The reason why the mountain gate was able to be built in just one month was partly because the mountain protection formation deployed by Luo Xiu could only cover a limited area.
On the other hand, it was also because he recruited a large number of craftsmen regardless of cost that he was able to complete the work in a short period of time.
After all the craftsmen were paid, Xu Jingnian arranged for them to be sent back by hand.
On this day, in the Hall of Reincarnation, Luo Xiu sat cross-legged on the 981st floor of the stairs, Yan Yue'er stood beside him, and in the hall below, Xu Jingnian took several martial kings from the Xu family.
"The mountain gate is named Taixuan. I think you all have already expected something." Luo Xiu looked down and smiled slightly.
"The Secret Realm of Zifu was originally one of the secret realms of the ancient Taixuan Sect. When I built the mountain gate here, it was not actually the founding of a sect, but the continuation of the Taoist tradition of Taixuan Sect."
"Two years ago, in that small world of the cave, what I received was the inheritance of a powerful man from the ancient Taixuan Sect."
As soon as these words came out, Xu Jingnian's eyes suddenly lit up.
His idea is very simple. Since Luo Xiu has received the inheritance from the ancient powerful man, he should be able to gain some benefits by following him, right?
Regarding how Xu Jingnian will be arranged in Taixuan Sect, Luo Xiu already has a plan in his mind, but he has not spoken out yet.
When the mountain gate was first built, the talents withered, and future development will be a long and gradual process.
In a short period of time, Luo Xiu understood very clearly that it was difficult for the sect to provide help to him. On the contrary, most of the time, he needed to protect the sect himself.
However, his original intention of establishing his power was to protect his relatives on this land. As long as the Taixuan Sect could gain a firm foothold in the Tianwu Kingdom, he would not need to worry about the future.
"Now that the mountain gate has been built, I wonder when the sect leader plans to open the mountain gate?" Xu Jingnian asked.
His title of Luo Xiu also changed from Mr. Luo to Sect Master.
Opening a mountain gate actually announces the existence of Taixuan Sect to the world. Throughout the ages, every establishment of a sect family will invite prominent forces in the surrounding areas, or martial arts masters, from all over to congratulate them. The higher the status of the guests, the higher the status of the guests.
The stronger the strength, the more it can highlight the confidence and unusual features of the new force.
"There is no rush to open the mountain gate for now. I have my own plan for when to open the mountain gate." Luo Xiu said.
Then, Luo Xiu's eyes fell on Xu Jingnian again, and he said slowly: "As long as you, the Xu family, are no more than thirty years old and have the cultivation level of God Refining Realm, you can become our inner disciple of Taixuan Sect.
Those who have cultivated in the Xiantian realm can become outer disciples."
"As for the ones you brought who have reached the realm of King Wu, they will be temporarily arranged as outer sect deacons and enjoy the treatment of inner sect disciples."
The Martial Kings behind Xu Jingnian couldn't help but frown when they heard that they and others were only arranged as a small outer sect deacon, enjoying the treatment of inner sect disciples.
In the past, they were the highest-ranking people in the Xu family, except for the ancestor Wu Jun. Naturally, they were not willing to succumb to others easily.
"Why, are you not satisfied with the sect master's arrangement?" Xu Jingnian turned back to look at these people and scolded them coldly.
"Don't dare." Facing the powerful ancestors, these martial kings of the Xu family naturally did not dare to be disobedient in the slightest.
"Hmph, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. If anyone feels that he has been wronged by staying in Taixuan Sect, he should go back to Tianwu City. If anyone chooses to stay, he must be loyal to the sect.
Otherwise, I will be the first one not to spare him!"
When Luo Xiu heard what Xu Jingnian said, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly. He knew that Xu Jingnian was doing this for himself, and in fact he was also showing his attitude to himself.
However, Luo Xiu didn't take it to heart. Whether a person is loyal to the sect or not, there will be many opportunities to see it in the future, so he is not in a hurry.
In the Xu family, with the exception of Xu Jingnian, the ancestor of King Wu, the seven people behind him all have the cultivation level of King Wu, and the one with the highest level of cultivation is the fourth level of King Wu.
In fact, in Luo Xiu's view, not to mention these seven Martial Kings, including Xu Jingnian, actually have little potential to tap, because these people have been practicing for at least close to a hundred years, especially those who
Xu Jingnian did not have much life left. If he could not break through to the realm of Emperor Wu within a hundred years, he would have to wait for his life to run out and die.
But there was nothing Luo Xiu could do. He couldn't be alone after the sect was established, right? With the group of people brought by Xu Jingnian, he could at least fill the scene.
"Senior Xu will temporarily serve as a protector in our Taixuan Sect. I wonder if it's okay?" Luo Xiu said again.
The protector is already considered a high-ranking figure in the sect, with a status second only to the elders.
Xu Jingnian was startled for a moment, but soon he came to his senses, with a smile on his face, "Everything depends on the arrangement of the sect leader."
In fact, in Xu Jingnian's calculation, he should be able to get the position of elder no matter what, but he did not expect that in the end he would only be a protector.
A strong man at the level of a Martial Lord is enough to hold the position of elder even in a powerful force like Xuanyang Sect.
As far as he knew, Taixuanmen had built eighteen Dharma Protector Palaces. Could it be that this guy Luo Xiu wanted to use eighteen powerful warrior-level warriors as Dharma protectors?
Doesn’t that mean that the elders of Taixuan Sect must at least be at the Martial Emperor level?
What kind of joke is this guy Luo Xiu making?
Xu Jingnian was a little confused and couldn't figure out where Luo Xiu got his confidence.
Luo Xiu had no intention of paying attention to what Xu Jingnian was thinking. The sect's cultivation resources had also begun to be opened to the outside world. Regarding the requirements of the outer and inner disciples, he had already told Xu Jingnian that everything would be done by him.
Luo Xiu is currently only opening the nine training towers in the secret area to Xu Jingnian, and promises to provide him with a sixth-grade elixir every month for training.
However, in the entire sect, Xu Jingnian is not the only one who needs elixirs for cultivation. Luo Xiu cannot refine the elixirs needed by everyone by himself.
Luo Xiu couldn't help but think of Ou Houliang from the Alchemist Guild of Shanyuan City.
Speaking of which, Luo Xiu was able to get acquainted with Xu Jingnian because of Ou Houliang. This person was a fourth-level alchemy master who was obsessed with alchemy. If he could win over him, it would definitely be of great benefit to the initial development of Taixuan Sect.
At the very least, there is no need for Luo Xiu to refine some elixirs below level four.
He told Xu Jingnian this idea. After all, Xu Jingnian was Ou Houliang's benefactor. If he came forward, he would be more certain to win over Ou Houliang.
And Xu Jingnian did not disappoint Luo Xiu. Ou Houliang had already agreed and would set off to Taixuanmen soon.
Luo Xiu left a token. As long as Ou Houliang comes to Taixuan Gate, he can hold this token and enter the alchemy pavilion.
In the alchemy pavilion, Luo Xiu placed jade slips recording his alchemy experience and various rare elixir recipes.
However, Luo Xiu also set permissions on these jade slips. The token he left for Ou Houliang could only check some things about fourth- and fifth-grade elixirs.
Even so, with these, Ou Houliang can improve his alchemy level in the fastest possible time and become a fifth-level alchemy master, as long as his talent is not extremely poor.
Regarding Ou Houliang, Luo Xiu arranged for a deacon of the Alchemy Pavilion, whose status was equivalent to that of an inner disciple.
On this day, Luo Xiu walked out of the cultivation tower in the secret realm and came to the mountain gate outside the secret realm.
According to his requirements, those who are less than thirty years old and have reached the realm of refining gods can become the inner disciples of Taixuan Sect. In the entire Xu family, there is only one person who meets this condition, a young man named Xu Hao.
.
Among the outer disciples, there are relatively more people from the Xu family who meet the requirements, but there are only thirteen. Plus seven Martial Kings, it can be said that there are very few people in such a large mountain sect.
For these people, Luo Xiu actually does not have high expectations. Even if he can provide these people with superior training conditions, the final achievements will be very limited.
Only Xu Hao, who has the best talent, can still make Luo Xiu slightly satisfied.
Luo Xiu planned to leave the mountain gate this time. Before leaving, he refined a talisman and handed it to Yan Yue'er's hand. If during his absence, the mountain guarding formation could not withstand it, he would bring his disciples with him.
people, take refuge in the secret territory.
The entrance to the secret realm was restricted by the Black Xuan Martial Emperor in ancient times. Even if several Martial Emperors joined forces, they would not be able to force their way in.
The goal of Luo Xiu's trip is the Hengyun Mountain Range. The location of the Hengyun Mountain Range has exceeded the border of Tianwu Kingdom.
According to his understanding, there are no very powerful sects near the Hengyun Mountains except Mu Xuan Sect, but in the south of the Hengyun Mountains, there is a behemoth, the Sea of Clouds Holy Land.
The Hengyun Mountain Range is a dangerous place with many monsters and beasts, but there are also various rare and rare treasures that emerge in endlessly, so the disciples of the Sea of Clouds Holy Land often appear near the Hengyun Mountain Range.
Luo Xiu sometimes relied on the teleportation formations of the hunter guilds in major cities, and sometimes flew in the air. It took him several days to reach the edge of the Hengyun Mountain Range.
He saw many martial arts cultivators forming teams and entering the depths of the mountains and forests. There were few martial arts cultivators who dared to break into the mountains and forests alone to hunt for treasures, because apart from the threats from monsters and beasts, the most dangerous ones came from other people.
Martial arts hunt!
Killing people and seizing treasures is undoubtedly the fastest way to make money, especially in the wilderness. After killing people, leaving their bodies in the wilderness is impossible to investigate.
Among the human martial arts, there is a group of people who gradually made their fortune by killing people and grabbing treasures.
Strictly speaking, Luo Xiu can be considered this type of person, but he did not actively and maliciously kill people to seize treasures. Even so, many masters died at his hands, allowing him to gain a lot of resources.
The treasures are far richer than those of most powerful Martial Lords.
Luo Xiu didn't know where to find black loess soil in the Hengyun Mountains. He wanted to buy some through the Hunters Guild, but he couldn't receive it at all.
Therefore, he could only walk around in the mountains and forests, and happened to witness a melee with his own eyes.
There were eight people fighting, three on one side and five on the other.
But the result was not that five people surrounded three people, but those three people beat the five people on the opposite side without the ability to fight back.
To be more precise, there were two people fighting against each other, and the five people on the other side were defeated steadily. There was one person who did not make a move, folded his arms in front of his chest, and watched the battle with a sneer.
Although this person did not take action, the five people on the opposite side felt a huge pressure.
Luo Xiu's eyes fell on this person, and he found that the person who did not take part in the melee was a man in black robes. The real energy fluctuations on his body were clearly at the level of the Martial Lord. The majestic pressure caused the five people on the opposite side to have foreheads.
They all broke into cold sweat.
Of these five people, two are in the early stage of Martial King and three are in the late stage of God Refining.
Although there are only two opponents between them, these two people are both in the middle stage of King Wu.
The strength of the two sides is not proportional at all. One Martial King in the middle stage will defeat the two early Martial Kings without any power to fight back. As for the remaining Martial King in the middle stage, it is like a cat playing with a mouse, leaving the three late stage God Refiners with no way to escape.
Of the two parties, the one with the smaller number of people all wore black robes, and the one with the larger number of people all wore white robes, clearly distinguishing each other.
At this moment, Luo Xiu's eyes suddenly condensed, because among the five people wearing white clothes, he saw a woman, dressed in a white dress, as beautiful as a fairy, with a sword in her hand and a sword on her back.
.
"Yan Xiruo?" Memories suddenly came to mind like a tide.
So many things have happened in recent years that Luo Xiu has forgotten such a person, but he remembers clearly that this woman is his obsession that he cannot forget after endless reincarnations.
