Chapter 297 Elders’ Welfare

The biggest benefit of building a foundation in a sect and becoming an elder is that you can enjoy some of the sect's resources to a greater extent.

For example, the cave house located on the spiritual vein, the long-standing martial arts hall, and some rights that the elder can exercise!

Of course, if you want to get all of this, you must first report to the head of the sect.

So on the second day, Li Qing, who had consolidated his own cultivation, did not even have time to rest, and flew to Yunxiao Island to visit the head of the Xuyun sect on his magic weapon.

"It is said that when you reach the foundation-building stage, you can give yourself a Taoist name. When you come into contact with other people in the future, you can report your Taoist name without saying your real name."

"I don't know why there is such a tradition. Could it be that there is also that kind of weird curse in the world of cultivating immortals, which only needs to know a person's birth date and name to harm others?"

During the flight, Li Qing, who was bored in every way, let his thoughts run wild, and his thoughts suddenly became complicated.

When people feel relaxed and comfortable, they have the most distracting thoughts. Even Li Qing, who has reached the foundation-building stage, cannot escape the vulgarity.

"So what name should I give myself?"

Thinking of this, Li Qing's mind quickly emerged with some nicknames he had been called in the secular world.

The first one was Fierce Tiger! At that time, his martial arts was extremely fierce and outstanding, and he was good at using a set of tiger fists, so he was called Fierce Tiger by people in the world.

Fierce Tiger Taoist? Fierce Tiger Real Man? Fierce Tiger True Lord?

It sounded strange, Li Qing frowned and discarded this title.

The second nickname was Wuji. After he became a martial arts master, he did not show any traces of magical powers in the world.

And people in the world gave him the name of Wuji Grandmaster based on a martial arts secret he passed down.

"Wuji Taoist...well, this Taoist name is not bad."

Thinking so satisfied, Li Qing also flew to Yunxiao Island, where a majestic and imposing hall stood quietly in the center of the island.

It was not beyond Li Qing's expectation that the other three immortal seedlings who had established their foundation yesterday had arrived early in the palace.

"Brother Li, congratulations, you successfully established your foundation last night, and I don't know how many fellow disciples were shocked!" Ji Bai looked at Li Qing with a kind smile.

In addition to Ji Bai, the other two people who successfully established their foundation were Shen Ningbing, who had ice spirit roots, and Wu Hong, a burly man who was always taciturn!

After Li Qing arrived, Shen Ningbing just took a look and then retracted his gaze, continuing to quietly wait for the arrival of the headmaster.

On the contrary, Wu Hong stared at Li Qing with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see through him, and was quite interested in Li Qing.

Li Qing had heard of this person. Just like his name, he was a martial arts fanatic and liked to find people to fight.

As for Wu Hong's interest in Li Qing, the reason was not surprising. It was nothing more than the successful establishment of the four spirit roots and his escape from the hands of two foundation-building cultivators when he was in the Qi Refining Stage.

Especially the latter battle record, which made Wu Hong want to practice with Li Qing.

In response, Li Qing just laughed dryly, ignored Wu Hong's anxious eyes, and said kindly: "Li is very lucky to be able to build a foundation. My cultivation aptitude is far inferior to yours!"

"Brother Li is really too modest. So many fellow disciples with excellent aptitudes failed to build a foundation yesterday. It can be seen that you must have something extraordinary to succeed!" Ji Bai complimented.

Extraordinary? It's just that you ate a few more foundation-building pills, plus you live a long life and your body can stay young forever!

Of course, he would not say this, and still dealt with it with a humble attitude.

Just as the two were bragging about business, the head of the Xuyun sect walked out slowly again in the hall.

Seeing this, the four of them immediately clasped their fists respectfully and said, "Greetings, Master!"

Master Xuyun held his beard with his hand and said with a smile, "No need to be polite. If you don't mind, you four can call me Master Brother in the future. Now that I have achieved the foundation building stage, I am the elder of the sect."

This is absolutely correct. Although Master Xuyun has a high level of cultivation, he is still only in the foundation building stage after all. The few of them are in the same realm, and it is absolutely natural to call each other brothers.

Hearing this, Li Qing was filled with emotion, and even a little bit couldn't adapt to this rapid change of seniority.

Ji Bai and the other three just smiled at this, and the expressions on their faces were still respectful.

Seeing this scene, Master Xuyun shook his head and smiled, and then took out four identity tokens engraved with the word Lingyun from his arms.

"Take it, inject your own Qi into the token, and from now on, the four of you will be the elders of our sect!"

"With this token, you can go to Hanyun Peak and several other peaks to choose a cave of your own. If you are not satisfied with the existing cave, you can open one yourself, as long as you pay attention to the scale."

Li Qing took the token and looked at it. Unlike the Ascension Token, this token is made of spiritual wood. It feels a little rough, but the essence of the spiritual wood inside is also strong enough, and it is obviously of a high age.

Then, Master Xuyun talked about other benefits and precautions.

"In addition to receiving a cave, this token can also allow you to enter and exit the Transmission Hall once, and you can choose a suitable method or secret technique by yourself."

"In addition, as an elder of our sect, you will naturally receive a salary, two hundred contribution points per year, and three middle-grade spiritual stones!"

"If it's not enough, you can also consider taking up some sect positions, and your salary will increase accordingly."

In fact, it’s really quite a lot. An elder in the foundation-building stage can receive three mid-grade spiritual stones and a 200-point contribution by doing nothing throughout the year!

The most important thing is of course the contribution points. Within the sect, whether you are exchanging magic weapons for elixirs or borrowing techniques to pass on, you must use contribution points.

In terms of value, one point of contribution is worth five low-grade spiritual stones. If you don't need it, you can exchange the contribution points for spiritual stones, but the reverse is not possible. The sect does not accept the practice of exchanging spiritual stones for contribution points.

As for why this is the case, Li Qing can understand it. After all, as long as you have enough contribution points, you can exchange for foundation-building pills and access to the transfer hall. These are the foundation of a sect.

"Thank you, Senior Brother!" After hearing the elder's benefits, several people thanked him in unison.

However, the head of Xuyun waved his hand and said: "Elders, what are your next plans? In fact, there are still many vacant positions in the sect, such as the Dantang Formation Hall and the Law Enforcement Hall, both of which still lack elder manpower. "

Every immortal sect is similar, and there are two types of elders in the foundation-building stage.

One is that those who think that their qualifications are good and there is still room for improvement in their practice in the future will choose not to take up positions in the sect and concentrate on practicing hard in seclusion in order to achieve a higher state.

The second type is that they feel that their qualifications are average, and even if they practice hard, they won’t have much room for improvement. It would be better to hold a position and exchange for some more spiritual resources every year. Maybe they can take a few steps forward with the help of these resources. .

Of course, many newly promoted elders in the foundation building stage will first choose the first option and practice hard in the cave for a few years.

Later, after realizing the difficulty of entering the Foundation Establishment Stage, they all gave a wry smile and realized that there was no hope for the immortal path, so they simply left seclusion and served as elders to earn the qualifications for practicing in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

In fact, Sect Leader Xuyun doesn't care how Li Qing and others choose. Anyway, after a few years, those who have some self-awareness will come out to contribute to the sect.

After all, they are both cultivators of immortality, and they have just established the foundation. It is a time when they are very satisfied. How could they easily choose the second option?

Not to the surprise of Master Xuyun, several people present, including Li Qing, claimed that they wanted to spend a few years in seclusion to realize it carefully.

In fact, Li Qing hesitated before making a decision. He originally thought about whether to go directly to the Weapon Refining Hall and become an Weapon Refining Elder.

But in the end, he decided to go with the crowd and meditate alone for a few years. It would not be too late to make a decision then.

Anyway, his weapon refining skills are with him and will not be lost. Whenever he wants to, it would be a great thing to leave seclusion and serve as the elder of the weapon refining hall.

"Haha, your determination towards the Tao is admirable. This is a blessing for the sect. I hope that the four of you can go further on the road. The sect will rely on your blessing in the future."

"Okay, I won't keep you here anymore. Now you can choose the cave of your choice!"

Head Xuyun said a few words in a friendly manner and then sent the four people away from the palace.
