Chapter 653 Departure
The master and apprentice had not seen each other for a long time, so they had a long conversation that lasted most of the night.
Meng Zhang was very satisfied with Niu Dawei's performance in all aspects and encouraged him a lot.
In addition, Meng Zhang also made some arrangements before leaving the sect.
Fang Hanyu, who is in retreat in the sect at this time, will come to Jiuqu City after he comes out of seclusion to take over Niu Dawei's position and serve as the elder of Taiyi Sect stationed in Jiuqu League.
Niu Dawei, on the other hand, returned to Taiyi Sect and, as the head disciple and acting head, was responsible for overall presiding over all affairs of the sect.
After Niu Dawei returns to Taiyimen, he still has to complete an important task assigned by Meng Zhang.
In the current world of cultivation, in many sects, high-level monks are reluctant to accept disciples. Only those who are particularly outstanding and outstanding in all aspects will be accepted into their sects.
The entire sect's method of cultivating disciples is somewhat similar to the university that Meng Zhang attended in his previous life. Disciples spontaneously choose the direction of their cultivation, the knowledge they need to learn, and take the initiative to attend the lectures given by their seniors...
As the leader of the sect, I would actually like to see this happen.
In a sect, the master-disciple relationship is a very solid one. The master-disciple relationship is passed down from generation to generation, and there are many disciples and disciples. It is easy to form groups and form interest groups and mountain tops. This is obviously not a good thing for the management of the sect. In some cases,
In extreme cases, it may even cause the sect to split.
Meng Zhang himself didn't think that much. In the past, he just didn't want to interfere with the high-level monks in the sect in this regard, leaving them to make their own decisions.
The Taiyi Sect lost many disciples in the last battle with the Hai Clan. Over the years, with the increase in new disciples, the quantity has been greatly compensated, but the quality is far less than before.
On the one hand, this lowered the threshold for recruiting disciples, leading to a decline in the quality of the disciples. On the other hand, Meng Zhang felt that the Taiyi Sect's system of cultivating disciples needed some improvements.
In the past, all new disciples who entered Taiyi Sect, regardless of their age or previous foundation, were thrown into the school opened by the sect and studied for several years to ten years.
In the school, they will learn basic exercises and the basic knowledge required for various cultivations. Some who are too young or illiterate need to learn writing from the beginning.
These disciples are outer disciples in name, but in fact they can only be regarded as apprentices.
By the time they completed their studies in the school and gained preliminary abilities, they had barely entered the realm of cultivation.
At this time, they need to be self-reliant and complete various sect tasks to obtain sect good deeds in exchange for various cultivation resources and techniques.
This set of procedures is followed by most sects in the world of cultivation, including the Taiyi Sect in its heyday and the major Yuanshen sects in the Jiuqu League. There is not much difference.
The improvement Meng Zhang wants to make is to allow the high-level monks in the sect to invest more time and energy in cultivating younger generations.
According to Meng Zhang's idea, from now on, all monks in the sect who are above the middle stage of Foundation Establishment must accept their disciples as disciples unless there are special circumstances.
Monks in the Foundation Establishment stage can take disciples in the Qi Refining stage as disciples, and monks in the Golden Core stage can take disciples in the Foundation Establishment stage as disciples...
Regardless of whether they are outer sect disciples or inner sect disciples, worshiping a master cannot change their identity and status. However, they can receive care from the master in all aspects and receive more guidance.
Of course, these high-level monks accept disciples, which is not only a mandatory requirement of the sect, but they can also obtain good deeds from the sect. The better the disciples they train, the greater the benefits they can get.
Meng Zhang gave this task to Niu Dawei, which was not only a test for him, but also allowed him to have in-depth contact with all the high-level monks in the sect, especially those Jindan masters, during the process of completing the task.
The mission's departure date is set for ten days, and Meng Zhang still has plenty of time.
During the time he stayed in Jiuqu City, in addition to communicating with Niu Dawei and giving guidance on his cultivation, he also wandered around and learned about Jiuqu City personally.
Before leaving, Meng Zhang went to visit Jin Li Zhenjun again.
Jin Li Zhenjun was busy with his affairs and did not chat with Meng Zhang for too long.
However, before leaving, she gave Meng Zhang two pseudo-fourth-level talismans for self-defense.
Jin Li Zhenjun is not a fourth-level talisman maker, and his talisman-making skills are even mediocre. Even with the cultivation level of the Yuan Shen stage, he cannot draw a true fourth-level talisman.
She had spent a lot of effort and precious materials to draw several pseudo-fourth-level talismans.
Although the pseudo-fourth-level talisman is of little use in battles at the level of the True Lord of Yuanshen, it can be of great use in the hands of Jindan monks. Not only can it threaten the Jindan-level monks, but it can also be used when facing the Yuanshen level.
When facing an enemy, he still has some strength to fight back.
True Lord Jin Li refined some such talismans, originally to give Jin Qiaoer self-defense.
I happened to have a few left on hand, and now Meng Zhang was going to travel far away, so I gave him two randomly, just in case.
Meng Zhang even has a real fourth-level talisman in his hand, but he has been unable to refine it and use it.
Later, after experiencing a life-and-death duel with Ying Gaofei, a strong man from the True Dragon Clan, in order to have a stronger trump card in his hand, he did not hesitate to spend his blood essence, damage his cultivation, and use blood to refine secret techniques, and initially refined the fourth-level talisman.
.If it is cast reluctantly, it is estimated that most of the power can be exerted.
Now, of course, he happily accepted the pseudo-fourth-level talisman given by True Lord Jin Li, and kept saying thank you.
No matter how much spiritual stones are spent on the artifacts refined by the True Lord of Yuanshen, they cannot be purchased if there are no connections.
True Lord Jin Li was so generous, which made Meng Zhang feel goodwill.
He saw that True Lord Jin Li was delaying his own cultivation because he was obsessed with power. He had originally intended to give a few words of warning, but then he thought about it, with his own cultivation and knowledge, what qualifications did he have to remind True Lord Jin Li. If he offended True Lord Jin Li instead, then
That's bad.
Thinking of this, Meng Zhang swallowed back everything he wanted to say.
When Meng Zhang came out from Zhenjun Jinli's place, Meng Zhang's mood was a little complicated.
In the past few years, because of the last battle with the Hai Clan, the senior officials of the Taiyi Sect have been quite critical of True Lord Jin Li, feeling that True Lord Jin Li is not reliable enough.
In fact, Jin Li Zhenjun is not a bad person, but she has a bad temper and is a bit moody and angry. In the world of cultivation where the jungle is strong and the strong eat each other, she is a rare and honest person.
She has protected Taiyi Sect for many years and has done the greatest service to Taiyi Sect. However, Taiyi Sect cannot rely on others forever, let alone tie the fate and future of the sect to her.
In the future, the two sides will definitely have new differences, and maybe they will drift apart.
