Chapter 315: The Sect’s Preparations
Qingyun Immortal City, the City Lord’s Mansion.
Zhou Ling followed a young attendant into a very grand hall.
In addition to him, there are also many monks coming in and out of the hall, and their cultivation levels are not low, mainly with golden elixir cultivation.
There are very few foundation-building monks.
The attendant arranged for Zhou Ling to wait at a seat.
"Zhou Zhizheng, please wait a moment, I will go and report to the city lord!"
The attendant said respectfully and walked towards the inner hall.
Zhou Ling looked around and saw that there were many monks waiting in the hall. Apparently, they were like him and came to pay homage to the city lord.
The Dao League implements the fairy city system. Each fairy city will appoint a fairy city lord.
The city lord is responsible for many affairs in the fairy city and belongs to the top-level level.
Of course, Zhou Ling is now the head of the Tiangong Division, and his rank is only half a level lower than the Lord of Immortal City.
The purpose of coming to the City Lord's Mansion this time is to exchange for spiritual land.
The first is to expand the family spiritual land.
After all, with the expansion of the workshop, the land of more than ten acres is no longer enough.
Secondly, he promised his master to establish Lingxiao Sect, and he was ready to proceed.
Of course, establishing a sect is not that easy. Connections, strength, and resources are all indispensable.
Fortunately, he is not in a hurry. He will take down the spiritual land first and plan the rest later.
Qingyun Fairy City is the core fairy city in the west of Qingyang Fairy Domain.
As long as the Zhou family can gain a foothold here, there is no need to worry about not having a chance to take off in the future.
Coupled with his current reputation in the Tiangong Division and the Taoist Academy, as long as he spends more time, he can lay a good foundation for the family.
Originally, he didn't have many plans for this, but after this beast wave.
He also realized that his strength was still insufficient.
We still need to speed up the improvement.
“When Zhou Zhizheng came, I greeted him at a loss.”
At this time, Zhou Ling saw a burly, rosy-faced middle-aged man walking over in the lobby.
It is the Lord Weng of Qingyun Fairy City.
At the last Zhou family celebration, although City Master Weng did not go there in person, he still sent people to send congratulatory gifts.
From the aura emanating from his body, Zhou Ling could tell with the help of [Intermediate Observation] that he was a late-stage Nascent Soul.
“City Lord, please don’t blame me for coming here.”
Zhou Ling stood up and bowed his hands, smiling.
The other monks around who were queuing up to see Lord Weng also stood up and bowed to him.
They all couldn't help but look curious about Zhou Ling.
It’s just a matter of building a foundation, why should City Lord Weng come out to greet him in person?
They all have to wait patiently for the city lord’s summons.
"Haha, Zhou Zhi is here, the flowers are shining brightly, please come inside."
City Lord Weng laughed.
Although Zhou Ling was ranked behind everyone, he had no scruples and invited Zhou Ling into the lobby.
With Zhou Ling’s identity, he naturally had to meet him first.
After all, he is the head of the Tiangong Department.
"It turns out to be Tiangong Si Zhou Zhizheng!"
"No wonder City Lord Weng personally greeted him!"
"Being a Zhizheng with foundation-building cultivation is considered unique in the Dao League!"
Soon, people also knew Zhou Ling’s identity.
There is no doubt about City Lord Weng’s unusual reception.
Zhou Ling followed City Master Weng to a gorgeous hall. City Master Weng personally made the spiritual tea to entertain Zhou Ling.
"Zhou Zhizheng, this is the Chunyun tea that was just picked in early spring this year. How do you like it?"
With a gentle wave of his hand, an antique tea cup fell in front of Zhou Ling, City Lord Weng said with a faint smile.
“The fourth-order Chunyun tea is really good!”
Zhou Ling picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"This year's Chunyun tea is of good quality, but the output is a little smaller!"
After taking a sip of the spirit tea, City Master Weng said with a smile.
He is also very satisfied with Zhou Ling's humble attitude. It is really rare to have such cultivation and achievements at such a young age without any arrogance.
After a few brief greetings, Zhou Ling said straight to the point, "City Lord, I am here this time. I plan to exchange for some spiritual land."
"What grade of spiritual land does Zhou Zhizheng want? I don’t know what location you want?”
City Lord Weng said slowly, as if he had foreseen it.
As the city lord, he is naturally well-informed.
Zhou Ling took everyone to support Anyang Fairy City, and this matter was also conveyed through him.
So he also knew the battle situation in Anyue County very well.
As the official of the Tiangong Division, Zhou Ling actually killed two fourth-level monsters in the battle against the monsters this time, and won the first place in military merit.
Even with his late Nascent Soul cultivation, he might not be able to kill two fourth-level monsters.
With such a level of cultivation and such a great record, Zhou Ling is destined to attract the attention of the Dao League’s top brass.
When he heard the news, he was a little unbelievable.
But this is indeed a battle report from the Dao League. This is information within the Dao League. Only the Lord of Immortal City and a few other high-level officials have received it.
So it is impossible to cheat.
Therefore, it can be foreseen that Zhou Ling's achievements will definitely be high in the future.
When he heard that Zhou Ling was coming, he went to greet him personally.
Express goodwill.
"I would like to exchange for the spiritual land around the Zhou family. Is that possible?"
Zhou Ling asked aloud.
"The spiritual place around the Zhou family?"
"Let me check it first!"
City Lord Weng smiled and said, then with a thought, a jade plaque appeared in his hand, and he tapped it lightly with his finger. , spiritual energy is injected into it.
Soon a faint white light flashed, and a map appeared in front of him.
There are various color markers on the map.
"There are more than one hundred acres of third-level spiritual land near your Zhou family. These were originally reserved for Xuanyuan Taoist Temple."
"If you want to buy it, I can give it to you!"
City Lord Weng pointed at the area where the Zhou family was located and nodded.
“Thank you, City Lord!”
Zhou Ling glanced at the map and thanked him.
Then he asked aloud, "I wonder how many third-level spiritual lands I can exchange for my four thousand military merits now?"
Although he has five thousand military merits in his hand, he plans to keep one thousand military merits first, after all, he has to exchange for them. some precious resources.
Like the Jade Ring Golden Pill, the fourth-order magic circle, etc.
You can’t use it all at once.
“With your righteous status and your great achievements this time, four thousand military merits can be exchanged for sixty acres of spiritual land, and there is also an additional reward of ten acres of spiritual land, for a total of seventy acres! ”
City Lord Weng said with a smile.
If it were anyone else, it would be impossible to obtain this spiritual land.
Even if he agreed, Xuanyuan Taoist Academy would not agree.
But Zhou Ling is a Taoist teacher, so there is no problem in this matter.
“Seventy acres.”
"Thank you City Lord!"
Zhou Ling cupped his hands and thanked him.
Seventy acres is completely enough.
Forty acres of land are reserved for Lingxiao Sect.
The remaining thirty acres belong to the family, which is more than enough.
"Okay, you can go to the affairs hall later and make the connection!"
City Lord Weng said again.
“Okay!”
Zhou Ling replied with a smile on his face.
After the matter in Lingdi is settled, other things will be easier to handle.
"Zhou Zhizheng, I have one more thing to ask of you!"
City Lord Weng thought for a moment and said.
"The city lord is very polite. If you have any questions, I am all ears!" Hearing this, Zhou Ling was stunned for a moment, then he held his hands and smiled.
“My youngest daughter, Weng Lanyue, is nine years old this year. She wants to become your teacher, but I don’t know if Zhizheng is willing to accept her!”
City Lord Weng said with a straight face.
If Zhou Ling continues to develop like this, he will have a bright future.
Of course, I want to have a good relationship with Zhou Ling.
Marriage and apprenticeship are undoubtedly the best choices.
In terms of marriage, there was no suitable candidate, so he chose to let his daughter become Zhou Ling's disciple.
"Apprenticeship?"
Zhou Ling did not expect this to happen.
Immediately asked, "I wonder what techniques your daughter wants to practice?"
He is now in two Taoist academies and teaches hundreds of disciples, but the real ones under his name There are only three disciples.
After all, accepting a disciple is not a simple ritual, but an extremely sacred thing.
After you accept a disciple, you must be responsible for teaching him well.
And now he has many things to do, but he doesn’t have so much time to teach his disciples.
So it’s natural to ask clearly.
“My little girl has top-grade gold and fire spiritual roots. Her talent is pretty good, but it’s just not in line with the techniques I practice!”
“So, I want to worship her as your lord. Let’s see if we can practice the art of weapon refining!”
City Lord Weng smiled and said!
With his connections and his daughter’s talent, he has no worries at all.
Originally, he planned to let his daughter enter Jiutian Sword Academy in the future, and then become a disciple of the dean of the palace.
But my daughter has not been interested in swordsmanship since she was a child. Instead, she likes to make alchemy and weapon refining.
So, he simply let her join Zhou Ling's sect.
"The best spiritual roots of gold and fire!"
Hearing this, Zhou Ling was also a little surprised.
Such a talent is absolutely top-notch in Qingyun Fairy City.
Since his talent is so outstanding and City Lord Weng spoke out like this, he naturally couldn't refuse. He immediately nodded and said, "City Lord Weng, please let Ling Qianjin go to the Zhou family later. Let me see if she is suitable for me. The technique of this lineage? "
Although the talent is good, we still need to understand whether it is suitable.
"Okay, I've done my job!"
City Lord Weng smiled and nodded.
With this opportunity, the relationship between the two became familiar.
City Lord Weng also ordered people to complete the procedures for Zhou Ling to exchange for spiritual land.
And gave Zhou Ling two kilograms of Chunyun tea.
This Chunyun Ling Tea has a great effect on the soul.
Zhou Ling also held up his hands and thanked him.
·······.
After returning to Zhou's house, Zhou Ling invited Deacon Luo over.
"Deacon Luo, this is the spiritual land I just obtained from the City Lord's Mansion. I have to work hard for you to set up the magic circle!"
Zhou Ling handed a jade slip to Deacon Luo and said with a smile.
This jade slip is the boundary of his current spiritual land.
He planned to ask Luo Zhi to lay out the boundary in advance, conduct some exploration, and then make plans.
“You’re welcome to be honest, this is my duty.”
Deacon Luo smiled slightly and took the jade slip.
Easy-going spiritual consciousness is injected into it.
After returning from Anyang Fairy City, his recognition of Zhou Ling also increased a bit.
Youn are young, but he is calm and steady, and his strength is even more surprising.
"Deacon Luo, I want to plan this area to the east as sect land."
"The area to the west will be reserved as family land."
< br>
"The main thing within the sect is the construction of the sword dojo. How do you plan it in detail?"
Zhou Ling said slowly.
Zhou Ling's words made Deacon Luo stunned. Looking at Zhou Ling, Deacon Luo asked with doubts, "Zhi Zheng is going to establish a sect?"
Establish a sect. It is no different than establishing a family, which requires the approval of many procedures of the Tao Alliance.
It’s not that easy.
And what the sect needs is the inheritance of skills.
Where did Zhou Ling go to inherit these skills?
At the same time, given Zhou Ling’s current situation, with the Taoist Academy teaching and the Tiangong Division in charge, what time would there be to run the sect?
So he was naturally suspicious.
“This is Master’s wish, and I will naturally fulfill it!”
Zhou Ling smiled.
Hearing this, Deacon Luo nodded. He had also encountered Zi Ling, and with his peak Golden Core cultivation level, he didn't understand the depth.
I know it must have an extraordinary origin.
Zhou Ling's achievements were probably inseparable from the teachings of this master.
As his consciousness withdrew from the jade slip, he had determined the area where Zhou Ling would exchange spiritual land this time.
Then, he moved his hand, and a formation disk appeared.
Following the telekinetic spell, eight black formation flags flew into the air, and then poured into the ground from different directions.
In a moment, within a few miles, a looming mask of light emerged, covering the Zhou family.
At the same time, streaks of light and shadow appeared on the array disk in Deacon Luo’s hand.
Through [Intermediate Observation], Zhou Ling knew that Deacon Luo was investigating the situation in the spiritual land.
These lights and shadows are topographic maps.
As for the specific situation, only the formation master can understand it.
He waited patiently.
After another stick of incense, Deacon Luo regained his composure with the array disk in his hand.
“Zhizheng, the western part of this area contains a stronger golden evil spirit, which is more suitable for establishing a sword dojo.”
"This area to the east is rich in fire evil spirit and can be used for workshops!"
Deacon Luo pointed to different areas in the spiritual land and introduced it to Zhou Ling.
"Okay."
"Then please ask Deacon Luo to make some plans."
Zhou Ling nodded.
"Forty acres of spiritual land are used as sect land, of which ten acres are used as sword dojo, which is more than enough!"
"The other twenty acres are used to build sect buildings, such as the meeting hall, the Sutra Pavilion, and the affairs hall. Wait!”
“The remaining ten acres will be reserved for subsequent development!”
Deacon Luo briefly explained his views to Zhou Ling.
“Give me the plan and I’ll ask the master about it!”
Zhou Ling nodded and said.
Although the master has let him make the decision, he still has to let the master know about this kind of thing.
Deacon Luo nodded, and immediately injected his spiritual consciousness into the jade slip and began to draw a plan.
·······.
At noon, Zhou Ling came to the master's courtyard and handed the sect's plan planned by Deacon Luo to his master for review.
"You can make the decision on this kind of thing. I have no objection!"
Zi Ling did not look at the jade slips and let Zhou Ling make his own decision.
"The key to the future of the sect is the sword dojo. As long as there are no problems with the sword dojo, the rest will not have any impact!"
Zi Ling warned again.
“Yes, Master!”
"In terms of the sword dojo, do I want to integrate the third-order Five Elements Sword Stone and the Thunder Gang Sword Stone first?"
"As for the disciple's early training, it can be combined with the puppet training!"
Zhou Ling asked.
These are all he currently has.
Hearing this, Zi Ling nodded and said, "From now on, Lingxiao Sect will use the Five Elements Sword Art as the inherited sword technique."
"As for the skills, you don't have to worry, I have a lot in my hands as a master."
"However, our Lingxiao Sect has always been strict in accepting disciples, and we would rather lack them than overwhelm them, so you must keep them in check!"
>"Yes, Master!"
Zhou Ling replied respectfully.
