Walking out of the Dark Feather Hall, Chen Zong felt as if a lifetime had passed.
He had spent three thousand inferior spiritual sources to become a probationary disciple of the Mingguang Mountain through the Vientiane Tower. When the time came for the assessment, he would pass the assessment and become an official disciple.
But an accident caused him to have a fight with the Mingguang Mountain and killed five Mingguang Guards. He had formed a grudge with the Mingguang Mountain. He thought that he would be wanted by the Tai Yuan Sky Sect and would have to leave the Taiyuan Continent as soon as possible. He did not expect such a turn of events.
The third disciple of the Lord of the Dark Feather Mountain, a core disciple of the Dark Feather Mountain.
For most martial artists, this identity was like reaching the sky in a single bound.
"I'm Deacon Li Jingming. Core disciple Chen Zong, please come with me." When Chen Zong was sighing with emotion, a strict voice came into his ears. He saw a man standing straight dozens of meters away.
Although Chen Zong was the third disciple of the Lord of the Dark Feather Mountain, he did not enjoy any privileges higher than a core disciple. Of course, his identity was different from other core disciples, but this difference did not make people afraid of him.
Li Jingming was naturally the person who was arranged to be Chen Zong's guide.
"Thank you, Deacon Li," Chen Zong said politely.
"This is my duty," Li Jingming said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. But his words were not forceful at all, and there was gentleness under the strictness.
With Chen Zong's identity, he certainly would not treat him maliciously. On the contrary, he should befriend him. But because of his temperament, he could not flatter him like some people.
Under the guidance of Deacon Li Jingming, Chen Zong came to the Core Disciple Management Department to receive the standard equipment of a core disciple.
It was a token that symbolized the identity of a core disciple. It was gray and looked like a feather. It was very light, but he did not know what material it was made of. There were three notches. Not only did it not destroy the integrity of the token, but it also added a mysterious feeling.
One notch represented an official disciple, two notch represented an elite disciple, and three notch represented a core disciple.
This kind of identity token was different from the identity tokens that Chen Zong had seen in the past. It was more mysterious and required a drop of blood to recognize the owner.
After dripping his blood, Chen Zong felt a certain connection between himself and the token.
"This isn't just an identity token; it's also a communication token," Li Jingming said. "You can use your mental power to examine the mysteries within."
As promised, Chen Zong mobilized his mental power and communicated with the token in his hand. He immediately saw the information inside the token.
Chen Zong, a core disciple of Cangyu Mountain of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect!
Sect merit: zero!
Message (closed)!
The simple message was clear at a glance.
"You can choose to turn the communication function on or off. Normally, after you get the identity token, it will be turned off by default." Li Jingming's voice sounded in his ears.
With some curiosity, Chen Zong turned on the communication function. Suddenly, a stream of information gushed out like a waterfall.
Chen Zong glanced at it. First, he looked at the prefixes, which started with the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect. Then, he looked at the suffixes, such as Rainbow Fall Mountain, Cangyu Mountain, and so on. Then, he saw the disciple's rank, and finally, the content of the message.
"After the communication function is turned on, you will be able to see the public information of the entire Sect and below," Li Jingming said.
Chen Zong nodded and continued to look at the information curiously. It was divided into several channels, such as the Sect Channel, the Cangyu Mountain Channel, the Bounty Channel, and so on.
The Sect Channel referred to the entire Tai Yuan Heaven Sect. Chen Zong was a core disciple, so he could see the information in the Sect Channel. It was the range of official disciples, elite disciples, and core disciples.
The Cangyu Mountain Channel referred to the disciples of Cangyu Mountain and so on.
As for the Bounty Channel, it was actually the Elders who issued missions and rewards, or the disciples who asked for help, and so on.
In addition, there were various other ways to play. All in all, it was very wonderful, and Chen Zong felt that it was an eye-opener.
Outside the token was a long robe called the Little Yuan Robe. It was a necessary symbol for the official disciples of the Tai Yuan Sky Sect. The robes of the core disciples were dark blue, while the Little Yuan Robe of the Green Feather Mountain core disciples had a grayish-white feather symbol on the cuffs.
"The Little Yuan Robe of core disciples is woven with the silk of a Thousand Year Cold Silkworm mixed with more than a dozen precious materials. It can resist ordinary water and fire, and can resist the attack of a Second Grade Pseudo Spirit Artifact," Deacon Li Jingming introduced.
Chen Zong was even more surprised. The Little Yuan Robe could resist the attack of a Second Grade Pseudo Spirit Artifact. If it was placed in a place like Chaotian Island, it would definitely be fought over by many cultivators below the Transcendent Realm.
But here, it was only the standard equipment for core disciples of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect.
Chen Zong didn't know how many core disciples there were in the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect, but there were more than twenty in the entire Cangyu Mountain.
The core disciples of each mountain of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect were incomparable to the core disciples of the Martial Saint Palace and the Ten Thousand Sky Sect on Chaotian Island. The first prerequisite to become a core disciple of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect was to have a Nine Star strength.
On Chaotian Island, a Nine Star strength was equivalent to a Grandmaster. Among all the disciples of the Martial Saint Palace, there were only one or two Grandmasters.
The more Chen Zong interacted with them, the more he understood how powerful the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect was. Any one of the seven mountains of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect was powerful enough to crush the likes of the Martial Saint Palace and the Ten Thousand Sky Sect. They were all High-Rank Sects, but the gap between them was so huge.
"This is the Minor Spirit Restoring Pill, which can restore Pseudo Spirit Energy. This is the Minor Spirit Refining Pill, which can assist in the cultivation of Pseudo Spirit Energy. This is the Yellow Jade Pill, which can cure internal and external injuries. It can be taken orally or applied externally. This is the Spirit Enhancing Pill, which can restore Mental Energy. This is the Hundred Spirit Pill, which can cure most poisons. These five pills are given to the core disciples of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect, and they are enough for one year," Li Jingming said, "The next time you can get them will be a year later."
Chen Zong looked at them. There were a hundred pills for each type, and they had different fragrances. They were quite extraordinary.
"You can choose your abode." Li Jingming took out a scroll and unfolded it. It was a topographic map of the mountain with many markings. "The red and blue dots here represent the abodes of the core disciples. The blue dot means that the abode has an owner, and the red dot means that the abode has no owner. Basically, the cultivation environment of each abode is similar, but the location and appearance are different."
"Do you have any recommendations, Deacon Li?" Chen Zong asked.
"The High Cliff Pavilion is located on the Flying Feather Cliff. The scenery is unique, and the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth is relatively pure," Li Jingming said after a little thought.
"Okay, the High Cliff Pavilion it is," Chen Zong made a prompt decision.
"The Mountain Lord wants you to go to the Dark Feather Hall to see him after you choose your abode," Li Jingming said as he handed the key to open the High Cliff Pavilion to Chen Zong.
"Thank you, Deacon Li. I will take my leave first." Chen Zong took the green and white feather-shaped key and quickly went to the Dark Feather Hall.
The Dark Feather Mountain Lord asked Chen Zong to come because he added a relationship with Chen Zong on his identity token. Then, he transferred some Sect merits to Chen Zong and instructed Chen Zong to go to the Martial Arts Hall to choose the secret martial arts of the Dark Feather Mountain to cultivate.
After Chen Zong left the Dark Feather Hall, he looked at the information in his identity token. There was an extra column, and Chen Zong edited it.
Master: Tai Yuan Heaven Sect Dark Feather Mountain Lord, Dong Yunkong!
From now on, Chen Zong could directly send a message to the Dark Feather Mountain Lord. Besides the Dark Feather Mountain Lord, no one else could see it.
As for the Sect merits column, it was originally zero, but now it was 100,000.
Chen Zong didn't know how difficult it was to obtain the Sect merits, but 100,000 merits should be a lot.
First, he went to the High Cliff Pavilion.
The High Cliff Pavilion was located five thousand and five hundred meters above the Dark Feather Mountain. It was like a single wing of a giant bird, and it looked as if it would take off at any time. Standing at the tip of the High Cliff Pavilion, Chen Zong looked ahead. It was filled with smoke, like a sea of clouds.
The sea of clouds was vast and magnificent, and it made Chen Zong feel relaxed and happy.
Looking back, about a few thousand meters away from the Flying Feather Cliff, there was a three-story pavilion standing on a relatively high ground. It was grayish-white in color, but it was not monotonous at all. The slanted corners made the entire pavilion feel as if it was about to fly into the sky.
The High Cliff Pavilion!
Between breaths, Chen Zong could feel the fresh air entering his body, as if it was cleansing his body. It was refreshing.
Taking out the green and white Flying Feather Key, Chen Zong opened the protection of the High Cliff Pavilion and entered.
The interior of the High Cliff Pavilion was spotless, and the decorations were simple, but not monotonous. Chen Zong was very satisfied.
"I've had my eyes on the High Cliff Pavilion for a long time, but I couldn't get it. I didn't expect it to become Chen Shidi's cave residence in the end." A familiar voice came from outside the pavilion. It was Yu Zhengxiao.
"Senior Brother Yu." Chen Zong responded with a smile.
"Come, let's exchange messages." Yu Zhengxiao took out his identity token.
Chen Zong also took out his own identity token. The two tokens touched each other, and he activated his spiritual power to add a trace of imprint. Then, a new name appeared in the token.
Chen Zong edited it.
Friend: Yu Zhengxiao, Core Disciple of the Dark Feather Mountain of the Tai Yuan Sky Sect!
"By the way, Chen Shidi, did the Mountain Lord transfer merits to you?" Yu Zhengxiao asked.
"Yes." Chen Zong nodded.
"When my Master took me in as a disciple, he transferred merits to me. That's why I was able to cultivate the Blue Feather Secret Technique in the Martial Arts Hall. Otherwise, if I relied on my own efforts, it would probably take me a few years to accumulate enough merits to exchange for the Blue Feather Secret Technique." Yu Zhengxiao laughed.
This was one of the benefits of being taken in as a disciple by a high-ranking Elder.
Those who weren't taken in as a disciple naturally had to rely on their own efforts to earn merits in the Sect. For people like Yu Zhengxiao and Chen Zong, who were taken in as disciples directly, the Master would definitely give them some support.
Transferring some merits to one's disciple was a form of support. Unknowingly, it would also save the disciple a lot of time, allowing them to cultivate better and walk ahead of their peers.
"Chen Shidi hasn't gone to the Martial Arts Hall yet, right?" Yu Zhengxiao didn't ask how many merits the Blue Feather Mountain Lord transferred to Chen Zong. Instead, he changed the topic.
"Not yet." Chen Zong answered honestly.
"Let's go. I'll take you there." Yu Zhengxiao laughed.
At first, Chen Zong thought that Yu Zhengxiao was a cold and aloof person. But now, he realized that Yu Zhengxiao was the kind of person who was cold and aloof to strangers, but would be more talkative to people he knew and approved of.
