On the edge of the island, at the junction of the beach and the woods, stands a simple wooden torii.

It is said that it is an archway, but in fact it is just a doorway made of three rough logs. On the upper edge of the doorway is a plaque, also a rough wooden board, on which a simple and heavy word 'Dao' is written in black ink.

According to the family rules of the first family, all children must be sent to the Taoist courtyard after they reach the age of six and can take care of themselves, and receive the most orthodox cultivation inheritance of the family. In the Taoist Academy, according to the children's spiritual roots, talents, preferences, interests, etc., or cultivation, or physical cultivation, or alchemy, or talismans, or refining, or planting, each has its own direction of development.

Three middle-aged men with mottled hair stood in front of the doorway, they were dressed in simple linen robes, their hands in their sleeves, and they were quietly looking at the First Supreme and Yin Blood Song.

"Dao Elder of this family!" The First Supreme looked at the three middle-aged men and whispered to Yin Xuege about the situation of the Dao Academy.

Within the first family, among the many clansmen who are responsible for the power of the family, the first generation of ancestors is the three deities of heaven, earth and man. They rule over the entire First Family, like earthly emperors, and control all the power of the family. Whether it is the sacrifice of ancestors, the promotion and deposition of the clansmen, the decision to fight foreign wars, etc., they are all in the hands of these three ancestors.

Under these three ancestors, the most famous of the second generation of clansmen is Sanding. They are the first summer, Mr. Liding, the first businessman, Mr. Chaoding, and the first week, Mr. Zhuding. Sanding served as an assistant in the first family and was responsible for the specific details of the family.

Except for Mr. Sanding. Among the second generation of the clan, there is also Mr. Mitsuki. Unlike Mr. Sanding, who is in charge of the overall situation and is responsible for all specific family affairs, Mr. Sanguang is the first day, the first month, and the first star, and they are responsible for the family's internal affairs.

For example, the family Taoist Academy, which cultivates the younger generations of the family and selects the elite of good talents, is the top priority that Mr. Sanguang is responsible for.

The three people in front of him who had an obscure breath, were wearing gray and white linen clothes, and they looked ordinary and even a bit like three old farmers in the mountains, who were Mr. Sanguang of the first family, Sun Moon Xing!

Yin Xuege looked at Mr. Sanguang curiously. Able to take charge of the housekeeping of the first family. These three are also high-ranking figures. But they don't have the majesty and domineering that a person with great power should have, but they are full of a kind and kind old man's demeanor.

Seeing Yin Xuege and the First Supreme approaching, the first day who stood in the middle of the three smiled gently.

"Supreme, is this the kid?" squinted on Day One. He nodded slowly: "Mortal products, Taoist products, genuine products, immortal products, and holy products are five immortal roots." There can be genuine fairy roots. The earth immortal Dao fruit is not expected. qualifications, not bad. Even if I don't know the real fairy root, there are also ten grades, and each grade has ten degrees. What is his true spiritual root, and how many degrees?"

The first respectful cough, he smiled brightly at Mr. Sanguang, and then lowered his voice: "My son, of course, the highest ten degrees of the true spiritual root, absolutely perfect marks!"

The corners of Yin Xuege's mouth twitched, and he squinted at the First Supreme. This guy is really good at acting, although he doesn't know what the level of his spiritual root is, and they didn't mention it to themselves on the first day, but Yin Xuege bets that he is definitely not just a real spiritual root.

On the first day, he crooked his mouth, and he looked at the First Supreme a little helplessly: "Supreme, this is related to the question of how we teach Blood Song." You are still good to tell us the truth, what is the level of his spiritual root, and how many degrees is there?"

The spiritual root is divided into five grades, which is related to a monk's step-by-step cultivation, and when there is no great opportunity, there is no adventure against the sky, according to the normal cultivation progress, the highest level that can be achieved. For example, if you have a mortal spiritual root, you can cultivate to the Jindan realm at most, a Dao spiritual root can achieve the Great Perfection of the Yuan Shen at most, and it is extremely difficult to ascend, and if you want to ascend, you can achieve an earth immortal, and the heavenly immortal is also hopeful.

And each spiritual root is divided into ten degrees, each division is divided into ten degrees, the first class is the lowest, the tenth degree is the highest, the lowest degree is one degree, and the tenth degree is the highest. This indicates the difference between the superior and inferior spiritual roots of the same grade, which is related to the cultivator who has the same spiritual root, who has the fastest cultivation speed.

Generally speaking, everyone cultivates under the same cultivation resources in accordance with the rules, if it takes a thousand years for a first-class true spiritual root to attain the Great Dao, a second-class one-degree genuine spiritual root will only take nine hundred and fifty years. By analogy, a tenth-grade and ten-degree true spiritual root may only take three hundred years to soar to the upper realm and achieve an immortal body!

Therefore, the division of the same grade and degree is also very important, which is related to how many resources the family will invest in you and how much effort it will spend on you! Three hundred years can achieve the genius of the earth immortal, and a thousand years can only achieve the good talent of the earth immortal, this obviously cannot be the same grade in terms of treatment.

On the first day, I asked the First Supreme this question very seriously, and the First Supreme's face suddenly drooped.

He squinted at Mr. Miko, and his squishy face hung up again. He raised his head, and the corners of his mouth provoked a sneer of disdain: "My First Supreme Son, he is a true spiritual root, of course he is the highest tenth grade and ten degrees! ”

After a slight pause, the First Supreme said coldly: "As long as the Dao Academy teaches my son how to cultivate seriously, his daily consumption, whether it is clothing service, flying sword magic weapons, pill talismans, or even warm bedding maids, I will arrange them all by myself!"

Mr. Sanguang's face twitched at the same time, and he almost gritted his teeth on the first day and looked at the First Supreme: "Supreme, the rules of the Taoist Academy, no maids are allowed!"

The First Supreme's eyes widened as if he suddenly realized, he patted his forehead vigorously, and laughed embarrassedly: "Ah, I forgot about this stubble! Who made me never stay in the Dao Courtyard in my life? Ha, haha, haha! Okay, my son has been handed over to the three uncles, if he is wronged here, don't blame me for demolishing the Dao Academy!"

daxiao said three times, and the first supreme took out a golden jade cicada pendant from his sleeve and hung it around Yin Xuege's neck. Then he turned into a long wind and roared into the sky, rolling up the clouds for several miles, and left all the way through the clouds and fog.

Mr. Mitsuko was so angry that his nose and face were crooked, and they angrily looked in the direction where their first self-esteem had gone, and stomped their feet fiercely. But obviously, they didn't have anything else to do with the First Supreme, so they could only sigh helplessly and set their eyes on Yin Xuege.

Yin Xuege stood there quietly, his fingers gently flicking the golden jade cicada that the First Supreme had just hung on him.

This golden jade cicada was the size of a baby's fist, several times larger than the silver jade cicada that Yin Xuege had once had. The golden jade is almost translucent. There are faint purple clouds flying in the cicada's body. Yin Xuege's skin came into contact with him, and he only felt an extremely moist and milky heat seeping out of the jade cicada, constantly nourishing his body and soul, making him extraordinarily energetic.

This is a top-notch treasure. Yin Blood Song couldn't even identify his rank.

In short, when Mr. Sanguang saw this golden jade cicada with patches of purple clouds. Their faces all turned very strange.

He sighed softly. On the first day, he walked up to Yin Xuege's side, and he grabbed Yin Xuege's hand and cut his fingertips with his fingernails. A drop of blood was dropped on the golden jade cicada. A crisp cicada chirp sounded, and the golden jade cicada turned into a cloud of purple-gold light mist and integrated into Yin Xuege's body, Yin Xuege suddenly felt a burst of comfort around him, and his spirit was instantly full to the extreme.

"This is!" The first day hesitated for a while, then shook his head with a wry smile: "Before the ancient times, my first family had a good relationship with the Jin Feng Sanren, one of the Great Luo Golden Immortals of the Yingfu Dojo. This golden jade cicada is a drop of the essence blood of the golden wind scattered people, containing infinite mysteries, and he is also the mother of all the golden wind cicadas of my first family, which is extremely precious. ”

Gently patted Yin Xuege's shoulder, and said in a deep voice on the first day: "All along, this Da Luo Jin Wind Cicada has either been kept by the head of the first family, or it has been hung on the heir of this family. So you, don't let anyone else, see it. ”

Can it only be kept by the head of the family or the heir of the head of the family?Yin Xuege looked down at the parts of the Da Luo Jin Wind Cicada that had integrated into his body, and then nodded slowly. He's not stupid, he doesn't say such things to provoke jealousy on himself. Yin Xuege clearly knew his position, for the first family, he was just an outlier, an outsider, and a half-demon barrier!

He hasn't admitted that he is the son of the First Supreme, he hasn't admitted that he is a member of the First Family, and he doesn't want to cause unexpected trouble to himself because of some treasures of the First Family.

"Come on, the Taoist Academy is the foundation of my first family, and it is the most important thing. On the first day, he took Yin Xuege's hand and wanted to take him into the Taoist Academy.

But Yin Xuege shook his hand and shook off the palm of the first day, he put his hands behind his back, looked up at the first day and said coldly: "I'm not a five or six-year-old doll, I can walk by myself, and Mr. Lao Sanguang is leading the way in front." ”

The first day, the first month, and the first star were stunned at the same time, and then the first day shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I forgot, you are not one of those dolls who reached the age of six and was sent to the Taoist Academy." Hey, Bloodsong Kid, how old are you?"

Yin Xuege raised his eyebrows, reported his age, and then said coldly: "Isn't it too old?"

Mr. Sanguang looked at each other and said nothing. Yin Xuege's tone was very impulsive, and there were thorns in every word! What else could they do but shake their heads and smile bitterly? They could only explain that in the days to come, the teachers of the Daoist Academy must be careful to deal with this little doll.

The son of the First Supreme, when he thought of Yin Xuege's identity, Mr. Sanguang's scalp was swollen. Moreover, the little guy Yin Xuege obviously has no sense of identity with the first family, and his attitude is so bad, he thinks that the future of the Daoist Academy will not be very peaceful.

With a wry smile, he nodded on the first day: "How old are you? How can you say an old word? Come on, come on, come with us." This courtyard occupies a vast area, there are many branches, and the total number of brothers and sisters in each courtyard is more than 50,000, and it will take you a little time to get used to life here. ”

Five, fifty thousand? Yin Xuege's body stiffened, and he stood still for a long time without moving! How many clansmen are there in the Yin clan's childish hall? The total number of people in the entire Yin clan is just over 100,000, and there are actually more than 50,000 apprentices in the Taoist Academy of the first family?

On the first day, he looked back at the stunned Yin Xuege in surprise, he blinked his eyes, and then suddenly patted his forehead: "Oh, the apprentices of the Daoist Academy are actually more than that. Some of the older ones have already been sent out to train. You may be comparing the situation of your Yin clan with my first family? Don't forget, the blood demon clan is struggling to reproduce, the first family, hey, hehe. ”

Yin Xuege exhaled heavily, and then laughed at himself secretly.

The blood demon clan has a long lifespan and an extremely fast increase in strength, and correspondingly, the ability to reproduce offspring is greatly weakened. Take the Yin people as an example. Since Yin Tian has never followed. In hundreds of years, the Yin people have only multiplied for four generations!

And what about pure human beings? Hundreds of years, even if it's twenty generations, that's twenty or thirty generations. With the status of the first family in the Eastern cultivation world. The total number of their people is at least more than a million. Apprentice in the monastery. Isn't that how it should be?

It's just a special case in a special period, right?

Anyway, Yin Xuege had seen a lot of records of similar situations from those classics of the Evil Bone Dao, and it was still very easy for human monks below the Yuan Infant Stage to reproduce offspring. It's no different from ordinary people. However, after the achievement of the Yuan Infant, their ability to reproduce offspring immediately declined to the point that they were no different from those of the Blood Demon.

Putting aside these messy thoughts in his mind, Yin Xuege calmed down, followed behind Mr. Sanguang, and walked into the Taoist courtyard of the first family step by step.

Behind the humble doorway was a spacious, clean boulevard, and the pavement paved with gravel mixed with small shells had just been sprinkled with clear water, so it was clean and dust-free when you stepped on, and there was a 'rustling' sound under your feet as you walked.

After walking three or five miles, there was a voice in the woods by the roadside.

A few young men in white linen sermon robes are leading a group of six or seven-year-old children to lie on the ridge at the edge of the medicine garden, teaching them how to identify these medicinal herbs.

At a glance, there are dozens of such medicine gardens and spiritual gardens, and in each place, these white-robed young men with a dozen children are there to teach the skills of identifying medicinal herbs. These white-robed young men explained carefully, and those children listened carefully, so they looked like the Taoist immortal clan's preaching and teaching.

Yin Xuege looked at those white-robed youths with great emotion, their status was equivalent to the deacons of the Yin Clan's Child's Palace, right? But compared with the fierce and vicious deacons of the Yin Clan's Child's Palace, these white-robed youths had a gentle attitude and were full of laughter when they explained, which was much more amiable than those deacons.

"These white-robed teachers, their spiritual roots are slightly poor, which is roughly the cultivation of the primordial gods, in exchange for a thousand years of luck. Unless there is a big opportunity, it is difficult to ascend to immortality. They are also not good at fighting and fighting, and they can't achieve family Dao soldiers, but they are smart and intelligent, patient and gentle, so they happen to act as a junior teacher in the Taoist Academy to lead these little guys. ”

On the first day, he looked at those white-robed youths and said softly: "Everyone in the first family will make the best use of everything. Unless it's too unbearable, the family won't waste any of their talents. As long as you work hard, there will always be a day when you will get ahead in your family. ”

"Too unbearable, for example, someone?" Yin Blood smiled meaningfully.

The first day smiled awkwardly with the other two gentlemen, and the first day quickly changed the subject.

"Let's not talk about these basic courses on identifying herbs. You settle down, receive your apprentice's costume and a set of tools, and then choose a place to live. And then the senior teacher will arrange the course for you, what do you think?"

After saying a word to Yin Xuege with a smile, he continued to ask him on the first day: "Xuege, how is your cultivation now?"

The blood demon's cultivation methods were very different from those of orthodox cultivators, and in the early stage, the blood demon relied on frantically devouring essence blood to improve its strength. Their demonic power is vast, and their strength is comparable to that of a Jindan stage monk, but before they truly condense the Blood Pill, other monks can't see how powerful a Blood Demon really is. After all, they are demon clans, and their cultivation methods are really very different from those of orthodox monks.

Looking at the amiable face on the first day, Yin Xuege smiled innocently and innocently.

"I've just tried to refine my body. Well, I've just refined the membrane, and the muscles haven't started yet. ”

This is the truth, Yin Xuege looked at the first day, and wondered in his heart that he had indeed just refined his skin. Of course, he would never tell him that the exercises he used on the first day were the Nine Turns of the Hongmeng Blood Divine Dao.

Mr. Sanguang was stunned at the same time, they looked up and down Yin Xuege, and after a long time, they exhaled a little annoyed on the first day: "Just started to temper the flesh? This, isn't this the kung fu of a five- or six-year-old doll to lay the foundation? Even some descendants of the family, when they were in their mother's womb, this body had been tempered." ”

Yin Xuege's heart suddenly twitched slightly, the descendants of the First Family, they began to refine their flesh when they were in their mother's womb?This group of perverted guys, how did they do it? Is this the gap between the Five Great Immortal Clans of the Eastern Cultivation Realm and the Shili of the other cultivation world?

sighed helplessly, and said in a deep voice on the first day: "Then, let's start with the basics." First refine the physical body and lay the foundation, then cultivate the true qi and turn the acquired into innate, take a lot of elixir jade milk, and shorten the process as much as possible! You have already done it many years later than the other clansmen!"

With a long sigh, Mr. Sanguang continued to walk towards the Taoist courtyard with Yin Blood Song.

All the way forward for more than ten miles, the end of the woods in front of the exposed a huge valley surrounded by green mountains, there are all kinds of simple and elegant palaces and pavilions, etc., southeast and northwest everywhere, there are also four 36-story towers with a height of one hundred and eight zhang.

The wind blew, and there was a crisp wind chime. A large group of teenagers and children in various Taoist robes were walking briskly back and forth. The wind also brought the sound of chanting, which was a child who had just entered the Taoist monastery reciting the "Huang Ting Jing".

On the first day, he beckoned not far away, and suddenly a handsome young man in a cyan robe took up more than a dozen afterimages and quickly ran towards this side. Yin Xuege noticed that the young man had a pair of bamboo horses tied to his legs, and it was obvious that this thing was helping him run quickly.

"This is the new clan, the first blood song, take him through the admission procedures. ”

Yin Xuege frowned, he raised his voice, and said in a deep voice: "Yin Xuege!"

Day One and the other two gentlemen raised their eyebrows, they groaned for a while, and then nodded at the same time.

"Yin Xuege!Very good, lead him to the formalities!" (To be continued......)
