The main hall.

All the monks at the elder level are now gathered here.

When they meet each other, they all nod their heads as a greeting.

For Tianzong, many elders do not have much interaction with each other. Each has its own small circle. Except for other monks outside the small circle, it is difficult to integrate into it.

"Master of the Zhan Temple, the sect leader summoned us to come here this time, but what's the matter?"

Yutian asked in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Zhan Sheng shook his head slightly: "Like the Master of Yutian Palace, I just received a summons from the sect master, and there is not much news."

See this.

Yutian could only suppress his inner curiosity.

Although he is a sixth-grade Taoist soldier, he is the weakest among Shen Changqing's many Taoist soldiers.

Not to mention the immortal holy soldier Qing Yi who always follows Shen Changqing, even with the twelfth-grade old man Wandao, there is no comparison.

but.

In Yutian's view.

Although Zhan Sheng is not the strongest among the Tao soldiers, he is the one who has been with Shen Changqing for the longest time.

In the words of other monks, he can be regarded as a confidant.

some things.

If you don't know something yourself, it doesn't mean the other person doesn't know it.

originally.

Yutian still wanted to get some rumors from the other party's mouth, but now it seems that there is no possibility.

Then, his eyes fell on the other palace masters.

Tianzong Palace.

The positions of all palace masters are basically controlled by Tao soldiers.

There are only a few places that have not been affected by Taoist soldiers.

For example, Dan Palace.

“I don’t know when I will be truly promoted to the seventh rank!”

Yu Tian sighed secretly.

It is not easy for Tao soldiers to be promoted. If you want to be truly promoted, you can only be promoted unless you can get the nourishment of the flesh and blood of a strong person, or if a strong person uses his own strength to nourish you.

Except.

It is to obtain a treasure like an innate spiritual embryo.

It's a pity.

Regardless of the possibility, it is not that simple to really want to be promoted.

In the past, Yu Tian had a Buddhist attitude towards promotion to the seventh rank. If he could be promoted, he would be promoted. If he couldn't be promoted, that would be fine.

But it's different now.

Following Shen Changqing, he saw too many top and powerful Taoist soldiers.

Comparing the two, he appears to be too weak.

If there really is an opportunity for promotion, Yu Tian would not want to miss it.

It's a pity that there are no opportunities for promotion at the moment.

When he was secretly thinking wildly, Shen Changqing's figure suddenly appeared on the empty main seat.

See this.

Many elders stood up and saluted.

"I'll wait to see the sect leader."

"Excuse me."

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

Only then did the elders take their seats again.

Shen Changqing was in the main position and had a clear view of the expressions of all the elders present.

Nowadays, there are not many monks in the Tianzong who are elders and above. Apart from the Taoist monks who have transformed into the hall master, the rest are a group of monks selected from the Tianshun clan to serve as the elders.

As for the disciples of the sect, none of them have been promoted now.

This is also normal.

The disciples who joined Tianzong at the beginning were not very strong, and most of them were at the level of sainthood, and had not even reached the level of sainthood.

The strongest one can only reach the realm of gods.

With such strength, it is impossible to grow to the level of an elder in just a few years.

Moreover.

If you want to become a sect elder, you must not only have corresponding strength, but also make a significant contribution to the sect.

If one of the two fails to meet the standards, it is impossible to become an elder of the sect.

After all, once you become an elder, you are equivalent to becoming a senior member of Tianzong. Every word and deed may have a great impact on the sect. If you really want to promote them arbitrarily, then Tianzong will not be far away from being destroyed.

the other side.

Under the gaze of Shen Changqing, the monks present were all calm and calm, which put great pressure on them.

"Since the founding of Tianzong, I have rarely had time to take care of it. The reason why the sect is in such good shape is entirely due to your efforts."

Calm words rang out in the hall, and everyone looked solemn.

The scene is finished.

Shen Changqing looked at Pu Zong who was standing down: "Elder Pu, how many races are affiliated with Tian Zong now?"

"To inform the sect master, there are currently fifty-three races belonging to the sect, and they are all weak races without the control of the gods."

Puzong answered without thinking.

Hear the words.

Shen Changqing nodded imperceptibly.

Fifty-three races.

Judging from the quantity, it seems to be quite a lot.

But he understands.

The fifty-three races are all weak races, and there is no possibility of them being comparable to the strong races in terms of their heritage. Even if ten or twenty weak races are added together, they may not be able to compare with a strong race that has a divine realm.

It can be seen from this.

How weak are the weak races?

"Fifty-three tribes, how many creatures are there in total?"

"The total number of living creatures from the fifty-three tribes is roughly around 500 billion."

"Five hundred billion..."

Shen Changqing looked indifferent.

Five hundred billion living beings is definitely not a large number.

On average, there are less than 10 billion living beings in one race.

Later.

Shen Changqing asked: "Of the 500 billion living beings, how many living beings' beliefs are completely subordinate to Tianzong and can be redeemed by sect disciples?"

"With 500 billion living beings, there are probably around 100 billion living beings that can be redeemed by the sect."

Puzong replied truthfully.

Although Tianzong has captured 500 billion living beings, it is impossible for all living beings' beliefs to be used by the sect's disciples. Most of the living beings' beliefs must belong to the sect leader in front of him.

It’s already good to have hundreds of billions left.

Regarding this.

Shen Changqing also understood very well.

Although the faith of 400 billion living beings does not have much effect on him, after all, his real major is not Shinto, but Immortal Dao.

No matter how much faith he has in creatures, it will hardly make any big difference to his strength.
