In fact, Lu Ping was a little disappointed. In his imagination, Zhenling was a big sect in the North Sea, so its base should be filled with pavilions, terraces, and towers. However, in Lu Ping's eyes, Tianling Mountain looked like a big farm.
Along the way, the spiritual energy on Tianling Mountain was naturally very dense. However, other than the caves built by Zhenling's disciples, the rest of the places were all opened up into various spiritual herb gardens. There were all kinds of spiritual herbs and spiritual materials planted in them. The spiritual herb gardens were protected by all kinds of arrays, but these arrays weren't very strong. It was obvious that they were only to prevent cultivators from the mountain from entering by mistake.
Wu Ziniu looked at Lu Ping's expression and smiled. "How is it? Are you disappointed? To be honest, I was also very surprised when I came here for the first time. I didn't expect the famous Zhenling to have such a simple base. "
"Indeed," Lu Ping said.
Wu Ziniu continued, "The reason is very simple. It's because of the lack of cultivation resources. Therefore, every place where spirit energy converges must be developed into a place to grow all kinds of spirit materials. Because Tianling Mountain has a large spirit vein, there are countless spirit energy converging points on the mountain. Therefore, other than using these spirit energy converging points to build abodes for our sect's disciples, the rest must be used to build gardens for spirit herbs, spirit grains, and so on. "
After listening to Wu Ziniu's explanation, Lu Ping's heart was moved. He had a direct understanding of the cultivation world. Even things that he couldn't understand before seemed to have become clear.
The two talked as they walked, and soon, they reached the waist of the mountain.
Tianling Mountain had a large spiritual vein, so the whole mountain was divided into three levels. The spiritual energy at the foot of the mountain was the weakest, and it was where the Blood Condensation cultivators' caves were located. The waist of the mountain was rich with spiritual energy, and it was where the Core Forging cultivators cultivated. The entire spiritual vein was located at the top of the mountain, and only Dharma Manifestation cultivators or high-level Core Forging cultivators could occupy that place.
Halfway up the mountain, there was a large hall made of green bricks and tiles. It had the aura of an immortal. Wu Ziniu pointed at the hall and said, "Here we are. This is the place where the sect handles the daily affairs. You will have to do everything here to become an inner disciple."
Lu Ping looked at the rather elegant hall and asked, "Is the Sect Master of our sect also here?"
Wu Ziniu slapped his head and said, "I forgot to tell junior that our sect doesn't have a sect master. Everyday matters are handled by the Heaven's Spirit Hall. The truly important matters of the sect are decided by the Laozu."
Wu Ziniu led Lu Ping to a room in the back of the palace. He said to Lu Ping, "For the past year, Martial Uncle Xuan Yuan has been on duty in the palace. Martial Uncle Xuan Yuan is the same as my master, a third-layer Core Forging cultivator."
Wu Ziniu knocked on the door and said, "Martial Uncle Xuan Yuan, disciple Wu Ziniu and Lu Ping are here to see you."
A lazy voice came from inside the room. "Come in, I've heard you chattering outside for half a day."
Wu Ziniu smiled at Lu Ping. The two of them walked into the room. Lu Ping saw a middle-aged cultivator with sleepy eyes sitting behind a table. He was leaning against a chair, holding a large wine gourd in his right hand. He was drinking from it, and his left hand was flipping through a book with great interest.
This originally rather contradictory scene seemed to be very harmonious with Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan's every action, revealing a unique charm.
Wu Ziniu walked up and smiled. "Are you still reading a novel, Martial Uncle?" Then he pointed at Lu Ping and said, "This junior brother is a new Blood Condensation cultivator from the side hall. Master told me to bring him here for Martial Uncle to see so that you can choose a cultivation technique."
Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan chuckled. "You're here to trouble me, aren't you?" He raised his head and looked at Lu Ping. Lu Ping suddenly felt as if he had been seen through by Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan. Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan continued, "Not bad, your foundation is solid, your magic power is strong, and you're young. You're a good seedling. What bloodline do you have? "
Lu Ping answered, "Disciple has the water-attribute Flood Dragon Bloodline."
Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan smacked his lips, then took a sip of wine. "Water Flood Dragon Bloodline?"
Lu Ping waited for Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan to continue, but Wu Ziniu had already walked up to him with a smile. He handed over ten spirit stones and said, "Martial Uncle, please give me some pointers!"
Lu Ping had a strange expression on his face. Why would a Core Forging cultivator care about ten spirit stones?
Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan ignored Lu Ping's expression and said, "Our sect has a total of nineteen cultivation techniques for the Water Flood Dragon Bloodline. Other than the eight that are only perfected up to the Blood Condensation stage, there are seven that are for the Core Forging stage, and four for the Manifestation stage. Which one would you like to choose?"
This time, there was no need for Wu Ziniu to remind him. Lu Ping quickly handed over ten spirit stones and said, "Disciple is slow-witted, please give me some pointers, Martial Uncle."
Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan weighed the spirit stones in his hand and said, "You are a promising young man." He took a sip of wine and said, "Let's not talk about the eight Blood Condensation techniques. Out of the seven techniques for the Core Forging stage, two are pure water-attribute techniques. The other five have different attributes, such as using metal to supplement water, water to supplement wood, wind and water, ice and water, and metal, water, and wood at the same time. They are all different, but they all focus on water."
Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan took a sip of wine to moisten his throat and said, "As for the Manifestation stage, only one of them is a pure water-attribute technique. The other three are similar to what I've said before, but the method of cultivation is different, but the principle is the same."
When Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan finished, Lu Ping asked, "Which is better, the pure water-attribute technique or the other water-attribute techniques?"
Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan chuckled and continued to drink. Lu Ping understood and quickly handed over another ten spirit stones.
Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan praised him again, "You have a good eye." He then said, "It's very difficult to cultivate a technique to perfection. It depends on the person using it. A pure water-attribute technique is valuable because of the word 'pure', but this word 'pure' is also very difficult to achieve. The other techniques, on the other hand, are based on the word 'change'. If you combine it well, you will be able to change into a myriad of forms, which is also a great advantage in a battle. "
Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan changed his tone and said, "However, to be fair, if a pure water-attribute technique can achieve the word 'pure', its power will be superior to the other techniques. However, this word 'pure' is the most difficult to achieve. It requires perseverance, perseverance, and even luck. Furthermore, a pure water-attribute technique focuses on getting rid of the impurities and extracting the essence. It's slower to cultivate compared to other techniques, but it's easier to break through the bottlenecks of each stage of cultivation."
As he finished, Enlightened Master Xuan Yuan looked at Lu Ping and asked, "Young man, have you made up your mind?"
Lu Ping was speechless. He didn't think that there would be so many twists and turns. This was the advantage of being a disciple of a sect compared to a non-sect cultivator. It could save a lot of trouble. A non-sect cultivator would have to figure it out on their own. If they weren't careful, they could make a huge mistake and never be able to turn back.
