Chapter Twenty-Four: Inner Disciples and New Exercises

"Finally entered the foundation building period" Xiao Linzi felt the change in himself, and couldn't help but be a little excited, Xiao Linzi rushed at a stone in the distance, and the index finger of his right hand pointed hard, and a spiritual power rushed out from the index finger, hitting the stone like an arrow, leaving a finger-deep mark on it.

"The release of spiritual power is indeed a sign of the foundation building period"

Xiao Linzi said to himself.

Xiao Linzi returned to the medicine garden with excitement, Xiao Linzi knew that he would leave this medicine garden after he went to the Hall of Merit to complete his inner disciple registration, and he had lived in this medicine garden for more than three years.

He has a deep affection for this medicine garden, if he can, Xiao Linzi hopes that he is still cultivating in this medicine garden, but Xiao Linzi knows that this is impossible, and after he leaves, there will be other Qi refining stage disciples who will come here to water the medicine garden.

And that disciple will also live in his own hut, he will also be very excited because of the first rain, he will also cook in that small stove, and there will also be a senior brother named Sun Yao who usually doesn't meet at all.

The one who should leave is still to leave, Xiao Linzi sighed, put the futon of hay he had woven three years ago into the storage bag, and then Xiao Linzi walked out of the room and closed the door, letting the house slowly wait for its next owner.

Xiao Linzi felt that he was leaving to say hello to Senior Brother Sun Yao, Xiao Linzi walked to Senior Brother Sun Yao's door, gently buckled the door, and said, "Senior brother, do you have time, I'll say goodbye to you"

After a while, Sun Yao opened the door.

Xiao Linzi entered Sun Yao's room for the first time, and saw that the furnishings in Sun Yao's room were unusually simple, except for a futon, there was only one bed left.

"Farewell, where are you going?"

Sun Yao asked, to be honest, Xiao Linzi has taken good care of the medicine garden in the past three years, and the medicine garden has never been broken when watered once every three days, Sun Yao has been cultivating with confidence in the past three years, and the medicine garden has been harvested every year for the past three years, and after handing in the medicinal materials prescribed by the sect, there can be a lot left each time.

To be honest, Sun Yao didn't want Xiao Linzi to leave, "Senior brother, I got a foundation building pill in the sect competition, and I just entered the foundation building period today, and I will report to the Hall of Merit later, and I may rarely return to the medicine garden in the future."

Xiao Linzi said to Sun Yao.

"You're in the foundation building period?"

Sun Yao was very surprised when he heard that Xiao Linzi had entered the foundation building period, and when he thought that Xiao Linzi had entered the foundation building period by taking the foundation building pill, he could only feel that Xiao Linzi was lucky, "Senior brother, you have entered the foundation building period, you really can't do these chores here, go to the Hall of Merit to report and see where I can divide you, no matter where you go, your own cultivation is the most important."

Sun Yao said to Xiao Linzi.

"I see, brother"

Xiao Linzi listened, "Okay, you go, they will send another disciple from the Qi refining period to take care of the medicine garden."

Sun Yao said.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Xiao Linzi left the medicine garden to report to the Hall of Merit, Xiao Linzi knew that his future path to cultivating immortals would become more and more exciting.

Xiao Linzi arrived at the Hall of Merit, and there were many disciples in the Hall of Merit staring at the Jade Pillar of Merit, looking for a sect task that suited him, and seeing this scene, Xiao Linzi seemed to have returned to the time when he first entered the sect.

Xiao Linzi found the sleepy old man in the foundation building period who had handled his identity as an outer disciple, and sure enough, the old man was sleeping again at this time, "Senior brother, senior brother"

Xiao Linzi woke up the old man, "Who?

The old man was not annoyed when he was awakened, obviously he had been woken up by other disciples quite a few times, and he was used to it.

"Senior brother, I am a new disciple in the foundation building period, come to ask how to handle the identity of this inner disciple."

Xiao Linzi asked, "Oh, are you a new foundation building stage disciple?"

The old man asked, "Yes, I just entered the foundation building period this morning."

Xiao Linzi returned truthfully, and the old man stared at Xiao Linzi a few times and said, "Well, it is true that I have just entered the foundation building period, and the realm has not yet been fully consolidated, and the procedures for the inner disciples are also handled by me, give me your identity jade plate."

The old man said.

Xiao Linzi took out the jade plate from the storage bag and put it in front of the old man, the old man picked up the jade card and looked at it and said, "Your name is Yang Lin, isn't it the sect that Li Yulang led you into three years ago?"

"It's the sect that Senior Brother Li brought me into three years ago"

Xiao Linzi replied.

"Okay, junior brother, in three years, it will be like a foundation building period from a mortal, and the cultivation speed is fast enough."

The old man was amazed.

"I just participated in the sect competition, and I got a foundation building pill by luck, and then I entered the foundation building period with the help of the pill."

Xiao Linzi replied with some modesty, that Tsukidan is still lying quietly in Xiao Linzi's storage bag.

"Even with the help of pills, it is commendable to enter the foundation building period in three years."

The old man was amazed, and then the old man took out a blank jade plate and engraved the word Yang Lin, which was very different from the white jade plate in the Qi refining period.

"Put a drop of your essence blood on it"

The old man said, Xiao Linzi squeezed out a drop of essence blood from his left index finger and dripped it on it, and the jade plate sucked the essence blood into it.

"Okay, this is your new identity jade card in the future, and the back of the jade card will show your merit points"

The old man said, "As for how to get merit points, what is the use of merit points, you can go to the stone tablet in front of the merit jade pillar and take a look."

After the old man finished speaking, he took out a book, flipped through it, and said, "Now let's see where you are going."

Xiao Linzi waited on the side and did not interject.

"Senior Brother Yang, there are still three places in the sect that are not guarded by disciples during the foundation building period, one is a small spirit stone mine, one is a small spirit beast garden of the sect, and the last place is the demon suppression tower where the sect imprisons the disciples of the Demon Sect."

After the old man finished speaking, he waited for Xiao Linzi to choose.

"Senior brother, this Spirit Beast Garden is fine, but this Spirit Stone Mine, the Demon Suppression Tower is not a small material to let me go as a disciple of the foundation building period?"

Yang Lin said.

"Senior brother, all the spirit stones in this small spirit stone mine are dug out, that is, thousands of spirit stones, the miners in it are all mortals, it is useless for them to ask for spirit stones, you used to supervise their mining, such a small spirit stone mine, the sect really can't send an elder of Jindan to watch it."

The old man said.

"As for the Demon Suppression Tower, there are naturally elders of the sect guarding it, and there is more than one, but there are many cells in it, and the elders can't monitor them one by one, so you need a few disciples from the foundation building period to take care of them, rest assured that the disciples of the Demon Sect inside are all imprisoned by the elders with spiritual power, and they are no different from mortals."

The old man said.

After listening to the old man, Xiao Linzi began to think about where he should go, "Although the spirit stone mine is small, it is a spirit stone after all, and the number of spirit stones in it has probably been checked a long time ago, and I am afraid that it will not work if you want to make some benefits, as for the Demon Suppression Tower, it is too dangerous, by the way, Qianru Picture will come to Luoxi Sect just for the disciples of the Demon Sect in this Demon Suppression Tower?"

Xiao Linzi thought of Qianruhua's taking advantage of the absence of Taishang in the sect to sneak into the Luoxi Sect, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the Demon Suppression Tower was dangerous.

The old man saw that Xiao Linzi thought for a long time and didn't decide where to go, so he said, "Senior brother, I suggest you don't go to the Spirit Beast Garden, the things there are too cumbersome, although there are disciples in the Qi refining period who help you do most of the chores, but it will still delay you a lot of cultivation time."

Xiao Linzi chose to go to the spirit stone mine to protect his life rather than benefits.

"Senior brother, I decided to go to the Spirit Stone Mine."

Xiao Linzi said to the old man.

"Okay, junior brother, I'll go through the formalities for you"

After the old man finished speaking, he wrote Yang Lin's name on the book, and then said, "The town guards the spirit stone mine, you need to hand over all the excavated spirit stones to the sect every year, and the sect will notice how many spirit stones have been dug up, and I hope that the junior brother will not be greedy for ink, and the town guards the spirit stone mine, offering five spirit stones every month, and three Bigu Dan, but you need to bear the responsibility of guarding the miners, junior brother, you are quite clear."

The old man said.

"Yes, I hear you clearly"

Xiao Linzi said, "Senior brother, the location of that spirit stone mine is just north of the sect, it's called 'Xiaoshan Mine', junior brother will go to the mine tomorrow."

The old man said, "Okay, thank you, brother, I know"

After Xiao Linzi finished speaking, he took his new identity jade plate and went out, from now on, Yang Lin is an inner disciple of the Luoxi Sect.

Xiao Linzi walked to the merit jade pillar, and sure enough, he saw a stone tablet, the stone tablet was engraved with many words, Xiao Linzi looked at it and knew what the task on the merit jade pillar was, and also knew how to use the merit points, the task is divided into sect tasks and personal tasks, the sect task is naturally issued by the sect, and you can get the rewards explained in the task when you complete it, and the rewards are received in the merit hall, some rewards are spirit stones, magic weapons, etc., and some are merit points.

As for personal tasks, only the elders of the sect or the Taishang can issue them, let the disciples below complete them for them, and provide rewards for those who complete them in a private capacity, and everything about the rewards must be explained in the task.

And merit points, you can exchange for many things you want in the treasure house on the second floor of the hall of merit, the spirit stone can be exchanged for one merit point, as for other treasures, the merit points required according to their value are also different.

After Xiao Linzi learned about the Hall of Merit, he felt that he couldn't just cultivate, but also needed to go out to do some tasks, on the one hand, to earn some merit points and rewards, and on the other hand, he could improve his strength.

After doing this, Xiao Linzi decided to go to Mo Ziqing's cave mansion, Mo Ziqing said back then, he entered the foundation building period, and he accepted himself as an apprentice, the thigh of a Jindan elder, Xiao Linzi decided to hug it.

At this time, Lao Jiu spoke, "You have reached the foundation building period, the wood system and fire exercises you want to cultivate, I have finally put it all together for you, you must know that I am just a wisp of remnant soul, there are many things that I can't remember clearly, I have wasted a lot of effort to remember these two exercises."

Xiao Linzi heard Lao Jiu's complaint and said, "It's hard work, Lao Jiu"

After speaking, Xiao Linzi looked at the two exercises in his sea of knowledge, one of which was called "The Treasure Book of the Blue Sky", and the other was called "The Complete Record of the Xuanyuan Divine Clan".

"If those two guys knew, I would have known their exercises, I don't know what their faces would be, I really want to see my old friend's green face."

Lao Jiu's words made Xiao Linzi inexplicable.
