Chapter 36: Purple Void Cave Illumination

The Donghua Sword returned to the sect. For such a grand event, the Profound Heaven Sect naturally held a grand banquet. Many flourishing sect cultivators gathered in one place, and they couldn't help but compete for beauty, each showing magic treasures and disciples fighting and wrestling to help the fun. However, these things have little to do with the new disciples from South Zhuzhou. These little disciples have low cultivation, and some have not even opened their pulses. These cultivators who can be guests of the Profound Heaven Sect are at least Golden Core cultivation. If it weren't for the Donghua Sword, the two sides would not have any intersection in hundreds of years.

Since the Ruan girl is the Donghua Sword Envoy, she was taken away by the sect master early, and Chen Jun also went to Tianzhu Peak to return to his life. The South Zhuzhou disciples had not yet greeted each other, so they were taken away separately. Everyone didn't know what they were based on to pick up people. The Profound Heaven Sect rules were strict, and even the Golden Core True Persons like Zhou Yanqing and Xu Shaowei, who were jumping, were solemn when they returned to the mountain gate, and did not dare to make any mistakes. How dare these little disciples ask more? It's a pity that they came all the way from South Zhuzhou to here, and they also thought that these fellow villagers should be more connected in the future to be arms and help, but they didn't even have the chance to ask each other's names, so they were led away by their respective teachers and flew to various peaks.

"The Three Pillars of the Sky in the Central Continent each lead nine countries, and the Purple Essence Mountain lives high in the clouds, and below the clouds are mortal countries."

The one who came to pick up Ruan Ci was a green-shirted female immortal. Her cultivation was probably not high, but her temperament was very kind. Along the way, she told Ruan Ci about the small things in the mountain gate, "The floating big lake you just passed, the air is connected to the South Sea, called Sansu Marsh, which is also an excellent immortal dojo. On weekdays, it is covered by clouds and smoke. Unless it is a distinguished guest, the nine-dragon waterway is not open. We go in and out of the mountain gate from the clouds. However, the mountain protection grand formation turns endlessly, and the life gate is not easy to find without divination. It is not a simple thing to go out."

Ruan Ci looked back and saw that the nine mountain gates were gradually covered by thick fog. This Purple Essence Mountain was extremely magnificent and magnificent, and it was also built floating in the air. The Altar City was like a child's toy compared to it. She wanted to find the cloud exit mentioned by the female immortal, but she didn't know where to look for a while. Her eyes were blank, so she had to mock herself, "Don't look for any life gate, if it weren't for the sister leading, I would be lost now."

The female immortal giggled, "You child, your mouth is so sweet, you call everyone sister when you see them, do you know how old I am this year?"

Ruan Ci thought, "When I was in the Song Kingdom, those noble ladies always liked to be called younger. Now in the immortal sect, everyone likes to boast about their age. It seems that between immortals and mortals, across the ocean, there are many different things in personnel, and I will pay close attention to it in the future."

She has had an awkward identity since she was a child, and she has long seen the warmth and coldness of human feelings, and she has worked in the Altar City for several years, so she can be considered sophisticated. At this time, she intended to make friends, but after a few words, she coaxed the female immortal to be close to her. This female immortal was named Green Qi, so she liked to wear green clothes. She was born in the nine mortal countries of the Profound Heaven Sect. These nine countries are located below the Purple Essence Mountain. Every year, the weather is smooth and the spiritual energy is everywhere. Mortals born in it are all longevity, ears and eyes clear. Many disciples of the Profound Heaven Sect are selected from the nine countries, and even the flourishing sects nearby are mostly willing to come to the nine countries to enrich the sect.

There are also many children with good fortune, although they have not been taken as disciples, they have also been taken into the sect by the Profound Heaven Sect to be immortal maids and strong men. Green Qi is one of them. She was originally a cup-holding maid of an elder of the Profound Heaven Sect two hundred years ago. She was clever and favored by her master, who gave her immortal pills to help her practice and break through the realm. Now she is a Foundation Establishment cultivation, and she also has a position in the sect. However, compared with disciples like Ruan Ci who were officially taken into the sect, there is still a difference between clouds and mud. However, she is still extremely polite to Ruan Ci, and even more pointing, telling Ruan Ci many things in the Profound Heaven Sect.

There are also many sects in the Profound Heaven Sect that take in disciples, and like the vast majority of sects in the world, ordinary disciples who are taken into the sect must first be outer disciples. Even if they are favored by teachers, they must wait for their own accumulation of cultivation, enter the inner sect, and then officially worship the teacher. Among the inner sect disciples, some will be taken as room disciples, and among the room disciples, the order will be arranged. This step by step is like the promotion of civil and military officials in the mortal world, but there is no such thing as a sudden increase in cultivation of idle disciples in the sect.

These things, Wang Wang Panpan had already roughly told Ruan Ci before. Green Qi said it more carefully. You know, the cultivation of a Taoist is not practiced in vain from the beginning of pulse opening. Every step forward requires a sea of precious materials, and every step of cultivation has various doubts. If you are not careful, you may be possessed by the devil, and all your previous efforts will be wasted, or you may unknowingly reduce the upper limit you can reach in the future.

If you want to achieve Grotto-Heaven, then from the Qi Refining period, you must have superior techniques, famous teachers to teach, and precious materials to nourish. You really can't neglect anything. Outer disciples have no teachers to teach, only a few deacon immortal teachers, how can they take care of them? Therefore, in the Profound Heaven Sect, most of these outer disciples will be read. If they get the favor of the teacher and are recorded, they will naturally take care of them on weekdays. They will only wait for them to go out to travel after Foundation Establishment, make contributions, and then officially record them under the sect, and serve the teacher from then on. Therefore, most of these South Zhuzhou disciples were sent to the side of the cultivators who took them in that day to listen to the teachings. If there is no accident, after the Foundation Establishment is successful, they will worship under these cultivators and have a teacher.

"This is our Profound Heaven Sect. Every disciple is a good material, and it is not good to give up any one, so we can only act like this. Those flourishing sects are not like this. I heard Young Master Xuan and the others talk about it. Among the flourishing sect disciples, those who are truly talented and have hope of achieving Grotto-Heaven are only one or two in a generation. Naturally, they are pampered and taught with peace of mind since childhood. It is not like our Profound Heaven Sect. It is also a big family and a big business, but in fact, the children are raised roughly, and many die halfway."

The Central Continent's folk customs are indeed different. This Green Qi is always smiling and looks very kind, but when talking about life and death, she is also laughing and talking, not taking it seriously at all. Ruan Rong is also slowly getting used to the folk customs of the Central Continent, and laughed, "Is it possible that every disciple taken into our sect has the potential to achieve Grotto-Heaven?"

Green Qi raised her eyebrows and said, "This is natural. If it weren't for this, how could it be worthy of being taken into the sect? The Langhuan Zhou Tian world sect is not obvious, our flourishing sect is a first-class good sect. Which disciple who can be favored by the Profound Heaven Sect has no story of his own? And which one is not a dragon and phoenix among people, one in ten thousand?"

She pointed to Ruan Ci and laughed, "For example, you, this body is tempered, flawless, and has not yet opened the pulse to practice, it is already a 'leakless golden body', and the conversation is also material. Mortal identity, communicating with immortals is calm and calm, the foundation is so thick, I think it must be a descendant of a noble family in South Zhuzhou. I think parents have high expectations for you, so they don't let you open the pulse rashly, and want to send you to the Profound Heaven Sect to practice the most superior techniques. On weekdays, you probably haven't heard less, geniuses like you are rare in the world, but when you arrive in the sect, you ask at will, I can guarantee that there is no senior brother or sister who is not as good as you."

Ruan Ci listened, just smiled, turned the topic and asked, "If it is such a potential, why not take care of it in every way, and let the disciples die halfway?"

"This is impossible." Green Qi was obviously extremely proud of the Profound Heaven Sect. She had just boasted, but when she heard Ruan Ci ask this, she couldn't help but sigh, "The road to immortality is full of dangers. It is far from being able to achieve Grotto-Heaven and truly achieving Grotto-Heaven. Aptitude is only the first step, and the second step is time and luck. With aptitude, you must have time and luck to worship into a high gate. Just say me, the aptitude is not bad, but it is a pity that there has been no apprenticeship in the sect for decades, and the flourishing sect has not come to visit. In the end, I can only find a way to enter the sect as a maid. If it is a talented child, taken by the En Sect or the Ping Sect, that is the delay, and it is not as good as being a mortal. Mortals can still turn for a lifetime and hit the luck again. If you open the pulse to practice, plunder spiritual energy, there is no turning back. If you die in this life, you will disappear, and there will be no afterlife."

She was quite sighing, probably thinking of herself, and then cheered up, laughing, "But you can't say that. Even if you turn for another life, it may not be good. Besides, memory is gone, and I am no longer me. It is better to enjoy longevity and immortal blessings in this life, which is much stronger than small sect cultivators."

Worshipping into a high gate is only the second step. Every time the Profound Heaven Sect takes in disciples, hundreds of people enter the sect, all of them are extraordinary, but inner sect disciples are limited, and room disciples are even more limited. When it comes to Golden Core and Nascent Soul, Golden Core refining Qi and returning to God, Nascent Soul refining God and returning to Law, this Qi and God are only between existence and non-existence. Just refining Qi and God requires a sea of precious materials and occupying the creation spiritual eye. Without the support of teachers and the importance of the sect, there is no hope of climbing to Grotto-Heaven. As for how to refine Law and return to Dao in the Grotto-Heaven realm, and what kind of help the sect needs, that is not what Green Qi can know.

Ruan Ci listened to Green Qi's words, and secretly thought, "No wonder Wang Panpan told me that the order of room disciples is not as simple as looking at cultivation. Just looking at this Green Qi sister, how many times she mentioned the support of teachers and the importance of the sect, how do these come from? I am afraid it is really nothing to do with cultivation and aptitude, just relying on the word power. And that so-called sea of precious materials, except for what the sect gives, I am afraid I have to raise it myself. No wonder the cultivators in the Central Continent fight frequently. There are too many people with aptitude, and no matter how many precious materials there are, they are too few."

"And those nine mortal countries, just below the Purple Essence Mountain, the Profound Heaven Sect selects good materials from them for generations. Over time, it will definitely affect the pattern of the nine countries. The nine countries can in turn transport immortal maids and strong men like Green Qi sister to the sect. Although the aptitude is limited, there is no hope of Grotto-Heaven, and they cannot be taken as disciples, but they can also enjoy spiritual pills and medicine, enter the cultivation path, and can be cited as arms by the Profound Heaven Sect disciples. Wang Panpan said that the Profound Heaven Sect has seventy-two peaks, one hundred and sixty-eight lower courtyards, four or five separate courtyards and Grotto-Heavens, and now it has to count the nine mortal countries. A sect is almost as complex as half of South Zhuzhou."

She only knew why the flourishing sect disciples in the Central Continent always had a bit of contempt for South Zhuzhou. The gap between the two sides is indeed huge. Ruan Ci listened to Green Qi telling her about the outer disciples opening the mansion to live and listening to the Dao and practicing. After Green Qi said it to her heart's content, she laughed, "Green Qi sister, I don't know which peak in the sect the elder who gave you the immortal pill is?"

Green Qi giggled, lowered her voice, and whispered, "It is the master of the young master Chen and young master Qing, the Changyao Baoguang Heaven-Sphere True Person."

It turned out to be an immortal maid under the Grotto-Heaven True Person. Ruan Ci realized this, and hurriedly raised her hand to apologize, "It turns out that there is such a source, no wonder sister takes care of me everywhere."

Green Qi shushed, laughed lightly, "Since I have been in the sect, don't mention the past, but just a small deacon."

She said so, but Ruan Ci would definitely not take it seriously, and Green Qi didn't take this scene talk seriously. She took Ruan Ci's arm and talked about Lin Ji again, "I was taken care of by Lin Ji sister when I first arrived at Baoguang Grotto-Heaven. This time, the little disciple brought back from South Zhuzhou, she was the happiest about you, and she told me several times, so I personally sent you here—you, don't hide your clumsiness, although the disciples in the sect are all good materials, but being able to be summoned by the sect master, you child must have a background. If you have anything in the sect, just come and ask me. Maybe Green Qi sister will have to rely on you to take care of me in the future."

As she said, she wanted to tell Ruan Ci her name. Ruan Ci asked, "Green Qi sister, I see that high cultivators in the Central Continent mostly call each other by a single word. Is this a local habit?"

Green Qi was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Yes, South Zhuzhou doesn't seem to have any big demon sects, so you don't know, the real name of a cultivator is not easily told to others. After the Central Continent cultivators open the pulse, the first mantra they learn is the Pure Mouth Spiritual Mantra, to protect their real name. I forgot, you haven't opened the pulse yet, and your family doesn't seem to be a local noble. You haven't set a spiritual mantra for you. During this period of time, you must not tell your name to others, otherwise there will be unexpected events."

As she was speaking, the two had passed through the clouds and mist, stepped over the jade bridge, and arrived in front of a wide pavilion. Green Qi laughed, "This is the Seven Star Small Building where the sect master pulse usually meets guests. The spiritual energy here is extremely abundant. I borrow Miss Ci's light to enjoy it, which can be worth a few days of hard cultivation. Miss Ci, go in quickly, I will come to see you in a few days."

Ruan Ci doesn't open her eyes on weekdays. At this time, she was reminded by Green Qi, so she used her heart to look at it. Sure enough, the spiritual energy here was steaming, and even condensed into fine dew between the lotus. She couldn't help but secretly admire, picked up the steps and knocked on the door, but it was not the courtyard she originally thought, but a long road, wind and thunder hidden, with a separate world, which was much wider than what she saw from the outside.

The long road was empty, Ruan Ci walked leisurely, but she couldn't walk to the end no matter what. She didn't know whether someone wanted to test her heart, or whether the long road itself contained some wonderful methods. Anyway, she can now go without sleep for several days, and her physical strength is inexhaustible, so she walked leisurely. After walking for several hours, she saw faint light at the end of the jade road. Two little children were waiting in the distance, took her to a large hall, set up a futon in front of the hall, and the two little children sent her three sticks of clear incense, and then retreated to the side.

Ruan Ci had also read classics on the Heavenly Boat and knew the rules of the Profound Heaven Sect. She held the incense with both hands, her heart moved, and the incense head burned without fire. Ruan Ci knelt down with the incense, bowed nine times to the large hall, lowered her head and held the clear incense, just waiting for the hall to call up.

She already knew that the sect master probably wanted to weigh her. At this time, she had no distractions. The hall was silent for a long time, and Ruan Ci was not annoyed, just kneeling and waiting calmly, and she didn't know how long it had passed. The incense ash fell in front of her knees. The hall finally came with a "come in".

Ruan Ci walked into the hall, bowed again, and looked up. I saw the sect master sitting in a black jade lotus, wearing a Daoist robe, holding a green whisk in his hand, resting on his arm, and could only vaguely see his appearance. He was a handsome young man. Thinking of what Wang Wang Panpan said "most cultivators don't age after Foundation Establishment", she knew that he had Foundation Establishment very early, so no matter how many years he had passed, he was still a young man.

The sect master also looked down at her. The eyes of the two touched. The sect master had no joy or anger, and waved the whisk. Ruan Ci only felt that the hairpin on her head was shaking, as if it was about to fly out. She hurriedly held her heart and resisted the pulling force.

The hairpin shook for a while, and finally couldn't resist her heart, and stabilized again. The sect master nodded slightly and asked, "What is your name?"

"Disciple Ruan Ci, meet the sect master."

Since Ruan Ci worshipped into the Profound Heaven Sect, the elders were quite good to her. Although Chen Jun had little contact, spiritual beast meat jerky, spiritual medicine cool cakes, etc., had never been interrupted. Lin Ji, Green Qi, and that nameless old man, either sent her this or led her to see that, always kind and warm. But the sect master was not false, and there was a lot of neglect, as if he was very unhappy with her. Ruan Ci said her name, and there was silence on the throne again. This was repeated again and again, and she couldn't help but be quite surprised in her heart, but she had patience. The sect master didn't speak, so she accompanied him to dry up. Anyway, the sect master's time was always much more precious than hers. Ruan Ci was absolutely not at a loss.

After half a stick of incense, the sect master's whisk moved, and the two children helped Ruan Ci out of the large hall. Ruan Ci walked to the door and suddenly felt a sense of induction. She couldn't help but look back at the throne, but saw that the sect master was also looking at her back. This look happened suddenly, and both sides seemed a little unprepared. The exploration in the sect master's eyes was seen by Ruan Ci. Ruan Ci was not proud in her heart, first reflected on whether this look was forgotten, and then hurriedly followed the children out.

The hall was silent for a while. After a while, the sect master waved his whisk, and Chen Jun's figure appeared on one side, saying to the sect master, "Uncle-Master, I didn't expect the Sword Envoy to refine the green sword to this point in less than ten years. The two Ruan sisters are quite impressive."

The sect master's expression was much warmer than just now, and he opened his lips, "Is this news true? Did she really refine the green sword in a few months?"

"It is true, I dare not deceive." Chen Jun said, "However, the disciple really didn't expect that she hadn't opened the pulse yet, and she could control the green sword and resist the Uncle-Master's sword technique. Looking at it this way, after this woman Foundation Establishment, she already has the qualification to walk the continent."

The sect master nodded, "The person chosen by Sister Xie Tu is indeed not an ordinary generation. The green sword loves her very much, and the connection is so firm. Two points are her extraordinary talent, and eight points are the green sword's love."

He is the head of the Profound Heaven Sect, and his vision is naturally much higher than Chen Jun's. It is just that the Profound Heaven Sect people call Sister Xie Sister Xie Yan Yan Huan Sister Xie Nie, but the sect master still calls her "Tu". Chen Jun lowered his head and dared not answer. The sect master looked at him and said, "How have you seen her in the past few years?"

This question was exactly the same as Chen Jun's question to Lin Ji. Chen Jun's heart jumped. In front of the sect master, he dared not speculate, and hurriedly relayed his views on Ruan Ci without reservation, "... This woman is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and has a fierce energy that others cannot reach. According to the disciple, it is better to be wide than strict, and it is not good to polish too much, otherwise it will be disharmonious."

The sect master nodded, "Not bad, she is naturally clever and has a strong induction, but she is extremely self-contained. I see her toward that Green Qi, neither humble nor arrogant, entering the hall, not panicked, as if all cold and warm are not in her mind, it is broad and broad, light and clear, but after all, her mood is still shallow. Although my aptitude is limited and I have not practiced induction techniques, this woman's look when she left was finally seen through by me, but it is eagle-eyed and wolf-guarded. Toward me, the sect master, there is also a look of disdain and weighing. It turns out that even I am not in her eyes."

High people with such cultivation as the sect master can all look at faces and observe Qi, and even break a person's life encounter. Although it was just a look, it was enough to see many things. Chen Jun did not mock the sect master for seeing the big from the small, nor did he look down on Ruan Ci's city government because of this. You know, the cultivation gap between the two sides is so huge. Ordinary mortals see the sect master, I am afraid they can't even say a word, and they will fall to the ground softly. Ruan Ci can always hide her thoughts, only revealing her true self in this look, which is enough to match the sect master's evaluation of "extremely self-contained". He couldn't help but say, "In the past..."

Senior Sister Sister Xie can't be called anymore. In front of the sect master, it is not good to call Sister Xie Nie. The sect master knew what he meant, smiled slightly, and said, "Many disciples who have just entered the sect are afraid in my hall, and some disciples are already Nascent Soul cultivation, but they still see my small building as a dragon's pool and tiger's den. I still remember what Sister Xie Tu looked like when she first entered the sect, just like Ruan Ci today, just a little more curious and a little less weighing."

He said that Nascent Soul disciples couldn't let go in front of him. This was a prick to Chen Jun. Chen Jun accepted it silently, and intentionally said, "A mortal, also come to weigh the Grotto-Heaven Ancestor? After all, she is young and got the sword, some don't know the height of the sky."

He was testing the sect master's intention, but the sect master understood everything. He shook his head, "Don't say that, the Profound Heaven Sect has no benefits for her yet. Even if the Dao Ancestor is in front, what does it have to do with her? The Donghua Sword Envoy has always been arrogant and has different temperaments. She is not the most arrogant one."

I don't know what she thought of, her smile gradually faded, her face turned cold and silent, closed her eyes and said, "Send her to the Purple Void Cave Illumination Heaven."

Chen Jun was shocked, and for a while, it was difficult to guess the sect master's intention. He stopped for a moment and said, "The disciple leads the order."

#

For Ruan Ci, going to any Grotto-Heaven is no different. Anyway, it is a raw place. She knelt and sat behind Chen Jun, looking around, greedy for the beautiful scenery along the way. Chen Jun was thoughtful all the way. When an isolated peak in front gradually approached, he slowed down his escape light and said to Ruan Ci, "You are going to the Purple Void Cave Illumination Heaven, be careful."

She was taken into the Junping Prefecture by him for three years, and the direct dialogue with Chen Jun did not exceed ten sentences. Chen Jun's avoidance, she was clear. Now Chen Jun actually took the initiative to exhort, she couldn't help but be surprised, "Please show me, True Person."

Chen Jun said, "The Purple Void Cave Illumination Heaven is a Grotto-Heaven opened by True Person Wang. This True Person is noble and is the sect master's junior brother. However... he also had a few frictions with the sect master. In the past, Sister Xie Nie made trouble, bewitched and coerced several disciples under True Person Wang's knees to leave. True Person Wang has been brooding about this. Although she has broken the sky and left, she will never come back to Langhuan Zhou Tian. You and her are just a hurried meeting, but you are the sword seed she chose after all. I am afraid True Person Wang will have some prejudice against you."

The sect master actually sent her to such a True Person's knees, Ruan Ci also felt puzzled, just about to ask for details, Chen Jun was unwilling to say more, just said, "Your cat is raised here with me, and when the time is right, let Lin Ji bring it back to you."

After saying that, he sent her to the entrance of the Grotto-Heaven, talked to the deacon, and resigned.

As for the scenery of the Purple Void Cave Illumination Heaven, Ruan Ci was worried and couldn't take care of it. The deacon was very happy, and soon took her into a quiet room, asked her to wait for a while, and served fragrant tea and snacks. Although polite and distant, it was much more diligent than the Seven Star Small Building. After half an hour, he came to invite her, saying, "The master has finished practicing, please ask Miss to come and meet."

Like this kind of family deacon, most of them call the master gentleman, miss, etc. According to Ruan Ci, the deacon of the Grotto-Heaven True Person can call a master. She was secretly curious in her heart, and she didn't know how the deacon would call if the Grotto-Heaven True Person was a woman. She stepped forward and followed the deacon through a corridor full of coral and jade, walked into a room, first lowered her head and saluted, True Person Wang "um" a sound, Ruan Ci raised her head and looked at her future master.

This look, but the flower face lost color, this surprise is no small matter.

This True Person Wang, actually looked exactly the same as Sister Xie Sister Xie Yan Yan Huan's male body, the appearance of drinking tea, vividly is another Sister Xie Sister Xie Yan Yan Huan!

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Updated, you have waited for a long time, it is not intentional to avoid True Person Wang's first appearance, it is just that there is nothing to write about, said a few words, and skipped it directly

Everyone said which technique Ci Gu should practice!

(I really think there should be a double update today, but let's slow down, the manuscript is not that much)

I will send a red envelope for the previous chapter in a while! Eating frozen dumplings at noon today!
