Mirror of the Sky - Chapter 257
()
The disciples in the Zhenjun Palace are divided into seven grades: Taoist, Taishang elder (Daoqing), elder (Taoist), Taoist, deacon (true disciple), inner disciple, and outer disciple.
Among them, there are three types of disciples: outer sect, inner sect, and true inheritance. They are divided according to their cultivation bases. Human-level cultivators and warriors who have just started their cultivation are outer sect disciples. Sect disciples who have cultivated successfully within 30 years can be converted into true disciples when they are promoted to high grades, and they can be converted into deacons if they cannot make breakthroughs within the time limit.
The true disciples have a bright future, and even if they can’t continue their diligence, they can be dispatched to become the host of many small and medium-sized cities and temples in Guanjiangkou, and become a small prince.
Once you reach the Heavenly rank, you will have many more choices. Those who like power can become Taoists and Taoists with respected status in the True Monarch Palace. He can become the Daoqing who is in charge of one palace and one peak of the mountain gate.
And those who pursue the Supreme Dao can be the elders who ignore the common affairs and continue to concentrate on the practice of spiritual objects and medicine pills in the palace, break through to the realm of great monks and be promoted to elders too.
But the deacon has no authority and loses the way to make progress. Unless he makes great achievements or cultivates great progress, he will not be able to progress in eternity.
Although the Daotong boy who led Zhang Huansheng into the mountain was young and only an outer disciple, he was a descendant of an aristocratic family in the Palace of the True Monarch, and had extraordinary cultivation aptitude.
It is only because the cultivation time is too short, the cultivation base is not deep, and due to the limitations of the sect rules, it has to bear the name of the outer disciple, and those who actually know the inside story are regarded as the true transmission.
He was spoiled at a young age, he was ignorant of the dangers of human hearts, and he wanted wind and rain in the sect. With a graceful appearance, it is difficult to hide the proud color between his brows.
He said loudly: “Today, because the Emperor Yanhuang ignited the smoke of the wolf, the Taoist gave an order to move Si Qi, my master, brother, sister, and all the Taoists and Taoists in the Shuwu Hall rushed to the main peak ‘Xianhua’, leaving behind In addition to the deacons, there is only me.
And although I, Nan Linzi, are only an outer disciple in the palace, as a closed disciple of Xilie Daoqing, the master of the Shuwu Hall of the True Monarch Palace, my weight is actually heavier than those deacons combined.
To greet you in place of the master also shows respect for the ancestor of Yunluo.
By the way, when you arrive at the Shuwu Palace, you will first settle in the guest room and rest in the guest room. When the master is free, he will pass on to you, and then you can say what you want.
It is extremely difficult for outsiders to cultivate the ‘Eight or Nine Mysterious Art’ to a human level, but in the eyes of the disciples of the True Monarch Palace, breakthroughs are simple and tight, just follow the tricks and practice step by step…”
Hearing that Nan Linzi kept talking, Zhang Huansheng only answered a few times perfunctorily, but his mind had already dispersed to other places. Qin, with a look of astonishment on his face, secretly thought: “This True Monarch Palace has a profound background, and the mountain gate really looks like a fairyland on earth.”
The two of them chattered endlessly, and the other was absent-minded and walked in the wind without touching the ground. It seemed unpleasant, but in reality, it took only three or two cups of tea to climb to the top of the mountain. in front of the lake.
Stopping in his tracks, he pointed to several ancient bamboo and wood buildings built around the lake, Nan Linzi said, “These are the bamboo buildings for hospitality, there are no one there, you can choose any one. Just stay.”
“Thank you so much for leading the way.” Zhang Huansheng gave Nan Linzi a half salute after hearing the words, and regardless of his embarrassed expression, he chose the wooden building whose portal was facing the sunrise and strolled. walked in.
Looking at his disappearing back, Nan Linzi sullenly muttered, “Good boy, aren’t you just a few years older, you call me a boy, it’s really annoying”, and went to the distance to hide in the mountains and clouds He went to the magnificent palace and temple, and disappeared after a while.
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed. Due to the decree of Emperor Yanhuang, it was no trivial matter to mobilize troops for an expedition to rescue. In particular, the Shuwu Palace had to take on all kinds of responsibilities, so Zhang Huansheng never saw Naxilie. Daoqing.
Fortunately, at every meal time, the deacon brought him carefully cooked delicacies from the mountains and seas, so it was not negligible.
It was not easy to wait until noon four days later, when Xi Lie finally vacated the space and met Zhang Juansheng in the main hall of Jinyang Peak, where the Shuwu Palace was located.
The palaces made of bluestones with squares of square meters are as shocking as the residences of giants. When you walk in the door, you can see the lifelike portraits of the Holy Monarchs hanging on the stone walls facing you.
Like the next old man who is over sixty years old, with three long beards, wearing a plain white robe, and sitting cross-legged with a whisk in hand, he has an air of going out of the dust.
Under the guidance of a true disciple of the True Monarch Palace, Zhang Huansheng came to the old man’s side, and without waiting for the young man who led the way to speak, he respectfully bowed his hands and saluted, and said in a loud voice, “The young man Zhang Youxu has seen Xi Lie Dao. sir.”
Seeing his respectful attitude, the old Taoist sitting cross-legged smiled faintly, “You practice ‘Eight Nine Mysteries’, although you are not a disciple of my True Monarch Palace, you can still be called a ‘post-study boy’, get up and sit down, after all A guest from afar.”
Seeing Xi Lie’s appearance, Zhang Huansheng sneered in his heart, but he straightened his waist calmly, and replied warmly, “Thank you, Daoqing, for the seat.” He sat down on a futon on Xi Lie’s right hand. .
When he was seated, Xi Lie asked bluntly, “I heard that you came with a handwritten letter from the real person of Yunluo, and you want to practice Xuan Gong to break through the secret method?”
“Yes~www.mtlnovel.com~ Zhang Huansheng answered in accordance with the rules of the Taoist sect: “The post-student boy was born in the Chunqiu Academy of the Qi State. Because of his own talent for cultivation, he gave up all kinds of absolute learning and chose ’89xuan’. achievement’…”
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted proudly by Xi Lie: “Although I am a descendant of Yanhuang Miao, I have created the world since the Middle Ages and controlled the universe alone. The power and wealth in the hinterland of Yanhuang are all for me It’s not worth mentioning like a passing glance.
You don’t need to talk about your origins and origins, just bring the letter from Yunluo Zhenren and let me identify the true and false. “
When Zhang Huansheng heard this, he had to answer again, took out the letter written by the real person Yunluo from his arms, and a Taoist boy on the side took it and presented it to Xi Lie.
Xi Lie’s expression turned solemn, he took the letter with both hands, looked at it carefully for a long time, then touched the mark left on the gold paper with his thumb, nodded slightly and said, “This is indeed the thing left by Master Yunluo, you take it today. Send it back to the True Monarch Palace, you can exchange a promise.
It’s just that it is not the responsibility of the Shuwu Hall to pass on the merits. I need to transfer the letter to Mrs. Dongluo in the first seat of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, so that you can get your wish, so just wait for another day. “
“Yes.” Zhang Huansheng could only answer respectfully when he heard the words.
