Chapter Ten: Tian Xuan Sect
The purple mass inside has obviously gained a circle, and the time it takes to move on its own inside is also slowly increasing. However, it seems that it will take some time for it to be full.
The rumors about her being a waste of resources are getting louder, but Luo Yu doesn't feel much pressure because she has a vague feeling that this situation won't last forever. Watching her family busily working for her, she doesn't know how to comfort them, and if she tells the truth, it might make them worry even more.
Just then, news arrived that Tianxuan Sect would open its mountain gate in half a month to recruit disciples.
In the Xiu Zhen world, humans, demons and monsters coexist. On the surface, the three clans can still maintain peace with each other, but behind their backs, they cannot avoid open strife and secret struggles.
The "yao" referred to here are those who have cultivated human form and do not include untransformed yao beasts.
The cultivation of the demon beast is divided into 13 levels. Levels 1-3 correspond to the Qi Refining stage for human cultivators, levels 4-6 correspond to the Foundation Building stage, levels 7-9 are the Golden Core stage, levels 10-12 are the Nascent Soul stage, and level 13 is the Merging with the Dao stage. Demon beasts that have reached the Golden Core stage have already completed their transformation and often cultivate in human form, addressing each other as fellow daoists, at which point they are also referred to as demon cultivators. Similarly, they also use human methods to distinguish between cultivation stages, such as late-stage Golden Core demon cultivators.
Here, the demonic cultivators refer to those who cultivate the demonic tribe's techniques. It is said that these techniques have been passed down since ancient times. Compared to orthodox techniques, demonic techniques are more violent and progress faster in the early stages; in the later stages, the cultivation speed of demonic techniques will also slow down, while facing a more severe demon heart than cultivators who cultivate orthodox techniques.
There are ten major sects under the human cultivators. As for the demon cultivators, they have always been independent and not enthusiastic about establishing their own sects.
Among the top ten sects, the Orthodox has Kunlun Sect, Beast Tamer Sect, Dan Ding Gate, Jian Ling Men, Bai Hua Sect and Lei Yin Temple of Buddhist cultivation; the Demonic Path has Xuan Ming Sect, Yin Gui Sect and Wan Mo Gate; the neutral faction is ** Sect.
In addition to this, there are second-rate sects, third-rate sects, and numerous small sects. Among them, the Tianxuan Sect is one of the top-notch second-rate sects. The Tianxuan Sect has nearly 100,000 disciples, with the majority being in the Qi Refining stage, several thousand in the Foundation Building stage, over a hundred in the Golden Dan stage, and eight in the Nascent Soul stage, with no one in the Merging with Dao stage, at least on the surface.
The Tianxuan Sect is located in the eastern part of the mainland, situated on the Yun Tian mountain range, with an area of 50-60 million miles under its jurisdiction. In addition to the cities established by the Xiu Zhen families, there are also dozens of mortal nations.
Every ten years, the Tianxuan Sect would open its mountain gate and recruit children or teenagers aged 5 to 15. The sect would send disciples to the mortal realm to recruit new members, while cultivators from nearby towns would also flock to the mountain gate, waiting for the Tianxuan Sect to open its doors and accept new students.
The Xiūzhēn families and sects are interdependent, with the Xiūzhēn families providing excellent disciples to the sects, while the sects maintain the Xiūzhēn families. Moreover, the middle to high levels of the sects are often controlled by the Xiūzhēn families. The Huáng family has a True Person who is the master of Shuǐyuè Peak, so many of the Huáng descendants are concentrated in Shuǐyuè Peak.
Not all young masters of the Huang family will go to the sect. If they are not talented, joining the sect is not as comfortable as staying in the family. Even if they join the sect, some of those who have achieved success in their cultivation will return home to compete for the position of patriarch, and if they fail, they can still become an elder. When cultivators feel that their cultivation has made little progress, they often come back to help the family as well.
About whether to join the Tianxuan Sect, Luo Yu had a disagreement with her parents.
"Isn't it better for Yu'er to stay at home? We can accompany you and take care of you." Lin Mo said with concern.
"Sister, if you're a male eagle, you should spread your wings and fly high. A daughter will eventually have to leave home and cultivate her skills. She can't stay in Qingzhou City forever. Besides, I'm going to the Tianxuan Sect with Brother. With Brother around, no one can bully me." Luo Yu said, nudging Lin Mei's arm while giving a sly glance at her brother.
"Father, Mother, I promise to take good care of my sister!" Zi Xi stood up straight, clenched his fists tightly, and made a solemn vow to his parents.
Lin Mo and his wife exchanged a glance, then looked at Luo Yu with pleading eyes and Zi Xi with determination, finally nodding slowly.
Now there are rumors and gossip at home, isn't it even harder to bear if you go to the sect? However, the spiritual energy of the sect is thicker, perhaps after Yu'er arrives at the sect, she can enter the refining period faster. Fortunately, there is still Zi Xuan by her side, and she can take care of herself.
Luoyu thought that if she stayed at home, she would stop at the early stage of building her foundation. She was not reconciled to this. Going to the sect meant facing a complex situation and the plot aunt would also take action like wildfire, but it also means more opportunities and more resources.
Participating in the sect's disciple selection is decided by each family on their own. When Luo Yu's name was reported, the three elders kindly asked a question and, upon learning that Luo Yu's mind was already made up, they said nothing more.
The three elders shook their heads in their hearts, truly a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers! After going to the sect and suffering, she will understand the kindness of the family to the children of the clan, and she will come back by herself.
In another 10 days, the Huang family sent three elders of the Golden Elixir stage to escort their young disciples to the mountain gate of the Tianxuan Sect. Actually, usually it was just the foundation-building stage seniors who escorted them, but this time there were Luo Xue and Luo Yi, two heavenly beauties, so the elder was afraid that something unexpected might happen, and thus raised the level of the escort team.
A silver-white airship, shaped like a crescent moon, darted across the blue sky and white clouds, passing over towering mountains, vast plains, dense forests, and sped rapidly towards the mountain gate of the Tianxuan Sect.
The flying boat is 500 square meters in size, including 10 rooms and a 50-square-meter open-air bow. At this time, about 10 children are standing at the bow, either frolicking or quietly gazing out at the scenery outside the boat.
Luo Yu stood at the edge of the boat, admiring the majestic scenery of the Xiu Zhen realm. As time passed, the excitement of her first trip gradually subsided, and Luo Yu couldn't help but think of her parents' reluctant expressions when she left. She felt a little homesick.
Luoyu shook her head, trying to shake off the thoughts in her mind. She turned around and looked at the crowd on the boat, unintentionally catching sight of a white figure in the distance.
