The ancestor is incompetent!
Chapter 182 New System
Chapter 182 New System
The gate of Qiling Mountain, on the Shuwu Peak.
On the mountain road, various colors of spiritual light shuttled back and forth in the sky, and there was really a constant stream of people. From time to time, three or five fellow disciples would walk together, chatting and laughing, or alone, or riding on flying birds, which amazed many disciples.
All the disciples would land and walk slowly on the square near the bottom of Shuwu Peak. The entire Shuwu Square covered an area of more than several miles, and even though it was the peak time for disciples to come and go, it was still not congested.
In the General Affairs Square, Wang Chaochen, dressed in a light yellow gown, cast a Dharma Cloud. Even though he had restrained his aura and used the uniformly issued Dharma Cloud in the sect to blend in with the crowd, when some disciples saw the three spiritual peach blossoms embroidered on his waist, they all looked sideways.
It's just because although he is wearing a yellow shirt and a white jade belt, it has three embroidered flowers on it, which is the clothing that only deacons and disciples can have.
Wang Chaochen felt a headache when he saw many people looking at him. Most of the disciples in the sect were sent out to patrol the Mingyue Qi Realm. Most of these disciples were newly recruited from the Five States and were trained and allowed into the sect after they had achieved initial Qi Refining.
Three years ago, the head master and the elders of the same sect decided to establish a new state, named Yuanzhou, relocate the population, divide the area into counties, and build new cities. As the sect was already short of manpower, the entire sect was busy for several months before things were finally settled.
There is no way around it. With the rapid increase in the population of the people living at the foot of the mountain in recent years, the original four states can no longer accommodate a population of more than 10 million.
Therefore, they could only establish a new state and build a system to pacify the people. This was also related to the wishes of the higher-ups in the sect. The elders in the sect intended to expand the mortal population so that more people with spiritual roots would appear to expand the number of disciples in the sect.
Wang Chaochen shook his head and was about to hand over the task, but suddenly he heard a familiar voice calling him from behind.
"Brother Zhaochen! What a coincidence! I actually met you here."
He turned around and saw a playful woman wearing a light yellow and white jade belt looking at him with surprise.
"Junior Sister Zhao Xin, what a coincidence!" He couldn't help but smile, "Why? Are you here at Shuwu Peak to earn contribution points as well?"
"Yes, I still lack some elixirs to improve my cultivation. After finishing my chores, I thought about coming to the General Affairs Peak to see if I could take on some tasks in exchange for elixirs." Wang Chaoxin looked at him with a smile and asked, "Brother, did you return to the mountain after you finished your duty?"
"Haha, that's right. I was assigned to guard the White Bone Bridge a few days ago. That place is very gloomy, with skeletons and bones shining brightly under the bridge. It's even more terrifying at night when the moonlight shines on it. The timid ones who are assigned there will suffer." Wang Chaochen said with a little emotion, frowned at her cultivation and said, "Junior sister, I know you are anxious about your cultivation. But you can't take too many elixirs when you practice, otherwise the elixir poison will accumulate. After years of accumulation, it will be much more difficult for you to break through to the true cultivation in the future."
"Yes, Senior Brother." Wang Chaoxin's face turned slightly pale, and he sighed, "But my spiritual roots are only of average quality. If I don't have spiritual pills to improve my cultivation, I'm afraid I won't be able to break through to the late stage before I'm a hundred years old. There's no possibility of breaking through to the true cultivation."
"Hey, you don't have to be discouraged. There is always a way. No matter what, we have the support of our family compared to other disciples. Don't use elixirs indiscriminately." Having said this, Wang Chaochen moved close to her ear. The man's breath was so close that her ears slightly reddened.
"You know, I heard from the head master uncle that many new kinds of elixirs refined by Elder Li Yiyan's True Fire Divine Power [Guiyantong Pill] are poisonous due to the lack of alchemy skills. You must be careful and don't use them carelessly."
Wang Chaoxin felt warm in her heart when she heard these words, and shyly moved away from him. "Thank you for telling me, Senior Brother. I will remember this and use less elixirs in the future."
"Well, that's good." Wang Chaochen nodded and reminded: "If you really want to go further, you might as well ask Chao Qiu for help. After all, he is the last disciple of the ancestor. Naturally, he has many ways to help you improve your cultivation."
He reached out his hand and wanted to pat Zhao Xin on the shoulder, but he realized that she had grown into a graceful young lady, and there should be a difference between men and women, so he stopped his hand and said with a smile: "I still have some business to take care of, so I'll leave first. Let's meet again when we have time."
"Okay, senior brother, you can go and do your work first." Wang Zhaoxin's face was slightly red, but fortunately it was covered by the hair falling on the sides of his ears, so nothing unusual could be seen.
After seeing Wang Chaochen off, she lowered her head and glanced at the two lively peach blossoms on her waist, feeling a little lost. Since the mountain gate was restructured four years ago, the clothes of the Qi Refining disciples have been standardized as light yellow long gowns and white jade belts. Outer disciples in the early stage of Qi Refining have one spiritual peach, inner disciples in the middle stage of Qi Refining have two spiritual peaches, and deacon disciples in the late stage of Qi Refining have three spiritual peaches.
There is a huge gap between the middle and late stages of Qi Refining. A disciple with spiritual roots like her cannot break through to the late stage without external help and decades of hard training.
Then she wouldn't be able to take on missions with Senior Brother Chaochen, and even mid-stage disciples wouldn't be able to accept missions that late-stage disciples were supposed to take on.
Thinking of this, she sighed and came to Qi Feng's General Affairs Hall. She walked in and looked at the rows of published tasks on the wall that were flashing with light.
The first level of the General Affairs Peak is the General Affairs Hall, which is jointly opened by the seven peaks and is used to announce the disciples' compulsory general affairs on rotation every three months.
As for the remaining three months, the disciples can arrange their time freely and practice meditation and Qi training in the cave with peace of mind.
You can also get together with a few good friends to drink and have fun, travel, or go on an adventure.
You can also accept tasks issued by individuals and sects in these general affairs halls to earn sect contribution points, which can be used to exchange for various rare spiritual objects, secret techniques, elixirs, true elixirs, magic arrays and spiritual formations in the sect. Anything in the sect can be exchanged for contribution points.
All kinds of temptations are so clearly placed in front of the disciples, who can not be tempted? Even if you are not tempted for a while, as time goes by, the cultivation of your relatives and friends will rise, and only you are standing still. Will you not be anxious?
Even if they have given up on themselves, everyone wants to exchange for spiritual objects to leave for their descendants in order to make the future life easier for their loved ones.
After only a few years, the entire Qi Ling Sect's style changed dramatically. Previously, breaking through to the true cultivation level was just a luxury, something only talented disciples were qualified to think about.
But now, every disciple wants to become a true cultivator. Even if they are not qualified enough, there are hundreds of spiritual objects and many methods to help them break through. Even ordinary disciples want to give it a try! After all, who doesn't want to be respected like a true cultivator elder in the sect and have a lifespan of hundreds of years?
Wang Zhaoxin looked at the rows of chores, made up his mind, and received a hundred pieces of "Ice Crystal Cold Stone" that had been collected from the Snow Mountain Spirit Mine for sixty years.
Watching her identity token pass through this task, she thanked her senior brother from the General Affairs Hall and turned to leave Wangshan.
Two figures standing on the top of Shuwu Peak were standing with their hands behind their backs, and they were very pleased to see the thriving development of Qi Ling Sect.
Chen Guan praised, "Brother Zuo, your insight is effective. Use benefits to drive them, promises to drive them, and all disciples will have the heart to pursue the Tao. As their cultivation improves day by day, they will be driven by common affairs. Then the foundation of the sect will be deeper, and the more treasures and rare objects are displayed, the more the disciples will have the heart to pursue the Tao."
Zuo Qiuyu chuckled and said, "Haha, this is just a law of cause and effect. What is really important is to let the disciples open their eyes to the world. I personally presided over the teaching of the sect and made major changes to the teaching of disciples under the age of twelve.
In addition to being able to read and write, understand the meridians and pulses, they also added a view of heaven and earth, so that when they were children, they would know the vastness of the Nanjue Continent and the diversity of heaven and earth, so that they would regard Qilingmen as just a small place in their hearts, and the real big world was waiting for them to know after they grew up step by step. The principles of all things in the world are not permanent, and true cultivation and above true cultivation are not always something that only genius disciples can dream of.
As long as we let them establish the concept that everyone can truly practice cultivation, then it will be accomplished.”
"Everyone can truly practice cultivation?" Chen Guan was a little surprised and asked, "How is this possible?"
"Whether they can do it or not is not important." Zuo Qiuyu said with a smile: "As long as they believe that they want to become true cultivators, that is enough. They will find ways to improve themselves and strengthen the mountain sect.
As to whether this is true or not, it is naturally false to us now.
But no one knows what the world will look like thousands and tens of thousands of years from now. Maybe by then everyone will be able to truly practice cultivation. "
Chen Guan frowned and said, "But if they find out that they have practiced hard for many years but still cannot become a true cultivator, won't they resent their elders?"
"No. Often, you only need to give them a positive conclusion, and they will find their own faults to convince themselves.
Why can others achieve true cultivation, but you can't? Because you are not working hard enough." Zuo Qiuyu smiled faintly and looked at him and said, "Is that so? Master Brother?"
Chen Guan thought about all this and felt a little uneasy. He knew that this was a complete lie, but for the Qi Ling Sect and the disciples who were like ants, this was a white lie.
Then, he nodded and said, "Junior Brother Zuo is indeed very clear-headed. From now on, all matters related to the sect's teaching and inheritance will be handed over to Junior Brother alone."
"Thank you for your kindness, Master Brother." Zuo Qiuyu sighed, "Since I was born in Qi Ling, I should work for Qi Ling. If our interests are the same, then kinship is better than blood ties.
But I will wait another three or two years, I will retreat to make a breakthrough, then I will trouble you to take care of me.”
"What? Another breakthrough?" Chen Guan was really surprised this time. "If I remember correctly, you just broke through to the second level six years ago. In less than ten years, you are going to break through to the third level? This speed is comparable to the legendary heavenly spiritual roots!"
"Haha, my Taoism is different from other Taoisms. Taiji's magical power is divided into two yin and yang. As long as there is one qi, yin and yang can coexist and the two yin and yang can complement each other.
Over the years, I have discovered that the more relaxed I am and the more I practice occasionally, the faster my cultivation improves.
Moreover, teaching my disciples, preaching and answering their questions, my understanding of the various ways of the world has become deeper and deeper. I even have the illusion that no matter whether I practice alchemy, formation, instrument, or talisman, as long as I study hard, I will be able to achieve something.
Just like the Yuan Formation you gave me, I was able to master it completely in just a few years." Zuo Qiuyu said frankly with a calm look in his eyes.
"This..." Chen Guan was shocked when he heard this. Even a person with a heavenly spiritual root was far inferior to the one in front of him. He opened his mouth and could only say, "Junior Brother Zuo is truly an extraordinary person.
The prosperity of the sect may still fall on you."
"No, no." Zuo Qiuyu shook his head and laughed, "In my spare time, I learned some of the Taoist traditions left by our ancestors. I also had some knowledge of the ancient Tianyan Qi that is proficient in fortune-telling. In my humble opinion, I'm afraid that Qi Ling Daxing still has to fall on the word "ancestor."
"Ancestor?"
Chen Guan heard this. Now the three highest-ranking officials were all respected as ancestors by the disciples. Since this extraordinary person said so, it must be very likely that Han Yu and Li Yuan would successfully ascend to the throne.
"Then I wonder what Junior Brother Zuo thinks of the four major families in the sect today?" Since the other party is so knowledgeable, I should ask more questions, which can always provide some useful information for me to manage the mountain. Chen Guan asked directly.
"The four great families?" Zuo Qiuyu stroked his beard slowly, thought for a moment, and then replied without a single mistake: "In my humble opinion, although the four great families have their own selfish motives, no one is perfect, no one is saintly.
As long as their existence brings more benefits than disadvantages to the sect, and their hearts are devoted to the sect, their selfish desires will become public-spirited desires.
Just like the Wang family of Yuncheng, they have been in the same boat with the Qiling clan for thousands of years and have long been interdependent.
As long as the sect prospers, the disciples, family members, and elders will all benefit. Over time, they will blend with each other and become like the yin and yang Tai Chi, with all returning to the same origin and no distinction between them.
However, the Wang family of Yuncheng may seem unremarkable now, but I have observed that many of their disciples are gifted. I am afraid that in less than half a century, the Wang family will be the most prosperous of the four major families.
After all, the remaining Xiguang Xiang family has a deep foundation. Although it is now the undisputed first family, it will gradually settle down and naturally return to the sect over time. However, I am afraid that there will be no good seedlings in the future. After this group of old monks pass away, they may decline for a while.
As for the Bai family, I heard that the Bai Shangdi designated the family name as Xingxue Bai family, which involves the fate of the stars, so it is hard to say what the future will be like. But it must be closely related to the way of the stars.
As long as Bai Shang is in power, even if the Bai family is powerful, there will be constraints, not to mention that they are not very strong now.
As for the last Yuanzhen Li family, I heard that Senior Brother Li Hanxing came to ask the headmaster personally, presumably to commemorate his ancestors. However, Li family's fate is chaotic and their luck is unclear, so I can't say for sure. But they must have something to do with the Immortal Sect, otherwise their luck wouldn't be so vague and unclear. "
After listening to this, Chen Guan said with emotion: "Junior Brother Zuo is indeed very attentive to details. Most of the secret disciples he personally selected are from the Wang family.
I have also carefully looked at the Xiang family's disciples, and indeed there are no outstanding ones among the next generation.
As for the Bai and Li families, their ancestors have extraordinary bloodlines, especially the Li family. With the establishment of the family, they can also provide more talented disciples for the sect."
