true disciples will make you more cohesive and less likely to be bullied.
But their room for improvement has been limited, and even their degree of freedom has been reduced——
Because you cannot disobey the orders of the true disciples, otherwise you will be destined to die.
On a fairy mountain directly under the direct control of true disciples, true disciples have the power of life and death over everyone under their command, and even the supreme leader will not interfere...
Liu Susu and the others were the best among the disciples when they were in the outer sect. Everyone was very enterprising and naturally they were not willing to live under the influence of true disciples for the rest of their lives.
When they weighed the pros and cons with Chen Shen, the latter readily accepted their views.
To be honest, he really has no sense of belonging to Qingyun Sect, he just uses this place as a springboard to implement his plan with the woman in yellow shirt.
Therefore, this young man didn't want to be ordered around by a true disciple.
He needs more freedom to improve his strength without attracting others' attention and lay a solid foundation for seizing the innate secret in four months.
Along the way, Chen Shen learned many things about the sect from the mouths of Han Yuankui, Liu Susu and others.
For example, the Qingyun Sect currently has a total of sixty-five true disciples.
In terms of quantity alone, the number of elders in the inner sect and outer sect is much smaller.
However, each of them is a true pride of heaven. At a young age, they are all transcendent beings in the Xuanhuang realm, with unlimited potential!
After all, the true disciples are expected to inherit the sect's great authority and sit on the throne of supreme leader. Each one of them is a genius who has been vigorously cultivated by the sect.
Hearing this, Chen Shen thought to himself: "No wonder Pan Xu is the Three-Star Xuan Emperor at such a young age. He should be one of the true disciples of the Beast Refining Sect, right?"
"Hey, what's the matter even if you are a true disciple? Even if you climb to the throne of the master of the Beast Refining Sect and become a strong Xuanzong master, I will still make you pay with blood!"
At this time, a slightly lazy voice came into his ears, interrupting Chen Shen's thoughts: "I said, you have been looking at it for a long time, have you decided which fairy mountain to go to?"
The speaker is none other than a deacon from Shulu Hall, an inner disciple.
Chen Shen nodded firmly: "It's decided, I want to go to Jiasan Mountain."
"Well, we are all going to Jiasan Mountain, please." Liu Susu and others also handed over their identity tokens to each other, and carved the word "Jiasan" on the corner, which is where they will belong in the future.
"oh?"
When the deacon heard this, he looked at everyone twice, then shook his head with a sneer on his face, and the dragon bone stone seal in his hand rose and fell——
"Pah, pah, pah, pah!"
In a moment, the Xuanli steel seal was engraved on the identity tags of Chen Shen and others.
At this moment, a burst of hearty laughter suddenly sounded from the door of Shulu Hall: "Wahahahaha! Good, good, great!"
Everyone looked back in surprise, only to see an old man with a goatee, rosacea, and middle-parted hair walking up to them.
Judging from the staggering look on his steps, he must be drunk, right? It makes people worry whether the old man will stumble with his right foot and fall hard.
The old man put his identity card in front of the deacon, and seemed to draw away some contribution points.
Then, the old man's rough palm patted the shoulders of Chen Shen and others one by one, and while belching wine, he praised: "Not bad, not bad. I heard your whispers before."
