Chapter 56 Study

Chapter 56 Learning
Some Imperial Spirit Sect disciples needed several generations of iterative good deeds to come up with thirty thousand good deeds.

The third type, becoming one hundred and eighty-eight Ying, cultivating to the ninth level of Qi Refining, the sect would issue a free Foundation Establishment Pill.

The Royal Spirit Sect had a perfect disciple cultivation mechanism, there were one hundred and eighty-eight Ying, seventy-two Xiu, and nine Jie.

One hundred and eight people were selected from amongst the tens of thousands of Qi Refining cultivators and carefully cultivated, with five times the cultivation resources of ordinary Qi Refining cultivators, seventy-two people were selected from amongst the thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators and carefully cultivated, with three times the cultivation resources of ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, and nine people were selected from amongst the fifty-odd JieDan cultivators and carefully cultivated, with two times the cultivation resources of ordinary JieDan cultivators.

Those who are selected as one hundred and eight Ying have the privilege of prioritizing foundation building, and when they cultivate to the ninth level of Qi refining, the clan will provide a foundation building elixir, those who are selected as seventy-two Xiu, and when they cultivate to the great circle of foundation building, the clan will provide a conjugation elixir, and those who are selected as nine Jie, and when they cultivate to the great circle of conjugation, the clan will provide a conjugation elixir.

One hundred and eighty-eight Ying, seventy-two Xiu and nine Jie are the elite of the Royal Spirit Sect, and the future successors of the Royal Spirit Sect, the Royal Spirit Sect’s high-ranking cultivators and the heads of the various halls, ninety percent of them come from the one hundred and eighty-eight Ying, seventy-two Xiu and nine Jie, so it can be seen that the content of the gold is very high.

If you want to be selected as one hundred and eighty-eight Ying, you either need to make significant achievements, or be proficient in some kind of skill, such as alchemy, refining, talisman making, array formation, brewing, or get a very good ranking in the sect’s grand competition.

Of course, in order to become one hundred and eighty-eight Ying, one must first have a quota.

There was an age limit for the One Hundred and Eighty-Eight Ying, and if you were over sixty and still unable to build a foundation, you would have to give up your spot, but the cultivation resources were twice as much as an ordinary Qi Refining Cultivator.

The seventy-two Xiushi and the nine Jie did not have an age limit, and would only give up their places if they died or advanced to a higher realm.

Every three years, a small competition is held in each peak, the rewards are issued by the peak, there are age and cultivation restrictions, the clan competition, mainly gas refining and foundation cultivators to participate, there is no age limit.

If there is a quota, it can be selected from the grand competition, or from among the skillful talents, disciples with very good qualifications, directly selected, mostly from the grand competition, this way is relatively fair.

If you want to be selected as one hundred and eighty-eight Ying and seventy-two Xiu, it’s not up to a certain elder to decide, the sect will take out the best, form a review team, conduct a comprehensive examination of the selected person, and then report it to the headmaster, and hand it over to the council of elders for discussion.

As for the selection of the Nine Jie, it needs to be made by the three YuanYing cultivators.

It was widely known that there were three YuanYing cultivators in the Imperial Spirit Sect, and according to Qian Dafu’s analysis, the Imperial Spirit Sect didn’t necessarily have only three YuanYing cultivators, and there were probably hidden YuanYing cultivators.

This was normal, YuanYing cultivators were the top fighting force of a sect, and the number of top fighting forces could not be widely known.

More than 20,000 years ago, the Royal Spirit Sect had two YuanYing cultivators on the surface, the human race and the barbarians broke out in a great war, the two YuanYing cultivators of the Royal Spirit Sect fell in the war, after the war, individual forces wanted to annex the Royal Spirit Sect, the YuanYing cultivators came to the door in person, the result was that the Royal Spirit Sect appeared to have a YuanYing mid-stage cultivator, easily defeated the other party, and this is how they kept the Taoist lineage.

If you want to hide your strength, you also need to have a certain strength, if there are only two YuanYing cultivators, it is better to show up all of them, the deterrent effect of a YuanYing cultivator is poor.

If one is a Heterogeneous Spiritual Root, Dual Spiritual Root, Celestial Spiritual Root, or a Spiritual Body person, he or she will be able to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill after cultivating to the ninth level of Qi Refining, and will have a high probability of being accepted by a JieDan cultivator as his or her disciple, and may be accepted by a YuanYing cultivator as his or her disciple.

Shen Long did not consider breaking into the Thousand Demon Tower, it was too difficult to break into eighteen layers in a row, the eighteenth layer would manifest nine late first stage demonic beasts to attack the intruder, and there were seventeen more layers in front of him, and mana consumption was a big problem.

The second one is also not suitable for Shen Long, he wants to save up thirty thousand good deeds before he turns forty, it is too difficult.

Shen Long had some heart for the third way, if he was able to become one hundred and eighty-eight Ying, he could also obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill, of course, this path might not be possible, but he still had the Royal Spirit Order, and the Royal Spirit Order could also obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Two years later, a small competition was held, Shen Long needed to get a good ranking in the small competition, if he couldn’t get a good ranking in the small competition, let alone expect to get a good ranking in the big competition.

Shen Long had a clear plan for the future, and that was to obtain a good ranking in the small competition, and then obtain a good ranking in the big competition, of course, this was only his personal plan, and things might not necessarily go that way.

Very often, plans cannot catch up with changes, but without even a plan, it is hard to see hope after one day.

Shen Long had a good talent in arts, he wanted to get a good ranking in the small competition, he could work more on arts, and strive to cultivate a first-order spell to great perfection before the small competition.

Shen Long sat up and applied his energy to cultivate. A night’s time quickly passed.

Early the next morning, the sky had just dawned, accompanied by three loud bells ringing, a new day began, and the disciples of the Royal Spirit Sect busied themselves with their respective duties.

Shen Long changed into the Dust Avoidance Clothing, the Dust Avoidance Clothing was warm in winter and cool in summer, it was refined from the silk of the first-order Green Jade Silkworm, it was a lower-grade magic artifact, as long as it was injected with mana, it could vibrate away the dust and dirt on the clothes.

He arrived at the Spirit Meal Pavilion and saw that some disciples were having their meals.

Shen Long took out his identity nameplate and received breakfast, a bowl of noodles and two steamed buns, the noodles were unlimited and eaten until full.

With a sweep of his gaze, he saw Ye Yutang and Ye Yuyi and walked over with his breakfast.

“Good morning! Senior Sister Ye!”

Shen Long opened his mouth to greet them.

“Morning! Senior Brother Shen!”

Ye Yutang smiled faintly.

Shen Long sat down and used his breakfast while chatting with Ye Yutang and Ye Yuyi, mainly asking them what they wanted to plant, Ye Yutang and Ye Yuyi both wanted to plant spirit fruit trees, it seemed that Lin Cheng hadn’t lied.

After having breakfast, they left the Spirit Meal Pavilion and came to the Teaching Pavilion.

The lobby was spacious and bright, in the center was a ten foot round high platform, surrounded by a large number of long green tables, there were already quite a number of qi refining cultivators here, mostly new disciples.

A cyan colored long table could sit two disciples, Sun Sen had not arrived yet, the disciples were chatting.

“Senior brother Shen! Here!”

Qian Dafu saw Shen Long and waved his hand with him.

Shen Long looked along the source of the voice and saw Qian Dafu.

Gu Tianhong and Tang Yu Ting were sitting in front of Qian Dafu, and he wondered if it was Qian Dafu’s intention.

Shen Long walked over and shared a table with Qian Dafu.

“Senior Brother Qian, you still need to learn the basics of Immortal Cultivation?”

Shen Long was puzzled.

“It’s my honor to be able to learn with all of you senior brothers and sisters.”

Qian Dafu said with a smile.

He mainly came over to get close, to see if he could make a few deals, and also to expand his network, maybe someone within the new disciples could come out on top.
