Those disciples who can get to know the elders are also a kind of resource.
Who knows, you might just get lucky and be accepted as a disciple? Even just receiving a few pointers on a daily basis would be considered incredibly lucky.
Originally, working as a steward disciple or a menial disciple under an inner sect elder meant receiving several times the pay compared to other places. Less work, better environment, higher salary—wouldn't everyone be scrambling to get in?
Hohhot is such a worry-free place. Wouldn't it be unsettling to receive such a high salary?
When He Zhuo heard what the disciple said, he turned to look at him and asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Lang Junjie."
"Are you a descendant of the Lang family?" He Zhuo could tell at a glance that this disciple had three spiritual roots, and his spiritual root aptitude was similar to that of Xiao Ba. He was already 150 years old, but he had only just reached the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
"I am from a collateral branch of the Lang family." He got this job because he saved a young master from the main branch by chance.
The Lang family is an affiliated family of the sect, mainly skilled in alchemy. They produced a fifth-level alchemist who is the Grand Elder of the sect's Inner Alchemy Peak.
He Zhuo had previously asked him to practice the "Spirit Cleansing Pill".
No wonder the spiritual flowers and herbs in the back peak are managed so well; one of the bags contained dozens of baskets of spiritual fruits.
He Zhuo looked at Lang Junjie with clear eyes. At the age of 150, he was able to reach the Foundation Establishment stage with the aptitude of mixed spiritual roots and even enter He Zhuo's courtyard as a steward disciple. It was clear that he had encountered many opportunities.
Let's make a good connection; Hezhuo will always ascend to heaven before Yinreng and Xiao Ba.
"I see that you have the aptitude of fire, wood, and earth elements, which makes you perfect for becoming an alchemist. Do you have any ideas?"
When Lang Junjie heard what the real person said, he knew that the real person was going to give him a chance.
He knelt down with a "plop".
He Zhuo saw that he was quite clever: "Take it, here are some first-level pill formulas, and a book called 'Elementary Alchemy'."
Lang Junjie was deeply grateful. Although he was born into a family of alchemists, he didn't have many opportunities due to his mixed spiritual roots. He was only familiar with spiritual herbs and medicines and could only make some low-grade medicinal liquids.
“Master, I will study diligently and will never fail to live up to your expectations.”
"Just don't let yourself down," He Zhuo waved his hand.
"By the way, Master, could you perhaps recruit two more menial disciples? The spiritual flowers and herbs on the back peak are probably a bit lacking..."
Lang Junjie needs to study alchemy, so he probably won't have as much free time as before. He might as well go to the mission hall and find two menial disciples.
"Alright, I understand. I'll mention it when I go to the mission hall later, and have two people come to help you." After saying that, He Zhuo tore open the Flying Crane Talisman and left.
Two months later, He Zhuo led his disciples to the Yunlan Sect.
Xiao Ba and his group arrived two days earlier than Xuan Tianzong.
At the beginning, it was a competition for disciples in the Qi Refining stage. He Zhuo was not present, as he was busy giving Yinreng and Xiao Ba medicinal baths.
The sect competition is not only about fighting, but also about alchemy, weapon crafting, and talisman making, which greatly inspired He Zhuo.
Both Xiao Ba and Yinreng are in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and their rankings are quite good, both making it into the top 100. Keep in mind that there are over 100,000 participants in the late stage of Foundation Establishment alone, so making it into the top 100 is no easy feat.
When they returned, they had lost nearly one-fifth of their disciples compared to when they arrived. These kinds of competitions are all life-or-death battles, and there's no room for fancy moves. This was considered good; some families had all their elite disciples wiped out.
After the competition, many forces will be reshuffled.
He Zhuo successfully progressed from the late Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul stage and then to the Deity Transformation stage in less than 200 years. This small world could not accommodate a Deity Transformation cultivator, so He Zhuo crossed the interface passage and went to the Middle Thousand World.
