Chapter 868 Fat Monk

After hearing this, Xiao Lin became somewhat interested in the ban token in his hand. As for the jade box, he had already known through his spiritual sense that it contained a good quality primary spiritual weapon.

For a disciple who had just entered the sect, being able to reward a primary spiritual weapon was considered very generous.

Of course, Xiao Lin naturally looked down on spiritual weapons and put them away.

"This ban token has many benefits. I don't know all of them, but I do know a few uses. For example, you can use the ban token to go to the second floor of the Tiandao Building and take on tasks that only disciples of the third generation or above can take. You can also go to the second floor of the Sutra Library and watch the cultivation experience of the senior masters in the sect. Of course, the most important use is that you can use it to participate in the lectures of the second-generation chief elders every month. You must know that even many third-generation disciples do not have this qualification."

Wu Tianhua said, and his face showed an envious expression again. Even Xia Mo and Murong Yan behind Xiao Lin looked at Xiao Lin with envy.

Xiao Lin was also a little surprised. He originally didn't intend to be so high-profile, but after all, he brought Xia Mo and Murong Yan with him. If the speed slowed down, the two might not be able to hold on to the end.

But what he didn't expect was that he accidentally won the first place and got this very useful ban token. For him, it was also an unexpected surprise.

Xiao Lin saw that Wu Tianhua had the intention to please him deliberately, so he asked some common sense about the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong without hesitation.

Through Wu Tianhua, Xiao Lin understood that the disciples of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong were divided into five generations in principle. The first generation was the God-transforming cultivators, whose existence even Wu Tianhua didn't know. The second generation was the Nascent Soul cultivators, and the fourteen great cultivators were called the chief second-generation elders, but according to their own responsibilities, there were still some differences in status.

For example, the leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong had a status that was superior to the other thirteen great cultivators, and the True Emperor of the Daqian Dynasty had a status that was superior to the other twelve great cultivators.

The third generation is the Jindan cultivator, who is considered the backbone of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong. Most of the disciples who know about the cultivation of disciples and handle some of the sect's affairs are handled by the third generation disciples.

The fourth generation is naturally the foundation-building cultivator, who is mainly responsible for some important basic work in the sect, such as managing spiritual fields, artifacts, and Dan Pavilions.

The fourth generation of disciples is also called the true disciples, and among the fourth generation of disciples, there are still a small number of core disciples. These disciples are basically trained with emphasis, and there is a great probability that they will be able to advance to the Jindan stage in the future.

The fifth generation is the lowest-level Qi-refining cultivator, also known as the direct disciple. After the fifth generation of disciples join the sect, they will worship the foundation-building disciples as their teachers, so they are also called direct disciples.

Compared with Dancao Mountain where Xiao Lin was born, it is much more humane. Xiao Lin was basically in a state of being raised for a long time after joining Dancao Mountain. It was not until he built his foundation that he officially joined Su Qingyun's door.

Moreover, in Dancao Mountain, many foundation-building disciples also practice on their own, and at most every few months, the Jindan cultivators will answer their questions once.

In contrast, the system of cultivating disciples in the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong is very humane and reasonable, which can prevent low-level disciples from taking detours and is conducive to the overall development of the sect.

Among the fifth-generation disciples, there are also a small number who can worship the third-generation disciples as their teachers and directly become fourth-generation disciples. Such people are relatively rare, and only those who participate in the Tiandao Trial and get the top five results can do so.

Hearing this, Xia Mo and Murong Yan were immediately excited, but Xiao Lin's heart sank and he looked at Xia Mo.

Wu Tianhua was also amiable and patient in answering everyone's questions, answering them one by one in detail and patience, which greatly increased everyone's favorability towards him.

Soon, more and more people gathered in Xianyuan Pavilion, and later there were at least three or four hundred people, and an hour had already passed, which means that only three or four hundred people passed the Tiandao Trial this time among hundreds of thousands of people, which can be said to be one in a thousand.

This probability made Xiao Lin sigh with emotion. Thinking back to the time when he passed the cave trial, it seemed that the probability was much higher than that of the road to heaven trial.

Of course, the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong recruited more than just these three or four hundred disciples every year. You should know that the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong also includes the Daqian Dynasty, the Thirty-Six Mountain Sect and the Three Hundred and Sixty Branch Courtyards. These places have their own ways of recruiting disciples, but compared with the road to heaven trial, the disciples recruited by these places have a slightly lower status in the sect.

Just like the imperial examination in the secular world, both are Jinshi, but entering the Hanlin Academy and being sent to the local area to become a county magistrate, the future prospects are completely different.

Wu Tianhua saw that the trial was over, and those who passed the trial had already arrived at the Xianyuan Pavilion. All of these people had excited expressions on their faces. Being able to worship the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong also indicated that the immortal path was bright. Not only that, their entire family would bring about earth-shaking changes because of themselves.

If it is a family of immortal cultivators, it will surely be able to greatly expand its influence, and the immortal cultivators in the family will be able to obtain more resources, because few people dare to provoke such a family. Once provoked, who knows if a high-level cultivator will descend from the sky and wipe out the family.

And if it is a mortal family, then one person will be able to ascend to heaven. You must know that becoming a member of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong is better than being a Jinshi in the Daqian Dynasty. As long as there is a mortal family who worships the Emperor Haoran Tianzong, they are called Personal disciples can basically control the situation locally.

Many officials will take the opportunity to curry favor, and it is customary for families to promote filial piety and integrity as officials.

Therefore, it is not surprising that these people who have passed the trial on the road to heaven are extremely excited.

Soon the four young men and women in their twenties also flew to Xianyuan Pavilion. It was obvious that the road to heaven had been closed again.

"Congratulations to everyone, you have passed the trial of the Road to Heaven. From today on, you have officially become a direct disciple of our Emperor Haoran Tianzong. Later, I will lead you to the Newcomer Hall to receive items. The first five people in the trial will Congratulations to those of you, Mr. Wu. You will have the opportunity to directly join the sect of the third generation disciples and become the fourth generation true disciples. As for the various benefits of true disciples, I think there are many who have known about our Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong. , it’s probably clear, and I won’t go into details. Please take the four junior brothers and sisters to the Newcomer Hall.”

The four young men and women nodded one after another, then greeted everyone and led them towards a stone staircase in the Xianyuan Pavilion. This stone staircase continued upwards, leading to the top of the mountain.

After most of them left, Wu Tianhua looked at Xiao Lin and the other five people and said with a smile: "Everyone, come with me."

With that said, he walked towards another stone staircase path in the Xianyuan Pavilion.

Xiao Lin and others followed Wu Tianhua and walked for about half an hour. After climbing another two thousand feet, their eyes suddenly became clear.

They climbed the steps and discovered that there was a huge square on top of the six or seven thousand-foot peak. The square was semicircular, and at the end of the semicircle were rows of white jade stones. palace.

On the mountain behind the palace, countless densely packed houses were built close to the mountain peaks. These houses continued down the mountain. At first glance, there were at least hundreds of thousands of houses.

These houses are built of red nanmu, which looks a bit primitive, and they are also well-proportioned. Not only do they not appear messy, but they have a sense of beauty.

Above the house, small palaces were built one after another against the mountain wall, extending to near the top of the mountain.

These small palaces can only be owned by third-generation disciples. Ordinary direct disciples, and even true disciples like Xiao Lin, cannot own them.

As soon as Wu Tianhua and the five people came to the square, five spiritual lights fell from the sky. Xiao Lin glanced and saw that the five people were three men and two women, and they all looked to be in their forties.

The five people came directly to Wu Tianhua and looked at Xiao Lin and the other five people.

One of the middle-aged women in her forties, dressed as a Taoist nun, suddenly looked at Xia Mo with bright eyes.

Another old woman who looked to be in her fifties also turned her attention to Xia Mo, with a look of surprise on her face.

Xiao Lin understood that although these two people could not determine Xia Mo's talent, their spiritual sense as a Jindan monk told them that the woman in front of them had excellent root bone talent and at least had the qualifications of the earth spirit root.

One of the five, a fat man in his forties, looked at Xiao Lin.

"He is the first place in this heavenly trial?"

Although Xiao Lin had sealed most of his magic power and spiritual consciousness, he could still tell at a glance that the fat man in front of him was in the middle stage of the Golden Core, while the other four people were in the early stage of the Golden Core.

In Xiao Lin's eyes, such a state was naturally looked down upon, but in order to have a chance to enter the Sutra Library, Xiao Lin decided to compromise.

"Reporting to Uncle Lei, his name is Xiao Shi, and he is the first placer in this trial of the Road to Heaven."

"I see, you are only at the Dzogchen level of Qi refining, but your magic power is far beyond that of ordinary practitioners at the Dzogchen level of foundation building. Could it be that you have practiced some kind of technique that can condense your magic power?"

"Reporting to Senior Lei, when I was young, I went hunting in the mountains. I accidentally entered a valley and swallowed a red fruit the size of a fist. The surface of the fruit was covered with a skin like fine scales, and since then , When the junior is practicing, his magic power increases very quickly, and his magic power is always stronger than that of monks of the same level. "

When the fat monk heard this, his face suddenly showed an expression of surprise, and his facial features were all squeezed into a pile.

"Could it be the legendary third-level spiritual fruit ambergris? It seems that you are not a small fortune, and even such good things happened to you. Later, although ambergris is full of medicinal power, it is relatively mild. , even if it cannot be absorbed, it will be integrated into the body's flesh and blood meridians without harming itself. "

Xiao Lin secretly laughed in his heart. The story he made up at random was naturally not without purpose. The ambergris fruit is an extremely rare third-level spiritual fruit. It can indeed expand the qi sea of ​​the Dantian of the immortal cultivator, allowing the cultivator to refining his energy during the Qi refining period. Possessing far more mana than the same level.

However, once this expanded Dantian Qi Sea reaches the foundation building stage, this advantage will gradually disappear. When it reaches the golden elixir stage, it will basically be the same as an ordinary golden elixir monk.

Because this ability to expand the sea of ​​​​Qi in the Dantian is only once, and every improvement in the realm will bring about changes in the sea of ​​​​Qi in the Dantian, and this change is a qualitative change, which will directly offset the effect of ambergris fruit.

Sure enough, after the fat monk marveled, he also showed a slightly disappointed expression on his face. He originally thought that he had picked up a disciple with excellent talent. If he could cultivate his fairy roots, he might be able to benefit from it in the future.

Now that I know that this person just took an ambergris fruit by mistake, I am naturally disappointed.

But this is the sect's rule. All the top five disciples on the road to heaven must become the disciples of the third generation. If there is a quota under his subordinates, he will be assigned to recruit disciples.

The fat monk looked at the other people. Except that his eyes lit up when he saw Xia Mo, the other people were pretty much the same. Among this generation of disciples, only that girl seemed to have a pretty good talent.

But as a male cultivator, it is not impossible to recruit a female disciple. However, in order to avoid gossip among fellow disciples, most students will only recruit same-sex disciples. This is also the reason why two female third-generation disciples came.

The fat monk couldn't help but sigh slightly, then pointed at Xiao Lin and said, "Do it to me."

Xiao Lin came to the side of the fat monk. With a wave of his sleeves, a blue spiritual light spread out, wrapping Xiao Lin, then turned into a rainbow, flew towards the mountain, and disappeared on the mountain wall in the blink of an eye. In that densely packed palace.

After Xiao Lin was taken away, the remaining four third-generation disciples also selected their own disciples to take away. Xia Mo was taken away by the middle-aged Taoist nun, while Murong Yan was taken away by the fifty-year-old man.

Xiao Lin followed the fat monk and soon came to a palace. After landing, Xiao Lin saw the plaque "Water Wave Palace" on the palace.

"Come in with me."

The fat monk waved his sleeves and robes, and the palace door opened on its own. He walked in first, and Xiao Lin followed closely. Only when he walked inside did he realize that the palace was actually very spacious, with courtyards and inner courtyards. Passing through the screen between the inner and outer courtyards, Xiao Lin followed the fat monk to the inner courtyard.

The inner courtyard was actually a pond. The water was green and clear. There were several lotus leaves the size of millstones floating on the water. From one side of these lotus leaves, several red flower mushrooms sprang out.

Although it has not bloomed yet, it already fills the whole courtyard with a refreshing fragrance.

The two of them did not stop, and soon walked into the main room of the inner courtyard. The room was only three to four feet wide. There were three stone doors in the inner side of the room, with the words "Alchemy Room, Cultivation Room" written in ancient seals on them. ,bedroom".

When Xiao Lin saw the words "Alchemy Room", he was slightly startled. He couldn't help but glance at the fat monk and thought to himself, could this fat monk actually be an alchemist?

"Sit down?"

There were only three futons in the room. The inner one was slightly larger and the two outer ones were slightly smaller. Xiao Lin sat on the outer left futon.

The fat monk sat on the futon inside.
