The Path to Immortality

One day later.

The outer sect law enforcement hall completed the investigation at the speed of light, issued a notice and the final punishment.

"Disciple Lu Shan has deceived and extorted money and property from fellow disciples eight times, and has repeatedly threatened fellow disciples, seriously violating the sect rules."

"In order to enforce the law, all of Lu Shan's property is confiscated and compensated to the extorted disciples. Lu Shan's Dantian will be abolished, so that his cultivation will be lost, and he will become a mortal and expelled from Luoyang Sect!"

"I hope other disciples will take this as a warning and never commit the same crime again, otherwise they will be severely punished!"

Abolish Dantian and expel from the sect!

These two can basically be regarded as the most severe punishment in the sect law except for execution on the spot.

It can be seen that Elder Huang really hates Lu Shan.

It can only be said that this is the result of Lu Shan's own fault and he deserves it.

Of course, Fang Ping also made a small contribution in it.

In the final analysis, it was not a clever trick. Those disciples were already dissatisfied, and Fang Ping just followed the trend and pushed them.

From beginning to end, he did not even show up.

That afternoon, after receiving the news that the blackmailed disciples blocked people at the foot of Tiandu Peak and beat Lu Shan, who had become a disabled person, to death on the spot, Fang Ping silently raised the spiritual tea, used tea instead of wine, and toasted himself.

"The death of Ming Yulou earlier temporarily eliminated the hidden danger. Now that Lu Shan has also been solved, this grudge has finally been completely settled."

After more than a year of traveling, Fang Ping has gradually adapted to this cruel world.

………

With the death of Lu Shan and the completion of the disciple withdrawal work, the Tiandu Peak Villa, which was originally quite lively, suddenly became much quieter.

The other outer disciples, before they had time to rejoice that they stayed, were immediately assigned by the deacon of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and were arranged to go down the mountain in batches to patrol and enforce the law in the town of Xunxian at the foot of the mountain.

In previous years, the opening of the mountain gate to recruit disciples usually lasted for three days.

But it takes time for the immortal seekers to come and go.

According to experience, the outer disciples will be busy for at least a week before they can finish the ceremony of opening the mountain gate and accepting disciples.

It is not that troublesome or dangerous to say that this job is troublesome or dangerous. After all, it is right under the nose of the Luoyang Sect’s mountain gate, and generally no one dares to mess around.

For the cultivators who enforce the law, the biggest problem is mental fatigue!

Every day is a variety of trivial matters, and many times they have to ignore them, which annoys the outer disciples enough.

Under the watchful eyes of the public, the disciples who enforce the law must maintain the image of the sect and cannot act recklessly, which is simply double torture.

Fang Ping, who is responsible for patrolling in the town during the day, is also extremely tired. He feels that it is more troublesome than practicing and comprehending the way of alchemy, so he can only grit his teeth and persevere.

Fortunately, the number of immortal seekers who came to Luoyang Sect this year is considered normal, otherwise the disciples responsible for patrolling will be even more tired.

By the way, in addition to the seekers who actively come to the mountain gate, Luoyang Sect also has many subordinate houses in other parts of Liang State, as well as some vassal small sects and cultivator families.

These subordinate houses, families and other vassal forces will also be recommended by disciples.

In addition, some cultivators who feel that they have no hope of building a foundation will choose to serve as the sect's immortal envoys and take the initiative to go to Liang State to search for immortal seedlings with excellent spiritual root qualifications.

For each one found, the sect will give a certain amount of cultivation resources as a reward, or even directly recruit the younger generation and clan members into the outer sect.

As for why not send a large number of people to conduct a comprehensive test of all mortals within the control of the sect, so as to carefully select the immortal seedlings with the best spiritual roots...

This suggestion has not been mentioned by no one, but in the end, the cultivators unanimously agreed that it was unnecessary!

Testing the spiritual roots of all mortals is a huge project that requires a lot of time and manpower and material resources.

Which disciple is willing to waste his precious time in cultivation, running around in the mortal world, just to let others join the sect and share his cultivation resources?

What a great benevolence and righteousness, a saintly act with the world in mind!

In addition, when the cultivation resources are limited and only the best can be included, if the spiritual roots are detected but not recruited, it will undoubtedly make those mortals who know that they have spiritual roots feel resentful.

Life will always find a way out on its own.

Those who are unwilling to be ordinary will try to become casual cultivators and plunder resources everywhere, which will eventually create a lot of instability for the sect itself.

For this reason, it is better not to give mortals this opportunity from the beginning.

If you don’t know that you have spiritual roots and can cultivate immortals, you will naturally have no other ideas.

As for whether this will lead to geniuses with outstanding spiritual roots being left in the mortal world...

It should be noted that although the spiritual energy in the mortal world is thin, it is not absolutely absent after all.

True natural spiritual roots, special spiritual roots, or excellent dual spiritual roots immortal seedlings are completely likely to sense the existence of spiritual energy by themselves, and easily complete the intake of energy into the body like eating and drinking water, thus having combat power comparable to innate warriors or even masters.

At that time, they will naturally be able to contact the existence of immortals and take the initiative to find them as casual cultivators!

Qualifications below dual spiritual roots are relatively less important.

In addition, there are three ways to check for deficiencies and fill in the gaps, namely, the lower house, vassal forces, and immortal envoys. Even if there is still a possibility of omissions, it is already very small.

Anyway, the most important thing these days is cultivation resources, and there is no shortage of people who want to be cultivators.

If you don't cultivate, there are plenty of people who will!

………

In short, with the convergence of seekers from all sides, after three days of three-level assessments, a group of seedlings with good qualifications have been selected one after another.

Among them, there are three immortal seedlings with dual spiritual roots; and more than 20 people with three spiritual roots, but with good spiritual roots, firm Dao heart and good comprehension, were directly accepted into the inner sect.

The rest of the newcomers all joined the outer sect, which made Fang Ping have thousands of junior brothers at once.

As for the legendary heavenly spiritual roots and special spiritual roots, the chances are a bit slim.

Even if the five major immortal sects of Liang Kingdom are added together, they dare not guarantee that they can meet them every time they accept disciples.

If I remember correctly, the last time Luoyang Sect accepted a heavenly spiritual root was three sessions ago, and finally worshipped under the Taoist Zhaixing, one of the five golden elixir cultivators of Luoyang Sect.

If he can grow up smoothly, this person is likely to add another golden elixir to Luoyang Sect.

But anyway, with the successful conclusion of the five-yearly accepting disciple ceremony, the outer sect, which has been quite restless recently, finally ushered in a long-lost quiet.

A week has passed in the blink of an eye.

Fang Ping, who had just finished his routine training and was about to continue comprehending the Fiery Sun True Fire, suddenly remembered something and slapped his head.

"Oh no, I almost forgot about the exchange meeting for outer disciples!"

This spontaneous exchange meeting is held every once in a while.

It just happened to be the opening of the mountain gate once every five years, and a large number of new disciples joined, so the scale of this exchange meeting has expanded a lot.

"No wonder it's so quiet outside today, everyone went to the back mountain of Tiandu Peak."

Fortunately, the exchange meeting lasted until dark, so it was not too late to go now.

Fang Ping immediately packed up, changed into a Taoist robe, and hurriedly left his courtyard with the elixir that he had refined in advance in his storage bag.
