It was impossible to guess the inside story. Many things in the cultivation world were hidden from individual cultivators like them. In fact, even if there was a sect with a Taoist tradition, it was divided into a few core sects and a few so-called small sects. For example, Du Ou Zi's Kongling Sect and the sect that Fang Shangji was familiar with were all such small sects. They were stronger than individual cultivators, but their history was short and their inheritance was unstable. They were in a state where they could be cut off at any time.
During this period, another incident happened. Two Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Wall Sect came to Mount Wang Ding. Their purpose was to lock up the traitor disciple, the mother of the Wall Sect who was holding the infant in her arms!
It was said that in order to participate in the Battle of Mount Wang Ding, she stole the most spiritual salamander of the Wall Sect. Along the way, after entering the country of Liang, she used the salamander's death to establish her own Taoist foundation!
In the eyes of the Wall Sect, this was an out-and-out rebellion. It was a vicious act of using the sect's resources to achieve one's own goal. However, the woman obviously did not think so. She believed that the spiritual salamander was carefully cultivated by her … It was difficult to judge who was right or wrong in this kind of family matter. Outsiders could not interfere. However, the two visitors of the Wall Sect did not achieve their goal because the woman had successfully obtained the approval of most of the Foundation Establishment cultivators present. The time to solve the problem was delayed until after Chaoguang Ferry.
"It's harder for women to cultivate than men. However, once they succeed in cultivation, there are many opportunities. If all of you here were not men, but delicate women, I'm afraid the situation would be much better than now!"
Fang Shangji sighed.
In the cultivation world, at least in this world, women's cultivation was very popular. Especially in the Foundation Establishment stage, the ratio of men to women was very different. This made the female Taoist foundation very precious.
As a cultivator, who did not want to have a Taoist companion of the same level? To cultivate day and night? If the Taoist companion had some beauty and charm, she would be flocked to like a flock of ducks. This was also the reason why this woman had been here for only a month and so many cultivators were willing to support her.
He Shangji shook his head, "That woman built her Taoist foundation because of the spirit of the Spirit Absorbing Salamander, right? The Wall Sect's martial arts are strange and mystical. These disciples don't know the dangers of the Jianghu. If they really do it, don't get sucked in again at night! "
Everyone laughed. This was a classic case of sour grapes being unable to eat them. Sect disciples did indeed have less time to gain experience outside compared to rogue cultivators like them, but they had a formal system and a long heritage. The so-called dual cultivation also had rules to follow, it was not an evil technique.
All of them had reached Foundation Establishment before the age of thirty-five, which was also the minimum requirement for Chao Guang. This age was the prime of a man's life, the time when his battle prowess was at its strongest. Although cultivators could also control their emotions and desires, there was a limit.
Laying Foundation is the beginning of the Taoist root. It is the stage where cultivators have the ability but still have flaws in mind control. There is a high demand for female cultivators, which shows the preciousness of the beautiful baby mother.
To these rogue cultivators, this was a person they could only watch from afar and could not get close to, so they could only happily talk about it from afar.
Lou Xiaoyi was one of the more clear-headed ones among them. "Putting the solution to the problem after the ferry? Could it be that this woman had the confidence to be chosen? What if she couldn't be chosen? Would she obediently be locked back? "
Wen Qianli sneered, "She's not the only one who couldn't be chosen. There will always be someone who is willing to marry her!
Even if the sect disciples don't want her, isn't there still us? I see that Shang Ji is a little tempted. That pair of thieving eyes never left that woman. Who knows, when the matter of redeeming people comes to an end, the brothers who stay behind can help Shang Ji settle this thought, okay? "
Everyone cheered. Fang Shang Ji laughed and scolded,
"Are you guys sure that I won't be chosen? I think Qianli is just using my name to say his own wish! "
From afar, Murong Qi ran over. He was someone who couldn't stay idle and liked to gather in places where there were many people. Therefore, he often mixed in with the sect cultivators and only brought a pair of ears. Even if others hated him and didn't talk to him, he didn't care. Instead, he became the spy for this group of rogue cultivators.
Lou Xiaoyi was very emotional. The pressure of cultivation had polished the rogue cultivators to be incomparably smooth. They looked like they had no edges and corners, but who knew what their true hearts were like?
Don't look at how these few people were laughing and joking. In terms of the ability to seize opportunities, in terms of persistence, in terms of perseverance, in terms of ruthlessness, most of the sect disciples couldn't compare.
Murong Qi ran closer and whispered, "Great Master Hui Ke is here! I estimate that the Dao Seeking Mirror will be activated very soon! We have to start preparing! "
Everyone was solemn and their faces were solemn!
The flying ship from beyond the heavens had never stayed in the lower bound for more than a day! They didn't know what the reason was. Was it because they didn't want to stay for long? Or was it because of other reasons that they couldn't stay for long?
But to the foundation level cultivators who longed to board the ship, time was a little tight. Everyone wanted to be the first to go up and verify. They were afraid that in the end, there wouldn't be enough time and they would lose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Then, who would be the first? Who would be the last? This was a problem! If it wasn't solved well, there would be a dispute!
Thus, after countless times of chaos, the Chaoguang cultivators accepted the pleas of the cultivators and left behind a precious tool for them — the Dao Seeking Mirror!
This item was something that the cultivators of this world were unable to make. It required at least a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert and above to make. It was handed over to the Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert several thousand years ago for safekeeping. The purpose was to make a rough assessment of the participating Foundation level cultivators before the flying ship descended!
In the end, those who were outstanding would be the first to go, and those who weren't were the last to be selected by the Chaoguang cultivators. This could be considered fair. It was much more peaceful than the past, where it depended on the strength of the sect or whose fist was stronger.
In this low-level cultivation world, there weren't many Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts. The Dao Seeking Mirror was also not an offensive weapon. Thus, it was controlled by a few Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts in turns. Whoever was in charge of the flying ship would bring it along. No one dared to take it for themselves. If the Higher Realm cultivators were angered, Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts like them would be wiped out with a wave of their hands.
To determine a Foundation level cultivator's potential, one had to look at their temperament. Of course, it would be best if they were outstanding in other aspects as well.
Temperament was an all-encompassing thing, and there was no way to set a standard for it. It included the way a cultivator treated others, their likes and dislikes, their personality and habits, their attitude towards nature, their attitude towards life, their attitude towards cultivation, and so on and so forth. Using a phrase from Lou Xiaoyi's previous life to explain, it was the view of the world, the view of nature, and the view of cultivation formed during a cultivator's growth!
How the Chaoguang cultivators judged a cultivator's potential was something they didn't know. Perhaps there was a special method, or perhaps … it was based on intuition!
But there was one thing that could be determined through the methods of cultivation. That was the persistence of the Dao Heart!
Based on the major events that happened in the short span of one to two decades of cultivation, such as the persistence of the Dao, the choice of life and death, the respect for the Heavenly Dao, the determination to not lose oneself amidst the murderous Qi, the attitude one had when facing the fact that the Dao and life could not coexist …
All of these could be extracted from the cultivator's consciousness by the Dao Seeking Mirror, giving a fair assessment!
The Dao Heart was not only about temperament, but temperament was also the most important part of the Dao Heart!
