Chapter 6: The End of an Era

"Iron Pillar."

"The disciple is here."

"From now on, you are the chief mountain gate protector of the Dharma Protector Hall, responsible for patrolling inside and outside the sect, cleaning up the affairs of demon beasts, because there will be many dangers in this position, I will give you fifty pieces of Xuantie, and find a way to cast a flying sword magic weapon by yourself. In addition, as the chief protector of the mountain gate, you are also the senior brother of the sect, and in the absence of the master and the two elders, you can control the people in the Floating Cloud Sect, and you can have the right to make temporary decisions. ”

Jiang Mu commanded quietly, his voice was very soft, but his eyes were full of trust.

Liu Tiezhu was only stunned, but he didn't shirk it, he just took a step forward solemnly and kowtowed to Jiang Mu, "Disciple takes orders!" ”

Jiang Mu bowed slightly, his eyes fell on another big-bellied disciple with a big belly, fat head and big ears, and a smile like a pumpkin, this is the orphan he picked up when he accepted the second batch of apprentices, and he belongs to the kind of person who is a big fool in cultivation, but his head hit the south wall, and he has been stumbling in the Floating Cloud Sect for thirty years, and he is thirty-seven years old this year, but he is still practicing qi at the ninth level, and he has never been able to build a foundation.

But this guy is really diligent, practicing Sanjiu in winter, practicing Sanfu in summer, and is also responsible for everyone's food, and the chores on and off the mountain are all handled by him.

To a certain extent, although this pumpkin cultivation is not good, it is Jiang Mu's most important assistant in managing the Floating Cloud Sect, so Jiang Mu failed to persuade him to go down the mountain for the ninth time fifteen years ago, so he simply accepted him as a personal disciple, and ten years ago he personally made the decision and married him a daughter-in-law.

But Jiang Mu couldn't forget another picture in his mind, facing the thousands of people who were pressed by the black, the fat man's usually burly figure became small, but he still hissed and tried his best to dissuade and intercept until he was pierced through the chest by an ice pick.

When the heavy corpse fell to the ground with a bang, only his eyes that couldn't be blinded, his eyes were wide and he looked at it palely, he must have thought about letting his master avenge him, or it didn't matter if he could take revenge, he just couldn't let go of his wife and children.

But his most respected master disappointed him and ran away.

"As a teacher, I'm sorry for your ......"

Holding back the tears that were about to well-rise, Jiang Mu covered up the change in his expression with an exaggerated smile, "Cheng Banjin, from now on, you are the chief deacon of the Deacon Hall, you-you will die in cultivation, but this cannot hide your excellence in other aspects, if the Floating Cloud Sect can grow in the future, you will definitely be one of the heroes." ”

Hearing Jiang Mu's words, several personal disciples, including Liu Tiezhu, were not surprised at all, and even congratulated Cheng Banjin with a smile, because the top and bottom of the Floating Cloud Sect really couldn't do without this smiling second senior brother, and he could almost help everyone solve any problem except cultivation.

He came to be the chief deacon of the deacon hall, and everyone was relieved.

"Well, Master, I-I won't let you down." Cheng Banjin's face was flushed with excitement, he liked it here, he liked the Floating Cloud Sect, this was his home, even if he was sarcastic and sarcastic when he was seized by the master and the second master, he still liked it here, because every grass and tree, every mountain and water, and even every stone here carried all his memories.

That's all there is to his life.

Jiang Mu smiled until Cheng Banjin quieted down, but he didn't choose the chief protector of the Lilian Hall from among the remaining personal disciples, because he had a better candidate.

"Cheng half a catty."

"The disciple is here."

"You know where the third child is, right?" Jiang Mu asked softly, the third child is his third personal disciple Zhang He, and he is also the most talented of all the apprentices he has accepted so far.

Zhang He started twenty years ago, and when he came out of the mountain ten years ago, it was already in the late stage of foundation building, and it was no problem to break through the Jindan Realm, even Jiang Mu's senior brother Yao Cheng and second senior brother Xu Yi were extremely optimistic about Zhang He, and once wanted to ask for personal cultivation in the past, but later they gave up because they were busy with their own cultivation.

Jiang Mu also attaches great importance to Zhang He, and accepts him as the third personal disciple, Zhang He himself is also angry, in the last life, in another three years, he will successfully break through the Jindan realm, the thirty-year-old Jindan realm, not to mention in Qinge County, even in the five counties of Shannan, it can be regarded as a rare rarity.

After Zhang He advanced to Jindan, he stayed in the sect for another five years, and he had a very good relationship with the big fat man and others, talking and laughing every day, picking jade as usual with everyone, refining dark iron, taking care of spiritual grass, cultivating spirit birds and beasts, and practicing for only two or three hours a day.

Jiang Mu reprimanded him several times for this, this guy hummed and agreed very happily, but the result was still the same.

Later, Jiang Mu's second senior brother Xu Yi took away 20,000 spirit stones in person, in fact, Liu Tiezhu, Cheng Banjin, Zhang He and others all knew it, everyone knew that this was the big guy in the past seven years, every day to mine jade and smelt Xuantie earned, Cheng Banjin They racked their brains in order to make Xuantie sell at a good price, and fought wits and courage with the people of Fang City, although it was endless fun, but the hard work was not less at all.

To tell the truth, everyone is a disciple of the lineage, and there is no need to work so hard to earn spirit stones, but whoever makes his master do it himself and take the lead, who makes everyone really regard the Floating Cloud Sect as their own home.

At that time, Jiang Mu was planning to use these spirit stones to replace a new formation base for the Floating Cloud Sect's Mountain Protection Array, after all, the existing Mountain Protection Array was thousands of years old.

In this immortal cultivation world, it's not that the older things are, the better, this set of thousands of years ago mountain protection array has been outdated for more than two eras, and Lian Zhang and this Jindan realm monk can find loopholes.

At that time, the Fuyun Sect even preliminarily negotiated with the Tianxuan Sect of Jiangnan County about the specific time of the handover, and it was Zhang He who was in charge of the negotiation.

As a result, 20,000 spirit stones were directly taken away by Xu Yi.

Afterwards, Zhang He had a big quarrel with Jiang Mu and left in a bad mood.

When Jiang Mu heard the news related to Zhang He again, it was already sixty years later, and the Demon Hunting Division surrounded Zhang He, who was paying tribute to the deceased there, at the former site of the Fuyun Sect in Qin Ge County.

After a bloody battle, the demon chapter and the head.

When Jiang Mu heard the news, he vomited blood several times with grief and sadness, endless remorse, and his heart was broken!

"Master, are you planning to let the third child be the chief cultivator?" At this time, Cheng Banjin was pleasantly surprised, he had the best relationship with Zhang He, and this was also the weirdest pair of many disciples of the Fuyun Sect, no one could figure out why one had the worst qualifications and the other had the best qualifications, where did the common language come from?

"That's right, in the future, our Floating Cloud Sect needs to recruit more disciples, and then expand the mountain gate and replace the mountain protection array, there are many things, and I can't be busy just by relying on your master and myself. Cheng Banjin, you send a letter to the third child to ask him to come back, and by the way, you also send a letter to some unsatisfactory sect disciples who are messing around outside, to see if they are willing to go back to the sect to do things? ”

Jiang Mu nodded, Zhang He is actually very arrogant, but his arrogance is completely different from the arrogance of Xu Yi, one of the three scourges of Fuyun, and although Zhang He's actions are high-profile, he is very disciplined and behaves in the world, you can think that this guy is very arrogant, but he won't feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, it would be very suitable for Zhang He to be the chief practitioner of the Dharma Protector.

In this way, Zhang He is the main outsider, Liu Tiezhu is in the main room, and Cheng Banjin is in charge of logistics, basically, the three of them will work together and will do much better than Jiang Mu.

And Jiang Mu was able to find time to do his thing.

"Xu Lin, you are the protector of the second mountain gate."

At this time, Jiang Mu looked at a slender young man with long and narrow eyes, he was in the same batch of apprentices as Zhang He, he was twenty-seven years old this year, his cultivation was in the middle stage of foundation building, his qualifications were middle and upper, and he ranked fourth among the disciples of the personal lineage.

is characterized by being extraordinarily clever, like a monkey, allowing him to assist the steady Liu Tiezhu, one positive and one strange, complementing each other.

"Zhang Aniu, you are the second deacon, and you are in charge of the internal affairs of the sect with Cheng Banjin."

"Qin Jin, you are the protector of the Sanxi Mountain Gate."

Jiang Mu announced two more appointments, Zhang Aniu and Qin Jin were both the disciples who started ten years ago, because of their excellence, they were accepted as Jiang Mu's personal inheritance, and they are now both seventeen years old, not long after they built the foundation.

In the previous life, the two of them would go down the mountain next year to practice, and they would return to the mountain every year, but ten years later, the aura tide broke out, and the two of them were intercepted and killed outside the county city of Qin Ge by the scum of cultivating immortals.

At this point, counting the old three chapters who went out to travel, Jiang Mu had already used different positions to arrange his six personal disciples.

In the future, the Floating Cloud Sect does not need to travel down the mountain, and it is the best choice for everyone to unite together.

In the future, there is a high probability that the aura will not be able to recover, and the era of immortal cultivators will come to an end, and no matter how strong the immortal cultivators are, they will become mortals.

And the advantage of mortals is that there are many people, and it doesn't matter how many people are scattered, what they are afraid of is the kind of soldier who has experienced a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, is strong-willed, and murderous.

Tens of millions of people are like a whole, neatly aligned, advancing and retreating in a certain way, not afraid of death, killing a batch and a batch, there will always be a moment when your mana is exhausted.

The Great Qin Taizu, who was a mortal and finally established a mortal dynasty, had such a hundred battles under his hands.

In the case that the immortal cultivator does not have enough aura to support it, it is an invincible existence, even if it is assassinated, it is useless.

Because before Great Qin Taizu became the leader of the mortal rebel army, there were mortal rebel armies everywhere, and there were not 10,000 but 8,000 leaders of the rebel army.

Even if the Great Qin Taizu is killed, there will definitely be the Great Chu Taizu and the Great Zhou Taizu.

The world's ascetic immortals have been cultivated for a long time!
