It still looks like "Sea Heart Ice Flame", but there are actually differences.
Just as He Zhuo was about to try out this strange fire and perhaps refine a weapon, the sect's communication jade slip rang.
“Mi Jing, the sect competition that takes place once every 50 years is about to begin. You have never led a team before, so this time you and Master Zigu will lead the team. Master Chengkang will also be going, and his closed-door disciple will also participate.”
That's the sect leader's voice.
The six major sects hold a sect competition every 50 years. Anyone, whether a disciple of a sect, a rogue cultivator, or a cultivation family, can participate. It has been held for more than 100 sessions.
Things were fine when I was in the outer sect, but ever since I was promoted to the inner sect, the sect leader has approached He Zhuo multiple times, asking him to take on disciples. In the cultivation world, the relationship between master and disciple is more reliable and stable than that between parents and children; the karmic connection is immense.
He Zhuo only wanted to cultivate diligently, to advance from the Lower Thousand Realms to the Middle Thousand Realms as soon as possible, and then return to the Upper Thousand Realms, to his sect and his master.
Not wanting to form a karmic bond with his master, he refused.
Moreover, the sect leader couldn't catch He Zhuo either, as he was always out wandering. He only returned to the sect in recent years, but he has been in seclusion ever since, so he is rarely seen.
He Zhuo thought about it and declined to accept a disciple. It wasn't good to keep refusing to lead a team, and besides, he could still see Yinreng and Xiao Ba.
As expected, He Zhuo sent a communication talisman, and Xiao Ba replied that he was already on his way to Yunlan Sect.
This sect competition is being held at the Yunlan Sect.
Yunlan Sect is the second largest power in this Lower Thousand Realms, while the largest power is naturally Xuantian Sect, where He Zhuo resides.
After looking at the other messages and finding nothing particularly important, I replied to the sect leader, accepted the task of leading the team, and prepared to leave.
It felt like someone had tampered with the defensive array at the entrance.
"Master, you have emerged from seclusion."
It turns out they were steward disciples from the Hezhuo Academy. The Inner Sect Elders' Council has one steward disciple to manage miscellaneous tasks, and another 2-10 miscellaneous disciples.
He Zhuo said he didn't like large groups of people, so he only had one steward disciple and two servant disciples.
However, He Zhuo usually didn't have much for them to do. Not only did they rarely return to the sect, but when they did, they would go into seclusion, making them a rare sight.
"It's you," He Zhuo actually didn't know the person's name at all. When the elder who handled the matter mentioned it, He Zhuo agreed without caring who it was, since she didn't have anything to manage anyway.
The two mountains on either side were given to Khoja, and they could do whatever they wanted with them.
"Master, when the Sect Leader came to see you the other day, you were in seclusion. For this grand competition held once every 50 years, the Sect Leader hopes that you will take on the task of leading the team. What do you think?" The disciple in charge asked very respectfully.
"I understand, I've already accepted it."
"Master, this is the mountain's output since you arrived at the inner sect, after deducting the portion handed over to the sect." He Zhuo respectfully handed over two storage bags. He Zhuo looked at them and thought, "Not bad, quite plentiful."
He Zhuo was alone on the mountain peak, with her two pets, one steward disciple, and two menial disciples. The entire back mountain was planted with spiritual flowers and herbs.
Here we get the goods. It seems that it was mentioned during the allocation that this hilltop was originally inhabited by an alchemist.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Is there anything else? I need to get to the mission hall in a hurry."
"Master, if you have any errands to run, you can also entrust them to your disciple." Elder Mi Zhen is really too easy to deal with, which makes people feel flustered and uneasy.
Not just anyone can become an elder's steward or servant disciple. The fact that the inner sect elders' residences are filled with abundant spiritual energy is enough to make people scramble for them. And from time to time, there are also rewards from the elders or their disciples.
