Entering the valley, Zhou Nan carefully looked at everything in front of him. He has an indifferent temperament and likes a secluded courtyard, but he doesn't want his house to become a vegetable market, noisy and noisy. Therefore, the choice of accommodation should not be too arbitrary, and it must be a little particular.

Passing through the canyon, all the way deep, in a corner of the deepest part, Zhou Nan's eyes lit up, he nodded with satisfaction, and chose a smaller room. The room is equipped with a small courtyard full of flowers and plants.

Pushing open the door, Zhou Nan walked in. The room has good light transmission, the window is directly facing the garden, and the interior is elegantly furnished, simple and fresh without losing a breath of atmosphere. It can be seen that the person who designed it still took a lot of effort.

There is an incense burner in the middle hall, which is burning with unknown incense, and white smoke rises, constantly wandering in the hall, making the whole room, as if it is a fairyland on earth. Just a sip makes people feel comfortable for a while.

In the world, this is the treatment of emperors and generals, officials and nobles. But in the Xuanhuo Sect, it was commonplace. For new disciples, there is one room for each person. It can be seen how wealthy the immortal cultivators are. At least above these mundane things, there is no shortage at all. This also indirectly proves the nobility of immortal cultivators compared to mundane mortals.

In the back hall, Zhou Nan found a secret room, but he couldn't open it. Back in the middle hall, Zhou Nan sat down on the chair and put down the package, the long sword. casually took out the books sent by Yang Cheng, and with a fixed gaze, he read them carefully.

The book is only a dozen thin pages, but it contains a lot of things. Everything in it is very new to Zhou Nan. He was very interested in recording some common knowledge in the mind cultivation world. For a while, I was intoxicated.

After a stick of incense, Zhou Nan closed the book. I still feel that the aftertaste is endless. Everything in the book constantly rushed his nerves, making him unable to calm down for a long time, and he was a little impulsive with excitement.

With his eyes slightly closed, Zhou Nan carefully pondered everything he saw. Every sentence is deeply imprinted in the depths of my mind. These are all good words, if you don't grasp them early, you will definitely suffer.

Zhou Nan found that since he had the cultivation of the third layer of Qiling, his memory had also become better, and some things could even be forgotten and magical. It can be seen that in his current realm, the magic of immortal cultivators has been manifested. As the cultivation improves, the benefits will be even more.

After thinking about it for a few minutes, Zhou Nan hid the package and the long sword, closed the door, and walked out of the courtyard. He took out a knife and carved his name on the gate of the courtyard to show that it was inhabited.

In the Xuanhuo Sect, the disciples are divided into, miscellaneous disciples, outer disciples, inner disciples, and core disciples. And above are the deacons and elders of the temples. In the sect, the most transcendent status are the two Jindan ancestors. Sect Master, Murong Changtian, Great Elder, Geng Qingnian. They are all mysterious characters that are rare to see in ten years, and many disciples will not be able to contact them in their lifetime.

Miscellaneous disciples, in charge of the secular property of the Xuanhuo Sect, have a very high status among mortals. The outer disciples are all disciples who can cultivate, and the spiritual roots meet the cultivation requirements. Responsible for all sundries and tasks in the sect.

Inner disciples, good cultivation talent, high spiritual root potential, just focus on cultivation, don't worry about sundries. But when the sect is in need, it must contribute. They are the true hope of the sect in the future.

The core disciples, only the most gifted and the inner disciples of the foundation building monks before the age of thirty, can enjoy this honor. Basically, after a few decades, the most subordinate core disciple will be an elder. He even has the right to compete for the position of suzerain, the Great Elder. It can be seen how wonderful these people are.

After all, the territory of the Xuanhuo Sect was so large, spanning five thousand miles. There are so many subject countries, with a population of hundreds of millions. Even if the person with a spiritual root is only one in a thousand, but there are many people, there are many of them.

Screen out the disciples who are talented and have spiritual roots. and then use strict means to pick bones in eggs and demons in geniuses. How can the core disciples found be ordinary? At the worst, they are all first-class talents.

The deacon of the sect, all the foundation building monks. These people, it is difficult to break through in their cultivation normally, so they lighten their minds and give up their cultivation. It mainly manages the normal affairs of the sect, maintains the operation of the sect, and has a very high status.

The elders of each hall are the cornerstone of the sect. Generally ignoring mundane things and concentrating on cultivation, there is a possibility of further progress. It is the cornerstone of the sect's existence. The most determined, the most powerful.

Sect Master, Grand Elder. It is the biggest backer of the sect. It was only because of their existence that the sect was able to gain a foothold. In the Yan Kingdom Immortal Cultivation Realm, it is precisely because of them that the Xuanhuo Sect is a powerful force under the Seven Great Sects.

Now, Zhou Nan is going to the Zongwu Palace. As a new outer disciple, he needs to receive outer disciple clothing, identity tokens, sect benefits, and regular tasks. These are the obligations of every disciple of the sect, and they cannot be shirked.

Although he had the cultivation of the third layer of Qiling, except for the half-hung fireball technique, Zhou Nan had not learned any spells, and in desperation, he could only walk to the Zongwu Palace. Immortal cultivators are mixed up with him, but it's really a wretch! Even Zhou Nan himself is also depressed.

Fortunately, before becoming an immortal cultivator, Zhou Nan was in good health, strong in martial arts, and good in light body kung fu. Coupled with the cultivation of the third layer of Qiling, the body is more tenacious and powerful. It's not slow.

Otherwise, climb up to the Zongwu Hall like a snail, when will it be big? After a stick of incense, he climbed over several small hills, and without much effort, Zhou Nan climbed halfway up Ziyang Mountain and came to the front of the Zongwu Palace.

The Zongwu Hall is a three-storey quaint attic that is as high as 20 zhang, and the white boulder of 10 zhang high stands in front of the building, and there are three dragons flying and phoenixes dancing on it, and the vermilion characters are strong and powerful 'Zongwu Palace'.

Looking at this magnificent scene, Zhou Nan couldn't help but stop. After a long while, he came back to his senses, collected his thoughts, and walked into the main hall with a calm step.

The interior of the Zongwu Hall is very empty and lonely, and there is a yellow light curtain ten zhang square in the center. It was filled with dense small print, and it was filled with all kinds of tasks. It was published for all the disciples to watch and screen.

On each side of the main hall, there is a counter. There were two disciples in Tsing Yi standing, handing out the things of the new disciples. Zhou Nan walked over, took a look, and honestly lined up in the back and waited quietly.

After a while, the people in front of him had finished receiving their things, and it was his turn.

"Name?" The disciple in Tsing Yi didn't even look at Zhou Nan, but asked lightly.

"I've met Senior Brother, Senior Brother Zhou Nan, and I'm here to handle the related matters of the new outer disciples. Not the slightest bit angry at the attitude of the disciple in Tsing Yi, Zhou Nan said politely.

Hearing this, the disciple in Tsing Yi didn't reply, just wiped it on the storage bag at hand. I took out a lot of things out of thin air. Throw it to Zhou Nan. The roster was then marked.

"There are three sets of green clothes for the new disciples of the outer sect, an identity token, a bottle of marrow washing pill, a spirit pill, a pack of qi practice, and a low-grade magic weapon. When you run out of clothes, you can pick them up. If the identity token is lost, it needs to be handled in time. The pill is sent out once every two months, and you come here to pick it up on time. New disciples don't have to do tasks for the first three months. But after that, the relevant tasks must be completed every two months. Violators will be dealt with according to the rules. The required exercises can be obtained at the Scripture Pavilion. That's all you need to pay attention to, you go down first. The disciple of Tsing Yi finished a long paragraph with a few mechanical skills, and waved his hand to signal Zhou Nan to retreat.

After receiving the things, Zhou Nan said goodbye and walked to the side. Came to the center of the main hall. After that, he carefully glanced at the task light curtain and read it carefully. There are many tasks above, all of which are prepared for disciples in the Enlightenment Period.

For example, there are three acres of spiritual fields in the north peak, which need regular irrigation, insect removal, and fertilization. Five lower grade spirit stones per month. Uncle Li has something to do and goes out for a month, and the spirit beasts in the cave need to be taken care of, and there are ten lower grade spirit stones every month. Senior Sister Dandian Tian needs three Qingling Grasses, more than ten points, and she needs her disciples to go outside to collect them, and she will be rewarded with ten lower grade spirit stones...

There are a lot of tasks, and I watched it for a while. For a while, Zhou Nan couldn't make up his mind what to do. With a sigh, Zhou Nan turned around and left. He decided that within three months, it would be better to break through to the fourth layer of Qiling first, learn some life-saving spells, and then go to take on the task. Only in this way is the most responsible choice for yourself.

Leaving the Zongwu Palace, Zhou Nan went to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion again, but he didn't choose the exercises, "Zhimu Duel" was enough for him, and it was a pure wood attribute, which was very suitable for himself and did not need to be replaced. There was no waste, taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Nan picked out a copy of the "Yellow Order Spell Encyclopedia" and then quickly left under the doubtful gaze of the working disciples.

returned to the residence, closed the door, came to the back hall, injected a small amount of mana into the identity token, Zhou Nan easily opened the guardian formation, and walked into a two-zhang square secret room.

There was only one futon in the middle of the chamber, and nothing else. Put the package, the long sword, and the things he brought into the secret room, and Zhou Nan closed the formation. He went out to buy some food and began a three-month retreat.

In the secret room, Zhou Nan sat cross-legged on the futon, his hands pinched in a strange posture, his chest was regularly agitated, and a trace of cyan air flowed down his nostrils, swirling into his body, being absorbed and refined.

After more than ten days, in addition to the most basic physiological needs, Zhou Nan has been practicing penance in order to make a breakthrough. But it didn't work out. didn't give up, Zhou Nan tried over and over again. However, they were still not allowed to enter.

Slowly collecting the work, Zhou Nan frowned, and said to himself: "After ten days of hard cultivation, the mana has increased somewhat, but it still hasn't been able to break through the fourth layer of Qiling. It seems that with the help of the effect of the elixir. ”

After speaking, he took out three jade bottles from his arms. It didn't take long for Zhou Nan to open the jade bottle containing the Qiling Pill, his eyes condensed, and he poured out a golden pill. The pill exudes a faint fragrance, and just smelling it makes people's whole body shake and refresh, and the operation of mana is also a little faster. Without hesitation, as soon as Zhou Nan raised his hand, he threw the pill into his mouth.

The pill melts in your mouth. Before Zhou Nan could react, a large feeling of coolness erupted in his abdomen. Not daring to stay, he took a deep breath, and Zhou Nan hurriedly ran the "Zhimu Decision" to refine the medicinal power and cultivated.

Ten days later, Zhou Nan's laughter came from the secret room, "Ha Lu haha, the fourth layer of Qiling has finally broken through!"
