Volume 1 The Mortal Realm Chapter 6 The Medicine Garden Boy

The time of the night passed quickly, and Lu Chen continued to cultivate until the early morning of the next day, because he stepped into the ranks of monks, although Lu Chen did not sleep all night, he was still full of energy, and he did not feel tired at all.

Following the guidance, Lu Chen really found a small hill between the two peaks, Lu Chen raised his legs and walked a short distance, and then he touched the magic circle of the medicine garden, and was blocked by a white light.

"Lu Chen, a registered disciple of the outer courtyard of the Qingxia Sect, arranged by Deacon Ma, came to the medicine garden on duty!"

"Come in!" As an expressionless voice came from inside, the prohibition in front of him suddenly disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Lu Chen didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly walked in.

Following the path in front of him, Lu Chen stopped in front of a courtyard with a plaque of "Waimen Medicine Garden", which was very large, the size of dozens of acres of fields. Before entering the courtyard, a strong medicinal fragrance came out from inside, which couldn't help but make Lu Chen's spirits lift.

When he got inside, Lu Chen really saw the situation in the park clearly.

The pieces of medicine fields are squarely divided and arranged neatly. The fragrance of flowers, the lush vegetation, the medicinal herbs planted in the medicinal fields, and some strange-looking plants, Lu Chen basically can't be named, but he can feel that they make the whole garden full of aura.

I saw a thin old man standing in the courtyard, who looked about fifty years old, and was looking at Lu Chen.

"Named disciple Lu Chen, I've seen my senior brother!" Lu Chen stepped forward and saluted.

"You're welcome, you can call me Lao Liu, I want to leave the sect to deal with personal matters, I have applied to the sect for a year, during this time, you have to take care of the outer gate medicine garden according to the jade slip I left for you, not only must you maintain the scale unchanged, but also can't make the herbs die, and at the same time, by this time next year, you also need to hand over a certain amount of herbs. There are classics on cultivating medicinal herbs in the house and my personal experience, you have to take care of them carefully, after all, you should be too unfamiliar with the spiritual herbs and elixirs, don't let me die!" Senior Brother Liu instructed seriously.

Lu Chen has only stepped into the immortal cultivation world for two days, and he doesn't know much about his own sect, so he finally had the opportunity to ask for advice, and Lu Chen sincerely asked the old man surnamed Liu for guidance.

"Okay, I'll tell you briefly what I know, I hope it will help my junior brother. The old man said.

"There are more than 10,000 disciples in our Qingxia Sect, of which more than eighty percent are disciples in the Qi refining period, and there are about 2,000 disciples in the foundation building period, and they are the backbone of our faction.

As for the Jindan Zhenren above, there are only a few eight people, among which the highest cultivation is the Sect Master Song Qingping, the Jindan Great Perfection Monk, and the other seven Jindan Zhenren serve as elders to assist him in managing the sect.

As for Yuanying Zhenjun, we also have it in Qingxia Sect, that is, the Taishang Elder Daoyan Ancestor, who has reached the early stage of Yuanying with a body of cultivation, and it is said that he is expected to break through to the middle stage of Yuanying in the past ten years.

His old man has basically been in retreat for many years, and he usually only asks about things in the sect.

Unless there is a major matter related to the life and death of the Qingxia Sect, the idle monks generally can't see him.

In order for our Qi Refining Stage disciples to break through to the Foundation Building Period, they must take the Zhuji Dan, and there are so many disciples in the Qi Refining Stage in the sect, of course, it is impossible for everyone to be qualified to take the Zhuji Dan! Only those who are the best and most qualified inner disciples will get this opportunity.

Therefore, every three years, the sect will organize a big competition, and only disciples under the age of thirty are eligible to participate, and a series of selections and selections will be conducted, and the fierce competition can be imagined.

Basically, only disciples who have cultivated to the ninth level of the Qi Refining Period or the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Period can stand out from the crowd and enter the inner gate to obtain the qualification to take the Tsukidan.

The hundreds of inner disciples who were strictly selected in this way, after taking the Zhuji Dan, only half of them were able to enter the foundation building period. More of them are mana that goes further and continues to stay in the Qi refining period.

So naturally, the disciples within the sect were divided into four classes.

The lowest level is the miscellaneous disciples of the outer gate and the outer courtyard, not only do they usually have to do a lot of chores, they have the least time to cultivate, but they also have the lowest status in the sect.

Slightly better than them are the outer disciples, who can distribute three spirit stones every month.

A higher status than the outer disciples is the average inner disciple, who can distribute ten spirit stones every month, and can move into the cave mansion in the middle of the main peak of the Qingxia Sect to cultivate, where the spiritual energy is much richer than that of the outer gate, and the speed of cultivation is much faster.

And the one with the highest status and the best treatment is the inner disciple who has broken through to the foundation building period. If you don't enter the foundation, you will end up being ants, and the inner disciples who successfully build the foundation can not take on any chores, they only need to concentrate on cultivation, and every month the sect will issue fifty spirit stones to help them accelerate their cultivation.

In addition to these disciples, there are also sect elders who hold the true power in the sect.

These elders are all served by Jindan Zhenren, like Elder Lu Zhi, who manages our outer gate, is a monk in the late Jindan period, our sect has a custom, as long as you are promoted to Jindan Zhenren, you can get the position of elder of the sect.

After all, it was the Yuanying Ancestor and Elder Jindan who really decided the life and death of the sect. It was precisely because of their existence that other hostile sects did not dare to bully them, and the Qingxia Sect was able to stand as one of the seven great immortal cultivation sects in Dongzhou. Otherwise, it would have been destroyed countless times by those enemies with high mana.

This gave Lu Chen a clear understanding of the environment he was in and the situation in the door, and it would also be of great help to him in getting along with other fellow disciples in the future. Lu Chen wrote down all of them with his heart, and thanked the senior brother surnamed Liu deeply.

Old man Liu explained a few precautions for managing this garden one after another, returned to one of the wooden houses and hurriedly cleaned up, then left the medicine garden without looking back, and galloped away.

After Lu Chen watched this Senior Brother Liu go away, he randomly chose a wooden house and cleaned it up, used it as his bedroom, and then climbed into the bed and fell asleep.

When Lu Chen woke up energetically on the second day, his path of cultivating immortals was officially begun.
