The first thousand one hundred and sixty-ninth chapters(1/2)
The flying boat carried three people and soon arrived at the northern part of Black Turtle Lake.
There is a relatively flat area here with more than a dozen tall palace-style buildings standing on the flat ground.
The flying boat landed in front of the tallest palace. Liu Jingtao put the flying boat away and said: "This is the meeting hall, where the high-level officials of the sect discuss matters.
On the left is the General Affairs Hall, which manages the disciples within the sect.
On the right is the executive hall, where the great elder handles all matters within the sect.
If you and your wife want to enter Zhenhaizong, you need to get permission from the great elder first, and then report to the General Affairs Hall.
Only after receiving their respective identity tokens can they officially join the Zhenhai Sect."
Wang Daoyuan cupped his hands and said: "We, the couple, are new here and don't know any rules. Please give me some advice from the deputy hall master."
Liu Jingtao smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, Master will protect you. As long as you don't violate Zhenhaizong's rules, no one can give you small shoes.
Let's go to visit the Great Elder first. The Great Elder is a member of the sect leader, Zhenjun Xiaofeng, and has no dealings with the master.
They might make things difficult, but Master had already spoken, and he didn't dare to offend Master.
Just follow me, you don’t need to say anything, I will help you handle everything."
Liu Jingtao led the way, and the three of them walked into the executive hall.
At this time, there was only one monk with gray hair in the Executive Hall, sitting behind a desk and reading documents.
Seeing the three people coming in, he put down the animal skin book in his hand and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Liu is a very busy man, why did you think of coming to my place today?
These two fellow Taoists are a bit unfamiliar, and they should not be disciples of the sect.
I’m afraid it’s not appropriate for Junior Brother Liu to bring outsiders in, right?”
There was a gun and a stick in his words, but Liu Jingtao didn't care: "These two Taoist friends have received Master's permission to serve in my highness, the weapon refiner.
They are Zhou Lin and Wang Yuan respectively. They are both in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Their level of alchemy and weapon refining has reached the fifth level.
The sect is at a time when it is hiring, and these two people are rare talents.
By saying this, Senior Brother Chen, could it be that he wants to drive away the talents that Master has worked so hard to recruit?"
The great elder spoke with a gun and a stick, blaming Liu Jingtao for bringing outsiders into the core area of Zhenhaizong.
Liu Jingtao also retorted, saying that he intended to drive away the talents that the sect had worked hard to recruit.
Wang Daoyuan secretly sighed in his heart, the power struggle within Zhenhaizong was really fierce.
The Great Elder and the Deputy Master of the Weapon Refining Hall are already the top figures among the Nascent Soul cultivators.
They fight with each other in such a straightforward manner.
The Great Elder is a member of True Lord Sao Feng, and True Lord Sao Feng is only in the early stages of becoming a god, but he has a very high status and is the leader of the Zhenhai Sect.
It's just that among the big forces, it's not necessarily the sect leader who is in charge.
Only the Supreme Elders with higher cultivation levels behind the scenes may be the real ones in power.
Just like the Wang family, the current patriarch is Wang Dezhao.
But the decision-making power of myself, my twelfth uncle, fifth uncle, and third brother is higher than that of the clan leader.
It’s really hard to tell who has the higher status, Liu Jingtao’s master or True Lord Xiao Feng.
Hearing that Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Luan were recruited by Liu Jingtao's master, the elder could not say anything else.
After all, he is just a peak Nascent Soul cultivator.
Although he is a great elder, his status is not low.
But no matter how much power you have, the world of immortality still relies on strength to speak for itself.
If you don't have spiritual cultivation, you won't even fart.
"Since he is a talent that Uncle Zhao values, it is naturally not a problem."
After that, he took out two pieces of animal skin paper and used a jade knife to carve text on them.
After a while, he handed two pieces of animal skin paper to Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Luan.
"I have already recorded the information of the two of you. If you file it with the General Affairs Hall, you will be officially admitted."
Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Luan bowed their hands and saluted: "Thank you, Great Elder."
Wang Daoyuan glanced at the animal skin paper, and the contents on it were all his own fabrications of origin and abilities.
Liu Jingtao smiled and said: "I'm sorry, Elder, I haven't finished what Master ordered me to do, so I'll leave first and say goodbye."
The three of them walked out of the executive hall. The elder's face turned livid and his teeth gritted.
He wanted to curse, but didn't curse out loud.
After the three people walked out of the General Affairs Hall, they sent a message to explain: "The elders of the General Affairs Hall were withdrawn from the Seven Stars Sea, and they only listened to the words of the Supreme Elder, Lord Broken Star God.
He won’t get too close to us, but he won’t deliberately make things difficult for us either.
When you join the sect, the General Affairs Hall will only collect files and issue tokens and some items, without any requirements.
Because you are outside monks who have just joined the sect and do not have soul cards.
I will leave the soul card after I have served the sect for a few years."
Now Wang Daoyuan was relieved. When leaving the soul tablet, he needed to extract a ray of soul and integrate it into the jade tablet.
There is still a clear gap between the souls of the Soul Transformation monks and the Nascent Soul monks.
This process is likely to reveal flaws.
Since there is no need to leave a soul card, the process is safe.
The three of them entered the General Affairs Hall. The Elder was young and looked to be in his thirties.
However, his cultivation level is not low, and he is now at the peak level of Nascent Soul.
The aura is very strong, even stronger than that of the Great Elder.
Although there is still a long way to go before the perfection of essence, energy and spirit, if we provide him with enough pure yin and pure yang energy now, he will soon be able to break through to the state of becoming a god.
Seeing the three people coming in, he quickly stood up and said hello: "Senior Brother Liu is a busy man. If you need anything, you can just ask someone for instructions. Why bother to go there in person?"
Liu Jingtao smiled and said: "Senior Brother Zhaoling, this is my master's new talent.
Master values them very much, and I don’t dare to neglect them, so I personally bring them to join the class.”
Zhenjun Zhaoling's face immediately became kind: "It turns out that he is a talent that Uncle Zhao values, no wonder he is so young and promising.
Give me the file and I will file it for you right away."
Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Luan handed the animal skin papers to Zhenjun Zhaoling, and he took two pieces of animal skin paper and looked at them.
"Sure enough, he is a rare talent. He has such a level of cultivation at such a young age, and his skills in weapon refining and alchemy are also so good."
Then he ordered a monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul to send two pieces of animal skin paper into the back hall.
After a while, the Yuan Ying early stage monk came back from the back hall with two white jade tokens.
Zhenjun Zhaoling took the jade tablet, looked at it, and then handed it to Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Luan.
"After you refine this token, you will be officially admitted.
If you have anything else you don’t understand, you can ask Senior Brother Liu.
Of course, you can also come here and ask me.
Don't be embarrassed, our General Affairs Hall is responsible for managing these affairs."
Liu Jingtao chatted with Zhenjun Zhaoling for a few more words before leaving with Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Luan.
The three of them left this place and returned to the southwest corner of Black Turtle Lake, where they landed in front of a palace.
Liu Jingtao smiled and said: "This is the Weapon Refining Hall, and I am the deputy hall master here.
The master of the hall is the eldest disciple of the master, but the eldest brother is not here now, so I will take care of all the affairs of the weapon refining hall.
When Master was young, he was also the master of the Weapon Refining Hall.
Once you get here, you’re home.”
The three of them entered the Weapon Refining Hall, and every monk in the hall bowed respectfully when they saw Liu Jingtao.
The layout of the Weapon Refining Hall is very simple. Except for two low tables in the middle of the back wall, there are weapon shelves on both sides with some magic weapons placed on them.
The three of them did not stop here and soon arrived at the back of the hall.
The apse is a huge stone room with piles of weapons-refining materials.
These materials have been purified, and you can start refining them once you take them.
It's just that the grade is not high, and the best materials are only fifth-grade top grade, and their value is very average.
Now that Wang Daoyuan's family owns a mine, these materials really don't look good.
However, he and Zhou Luan still pretended to be money-obsessed.
Liu Jingtao saw the expressions of the two people and was very satisfied: "This is a place where the materials for refining are temporarily stored. Because the demand for magic weapons is now high, a large amount of materials are piled here.
