Refining Taoism and ascending to immortality

According to the rules of the sect, all true disciples who have been promoted to the Condensed Dan realm can take up a position in the sect.

Zhou Qing nodded, his eyes were clear, and above the top of the door, a light descended, reflecting the clouds from outside, and it was full of colorful mist, like Danxia. He knew that this matter was important, and his face was full of contemplation.

With his background as a direct descendant of the Luochuan Zhou family and a direct disciple of the Dongtian Zhenren, he had many choices for positions in the sect. It was precisely because there were many choices that he had to be more cautious.

"There are two directions for positions in the sect." The elder Zhou Sheng sat on a high platform, with golden clouds and rain in front of him, which was beautiful. He held a jade ruyi in his hand, which was permeated with five colors. He spoke slowly and said, "Idle positions, or important positions."

There are many idle positions in the sect. If you choose this one, you can just hang a name and stay or leave as you like. Anyway, no one cares and no one asks, it's easy. But at the same time, without power and influence, you can't accumulate connections.

If you choose an important position in the sect, you will have great power and unlimited glory, but you will have people watching you from below and above, so you must dare to do things, be able to do things, and do good things. If you fail to perform as expected and step down in disgrace, it will be embarrassing.

Anyway, there are pros and cons, depending on your personality and choices.

Zhou Qing raised his head, his eyes were as clear as the sun after the rain, and he said in a sonorous voice: "Elder, I choose an important position in the sect."

This point is straightforward and unquestionable.

For him, he will have to challenge the top ten disciples in the sect, and even plot to become a real person in the sect in the future. Under the lofty goal, he cannot afford to lie flat.

The elder nodded, not surprised by Zhou Qing's choice. He thought about it, took out a jade book from his sleeve, let the Taoist boy in front of him take it, and handed it to Zhou Qing, saying: "The above positions are all you have the opportunity to obtain."

Zhou Qing took it and unfolded it. There were at least dozens of positions on it, and each one had tiny words under it, introducing the content of this position and how to obtain the position.

Different positions and different powers in hand also have different degrees of difficulty in obtaining them. Some only need Luochuan Zhou to say hello to take up their posts. Some have to be personally inspected by the dean above before they can take up their posts.

"Don't be anxious about the positions in the sect. You can go back and take your time." The elder looked at Zhou Qing, his eyes as bright as glass, and said: "Your achievement of a first-grade elixir is rare in a thousand years, so you should hold a ceremony. The sect and the clan also think so."

When Zhou Qing heard this, he felt a sense of deep meaning. Thinking of the few words he heard from his sixth uncle Zhou Chen about the upper echelons of the sect, he hesitated for a moment and agreed, saying: "I will cooperate with all my strength."

Seeing this, the elder smiled lightly and said: "Such a ceremony is also a good thing for you. Others want to hold it, but they don't have this gimmick when they don't become a first-grade elixir."

Zhou Qing nodded. The sect and the family borrowed the gimmick of his achievement of a first-grade elixir, and he also benefited from the sect and the family. It was a win-win move.

"Oh, right." The elder suddenly remembered something. He sat up straight. The sky behind him was as clear as autumn, washed by the moonlight, and it was cold. He said, "There is news from the sect that Wu Zhong of the Xia Yuan Wu family has become a disciple of Wen Hui Zhenren of the Zuo Qiu Meng family and is studying under this Dong Tian Zhenren."

This matter is not a small matter.

On the one hand, Wu Zhong has achieved the second-grade Dancheng, which is a first-class genius even in the upper Xuan sect like Zhenyi Sect. With his background, he will also be a powerful figure to impact the top ten disciples in the sect in the future.

On the other hand, the Xia Yuan Wu family and the Zuo Qiu Meng family are both top families in Zhenyi Sect. The cooperation between the two top families, even if it is limited cooperation, is not trivial.

It is only because the younger generation in front of him who has achieved the first-grade Dancheng is too outstanding, overshadowing the light of his peers, that it seems silent.

"Wu Zhong." Zhou Qing heard this name, and his eyes gradually filled with coldness. Although the other party was suppressed by him in the alchemy meeting, he was indeed first-class in terms of qualifications and background, and he would still compete with him.

But if he could beat him once, he could beat him a second time and a third time. Wu Zhong was staring at him, but he was looking at the whole world. Thinking of this, Zhou Qing said, "I will pay attention."

"Just pay more attention."

The elder stopped talking and didn't say anything more.

The true disciples of the same class as him are still unknown in Dongsheng Luzhou, and not many people care about them, so they just need to practice quietly.

And Zhou Qing not only has to deal with the fierce competition of the true disciples of the previous class, but I am afraid that even the top ten disciples among the true disciples in the sect have already paid attention to him and made arrangements.

The one who can cause such a sensation just after entering the Danhua stage and attract the attention of many forces in the sect is Zhou Qing.

After a while, Zhou Qing said goodbye and left. When he went out, he heard the sound of the Taoist temple behind him closing. It was a kind of quiet water rushing in, entering the quietness of the grotto. Wherever it went, it hid everything in the darkness, peaceful and quiet.

Sensing the quietness of the Taoist temple behind him, in front of him was the golden fire falling from the hanging peak from time to time, one still and one moving, constantly circulating.

Zhou Qing looked for a while and took a deep breath. He first sent a flying letter to the real ancient Mingxiu Guanghua Dongtian Fan Jingfan Zhenren, and then left this place with a flash of light, heading for his cave Taihe Island in Dongsheng Luzhou.

Entering from the entrance of Taihe Island like a pot mouth, as soon as he got inside, a large number of spiritual inspirations immediately surged over and hit him. When it touched the Dansha power around him, the remaining color fell into large and small treasure halos, deep inside and golden outside, constantly rotating.

Farther away, a magnificent and vast spiritual inspiration was surging. From time to time, a golden light wheel leaped out, turned for a moment, and fell into the unfathomable water below. Then the golden and water energy became stronger, making all kinds of sounds.

Taihe Island was originally a first-class blessed land. After the rise of Zhou Qing and the increasing support of top aristocratic families like the Luochuan Zhou family, the entire blessed land was changing every day, with more and more inspiration.

But even so, compared with caves like Changling Miaozhen Yudao Cave, the gap is still real and visible to the naked eye.

There is a natural chasm between the blessed land and the cave sky, which is insurmountable.

For monks, cultivation resources are different, which has a great impact on cultivation.

Zhou Qing was thinking about something and came to his cave in Blessed Land. Just after crossing Hongqiao, before he could reach the door, a group of people who had received the news had already arrived.

When they saw Zhou Qing, they all saluted and said, "I have met the island owner."

No matter who it was, looking at Zhou Qing at this moment, it was like seeing a god, with a kind of piety and joy on his face.

With the news that Zhou Qing achieved a first-grade elixir in the alchemy meeting, the entire Taihe Island was shocked. They really didn't expect that they would have such a uniquely talented island owner. What followed was unconcealable excitement.

Because there is such an island owner sitting in charge, the future of Taihe Island in the Zhenyi Sect is bound to be bright. It is easy to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and they can also get the treatment of a chicken or a dog being promoted.

Zhou Qing can sense the inner changes of everyone and has a gentle smile on his face. This kind of thing is a good thing for the entire Taihe Island and can enhance the cohesion of Taihe Island.

After he said a few simple words, he led a few people to the depths of the cave under the awe-inspiring eyes of everyone.

After going up to the high platform, there were sparse jade falling behind, like the falling of dense snow in winter. When it reached the ground, there was a sound of collision of broken jade. Zhou Qing sat down on the cloud couch, condescendingly looking down at the person standing below. The two people in the front row.

The one on the left is a woman, with black silk stockings and a white skirt, and her eyes are full of energy; the one on the right is a man, wearing a sword and a crown, with a broad forehead and long cheeks, and a heroic appearance.

Zhong Wen and Lian Lian are not only monks who have perfected the elixir, but are also shrewd and capable. They are running Taihe Island in an orderly manner these days.

It's just that after he became a first-level elixir, Mu Xiu was destroyed by Lin Feng and was targeted by all the major forces in the sect. The situation in the sect was extremely complicated. If the two of them were to take charge of Taihe Island again, they would be powerless.

Perhaps, it’s time for the clan to find a real Yuanying master to come to the island to take charge of the overall situation.

"only,"

Even in a top family like the Zhou family in Luochuan, Master Yuanying generally has a high status and power. It is not easy to find a suitable person who can volunteer to come to Taihe Island to work for him and become a housekeeper.

"Island owner."

Zhong Wen and Lian Lian didn't know what Zhou Qing was thinking. They stepped forward one by one to report what happened on the island.

Zhou Qing didn't say anything, but he learned from the reports of the two that since the news that he had become a first-class elixir spread among the family and sect, there were forces in the sect and family contacting the island.

Under such a situation, if it is handled well, Taihe Island can quickly gain a foothold in Dongsheng Continent and build a network of contacts; if it is not handled well, it will suffer backlash and make a mess.

He couldn't help but think of what he had just thought, that Taihe Island really needed a Nascent Soul Master to take charge of the overall situation and deal with such disturbing matters.

After temporarily dealing with the island's affairs, Zhou Qing sent away the two housekeepers Zhong Wen and Lian Lian and asked them to do their work. He changed into a clean cassock and went to the incense house at the back.

Lingkong Xiangshe is as quiet as ever. When you raise your eyes to meet the mountains and lower your head to see the water, smoke and clouds surround the bamboo trees, and the blue and white colors blend together, slowly unfolding like a brocade.

As soon as Zhou Qing came over, he saw his uncle Zhou Ming, wearing a crane cloak, sitting in front of the stream. He was not fishing, but playing with three or five little cranes.

Under the light of the sky, he had long eyebrows and long eyes, and a gentle face. His whole person was filled with a kind of joy and he was very relaxed.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing's eyes moved, and he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Whether in the previous life or in this life, this uncle of mine had done a lot for him, and now, through his own hard work, he finally had a good life.

Such a change of regrets from the previous life hits my heart directly, and joy arises spontaneously, permeating the whole body, making the entire Tao body and the power of Dansha in the body become lively.

There is a kind of joy, relaxation, and happiness from the inside out after the constraints and shackles are broken.

Zhou Qing stood for a while, and when he saw his uncle turning around and seeing him with surprise and surprise in his eyes, he smiled, walked up to greet him and said, "Uncle."

"Zhou Qing, you, you."

Zhou Ming looked at his nephew, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

The last time they met, he was very happy to learn that his nephew had become a top-grade elixir, and he felt like he expected his son to become a dragon. But I didn't expect that I would be happy too early. Not only did my nephew become a top-grade elixir, he also became a first-grade elixir!

Such a nephew was beyond his imagination, because in the entire Hengnan Zhou family, no one seemed to have achieved a first-grade golden elixir for so many years.

Regarding his achievement of becoming a first-grade elixir, Zhou Qing spoke in Spring and Autumn style, and then talked about the current events, including his worship in Changling Miaozhen Yudao Cave, and his preparations to attack the top ten disciples of Zhenyi Sect in the future.

Zhou Ming listened quietly with a smile on his face. He couldn't get involved in such matters, but he could still share the joy of his nephew. His nephew had a bright future far beyond his imagination.

"Uncle." After Zhou Qing finished speaking, he glanced at the sparkling water in the stream not far away, reflecting the clouds in the sky like a polished bronze mirror. He withdrew his gaze and said, "I have been with the ancient people in the clan. Contact Master Tianming of Mingxiu Guanghua Cave to see if Master Tianming can examine your strange disease, uncle."

"If a cave god like Master Tianming takes action, he will definitely be able to regain his youth."

Zhou Qing believed that with his current status in the clan and sect, if he asked Master Tianming to do such a thing, Master Tianming would not refuse.

"Dong Tianren."

Even though Zhou Ming had a calm temperament, he was still shocked when he heard that his nephew asked Dongzhenren to treat him. He had never interacted with such a big shot.

Zhou Qing was about to speak when suddenly he felt the communication jade pendant on his body ringing. He took it out and took a look. He looked at his uncle and said, "Uncle, Fan Zhenren, who built Guanghua Cave in the ancient Ming Dynasty, has arrived. I'll go out to pick him up." one time."

"good."

Zhou Ming didn't say much, just nodded.

Zhou Qing immediately stood up, raised a stream of smoke, and came to the gate of Taihe Island Blessed Land. As soon as he arrived, he saw a stream of precious energy shooting out from a distance. After unfolding, it looked like a flying palace with stars inside. , white jade steps are used, and large and small treasure lanterns are decorated under the eaves. After being lit, soft light fills the air.

Then, when the door opened, Master Fan Jing walked out. He saw Zhou Qing, glanced at Taihe Island behind him, and said, "This is my first time in this blessed land. Seeing the weather, Purple green soars into the sky and is prosperous. It will definitely become one of the best caves in Dongsheng Continent in the future.”

Zhou Qing said a few polite words, and while stepping in, he spoke and said, "I didn't expect Master Fan to go there in person. I feel ashamed."

Fan Zhenren, the great steward of the ancient Ming Dynasty Xiu Guanghua Cave, had a smile on his face and looked amiable. He said: "Originally, I was planning to send someone else here. First, I don't feel at ease when others are doing things. Secondly, I I haven’t been to your Taihe Island yet, so after hearing about it, I took the initiative to come over.”

Seeing this real person being so polite, what else could Zhou Qing say, he could only keep this in mind, and he would have to return the favor in the future.

Once inside, Master Fan Jing saw Zhou Ming and said to Zhou Qing: "According to Master Tianming's arrangement, your uncle will be temporarily taken to Zhengu Mingxiu Guanghua Cave. When he recovers, we will let him come back."
