"I do!"

"I'd love to!"

The first to speak were Qin Shaoru and Green, among others. Their eyes were filled with fervor as they looked at Chu Mo as if he were a god.

Old Tang and Master Huang, master and disciple, also gave a firm reply.

The independent cultivators he invited had already made a general decision in their hearts before they came here.

Therefore, they all happily agreed.

Only the white-haired old man, who was at the upper level of the Qi Refining stage, looked hesitant.

After thinking for a while, he chuckled awkwardly:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, what you've said is truly astonishing. Could you please allow me to see the cultivation technique? If it is indeed true, I will join without hesitation."

Upon hearing this, before Chu Mo could reply, Master Huang responded with a displeased expression:

"Fellow Daoist Chen, I told you before we came that neither cultivation techniques nor Kunlun Immortal Wine can be given away casually; a certain assessment is required."

"Before you joined the Dragon Hidden Pavilion, it was impossible for me to let you see my sect's cultivation techniques. You don't even know this basic rule?"

The others nodded in agreement.

Cultivation techniques are the most important thing for a sect; how can one just look at them as one pleases?

They haven't even joined yet, and they're already asking to see other people's techniques without even asking? That's really...

Chu Mo sneered inwardly.

The reason I asked Master Huang to recruit them was simply to save time and get things started quickly.

It's not that we absolutely need them.

If it weren't for the consideration of leaving a lineage for the Xuantian Sect, he wouldn't even have had the idea of ​​establishing a sect.

With puppetry skills at your fingertips, you can have any subordinates you want. Why bother training them?

Now, I have top-notch cultivation techniques, the Five Elements Banner, and Kunlun Immortal Wine. Later on, I can also get some spirit stones back.

Its resources are arguably unparalleled globally.

In addition, with the testing array we got back from Chu Hanqing, what kind of genius seedlings couldn't we find?

The white-haired old man, feeling a little embarrassed by Master Huang's words, chuckled lightly:

"I only wish to see it in person and will not take it away. If the cultivation technique is genuine, I will definitely join you. Then we will be family. Why be so stingy, Fellow Daoist Chu?"

As a high-grade Qi Refining cultivator, he was always respected among rogue cultivators.

Even in a major sect, this level of strength would easily qualify one as an elder.

Especially for a newly established sect like this, it's precisely the time when it needs experts to bolster its reputation.

He was certain that Chu Mo would seriously consider his opinion.

"Zhang Yuan, see the guests out!"

Chu Mo nodded slightly to Huang Dao's eldest disciple, completely ignoring him.

He's just a high-grade Qi Refining cultivator.

Mo Wentian, the elder of the Soul Control Sect who was captured alive by the ascetic cultivators, had this level of cultivation.

Even though he had perfectly controlled the puppet using puppetry, he was still killed afterward.

It was all to avenge the guard who died while saving his mother.

In his eyes, a Qi Refining Stage 1 cultivator was no more noble than an ordinary guard.

However, this white-haired monk clearly misjudged his own worth.

Seeing that Chu Mo rejected her without hesitation, she was shocked.

A sudden surge of regret and annoyance at being disrespected welled up inside him.

Actually, he was just like everyone else; although he felt that this technique would definitely not lead to the Tribulation Transcending stage.

But it definitely won't be bad!

Otherwise, how could Chu Mo, at such a young age, have reached the middle stage of Foundation Establishment? No matter what, his cultivation method must be better than theirs.

This is one of the reasons why the others readily agreed.

But he still wanted to be on the safe side.

After all, once you join the Dragon Hidden Pavilion, there's no going back.

Moreover, given his status and strength, he felt he was qualified to do so.

Unfortunately, Chu Mo didn't take him seriously at all, which caught him off guard.

Looking at the silent rogue cultivators, he couldn't help but sneer in anger and embarrassment:

"Since the threshold for the Dragon Hidden Pavilion is so high, I will continue to be a rogue cultivator. I hope to hear good news about fellow cultivators breaking through their cultivation levels in a while."

Deep down, he resented the other independent cultivators for not standing by him.

Otherwise, Chu Mo would inevitably compromise.

He wanted to see if these people could achieve their goal and leapfrog their current level.

After angrily uttering those words, the cultivator surnamed Chen turned and left with an air of arrogance.

The others who witnessed this were immediately filled with relief.

If we go along with the other party and cause trouble, we'll miss this opportunity.

Chu Mo didn't even glance at the white-haired cultivator, but turned to everyone and smiled:

"From today onwards, Master Huang and Old Tang will officially assume the positions of Elders of the Dragon Hidden Pavilion, responsible for the cultivation and management of the disciples within the sect."

"Green, Paul, Johnny, and Delava served as the Protectors of the Temple."

"As for the others, we'll make plans for them once we have more disciples."

"Tomorrow, I will apply to the authorities to designate Qingyun Mountain, outside Nanhua, as the site of Longyin Pavilion's mountain gate."

"Sect Master, although Qingyun Mountain is majestic and beautiful, it lacks spiritual energy. Is it appropriate to use it as the location of a sect?"

Master Huang had clearly done his homework beforehand and immediately raised a question.

"It's alright, the lack of spiritual energy is not a problem, I have a way to solve it."

Chu Mo waved his hand confidently.

With the Five Elements Banner in hand, spiritual energy is not a problem at all.

What we need to do right now is recruit talented disciples. Before the sect is fully established, let's use this place as our base for the time being.

After discussing it for a while, everyone dispersed.

the next day.

The news of the founding of the Dragon Hidden Pavilion and its recruitment of disciples spread throughout the entire cultivation world, causing a great uproar.

Gu Zhennan of the Yuhun Sect also received the news, but he sneered disdainfully.
