Chapter 160: Guest of Yunshui Sect
Hearing this laughter, Chu Chen hurriedly stood up and looked at the entrance of the side hall.
He saw a middle-aged man in a green shirt with a fair face and elegant temperament, stepping into the side hall.
"Brother Han."
Zhenren Qingyun bowed first, and then introduced to Chu Chen: "Brother Ye, this is the elder of the Foreign Affairs Hall, Master Han Yuanhao."
"I am Ye Qiu, and I meet Master Han."
Chu Chen immediately bowed.
"Brother Ye, you don't have to be polite. Just call me Brother Han. When you enter the sect, you and I will be brothers. Why should we be so polite between brothers?"
Han Yuanhao's voice was gentle, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.
"I will first overstep my authority and meet Brother Han."
Chu Chen did not refuse Han Yuanhao's kindness.
"Please enter your identity information and leave a magic power."
Han Yuanhao chatted with Chu Chen for a while, then got straight to the point, took out two identity tokens, and handed them to Chu Chen.
Ye Qiu, a person from Anling Mansion of Northern Qi.
Chu Chen took the identity token, probed into it with his mind, wrote down the information, and input a mana.
The identity token has a complex restriction. When mana is injected into it, it instantly merges with the restriction, as if it has been marked with an indelible mark.
Others who get this identity token cannot use it to open the mountain protection formation of Yunshui Sect because the mana is not integrated, and it is even more impossible to use the merits in the token.
The two tokens were made in the same way, injected with mana, one kept by the sect, and the other kept by Chu Chen.
In this way, Chu Chen became a guest elder of Yunshui Sect.
"I think Junior Brother Qingyun has told you that to join the sect, you need to complete a task for the sect."
Han Yuanhao put away Chu Chen's identity token and his face became solemn.
"Yes."
Chu Chen nodded.
"This is the task list. Junior Brother, see which task you are willing to do?"
Han Yuanhao took out a jade slip and handed it to Chu Chen.
Chu Chen took the jade slip and checked it with his mind. It was the same as what Qingyun Zhenren said before. Most of them were some external missions, either guarding the spiritual mine or guarding a certain important place.
Previously, when he chatted with Qingyun Zhenren, he learned that among the sect missions, the ones with the most benefits were naturally the ones that stayed in the sect, such as guarding the Foreign Affairs Hall, the Dharma Hall, the Punishment Hall, etc.
They could practice in the sect, and they were also in a high position and occupied the core position of the sect.
However, most of these positions were held by the direct elders of the sect, or even handed over to the true disciples. There were very few guest elders who could hold such important positions.
Unless it was a guest elder like Qingyun Zhenren who had joined Yunshui Sect for hundreds of years, it was possible.
After all.
After all, the guest elders were casual cultivators, and it was reasonable for Yunshui Sect to be on guard. This was also one of the reasons why casual cultivators could join Yunshui Sect so easily after building their foundation.
Even if a demon sect disciple pretends to be a casual cultivator and successfully sneaks into Yunshui Sect, it will be difficult for him to achieve anything if he cannot contact the core of the sect in the early stage.
A hundred years is enough for Yunshui Sect to find out the details of a casual cultivator's foundation building.
This is actually a good thing for Chu Chen.
He joined Yunshui Sect with only one purpose, which is to obtain the foundation building method.
Others are jealous of the positions of the external affairs elder, but Chu Chen avoids them. There are so many eyes staring at such important positions, which means endless troubles.
Moreover, holding important positions such as external affairs elders may frequently contact with the foundation building masters of Yunshui Sect.
He may even frequently contact with Ganshui Master, the current number one person in the Qingzhou cultivation world, and his secrets may be exposed one day.
Compared with this, the external mission is more attractive.
"Whether it is guarding the spiritual mine or guarding the market, although it is far away from the power core of Yunshui Sect, it also means being away from the storm vortex and a group of foundation-building real people."
A foundation-building real person is the top figure in the market. With a little trick, he can firmly control the market, just like Qiao Yan'er turned Chiyan Market into her own one-man show.
As long as there is no major disaster, it is completely possible to practice peacefully in the market for hundreds of years.
"Brother Han, I want to take the task of guarding the market."
Chu Chen put down the jade slip and said.
"Guard the market?"
Han Yuanhao frowned, as if he felt it was difficult: "The position of the real person guarding the market is not vacant yet, junior brother, why don't you change the task."
"Brother, Junior Brother Ye can replace me and become the real person guarding Canglan Market."
At this time, Qingyun Zhenren on the side interrupted.
"Junior brother wants to resign from the position of the real person guarding Canglan Market?"
Han Yuanhao looked at Qingyun Zhenren in surprise and asked.
True Man Qingyun smiled and said, "I am old now, it is time for me to return to my clan to enjoy my old age."
"It seems that the two junior brothers have already discussed it, so I will just fulfill their wish."
Han Yuanhao glanced at the two of them, waved his hand, and directly asked Chu Chen to take over the position of the True Man guarding Canglanfang City.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Han."
Chu Chen and the others hurriedly thanked him.
"No need to be polite. Logically, as a guest elder, I should take you to see the headmaster, but unfortunately, the headmaster is still in seclusion, so we can only wait until later."
Han Yuanhao smiled and waved his hand.
"By the way, in three days, the sect will hold an initiation ceremony for you, so don't forget to attend."
Then Han Yuanhao told Chu Chen some rules and precautions that guest elders need to follow, and handed over the rich merits of recruiting casual cultivators to build foundations to True Man Qingyun.
Then, he said goodbye and left.
...
An ancient hall.
The four sides are made of gray stone walls, with carved murals, showing the ancient style.
The plaque at the entrance of the main hall has the words "Chuanfa" written on it.
"Junior brother, you can enter the Chuanfa Hall with the guest token, and the Chuanfa elder will lead you to choose a foundation-building technique."
Zhenren Qingyun pointed to the Chuanfa Hall and reminded: "Guest elders can choose a foundation-building technique or Taoist secret technique for free. If you want to practice other techniques or Taoist secret techniques in the future, you need to exchange them with merits. Junior brother must be very careful."
"Thank you for your guidance, senior brother."
Chu Chen bowed his hands to thank him.
Zhenren Qingyun returned a greeting and left in a hurry.
As early as after receiving the merit of recruiting casual cultivators to build foundations, Zhenren Qingyun was anxious to go to the Danqi Hall to exchange for a treasure he had coveted for a long time, but he patiently sent Chu Chen to the Chuanfa Hall.
Chu Chen walked into the Chuanfa Hall alone, and when he showed the guest elder token, he soon saw the Chuanfa elder.
Zhenren Qingyang
"I am Ye Qiu, and I am honored to meet Senior Brother Qingyang."
Chu Chen bowed his hands and saluted politely: "I have just joined the sect and come here to receive the foundation-building skills. Please, Senior Brother, please help me."
"Look for yourself."
Zhenren Qingyang said briefly and handed Chu Chen a jade slip.
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
Chu Chen thanked him and checked the jade slip with his mind. There was a simple list in it, recording many foundation-building skills and Taoist secrets, as well as a simple introduction to the corresponding ones.
"One Yuan Kuishui Sutra, Hunyuan Gong, Lihuo Jintong, Wuxing Dunfa..."
Although the skills and Taoist secrets recorded in the jade slip are not as vast as the sea of clouds, there are also hundreds of them, all of which are foundation-building skills and Taoist secrets.
The Yunshui Sect has stood in the Qingzhou cultivation world for thousands of years. The long years have allowed the Yunshui Sect to accumulate many inheritances.
Excluding the Taoist secrets, there are only dozens of skills left for Chu Chen to choose from.
