Chapter 301: To deal with the aftermath, find Chu Ning, safe and reliable

Soul Hall.

Chu Ning flew over on his sword and looked at the special shape of the mountain below the Soul Palace. Even though it was not the first time he saw it, he was still a little shocked.

How did this mountain grow?

"Senior, I, the disciple Chu Ning, am here to clean the Soul Hall."

Landing outside the Soul Palace, Chu Ning spoke respectfully.

"Come in."

An old voice sounded in the hall. Chu Ning stepped in and saw the old man who was sitting in the corner stood up for the first time.

"The Soul Hall is cleaned every ten years, mainly to remove the extinguished Soul Lamps."

After the old man finished speaking, he raised his hand and a jade token fell into Chu Ning's hand.

"Inject spiritual energy into the jade token to activate the formation."

After saying this, the old man returned to the corner and continued to close his eyes.

Chu Ning bowed towards the old man to express his gratitude, then input his spiritual power into the jade token. The next moment, light shone from the jade token, shooting towards the surroundings of the hall.

These lights fell around the hall, and the entire hall was experiencing spatial energy fluctuations. Soon, rows of soul lamps appeared on the lamp stands in front of Chu Ning.

Looking around, among the hundreds of soul lamps, five have been extinguished. These five extinguished soul lamps represent that the owners of the lamps have passed away.

Chu Ning carefully took down the five soul lamps, and at the same time he glanced at the other soul lamps. The name of the owner of each soul lamp was posted at the bottom.

Chu Ning's gaze was mainly on the soul lamps whose flames looked precarious and were just one breath away from being extinguished. He silently memorized these names.

These people are about to die.

However, Chu Ning did not see the soul lamps of the elders. It seemed that the soul lamps of the elders were not among the disciples, but were stored in other places.

He did see the names of several disciples of Danshan Sect that he knew, but what puzzled Chu Ning was that he did not see his own name.

Chu Ning glanced at the old man with his eyes closed, thought for a moment and decided not to ask. The spiritual power withdrew from the jade token, and the hall returned to its original state.

"Senior, I will take my leave first."

The old man did not reply, and Chu Ning did not care. He now understood why there were only thirty contribution points in a hundred years.

For this task, you only need to do it ten times, and each time takes less than a quarter of an hour.

If the disciples of Danshan Sect knew that this task was so easy, they would probably regret not accepting it.

"Starting today, I need to walk around the peaks more often."

Chu Ning left the Soul Hall with satisfaction, but he didn't notice that after he left, the old man opened his eyes and there was a smile on his face.

"Soul Mountain is really rare. I wonder how much this little guy's strength will be improved if I bury my old bones there."

…

…

In the next few years, Chu Ning started to move around in Danshan Sect, often visiting various peaks, and soon became familiar with the disciples of each peak.

Chu Ning's talent in alchemy is obvious. Although the disciples from various peaks compete with each other, they will naturally not be cold and indifferent when faced with a genius like Chu Ning, especially one with a warm and enthusiastic smile on his face.

Soon, Chu Ning became familiar with many disciples of Danshan Sect, especially those who were about to die, and they were Chu Ning's main contacts.

For these disciples whose lives are coming to an end, being able to be on good terms with Chu Ning is what they would like to see.

They don't have much time left, and they don't expect to make a breakthrough. They are more concerned about their future generations.

Junior Brother Chu is now in his rising period. Once he breaks through to the Spirit Transformation stage, he will have a long life. If we become good friends with Junior Brother Chu, there will be someone to take care of our family descendants in the future.

One side is interested in making friends, and the other side is also happy to see it happen. Under such circumstances, the relationship between Chu Ning and these disciples who are about to die has rapidly heated up.

"Brother Ge, to be honest, I really don't want to leave you. In the sect, Brother Ge and I hit it off right away. If Brother Ge leaves, I'm afraid I'll lose someone I can talk to."

On a mountain peak of Danshan Sect, Chu Ning was sitting and drinking with an old man, when he suddenly said something with infinite melancholy.

"I am reluctant to leave Junior Brother Chu, but people will eventually grow old. I have lived for more than 1,400 years, which is enough. Junior Brother, there is no need to worry about me."

The old man smiled and comforted Chu Ning, with a touched look on his face. Although he had only known Junior Brother Chu for a few years, he truly regarded him as a close friend.

What is my identity? I am just an ordinary late Nascent Soul disciple of Danshan Sect. What is Junior Brother Chu's identity? He is the sect's Tianjiao disciple.

I don’t have much time left, let alone a genius like Junior Brother Chu, even few of the new junior brothers are willing to pay attention to me.

As for whether Junior Brother Chu would plot against me, what on my body is there worth Junior Brother Chu's plotting against me except for my old bones?

"Brother Ge, you have no descendants in this Dan Domain, do you want to return to the Lower Domain?"

"I'm not going back. I've been in Danyu for seven hundred years. Everything in the lower realm has changed." The old man shook his head. He never looked for a Taoist partner in his life, and he has no descendants.

"Brother Ge, don't worry. I will arrange your funeral for you."

Chu Ning's expression looked very familiar, but the old man was not angry. It is said that the older one gets, the more afraid one is to talk about death, but he has already let it go. Junior Brother Chu said this because he really regarded him as a close friend. If he were an ordinary person, how could he dare to discuss these things while he was alive.

One year later.

There is one more tomb in Tangshan.

【Grave of Senior Brother Ge Daquan. 】

This is the tomb built by Chu Ning. In addition, Chu Ning also prepared a funeral for Ge Daquan and invited many disciples of Danshan Sect to attend.

Many of the Danshan Sect's disciples, whose lives were almost coming to an end, had something in their minds when they saw Ge Daquan's funeral.

Junior Brother Chu is just right.

Senior Brother Ge was able to complete his final journey in such a glorious manner. You should know that even Elder Qi went to the mourning hall in person.

Disciples like them rarely have the opportunity to see the elders during their lifetime, let alone after their death.

As for the burial place, it doesn’t matter where you bury him.

Soon, more and more disciples of Danshan Sect who were about to die came to Chu Ning, and Chu Ning accepted everyone who came.

In just thirty years, Chu Ning sent away twelve late Nascent Soul disciples of Danshan Sect.

Thinking of Tangshan, it also grew to 24,000 feet.

To take care of the funeral, find Chu Ning.

Chu Ning's reputation has spread among the disciples of Danshan Sect.

All the disciples praised Chu Ning's benevolence and righteousness. Everyone was busy refining pills and practicing, but Junior Brother Chu did not hesitate to waste his time to hold a funeral for these senior brothers.

This kind of great love is not something that ordinary people can achieve.

All the disciples of Danshan Sect, whether new or old, would give a thumbs up when mentioning Chu Ning.

This day.

As usual, Chu Ning was about to find a senior brother to discuss his funeral, but he was stopped in mid-air.

"master."

Chu Ning looked at his master who appeared in front of him and felt a little confused. His master had been in seclusion for a long time, so why did he suddenly appear?

"You're addicted to organizing funerals for others. How long have you not made pills?"

Qi Shiyun was also a little overwhelmed when looking at her disciples. She had no sense of accomplishment as a master. The disciples of other elders often came to their masters for answers to their questions about alchemy or cultivation.

But his disciple was different. She never had any doubts when she came to him, but wanted her to attend a funeral.

There is a saying circulating in the sect now: When it comes to funerals, find Chu Ning, it is safe and reliable.

As an elder, attending the funeral, even if he only stayed for a short while, was enough to protect the descendants of these dead disciples.

Many disciples of Danshan Sect have descendants, who all live in many cities at the foot of Danshan Sect. When I appear at the funeral, outside guests don't know the inside story and will only think that I am there to support the descendants of that disciple, so they won't have any bad intentions.

Although the sect will take care of the disciples' descendants after their death, the meaning of this is completely different from an elder personally appearing at the funeral.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Qi Shiyun didn't react at first, but after attending several events in a row, she finally understood why her disciple asked her to attend the funeral.

This is because her disciple wants to use her as a master's signboard to attract popularity for his funeral business.

But the key point is that he did not charge any fees for being a disciple, and even arranged the final burial place for the body.

Apart from some gratitude, there is no real benefit.

Just now, the sect leader found her and talked to her about Chu Ning.

This matter has already reached the ears of the sect leader.

Of course, the sect master would not object to Chu Ning's spirit of selfless dedication to the sect disciples. The main reason was that Chu Ning had a talent for alchemy, but he was not doing his job all day long. The sect master was afraid that Chu Ning would waste his talent, so he found him tactfully to remind him.

"Handling a funeral is a form of cultivation."

Chu Ning muttered to himself, and seeing his master's serious expression, he knew that if he didn't give a reasonable explanation, his master probably wouldn't let him take any free work in the future.

"Master, is it safe for us to talk to each other?"

Qi Shiyun's eyes turned and she said, "Don't worry, there is only one senior in the entire sect who can hear this, but that senior won't listen to this."

This is the answer given by Qi Shiyun because of her confidence in her own strength and her understanding of Danshan Sect.

"Then Master, let me be frank. I feel that if I want to break through to the God Transformation, I may have to take the path of funerals. The more funerals there are, the greater the possibility of breaking through to the God Transformation."

"Are you sure?"

Qi Shiyun frowned. There were indeed many strange ways for cultivators to break through to the God Transformation stage, but this was the first time she heard of a funeral.

It's impossible for someone to be obsessed with funerals.

"Actually, it's not accurate to say that I'm sending you off to a funeral. When I was young, an elder once said this to me. That elder said that a person's true disappearance in this world is not death. Death is only the physical demise. The true disappearance is when one is forgotten by the world."

Chu Ning had long anticipated that his behavior would arouse suspicion among the elders of the sect, so he prepared an excuse in advance.

"This sentence left a deep impression on me. I have kept it in my mind. It may have become an obsession. I just hope that these dead brothers have not really disappeared, because there are still people in this world who remember them."

"They are disciples of Danshan Sect. Although they are just ordinary disciples, it is because of these thousands and thousands of ordinary disciples that we have Danshan Sect today. They should not be forgotten. As long as the disciples are still alive for one day and see the graves of these brothers, they are still alive."

Chu Ning's expression was serious, but Qi Shiyun's face was moved. She didn't expect that her disciple would be so broad-minded.

The world only remembers the geniuses and the strong ones, but who remembers the ordinary disciples of the sects?

But it is precisely these ordinary disciples that make up the existence of the sect.

"Master knows."

Qi Shiyun changed her intention. Since her disciple had great love in his heart and it was related to the transformation of the spirit, she, as a master, would not stop him and would even help.

Soon, at a meeting of elders, Chu Ning's words were spread through Qi Shiyun's mouth, and finally passed on to the ears of the disciples by a certain elder, and then quickly spread to the entire sect.

Senior Brother Chu has great love.

Senior Brother Chu is kind and righteous! All the disciples were deeply moved when they heard what Chu Ning said.

Yes, they are the ordinary disciples that Junior Brother Chu mentioned.

After a thousand years, they turned into dust. Who in the sect would still remember them? But now, Senior Brother Chu remembered them! As long as Senior Brother Chu was still alive, even if they died, they would not really disappear from this world.

The disciples of Danshan Sect were all very excited, and they even began to make suggestions to the elders of each peak, hoping that the sect could devote all its efforts to training Senior Brother Chu.

The further Senior Brother Chu goes and the longer he lives, it means they will live longer too.

Senior Brother Chu no longer lives for himself, but for them.

Chu Ning was shocked when he learned about the reactions of other disciples in the sect from a junior fellow apprentice. It shouldn’t be possible. They were all Nascent Soul powerhouses who had lived for hundreds of years, and they were brainwashed by just a few words from him.

Why don’t they look like people who have lived for hundreds of years? Instead, they look like young people in their twenties or thirties.

This is the difference between the Dan Domain and other domains. Alchemists are relatively pure after all. What's more, those who can join Danshan Sect are alchemy geniuses themselves. They have had a smooth journey without experiencing too much intrigue.

Of course, the most important thing is that Chu Ning is responsible for the funeral, and it does not appear that he has any personal gain.

When a person does things without any self-interest and has great love in his heart, what he says will naturally be more convincing.

With so many disciples reacting, Danshan Sect naturally could not remain indifferent. As the sect master, Xie Jingxing immediately responded to public opinion and announced that Chu Ning would become the chief disciple of Danshan Sect.

All the disciples of Danshan Sect would treat Chu Ning as their eldest senior brother when they saw him.

As soon as this announcement came out, all the disciples cheered. As for Chu Ning's age when he entered the sect, those disciples who entered the sect earlier than him had either become deacons or were old.

No one would have any objection, and even if someone objected in their heart, no one would speak out. If someone objected at this time, they would be spitted to death by the other disciples.

Chu Ning did not expect that he would become the chief disciple just like that. There had never been such a position in Danshan Sect before. This position was specially opened for him.

None of the elders from the various peaks of Danshan Sect objected to Xie Jingxing's decision. Chu Ning's talent would have been fully cultivated by the sect anyway, and he would just have the title of chief disciple.

For Chu Ning, the only benefit is that he can handle the funeral affairs of his senior brothers more openly in the future.

However, relying solely on the aging Nascent Soul disciples of Danshan Sect, Nian Tangshan's growth rate is still not fast.

This also made Chu Ning give up the idea of ​​relying on people to develop.

Now if a person in the late Nascent Soul stage is buried there, the mountain will only grow by a hundred feet, so there is no need to consider the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment stages.

It's time to develop high-end business.

We should think about how to bury the body of the powerful god-transforming warrior on the mountain.

PS: Today is the Winter Solstice. I wish everyone a safe Winter Solstice. Can I ask for a monthly pass?
