Natural Fairy Species

Chapter 310 Screening at all levels

In front of Wanxianjian, after the first round of screening, nearly 10,000 registered casual cultivators have been successfully reduced to 2,000.

 These people who were eliminated did not leave, they were still surrounding and watching the excitement.

Not only was he curious about the newly arrived Tian from Hejian County, but he also wanted to see who would end up with the Foundation Establishment Pill promised in this disciple recruitment ceremony.

The casual cultivators who were eliminated are either old or eighty, have only the third level of Qi Refining and the fourth level of Qi Refining, and only know one basic five-element spell.

Perhaps he has a bad record in the past, his behavior is comparable to that of a demon cultivator, and he has been exposed by others.

 The whole process does not take long, and basically one interview will determine whether you can join the next round.

Eighteen thousand-year-old ghost willows were originally planted here, attracting spirits and wailing every night, with countless ghosts floating and wandering.

Since the Qingfeng Sect took over, three second-order formations have been deployed to convert the ghosts and cleanse the ghosts.

Over the past few years, the ferocious faces on the ghost willow tree disappeared, and the bark gradually changed from dark black to brown.

 Sitting under the shade of a tree, you will no longer feel the chill on your back or the spooky feeling.

Under the largest willow tree, a high platform was erected, and the five foundation-building elders sat on it.

"This is the first time for Hejian County to recruit new disciples. Everything is in good order and the response is enthusiastic... I didn't expect that Junior Brother Li is also proficient in general affairs. It is really unfair that he has not been assigned a formal position yet. Why don't you come to serve in my law enforcement palace?"

Long Long is sitting at the top. His skin is as white as snow. In recent years, as he has assumed the position of a senior elder in the Law Enforcement Hall, his expression has become colder and colder.

The name of Iceberg Fairy spread like wildfire, and all the disciples knew that Elder Long of the Law Enforcement Hall was the most selfless and abiding by the sect's rules.

If you fall into her hands, you will have to admit that you are unlucky. Don't think that she will let you go lightly.

Even their relatives and descendants of the Long family who committed crimes were punished in strict accordance with the sect's rewards and punishments, and were punished with five years of hard labor in the mines.

 In previous years, an elder was responsible for opening the mountain gate.

 As the number of people recruited increased and the workload became larger, it was only these few times that it was changed to two elders co-chairing the work.

Hejian County is a special case. It is the first time to recruit disciples in a new territory, so a lot of attention must be paid to it.

Li Guizhen and two elders were responsible for coordinating the matter. At the last moment, the second-in-command of the Law Enforcement Hall, Long Long, and an elder of the Chuan Gong Hall came to Wanxian Stream in person to ensure that the matter was successful.

"Thanks to the help of several senior brothers and the title of master, I just do some small things within my ability... The general leader of the Law Enforcement Hall has a charter to punish the disciples of the sect internally for all illegal activities, and to prohibit the monks from the two counties from violating the rules externally. The responsibility is very important and important. I can do it.”

Li Guizhen said modestly and did not pay attention to the olive branch thrown by Long Long.

"Besides, I have not been with Master for a long time, and there are still many things I need to learn from, so it is not convenient for me to stay away."

"Junior Brother Li can often listen to Patriarch Bai, which is enviable... The permanent residence in the Law Enforcement Hall is heavy with paperwork, which is indeed not suitable for an ascetic monk like Junior Brother."

Long Long’s face remained as usual and he still spoke in a cold tone.

“After the disciple recruitment ceremony, I asked Junior Brother Li to pass the news on my behalf. I want to meet with Patriarch Bai.”

The high-ranking elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, with the same position as the Deputy Hall, only behind the Hall Master.

Everyone in the sect knows that Long Long is the next candidate for the head of the Law Enforcement Hall.

She has already reached the middle stage of foundation building in terms of cultivation. After taking over the Ghost Spirit Sect's warehouse, the sect has a large number of realm-breaking elixirs. Her attack on the late stage of foundation building has been included in the plan.

In everyone's eyes, Long Long is the best among the elders of the Mesozoic Era, and together with Su Li, he is known as the elder who has the best chance of taking over the position of the palace master.

But only she knew in her heart that her junior brother, who could still perform sect tasks side by side back then, had now grown into a dazzling existence that could not be seen no matter how hard she raised her eyes.

Even his disciples may catch up in a short time, and even surpass him in cultivation.

Everyone will subconsciously ignore Bai Zichen's age when discussing.

 Forgetting the superior Bai Patriarch, among the elders of the Mesozoic Era, they all belong to the young ranks.

After Longlong entered the middle stage of foundation building, he was originally going to be granted the position of prison elder.

But thinking that this position was once held by Patriarch Bai, I was too embarrassed to take it.

 Simply go one step further and pretend that the position of prison elder does not exist and directly become a high-gong elder.

“Replying to the elders, during the re-examination, a famous casual cultivator was in a special situation. We all had very different opinions and couldn’t make a decision..."

Under the high platform, a capable deacon stepped forward to report. His face turned red. He must have had an argument with his fellow disciples.

Bai Xigou Jiang Yonglu, sixty-seven years old, fifth level of Qi refining, first level peak clothing master.

“It turned out to be about this person. What is the point of your dispute?”

Li Guizhen read the resume of this casual cultivator and handed it to Long Long.

“The other deacons all think that it is enough to give Jiang Yonglu the status of a handyman disciple. The disciples think that there should be outer disciples, otherwise it will violate the purpose of recruiting new disciples and fail to attract more Hejian monks.”

The deacon had a loud voice and expressed his views loudly in front of several elders.

“Sixty-seven years old, a first-level peak clothing master...Senior Sister Long, what do you think?”

Li Guizhen originally wanted to reply that it was unreasonable. It would be great if a sixty-seven-year-old casual cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining could be admitted into the sect. He also thought that the outer disciples were not dreaming. But when I thought about it, it was wrong. I felt that it was really difficult to make a decision.

 But it was wrong to think about it, and I felt it was really difficult to make a decision.

Possessing first-level peak skills, such as alchemy and weapon refining, not to mention outer disciples, even inner disciples who are a few years younger may not be able to make exceptions.

As a casual cultivator, you can reach this level by yourself. After receiving systematic training and teaching, the second level can be said to be a certainty.

 A second-level alchemy master will never be less useful to the sect than a foundation-building monk.

 There are only six second-level alchemists in the entire Alchemy Palace, and they are responsible for refining more than 90% of the alchemy in Qingfeng Sect.

 It just so happens that this old man Jiang’s skills as a dressmaker are extremely unpopular.

It was so cold that there was no inheritance of this skill in Qingfeng Sect, and it was so cold that Li Guizhen didn’t realize at the first time that this was one of the hundreds of skills of cultivating immortals.

Yi Shi, as the name suggests, is the one who makes robes and robes.

In addition to being more beautiful in appearance, the cassock can also have various magical qualities. Invulnerability to water and fire and dust are the basic requirements.

High-grade cassocks and robes even come with forbidden magic and secret techniques, which do not need to be activated. They will be activated on their own under certain circumstances.

However, this skill is awkward because ordinary monks do not have spiritual stones to spend on robes. High-level monks are more willing to refine it themselves if they need it.

 On the one hand, it is more comfortable, personal and convenient.

On the other hand, the forbidden secrets attached to high-level cassocks and robes are often the last trump card to bring the dead back to life.

 The most important thing about nature is that it is unexpected and no one knows it exists.

 Then it would be even more impossible to entrust it to others for refining, which would lead to the existence of the clothing master ranking at the bottom among all the immortal arts.

“I heard that all the disciples of the Yuanying Sect will have uniform robes, unlike our ordinary robes that only have maple leaves embroidered on the corners. It would be a good thing to have a robe master to improve the sect’s robes.”

Long Long pondered for a moment and put forward his own ideas.

"However, the purpose of being an outer sect disciple is to allow disciples to work **** the road of cultivation and reach greater heights... It is impossible for this disciple to pass the sect competition even if he is an outer sect disciple at his age. Why not grant him a license to do it for only two years? If the handyman disciples are immediately transferred to the management of the general affairs hall, they can be considered as making the best use of their resources."

For example, the standard robes of the Holy Lotus Sect are essentially different from the various robes currently issued by the Qingfeng Sect.

 The so-called standard means not only uniform styles and materials, but also consistent patterns and logos.

Taking the Taoist Robe of the Holy Lotus Sect as an example, the Qi Refining disciples all have early warning signals emitted in critical moments, and when attacked in a coma and unconscious state, a thick earth shield is automatically activated. There are water-avoiding techniques for falling into the water, fire-avoiding techniques when encountering fire, etc.

 The cost of making such a robe will not be lower than refining a top-quality magic weapon.

Only a major Yuanying sect like the Holy Lotus Sect, as the co-leader of the Immortal Cultivation World in the Liang Kingdom, has the capital to make entry-level Taoist robes for tens of thousands of Qi Refining disciples.

The other elders have similar opinions to Long Long. The grinding time of the handyman disciples can be shortened, but they cannot be taught directly to the outer disciples.

Li Guizhen remained silent. It was impossible for him to ask his master about such a trivial matter.

 He was thinking in his heart what decision the master would make if he encountered this situation.

Several thoughts went through his mind until he recalled what Bai Zichen told him a month ago that this time he would accept the new Five Spiritual Root Immortal Seedlings and accept all comers.

“First-level peak skills are extremely difficult, and they can also fill the vacancies in the robes and robes of our sect... Promote the position of outer sect disciple, and all the benefits are the same as those of normal outer sect disciples.”

 As the person in charge of the apprenticeship ceremony, Li Guizhen has made a decision, and others should abide by it.

Even though Long Long’s status in the sect was much higher than his, he couldn’t overrule his decision at this moment.

What's more, Long Long was holding the tea cup quietly, not having any thoughts at all because of the different opinions of a casual cultivator.

 After this small interlude, a few people quickly selected the candidates for handyman disciples and outer sect disciples among the nearly a thousand casual cultivators who entered the third round.

 There are only ten inner disciples left, which is still empty.

“Inner sect disciples have always only been appointed by the ancestor of Jiedan or the head of the sect...This time, in order to take care of Hejian County, ten places have been specially opened.”

Long Long glanced at the temporary list of one hundred and ten outer disciples, feeling in his heart that these disciples from Hejian County who signed up were really lucky.

Without this care policy, only the top three in the sect's competition each year would become inner disciples.

It is difficult for the disciples of Wanxianjian branch to compete with the disciples of this mountain. It is estimated that they will not be able to gather ten inner disciples in ten years.

“How about we submit the list of outer disciples to be judged by Patriarch Bai?”

“No, at least we have to mark out the candidates, otherwise we have to ask Master to see all the more than a hundred outer gates?”

Li Guizhen firmly opposed it and first copied Mi Wanding, who was at the top of the tentative list of outer disciples, to the list of inner disciples.

This is the name finally reported by the Mi family. It was approved by Patriarch Bai and rewarded the Mi family for their secret sword-making skills.

“Brothers, why don’t we all express our opinions and select the twenty best outer disciples for Master’s decision.”

 “Junior Brother Li is wise and prudent, so we will act accordingly.”

“That’s right, you can’t bother Old Ancestor Bai with more trivial matters.”

 Several elders all agreed that the position of the inner disciples was too sensitive.

If Patriarch Jiedan hadn't personally supervised it this time, everyone would have said nothing and just sent the list back to the mountain to ask the master to issue an order.
