Chapter 51 The Idle Man at the Mountain Gate
The quietness in the mountains will always make people accidentally forget the passage of time.
But in some subtleties, people can still feel the change of time.
Among the disciples of Xiaozhufeng, those outstanding people all rushed to pass the Six Questions of the Immortal Stele, and then got the opportunity to preach on Feiyun Mountain. Although except for the first three groups who got about half a year to preach, most of the others were sent down after two or three months, but no matter what, they were all Tianjiao who went to Feiyun Mountain and got the inheritance of Qingyang Four Laws.
As for those who have been unable to pass the Six Questions of the Immortal Stele within three years, they either found a way to enter Qingyang Fourth Courtyard, or were preparing to leave the mountain gate. They pretended to be looking for their own opportunities, but in fact they cut off their way to immortality.
And Qingyang Xiaoqizi who was the first to go to Feiyun Mountain, Chen Xu and others who went to Feiyun Mountain the second time, and the third group of immortal disciples headed by Wu Qing, have already advanced by leaps and bounds in terms of cultivation, and they have all mastered the powerful Xianjia Xuangong!
At this time, they have all faded away from the youthfulness when they first entered the fairy sect, and became the young fairy family who are just showing their glory.
Among these people, some were proud and arrogant, and even started to accept the task of killing demons and demons.
There is only one person who is an outlier, and that is Fang Yuan.
In the past two years, he has become a well-known idleman in Qingyang Sect!
While the other disciples had to pass on the Four Laws of Qingyang and worked hard every day to comprehend the mystery of mystic arts and improve their strength, he was slowly reading, practicing swords, and cultivating;
When other disciples received the talisman and began to go out to slay demons and demons to earn merit, he was still slowly reading, practicing swords, and practicing;
While the other disciples were fighting each other and starting to sprint towards the position of True Inheritance, he was still slowly studying, practicing swordsmanship, and cultivating.
All of this, as if the undercurrent of competition in the fairy gate had nothing to do with him...
Of course, from Fang Yuan's point of view, he is actually quite busy.
In the past two years, he has not only studied and practiced sword practice, but also learned many other things.
In addition to Xiaozhu Peak, which is dedicated to cultivating disciples of the immortal sect, Qingyangzong also has a strange peak like Qinglu Peak, which is dedicated to cultivating alchemy disciples;
In these places, the principles of practice that ordinary practitioners do not need to master are taught, and the disciples who specialize in alchemy, array, talisman, and device are trained. Except for some immortal disciples who are gifted and specialize in this way, other disciples of the immortal sect often concentrate on improving their cultivation and honing their profound arts.
They think that apart from the way of practice, other things, whether it is alchemy, array, talisman, or tool, are all miscellaneous learnings. They just need to understand a little bit. Unless they want to make achievements, they should not spend too much energy!
But Fang Yuan didn't care about these things, he was very interested in everything, and when he had nothing to do, he often went to these places to listen to sermons, learn crafts and so on when he was free from reading, practicing swordsmanship, and cultivating!
In the beginning, those Xianmen disciples were not used to having such a person wandering around, but because he had the qualifications specially approved by the elders, they had no choice but to let him go. After a long time, they got used to it.
And this also made Fang Yuan's reputation as an idler spread more and more widely.
Apart from the reputation of being an idler, the most noticeable thing about Fang Yuan is that his strength is too weak...
In more than two years, the other immortal disciples have gradually reached the fifth level of Qi training, and the sixth level of Qi training. Some are powerful, and it is said that they are already hitting the threshold of the seventh level of Qi training.
I don't know how many people have secretly guessed: It is probably because of that inheritance that ruined his future!
That inheritance was originally a legendary overbearing technique that destroyed countless fairy seedlings. Fang Yuan became one of the victims, but it was not unexpected. After all, even those elders just wanted Fang Yuan to try it out...
It is the blessing of Qingyang Sect that Fang Yuan can succeed in cultivation, and if he fails in cultivation, it is completely within the loss suffered by Xianmen!
After Fang Yuan had passed on the Xuanhuang Yi Qi Jue, at the beginning they had to see him once every three to five days to ask if there was anything he needed, and to check his progress, but gradually, this time became once every half a month, once every one or two months, and then their hearts gradually became colder. Now, it has been three or four months since the last time they asked Fang Yuan, and they have never thought of calling him up.
This good fairy seedling is still ruined like this...
In private, several elders also mentioned Fang Yuan, but they all felt a little regretful.
The last time this old man saw him, he checked his cultivation. Until now, he has not cultivated the first ray of mysterious energy. Generally speaking, whether he is talented or not in this profound art, there will be signs in half a year, but he hasn't changed a bit in two full years. What's more, he hasn't even improved his cultivation. That's true...
It's not unexpected. For thousands of years, the Qingyang Sect has been destroyed by this genius, and he is not the only one!
An elder took the conversation and said flatly: Even strictly speaking, he is not the best one!
The disciples who have stagnated in cultivation have already been sent down the mountain. The rest are my inner sect disciples of the Qingyang Sect, and they are quite easy to arrange. It is this little Fang Yuan, but now it is a headache. He is now one of the highest in resource supply, but his strength is almost the lowest in this inner sect. I really don't know how the immortal sect plans to treat him in the future. Could it be...
Don't even think about it!
Someone heard the implication, and said lightly: After all, he is the existence of Xuanhuang Qi Jue handpicked by Elder Gu Mo and Elder Yun. Now that he has failed, he must not be expelled from the mountain, and let him fend for himself in the fairy gate...
The others nodded and agreed with this statement.
In fact, Xianmen has always treated these immortal seedlings who were sacrificed for the great plan of Xianmen.
Junior Brother Fang Yuan, these are your cultivation resources for this month, and they are here to pledge...
Fang Yuan didn't care about the coldness of the Immortal Sect. In other words, he had expected this from the very beginning when he decided to practice the Xuanhuang Yiqi Jue. Everything was under his control, and it didn't affect his character. However, the fly in the ointment was that when receiving resources, he always felt a bit awkward.
Looking at the few spirit stones that were obviously lacking in spirit energy and filled with inferior spirit stones, Fang Yuan couldn't help but tugged at his ears, and then approached the disciple in charge to reason: Brother, a few months ago you gave me inferior spirit stones as high-quality spirit stones, and I didn't say anything, but recently the number of spirit stones has become less and less. I remember that Xianmen now gives each disciple ten spirit stones, right?
Seeing Fang Yuan's questioning, the chubby disciple in charge replied with a smile: Junior Fang, you can't ask me about this. Although the spirit stones of the remaining disciples after the outer disciples went down the mountain have reached ten yuan a month, you have to say something if you are not included in the bread here. The other disciples are all cultivating while accepting missions from the Immortal Sect and accumulating merit. Take a look at the merit book. It's been two or three years since you started, and you still have no merit at all. It's not bad to take these spirit stones...
He greeted him with a smile, and what he said was reasonable, so Fang Yuan lost his temper.
He knew that Xianmen would not be able to get stuck on this few spirit stones. If the other disciples had ten spirit stones every month, he must be the same. Those missing spirit stones, he didn’t know whether they were greedy for ink or he ran away with his long legs.
Shaking his head and sighing, he planned to leave, but the disciple in charge felt a little embarrassed.
Fang Yuan's disposition is mediocre, and what happened to make people feel sympathetic. It's not good to be too mean to him from the same sect. He quickly called Fang Yuan, and said with a smile, Junior Brother Fang, please hold back. I just want to take this opportunity to tell you that we disciples of the Immortal Sect, after inheriting the Four Laws of Qingyang, have to go to the Hall of Talismans to receive tasks. Firstly, we can earn some cultivation resources for ourselves. You don't think so, but...
Even if you don't want to compete for the True Inheritance, every disciple of the Immortal Sect must complete a certain amount of merit within a year. You had special approval from the elders before, so naturally you don't have to accept the task, but now, I think it's better for you to promise...
Fang Yuan stopped and turned around, said with a smile: Senior brother said that since you have achieved something in your studies, you should also make meritorious deeds and serve the Xianmen!
The disciple in charge laughed and said, That's very good, I have a suitable task to recommend to you...
As he spoke, he took out a jade slip and handed it to Fang Yuan. After Fang Yuan read it, his face changed slightly.
Taiyue City is haunted by demons?
Alas, I remind you that the reason why I ate noodles yesterday was because I only had noodles...but I added two poached eggs myself! two! There are two!
