However, after more than ten days of hard work, a young man named Yuan Fan came over and said that he had completed the task of polishing 10,000 stone slabs.

The stones on the rocky peaks on the east side of Yuxiu Peak are extremely hard granite, and it is not easy to polish.

Yuan Fan alone could not complete this task in a year and a half.

Unless there are elders with high cultivation, many people will help him together.

Zhu Youdao didn't care how he finished it, he casually praised Yuan Fan a few words, and then taught him a weakened version of the strong talisman and asked him to carve it on the stone slab.

With this precedent, many teenagers followed suit, begging relatives and friends everywhere to help polish the slate.

A month later, only two teenagers were left who were still honestly quarrying and polishing stone slabs according to Zhu Youdao's requirements.

One is Kang Datou, and the other is a disciple who has not been a few years old, named Liu Shan.

Zhu Youdao's order to Yuan Fan and others was to engrave 10,000 stone slabs with sigils.

But Yuan Fan only carved a hundred pieces, thinking that he had learned it, so he came to Zhu Youdao and asked to learn the real alchemy.

Zhu Youdao did not refuse, he took out a piece of spiritual wood, made a demonstration of the refining weapon, carefully explained the various keys in the refining tool, and then said to him: "The refining tool is nothing more than refining the rune seal to the utensils. There is a bamboo forest on Yuxiu Peak, which is a first-order spirit wood 'Copper Striped Bamboo', which is suitable for you who are new to refining weapons, you can go and apply to the head of the sect to practice refining weapons!"

Yuan Fan is the nephew of the head of the family, Yuan Dingzhen, and he relied on his identity as a relative of the head of the family, so he directly went to cut the spirit bamboo to try refining weapons.

The other teenagers did the same, and they didn't carve stone slabs anymore, and they all went to cut down the spirit bamboo to refine the weapon.

The bamboo forest of Yuxiuzong has grown for more than 2,000 years, because there has been no refiner in the sect for a long time, there are not many places that can be used, and it is very lush, and it has been harmed a lot during this time.

While the other teenagers were practicing carving sigils with slates, only Kang Datou and Liu Shan were still stupidly polishing slates, which naturally caused cynicism from others, thinking that they were too stupid to find a way to take shortcuts.

Liu Shan also wanted to ask others for help, but he had no relatives on the mountain, and he had no background, so he couldn't ask for help, so he could only do it himself.

He looked at the other teenagers who were learning refining with envy, and said to Kang Datou: "Senior Brother Kang, Uncle Kang is the deacon guarding the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and his status is respected in the sect, why don't you let Uncle Kang help you, how long will such a person polish the slate?"

Kang Da didn't raise his head, he said while grinding: "Father said, others can help you for a while, but they can't help you for a lifetime." And Uncle Zhu's order is for us to polish it ourselves, since we want to learn art from him, we must listen to him!"

After hearing this, Liu Shan thought for a while, so he stopped looking at the senior brothers who were refining the weapon, and continued to work hard.

Zhu Youdao saw the performance of the teenagers, but he did not interfere.

But Yuan Dingzhen couldn't help it, although he was happy to see more refiners in the door, but looking at the bamboo forest that had been ruined, he was very distressed, and ordered that it was forbidden to cut down the spirit bamboo again.

Zhu Youdao had expected this to be the case, and since he went up the mountain, he has gradually understood Yuan Dingzhen's character.

Yuan Dingzhen has been in charge for almost 60 years, and he has been conscientiously and conscientiously the chief steward of the sect.

After Yu Xiuzong became his family, he was in a semi-closed state, rarely communicating with the outside world, and the foundation of the sect was barely self-sufficient.

But he is a bit stingy, except for a few disciples with good spiritual roots in the sect, the resources allocated by the others are only barely enough to maintain the cultivation.

This person is extremely superstitious about spiritual roots, and in the past, he devoted himself to cultivating Luo Jianfeng, the eldest disciple of the three spiritual roots, and poured all his resources into this person.

But since he received Ning Yao, who had two spirit roots, he turned to cultivating Ning Yao with all his might.

So much so that he bypassed Luo Jianfeng and handed over the only remaining Zhuji Dan in the sect to Ning Yao to use.

This made Luo Jianfeng feel unwilling, so much so that he secretly colluded with outsiders and prepared to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors.

Zhu Youdao shook his head secretly, Yu Xiuzong's strength is not as good as the generation, and Yuan Dingzhen's turtle shrinkage policy is obviously not suitable for the current situation.

Now Yu Xiuzong is still the strongest force in Yu Xiu Mountain, but it has been pressed by outsiders to press out, and when those small families and small sects outside are getting bigger and bigger, there is no way for Yu Xiuzong to live.

And pinning the hopes of the sect on one or two disciples with good spiritual roots is also a very unreliable thing.

The spiritual root only represents the potential for growth, and it is nothing if it does not grow.

And Ning Yao, who was pinned on by Yuan Dingzhen for the rise of the sect, although she was a second spirit root, in Zhu Youdao's opinion, she was completely a pampered child. In addition to the spiritual root is better, looks beautiful, well-behaved and cute, and makes people feel happy by their side, there are no other advantages.

I haven't even held a sword, so what kind of monk is he? Even if the foundation is successful, what can it do?

When Zhu Youdao used to educate his younger sister Zhu Youqing, although he was also very spoiled, he still worked hard to train her combat skills.

After Yuan Dingzhen banned the use of the sect's spiritual bamboo refiner, the teenagers who were dedicated to learning the refining weapon had no choice.

Those who are sponsored by the elders in the family pay out of their own pockets to buy spiritual bamboo from the sect to practice.

If there is no support from the elders in the family, they can only give up the plan to continue learning refining.

And Yuan Fan and the other two or three teenagers who were still paying for refining tools out of their own pockets were soon unable to continue, because the cost of practicing refining tools was too great, and their elders couldn't afford it at all, and most importantly, they spent a lot of spirit stones, but they couldn't see any hope of success in refining weapons.

Zhu Youdao sneered in his heart, where is it so easy to refine weapons? Don't you hear that "alchemy is poor for three generations, and refining weapons ruin a lifetime"? A few hairy children, without even suffering hardship, have learned alchemy, then there are refiners everywhere in the world.

So, after a period of time, there were only two people in Yu Xiuzong who did not give up their dream of learning refining, that is, Kang Datou and Liu Shan, who were still working hard to polish the slate.

......

Luo Jianfeng, the eldest disciple of the head of Yuxiu Sect, has often gone out on the pretext of going out recently, he has been on the mountain since he was a child, and he has been taught skills by the head of the sect like a parent.

In the past ten years, he has assisted the head in managing the affairs of the sect and has become the right-hand man of the head of the sect.

The new disciples of Yuxiu Sect are all taught by this senior brother, so he has a high reputation in the sect.

Luo Jianfeng went out, under the pretext of looking for the spiritual material for refining Zhuji Dan, he had been practicing Qi for several years. Everyone thought that he was determined to seek the Tao, and they all praised the senior brother for knowing how to be motivated.

Only Zhu Youdao knew that Luo Jianfeng went out to plot with outsiders how to get rid of Yuan Dingzhen and him, Elder Zhu.

After thinking about it, Zhu Youdao felt that this was his opportunity to control Yu Xiuzong.

After thinking deeply, he came to Yuan Dingzhen's cave.

Yuan Ding was really cultivating, and when he saw him coming over at this time, he asked, "Is there something wrong with my junior brother here?"

"Senior brother in charge!" Zhu Youdao first saluted respectfully, and then said: "I came to Yuxiu Mountain that day, just to follow the orders of the ancestors, to come to this sect to pay respects, but I didn't expect the senior brother to be so enlightened and allow me to recognize my ancestors and return to the sect." I still have a wife in my brother's family, and my cultivation is still shallow, I am very worried, and I plan to go home and bring her here, so I hereby ask the senior brother in charge for permission!"

"Dangchang", the sound of porcelain falling to the ground came from outside.

Yuan Dingzhen frowned and said, "Ah Yao, what are you doing!"

A panicked voice came from outside the cave: "It's okay...... Master, I accidentally broke the tea set!"

Yuan Dingzhen didn't take it to heart, turned his head and said to Zhu Youdao with a smile: "It turns out that Senior Brother Zhu already has a family, so he should be taken back to the sect, you go and go back quickly!"

Zhu Youdao thanked him, and then went out of Yuan Dingzhen's cave.

Seeing Ning Yao, who was a little uneasy, there seemed to be some tears in the corners of her eyes.

Zhu Youdao smiled and said hello and left.

He was also very helpless in his heart, he practiced the Pure Yang Boy Gong, and the higher the realm, the more troublesome sequelae there were.

Not to mention the demons in the third, sixth, and ninth realms, they must be faced.

And the pure yang body is equivalent to Tang monk meat and ginseng fruit for demons, and it has a fatal attraction.

Even for ordinary women, the pure yang breath will automatically provoke people and arouse the other party's feelings.

After he recently noticed that Ning Yao had something else to think about him, he was trying to find a way to solve this trouble.

Today, I chose to come to Yuan Dingzhen's cave when Ning Yao was there, just to show that he already had a family, so that the other party would retreat.
