Chapter 199 Going to the Qiaoshoumen
After the initiation ceremony, Meng Zhang did not go out, but stayed in the mountain gate to practice.
Besides practicing, he also took time to guide Niu Dawei's practice.
Although Meng Zhang has never practiced "Wind and Thunder True Interpretation", there is no one else in the sect who practices this technique.
However, as a monk in the foundation-building stage, he still has the ability to draw parallels from a high position.
Meng Zhang also carefully considered various key points in "The True Interpretation of Wind and Thunder".
Niu Dawei's own qualifications are very good, and with Meng Zhang's careful guidance, Niu Dawei's cultivation has improved rapidly.
In addition, half of the secret treasures that Houtu God knocked from Shanhu in Shuangfeng Valley have already been transported back to Taiyi Gate.
Most of the cultivation materials and spiritual stones were sent to the central warehouse. The books and jade slips were sorted by General Houtu and sent to the Sutra Collection Pavilion.
The current Taiyimen Sutra Collection Pavilion finally looks a bit like a Sutra Collection Pavilion. It is no longer a small study room, but a separate three-story pavilion covering a large area. It can barely be called a famous library.
Realistic counterpart.
Outside the pavilion, there is a special protective barrier, and there are disciples responsible for guarding it.
In the pavilion, each room is engraved with forbidden runes, which are used to prevent fire and moth.
The Sutra Pavilion is not just an empty shelf with an empty appearance. It contains a large collection of books, many of which are precious classics.
Except for the first floor, which is open to sect disciples for free, the books on the other two floors require disciples to consume sect contribution points before they can borrow them.
In the past two years, Houtu Divine General has also fulfilled his responsibilities as the master of the hall.
In addition to regularly holding Dharma meetings in the door and giving lectures, he also spent a lot of time in the Sutra Pavilion.
In addition to organizing the Sutra Pavilion, he also gave guidance to the disciples who came to seek advice.
Shuangfeng Valley is worthy of being the overlord that has been inherited for hundreds of years and can dominate an area.
There are many valuable parts in the classics brought back by Houtu God. Meng Zhang gained a lot after reading them.
The Buddhist Scripture Pavilion in Taiyi Gate has also received useful additions.
Meng Zhang stayed in the sect for less than three months when he received an invitation from someone from the Qiaoshou sect.
Jin Qigu, the head of the Qiaoshou Sect, spent some time stabilizing her cultivation after successfully building the foundation some time ago.
The Qiaoshou Sect is scheduled to hold a foundation-building ceremony for her next month. The monks who have made good friends with the sect are specially invited to attend.
At the same time, people from the Qiaoshou sect also said that Aunt Jin had something important to discuss with Meng Zhang.
Although trade routes are now cut off and various items are in short supply, Meng Zhang still ordered his disciples to carefully prepare a generous gift.
When the time for the Dharma Assembly was about to come, Meng Zhang selected a few disciples, boarded a first-order flying boat, and rushed to the mountain gate of Qiaoshou Gate.
The mountain gate of Qiaoshou Gate is located about a thousand miles west of Taiyi Gate, almost close to the edge of the Death Sand Sea.
The endless sand sea continues to the north, which is the legendary death sand sea.
Although the Endless Sand Sea is desolate and remote, it is very unsuitable for human survival. However, the large number of oases above it still breed many humans.
Especially in the areas directly ruled by the Feihong Sect, the population has multiplied and is somewhat prosperous.
But the Death Sand Sea to the north of the Endless Sand Sea is the real restricted area of life.
Not only can no living beings survive there, but even foreign monks find it difficult to gain a foothold here.
In the Death Sand Sea, not only is the living environment extremely harsh, but there are also many dangers that can endanger the lives of cultivators.
Ordinary cultivators in the foundation-building stage would only dare to approach the edge of the Death Sand Sea at most, but would never dare to go deep.
There are many strange and diverse legends about the Death Sand Sea.
Some people say that the Death Sand Sea is the base camp of demonic monks, some say that the Death Sand Sea is the hiding place of ghost monks, and some even say that the Death Sand Sea is the source of the birth of sand monsters...
Anyway, no one can verify these legends.
Even the Feihong Sect, the overlord of the Endless Sand Sea, keeps a respectful distance from the Death Sand Sea and does not dare to approach it easily.
Occasionally, however, some brave monks venture into the Death Sand Sea in an attempt to find so-called opportunities.
Almost most of these brave monks died in it. The few who were lucky enough to survive were vague about the various conditions inside.
As time goes on, fewer and fewer monks dare to go deep into the sandy sea of death.
Even if it is absolutely necessary, the most you can do is wander around the outside of the Death Sand Sea and never dare to go inside.
Qiaoshoumen Mountain Gate is located not far from the edge of the Death Sand Sea, not too far from the Death Sand Sea.
Over the years, there has been nothing unusual about the Qiaoshou Sect.
Meng Zhang and others took a first-order flying boat and arrived at the Qiaoshou Gate Mountain Gate safely.
Qiaoshoumen Mountain Gate is composed of a continuous hillside. On the hillside, dense mulberry trees are planted. It looks lush and lovely.
On the periphery of the endless hillsides, there are large oasis areas, where the mortals under the rule of the Qiaoshou Sect live.
The disciples of the Qiaoshou Sect are mainly female, but there are also a large number of men. However, male disciples have a lower status in the sect and their prospects are limited, and they are basically unable to enter the upper echelons of the sect.
Most of the reasons for this are because the Qiaoshou Sect's most advanced inherited skills can only be practiced by women. Men only practice low-end street stuff.
In particular, the Qiaoshoumen's unique skills of raising spiritual silkworms, extracting silk, weaving silk, and making cassocks and robes are all in the hands of female monks.
Seeing the Taiyi Gate logo on the flying boat, the Qiaoshou Gate's mountain guard formation automatically opened, revealing a portal.
Soon after Feizhou entered, there was a female disciple from the Qiaoshou Sect, riding a crane, guiding the Feizhou to land at the designated location.
Not long after the flying boat landed, a female disciple from the Qiaoshou Sect came to receive her.
Meng Zhang came to Qiaoshoumen this time and brought several disciples with him.
This is not to show off, but simply to let these disciples see the world and get in touch with outstanding disciples from other sects.
The female disciple from Qiaoshou Sect who was responsible for welcoming guests took the Taiyi Sect group to a courtyard to settle down.
Several nearby courtyards were occupied by guests from all walks of life who came to watch the ceremony.
Now in the area west of Mingshafang City, the four sects plus the Shi family formed a small group.
The sects in the outside world have no contact with them due to the blockade of Feihong Sect. Even if they had some relationships in the past, they have been completely severed long ago.
It was not too early to arrive from Taiyi Sect. Ruan Dadao from Jindao Sect and Gu Tanghai from Shi Family had already arrived here.
At the entrance of the courtyard, Meng Zhang saw Ruan Dadao talking with Gu Tanghai.
At the same time, each received two small foundation-building pills. Jin Qigu from the Qiaoshou sect succeeded in building the foundation, but Ruan Yuan from the Jindao sect failed to build the foundation. This is really unpredictable.
