"Which way do you want to go?"

Faced with this question, Lu Wenen fell into deep thought.

At the age of seventeen, he is sensible.

He knew that Tsukidan was not easy to come by, but it was an indispensable thing to continue to move forward on the Great Road, so he naturally had thought about these things in his heart for a long time.

The two paths mentioned by Zhang Shiman are consistent in some aspects, but in the final analysis, they are always a little different.

Qingfeng Sect, there are 20,000 monks in the Qi refining period, and there are 5,000 people who meet the requirements of the sect's big competition every year. Under such a big comparison, how difficult is it to become one of the five people who can finally get Tsukidan?

In the last big competition, Lu Wenen didn't see it in person, but he heard that the last to break into the top twenty were all monks of the ninth level of Qi cultivation.

Before the age of thirty-five, those who can cultivate to the ninth level of Qi cultivation have no mediocrity. Ordinary Qi refining stage cultivators often have to be fifty or sixty years old to reach this level—this is still relatively good, such as Lu Xueting. And now among the younger generation of monks of the Lu family, Lu Mingling, who is the most famous, is about to reach the ninth level of qi training, and I am afraid that he will be almost forty-five years old.

In the past, the big competition of Qingfeng Gate could emerge every time twenty or thirty geniuses who were much more outstanding than Lu Mingling, which showed the foundation of being the number one cultivation force in Feiyun Prefecture.

Moreover, the final winner is all the upper level of exercises, magic weapons, spells, and fighting techniques.

He Lu Wenen cultivated the 'Qingyuan Sutra', which is a composite exercise of water and wood, which matches his water and wood spiritual roots, but after all, it is just a top-grade exercise. The other 'Zhengqing Sword Sutra' he cultivated was a wonderful product, and it was a kendo method that Qingfeng Sect was good at, and it was naturally difficult for the outer disciples to come into contact with it, but the inner disciples basically knew it.

Ritual ...... Special Spells...... Don't mention any of that. It's not too bad, after all, he also has family support behind him, and he may be better than ordinary inner disciples.

But how can it be compared with the descendants of those big names in the sect and the descendants of famous families? Moreover, sometimes these two identities overlap together, which is even more terrifying.

It's rare, but it's always there. They practice top-notch exercises, and they have the best magic weapons passed down from their families and teachers in their hands, and their own talents are definitely not bad, and they are not lacking in hard work......

In fact, in each year's sect competition, these people are the ones who compete for the top five.

Not only can you get Tsukidan, but the key is to shine for a while and cultivate fame and prestige.

Lu Wenen thinks that his efforts will not be lost to others, and his talent may not be bad, but the other ...... There is no comparison.

With such an opponent, it is too difficult to win.

In this way, it seems that the second way, that is, queuing up to receive Tsukidan, may be more reliable?

But when you think about it, it's actually hard.

The merits of the Qingfeng Gate can basically be equated with the spirit stone. 10,000 meritorious deeds are 10,000 spirit stones. Moreover, relatively speaking, meritorious deeds are somewhat rarer than spirit stones.

Either take out what the sect needs, contribute it to the sect, and obtain meritorious deeds, or live and die for the sect, and exchange blood and life.

The advantage is that if you have 10,000 merits, you can basically change to Tsukidan, as long as you line up. Unlike the outside world, you often can't buy goods with 10,000 spirit stones.

But if a Qi cultivation period cultivator wants to make 10,000 meritorious deeds, if he has no background, ten lives may not be enough.

But despite this, some people who have the support of their families and the master is reliable may be able to save 10,000 meritorious deeds before the age of sixty. But every fifteen years, that is, the second year after the sect competition, a batch of Zhuji Dan will be released, and it is usually only seven or eight. To have 10,000 meritorious disciples is definitely more than that.

To whom?

The talent, age, whether the applicant has made significant contributions, and what is the relationship between the disciples...... and so on, which determines who will eventually obtain the precious Tsukidan among the people who can also make 10,000 meritorious contributions.

There are two paths, both of which are very difficult.

Zhang Shiman's voice sounded again: "The teacher suggests that you take the second path, which is to praise meritorious service." ”

"Master, please. ”

"You are gifted and intelligent, and you are willing to work hard, but compared to those descendants of the elders in the sect and the disciples from the big clans, it is too difficult to win in the competition. And if you can achieve the ninth level of Qi cultivation before the age of thirty-five, with infinite potential at that young age, and if you have accumulated enough merits, maybe I can find some connections as a teacher and ask for a Zhuji Dan in that Fa Dan sixteen years later. ”

"Yes...... In the past 12 years, the disciple has only saved 200 merits...... In 16 years, how easy is it to save 10,000?"

"It's up to your Lu family's ability. Zhang Shiman said, "If you can have 8,000 meritorious deeds by then, the teacher can lend you 2,000 to make up for the gap." No matter how much there is, there is nothing that can be done as a teacher. ”

Zhang Shiman is just a monk in the foundation building period, and he can promise to make up for the gap of 2,000, which has been benevolent and righteous, and Lu Wenen also knows that he can't ask for too much.

With a heavy heart, Lu Wenen gritted his teeth and said, "Then, the disciple wants to sign up and participate in this sect's trip to the northern frontier!"

"Don't be impulsive!" Zhang Shiman's face sank, "The quota for this trip to Northern Xinjiang has already been decided within the sect, and a young true disciple like you does not need to participate." I know you're in a hurry, but what I mean by telling you this is to let you pass on the message to the Lu family behind you, and prepare more things within fifteen years, not for you to go to Northern Xinjiang to die!"

"I understand Master's kindness. Lu Wenen was not in a hurry, and bowed again, "I know the situation of my family, and I can help some, but it will definitely not be much." What's more, how can a monk of my generation not struggle for himself? If you kill a white ghost, you can get 10 points of merit, and if you kill a snow witch, you can get 50 points of merit. Kill 500 white ghosts, and I will be able to make up 10,000 merits!"

Zhang Shiman laughed angrily: "I will go to Northern Xinjiang for the teacher, whether I can kill a hundred white ghosts is not certain, why do you kill five hundred?"

Lu Wenen is still very serious: "Participating in a patrol outside the city can get 50 meritorious deeds, conducting a close reconnaissance, you can get 300 to 600 meritorious deeds, and participating in a major battle on the front line can get additional meritorious rewards, the specific amount depends on the results of the battle......

Zhang Shiman's face became more and more gloomy.

"The disciple also knows that with my current strength, it is a fantasy to want to participate in a big war and accumulate 10,000 meritorious deeds. But this is an excellent opportunity to accumulate meritorious deeds, and every time the white ghost travels south, it will bring a huge disaster, but for my generation of monks, how can it not be a great opportunity? It is rare to see it once in decades, and I don't want to miss it. ”

"You're only seventeen years old, and you're not yet ready to take this bloody path. ”

"The journey of the avenue, how can there be an easy way to walk?"

"Alas......" Zhang Shiman sighed and said, "You can have such an awareness at such an age, which is stronger than I did back then." ”

"Then Master agreed?"

"Nope. Zhang Shiman said, "Just let you go to Northern Xinjiang, then your Lu family knows about it, don't you want to hate me to death?" I will send a letter to your grandmother Lu Ranting to explain this matter. If she agrees, I won't stand in the way. ”
