Chapter 8: The Rules of the Cultivation Realm (1)
"Disciple Yu Jihang greeted the four elders. In the main hall of Guiyimen, Yu Jihang, Chu Xiaoxiao, and Murong Feng were saluting the four elders who were sitting on it. These four elders, three men and one woman, are all cultivators of the Jindan period, and the tall and thin old man sitting in the middle is the head Ji Ping'an, and on the left side of Ji Ping'an sits a smiling fat man, who is Zhang Le, who is in charge of the procurement finance in the door. The one holding the teacup on the right who just drank tea and didn't say a word was Zuo Junyan, who was in charge of alchemy in the door, and the female cultivator next to Zuo Junyan was Luo Bing, who was in charge of refining in the door.
"Jihang, you have been traveling for the past few years, but we miss it very much. After the Taoist priest and the others saluted and sat down, Zhang Le, who had a simple face, said with a smile.
"Uncle Lao is worried," Taoist Yu replied respectfully.
"It seems that this trip has gained a lot, and it has reached the late stage of condensation in just a few years. It seems that I am a fifth Jindan stage cultivator who is about to be born," Ji Ping'an glanced at Daoist Yu and said politely.
"Is this your new apprentice, and his qualifications are really good. This is a double happiness for you. Before Daoist Yu could answer, Zuo Junyan put down the teacup and said suddenly.
"Uncle Lao is worried, and the disciple also sees that he has good talents, so he guides him to join me and join me, hoping that he can contribute to the revitalization of my home. Daoist Yu replied.
"Okay, don't say much, you're tired of traveling. Just go back and rest first, and then you can take your disciple to the registration office tomorrow to register and see what kind of deputy he wants to do. Ji Ping'an continued.
After leaving the main hall, the three of them went back to their lodgings to rest. Because Murong Feng has not yet registered, he has no place to live for the time being, so he can only live in the mansion of the Taoist priest.
"Yu Lao Dao, what does it mean to choose a deputy position" As soon as he arrived at Daoist Yu's residence, Murong Feng asked with a big grin lying on Daoist Yu's bed.
"Come down, are you sleeping in my bed? Since you have returned to the sect, you must abide by the rules of the sect, and when you see me in the future, you will call the master and salute. Do you know?" Looking at Murong Feng lying on the bed on all fours, Daoist Yu deliberately straightened his waist and said loudly.
Well, the day has come. Murong Feng thought depressedly in his heart, thinking that there was another reason why he wanted to worship Dongfang Wuhate as a teacher, that is, because he had a few years of friendship with this Taoist priest, and the two sides were originally regarded as brothers who had forgotten their years, but this apprenticeship was a bad duty, and his eldest brother became a master, which was really embarrassing, but his own life was saved by Taoist Yu and gave him a good name. Murong Feng was still a little grateful to the Taoist priest.
For this title, Murong Feng also attaches more importance to it. After all, there are quite a few cultivators in the Great Metaverse Realm, and some of them are also clear. Although this Guiyi Sect is a small sect, it is a subsidiary of the Nangong Family, the guardian family of the Southern Realm, and its status is naturally much higher than that of ordinary small sects and non-mainstream cultivators.
For example, once a year, Da Yuan will select the core inner disciples of the four major families, that is, the four major families and the royal family will select some cultivators from the small sects attached to them to join their core sects. Naturally, there is no need to say much about what the core sects of these four major families mean. The disciples who join the core sect also want to have face and silver. There are many more opportunities to go further than ordinary sects, and the premise of participating in the selection is that you must be a disciple of the affiliated sects of the major families, otherwise no matter how high your cultivation is, it will be in vain.
Although Daoist Yu's words were uncomfortable to listen to, they were reasonable. Murong Feng couldn't refute, so he had to get off the bed, straighten up and ask respectfully, "Master, what does this deputy position mean?"
"It's rare that you kid is studious, so I'll give you a detailed introduction to the rules and taboos of our Great Yuan Immortal Sect. You're new to the scene and there's a lot to learn and pay attention to. Once you break the taboo, being a teacher can't help you. Daoist Yu seemed to be very interested in the word master that Murong Feng just said, so he happily sat on the rattan chair, crossed Erlang's legs and touched his beard, and said with a smile.
"Let's talk about the stage of cultivating immortals first. Cultivators in the realm of my Great Yuan need to go through the six stages of Qi cultivation, foundation building, vein condensation, golden pill, yuan infant, and entering the god in turn. If you have the ability to break through to the gods, the power of heaven and earth will allow you to soar to the upper realm. I can't resist, and as for what stage the upper realm will be divided into, it's not clear to be a teacher. And no matter what kind of cultivation sect you join, as long as it is not one of those families, generally the disciples who have just entered the Immortal Dao are those who have just entered the Immortal Dao, that is, those who are in the Qi cultivation period are generally called registered disciples. ”
"Named disciple?" Listening to Daoist Yu's words, Murong Feng asked with some doubts.
"Yes, the registered disciples are generally in the Qi cultivation period, and in addition to cultivation, they also need to maintain the daily expenses of the sect, that is, the deputy position you just asked? If you reach the foundation building period, then the sect will accept you as an outer disciple, and there will be less chores. If you ascend to the condensation stage, you will be able to become an inner disciple if you are a teacher. Daoist Yu added.
"Daily expenses? I thought the immortals didn't eat. Murong Feng said.
"Only cultivators who have reached the Jindan stage and above can rely on the essence of the sun and the moon to survive, even if they are cultivators in the Jindan stage, they need to replenish a large amount of spirit valleys and pills at certain key points of cultivation. You've been with me for a few years, when will you stop eating when you don't eat?" said Daoist Yu with a straight face.
"I thought you were gluttonous. Murong Feng replied angrily.
"Presumptuous! Even if the immortal cultivators really don't eat, don't all the materials and pills we use for cultivation need spirit stones? Without a deputy position, what do you rely on to make money. Daoist Yu said angrily.
"Okay, okay, I won't interrupt, you continue. Seeing that Daoist Yu was a little angry, Murong Feng had to accompany Daoist Yu with a smile to continue to explain.
"This deputy job, more than a few minutes, if you like to plant, you can be a spirit planter, if you like to work hard, you can be a miner, if you like to raise spirit animals, you can be a spirit animal breeder, or to be a butcher. Of course, if you don't mind your identity, it's not bad to learn to be a tailor. ”
"What's the difference between so many deputy positions, it's not a long-term worker for others. After listening to Daoist Yu's introduction, Murong Feng replied with some indifference.
"Changgong, you don't understand this, unless you are a big family, otherwise this cultivator is poorer than the other, and most of the materials have to rely on yourself. For example, the Zhuji Dan needed to build the foundation, and the refining process required the fire-attribute Flame Grass and the earth-attribute Jiuli Incense. This Flame Grass is about 20 fast 2 grade spirit stones, and Jiuli Xiang is 30 2 grade spirit stones. If you're a spiritual planter, it's definitely much cheaper to grow your own. Regarding Murong Feng's question, Daoist Yu picked up the teapot on the table, took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and continued.
"If you want to refine a weapon, then you need a lot of ores, and if you want to have a high-grade Dao robe, you need to have the silk threads spit out by the high-grade spirit cicadas and good spirit animal skins. If you want to travel outside for a long time, or quickly recover your spiritual power after a battle, you naturally need a high-quality elixir meal made by a cook. Besides, if you don't choose a deputy job to do it, what are you going to do to pay your rent?"
"What? I still have to pay rent for my cultivation here?"
