Chapter 20 Immerse yourself in hard work

Elder Geng came to a quaint stone hall made of boulders in Beixiong Peak.

Elder Geng sat on a stone chair and looked at Sun Yi'an, who was standing quietly in the hall, and said, "Since the sect master has arranged for you to temporarily worship Geng's subordinates, Geng is not easy to refuse. In the past, Geng was able to successfully advance to the Dan period, but he also inherited a little favor from Master Zhang Dan. Not only do you have a relationship with his descendants, but you also have a trace of incense with me.

"On the way of cultivation, the immortal root qualification is important, but if you slack off and don't want to forge ahead, it will be in vain to be the reincarnation of a true immortal. Although you have the Five Elements Heavenly Root that is extremely slow to advance, but if you are lucky enough to embark on the path of cultivation, you must not live up to this immortal fate, it is not without people who are late bloomers in the cultivation world, as long as you can devote yourself to hard cultivation, you may not be unable to cultivate the Great Dao.

"Although you are a registered disciple of Geng now, there are some rules that you still have to abide by. In Geng's life, he hated the most treacherous and adulterous people......"

Half an hour later, Sun Yi'an, led by a tiger-headed Senior Brother Zhou, came to a huge valley called Yaoxian Valley.

This valley is full of flowers and plants, bee saucers are flocking, and the scenery is breathtaking. On a gentle slope, several towering trees surround a small and quaint courtyard. This is where Sun Yi'an will live and practice in the future.

According to the introduction of Senior Brother Zhou, this valley is the place where the Haoyang Sect cultivates spiritual herbs and elixirs, and there are several other low-level disciples who guard the medicine garden living in the valley, but because the valley covers an extremely wide area, they are not close to each other. After a brief introduction, Senior Brother Zhou got up and left, saying that he would come to Sun Yi'an tomorrow at noon.

Sun Yi'an cleaned the small courtyard inside and out, and lay on the bed with great satisfaction. Now he has finally entered the Haoyang Sect as he wished, although he is only a registered disciple, but according to Senior Brother Zhou, even if he is a registered disciple, it is much stronger than the outer disciples, and his disciples are quite special, except that their names are not recorded in the genealogy of the sect, but the salary supply is the same as that of the official disciples.

"In this way, there is nothing wrong with it, living here alone, but it is also worry-free, and you don't have to abide by those strange rules at all times......" Sun Yi'an unconsciously became a little out of the world.

The fatigue accumulated for more than a year suddenly broke out under the relaxation of the wish fulfilled at this moment, and before it was dark, Sun Yi'an fell asleep unconsciously.

At noon on the second day, Senior Brother Zhou arrived as promised.

This Senior Brother Zhou, who looks to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, has a tiger's head and a tiger's brain, his real name is Zhou Gang, and he was born in an ordinary butcher's family. Later, by chance, he entered the Haoyang Sect, at first he was just an outer disciple, and by chance, an elder who went out to do business found that his qualifications were very suitable for cultivating Jinyang Gong, so he was introduced into the inner gate, and worshiped under the name of Elder Geng of Xixiong Peak, and became a disciple of the inner sect, and now he is the peak cultivation in the late stage of qi refining. Although he is still the lowest-level disciple in the inner gate, he is still young and has good qualifications, and he is also valued by Elder Geng.

Originally, this Senior Brother Zhou was only a "Senior Brother Zhou" in Xixiong Peak and even in the entire inner gate of the Haoyang Sect, but now that Sun Yi'an has come in, he has naturally become Senior Brother Zhou.

At this moment, Senior Brother Zhou was talking to Sun Yi'an about the overall situation and matters in the sect.

"Oops, I almost forgot about business, by the way, Senior Brother Sun, this is your identity token and disciple uniform, as well as these spirit stones, which are your first month's salary, and this token, which is used to enter the third layer of Your Excellency Tianque. Senior Brother Sun is really blessed, not everyone can enter the Tianque Pavilion of our Haoyang Sect! Maybe one day, senior brother, I need to consult some classics, and I have to ask for it! ”

Sun Yi'an was listening with relish, this Senior Brother Zhou suddenly slapped his head, then took out some things from the storage bag, handed them to Sun Yi'an, and then left in a hurry.

After Sun Yi'an sent Senior Brother Zhou away, he returned to the house and picked up the things on the table and looked at them carefully......

Five months later.

Sun Yi'an stood in front of a nine-story pavilion in Haoyang Peak, and after greeting Elder Yun who was lying on the bamboo chair at the door, sleeping with a fan covering his face, he walked into the important place of the sect called "Tianque Pavilion" again.

Elder Yun's life was very legendary, and it was said that when he was young, he was extremely gifted, and his cultivation speed was very amazing. In just one hundred years, he cultivated to the early stage of the knot, and then sang all the way, and at the age of two hundred, he cultivated to the peak of the late stage of the knot. It seems that he has become the first person of his generation to practice. Moreover, this person not only has an amazing speed of cultivation, but he is also a suave talent. attracted the blue eyes of the fairies of all factions at that time.

Later, during a trip away from the sect, this person accidentally met a mortal woman, and quickly fell in love. Just a few decades later, that mortal woman could not resist the erosion of time after all, and she still left behind at the expense of the elixir spirit stone.

Since then, Elder Yun has been in a state of slump, and he has no intention of cultivating. Two hundred years ago, in a tragic battle between the righteous demons, this person obviously had several chances to retreat, but he still chose to fight several demon cultivators of the same rank alone. In the end, although he did not die, he was seriously injured and retreated, and now he only has the later stage of foundation building.

I don't know when it began, this person was guarding the door of this Tianque Pavilion and became a gatekeeper. What's even more strange is that everyone from the sect master to the disciple who has just started to get started, when they see this person, they all call him "Elder Yun", instead of being called a senior brother or a senior uncle.

After Sun Yi'an walked up to the third floor of the Tianque Pavilion, he skillfully picked up pieces of jade talismans or scrolls from the wooden shelves around him, and carefully checked them.

This Tianque Pavilion is actually the Hidden Scripture Pavilion of the Haoyang Sect, although Sun Yi'an can only enter the lower three floors. However, there are countless books of various exercises and secrets in it, as well as formations, refining tools, talismans, and so on.

After a few months of hungry and thirsty research, Sun Yi'an at this moment is no longer the ignorant half-baked cultivator he once was. Now he has a new understanding of his cultivation and the world around him.

Sun Yi'an learned from many classics that the world he lived in was called the Wanzun Continent by cultivators, and the territory was extremely vast, with countless dynasties of various sizes and countless sects of cultivation. In addition, there are unexplored primitive mountains and jungles, not to mention the endless sea that surrounds the continent, and it is unknown whether there is land on the other side of the boundless sea. And the country of Yue where he is now is only the easternmost corner of this continent.

As for the Haoyang Sect, in the entire Yue country and even the surrounding countries, it is one of the best sects, there are five peaks in the sect, with the Rising Sun Peak where the sect master Yang Wanlin sits as the main peak, surrounded by the East Spirit Peak, the West Miao Peak, the North Xiong Peak, and the South Youfeng Peak.

The five peaks all have monks in the Yudan period, and the disciples under each peak are as few as dozens or as many as thousands, and in general, there are nearly 10,000 inner disciples alone, and it is said that there are more than 30,000 outer disciples.

According to the rules of the cultivation world, if you can establish a sect with the word "sect", there must be at least a Yuan infant monk in the door. It's just that the legendary elder of Haoyang Sect in the infancy stage has always seen the head and not the tail, and the disciples of the younger generation have only heard of it, but no one has ever seen it.

In the territory of the Yue Kingdom, there are dozens of large and small sects with uneven strength under the Haoyang Sect, but most of the sects have the highest cultivation in the Dan period, and even some sects that are about to break off the inheritance do not even have a monk in the foundation building period. I have to say that he is still very lucky to be able to worship the Haoyang Sect.

Regarding the cultivation aspect that Sun Yi'an cares about the most, he also knows the most. According to the classics, although almost everyone has an immortal root, the vast majority of people will not awaken the immortal root in their lifetime, which means that they have no awareness of the various five elements spiritual power that exists in heaven and earth. Only a very small number of people have immortal roots that are inherently close to the spiritual power of one or two attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Although he also has a sense of the rest of the attributes, he is half the result when he cultivates. Therefore, most people will choose the corresponding exercises according to their natural inductive five elements spiritual power attributes.

Of course, there are also a very small number of people who can sense special spiritual powers such as wind and thunder, this kind of person is called the Alien Immortal Root, and it is rare for hundreds of thousands of people to appear in one person, and often once discovered, they are vigorously cultivated by various sects.

In addition, there are people like him who have the Five Elements Heavenly Root, and this kind of person is born with a strong sense of the five spiritual powers of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Theoretically, this kind of person is the best cultivator of the Immortal Root. It's a pity that if the people of the Five Elements Heavenly Root want to advance, they must cultivate the five spiritual powers at the same time to the consummation state of each level.

It's not as simple as putting in a lot of time and effort to get a lot more time and effort than others. The distribution of the five elements of spiritual power between heaven and earth was originally uneven, and it was self-evident how difficult it was to absorb the same amount of five spiritual powers at the same time. In addition, the longevity of a monk is limited, and he can live to be about one hundred and twenty years old in the general Qi refining period, which is much more than that of mortals. In the foundation building period, he can live to be 300 years old. If it is a fluke, Shou Yuan will directly increase to about 500 years old, and as for the Yuan Infant Monk, it is said that Shou Yuan can break through 1,000 years old. The incarnation period beyond the Yuan Infant Stage only exists in legends, and monks of this level are rare to see for tens of thousands of years or even hundreds of thousands of years, and they may be able to live for tens of thousands of years.

Now Sun Yi'an already knows that the so-called Five Elements Heavenly Root on his body is definitely a "masterpiece" from that Guangfa Immortal Monarch. He couldn't help but "greet" the dignified but scorpion-like Guangfa Immortal Monarch in his heart.

But no matter how indignant he was in his heart, his cultivation still had to continue. No, today he came to find the right exercise for him again.

In the past few months, in addition to checking various classics, his most important purpose was to find exercises suitable for his cultivation, but after rummaging through the first and second floors, none of the exercises he found were suitable for him, not that the exercises could not be cultivated, but the speed of cultivating and condensing spiritual power was really slow, and it was only at this time that he finally understood why several elders did not treat him, a person with the Five Elements Heavenly Root, so much.

A day passed in the Tianque Pavilion, and even if Sun Yi'an didn't give up, he had to accept the fact that the cultivation of the people of the Five Elements Heavenly Root was extremely slow.

Sun Yi'an walked out of the Tianque Pavilion with some depression, and habitually bowed his hand to Elder Yun, planning to sacrifice the low-level flying sword magic weapon issued by the sect to return to the Immortal Medicine Valley.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought, "Although there are no exercises suitable for me on the lower three floors, it doesn't mean that there are really no exercises in this Tianque Pavilion, after all, according to Senior Brother Zhou, the real high-level exercises and secret techniques can be stored on the floors above the third floor." This Elder Yun guards the Tianque Pavilion all day long, and he must know a lot of exercises and secret techniques, so why don't you ask him......"

Thinking like this in his heart, Sun Yi'an put away the flying sword he had just sacrificed, turned around and bowed his hand to Elder Yun who was holding the wine jug and drinking it on his head again, and said, "Elder Yun? ”

"Hiccup~ Leave quickly if you have nothing to do, don't disturb the old man to drink!" Elder Yun didn't even look at Sun Yi'an, and burped with wine.

"Uh...... Elder Yun, the disciple has encountered some problems in his cultivation and wants to consult your old man, please ......"

"Humph! The old man doesn't know anything, so ask your cheap master to go! Elder Yun gave Sun Yi'an a blank look and interrupted him.

"Hey~ Yun Lao, drink less! The disciple retired. Sun Yi'an put away the careful thoughts in his heart, sighed lightly and persuaded.

This Elder Yun's temper, through months of contact, he also understood a thing or two, this person doesn't like to talk to people, he drinks all day long, wakes up and drinks again, and he looks drunk and raging at all times.

"If you don't get drunk with a pot, if you want to be old. You little baby, you know a fart! Hearing Sun Yi'an's words of resignation, Elder Yun put down the empty wine jug and said with a slightly drunk look in his eyes.

"Yes, yes, yes! What Elder Yun taught was! Drink it slowly when you're old! Disciple don't bother your old man! Sun Yi'an, who had touched a nail, agreed angrily, and prepared to leave after sacrificing the flying sword again.

"Humph! A stupid person who rides a donkey to find a donkey, how can he understand the taste of the contents of this cup......" Elder Yun snorted coldly, staring at the empty wine jug in his hand and sighed.

"Riding a donkey to find a donkey? Elder Yun, what do you mean by that? Sun Yi'an, who had just stepped on the flying sword, heard this, suddenly stopped his figure, and turned around and asked.
