Yi Gu clasped his hands behind his back and sighed like an old gentleman.
"Since ten thousand years ago, many thieves who make a living by looting have appeared on the Shuijing Sea. These people are pirates."
"But there are many folk rumors that...these pirates are actually warriors from the Tiandi Sect in disguise."
"The purpose is to lock down Tianshui Sect so that Tianshui Sect will never be able to turn around."
Lin Bai asked: "Did the Water Sect not care that day?"
Yi Gu smiled bitterly and said, "Whatever. At the beginning, Tianshui Sect also sent people to exterminate them, but later they found that these pirates came and went without a trace, and they couldn't be exterminated at all."
"And once one wave is wiped out, another wave will come."
Lin Bai had a gloomy face and nodded: "Can't we eradicate the root?"
Yi Gu exclaimed: "Yes, it just can't be eradicated. So many people speculate that these pirates are actually arranged by Tiandimen, and there is evidence in the hands of Tianshui Sect, but now Tianshui Sect cannot challenge Tiandimen.
Even if evidence is presented, the Heaven and Earth Sect will still say that the Tianshui Sect made a false accusation."
Lin Bai asked again: "Brother Yi, why on earth are Tianshui Sect and Tiandimen so at loggerheads?"
Yi Gu smiled bitterly and said: "It is said that it is a feud that started tens of thousands of years ago. But what is the reason, I am afraid only the top leaders of Tianshui Sect can know."
"But it's strange to say that the Tiandi Sect is still in its heyday and the Tianshui Sect has fallen into decline. Logically speaking, if the Tiandi Sect wants to destroy the Tianshui Sect at this moment, it will be an easy thing."
"But the Tiandi Sect didn't do this. They didn't seem to have any intention of destroying the Tianshui Sect."
"At most, it's just a small fight, some friction between the junior disciples on both sides."
"That's weird."
"If it's a feud, then it should go on until death."
"Now that the Tianshui Sect is in decline, it is a good opportunity for the Tiandi Sect to take revenge."
"But they just don't have the Sky-Destroying Water Sect."
Lin Bai nodded secretly, Yi Gu made sense.
Simply put yourself in someone else's shoes and you can come to the conclusion... If Lin Bai himself had a grudge against Yi Gu, and Yi Gu was weak now, how could Lin Bai sit by and watch like this?
If it were Lin Bai, absolutely not.
He would definitely swing his sword and kill Yi Gu directly.
The same is true for the relationship between Tiandimen and Tianshui Sect.
If it's a feud, why hasn't the water sect been exterminated that day?
Yi Gu said: "There are two reasons for the rumors inside and outside Haizhou."
"First, there is an unparalleled ancestor in the Tianshui Sect who is still alive. If the Tianshui Sect is cornered by the Heaven and Earth Sect, the Tianshui Sect will pry open the coffin board of this ancestor and pull him out to fight the Heaven and Earth Sect to the death."
"The second rumor is that the Tianshui Sect controls a treasure that the Heaven and Earth Sect longs for. Until they get this treasure, the Heaven and Earth Sect will not destroy the Tianshui Sect."
Immediately afterwards.
Lin Bai raised the third question.
"Brother Yi, since the Tianshui Sect is in such a state of decline, why are there so many disciples rushing to join the Tianshui Sect?"
"For example, Brother Yi, you have traveled thousands of miles from the territory of the Seven Nights Sect to attend the apprenticeship conference. You must have something to ask for, right?"
Lin Bai asked with a smile: "After all, if Brother Yi can become a member of the Tianshui Sect, I believe it will not be difficult to become a member of the Seven Nights Sect, right?"
The Seven Nights Divine Sect is indeed a level higher than the Tianshui Sect.
Even when the Tianshui Sect was at its peak, it could not compete with the Seven Nights Sect.
Yi Gu traveled thousands of miles from the territory of the Seven Nights Sect to attend the apprenticeship meeting. He must have believed in his own talent and learning, and felt that he would definitely join the Tianshui Sect.
Without this trust, and just with the attitude of giving it a try, it would take a very long time to get from the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect to the territory of the Chu State, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.
Yi Guhan smiled and said: "Brother Lin has a sharp eye. I have come to join the Tianshui Sect. I really have something to ask for."
Lin Bai asked jokingly: "What's the matter? Could it be that you want to regain the glory of the Water Sect?"
Yi Gu smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said: "My father was killed by a thief, his soul was broken, and he fell into a coma... It is said that Tianshui Sect has a secret skill called 'Tianshui Soul Nourishing Technique', which can not only warm and nourish the soul, but also
It makes the soul stronger and can slowly repair the missing soul."
"But this secret skill is the secret of Tianshui Sect. If you don't become a direct disciple, you won't be able to see this secret skill."
"So after I heard the news, I immediately came to attend the apprenticeship meeting."
"Brother Lin, you don't know...it took me three years to travel from the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, to the territory of the Chu Kingdom, and then to Haizhou."
When Yi Gu mentioned his purpose of coming, he shook his head and sighed bitterly.
In three years, it actually took him three years to set out from the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect and arrive at the Tianshui Sect.
"What about you? Brother Lin, what are you doing?"
Yi Gu asked Lin Bai rhetorically.
Lin Bai smiled. The purpose of going to Tianshui Sect to participate in the apprenticeship meeting was to avoid detection in the dark world and avoid the limelight of the imperial capital thieves.
But it was naturally impossible to tell Yi Gu about these things, so Lin Bai said: "I originally traveled within the territory of Qitian Sect, and when I came to Chu State, my cultivation stopped. I happened to hear that Tianshui Sect held a master worship meeting, so I wanted to
I want to come here and try my luck."
Yi Gu smiled and said, "You don't have to push your luck. With Brother Lin's cultivation as an eighth-grade Taoist god, it's easy to join the Tianshui Sect."
"Tianshui Sect's recruitment of disciples is divided into five levels, namely 'the recruitment of disciples in the realm below the Tao realm', 'the recruitment of disciples in the Tao realm', 'the recruitment of disciples by Taoists', 'the recruitment of disciples by Tao immortals', and 'the recruitment of disciples by Tao gods'
.”
"Recruiting disciples from realms below the Tao realm refers to specifically recruiting warriors below the Tao realm."
"The minimum standard for accepting disciples in the Tao realm is to have Tao realm cultivation. Once you pass the Tao realm and accept a disciple, you can directly become a 'seventh-level disciple' of the Tianshui Sect."
"If you pass the Taoist examination, you can become a sixth-level disciple of the Tianshui Sect."
"By analogy, after passing through the realm of Taoism and accepting disciples, you can directly become a fourth-class disciple."
Lin Bai frowned and asked, "What do these levels of disciples mean?"
Yi Gu said: "The Tianshui Sect divides its inner disciples into 'three unique and nine grades'."
"The ninth level is from one to nine. The first-level disciples are the highest, and the ninth-level disciples are the worst."
"Three unique skills refer to...the core disciples, personal disciples, and the Holy Son."
"The Tianshui Sect is in decline right now. The core disciples are no more than a thousand, the direct disciples are no more than a hundred, and as for the Holy Son... there is no one at all."
After hearing Yi Gu's introduction, Lin Bai learned a lot about Tianshui Sect.
"Brother Yi, you really know a lot."
Lin Bai said with a smile.
Yi Gu waved his hand and said, "Actually, all major sects and families in the demon world have similar hierarchical systems."
"This set of rules and regulations have been passed down from ancient times."
"The Seven Nights Divine Sect is like this, and so is the Qitian Sect. Even if there are occasional changes, they won't change much."
Lin Bai nodded suddenly, and the two of them talked all the way, and before they knew it, they came to the ferry and saw a huge building docked at the port.
