Chapter 39: Teaching Each One (4000 words)
Slightly different from the quiet atmosphere in the Alchemy Hall, where there were only one old and one young, the White Yang Sect was the first of the five major forces here in the Cloud Wind Country, with more than 1,500 monks with spiritual roots in the registry alone, and nearly 200 foundation building monks as the backbone.
Although there are only one in twenty newcomers recruited this time, these new faces and a few disciples with good qualifications still make this lively atmosphere a little heavier.
Although only five elders participated in the recruitment of personnel, there were more than ten Zhuji elders in the White Yang Sect who were qualified to accept people.
Of course, the five elders who recruited people were not only top-notch in the foundation of the sect, but they were all high-ranking and powerful people, and newcomers with good qualifications naturally fell into their names, and some of the ordinary ones would be sent to other branches as appropriate.
The resources and cultivation of those elders are not so high, and the cultivation of disciples is also an inherent process, so it is only up to luck to come up with talents, but originally the Baiyang Sect did not have much expectations for these disciples who were divided into other branches.
Mizuki Zhai, built between the branches and pores of several towering ancient trees, or connected to these ancient trees is the real whole picture of this place.
Several giant trees lean in front of the waterfall, their rhizomes that have grown for thousands of years meandering through the ground, stretching through the hard rock below the waterfall, struggling to draw water and nutrients from a pool of mineral-rich water, so that they all grow unusually tall and luxuriant.
There is a special soundproof barrier outside the waterfall, and the loud sound of water and rock colliding can hardly be heard nearby.
Several holes were dug into the unimaginably thick trunk to serve as the residence and cultivation place of the disciples, and the lush canopy was not deserted, and a dozen or so board houses surrounded by smooth wooden planks were safely built in it. It is very well concealed, and only when the wind blows the canopy swaying can you stumble upon a corner of an exposed house.
This is Yang Tongying's place of residence, although she herself looks at the impermanence of laughter and is not serious, but in terms of the choice of disciples, it is a bit old-fashioned, except for a few male disciples with extraordinary qualifications, most of the disciples are women.
There are only three or three male disciples mixed in the environment surrounded by beads, and even the demeanor of talking and doing things on weekdays has a bit of femininity.
The male disciples of other branches also had a lot of criticism of the male cultivators under Yang Tong Ying's sect, but for the sake of their rapid progress in cultivation due to their good talents, few of them dared to really say anything in front of them.
At this time, in the hollow between several trees, dozens of people, almost all of them, were women, on the huge wooden platform that spanned the area. Cultivators are also wandering in the Qi refining period, but there are also a few people who are at the high level of Qi refining.
Overhead, the thick leaves of the criss-crossed old branches blocked most of the sunlight from the sky, casting only a slightly sparse light and shadow on the platform, and occasionally the waterfall curtain disintegrated in mid-air into the shadows of the trees, bringing a little coolness to everyone inside.
Now the people standing on these platforms watched with great interest as a half-grown girl danced the rattan whip in her hand, the whip was still a little jerky in her hand, but it was still like a slightly clumsy writhing snake, whipping out a sound on the ironwood placed in front of her.
There was also a scattered spiritual power in the swing of the rattan whip in the girl's hand, not like a mortal soldier, but the lump of wood in front of her was also extremely tough, and a damp branch cut off by an unknown tree only left a finger-thick wet mark dent where it was whipped, and then slowly rebounded and disappeared.
Although this momentum did not seem to be large, there were still bursts of encouragement from the crowd of onlookers.
"This Senior Sister Lu has a good talent, she has already entered the Qi refining period within a few days of being taught by her master, and she can barely activate the talisman. ”
"That's naturally good, otherwise how would the master reward her with this medium-grade talisman 'Iron Tendon Vine'. ”
"Alas, you said, Master, she is also biased, thinking that I have been in the school for five years, and I have finally reached the fourth layer of qi refining, but the talisman in my hand is still the inferior goods that I bought when I went down the mountain. One of the voices sounded with a slight whint.
"Senior Sister Zhang, don't be jealous, among our disciples, there are only three people who have received the master's reward for talismans. If you want to blame yourself for your poor talent, if you are also born with dual spirit roots, you will naturally not worry about this magic weapon sent to the door. ”
"This talent is not envied all the way, it is said that Senior Sister Lu accounted for nearly seventy percent of her wood spiritual root when she entered the entrance test, but her affinity for the magic weapon of the wood genus is naturally far greater than that of ordinary people, if it were you and me, I would not be able to control the iron tendon vine and other medium-grade talisman as soon as I entered the qi refining. ”
"Also, this other person's talent is not envied, and a good magic weapon is to honestly do tasks and save money for self-purchase. ”
"Let me tell you, it is said that the quality of the newcomers this time is good, there is also a young man of the main fire genus, the proportion of the main genus is even higher than that of Senior Sister Lu, and there is a rather rare Vajra physique, and even the metal heavenly spirit root has appeared!"
"Senior Sister Wang, why are you so well-informed, hurry up and talk to us!" A group of women nearby smelled the smell of gossip and gathered around her silently like flies that smelled meat.
"It's boring to say that we are talented, so we can only hit our self-confidence and tell you something interesting. Do you know, this time it is said that a male disciple of the Miscellaneous Spirit Root with very poor qualifications came here, and he was sent to the Alchemy Hall to work as a coolie by the Grandmaster Uncle hahaha......"
These female disciples did not suppress their chattering voices, and did not shy away from Yang Tongying, who was sitting not far away, only to see this person who was the elder of the master sitting on a huge chair that had been dug up from a square stump.
With his hands propped on his knees, he stared at the performance of the newly recruited disciple in the field with a very girlish feeling, nodding from time to time, and his expression showed that he still had some agreement with it.
As for the gossip of other female disciples, she didn't mean to put on a face or stop it at all, she had such a big personality, so this vein in the Baiyang Sect was also the most lively and unrestrained.
Even she, an elder of the first lineage, would participate in the gossip discussions of her disciples from time to time.
I saw her legs retracted, jumped out of the chair, and sent a mysterious smile to the group of disciples who were full of energy: "I'll give you another report, the sister who is a miscellaneous servant in the Alchemy Hall in your mouth is the brother of the female disciple of the Heavenly Spirit Root, do you dare to believe it?!"
"What, there are such interesting anecdotes, Master, you are too unkind, you don't share the news of the explosion with your sisters, hurry up and listen to it!"
I don't know who coaxed her, and a group of female disciples had a tendency to gradually surround her.
"Don't be in a hurry for a while, wait for me to teach your little junior sister, will this strange news fly in my mind?" she waved her hand to stop the subordinates who were about to gather in a circle.
Although this Yang Tong Ying didn't seem to have any quarrel among the disciples, this disciple was obedient and tight, and he was completely suppressed by such a casual order.
She walked to Lu Yanyan's side, looked up and down with a smile, and said lightly: "You can use this iron tendon vine in just a few days, the high proportion of wood spiritual roots is one thing, but it is also inseparable from your own understanding." ”
This round-faced girl has just entered a large sect, she is just a child of a small Xiuzhen family, although she already knew that her talent was excellent, but she didn't expect that there would be such a big reward as soon as she entered the door.
It's just that she is introverted, unlike those senior brothers and sisters who have been in the mix for many years and have been completely led astray by Yang Tongying, so she had to bow down and say: "Thanks to the teacher's reward, the disciple is both happy and frightened in his heart, afraid of disappointing your grace!"
"Silly girl, what is this mere medium-grade talisman, when you reach a higher level in the future, you will find that what the master has given you is just a small favor. ”
Yang Tongying helped the honest girl up and smiled indifferently.
Her words made everyone under the door roll their eyes, and they spoke lightly, and they didn't see anyone giving one away.
Ignoring the reactions of these disciples who had been let go too casually by her, she continued to instruct: "Yan'er, you have deviated from the wood and earth exercises I found for you according to your spiritual root attributes, and the monks should have a specialization, but I see that you seem to be cultivating both of them in unison. ”
"It's not a good thing to exert too much force on the auxiliary spiritual root, Mu Ben Ketu, if you use the exercises of the upper earth genus to control the magic weapon of the wood system, you will naturally have a sense of sluggishness, but don't delay this original talent. ”
As the solid force of the foundation building within the White Yang Sect, Yang Tongying saw the problem through a few glances.
Lu Yanyan thought about it carefully and found that the problem was indeed as she said.
"Thank you Master for your guidance!" said that he was about to bow down again, but he was pulled by her movements.
"This girl is so honest, in addition to cultivation, she has more contact with your senior sisters and brothers. Don't look at them as unreliable, but there is no problem in giving you guidance in cultivation, and your temperament should be much more outgoing. ”
Nodding seriously on the other side, a trace of worry flashed in Yang Tongying's smiling eyes, the disciples who are too unrestrained under this sect will not lead the simple girl in front of them astray.
Well, it seems that I can't talk about how normal it is to be a master.
......
Climbing over the two mountains to the south, it is a scorched earth, unlike the natural scenery of Mizukijae, which blends water and wood. Although the surface of the ground has become like this for some unknown reason, fresh grass stalks that have stubble can be seen everywhere under the floating ash trying to break through the soil.
There are rows of houses on the land with no vegetation, and judging from the houses covering an area of about ten acres, there should be quite a lot of people living in them.
In the main hall in the middle of this, there were only two people left, one was dressed in reddish-brown clothes, and looked about thirty years old, while the other had a young face and was only a teenager in his teens.
The boy closed his eyes tightly and placed his hands on his lower abdomen. There was a long sword suspended in front of him, the blade of which was about two feet long, and it should look like a shiny blade with a somewhat frosted texture, and a little red mark was densely covered on it.
After some deliberation, he suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed the hilt of the long sword in front of him with both hands.
In the midst of the shouting of the sword, he swung it twice in the air, and the sword path condensed into two streams of fire, advancing forward in a cross-shaped manner, and the firelight illuminated the proud or excited faces of the two people.
The flames pushed through the air for more than three zhang before they completely dissipated into a faint trace of black smoke, leaving only some blazing heat in the air, and gradually returning to its original feeling as the empty hall gradually recovered.
"It's not bad, you yourself are an apprentice, and the fire spirit root occupies nearly eighty percent. Coupled with the high-grade talisman that can barely urge you to prepare at home, the power it exerts is difficult to match in the same level. Feng Xiujie's voice came faintly from the side.
Long Mingyu put the sword into the sheath and raised his eyebrows, turned around and said in surprise: "Master, I have practiced the exercise "Palm Fire Order" you gave me, and after your guidance, I feel that my cultivation has improved in just a few days!"
A disdainful smile rose on the corners of Feng Xiujie's mouth: "Don't be happy too early, it's not that your cultivation has progressed, but that I have found you a suitable exercise method for yourself and a little training of your movement, which makes your moves more fluent and adds a bit of power." I've heard that your great-grandfather was also a foundation-building monk, but when it comes to playing with fire, he's nowhere near as good as me!"
This is a bit arrogant, and the remarks of slandering his ancestors in front of Long Mingyu have been somewhat unpleasant, but this Feng Xiujie does have some ability, and the progress of coming to this Baiyang Sect is immediate.
Some of the unhappiness in his heart, the pleasure brought by the increase in strength was quickly put away, and this master's personality was quite suitable for him in a certain way.
Halfway through the laughter, his face paused because he thought of something: "Master, they all say that Jin Linggen is the strongest combat power of the same level, what do you think that girl would be like if she cultivated like me?"
"Hmph, if I don't say anything about other attributes, but don't forget, among these five elements, the one that is more restrained than gold is the fire genus. Coupled with this high-grade rune sword in your hand, why not be afraid of a female baby. Okay, you practice again, and if there are any questions that can accumulate, come to me in the middle of each month. ”
After Feng Xiujie finished speaking, he threw off his sleeves and left, leaving Long Mingyu alone in this hall, meditating again decently, letting the outside aura circulate in his body for a week and converting a very small part of it into spiritual power, waving his hand and flicking the long sword again, feeling that his strength would soon grow and he didn't have to be too anxious, and then he also went home.
Before leaving, the family prepared some medicinal pills for him, and he felt that he had a high level of understanding, even if the village girl had better qualifications, she would not be able to catch up with herself.
So, why not take a break?
