Chapter 215: Credit, Silence, Method Selection, Apprenticeship(1/2)
Chapter 215: Merit, silently, choose method, and become a disciple
Since ancient times, the interests of the sects have been the same. How could it be wrong to use oneself to push others?
After hearing Wu Tong's words, Wei Wuji's heart was extremely transparent. He understood that as soon as his battle record was announced, the accompanying trouble would be endless. Moreover, this trouble was much greater than the Ling family's trouble. The Ling family was only a Yuanying True Lord, and they might not know their situation. However, the Six Dao Demon Sect is a big sect that is on par with the Five Elements Sect.
At this time, Wei Wujiren was a person who was arrogant, and he knew how to make a choice, not to mention that he was not that kind of person. At this moment, Wei Wuji replied, "Master Wu, I understand that if you don't have some false reputation, you just need it. As long as you can enter the inner door."
"This is not just a false reputation, but there are many rewards? A sect like yours will not be stingy with great rewards. Some things may not be able to buy with a large handful of spirit stones." Wu Tong looked at Wei Wuji and said with a smile.
"Master Wu, don't test your disciples like this. Since you have made up your mind, no matter what reward you are, it has nothing to do with me." Wei Wuji's face was solemn and his tone was extremely calm.
"Very good!" Wu Tong praised with a laugh, "There are talents in the country and each has been leading the way for fifty years! Geniuses are common in the world, but the number of people who can truly achieve great achievements is not as good as those of middle-aged people, or even those with qualifications. This is not because of the large number of middle-aged people, but more importantly, the innate arrogance of geniuses.
Perhaps, many geniuses are well concealed on the surface, and perhaps even they themselves feel that they are already very modest. However, at critical moments, this kind of arrogance naturally emerges, not understanding the truth, not knowing the progress and retreat, which eventually leads to a mediocrity or a death.
After a pause, Wu Tong smiled and continued, "You are a genius, a real genius. This does not refer to qualifications, but to your entire person. Genius can soar into the sky and become a myth that hundreds of millions of people admire and admire, and can also be depressed and become a laughing stock that ten thousand people laugh.
Today, I will give you a sentence: No matter how high your cultivation level is, don’t be dizzy and confused by the achievements in front of you, but recognize your own level. Because there are always people in this world who need you to look up to, and such people are definitely not something you can offend.”
"Thank you, Master Wu, for your advice. I must keep it in mind and never dare to forget it at all!" Wei Wuji understood that what Wu Tong said was all good words, so he nodded solemnly.
"Okay, since that's the case, I won't talk too much!" Wu Tong's smile appeared again and said, "Now, you are my Five Elements Sect, a formal inner disciple!"
As he said that, Wu Tong made a move in the room, and a jade talisman suddenly appeared in the void. At this time, light burst out from Wu Tong's eyes, and the ripples of thought power rippled rapidly, and the jade talisman that hit him trembled endlessly.
At this moment, Wei Wuji felt that the aura that surged from Wu Tong's body was like a towering mountain and a vast ocean, far beyond his understanding of Jindan Zhenren.
"Is this still the real person of Jindan?" Wei Wuji felt a deep doubt in his heart. But the next moment, he felt relieved, because he himself was not a real person of Jindan, and he had never seen several real persons in Jindan, so how could he estimate the limits of the real person of Jindan so accurately.
In a moment, Wu Tong's power was completely subsided and he returned to his original smile-shaped appearance. He didn't see how he acted, so he said, "This is the nameplate of the jade talisman that represents your inner disciple. In the future, if you hold this jade talisman and the Five Elements Peak, you can enter and exit without any obstacles.
Of course, if there is no reason, you cannot come here casually, because every bit of spiritual energy here is useful. Even if you are a disciple of the Five Elements Sect, you cannot be wasted without enough credit and strength."
After hearing Wu Tong's words, Wei Wuji couldn't help but add a sentence in his heart, "There is still a background. It's okay for Senior Brother Xu Zhang to work so hard. He is not motivated like Peng Zun, and always wants to exploit the new disciples. Didn't he stay on this Five Elements Peak every day? Why don't people say that he wasted his spiritual energy?"
"I understand, you must be thinking about the background now!" Although Wei Wuji's expression had not changed, Wu Tong seemed to be able to penetrate a person's heart.
Wu Tong's expression became solemn again, and said solemnly, "You must remember that background, luck, and opportunity can also be counted in credit and strength. Others have it, but you don't. This is the advantage of others and your disadvantages. If you can directly join the wall of the head uncle, then you will be buried on this Five Elements Peak every day, and no one will think there is anything wrong with it."
"I understand, Master Wu, don't worry, I know what to do!" Wei Wuji bowed deeply to Wu Tong.
"Okay, I still understand your character, so I won't say much." Wu Tong smiled again and said, "Now, let's talk about your rewards!"
Wei Wuji did not ask, but listened quietly to Wu Tong's statement.
"You have broken the record of the promotion of Qi Refining Disciple to build a foundation, and this record will not be broken again in the future. Therefore, according to the charter of our Five Elements Sect, you can receive 100 high-level spirit stones, one low-level treasure, and a hundred spiritual pills that can promote cultivation at this level. You will be given priority to purchasing spiritual materials or elixirs in the sect at a time.
This year, do you want to collect it now?" Wu Tong asked.
Wei Wuji asked, "What every year means is that as long as I am still alive, I can get it?"
"No, so you should be glad that you have good courage and luck, and have made an eternal record!" Wu Tong said with a smile.
Hearing this, Wei Wuji's brows gathered up at that time. It was not that the rewards given by the Five Elements Sect were not generous enough. However, except for the annual opportunity to purchase spiritual materials or elixirs, he could not use the rest of the rewards now. After obtaining them, they would be replaced with spirit stones.
However, the Five Elements Sect itself produces spirit stones. As a disciple of the Five Elements Sect, he will undoubtedly make more profits from obtaining spirit stones from within the sect than selling them outside. It is a waste to sell the elixir and magical instruments.
After wandering for a while, Wei Wuji asked hesitantly, "Master Wu, can you not receive these rewards for the time being and accumulate them?"
"Yes, my mind is indeed flexible." Wu Tong said with a smile, "I deliberately didn't remind you, just to see if you would be fascinated by the little profits in front of you. You did not disappoint me. Tell you that these rewards can not only be accumulated, but also converted into your contribution. Our Five Elements Sect has always been rewarded for merits, and if there are mistakes, you will be punished!
The rewards earned in exchange for merit are definitely much better than things sold with spirit stones. Now, do you want to convert them?"
"Of course, but I want to stay with the opportunity to purchase spiritual materials or elixirs first once a year." Wei Wuji replied at the time.
"Okay, come with me now!" Wu Tong stood up, left his room, and walked to the third floor.
Wei Wuji naturally followed closely. Soon, Wei Wuji followed Wu Tong to another hall. There were two big characters on the plaque in the hall - merits and demerits!
In the Hall of Merits and Demerits, there was also a foundation-building disciple on duty. When he saw Wu Tong coming in, he quickly stood up and bowed, shouting: "Master Wu!"
Wu Tong waved his hand casually, without explaining anything, and said, "You go out and wait outside first!"
"Yes!" The disciple who was on duty at the Hall of Merits and Demerits responded without any hesitation and then left. When he left, he closed the door of the hall.
On the dome of the hall, there are countless fine grains of sand floating, forming a brilliant galaxy. Stars dotted, and in the hall, there is a warm light.
Wu Tong's eyes rose slightly, and then his hands suddenly moved, and countless dense afterimages swayed in the void. In an instant, they merged into one, creating a magic seal. The magic seal pressed towards the galaxy in the sky, setting off time, and a huge wave was like a waterfall against the flow, soaring into the sky and rushing into the galaxy above his head.
The galaxy turned, and a vortex appeared after a moment, and a foot-long scroll spit out from the inside. The scroll slowly fell from the air. When it was about to reach a height of one person, Wu Tong changed his handprints again and shot out a dazzling golden light. The golden light hit the scroll, and the scroll stood spontaneously in the void, slowly spreading, about three feet long.
Wei Wuji looked closely and saw that there were dense small characters on it. The leftmost column of characters had the least number of words, with only eight. Wei Wuji saw it the most clearly, and wrote the "Book of Merits and Demerits of the Disciples of the Five Elements Sect."
It is obvious that this scroll-style magic weapon is specially used to record the merits and demerits of disciples of the Five Elements Sect throughout their lives. At this time, Wu Tong suddenly spoke, "Wei Wuji!"
When Wei Wuji heard this, he quickly responded loudly, "Here!"
However, as soon as he said that he was wrong, he knew that he was wrong. Because Wu Tong didn't have the slightest meaning of looking at him, his eyes were fixed on the scroll floating in front of him. On the scroll, all the originally dense words disappeared, leaving only seven big characters: Wei Wuji, an outer disciple.
Obviously, the person Wu Tong spoke was the credit book in front of him.
Wu Tong then spoke again, "Wei Wuji is unprecedented. On the night of the entry, he was promoted to a foundation-building disciple, setting an eternal record. He should reward him with a hundred high-level spirit stones, one low-level treasure every year, and a hundred spiritual pills that can promote cultivation at this level. He will give priority to purchasing spiritual materials or elixirs in the door at one time.
Now he is willing to convert all rewards other than the opportunity to purchase spiritual materials or elixirs into credit... "
Every time Wu Tong said a word, one more word appeared on the scroll. After Wu Tong finished all his situation, the light shone on the scroll. Under the name, the four words "The most advanced outer disciple" were replaced by the inner disciple. In the end, there was another line of words: "Made, 3.5 million; mistakes, no.
At this time, as soon as the black comrade whispered her sleeves, all the words disappeared, leaving only Wei Wuji's name, his merits and demerits.
Wei Wuji estimated in his mind that this credit should be based on low-level spirit stones, because the spirit stones, magic weapons, and elixirs he converted this year were about 3.5 million low-level spirit stones. If it was physical, depending on the grade, there might be some differences, but on average, it would be almost like this.
Wei Wuji didn't know what level he was considered, because there was no such number at all on the name on the left after the name on the left that he saw first. They all wrote about how many great merits, how many great merits, etc. At this moment, he asked Wu Tong, "Master Wu, don't know what level my merit can be ranked among the disciples in the sect?"
Wu Tong looked at him and smiled and said, "Why, do you see that there are quite a lot of numbers? However, with your contribution, although you cannot be at the bottom of the Five Elements Sect, it is also at the bottom of the bottom.
In our Five Elements School, ten thousand achievements are considered a small achievement; one million achievements are considered a middle-level achievement; one million achievements are considered a big achievement; one hundred billion achievements are considered a big achievement. In order to calculate this, it is three middle-level achievements, fifty small achievement."
After hearing this, Wei Wuji compared the credits behind the names he had just seen, and found that his credits were not even a fraction of the credits. At the moment, he couldn't help but say in surprise, "Master Wu, are we disciples of the Five Elements Sect so rich?"
"Where can?" Wu Tong replied with a smile, "In fact, the fastest way to earn this credit is to complete various tasks for the sect. The worst ones also have a small skill, while the best ones have hundreds of great skills depends on whether you are qualified and capable of completing them.
The sect encourages the disciples to earn credit with their tasks, so it is a bit difficult to use spirit stones and resources to worship. Of course, this method is much safer than completing the task."
After a pause, Wu Tong continued, "If you don't create an eternal record this time, then no matter how great the reward is, I will not recommend that you make a successful job, because it is too difficult for you, a disciple without deep background to obtain enough credit by relying on the offering of resources.
However, it is different if it is an eternal record. It’s okay for the others. As long as your cultivation level continues to improve, the level and grade of the elixir will continue to increase, and the value will soar. As long as you keep breaking through, it will definitely be a huge number every year.
Now, do you have any other questions? If not, then we can go out!"
Wei Wuji shook his head and said, "No more!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Tong used the magic trick again, closed the merit and demerit books of the disciples of the Five Elements Sect again, and sent them into the guardian ban of the galaxy in the sky. Then, he took Wei Wuji out and returned to the room where he was in charge.
Wu Tong sat upright and said, "Now, as a formal inner disciple of the Five Elements Sect, you still have three things to do. The first thing is to go to the Sutra Hall to choose the sword technique you want to practice; the second thing is to find a master among the Jindan real person who practices the sword technique you selected. In the future, the mountain where your master sits in will be your residence throughout the foundation-building period; the third thing is to go to the deacon branch hall in the mountains where you selected, and receive the standard equipment for you as an inner disciple.
Do you understand?"
"I understand!" Wei Wuji nodded and said.
"Okay, now you can leave!" Wei Wuji bowed to Wu Tong and was about to withdraw.
At this time, Wu Tong spoke again, "Wait!"
"What else does Master Wu have to do?" Wei Wuji asked.
Wu Tong threw it casually, and a three-inch-high white jade bottle flew over. Wei Wuji caught it and found that the jade bottle was blank and there was nothing. He didn't know what was inside.
Wu Tong did not wait for Wei Wuji to ask questions, and said directly, "This is a drop of golden chalcedony liquid, which can cleanse spiritual power and is of great help to the practice of swordsmanship. Even if I lose the compensation you deserve, you will never be stingy with the disciples of our Five Elements Sect."
"Thank you, Master Wu!" Wei Wuji did not feel pretentious, and directly put it into his storage bag, then thanked him and left.
After Wei Wuji left, Wu Tong's smile was gone, and she sighed, "Oh, there is only so much I can do. Next, whether Wei Wuji is willing to continue practicing the Golden Sword Art and worship me is up to my disciple, it depends on the will of God!"
......
After Wei Wuji went downstairs, he asked Xu Zhang, the deacon, about the location of the Sutra Hall, and then left the Deacon Hall without any delay and rushed to the Sutra Hall.
After running all the way, Wei Wuji came to the front of the Sutra Hall without much effort.
The Sutra Hall, the Spirit Treasure Hall, and the Tianxing Hall both belong to the inner hall, which is very different from the outer hall, which is the Deacon Hall, which controls all common affairs. In the inner hall, there is no disciple of the outer sect, and all are elites among the inner sects.
Wei Wuji thought that he had officially become an inner disciple and when he ran into the halls, he should have become the title of senior brother. However, as soon as he saw the appearance of the deacon disciple in and outside the Sutra Hall, he knew that his wish would not be realized for the time being. However, this was just a trivial matter, but Wei Wuji was not very disappointed. At that time, he walked towards the hall before a deacon disciple who was not in front of him.
Wei Wuji took the lead and said, "This senior brother, Wei Wuji, is a new inner disciple. Now I come here to choose the sword technique!"
When the deacon disciple heard Wei Wuji's name, his face moved slightly, and his originally casual expression became solemn. He smiled and said, "It turns out that he is Junior Brother Wei, who is my brother Xing Dan, and a disciple of the Fifth Peak of the Sun in the Huoyuan Mountains. Does Junior Brother Wei have a sword technique to practice in his heart?
If not, my junior brother might as well choose the Sun Golden Flame Sword Technique that I practiced for my brother. The Sun Golden Flame is extremely domineering and can be said to be a top-grade sword Technique."
"Haha, thank you for your kindness from Senior Brother Xing. I want to first look at the general catalog of the sword technique to see which one is more suitable for me, and then choose it." Wei Wuji said with a smile.
"It's good that, with the qualifications of my junior brother, I should choose a good choice!" Xing Dan seemed to have no concern about Wei Wuji's rejection. At that time, he looked into the Qiankun bag at his waist, took out a light yellow jade slip and handed it to Wei Wuji.
After Wei Wuji took it, he was not polite. His spiritual thoughts immediately entered. In an instant, the handwriting shone brightly in his mind.
"Fire Division: Sun Golden Flame Sword Skill, Sun God Light Sword Skill, Da Sun Glass Skill, Nanming Lihuo Skill, Sanyang True Fire Skill, Innate Yi Qi Bing Fire Skill... Water Division: Xuanyin True Water Skill, Tianyi True Water Skill, Xuanming True Water Skill... Gold Division: Innate Yi Qi Geng Jin Skill..."
There are almost six hundred sword techniques. After the general catalog of sword techniques, there are basic introductions of various sword techniques to facilitate practitioners to choose according to their preferences and qualifications. This introduction means more words. Wei Wuji spent about a quarter of an hour before browsing them all.
Seeing that Wei Wuji took back his mind, he stood there thinking and did not return the jade slip to him immediately, but Xing Dan did not care at all and just waited.
In fact, there is something wrong with the general catalog of Sword Art that Xing Dan watched for Wei Wuji. Of course, this is not to say that there are any omissions or errors in this general catalog, but in this general catalog, he consciously arranged the new arrangement of the Sword Art. Not only did he hang the fire part in the front, but the arrangement of the sword art under the fire part is also the most regular, strictly arranged according to the grade and power, and the power and effect of each sword art is also the most detailed explanation. The rest of the sword art art is not treated like this. Not only, the grade of each sword art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art art is not the most basic.
Xing Dan’s general catalog of sword techniques is specially made, specially used to watch new inner disciples with excellent qualifications or unique potential to increase their chances of joining their lineage. As for ordinary disciples, what he is giving him is a normal general catalog of sword techniques.
To be continued...
