Chapter 17: Meeting the Immortal, Bright Future



After bestowing the Taoist name on Qiu Changtian, the head of Ziwei Sect immediately announced:

Kunlun Taiqing Sect is about to hold a ceremony to worship ancestors!

Although it is claimed to be a sacrifice to ancestors, everyone knows what the actual purpose is.

It’s not enough to show off in Kunlun, you have to show off to the entire cultivation world...

Of course, the elders had no reason to object to something that would make the sect famous, and they even quickly and privately messaged their old friends and acquaintances to inform them of the whole story in advance.

Our Kunlun's wise and intelligent Qiu Changtian has actually formed a first-grade golden elixir. Come and see!

As a result, the news spread among various caves and powerful people, and gradually it became a sensation throughout the world.

After Qiu Changtian formed the elixir, he naturally stepped down from the position of the chief of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and was succeeded by Xu Yinglian, who was appointed by Ziwei Sect Leader.

This result was also expected by everyone.

In fact, Xu Yinglian's current level of cultivation and combat strength have far surpassed every generation of great chiefs in Kunlun's history.

Even her great-grandfather, the previous chief Xu Changqing, was inferior to him at this age.

If there was no Qiu Changtian, then Xu Yinglian would be the undisputed "number one person under the Golden Core" in Kunlun, and the most admired disciple of Master Ziwei... Unfortunately, there is no if, and she is destined to be overshadowed by Qiu Changtian's brilliance.

The change of the position of the chief in the Foundation Establishment Realm did not cause any waves.

After the sect conference ended, Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian were brought to Tianmen Palace by Sect Leader Ziwei to meet Immortal Chisong.

Immortal Chisong, the sect elder of Kunlun Taiqing Sect, is an old man who likes to play chess very much.

After listening to Master Ziwei's explanation of the whole story, he looked at Qiu Changtian with some surprise, even dazed.

"It's a first-grade golden elixir." Immortal Chisong said with regret, "If you were born in the era of Chanjiao, you would definitely be taught by Tianzun himself. What a pity."

Sect Leader Ziwei felt a little embarrassed because Immortal Chisong hinted that Qiu Changtian deserves a better master.

However, no matter how conceited and arrogant he was, he did not dare to compete with the Heavenly Master who founded the Chan Sect, so he just nodded silently.

"Now that Chang Geng has become a real person, what do you plan to do?" Immortal Chisong came back to his senses and asked.

"I haven't asked for his opinion yet." Master Ziwei said respectfully.

He turned around and said to Qiu Changtian:

"After becoming a Jindan Zhenren, your identity will change. Let me explain it to you in detail."

"The Golden Core Realm is different from the Foundation Establishment Realm. A cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Realm, no matter how powerful he is, is only a 'disciple'."

"Since you are a disciple, you are a junior in the sect. Your main task is to cultivate the Tao. You don't need to bear the many responsibilities and obligations of the sect, and of course you won't have a very high status."

“But once you have formed a golden elixir, become a true person, and obtain a Taoist name, you will be a formal cultivator of the sect from then on, with an independent and complete identity and status.”

"For example, if you leave Kunlun as a real person, you can go to the outside world and create your own Taoist school. Except for the Kunlun-specific secrets protected by a few sects, you can teach the rest as the Taoist legacy of your own sect, and the sect will also recognize it."

"Disciple has no such thought." Qiu Changtian said hurriedly.

"It doesn't matter if there is one." Immortal Chisong stroked his beard and said, "Our Kunlun is not a den of dragons and tigers. There is no principle of allowing entry but not exit. It's just that for most Jindan Zhenren, leaving Kunlun to establish a sect outside has no practical benefits."

“Those who actually run outside are usually Jindan Zhenren who are nearing the end of their lives and have no hope of breaking through, so your master just said it casually and didn’t mean to warn you.”

Master Ziwei nodded slightly and continued:

"If you don't plan to leave Kunlun, you will have to fulfill your obligations within the sect."

"There are six halls in Kunlun Yuxu Palace, namely 'Discipline', 'Patrol', 'Guidance', 'Record Keeper', 'Guest Reception'."

"Among them, the discipline is responsible for criminal law and restraining the monks in the sect; it patrols and protects the prestige of the sect and fights against the evil sects outside."

"He is in charge of bringing goods from all directions and providing supplies; the registrar is in charge of maintaining the orthodox tradition and compiling the secret scriptures."

"I keep the records and documents in the book office, and take care of the affairs of the upper and lower levels; I welcome guests at the majestic mountain gate and entertain fellow travelers from all over the world."

"Which class do you plan to join next?"

Qiu Changtian listened carefully and realized that if Kunlun Taiqing Sect was a country, then the precepts would be the public security, procuratorate and courts, the patrol would be the military, the guide would be the commerce and customs, the historian would be the Ministry of Science and Education, the bookkeeper would be the Organization Department, and the receptionist would be the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

If you ask yourself about your own intentions, then first rule out Zhiyin Hall and Yingke Hall. These two halls are responsible for handling trivial matters. Not only are they heavy tasks on weekdays, but they are also relatively less valued and belong to the cattle and horse departments.

If you want to live a more luxurious life, you can choose the Dianshi Hall or the Shoubu Hall. The former is responsible for managing scriptures and documents, and has plenty of time every day, so it is very leisurely; the latter is responsible for the monthly salary supply of many monks in the sect, and holds real power, so the status is naturally noble.

On the other hand, if you can't sit still and want to make a name for yourself, you can also go to the Discipline Hall or the Patrol Hall. The former specializes in beating fellow disciples, while the latter specializes in beating outsiders. Your fighting skills can grow quickly, and the possibility of winning the attention of the sect in the future is also higher.

However, although Qiu Changtian had various thoughts in his mind, as a senior spy, he naturally could not be stupid enough to really make a choice. He just respectfully replied to Master Ziwei:

"Master, please accept my orders. I dare not refuse."

I am a brick of the sect, I will be moved wherever I am needed! I will resolutely obey the organization's deployment!

The headmaster of Ziwei Sect was a little surprised, but the Immortal Chisong laughed and said:

"You sly fellow, you have formed a first-grade golden elixir at such a young age, why are you acting like a cautious casual cultivator?"

"In that case, let your master arrange it!"

Upon hearing this, Master Ziwei smiled and said:

"You have been in the limelight recently, but too much is as bad as too little. I plan to arrange for you to be in the Dianshi Hall first, and listen to the instructions of Elder Qinggui. What do you think?"

Elder Qinggui, who was born in the Xu family of Tiannan, is currently in charge of guarding the Sutra Library of Kunlun Taiqing Sect - yes, it is the Elder Xu who taught Qiu Changtian the Thunder Method.

The arrangement made by the head of Ziwei Sect was clearly to let him go there to enjoy a good life. How could Qiu Changtian refuse? He immediately agreed:

"It's all up to the master."

Xu Yinglian stood by the side the whole time, listening silently to the conversation between the elders and senior brothers without saying a word.

After knowing that my senior brother was going to follow that old ancestor, I felt a little envious for a moment.

As for why I am envious, I can’t really explain it, but I am envious anyway.

"Ying Lian, come here too." After arranging Qiu Changtian's affairs, Master Ziwei motioned for her to go over and meet the Immortal Chisong.

"Senior." Xu Yinglian bowed gracefully.

"Not bad." Immortal Chisong looked at her admiringly. "Although she is not as good as Chang Geng, she is not far behind. She is more than qualified to be the chief of the Foundation Establishment Realm."

Xu Yinglian: ...
