Chapter 20: Outer Disciples
The Changfeng Sword Sect's General Affairs Hall.
"Senior Brother Li, congratulations on your current membership in the Changfeng Sword Sect." Letting Li Qing join the Changfeng Sword Sect was something An Bai had promised himself, and now that the dust had settled, he was naturally happy for Li Qing.
"Thank you, Senior Brother An, if it weren't for Senior Brother An to speak for me, Li Qing would still be a casual cultivator now." Li Qing also expressed his heartfelt thanks to An Bai.
In his hand, he held a lower-grade storage bag, a lower-grade magic weapon to meditate on, a set of Changfeng Sword Sect clothing, an identity token representing the outer disciples, and two hundred lower-grade spirit stones.
The magic weapon was originally a weapon of inferior magic weapons, but Li Qing already had a Liuyun sword that he couldn't use, so he asked the deacon of the Shuwu Hall to help replace it with a meditation pendant. As for the spirit stone, it is the share of the spirit stone of the outer disciple in a year.
Although Li Qing also has a small asset now, he also has to admire the wealth of the Changfeng Sword Sect, and even the outer disciples who have just started are no less than four or five hundred spirit stones, no wonder so many scattered cultivators want to become disciples of the sect.
"Why do you and I have to say thank you?" An Bai said disapprerovingly. "By the way, I will leave the sect to travel for a period of time, and Senior Brother Li can only familiarize yourself with the sect."
"This has just returned to the sect, and Senior Brother An is going out?" Li Qing was a little surprised, he didn't understand the reason.
"Yes, Master said that I need to go everywhere now to experience and seek opportunities for breakthroughs." An Bai did not hide what he was about to break through, and told him bluntly.
"Breakthrough, do you want to ...... Senior Brother An" Li Qing was taken aback when he heard An Bai's bland narration, but he felt that this was reasonable.
After all, An Bai is now at the ninth level of Qi training, and it is logical to make a breakthrough with outstanding qualifications. It's just that An Bai is only twenty years old now, which is very surprising.
"There's still some distance, and that's why I have to go out and practice. The trip to the Jin Kingdom was also one of the experiences, although unexpected things happened, but they gained a lot.
The certainty of the breakthrough is also a little greater! An Bai nodded with a smile, not worried at all about whether he could break through smoothly.
Of course, Li Qing knew what the harvest An Bai was referring to, the yellow-robed man and the spirit stone rough stone obtained in Shangjing, a set of trapping formations of the lower grade of the yellow rank, were all divided equally between the two.
After calculating it, there are four or five thousand spirit stones, which can indeed make the probability of breakthrough higher.
Li Qing is eighteen years old this year, but he has only seven levels of Qi training. And An Bai, who was only two years older than him, had to prepare for a breakthrough in the foundation building period, which made Li Qing feel an indescribable sense of urgency.
However, as a friend, Li Qing was still sincerely happy for An Bai, so he blessed. "In this way, I wish Senior Brother An an an early success."
"Haha, I will definitely live up to Senior Brother Li's expectations." An Bai responded with a hearty smile.
Because An Bai's plan has already been decided, this return to the sect is only because of Li Qing. Now that Li Qing has become an outer disciple of the Changfeng Sword Sect, he is also about to set off.
However, before parting, they also encouraged each other, hoping that the next time they met, both parties had already improved their cultivation.
……
"I didn't expect Senior Brother An to touch the threshold of the foundation building period first, it seems that I have to work hard, otherwise it won't be embarrassing to meet and cultivate too much in the future."
Li Qing comforted himself and put the things in his hand into the storage bag.
Then he took out a rough map of the sect and looked at it, the Tibetan Sword Peak located in the center, as well as the forbidden places such as the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and the Ten Thousand Sword Pool around the Tibetan Sword Peak.
Then there are five main peaks and twelve small peaks.
The cave mansion that Li Qing was assigned to was among the twelve small peaks, so he naturally wanted to check it out.
"Xiao Qianfeng is here!" Li Qing pointed to a place on the picture and suddenly realized.
However, he was not in a hurry to go to the cave at this time, he still needed to choose a technique, which every outer disciple had, although he already had the Black Water True Method, he did not intend to give up this right.
However, it is only the Qi practice period exercises used by the outer disciples, but they do not need to go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and they can be obtained from the Transmission Hall not far from the General Affairs Hall.
However, despite this, the Hall of Transmission of Gong was still heavily guarded, and there was a team of disciples patrolling back and forth at all times.
The entire hall was also shrouded in the formation, and then colluded with the mountain protection array.
The hall is located in a small square, the three big characters of the hall plaque are vigorous and simple, faintly revealing a momentum that contains but does not leak.
Many outer disciples wearing indigo costumes entered and exited the main hall, and Li Qing naturally crossed the small square to the main hall.
When he got closer, Li Qing found a bookcase at the entrance of the main hall.
And behind the bookcase, there is an old man who is registering and burning jade slips for the disciples.
Seeing that his costume should be the deacon of the outer gate, Li Qing stepped forward and bowed to the old man. "Deacon, I'll pick an exercise."
After speaking, he handed over the token in his hand, and the old man took the token and put it in the area of an engraved pattern on the bookcase, and suddenly bursts of white light flashed.
"The rules of exchanging kung fu for you, uh......"
The old man's voice paused, glanced at the information displayed on the token in surprise, and looked up suspiciously.
"You're a new disciple? If I'm not mistaken, the last time I recruited a disciple was three years ago! ”
The old man's words attracted the eyes of the other disciples who were waiting here, and Li Qing had already replied truthfully.
"I'm really new to getting started."
"I see." The old man looked Li Qing up and down curiously, but didn't see anything special, and finally shook his head and said. "Since you are a new disciple, according to the usual practice, you can choose any exercise or spell from the Gong Transmission Hall, and you only need to pay a burning fee of one hundred lower grade spirit stones."
Although the Changfeng Sword Sect admits disciples once every five years, it is not surprising that there are always a few exceptions every year. Therefore, the old man's curious gaze stayed for a while and stopped paying attention, and the same was true for the others.
"Thank you! It's just that the disciple didn't know that those exercises were suitable for me when he first arrived, so he asked the deacon for some advice. Li Qing asked in a sincere tone.
He really didn't know what was going on in the hall, and he didn't know which exercises were more worth learning. Instead of wasting a lot of time searching, it is better to ask the person in front of you who knows the way well and circle a general range.
However, Li Qing also knew the rules for letting people do things, so when the others were not paying attention, he quietly handed over the two hundred lower grade spirit stones that he had just received from the General Affairs Hall.
Of course, Li Qing also considered daring to do this, firstly, his financial resources now allowed, and secondly, most of the old people opposite would not refuse.
Because Li Qing observed that the other party was only in the Qi refining period, he would never dare to act like this in the foundation building period.
Sure enough, the old man saw that his cloudy eyes lit up, and he immediately covered it with a wide sleeved robe and took it into his arms very naturally, looking as usual.
Only then did he cough lightly twice, and said in a tone that lifted his juniors. "Seeing that you are also a sincere person, I would like to mention you a few words. What kind of attribute exercises are you currently practicing? ”
Because Li Qing joined the Changfeng Sword Sect halfway, most of them had their own exercises, so the old man asked.
"Water attributes." Li Qing returned.
"Water attribute, you can take a look at the fifth layer of the No. 13 shelf and the third layer of the No. 34 shelf, and compare it with your own practice before making a choice.
If it doesn't meet your mind, you can also go to the first floor of the C16 shelf and the fourth floor of the C21 shelf, where the two sword tricks are good. The old man closed his eyes and thought for a moment before saying.
