Mingshi Yin scratched his head. When he recalled the stern expression on the old woman's face, he felt a little guilty. 'How could a person like her break up so easily? She has quite the temper.' Things were probably not as simple as Leng Luo had made them out to be.
"Only males and not females?" Mingshi Yin asked, puzzled.
Leng Luo walked up to the others and cupped his fists at Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou nodded in response.
Leng Luo looked at Mingshi Yin and explained, "Since ancient times, the dynasties have ruled the world through civil and military means. They've monopolized the government's education. The commoners can only cultivate Body Tempering at most. If they're lucky, they can enter the Sense Condensing realm from the Mystic Enlightening realm. If they wanted to go further up, they could only join a sect and climb up step by step with their talent and hard work. The rise and fall of a country could not be determined by military force alone. That was why there were official schools. It was just that the official schools had always only accepted female disciples, and a few daughters of rich families wanted to study, but they could only find a private teacher. In this way, Yang flourishes and Yin declines. "
"Over time, Confucianism and Daoism flourished. That was how it was."
This information was similar to what Lu Zhou knew in his memories.
He did not expect this world to be similar to the ancient times on Earth. However, compared to Earth, Great Yan did not fall into a situation where men were superior to women.
In terms of cultivation, many sects also advocated female disciples.
"How ironic," Mingshi Yin said.
"500 years ago, Zuo Yushu was the master of the Expansive Heavenly Energy … After she broke off with the Confucian Sect, she went into seclusion. No one knows what happened to her." Based on Leng Luo's words, it seemed like he admired this powerhouse.
"We'll know when she's here," Mingshi Yin said.
Leng Luo exclaimed in shock, "She's coming to the Evil Sky Pavilion?"
"That's right. She wants to stand up for the Zhencang Branch Master, Feng Qinghe," Mingshi Yin said.
If this had happened in the past, Leng Luo would have worried for the Pavilion Master if Zuo Yushu stood up for Feng Qinghe. However, now that the pavilion master was a Nine-leaf elite, what was she supposed to do?
"You overestimate yourself," Leng Luo said.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Let's put this matter aside for now. What's the matter, Elder Leng?"
Leng Luo bowed.
"I'd like to ask for guidance on the Nine-leaf stage, Pavilion Master."
"…"
In the end, it still came.
Lu Zhou had thought about this before. Hence, he asked, "You want to attain the Nine-leaf stage?"
Leng Luo said,
"The door is already in front of me. If I don't open it and take a look, it will be a great regret in my life."
There was no reason an Eight-leaf cultivator would not want to try.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. He said, "Currently, there are two methods to attain the Nine-leaf stage in the cultivation world. The first method is to sever your Golden Lotus and sprout another leaf. This method is feasible. "
Leng Luo looked at Lu Zhou.
Mingshi Yin was slightly surprised as well. When he had been gathering information, he learned that many cultivators who severed their Golden Lotuses had survived. However, he had not heard of anyone who managed to sprout a leaf. Once he sprouted a leaf, his cultivation method would undergo a drastic change. How could Master be sure that this method would work?
"Second, choose not to condense a Golden Lotus when you enter the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm.
"These two methods can be used to reach the Nine-leaf stage. Those who have yet to enter the Nascent Divinity realm can choose the second path. Those who have already entered the Nascent Divinity realm can choose the first path. "
Speaking of this.
Leng Luo asked doubtfully, "Pavilion Master, did you choose the first method?"
At the same time, he was astonished. Since when did the Pavilion Master manage to sever his Golden Lotus? Why was he able to sprout new leaves so quickly?
"Neither," Lu Zhou said.
Leng Luo and Mingshi Yin were puzzled.
Lu Zhou continued to say, "Since you already possess Golden Lotuses, you can only use the first method."
Leng Luo was shocked.
That was the method to sever his Golden Lotus. The problem was, how could he ensure his survival?
Leng Luo bowed and said sincerely, "Please guide me, Pavilion Master."
In any cultivation sect, it was taboo to ask for advancements in cultivation methods or secret techniques like Leng Luo had done. Moreover, this was the Nine-leaf stage that everyone yearned for. Leng Luo understood this as well. Thus, he tried his best to ask for guidance carefully. He added, "I definitely don't covet it. If it's inconvenient for you, I won't mention it again."
Lu Zhou said calmly,
"So what? Severing the Golden Lotus is just the beginning … I believe it won't be long before there's a more perfect method. "
The two of them perked up.
Mingshi Yin said, "In that case, I should just sever my golden lotus. If I wait until I'm at the Eight-leaf stage, I'll be at a great disadvantage."
It was no different from him, a Four-leaf cultivator, growing a new leaf after severing his Eight-leaf cultivation. In that case, what was the point of rising?
Lu Zhou shook his head.
"That may not be the case. Any Eight-leaf cultivator has a better grasp of cultivation base, techniques, experience, and insights than others. Their speed of sprouting leaves will only be faster. "
Moreover, this was only the accumulation of experience. Perhaps, after they sprouted leaves again, those former elites would receive other bonuses.
"I, Leng Luo, have learned something."
"Disciple thanks Master for your teachings."
Instructed Mingshi Yin. Reward: 500 merit points. "
Lu Zhou was not surprised to hear this notification.
Teaching the Old Age Pavilion was also to lay the foundation for the future.
After all, he had only just entered the One-leaf Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm. Now that the Lotus Severing era had begun, there would surely be a commotion in the cultivation world. Many Other Tribes were also eyeing them with hostility. The Evil Sky Pavilion had to be strong enough.
In truth, Lu Zhou had a third method, and that was to attain the Nine-leaf stage through the normal method. However, this method would consume too much of one's life. Moreover, it was still unknown. Since it was not suitable for the others in the Evil Sky Pavilion, there was no need for him to explain it to them.
"If there's nothing else, you're dismissed."
"I'll take my leave."
"Your disciple will take his leave."
After the two left.
Lu Zhou returned to his room and continued to meditate on the Heavenly Writing scrolls.
Without the Peak Trial Card, he could only rely on the Heavenly Writing scrolls.
Before he meditated, Lu Zhou looked at his remaining merit points on the dashboard. They were 2,300.
What could he do with them?
"Lucky draw."
"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. Spent 20 luck points. Obtained Disguise Card x5."
"Disguise Card: Use this card to disguise your avatar as a Nine-leaf cultivator for 10 seconds."
Lu Zhou was pleasantly surprised by the new card.
However, the Disguise Card was truly useless. 'Does it want me to scare people?'
"It's better than nothing."
"Lucky draw."
"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. Obtained Reversal Card x10."
'I'm in luck today. Did I change my luck after breaking through to the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm?'
"Lucky draw."
"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. Thank you for your participation."
"…"
Lu Zhou continued the lucky draw. He used up all his remaining merit points, but he did not win anything. His luck points were now at 44 points.
He did not have many merit points to begin with. Now that he was done, he did not have to worry about them anymore.
After the lucky draw, Lu Zhou looked at the item card column. All the cards had increased by 500 merit points. This was within his expectations.
However, there was indeed a new card for sale. Disguise Card, 10,000 merit points.
"…"
It was an accumulation of little value.
The system must have gone crazy thinking about money. Even a Deadly Strike Card only cost 4,000 merit points. Why would someone with 10,000 merit points buy a Disguise Card to fool others? Unless there was something wrong with his head!
He looked at the avatar column again.
Thousand Realms Whirling: 500000. (Note: This avatar can be obtained through cultivation.)
Golden Lotus Leaf: 50000. (Note: This avatar can only be used by those below the Eight-leaf stage. You can also sprout leaves through cultivation.)
