For Xu Mu's choice, the family didn't care too much, anyway, he was an old man who was dying, and it didn't make much sense to pick anything.

After the two signed the contract, they did not directly arrange a place for Xu Mu to live, but asked him what tasks he was going to do.

The so-called task in the contract is not to go to the barren mountains and mountains to hunt a demon beast and solve it.

It's more of a job than a task.

The easiest and easiest thing to use is to refine the pill, which is the grade of the pill, and the amount to be refined is also different.

At a level like Xu Mu, if he refined a third-order elixir, he might have to refine thousands of bottles to complete the task.

The fourth-order requires hundreds of bottles, the fifth-order is almost close to a hundred, and the sixth-order is about thirty or forty bottles.

Basically, if you want to complete the task, it will take at least half a year.

Completing it once in three years is equivalent to taking one day off and five days off.

In addition, there are also management of medicine gardens, teaching apprentices, shop sitting, etc., which are basically related to pills.

However, the cycle of these tasks can be long, as little as one year, as much as three years, and the only advantage is that it is easier.

For example, managing a medicine garden does not require you to stare at it all day and night, usually you can go to see it once every ten days and half a month.

If the means are clever, you can also extract a lot of benefits from it.

The downside is that if something goes wrong with the medicine garden, you may have to take the blame.

Xu Mu didn't hesitate much, and chose the task of alchemy to stay in Yan Dan.

He is very familiar with refining Zhuyan Dan, and he can practice hundreds of bottles in one furnace, and he can complete the task in less than two months.

Seeing that Xu Mu actually took on the alchemy task, the three of them shook their heads again in their hearts.

This is really not taking your own life seriously!

Alchemy consumes spirit and energy, like Xu Mu's case, what is it that is not death?

However, the three of them are not related to him, coupled with his stubborn temper, he is too lazy to persuade him, and he will die early and be born sooner!

I just hope you won't be so stubborn in your next life.

Once you've chosen your mission, it's time to choose where to live.

It's just that Dantang is not responsible for this aspect, but the internal affairs hall of Xianyue Palace is responsible.

The elders of the Internal Affairs Hall couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when they saw Xu Mu's old state, if it weren't for the Dantang elders to follow, they were afraid that they would blast him out.

"Elder Lu, I won't say more, you should know how to do it!"

Elder Dantang commanded like a dumb riddle.

There is no doubt about the role of the pill for cultivators, and the status of the Dantang is naturally extraordinary, and the Internal Affairs Hall still has to sell a little face.

It's a pity that the meaning of the other party's words is not to take care of Xu Mu.

To be honest, an old bone like Xu Mu, who has no potential at all, would not have bothered to accept it if it weren't for the other party's door rules.

Even if it was accepted, it would be perfunctory at best, and naturally he was unwilling to waste Dantang's resources.

The price to be paid for cultivating the cave mansion is deducted from the Dan Hall.

The elder of the Inner Affairs Hall nodded very sensibly, and then took out a map, and after being stimulated by spiritual power, a translucent light curtain appeared.

Most of the light curtain is indistinct, and only the outer areas are clearly visible.

"These are the areas you can pick and choose from, and the locations where the glow shines are already inhabited."

"I see!"

Xu Mu is also a person who has lived for hundreds of years, so he naturally saw the small movements of the two.

However, he didn't bother to care about these small things, so he swept them with his big eyes and chose a quieter place at random.

After confirmation, Elder Dantang gave an explanation, then said goodbye and left, while Elder Nei Shi Tang arranged for a part-time disciple to take Xu Mu over.

"Elder, this is your residence, if you are not satisfied, you need to go back to the Inner Affairs Hall to discuss with the elder!"

The disciple who led the way was very respectful, after all, Xu Mu was also an elder of the outer sect, and he was just an ordinary disciple.

"I see!"

Xu Mu nodded, then opened the door and went in to check.

The courtyard is very spacious, close to thousands of square meters, the cultivation room, the alchemy room, the medicinal herb room, the kitchen, the bedroom, the utility room can be said to have everything, in addition, half an acre of medicinal fields have been opened, and several spiritual plants have been planted, the most precious of which is a third-order laurel tree.

If this yard is well maintained, it will not be a problem to earn more than ten medium-grade spirit stones a year.

Xu Mu turned around and saw that there was no big problem, so he let the other party go back.

He didn't plan to live here for the rest of his life, and when he broke through to the Jindan stage, his status would definitely be greatly improved, and the Time Sect would definitely change him to a better place, so there was really no need to care about this thing.

"Counting it, this should be the third sect I joined, but this should be the first one who has lived and cultivated for a long time!"

If nothing else, he's probably going to be here for twenty years.

If you can break through the Jindan period, twenty years is nothing.

After 20 years, it is not a loss to find such a big backer.

After packing up, Xu Mu went to Dantang the next day and received the medicinal materials needed for the task.

The following days were either in alchemy, or in cultivation and polishing, preparing to find an opportunity to break through the golden pill period.

It was also during this time that the Xianyue Palace held a grand ceremony for accepting apprentices, and it is said that it received several talented seniors.

Xu Mu didn't go to join in the fun, he had limited time, and he needed to seize every minute and every second to break through the Jindan.

But after the ceremony, things came to the door.

"Elder Xu, you can pick a few too!"

The elder of the Dan Hall handed a new disciple to Xu Mu.

According to the contract, he must cultivate a fourth-order alchemist within twenty years, and this kind of thing is naturally as early as possible, and it is impossible for the sect to let him delay.

Therefore, Xu Mu can only choose hard, who let him take the benefits of others.

In addition to Xu Mu, there were many elders in the lobby who were ready to accept disciples.

Some elders, like Xu Mu, are restricted by contracts and can't accept them, while some are active disciples who want to cultivate some helpers, and by the way, they can also get some sect rewards.

Xianyue Palace is still very generous in this regard, as long as it can cultivate excellent disciples, all aspects of welfare can be raised.

Xu Mu had just joined and his status was not high, so the order of selecting disciples was ranked last.

Once you've chosen, the day will pass.

Xu Mu accepted a total of two apprentices, both of whom were in the late stage of Qi training, one was named Ye Bufan and the other was Xiao Feng.

The reason why they were chosen was not because of their good talents, but in fact, there were no good seedlings when it was his turn.

Mainly because of the name, these two are the protagonists as soon as they hear the name.

So in the case that everyone is the same, I simply picked two good names.

Both of them are in their twenties, and their cultivation talent can only be regarded as average among the disciples of the Immortal Moon Palace, and it is not a problem to advance the foundation in the future, but it will stop there.

When new disciples get started, old disciples like them with little potential can only be diverted, either going down the mountain to become the outer gate steward, or they can only change to auxiliary professions and become alchemists, talisman masters, array mages and the like, which can be regarded as another way.

When he returned to his residence, he casually threw a few alchemy books to the two of them and let them study them alone, while Xu Mu continued to retreat and polish his cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, three years have passed, and Xu Mu feels that his cultivation has been polished enough, and he is ready to try to break through the golden pill.
