Lin Jiang of the Five Elements

Sect went smoothly in his foundation building again. When Zhang Wanjing accepted him as his disciple, Lin Jiang had already reached the ninth level of Qi training. Not long after, he entered the great perfection of Qi training.

The foundation building pill was provided by Zhang Wanjing. He knew Lin Jiang's talent of five spiritual roots, so he gave him two at a time. After that, Lin Jiang went into seclusion. With the experience of building the foundation before, he succeeded with only one foundation building pill.

At this time, Lin Jiang's public age was 46 years old, but in fact he was 249 years old.

"In a few months, I will be 250 years old. I hope I am not 250 years old."

Lin Jiang sighed. 250 years old, a dynasty can go from its establishment to its demise once, and mortals can reproduce ten generations.

"Disciple Xiao Yi pays homage to the master."

After building the foundation, Lin Jiang went to pay homage to Zhang Wanjing as soon as possible. This is the courtesy that a disciple should have.

"You are very good, you didn't let me down."

Zhang Wanjing looked at Lin Jiang with satisfaction. Five spiritual roots were not an advantage in the Five Elements Sect at first. The Five Elements Sect was no exception. Being able to break through the foundation building in one go showed that Lin Jiang's comprehension was still good.

"It's all thanks to Master,"

Lin Jiang said. Zhang Wanjing was very good to him. He not only gave him the foundation building pill, but also the supporting auxiliary pills, including the foundation building experience, etc.

"Master leads you to the door, but the practice is up to you. You still have to work hard on your own."

"Yes, Master."

"Since you have built the foundation, it's different. What are your plans for the future?"

"It's all up to Master."

"If I were to arrange it, I hope you would work by my side. I'm in urgent need of manpower, but I'm afraid of delaying you."

"Master, this..."

Lin Jiang was a little confused. What did Zhang Wanjing mean?

"Xiao Yi, do you know the master's situation?"

"I don't understand. I was just an ordinary little disciple in the outer sect."

Lin Jiang shook his head. He really didn't know what Zhang Wanjing's situation was. His level was too low. How much could an outer sect disciple know?

"Master, it's very difficult."

Zhang Wanjing hesitated for a moment and said such a sentence, which made Lin Jiang frown. Isn't Zhang Wanjing a senior manager of the sect? He is a big boss second only to the Yuanying elder of the sect.

"You are still young and don't understand. Then do you know how many years the Five Elements Sect has been passed down?"

"The first in Yunzhou, the inheritance has exceeded 6,000 years. I have learned it in Shanxuetang."

Lin Jiang replied. Shanxuetang will teach the history of the Five Elements Sect. This is what he has learned. The founder of the Five Elements Sect was just a foundation-building body. Not long after founding the Five Elements Sect, he died in the mouth of a monster. But his disciples and grandchildren have expanded the Five Elements Sect step by step until now, it has become one of the three overlords of Yunzhou.

“Yes, I learned it in Shan Academy, but Shan Academy will not teach you. The Five Elements Sect today is very different from before. The current senior leaders, even those Nascent Soul elders, are all selfish. All they do is to use the sect to make money. Their descendants occupy high positions in the sect, but they are just sitting there doing nothing and have no ambition. They are all a group of parasites who are draining the entire Five Elements Sect.”

“Ahem, Master, this…”

Lin Jiang was shocked. Is his master Zhang Wanjing still an angry young man? But you can be an angry young man, but can you tell him about this? He can’t stand it. He is just a small shrimp in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

"What are you afraid of? They dare to do it, so why would they be afraid of being talked about? In the Five Elements Sect, how many people in each hall and each branch are actually doing practical work now?"

"Master, that's serious."

"Humph, it's serious. If you were in the master's position, you might find that I was saying the lightest thing. The Five Elements Sect hasn't recruited disciples from mortals on a large scale for nearly five hundred years. Now, the disciples are all descendants of sect disciples. Originally, this was a good thing, but the problem is that there are fewer and fewer descendants of ordinary disciples, and more and more children of large families. Several large families are about to divide up the Five Elements Sect."

"It seems to be the same for Zhongxing Sect and Yunjian Sect,"

Lin Jiang said. He remembered that Zhongxing Sect and Yunjian Sect were the same. The recruitment of disciples mainly relied on the offspring of the disciples within the sect, unless they met someone with great talent outside, such as Cao Ying sent by Lin Jiang, otherwise they would not recruit them, or they would be thrown to the outer sect.

"That's true. Any sect that has been passed down for more than a thousand years must have many factions and problems. My Five Elements Sect is no exception. The same is true for the Yunjian Sect and the Zhongxing Sect. But is it right for everyone?"

"No, Master is right,"

Lin Jiang quickly followed his words. They are all wrong. You are right. You are the master.

"I am from the lineage of Master Yu Jin. Do you know Master Yu Jin?"

"I know. I learned it at Shanxuetang. Master Yu Jin is the ancestor of the revival of my Five Elements Sect,"

Lin Jiang said. Master Yu Jin is the legendary ancestor of the Five Elements Sect. The Five Elements Sect prospered completely in his hands. He has two achievements in his life that still affect the Five Elements Sect.

The first is to cultivate the ancestors of the God of Transformation, and it has been passed down from generation to generation. This is the guarantee that the Five Elements Sect can become one of the three overlords of Yunzhou. The second is the development strategy of the Five Elements Sect.

The Five Elements Sect has the most powerful spiritual plant husband and the most complete spiritual medicine planting system, which is the strategy formulated by the ancestor Yu Jin. Although the spiritual plant husband is not as rich and domineering as the alchemist and sword practitioner, he is the most stable.

"Since you know, then you should know that the way we seek in our lineage is not to become immortals, but for the sect. We are the people of the sect when we are alive and the ghosts of the sect when we die. We can shed our last drop of blood for the sect."

"..."

Lin Jiang suddenly felt that he was finished. This was what he feared most, people who gave everything for their lofty beliefs. This reminded Lin Jiang of the word "Virgin Mary".

"Protect the enemy's Virgin Mary and kill your own Virgin Mary, but what if your own Virgin Mary is the master? Waiting online, it's urgent."

Lin Jiang shouted in his heart. He felt that he was a little hasty in becoming a disciple. Can he regret it?

"You don't seem happy?"

"No, I was shocked by what Master said. I felt like I had been enlightened. It turns out that practicing is not just for immortality."

"Of course, immortality is a vague thing. There has never been an example of ascension in Yunzhou. The entire world of immortal cultivation has not heard of anyone ascending for thousands of years. People like me who practice cultivation, do we live only for the illusory ascension and ignore the present?"

"Master is right. The difficult situation you mentioned is because of this, right?" "That's

right. The high-level officials of the Five Elements Sect all want to achieve immortality, and immortality is an extremely selfish thing. To achieve this goal, they have to constantly plunder resources and ignore the future of the sect. Because of these things, your master has to quarrel with many elders several times a year."

"Ah"

Lin Jiang exclaimed again. You, a Jindan, quarreled with a Yuanying, and they didn't draw their swords to chop you?

"Are you wondering why those people don't deal with me, or even kill me?"

"Ahem, disciple dare not ."

"There's nothing to be afraid of. Do you think they haven't thought about it? They are all smart people. They know there are not many people in the sect who do practical work. If they kill me, who will make resources for them? You

know the Ten Thousand Medicine Conference, this matter was advocated and organized by me, the master. From initiation, formulation, to expansion of the city, inviting various sects, and deciding to take out a large number of spiritual medicines and elixirs to attract independent cultivators, which one was not done by me personally? Without me doing these things, how could they make so much money?"

"So now the elders love and hate the master?"

"It's almost, they need me to make money for them, but they don't want me to interfere with their money-making. It's very contradictory." "

Why does the master have to do these thankless things ?"

Lin Jiang couldn't understand. Since the top leaders didn't care about the life and death of the sect, why did you care so much? Just lie down and let it go. If we are going to fail, we will fail together.

Now the top leaders know that you care about the sect, so they use this to make you work, and when they get the benefits, they kick you away. Isn't this bullying an honest person? If it were Lin Jiang, he would definitely give up.

"Why? Because this is what my master taught me. This is inheritance, from generation to generation."

"Now it's my turn?"

"That's right, otherwise why would they accept you as a disciple? You are capable. When you knew about the Ten Thousand Medicine Conference, you immediately started to plan. During the Ten Thousand Medicine Conference, you earned spirit stones that other outer disciples could not earn in their lifetime. So I hope that you can use this ability on the sect."

"I work, and others eat meat. Master, I can't do that."

Lin Jiang showed his cards. He is not such an honest person. He hopes to be the one who eats meat. Let others do the work.

"If everyone wants to eat meat instead of working, where will the meat come from?"

"Find someone who is willing to work."

"What if there is no one?"

"I don't know,"

Lin Jiang said, but what he wanted to say was, if no one is working, then just run away or just give up. I can't do it all, but why should I do it if no one is working? Do I look so easy to bully?

"Actually, you can think of it this way. Everyone in the sect still has to do their job. The elders are not useless. At least they protect the sect. If there is no military force to provide protection, then no matter how much we do, it will be a waste of time, right?"

"Yes, but the disciple wants to say that I can also protect others and become stronger."

Lin Jiang was anxious. He finally understood that Zhang Wanjing was brainwashing him. He wanted Lin Jiang to be like him, to belittle himself and become an old workhorse who shed blood and tears for the sect.

"Xiao Yi, people are different. You have five spiritual roots and grow slowly. You don't belong to this role."

"Master, are you trying to say that I have no choice?"

"Well, it's your bad luck to meet me."

Zhang Wanjing also showed his hand. He also saw that this little disciple was not so easy to fool. So he showed his hand. It was bad luck to meet him. Don't struggle.

"When in danger, kill your own saint first. Brothers really didn't lie to me."

Lin Jiang looked at Zhang Wanjing and said, he couldn't hide the look in his eyes that wanted to kill someone with a knife.
