The Path to Immortality

"How dare I make a joke about such a big event?"

Fang Ping said sternly.

Seeing what he said, Elder Wu became a little more serious.

Using his spiritual consciousness, he swept over Fang Ping.

Since the other party did not deliberately conceal it, at that moment, Fang Ping could feel his body being swept by some invisible force, as if he was standing naked in front of the other party, and was directly seen.

But when he came now, he didn't bring anything he shouldn't have brought, and he had covered up everything he should cover up, so he was extremely calm.

Withdrawing his spiritual consciousness, Elder Wu nodded slightly: "It's really the fifth level of Qi training, and the foundation is quite solid. I haven't practiced any methods that are eager for quick success."

He pondered for a few seconds and said, "Give me your outer disciple identity token."

Fang Ping untied the sign and handed it over with both hands.

Elder Wu scanned the token with his spiritual consciousness and read out the information inside: "The sect that has advanced ten years, the four spiritual root qualifications... It turns out that I was able to join the sect because of the shadow of the elders. Not bad, not bad!"

It is extremely rare to be able to cultivate to the fifth level of Qi training within ten years with the qualification of the Four Spiritual Roots.

The sect’s contribution also exceeded one thousand.

Plus a clean life experience!

Such conditions fully meet the requirements of inner disciples. Even if Elder Wu wanted to refuse, it would be difficult to find a reason.

What's more, he has no grudge against Fang Ping, and he will not block his disciple's path at will.

Just out of caution, I asked one more question: "The outer sect lacks resources and has the qualifications of the four spiritual roots. I'm afraid it won't be easy to reach the fifth level of Qi training, right?"

Fang Ping had already thought about this issue.

At this moment, he said calmly: "The disciple's family has passed down a book [Preliminary Explanation of Dan Dao], and he has already started to study it before entering the sect. After more than ten years, he has now been able to refine Yuan Ning Dan, relying on the elixir. Earn some meager spiritual stones."

"You still know a little bit about alchemy!"

Elder Wu suddenly realized that this statement made complete sense.

But as a result, the way he looked at Fang Ping was a little different.

Although inner sect disciples who have some knowledge of alchemy and four spiritual roots have little hope of building a foundation, it is entirely possible for them to reach the late stage of Qi training, or even reach the tenth level of Qi training, and become an outer sect deacon in the future. .

Although he is a foundation-building monk, his lifespan is short, maybe...

Thinking of the younger generations in the family, Elder Wu made a plan to form a good relationship with the disciple in front of him.

I wonder if I can help take care of my children in the future.

He stroked his beard and said to Fang Ping: "Disciple Fang Ping has a firm Taoist heart, diligent practice, and excellent conduct. After investigation, he can be promoted to an inner disciple."

As he spoke, he took out a blank voucher from his storage bag.

After entering Fang Ping's identity information, he asked Fang Ping to leave a mana mark on it, and finally used his spiritual consciousness to leave his outer sect elder mark.

After such triple confirmation, Elder Wu handed Fang Ping the outer sect assessment certificate.

He said with a smile: "Within ten days, you can use this voucher to report to the Zhengyang Hall of the inner sect. Then you can choose a cave at the foot of Luoyunfeng Mountain and become an inner sect disciple of the Luoyang Sect."

"Thank you, elder!"

After receiving the certificate, Fang Ping felt confident and thanked the other party.

Seeing Fang Ping turn around to leave after saluting, Elder Wu stopped him and said to himself: "As we get older, when we see outstanding young people, we always like to take care of them."

After saying that, he took out a jade token and handed it to Fang Ping.

"Take this and show it when you report to Zhengyang Palace. I have some connections in the inner sect, so I should be able to give you some convenience."

Later, Elder Wu gave Fang Ping some instructions on the necessary procedures to get started.

Is this because you think you have some value and want to sell a favor?

After understanding the other party's thoughts, Fang Ping was not polite, took the jade token, thanked the elder again, and then turned and left.

Looking at Fang Ping's strong figure as he came down the mountain, Elder Wu saw himself in a trance, and couldn't help but lament the ruthlessness of time again.

"Which blind disciple came to bother Mr. Wu again?"

Seeing that Elder Wu had not returned for a long time, urging and complaints from several young women came from the cave.

Hearing their voices, Elder Wu's passion seemed to come back instantly. He laughed, turned around and strode back to the cave.

………

Pass the assessment for promotion to inner disciple and get the certificate!

From this moment on, Fang Ping was actually no longer an outer disciple.

In the past, any outer sect disciple who was promoted to the inner sect would cause considerable discussion and repercussions among the outer sect.

But the timing of Fang Ping's election was very good, it happened to be the node of opening a sect to recruit and remove disciples every five years.

Except for several fellow disciples who have friendship with Fang Ping and more than ten members of the trading meeting who received advance notice from him, the other disciples were attracted by the important event that happens every five years and had no idea that there were disciples who quietly Completed the transformation from outer door to inner door.

After spending the last night in a familiar courtyard.

Fang Ping, who had packed his belongings and declined Zhou Yang, Yan Xu and others' offer to see him off early, looked back without any nostalgia.

He rose up with his sword and flew towards Luo Yunfeng.

It also flies to a new starting point in the journey of spiritual practice.

………

In front of the mountain gate.

I had visited Liu Wuchen at the inner gate several times before. Every time he came in and out, he had to be questioned by the guards about his purpose of visit. His identity was verified before he was allowed to enter, and he was not allowed to move around at will.

But this time, Fang Ping showed no signs of restraint.

Facing the two mountain-guarding disciples who stopped him as usual, Fang Ping showed the certificate given by the foundation-building elder.

The stern-faced guard took the certificate and looked at it for a few times, and his expression softened visibly: "It turns out that you are the junior brother who was promoted from the outer sect to the inner sect. Congratulations!"

"Junior brother, please~"

The guard on the side also nodded to him with a smile, let Fang Ping in, and enthusiastically pointed out the location of Zhengyang Hall.

After thanking the two of them, Fang Ping put away his voucher and followed the directions and arrived at the Zhengyang Hall halfway up the front mountain.

This is a simple and solemn hall with a top that is thirty feet high.

Standing in front of the main hall, the monk looked extremely small, making people look at him with a sense of awe.

After taking a look at the Zhengyang Palace plaque hanging outside the main hall door, Fang Ping confirmed that he was on the right track and quickly stepped into the hall.

The furnishings in the main hall are equally plain and simple.

Except for the statue of the founder of Luoyang Sect, there is only a row of service points.

Not only Fang Ping, but also other sect disciples came in and out here to handle various general affairs.

Fang Ping looked around briefly, found an empty seat, and expressed his intention.

The person in charge here is an inner disciple who is in the late stages of Qi training.

Judging from the identity card on the table, his name should be Jiang Yucheng.

After learning about Fang Ping's intention, he immediately stood up and called over an elderly foundation-building monk who was sitting on a recliner not far away with his eyes closed and concentrating.

The old man was a little careless at first. After taking Fang Ping's promotion certificate and Elder Wu's jade token, he glanced at them and was slightly startled.

"It's rare to actually get Old Man Wu's jade medal."

Because of this favor, most of the originally complicated procedures can be skipped.

However, the necessary procedures still need to be followed.
