Chapter 231 - 125: Pledging allegiance to Green Cloud Peak, Foundation Establishment within the Inner Sect (Seeking monthly tickets for 8k combined chapters)_5
However, at this time Jin Quanxiu did not bring him back to the Green Cloud Peak, but continued to take him to the other four buildings nearby.
The layout of the Five Star Pendant consists of five stars. Apart from the Internal Affairs Office just mentioned, there is also the Scripture Repository, the Discipline Hall, the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, and the Guest Hall.
The Scripture Repository is very different from the Scripture Repository of Danyang Outer Peak. This is the real passage for the cultivation techniques of the Dan Ding Sect, and the foundation of their cultivation.
Now that Liang Sheng has become an inner sect disciple, he has the qualifications to enter. However, he can only go to the first floor of the Scripture Repository for now, and it is only when he reaches the Jin Dan Stage that he can ascend to the second floor.
But as a new inner sect disciple, if he wants to read and copy the Cultivation Law Essentials, he has to put in effort, namely, to complete sect tasks and earn corresponding points. The Cultivation Law Essentials in the Scripture Repository all have clear prices attached.
As for the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, it’s relatively complex compared to the Internal Affairs Office. The Internal Affairs Office is responsible for handling various internal affairs of the sect, but the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and the Internal Affairs Office share a common place, which is where personal tasks are issued from the Sect or the Inner Sect Disciples.
In addition to this, the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall also has an exchange function, including refining weapons, talisman drawing, array manipulation, and even spiritual pills. As long as you have spirit stones, or what the other party needs, you can exchange for them.
Hence, it is called the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, responsible for various miscellaneous matters within the sect, differentiated from the Internal Affairs Office, each carrying out its own functions.
The Discipline Hall needs no more explanation, it is where order within the sect is upheld, but this institution’s power is firmly held in the hand of the Sect Master of Dan Ding Sect.
As for the Guest Hall, it is where the Dan Ding Sect interacts with the outside world. The previous exchanges between the Three Sects and Six Orders were all carried out by the Guest Hall.
As for the highest building in the center of the Five Star Pendant, it was the leader’s pavilion of the Dan Ding Sect. This time, he did not let him in, and Jin Quanxiu didn’t explain further, only taking Liang Sheng around to familiarize himself with the layout of the Five Star Pendant before leaving directly with him.
Of course, today he brought Liang Sheng here just to familiarize himself a bit with the arrangements, and he could come by himself afterwards to carefully explore the various internal affairs agencies in detail.
Just then, Liang Sheng felt a vibration from the identity jade plate at his waist. When he picked it up to look, he saw a broadcast message.
“New inner sect disciple of Green Cloud Peak, Yang Cheng, is 83 years old, and has become a disciple of Green Cloud Peak Master Jin Quanxiu. We wish him success on the Immortal Path.”
After reading it, he looked up at Jin Quanxiu, who was not surprised and nodded.
This was the way the Internal Affairs Office notified everyone in the inner sect and above to notify everyone of Yang Cheng’s news about becoming a Foundation Establishment Inner Sect Disciple.
At this moment, Liang Sheng was feeling a bit excited. Indeed, as an inner sect disciple, he was already central pillar of a sect, otherwise why would the Dan Ding Sect make such a big fuss?
Jin Quanxiu looked at Liang Sheng and finally saw the reaction of a “young man”. He couldn’t help but let out a big laugh, “Disciple, let’s go, we’re going home.”
By the time Liang Sheng returned to the Green Cloud Peak with Jin Quanxiu, there were already more than a dozen shadowy figures quietly waiting outside Jin Quanxiu’s Cave Mansion. Among them were Chen Xiang and Xiao Qin, who Liang Sheng was familiar with.
When they saw Jin Quanxiu and Yang Cheng, they hurriedly paid their respects to Jin Quanxiu. Jin Quanxiu didn’t say a word, but just nodded and walked straight into the Cave Mansion.
As soon as he left, the atmosphere became a bit more relaxed. At this moment, the manager of the Outer Sect, Chen Xiang, looked at Liang Sheng with a sigh in his eyes.
Who could have imagined that Yang Cheng, in a few short decades, would become the third disciple of the Peak Master? Although he had high hopes for him, he didn’t expect him to progress this quickly.
Xiao Qin and the others also sighed. They didn’t expect that their selfish act back then would be repaid so quickly, after all, they owed a great favor to Yang Cheng back then.
However, the first one to greet Liang Sheng was not Chen Xiang or Xiao Qin, but a middle-aged man in inner sect disciple’s clothing, with messy hair, who seemed extremely carefree.
He walked over with a smile, patted Liang Sheng’s shoulder, and Liang Sheng forced himself to endure the discomfort and did not dodge, the man’s attitude was very good.
“As expected from my junior brother, you’re distinguished indeed.”
Upon hearing this, Liang Sheng was overjoyed and quickly addressed him as senior brother, because this man was no other than Jin Quanxiu’s second disciple, Shen Wuque, who was already in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment.
When Liang Sheng was selected as an alchemy child, Shen Wuque was in closed-door cultivation to break through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, so they had never met before. Today was their first meeting.
Afterwards, Liang Sheng naturally performed the salutations one by one, and Xiang Chen introduced each one. Liang Sheng also had the opportunity to meet all the Foundation Establishment Disciples of Green Cloud Peak.
When they finished greeting each other, Jin Quanxiu’s voice slowly came out from the Cave Mansion, “Alright, everyone can come in now.”
As soon as they heard this, they immediately stopped their small talk, followed Jin Quanxiu into the Cave Mansion and quickly entered.
At this point in the Cave Mansion, a banquet area had already been set up. The table was full of Immortal fruit, delicacies, and fine wines.
Jin Quanxiu opened his mouth and formally introduced Yang Cheng. Chen Xiang and others, after hearing Jin Quanxiu admit it personally, couldn’t help but feel a some envy in their hearts.
They were only inner sect disciples of Green Cloud Peak, not direct disciples of Jin Quanxiu, so the levels of intimacy were naturally different.
At this time, Jin Quanxiu took out a jade slip and handed it to Liang Sheng. “Yang Cheng, this is your Cave Mansion Jade Token, the location of the Cave Mansion is on this token.”
“Of course, you can come to the Cave Mansion to find me at any time. If I’m not there, and you have any questions, you can also find your senior brothers.”
Hearing this, Xiang Chen and Shen Wuque both nodded at Liang Sheng at the same time, their faces full of smiles and their attitudes extremely good.
Liang Sheng quickly took the Cave Mansion Jade Token and thanked Jin Quanxiu. What happened after that is needless to say, as it was quite an exuberant celebration.
The other disciples of the Main Peaks who had tried to recruit Liang Sheng were a little regretful. They hadn’t been proactive enough before, which resulted in the Green Cloud Peak gaining another significant asset.
Those with complicated feelings that night included many people. They were none other than Chen Ming and the others, who also had backgrounds as alchemy children from the Green Cloud Peak.
At this time, Chen Ming had confirmed that the person he saw looked familiar today was not an illusion, but that Liang Sheng actually was Yang Cheng.
Chen Ming felt extremely bitter. Yang Cheng, who was inferior to him back in the day, had already achieved Foundation Establishment success and entered Jin Quanxiu’s tutelage.
But he was still stuck in the Qi Cultivation Seventh Level, the gap between the two was simply too great. Was it fate playing tricks, could his choice have been wrong after all?
He had no answer in his heart, but he had already gained a clear understanding.
He is far inferior to Yang Cheng!
