Chapter 326: Deacon of the Cultivation Academy
Hou Jiangong's words are all good words, the Seven Great Immortal Sects are safe and sound on the surface, but the competition in private is still very fierce, in the kind of place that is unmanageable in the Chaos Demon Valley, it is easy to do some out-of-the-ordinary things, and it is not uncommon to even kill people and seize treasures, so it is easy to suffer if the cultivation is too low.
However, the time of the trial in the Valley of Chaos is fixed, and it will definitely start after six years, so you can only try to improve your cultivation during this period. In six years, even Tian Shengcai was not sure that he had cultivated to the middle stage of Qi refining, let alone Qingyang, a newly promoted disciple of the Outer Courtyard.
At this time, everyone couldn't help but think that it would be good if this Demon Seeking Order was the next trial in the Chaos Demon Valley, more than twenty years of time would be enough for Qingyang to raise his cultivation to the fifth or sixth level of Qi training, and by then he would be sure enough to participate in the trial.
Qingyang also considered this problem, and he himself was not sure that he would be able to raise his cultivation to the middle stage of qi refining in six years, but this was not too much of a problem for him, the Demon Seeking Order was just like this, and it definitely couldn't be wasted, so even if the cultivation was not enough, he decided to go in and take a risk. With the protection of alcoholic bees and the backing of the Monkey King of the Iron-armed Spirit Monkey, what's so scary?
However, it is too early to consider the trial of the Chaos Demon Valley, in five or six years, who knows if there will be any other changes in the middle? Therefore, the most important thing is to meditate and cultivate and improve one's cultivation.
Knowing that Hou Jiangong was a good intention, Qingyang arched his hand and said: "Thank you, Senior Brother Hou, if it weren't for what you said, I wouldn't know anything about it, and I will go back to retreat, and strive to raise my cultivation to the middle stage of qi refining before the trial in the Chaos Demon Valley." ”
The four of them walked and talked, and before they knew it, they had returned to the outer courtyard, and this time they had not been out for a long time, but all of them had been injured, as if they had escaped death, and they all returned to their hearts like arrows, so they went to the outer courtyard hall to prepare the case, and they dispersed.
After returning to his own courtyard, Qingyang directly closed the outside formation, and never went out again, in the more than 20 years of the return journey, Qingyang's injuries have been healed, but people are in danger outside, and the spiritual needs have been tight, and now back to the sect, back to his own small courtyard, the body and mind have finally been completely relaxed.
Three days later, the cultivation institute sent someone to the outer courtyard to find Qingyang, this time the head of the cultivation institute, Uncle Qingyi, personally met him, and after some encouragement, he arranged a position as a deacon of the cultivation institute for Qingyang, which was managed by Senior Brother Cai, and was usually only responsible for the pollination of spirit insects.
Although Qingyang is only a small deacon in the cultivation institute, his income is very high, twenty-two spirit stones a year, which is almost the same as the remuneration of Senior Brother Cai who is in charge of him in the cultivation institute, which can be described as a fat difference. You must know that when other outer court disciples do tasks, their annual income is only a dozen spirit stones, and generally only inner court disciples can exceed twenty.
Maybe as the deputy head Qing Jingsanren said, this reward includes a reward for Qingyang for saving many senior brothers, or maybe it is also because Qingyang's spirit insects are unique and can increase the yield of the cultivation institute, and this reward includes a reward for increasing production, and it will not be rewarded separately in the future.
Qingyang has no opinion on this, for him, the spirit stone is still second, and the most important thing is that he can openly let his alcoholic bees come out to eat the spirit flower in the future. Of course, the six purple-backed wine-loving bees should take turns to come, so as not to be seen by others, and even more careful when releasing the blue-backed alcoholic queen bee so that it cannot be seen by those who have a heart.
According to the arrangement of Qingyi Sanren, Qingyang usually does not need to be on duty in the cultivation institute, and when the spirit grass and spirit valley in the spiritual field bloom and need to be pollinated by alcoholic bees, Senior Brother Cai will send someone to inform him. Then Qingyang will temporarily take over the spiritual field, and use alcoholic bees to pollinate the spiritual flowers while also taking care of them, and when the pollination is over, you can leave after the handover is clear.
There are dozens of large and small spiritual fields in charge of the cultivation institute, but many spiritual grasses and spiritual flowers have a very long growth period, decades, hundreds of years, or even hundreds of years, and they often only bloom once in decades. Of course, there are also those with a shorter growth period, such as the spirit valley that is more than ten years old, the spirit grass spirit flower that refines low-level pills, etc., accounting for about half of the number.
On the whole, the cultivation institute does not use Qingyang many times a year, only once or twice a year, sometimes not even once, but the flowering period of spiritual grass and spiritual flowers is very long, and it is often necessary to stay in one place for a year and a half, but it is not necessary for Qingyang to run often.
What is really troublesome is the disturbance of the elders of other sects, and the cultivation institute is responsible for the spiritual fields shared by the sect and serves the entire sect. In addition to these public fields, many monks will open up small pieces of spiritual fields outside their caves, and the higher they cultivate, the more they plant. Not to mention others, even Qingyang himself has sprinkled a lot of seeds in the spiritual field of the small courtyard to hide people's eyes and ears.
These people heard about Qingyang's alcoholic bees, and they would also ask him to help, as for the reward, it is difficult to say, if you are more generous, you may personally meet with them, give a few words of encouragement, and reward one or two pills. As for those who are stingy, let alone the reward, they don't even have the opportunity to get acquainted, because they won't come forward in person at all, and send someone to send Qingyang away.
In the face of the summons of these people, Qingyang didn't dare to have any opinions, so he could only obediently go to help, who let him cultivate low. Fortunately, the area of these spiritual fields is not large, and there are not many things planted, so there is not much time to lose, and the people who are looking for him are generally those monks who have a big family and a big business, and the number of them is not very large.
People say that if you are well-informed and knowledgeable, your knowledge will naturally be improved, and the spirit flowers and spiritual grasses planted privately are not like the public fields of the cultivation institute, only some commonly used and popular elixirs are planted, and the elixirs planted by these high-level people in the sect are varied, and there are many types, including almost all the categories of known spiritual grass and spiritual flowers.
After a period of busyness, it's hard to say anything else, anyway, Qingyang has improved a lot in terms of knowledge, and now Qingyang's understanding of all kinds of spirit grasses and spirit flowers has already surpassed those old Qi refining Dan masters in the Alchemy Academy, and it is not much worse than even some Zhuji Dan masters.
At the same time, Qingyang also obtained a large amount of spiritual pollen and spiritual nectar, which is also the reason why Qingyang is not tired, those more stingy foundation building monks may feel that they have taken advantage of Qingyang, in fact, Qingyang has also gained a lot of benefits from them.
Unconsciously, another five years have passed, and in these five years, Qingyang has obtained a large amount of spiritual pollen and spiritual nectar to assist in cultivation, and the spiritual fields of the cultivation courtyard have also increased their yields to a greater or lesser extent, but the real harvest is the group of alcoholic bees.
