My Avatar Has Entries - Chapter 175

  Chapter 175 Apprenticeship decision

  Jiuyang Zongshan Gate, Piaomiao Hall of Danxia Blessed Land.

  In the hall, there are thousands of auspicious mist, surrounded by fresh air, and three people are sitting on the jade platform.

  Everyone’s appearance is blurred, it seems that the light and shadow are erratic, as real as an illusion, and you can tell at a glance that they are all incarnations of light.

   Huo Enrong, who was sitting in the middle, glanced at the other two, and said in a deep voice: “Young Daoist Li, You Daoist Yu, both of you must have heard about Lin Shen.”

  The Master Li on the left nodded slightly, and said with a smile: “That’s natural, the first cultivator of the Nine Suns Sect to achieve a first-grade spiritual vein, the entire mountain gate has already spread the word, how could I not know?”

  Principal Yu on the right also nodded slightly.

Huo Enrong pondered and said: “Being a monk with a first-grade spiritual vein is not as good as the head of the master. What’s more, this kid has no background and has worked hard all the way on his own. In this way, he can still achieve a first-grade spiritual vein. Mindfulness, it’s really amazing!”

   “This son has a great future, and he has formed a relationship with my master and apprentice early. In my opinion, it is better to be brought under the sect as soon as possible. How about the two friends?”

  Headmaster Li stroked his beard and said with a smile: “Very good, there will be three great competitions soon, if there is one more genius from my master-student line, then there will be another one added to the quota for participating in the three great competitions.”

   “I have no objection either.” Director Yu said slowly.

  The voice was unexpectedly melodious and melodious, as pleasant as the sound of a mountain spring, it was actually a Taoist nun.

   Seeing that both of them had no objection, Huo Enrong showed a smile on his face, and said calmly:

   “Since that’s the case, let one of the three of us take Lin Shen as his apprentice.”

  Principal Li was about to speak, but Principal Yu beside him had already spoken.

   “I’m here to take Lin Shen as a disciple.”

  As soon as these words came out, both Huo Enrong and Master Li were surprised.

Although Yuanzhu Yu is one of the three masters of the master-student lineage, he is obsessed with cultivation on weekdays and rarely pays attention to foreign affairs. It is up to the two of them to discuss and decide.

   It is the first time that I have taken the initiative to take over the affairs like this now!

  But after thinking about it, Huo Enrong and Master Li were relieved again.

   After all, he is a cultivation genius with a first-grade spiritual vein, with a bright future, so it is not surprising that Yu Yuan is motivated.

  Huo Enrong and Li Yuan had many true disciples, but in contrast to Yuan Master Yu, there was only one true disciple left under the majestic Pill Art Academy.

   It was rare for her to open her mouth to accept Lin Shen as an apprentice, Huo Enrong and Master Li couldn’t compete with her for a while.

  The two looked at each other, and agreed after a little thought.

   “Then leave it to Fellow Daoist Yu!”

   After staying in the East District for two days, Lin Shen bid farewell to Xiao Ai and returned to Jiuyang Daoyuan.

  As soon as I stepped into the monastery, I saw a paper crane flying towards me.

  Lin Shen reached out to take it, opened it, and found that it was Si Yuanpei’s Feishu, and asked him to come to see him as soon as he returned to the monastery.

   “Speaking of which, once a disciple of the Taoist Academy is promoted to a monk, he will automatically graduate from the Taoist Academy.”

  Lin Shen couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.

   Speaking of it, he entered the Taoist monastery for about two years, and most of the time was either outside training or retreat. The time spent in the Taoist monastery was less than one-fifth.

  Even he himself didn’t expect to become a monk so quickly.

  But soon, Lin Shen calmed down.

  Looking back in the future, Jiuyang Taoist Temple is only one of the countless footholds on the way to the peak of his cultivation, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it.

   Arriving at the courtyard where the Head of the Supreme Court lived, Xie Jingsheng was already waiting in front of the door.

  Seeing Lin Shen, a smile appeared on his face.

   “Master Lin. Lin.”

  Seeing that Xie Jingsheng didn’t know how to address him, Lin Shen smiled and said, “Brother, just call me the same as before.”

  Xie Jingsheng smiled coyly: “Junior Brother Lin!”

  While speaking, Xie Jingsheng sighed inwardly.

  I saw Lin Shen a year ago when I was conquering the Tigers. At that time, Lin Shen was just a famous disciple of the Lower Court.

  Who would have thought that Lin Shen would become a monk in less than a year.

   It makes people feel like a trance like falling into a dream!

  Looking at himself, he has not even reached the ninth level of Mingqiao, let alone condensed spiritual veins.

  Thinking of this, Xie Jingsheng couldn’t help feeling complicated.

   Fortunately, he quickly collected his thoughts and turned around to lead the way.

   “Let’s go, Junior Brother Lin, Master is waiting for you inside!”

  The two walked in side by side.

  It is still the classic and quiet tea room.

  Xie Jingsheng turned around and left after delivering it to the door of the tea room.

  Lin Shen pushed the door open and entered.

  The layout of the tea room is still very simple and unusual, except for a coffee table and two futons.

  Si Yuanpei sat behind the coffee table opposite the door.

  Different from the past, when he saw Lin Shen this time, he no longer sat down peacefully, but stood up long, bowing his head to salute.

   “Friend Daoist Lin, you’re being polite.”

  Lin Shen was slightly taken aback, and returned the gift with a strange expression.

  This subtle change in expression did not escape Si Yuanpei’s eyes, he smiled faintly and said:

   “To be a monk is to be a member of my generation. You and I are both monks in the Yunling period, and we should get along as equals in the future.”

   After a pause, he said another sentence.

   “As for how you and Jingsheng get along with each other in private, that’s your freedom.”

   Obviously overheard the conversation between Lin Shen and Xie Jingsheng outside.

  Lin Shen nodded thoughtfully.

  The monk is the backbone of a sect.

  Being promoted to a monk means that he has left the ranks of ordinary disciples and has begun to step into the ranks of high-level students.

  Si Yuanpei, who is as high as the head of the Taoist Academy, now has to treat him with an equal attitude.

   This is the status of a monk!

   Once out of the cage, you will have the rights and status that ordinary people dream of!

  After Lin Shen sat down, Si Yuanpei waved his sleeve robe over the surface of the coffee table, and instantly saw a set of exquisite tea sets on the coffee table.

  Si Yuanpei then flicked his fingers lightly, and a golden bean dropped to the side, turning into a boy with red skin and white teeth and horns on the top of his head. He knelt down obediently and started making tea.

  After a short while in the tea room, there is a faint fragrance of tea.

when.

  A cup of tea was gently placed in front of Lin Shen, and the fragrance of the young leaves in the cup was refreshing.

   “This is the best Yunlongpu tea, try it.”

  Lin Shen picked up the teacup and took a sip. He felt that the aura was pervasive, moistening his lungs, leaving a faint fragrance between his teeth and cheeks. He nodded unconsciously, thinking that the tea is good.

  After drinking the tea, Si Yuanpei finally got down to business.

   “Friend Daoist Lin, what grade of spiritual veins did you forge?”

   “Yipin.” Lin Shen put down his teacup and said.

  Si Yuanpei nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: “The matter of first-grade spiritual veins is of great importance, so fellow Daoist Lin don’t think I’m too busy to ask more questions.”

  Seeing Lin Shen smiling and shaking his head, he continued:

   “According to the rules of the Taoist Academy, disciples who become monks will automatically graduate from the Taoist Academy and be given the status of true disciples. Therefore, from today onwards, Fellow Daoist Lin will be a true disciple of the sect!”

  Lin Shen took another sip of tea, but didn’t answer.

  These are all things that should be done, and the really important things are yet to come.

   As expected, Si Yuanpei’s voice sounded again, this time with a little more solemnity.

   “According to the sect’s rules, true disciples will usually worship under a certain elder and become their direct disciples. They can pass on the Dao, or join a certain court to take the position of deacon.”

  What Si Yuanpei said were the two most common ways out for the disciples of Nine Yang Sect to be promoted to monks.

  The former is actually apprenticeship.

   Those who can take this path are either descendants of aristocratic families, elders of the same clan or elders who are close to the aristocratic family as elders. As long as they are promoted to monks, they will naturally have channels to learn from teachers and teach them the Dao method and the secrets of Xuangong.

  Either they are civilian children with outstanding qualifications, who are appreciated and valued by a certain elder, and thus accepted as the mantle.

   And this is also the origin of the formation of the master-student lineage!

  Only those monks who have neither background nor qualifications are outstanding enough will choose the second way out.

Such people are often of mediocre aptitude. They have spent decades in the sect and were lucky enough to be promoted to monks by chance. However, their spiritual veins are inferior and they are old. He took up a deacon position to spend his old age peacefully.

“No one in the sect has ever forged a first-grade spiritual vein before. Your matter has caused quite a stir in the entire sect. Many elders have expressed their intention to accept you as a disciple, but after Elder Zhao and Yuanzhu Yu After making the move, they all flinched.” Si Yuanpei said slowly.

   “Who are these two?” Lin Shen expressed doubts at the right time.

  In fact, he doesn’t know much about the high-level relations of the sect.

  Si Yuanpei also knew this, and patiently explained.

   “Zhao Quan, one of the three surnames, the Patriarch of the Zhao family, a monk of Xuanguang Jiuzhong, one of the most promising monks in the sect to achieve the alchemy. Speaking of which, his daughter is from the same class as you. Zhao Xueying, you should know him.”

   Zhao Xueying’s father!

  Lin Shen was slightly surprised, but he did not expect that the aristocratic family would also offer him an olive branch, and it was the Zhao family, one of the three surnames.

  Si Yuanpei was not surprised at all.

  Lin Shen’s potential is really amazing!

  As long as the aristocratic family forces are not stupid, they will definitely not miss the opportunity to win over Lin Shen.

  And the candidates they put out are also very particular.

  Not to mention that Zhao Quan himself is a Xuanguang Ninth Layer powerhouse, it is said that his daughter Zhao Xueying has a good relationship with Lin Shen.

   Accept Lin Shen as an apprentice, if things go well in the future, maybe he can change from master and apprentice to son-in-law.

  Using marriage to tie up talents has always been a forte of the aristocratic powers!

   After taking a sip of tea, Si Yuanpei continued after Lin Shen digested the news:

   “Yu Siyu, the master of Yu, with the ninth level of Xuanguang cultivation, is also one of the most promising monks in the sect to achieve alchemy, and he is also the master of the alchemy academy!”

   “Master Yu rarely accepts apprentices, and he has only had two apprentices over the years. This time, he offered to accept you as an apprentice, which is enough to show that you have excellent aptitude!”

   Speaking of this, Si Yuanpei was as indifferent as Si Yuanpei, and he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

  Ordinary true disciples want to worship a famous teacher, which one is not asking for thousands and thousands of people, and exhausting all their connections?

  Where, like Lin Shen, a lot of elders have jumped out to accept apprentices before they open their mouths to ask for apprentices.

   Among them, there are even powerful monks at the level of Elder Zhao and Dean Yu!

   These two people don’t know how many years they have confiscated their direct disciples.

   “Elder Zhao and Master Yu are both masters of the sect, with profound cultivation. No matter which sect you worship, it will be of great benefit to your future growth. You may wish to think about it!”

  Although Si Yuanpei belongs to the master-student line, he still spoke objectively, and did not take the opportunity to belittle the power of the aristocratic family and elevate the master-student line.

  He didn’t even bother to do it.

  Lin Shen fell into deep thought.

  He doesn’t really care much.

  Apprenticeship to him is actually just for the convenience of obtaining cultivation techniques.

  So it doesn’t seem to make any difference to him who he worships under.

  Although he and the aristocratic forces seem to be in conflict, it can be attributed to the end. The only ones who really have a problem with him are the two aristocratic families, the Yan family and the Kuang family.

  The former has already been cleaned up, while the latter is just a prominent family, far from being able to represent the power of the family.

  He really wants to worship Zhao Quan as his teacher and become a part of the power of the aristocratic family. If the Kuang family wants to take revenge on him, the other aristocratic families will probably be the first to refuse!

  Of course, it seems good to pay homage to that Master Yu.

   “One side is the power of the aristocratic family, and the other side is the line of master and apprentice. It is not so much about apprenticeship as it is about choosing a camp.”

  Lin Shen secretly shook his head.

  Unless he doesn’t want to acquire more powerful cultivation techniques and is willing to slow down his cultivation, standing on the sidelines is definitely unavoidable.

  After thinking for a while, Lin Shen had an idea in his mind, and asked in a deep voice:

   “Master Si, which one is good at flying swords, Elder Zhao or Master Yu?”

  Si Yuanpei was stunned for a moment, he didn’t expect Lin Shen to ask such a question.

   After realizing it, he took a deep look at Lin Shen.

   “Do you want to become a sword cultivator?”

   “Somewhat interested.”

  Si Yuanpei nodded without asking any further questions, and said, “Master Yu is known for her strong swordsmanship, and her two disciples were also well-known swordsmen among the younger generation.”

  Lin Shen stopped hesitating and made a decision immediately.

   “I choose Yuanzhu Yu!”

   “Okay, let’s go, I will take you into the mountain gate to meet Yuanzhu Yu now!”

  The director of the department stood up and walked out of the tea room.

  Although he would not belittle the power of the aristocratic family, he was not a pedantic person either. Seeing that Lin Shen had already made a decision, he immediately decided to finalize the matter of apprenticeship as soon as possible, so as to avoid long nights and dreams and side effects.

  Like Jiuyang Taoist Temple, the gate of Jiuyangzong is also located in a different space, or in the cave of heaven and earth.

  The location is somewhere above the central area of ​​Linlong City.

  When Si Yuanpei used a talisman to open the entrance, and a gap opened in the sky, Lin Shen immediately felt the abundant spiritual energy leaking from it, which was far stronger than Jiuyang Taoist Temple and Xuandu Mountain.

   “As expected of a blessed land-level cave!” Lin Shen secretly sighed.

   “True disciples are already eligible to obtain an exclusive training cave in the mountain gate. After you worship Master Yu as your teacher, you can go to the Gongde Academy to choose a training cave.” Si Yuanpei said casually.

  Lin Shen’s heart skipped a beat when he heard the words.

  Jiuyang Zong Mountain Gate is a blessed land at the level of a blessed place, and the caves opened up in it are at least at the level of Qigong.

   Even if it is not as good as the place with the most aura in Jiuyang Daoyuan, it is almost the same.

   “Let’s go.”

  Si Yuanpei flew into the entrance first.

  Lin Shen came to his senses and followed without hesitation.

  After a flash in front of his eyes, Lin Shen looked again and found that the scenery in front of him had undergone earth-shaking changes.
