Chapter 26 Thick Soil(1/2)
The status of the Grand Master is transcendent.
The Feihua Sword Sect does not make any mistakes and does not let Song Feiqiong distract him. Not only does he help the court, but he can also gain Song Feiqiong's goodwill.
He thought about the situation.
The two elders who were moved by his words were the ones who were moved. The other elder and Lu Wan had no emotional fluctuations.
Although the city is deep, more importantly, they also saw the problem.
But at this time, if you want to change the mentality of the entire sect and stop the disciples who can't wait to join the imperial court, you are the enemy of the entire Feihua Sword sect disciples.
But if it cannot be reversed, the Feihua Sword Sect will suffer.
Behind the bustle and bustle of Yujing is cruel competition. Those criminal martial arts masters don't care whether the Flying Flower Sword Sect has a great master.
Behind every master in Zhenwu Division there is a great master.
If a disciple of the Feihua Sword Sect enters the Zhenwu Division, he or she will be a weakling and will lose a lot of money.
Chu Zhiyuan put aside these utilitarian thoughts and asked: "Master Gao, is Houtu Sect under the control of our Zongwu Division?"
"It is under the control of our Zongwu Division," Gao Lingfeng's face darkened and he sneered: "These sects are very arrogant because of their large number of followers."
"What other sects are there?"
"We have eighteen major sects in Yujing, one of which is Houtu Sect, Chengxin Sect, Xuansi Sect, Yuanguang Sect, Zhenyi Sect, Tianqin Sect, etc., not to mention the Wuyou Sect that stretches across the vast landscape. Even if I talk to the Ji Le Sect, I’m not that convinced by the imperial court.”
"Have any resentment against the imperial court?"
"I think they have it."
"Why?"
"Humph, they don't want the court to interfere, and they don't want the court to be so lenient... Hey, how is this possible! If the court ignores them, they can turn our great scenery into a pot of porridge!"
"It is inevitable to want more power." Chu Zhiyuan nodded lightly.
Expansion is the fundamental attribute of sects and organizations, and they like disorderly expansion the most.
"I think the imperial government is too lax and indulges them too much!" Gao Lingfeng sneered: "If this continues, it will definitely be too big!"
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.
It is true that the court's strict control saves trouble, but it is not conducive to the prosperity of the world.
The best way is to tie the top sects into one boat, and this is the case for the four major sects.
Of course, the power of the imperial court must be ensured at all times, and no one can shake the imperial court with its four caves and four secret lands.
Only with this confidence could the emperor be so tolerant.
"How strong is the Feihua Sword Sect?" Chu Zhiyuan asked, "How many masters and innates does it have?"
"According to the investigation by my subordinates, there are three grand masters, the leader, Elder Lu, and a Supreme Elder. They have thirteen innate talents. Among them, one is a genius, and the rest are mediocre and cannot be cultivated."
The Feihua Sword Sect has good luck. There are always geniuses in every generation. The previous generation was the current leader and Song Feiqiong, the previous generation was Lu Wan, and Lu Wan is the next leader. This generation also has a genius. This can It is guaranteed that Feihua Sword Sect will not completely decline.
Of course, if the Feihua Sword Sect was unlucky, it would not have Song Feiqiong as its great master. It was really good luck.
"Too bad..." Chu Zhiyuan muttered.
Gao Lingfeng said: "My subordinates feel that even with Tianbaosi's elixir, they cannot become a master."
It is difficult to become a master. Talent alone is not enough. You also need to have enough understanding. Otherwise, it will be useless no matter how hard you practice.
There are many grandmasters in Yujing, which brings together 80% to 90% of the grandmasters of the entire Great Jing Dynasty.
Anyone who wants to become a Grandmaster will almost come to Yujing.
Those masters who are not in Yujing either have an indifferent nature and know that there is no hope, or they have completely despaired and left Yujing.
Gao Lingfeng continued: "If the Flying Flower Sword Sect wants to rise, it can only wait for the next generation to recruit more talents. But if it wants to catch up with the four major sects, my subordinates feel that it may never be possible."
The strength of the four major sects is not only due to the genius of their disciples, but also because of their own powerful skills, which are rare in the world.
This is not the case with the Feihua Sword Sect.
Throughout the ages, only Song Feiqiong has become the Grand Master of the Feihua Sword Sect. It is obviously due to Song Feiqiong's unique encounters, rather than the strong mental skills of the Feihua Sword Sect.
Everyone in Yujing's martial arts world is smarter than a monkey. They must have seen this clearly, so they didn't move forward.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said with a smile: "You underestimate the Grand Master too much."
He has read the Grand Master's martial arts notes and knows how profound and profound the Grand Master is. After Song Feiqiong becomes the Grand Master, if he is determined, Feihua Sword Sect's martial arts can leap to the top level.
"By the way, when you get back, give me a copy of the Houtu Sect's files, as well as the Feihua Sword Sect's files."
"yes."
——
Zongwu Division of the Ministry of Rites
As a foreign minister, Chu Zhiyuan had a separate room.
The bright sunshine in the morning shines through the window on a red lacquered and carved table, and on the two piles of files on the table.
One pile contains the files of Feihua Sword Sect and Houtu Sect.
Chu Zhiyuan wore a scarlet robe, picked it up and read through it.
Zongwusi's duty is to coordinate Yin and Yang and maintain the stability of the martial arts world.
If there is turmoil and chaos in the martial arts world, it is the fault of Zongwusi. If the turmoil can be calmed down, it will be a special merit. The grade will be assessed based on the merit, usually ninth grade or above.
If the Zhenwu Si is a sword that subdues demons and acts as the black face, then the Zongwu Si acts as the red face.
The two divisions work together to maintain the stability of the martial arts world.
The Zhenwu Division is not affiliated with the Ministry of Rites and is directly responsible to the emperor, while the Zongwu Division is affiliated with the Ministry of Rites, so its power is naturally much weakened.
Chu Zhiyuan felt that this also contained wonderful ideas.
The Zhenwu Division uses force to defeat demons, while the Zongwu Division suppresses people with power. The two are not subordinate to each other and can minimize the resistance and hostility of the martial arts sects.
The intelligence collected by Zhenwu Division will be transferred here.
The duty of Zongwusi is to use this information to analyze the dynamics and trends of various martial arts sects, and make timely adjustments to avoid turmoil.
Chu Zhiyuan looked through these files and shook his head.
Houtu Sect is a newly established sect after the founding of the Jing Dynasty. Over the past thousand years, it has become more and more prosperous and has now grown to a thousand members.
These more than a thousand people are believers, not including those who are believers.
The main teaching forum of Houtu Sect is not in Yujing, but there is a Houtu Church in Yujing and branches in other places.
The teachings of Houtu Sect are that the earth is the mother of all things and the final destination of human beings. If a person can be integrated with the earth, he can turn into rocks, trees, mountains and rivers after death, and he will not have to be reincarnated as a human being to suffer the sufferings of the world.
.
Houtu Cult worships the Earth God, and through penance, one can establish a connection with the earth through the Earth God and gain strength from the earth.
As a member of the Earth Cult, you can bear all kinds of pain in the world. All pain is soil, making you thicker and closer to the earth.
While looking through the files, Chu Zhiyuan recalled the situation of the high-gong elder Zhu Yishan at that time.
It's a pity that I didn't touch Zhu Yishan at that time and couldn't grasp his mentality.
He was very curious about how the Houtu Cult could mobilize the power of the earth, and it might be of great benefit to his Earth Element Art.
After reading two piles of files, he left the Yamen and went to Tongtian Pavilion.
——
The night is like water.
Chu Zhiyuan sat quietly on the bed, his plain white robe slowly falling down from its bulging state.
Only nine floors of the twelve-layered jade tower are left. If the third layer is destroyed, it will reach the realm of the innate fourth-layer tower.
Every time a building is broken, the true energy becomes deeper and purer.
His eyebrows were furrowed and he showed no joy.
The Jade Lock Golden Pass Technique is powerful, and coupled with the support of the Earth Element Technique, the attack on the Jade Tower is as fast as a broken bamboo, and it is really a thousand miles away.
This speed of entry is enough to crush the wizards of the world.
But his level was still too low, and the fourth level of Xiantian Tower was still too weak. Only when he reached the master level could he protect himself. He wished he could step into the master position.
Unfortunately, this is a luxury.
More importantly, he discovered a problem.
The true qi becomes deep and pure, but the strengthening of the meridians cannot keep up with the speed of the strengthening of the true qi, causing the meridians to bear increasing pressure.
It was originally able to condense twelve dragon-binding ropes, but now it is unbearable to condense ten.
The further back the Jade Tower is, the stronger it becomes and is more difficult to break.
The first two layers of jade towers were broken in one blow, while the third layer of jade towers took more than a dozen hits to break open.
In the final analysis, it is the meridians that are blocking the entry speed.
To be continued...
