"I've met Senior Uncle Qiao, Senior Brother Yun, Senior Sister Luo, and Senior Brother Cai."

I followed Wu Tianen to the Chonghua Temple, which is actually a Taoist temple of the Chonghua Sect in Yiyang Mansion, and met four people from the Chonghua Sect who came with them.

Wu Tianen had already informed the four people, and Qiao Zhun had no objections to this situation, but there was a sense of regret and regret in Wu Tianen's words, and he was also a little curious.

A Taoist with poor spiritual roots and no one interested in him at the age of 20, who is difficult to enter the Tao, is clearly a "connected household" of the Jiulian Sect who took advantage of the situation to push people to the Chonghua Sect.

Our sect is just a favor, sending people away if they are unable to enter the Tao after one year, and providing them with the benefits of being a registered disciple for one year. Why does Senior Brother still feel that it is a pity?

Qiao Zhun is also in his early seventies. He is now at the seventh level of Qi training, which can be said to be in his prime. Wu Tianen is a generational person who only started five years earlier than him. However, Wu Tianen is already at the first level of foundation building and is a true immortal.

Master.

Yun He and Luo Xiuyue were a pair of Taoist couples. They looked to be only about thirty years old, but it was difficult to tell the age of the cultivators from their faces. Chen Huaisheng estimated that they should be around fifty years old, while Cai Jinyang's age

Slightly smaller, probably around forty.

After some pleasantries, Wu Tianen signaled everyone to stop being polite: "Okay, Junior Brother Qiao, Yunhe, Xiuyue, Jinyang, and Huaisheng have just joined our sect and have not yet entered the Tao. They have no understanding of our world of cultivation and the rules of our sect.

Clearly, you can talk to him more when you come down. He is a native of Liao County and is very familiar with the situation in Fengtong Ridge. Brother Yi Dao of Jiulian Sect has made a clear promise to investigate the murders that have occurred in Yiyang in the past two years.

After all, there may be some people from the Jiulian Sect. At that time, we will also cooperate with the Jiulian Sect to find out the murder of the nephew Zhaolin, which can be regarded as an explanation to the other sect..."

By the time Wu Tianen and Qiao Zhun went to discuss the matter, there were only four people left in the hall.

Yunhe is a tall and thin man with a sharp face. Not to mention, he wears a Taoist robe that is empty, and he really looks like a crane in the clouds.

Luo Xiuyue looked to be no more than thirty years old, with average appearance, but a good figure. She wore a common women's crown bun with a white silk ribbon tied at the end of her hair, which gave her a bit more elegance.

"Junior brother, you are the last disciple of our Chonghua Sect this year. Our Chonghua Sect has never recruited disciples in the autumn. It is really rare for Master Wu to be so successful this time."

Luo Xiuyue looked at Chen Huaisheng with a smile and joked: "It's really rare that you haven't entered Taoism at the age of twenty, so you have to work hard."

Chen Huaisheng also heard that there was no malice in the other party's words, and said in a panic: "Senior sister is laughing at me, I come from a poor family, I awakened my spiritual roots late, and then I was idle outside for a few years, so..."

In just a few words, the topic was brought to his own experiences in the past few years, and several people were greatly moved.

The Chonghua Sect can only be regarded as a local mid-level sect, with less than two hundred members in total. It can be ranked high in Yi County, but it is not worth mentioning in the entire Zhao Dynasty.

No more than fifteen disciples are recruited every year, and these fifteen disciples can only be regarded as registered disciples. Only those who have entered the Tao can be regarded as formal disciples.

But basically half of them will be eliminated because they are unable to enter the Tao. Only about eight people can become formal disciples every year, with the highest number being ten and the lowest number being only five.

"It is indeed a pity for you these past few years. Since you are from Liao County, why didn't you join Lingyun Sect from the beginning?" Yun He frowned and said: "Lingyun Sect recruits at least thirty people in Yiyang Mansion every year.

Disciple, you have every chance."

"Senior Brother Yun, my first stop was to visit the Lingyun Sect. There were more than a hundred people visiting the Lingyun Sect. The Lingyun Sect screened them and only accepted less than ten people. I didn't even meet anyone from the Lingyun Sect.

Was sent away..."

Yiyang Prefecture has a population of over one million, and every year there will be no less than 200 innate Taoist cultivators who awaken their spiritual roots. Even if the large sects will select some through induction, there will still be many left for the locals.

In small and medium-sized sects, people like Chen Huaisheng who awakened their spiritual roots at the age of fourteen have no chance at all.

It can be said that without Xuan Chimei's contribution, without Yi Chuyang's recommendation and the coincidence of the incident where a Chonghua disciple was murdered in Liao County, Chen Huaisheng would never have had the opportunity to enter Wu Tianen's sight, let alone become a Chonghua disciple.

He is a disciple of the Hua sect.

Luo Xiuyue couldn't help but roll her eyes at her partner. She was a very unsophisticated man, so asking this question obviously hurt her self-esteem.

Seeing what Luo Xiuyue wanted to say with an apologetic smile, Chen Huaisheng interrupted calmly: "Senior sister, I know that senior brother also cares about me and has no other thoughts. In fact, I also know that my talent is not good, but I still want to

I have to work hard, even if there is a slight chance, I am willing to give it a try, no matter what the result is, it is better than going back to the countryside to eat and wait to die, right?"

Several people were slightly moved.

After running around for many years, experiencing so much, and suffering so much, there was only one year before the deadline for entering the Tao, but they still failed to enter the Tao. If it were them, I am afraid that at this time, they would have lost confidence and consider looking for a way out.

But people still pursue it tirelessly and persistently. This kind of situation is really rare.

Besides, the everlasting immortality is fascinating, but the cultivation of immortality depends most on the qualifications and endowments.

Everyone knows this truth, and it is true in every sect. If your qualifications and talents are not good enough, no matter how hard you try, it will not help.

Cultivation in the Immortal Way has never been as cruel as the saying "Kung Fu grinds an iron pestle into a needle" or "The Foolish Old Man moves a mountain".

But this man obviously didn’t want to give up until he reached the Yellow River, and even felt a bit like he would not give up even when he reached the Yellow River.

"Junior brother, there is still one year left. There are many people from various sects who have entered the Tao at the last moment. You may not be able to do it. If you spend more time and understanding during this year, you may be able to enlighten the Tao overnight."

Luo Xiuyue's words were not comforting at all, and it was not uncommon for various sects to experience situations such as surviving from desperate situations.

Especially since enlightenment is a mysterious and mysterious thing, just like awakening spiritual roots, you just suddenly have a feeling and it's done.

The same is true for enlightenment, and Chen Huaisheng also felt that he had touched the threshold of enlightenment just the night before, and was infinitely close.

"Thank you, senior sister, for your concern and encouragement. I understand." Chen Huaisheng did not want to keep the topic focused on himself, and took the initiative to jump to the topic of his trip to Liao County. "This time, I went to Fengtongling to explore, are there any

Do you need to prepare in advance?”

Yun He and Luo Xiuyue exchanged glances with Cai Jinyang on the side, and then both shook their heads at the same time: "That depends on the two uncles."

Chen Huaisheng keenly sensed something from the changes in the eyes of the three people. It seemed that the murder of the Fengtongling disciples was not that simple, and there might be some unknown inside story inside.

After lunch, we will leave for Tate County.

Chen Huaisheng and Cai Jinyang lived in the same house and took a short break.

Cai Jinyang didn't speak much before, and Luo Xiuyue basically did the talking. It wasn't until the two of them were left alone that Chen Huaisheng realized that Cai Jinyang was actually a talkative person.

"There are about one hundred and eighty-three disciples in our sect. This includes the fifteen disciples who were recruited during Jingzhe. Now including you, it will be one hundred and eighty-four..."

"The Zongmen Mountain Gate is located between Langshan Mountain and Panshan Mountain. The two mountains are close to each other and stretch for 120 miles. The Haoyue Pond, Zihua Stream, Shuanglong Spring, Foguang Cave, Yingwo Village, floating smoke and greenery make it a magnificent sight...

"

"You mean Master Wu?... He broke through to the ninth level of Qi training twelve years ago, jumped to the foundation building level two years ago, and is now at the first level of foundation building. He is also one of the five foundation building deacons of our Chonghua sect,..."

"You mean the leader? Haha, I haven't seen you for more than ten years. The leader has been in seclusion for a long time. If there is something important, you can burn incense to wake him up. In emergencies, there are also special ways to contact you..."
