Chapter 75: The Weakness of Human Nature
Guo Yang and the four returned to the small city with the medicine collection team. A few people didn't dare to hang in front of people, for fear of being detected, so they hid in their respective rooms and practiced the "Turtle Breath Method".
Twenty days later, the four of them could reveal their cultivation realm as they wished. Guo Yang experienced suppressing the cultivation realm to a mortal state without any spiritual power fluctuations, and was full of joy.
"Finally able to move casually, we have to find a way to mix into inner disciples. Guo Yang called Xu Fan, Lian Shan and Wuyao to his room and said in a low voice.
"You say, what to do, we just do it. Lian Shan was bold and said directly.
"I inquired clearly, the low-level disciples of this Xuanyin Sect rarely communicate with each other, and they all cultivate by themselves behind closed doors. Once you reach the fifth level of the Qi refining period, you can apply to become an inner disciple. Guo Yang said in a low voice.
"There's a question, we've only been in for a few days just now, how can we explain that we have reached the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Stage in a short period of time?" Xu Fan said with a frown.
"It's okay, you can just listen to my arrangement when the time comes. Guo Yang spoke, and went out.
......
Half a month later, Guo Yang, Xu Fan, Lian Shan, and Wuyao participated in the entrance test of the Xuanyin Sect.
"Guo Xiaohu, the five spirit root miscellaneous attributes, the cultivation qualification is medium to low, and the cultivation is the fifth layer of the Qi refining period. ”
"Xu Bufan, the attribute of the single thunder spirit root, has excellent cultivation qualifications, and his cultivation is the sixth layer of the Qi refining period. ”
"Lian is like a mountain, the attribute of water and wood dual spirit roots, the cultivation qualification is excellent, and the cultivation is the fifth layer of the qi refining period. ”
"Zhen Wuyao, the three spirit root attributes of Jinmu Fire, medium cultivation qualifications, and cultivation is the sixth layer of the Qi Refining Period. ”
"The above four disciples meet the requirements of the inner disciples of my Xuanyin Sect, and they are from innocent backgrounds, and their origins are clear, and they are all residents of Liangzhou City. Allowed to become an official inner disciple of my Xuanyin Sect!" As a monk in the early stage of foundation building announced, Guo Yang and the other four cheered "ecstatically".
Soon, Guo Yang and the others changed into the clothes of the inner disciples of the Xuanyin Sect. Following the "uncle" in the foundation building period, Guo Yang and the others entered a stone giant city.
This stone city covers an area of seventy or eighty miles, surrounded by a ring of huge stone walls built of 20 zhang high. There is only one city gate, and the tall city gate tower makes Guo Yang and the others sigh, and they can't help but have a new understanding of the strength of the Xuanyin Sect.
The streets of Stone Town are extremely wide, with tall stone buildings on both sides. Guo Yang noticed that most of these stone buildings were courtyards, and occasionally one or two shops appeared in the middle, all of which were buying and selling pills, magic utensils and other things.
"Uncle Shi, the disciples have just started and don't know anything, so I will ask Uncle Shi to cultivate more in the future!" The master of the foundation building period took Guo Yang and the others into a stone courtyard, and when he turned around and was about to leave, Guo Yang hurriedly handed the "Uncle Shi" a storage bag.
The monk of the foundation building period took the storage bag with an indifferent expression, probed it with a little divine sense, and suddenly squeezed out a smile on his cold and thin face, and said, "It's easy to say." I'm in the courtyard of No. 308, and if there is something I don't understand, I can come. In addition, every month you must complete the sect tasks to receive the monthly gift. ”
Waiting for the foundation building period to leave, Guo Yang and the others took a look at their own courtyard for the time being.
It is a very spacious but extremely simple stone courtyard. There were five or six stone houses in the courtyard, and there was nothing in them except a stone bed, a stone table, and two or three small stone benches.
"This is the room for the low-level disciples, and when we reach the foundation building period, we can move into the C-shaped courtyard, and it is said that the conditions are much better. Guo Yang said to Xu Fan and others.
"When you first enter the door, you can't just build a foundation. Xu Fan frowned and said.
"It's okay, if you can directly become an inner disciple, you can directly build a foundation! Guo Yang said with a smile.
"Guo Yang, how did you do that?" asked Wuyao curiously.
"Take advantage of humanity. Guo Yang said with a smile, turned around and entered a stone house.
Seeing this, Xu Fan and the others roughly guessed that it might be that Guo Yang had used elixirs, spirit stones and other things to buy off the relevant people, so easily made them blend into the inner disciples.
Guo Yang and the others rested for a day, Guo Yang explained to Xu Fan and the three of them, and then went out.
He walked around the Stone Town, turning it all but the inner. Guo Yang found that there was very little interaction between the disciples of the Xuanyin Sect, and even if they met in some shops, they didn't talk to each other much most of the time, and everyone had a gloomy face.
Guo Yang observed it for a while, and slowly knew in his heart. Taking advantage of no one's attention, he revealed his cultivation to the ninth layer of the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Period, and flashed into a tall stone building, but it was the internal affairs hall of the Xuanyin Sect.
"Uncle Shi, disciple has given you a greeting!" As soon as Guo Yang entered the door and took a look, he found that there were only three Qi Refining Stage disciples and a Foundation Building Stage monk with an indifferent expression in the huge Internal Affairs Hall. The foundation building period was half-squinted, sitting on a sandalwood chair, as if to recuperate.
Hearing Guo Yang's greeting, the foundation building monk opened his eyes, glanced at Guo Yang, and did not speak.
Guo Yang looked left and right, stretched out his hand and handed the foundation building period monk a jade box, and said respectfully: "Uncle Shi, I went out to practice and do tasks some time ago, and occasionally I had a superb elixir, and I asked Uncle Shi to appraise it." ”
The monk in the foundation building period opened the jade box suspiciously, and found that the inside of the box was made of cold jade silk, and a simple small bottle was placed on the crystal clear silk. Uncorked the bottle, poured out a snow-white pill with a faint crystalline crystal, and swirled in the palm of his hand.
The body of the foundation building period monk suddenly sat upright, and the eyes that looked at Guo Yang changed: "This virtuous nephew, how did you get this superb Feihong Pill?"
"Fei Hong Dan, it sounds a little amazing to me! I found it in a cave when I went out to collect medicine. Originally, there were two, one of which I honored Uncle Zhang Youlong. He said that as long as I built the foundation within three years, he would take me as an apprentice. ”
"Uncle Zhang Youlong, he's a popular candidate for the next head of the sect!, you're quite far-sighted!" The foundation building monk's cold face squeezed out a smile, and said slowly.
"The problem is, I've only just started my career, and if my uncle and grandfather forget me three years later, then I'll give away a superb elixir for nothing. Guo Yang said with a sad face.
"Hehe, I see what you mean. Do you want to build the foundation as soon as possible?" said the foundation monk with a smile
Originally, I was relatively close to Zhuji, but when I was getting started, one of the uncles I was introduced made a mistake about my cultivation realm. Guo Yang said.
"What do you mean?" the foundation-building monk asked, frowning.
"I was originally a cultivator of the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Period, but I was registered as the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Period...... Guo Yang said.
The foundation building period smiled: "What big deal do I do, you just go and change it." ”
Guo Yang was overjoyed, and hurriedly took out another elixir of about a hundred years, and handed it to the monk in the foundation building period with a smile.
The man accepted the elixir without changing his face, called a deacon disciple who was busy on the other side, and ordered: "This little brother's registration information is wrong, you take him to revise it." ”
That deacon disciple only had the eighth layer of cultivation in the Qi refining period. He took Guo Yang into a stone room full of materials.
"What is the name of Senior Brother?" the deacon disciple of the Qi Refining Period asked with a cold face.
"Guo Xiaohu. Tiger of tigers. Guo Yang also said with a cold face.
The deacon's disciples quickly found out the information about "Guo Xiaohu" from a pile of files.
"What's wrong?" the deacon disciple asked.
"Time and cultivation are wrong. I don't know what the hell they're doing, and they're so wrong! I worked hard in the medicine collection team for 15 years, and I actually wrote it for 55 days. I've been an inner disciple for more than three years, but I was only notified yesterday to re-register. Guo Yang said indignantly.
"Really?" the deacon disciple looked at Guo Yang and asked suspiciously.
Guo Yang took out an ordinary Zhuji Dan and said with a smile: "I'm an alchemist, maybe it's because I have been alchemy for a long time and have no time to interact with people, so I'm ignored." ”
When the deacon disciple of the Qi Refining Period saw the Zhuji Dan in Guo Yang's palm, his face changed greatly, he stared at the pill directly, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his breathing was a little heavy.
Seeing this, Guo Yang handed over the Zhuji Dan and said with a smile: "A pill is your pen fee." ”
"Really?" the deacon disciple licked his lips vigorously and looked at Guo Yang in disbelief.
"Don't forget, I've been in the herb collection team for fifteen years, and I'm a good alchemist. Guo Yang said lightly.
......
Three days later, Guo Yang "built the foundation".
He received the clothes of the disciples of the foundation building period and three years of monthly service in the Inner Affairs Hall, and walked out of the Inner Affairs Hall with dignity.
