Chapter 147 Details in the Valley

(Haha! After a night’s sleep, the fever finally subsided! Wangyu, I will update you all soon. I hope you will continue to support!)

After the old man surnamed Ye completed the transaction with Han Li, he took him to fly to the meeting hall with his magic weapon to reply to Zhong Lingdao, the leader of Yellow Maple Valley.

Not long after, Han Li stood in front of the huge stone palace tens of meters high, looking curiously at the several Yellow Maple Valley disciples guarding the door. The magic power of these people is much deeper than that of Han Li, and they seem to have at least the tenth level of basic skills. Han Li couldn't help but secretly dumbfounded, and took another high look at the strength of this sect's cultivators.

When the old man surnamed Ye arrived here with him just now, he asked Han Li to stay outside the hall and wait for Master Zhong's summons, but he walked in himself. This resulted in the embarrassing situation of Han Li standing alone outside the palace, waiting, which made Han Li curse for a while.

Fortunately, after a while, a middle-aged man in white clothes walked out of it. This man came directly to Han Li and said coldly: Come in with me, the boss has summoned you. "

Then, he ignored Han Li's reaction and walked back on his own. Han Li secretly smiled bitterly. It seemed that he, a cultivator at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage, didn't put him in the eyes of the other party at all, and he didn't even want to say another word to him!

Although he was very dissatisfied with this person, Han Li knew very well how important he was here, so he followed closely behind him and walked into the main hall.

After passing three gates guarded by disciples, Han Li saw the leader of Yellow Maple Valley, Zhong Lingdao, a middle-aged man with a long beard.

On both sides of the hall, there were more than a dozen other people in different clothes sitting. When Han Li came in, these people looked at Han Li for a while, but seeing that Han Li's appearance was ordinary and unattractive, they all looked away without interest. The old man named Ye and Junior Brother Wang were also sitting among them.

"My little friend's name is Han Li!" Master Zhong asked calmly.

"Yes, disciple Han Li, I have met the master!" Han Li looked sincere and stepped forward to pay homage.

"No need to be too polite! Since my little friend can come here with the Order of Immortal Ascension, then this sect leader will definitely abide by the rules set by the sages and take this little friend into my sect." Zhong Ling said, smiling kindly like a spring breeze, and said The sleeves flicked lightly.

However, Han Li felt that his body, which was about to sink, was gently lifted up by an invisible gentle force, making him unable to continue paying homage. It shocked him and made him a little more in awe of the leader.

"It stands to reason that in addition to joining this sect, my little friend is also qualified to take the Foundation Establishment Pill. But before that, I heard from Junior Brother Ye that I gave up this Foundation Establishment Pill and gave it to others. Is this true?" Headmaster Zhong didn't say any more nonsense, but directly stated the purpose of calling him into the palace.

"Yes, Master! This disciple feels that his qualifications are low and taking this foundation-building pill is too luxurious. It is better to give such a precious thing to other senior brothers who need it more!"

After Han Li said this, he still felt a faint pain in his heart. This was the Foundation Establishment Pill! Not those ordinary pills that you can eat as snacks!

If such a foundation-building pill were placed in the world of cultivating immortals, it would be strange if it wouldn't cause a bloody storm! And although he had the mysterious vial as a backup, Han Li really didn't have much confidence that he could completely imitate a spiritual elixir like the Foundation Establishment Pill! What he said was particularly untrue.

Han Li felt very reluctant to part with him, but on the surface he looked very obedient and respectful, which satisfied most of the people in the palace.

"Okay! I am very pleased that little friend Han has such a big heart. But no matter how relieved I am, I will not let you make this sacrifice in vain!" After saying that, Zhong Lingdao turned his head and faced The old man named Ye.

"Junior Brother Ye! The Foundation Establishment Pill that little friend Han gave up will still be taken by your grandnephew. However, junior brother must make good compensation for the little friend's loss, and he must be satisfied!" Zhong Lingdao said solemnly.

"Haha! Master, you can rest assured, I will definitely satisfy Master Nephew Han!" Seeing that things were as smooth as he imagined, the old man couldn't help but be elated and responded repeatedly.

Seeing the old man's appearance, Zhong Lingdao twirled his long beard and smiled slightly. This time the problem could be solved so easily, which made Master Zhong breathe a sigh of relief.

"This is how the matter of the Foundation Establishment Pill has been settled. From today on, little friend Han will be a disciple of our sect. Junior Brother Wang, please arrange the residence of Junior Nephew Han. By the way, tell him about the sect rules of this valley and let him teach you the skills first." Disciples are practicing, and if they have outstanding performance, they will be promoted!" Zhong Lingdao said without revealing anything, and ordered to Junior Brother Wang.

"Yes, Master!" Junior Brother Wang stood up and obeyed the order.

So Uncle Wang immediately took Han Li outside the hall and began to tell him some rules and regulations in Yellow Maple Valley and introduce some common sense things to him. Han Li listened attentively along the way and had a more or less preliminary understanding of Yellow Maple Valley.

There are more than 10,000 disciples in the Yellow Maple Valley, of which more than 90% are in the Qi Refining Stage. There are only a few hundred disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage. These people are the backbone of the Yellow Maple Valley.

There are only a handful of great masters in the alchemy stage who go up to the top. Basically, they have been in seclusion for many years and no longer care about things in the valley. Unless there is a major matter related to the life and death of Huang Maple Valley, even Master Zhong himself will never see these people.

As for the only Yuanying-level monk in the valley, he is an uncle of Master Zhong and others. It is said that he is more than 900 years old. The baby comes out of the body and travels thousands of miles. He is a living god on land. However, this old man is no longer in the valley and no longer crosses the country. Instead, he has traveled to other countries. No one knows when he will be able to return to the valley.

There are so many disciples in the Qi Refining Stage in the valley, so of course it is impossible for everyone to take the Foundation Establishment Pill! Only the most outstanding and qualified disciples will receive this honor.

Therefore, every ten years, disciples under the age of thirty in the valley undergo a series of selections, and the competition is no less intense than the outside Immortal Ascension Conference. Basically, only those true immortal cultivation wizards who have practiced basic skills to the eleventh or even the twelfth level can stand out and be qualified to take the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Even among the hundreds of best disciples who were strictly selected in this way, after taking the Foundation Establishment Pill, only twenty or thirty people could pass the Foundation Establishment and enter the Foundation Establishment stage. Others have at most advanced their magic power and refined their basic skills to the peak, but are still stuck in the Qi refining stage.

So naturally, the disciples in the valley were divided into three major classes.

The lowest level are those disciples who have never even taken the Foundation Establishment Pill. These people are the most numerous in the valley, and they are also the ones with the weakest magic power. Not only do these people usually do the most chores and spend the least time practicing, they are also the ones with the lowest status in the valley, although they have an impressive-sounding title of "deacon disciples."

Those whose status is slightly better than theirs are those disciples who have taken the Foundation Establishment Pill but have not entered the Foundation Establishment stage. The basic skills of these people have basically reached their peak, and their magic power is much stronger than that of the deacon disciples. They can even use some simple intermediate skills, so they assume the responsibility of leading and controlling many deacon disciples. , usually called "consul disciple".

The ones with the highest status and the best treatment are the disciples who can enter the foundation building stage. Only these, the beloved ones of God, can be regarded as the real cultivators of immortality, the real monks who have embarked on the path of cultivating immortality.

After these people successfully build the foundation, they will be allowed to find a place with sufficient spiritual energy in the entire Taiyue Mountains. They can practice alone in a single cave. They do not need to take on any chores and can only concentrate on practicing. Moreover, they will also be allocated to various kinds of gifts every year. Rare materials and a large number of spiritual stones to help them speed up their cultivation. Their only obligation is to help their sect when they encounter a powerful enemy, and they must not disobey or obey.

In addition to these disciples in Huang Maple Valley, there are also various stewards who control the real power within the sect.

These stewards all emerged from those disciples who entered the Foundation Building Stage and after a period of practice, knew that they had no hope of entering the Pill Formation Stage. They voluntarily gave up continuing to practice, and were willing to take charge of the specialized management of miscellaneous things in the valley. The old man surnamed Ye and the dozen or so people attending the meeting in the main hall were all stewards like this.

In fact, strictly speaking, the leader Zhong Lingdao is also a senior steward, but he is responsible for the overall planning of the entire sect, and is the steward of other stewards.

What really determines the life and death of a sect are those monks above the alchemy stage who ignore foreign affairs. It is because of their existence that the evil heretics dare not come to bully them, and Huang Maple Valley can still stand as one of the seven immortal sects to this day. Otherwise, Huang Maple Valley, as one of the Seven Immortal Sects, would have been wiped out countless times by demons with powerful magic powers.

Of course, the above-mentioned contents are not the original words of Uncle Wang, but Han Li's own secret summary based on the other party's words and insinuations.

This gave Han Li a clear understanding of his environment and status, which would be of great help to him in getting along with other sect members in the future.
