As soon as Huangfu Jinglun entered, Qin Dong and Xue Ziyan looked at each other, but they didn't say much. Instead, they entered the small courtyard together with a tacit understanding.
Talk from the heart.
In fact, the reason why Qin Dong chose to become the dean's registered disciple was not just because of the two privileges, but more importantly, because of his status as a 'named disciple'.
As the head of the first academy, Huangfu Jinglun is not only the manager of the entire Huangji Taoist Palace, but also has an official rank within the center of the Holy Empire that has reached the third level or above.
As long as the Seventh Prince and Ye Qingyao are not crazy, they will never attack themselves in the Huangji Taoist Palace. Even if they target Xue Ziyan, they will be restrained everywhere and dare not act recklessly.
Therefore, it seems that Qin Dong's identity remains unchanged, but in fact, he has an extra layer of invisible protection, so that he no longer has to worry about the safety of the couple all the time.
"Boy Qin Dong, now that they are gone, why don't you hurry up and become a disciple?"
Huangfu Jinglun entered the small courtyard, but instead of sitting down in a hurry, he urged him.
It seems that his calm appearance before was all just an act, but in fact he was eager to accept a disciple and wished he could establish the master-disciple relationship as soon as possible.
Even if he is only a registered disciple, as long as Qin Dong can shine in the Immortal Ascension Competition in the future, then his master will also be extremely prosperous, and he will be recorded as a meritorious figure in the center of the empire.
"Disciple Qin Dong, pay homage to Master!"
Now that the facts have become a foregone conclusion, Qin Dong naturally did not hesitate and immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Huangfu Jinglun.
Xue Ziyan, with quick eyes and quick hands, immediately took out the tea from the storage ring, held it on a plate, and presented it to Qin Dong.
Qin Dong looked calm and took a cup of tea before serving it to Huangfu Jinglun.
"Haha, you kid, your reaction is quite fast."
When Huangfu Jinglun saw this, he immediately burst out laughing. After taking the tea, he raised his head and drank it all.
In this way, a simple apprenticeship ceremony is completed.
However, as the head of the courtyard, Huangfu Jinglun did not want to be stigmatized as a white wolf with empty gloves. With a wave of his hand, two groups of green light fell into the palms of Qin Dong and Xue Ziyan respectively.
It stands to reason that Qin Dong is the only person to become a disciple, so only one copy of the apprenticeship gift is enough.
But Huangfu Jinglun looked at this young couple, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked him, so he simply gave away two copies to completely establish the glorious image of his master. In case Qin Dong became famous in the future, he would not think that his master was stingy.
?
"This is... the Soul Gathering Pill!"
Qin Dong and Xue Ziyan took the green light at the same time, followed closely, and their faces showed a look of surprise.
Unexpectedly, Huangfu Jinglun was so generous and gifted five Yuan-Gathering Pills to one person.
Each of these priceless magic elixirs is worth no less than one million gold coins. Together, they are at least worth a boxing strength testing machine.
But after thinking about it carefully, Qin Dong and his wife soon came to a realization.
Huangfu Jinglun is the dean, and he controls the resources of the entire Huangji Daofu. It is reasonable for him to be so skillful.
For other elders, being able to take out five would have already reached the limit, which is very heartbreaking. After all, it is impossible for everyone to have the huge resources to support it like Huangfu Jinglun.
"Okay, Qin Dong, it's just a few Yuan Shen Gathering Pills. Although they are rare in the outside world, they are not rare items in Huangji Taoist Palace. As long as you have enough merit points in the future, you can exchange them for extra.
Already."
Huangfu Jinglun saw that Qin Dong looked like he had never seen the world before, so he immediately pointed out.
As he spoke, he added: "Of course, even if you want to redeem such precious elixirs, you must apply to the Elders Council before you can redeem them, and they can only be taken within the Huangji Taoist Palace. However, I have already done it for you
Once the permission is enabled, you can redeem it now even if you don’t need to apply for it in the future.”
After listening to the explanation, Qin Dong immediately nodded secretly. As long as such magical pills are exchanged within the Huangji Taoist Palace, there will be a ban on them. Once taken out of the academy, they will become useless medicine.
If not, those disciples in the Huangji Taoist House would probably make a lot of money by reselling the Yuan Shen Gathering Pill and become the richest people in Yanjing.
After a pause, Qin Dong picked up the key points and asked: "Master, what are those merit points? How can I get them?"
"The merit points are the indicator for assessing each disciple, which is equivalent to the task assessment. The more merit points there are, the corresponding rewards will be more and more."
Huangfu Jinglun patiently explained: "To obtain merit points, you must continue to complete tasks, such as hunting monsters in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains and collecting materials, or going to the Underground Demon Abyss to strangle the underground demons and rob their storage
You can get merit points by using magic stones and so on."
"As long as you get enough merit points, you can redeem the Soul-Gathering Pill?" After hearing this, Qin Dong couldn't help but get excited and eager to try.
"good."
Huangfu Jinglun nodded and said: "In addition, as long as you have enough merit points, you can also exchange them for various magical weapons, even for flying monsters, that's okay!"
"Flying monster!"
Qin Dong's eyes flashed again. If there were flying monsters, wouldn't they be able to soar through the nine heavens and become truly invincible?
According to legend, some of the disciples of the Immortal Sect can walk with swords. Although riding flying monsters is a little inferior, as long as they can travel from the air, it will undoubtedly be twice the result with half the effort.
"Flying monsters may be rare in the outside world, but in our Huangji Dao Mansion, we have opened a beast control hall, which houses many low-level flying monsters. Most of their main functions are to travel, but in fact there are not many
After all, the attack power is very powerful, far exceeding that of humans. Most of them have ferocious and violent personalities and will not be easily tamed. Unless they are tamed from an early age, they may have a chance to be completely tamed."
Huangfu Jinglun is concise and to the point, and in just a few words, Qin Dong clarifies the stakes involved.
After all, the truth of this world is about natural selection and survival of the fittest.
It is extremely rare to be able to tame monsters. If you want to have both, the ability to fly and strong attack power, you may have to obtain it through your own chance.
"I understand, Master. Right now, my top priority is not to use these external objects to improve my strength, but it is more important to obtain merit points as soon as possible and enter the Pulse Condensation Realm."
Qin Dong said with a solemn expression. He had obtained the memory of the 'Lingxiao Emperor' and naturally understood that the power of others was only an external object after all. Once it comes to a life or death situation, I am afraid that the key is to rely on oneself.
"Now that you understand, then practice hard. If you have any questions during your practice, feel free to come to me."
After Huangfu Jinglun finished speaking, he threw a jade bead to Qin Dong, then spread out his figure and disappeared.
This bead is called the Sound Transmitting Bead, which is used to transmit messages.
As long as you leave your own mark in the bead, you can directly communicate, which is extremely convenient.
Of course.
This bead may seem convenient, but in fact it is extremely precious. If you were not a close confidant of Huangfu Jinglun, you would never be able to receive such a gift.
It seems that Huangfu Jinglun indeed has high hopes for Qin Dong...otherwise, he would not have been so dedicated and left behind the method of communication.
Ordinary registered disciples, let alone those who received Huangfu Jinglun's guidance, would take three to five years to get the chance even if they meet one person. How can there be someone like Qin Dong who has so many privileges?
but……
After absorbing so much information at once, Qin Dong was not in a hurry, but made up his mind to improve his strength first.
Therefore, Qin Dong immediately looked at Xue Ziyan and suggested: "Without further delay, since we have obtained the Soul Gathering Pill, why don't we retreat immediately."
"That's good. I got five Soul Gathering Pills at once. I guess I can break through to at least the third level of Qi Gathering, and maybe even higher!" Xue Ziyan said with excitement on her face.
"good."
They reached an agreement, so the two of them did not hesitate. They first closed the door of the small courtyard, and then entered the refining room together. They also blocked the doors and windows. After making sure that no one would disturb them, they sat cross-legged.
, ready to take Yuan Shen Dan.
The two are now husband and wife, and after getting along for the past few days, they have already established initial trust between each other. Therefore, this time, Qin Dong does not intend to avoid suspicion, but the two of them practice at the same time.
Furthermore, Qin Dong also wanted to see how far Xue Ziyan could break through after taking five Yuan-Gathering Pills.
"You want to refine the elixir, then start refining it quickly. Why are you staring at me like this?"
Seeing that Qin Dong was staring at her with burning eyes, Xue Ziyan's heart trembled, and her pretty face couldn't help but feel slightly hot, two red clouds floated out, and gradually spread to her pink cheeks.
At this moment, a man and a woman are alone in the same room, completely isolated from the outside world. Could this guy be thinking...
Thinking of this, Xue Ziyan's heart felt as if there were 10,000 deer bumping into each other. That stunning face, which could be said to be the most beautiful thing in the world, kept getting red and hot, as if it were burning like a cloud!
