Chapter 8 Something is wrong with this Supreme Sect
The Supreme Sect is located in the northern part of Zhongzhou. It is the beginning of spring in the south, but the snow has just cleared in the north.
Nine peaks are staggered in the clouds and mountains, with overlapping mountains, snow-covered mountaintops, lush pine forests, and a trail of light mist can be vaguely seen above the sky, dragged out by the wind.
The spirit ship stopped on one of the peaks, and a huge square was coming down. Nine sky-high stone pillars stood neatly in the square, surrounding the black and white patterned Bagua training ground. A huge bronze tripod stood in the middle, and three incense sticks inside had just burned halfway, and the red color was buried by the ashes, faintly showing signs that it was still burning.
He Gui noticed that Lin Du's eyes fell on the three incense sticks, and explained, "This is the main peak of the sect. Three incense sticks are used to worship the ancestors of heaven and earth and the Great Dao."
"Now that you have entered our Supreme Sect, you must meet our leader first." As soon
as He Gui finished speaking, two figures appeared in front of the square. In addition to the three incense sticks, there was also a faint aroma of... stewed pork with pickled cabbage in the air.
Lin Du felt that she was more or less crazy with hunger, otherwise how could she smell such food, she raised her eyes and looked.
One of them had a dainty face and elegant appearance, and wore a long purple robe with silver silk embellishments, which was glittering and shining like spring flowers under the sunset;
the other one was more in line with Lin Du's imagination of an elder, wearing a simple white dress, but not pure white, with complicated silver butterfly patterns on her hair, with cold eyebrows and eyes, and only a little red mole at the corner of her eye revealed a different style.
She was a goddess, a fairy from heaven, if you ignore the spatula in the purple-clothed female cultivator's hand that was still greasy, and the handful of fresh green leafy vegetables in the white-clothed female cultivator's hand that was still dripping with water.
What a pure and unpretentious fairy.
Lin Du took a step back, wondering if she had entered the wrong sect.
[No, dear, you didn't enter the wrong sect]
"I've met the head." He Gui bowed his hands and saluted.
The people behind him followed suit, but they heard the gorgeous woman laughing, "Alright, there are only a few of you here, why are you pretending to be serious?"
Lin Du was stunned for a moment. Why did this sect seem different from what he had imagined?
The purple-clothed woman took a quick look and her eyes fell on Lin Du. "Where did you kidnap such a little fellow? Poor thing. Tianwu, take her to your uncle Jiang Liang later to have a look. You can take all the herbs she needs from the sect's storehouse."
"If they don't have them... then see if we can grow them in the fertile soil in the back hill. Otherwise, you can just go to the secret realm more often. After all, the purpose of our Supreme Sect is to be self-sufficient."
He Gui curled his lips, and his gentle appearance just now was almost gone. "Master Sister, please leave some illusions for the kids."
The purple-clothed woman laughed. "They have been deceived, where else can they go?"
The new disciples looked at each other and saw confused doubts in each other's eyes.
"Since there are only four disciples, the two of you who are taking in disciples this year should divide the food equally."
Ju Yuan and Cang Li looked at each other, and then looked at Lin Du at the same time, as if she was not a person, but a big chicken drumstick that had just come out of the oven.
Lin Du: ... The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
"Those who went to farm have not returned yet, so I will be the chef tonight." Feng Chao said with a smile, "Okay, they are all our own children. It's too late to say those empty words. Your cultivation is still shallow, and you are all hungry. Eat first, and talk after dinner." Suddenly,
a voice rang out in the square, "Let the child come directly to Luoze after dinner."
Luoze has been frozen for thousands of years. Ordinary low-level cultivators can hardly bear it. Only those with ice spirit roots can stay there. The person who called could only be Lin Du.
Feng Chao was startled, then responded and looked at Lin Du, "I think the Immortal Yanye who is in seclusion in the forbidden area wants to accept you as a disciple. He is also born with ice spirit roots and is the last disciple of my master before he ascended to heaven."
Ju Yuan's eyelids jumped, and his eyes suddenly became weird. I treat you as my apprentice, and you want to be my junior sister?
The group came to the dining hall in a mighty manner. In an instant, there was a pot of sauerkraut stewed with white meat, a pot of iron pot stewed goose, a large pot of spiritual chicken stewed with fresh mushrooms, and a mountain of steamed buns and rice on the table. Then the female cultivator in white hurried into the back kitchen, "There is one last dish, wait a moment."
Lin Du took a deep breath. This Supreme Sect, something is wrong.
It's really wrong.
But... it smells so good.
A group of people sat down at the table, and soon the eyes of several children lit up.
"It seems that the head sister used low-level spirit beasts to take care of you today. The spiritual energy is just right for you, the monks who have just entered the sect." He Gui explained.
If you eat a spirit beast that is much higher than your own level, you will have too much spiritual energy and explode and die.
"This is low-level spirit pork stewed with sunflower pickles pickled by our sect. The soil of our Wushang Sect is very good. This sunflower pickle is newly pickled. And this Shu Yan, it is not eaten unless it is a major festival. This is to celebrate you new disciples entering the sect."
The three real people began to serve rice to the children, using a bowl bigger than Lin Du's face.
Lin Du said modestly, "I am weak and I can only eat a small amount of rice, so I will just eat one mouthful." He
Gui nodded, then pressed the rice that was piled high in the bowl and handed it to her, "Here, one mouthful."
Lin Du: ...That's fine.
After a cup of tea, the thin and weak boy in green clothes held the bowl in one hand and the chopsticks in the other. On the chopsticks were the big goose legs that everyone had given her, and there was also a chicken leg with a thick sauce in the bowl.
And the rice bowl that was pressed was already three-quarters empty.
Lin Du ate very quickly, one mouthful of meat and one large chopstick of rice, as if it was a set program design, but his eating manner was extremely elegant, and except for the sounds of chewing and swallowing, he was very quiet, looking neither fast nor slow, but in fact he was progressing very fast.
The remaining three disciples looked at this "weak body and small appetite" man, who finished a bowl of rice, two legs and half a piece of pickled cabbage and pork, and calmly put down his bowl and chopsticks... and then picked up a steamed bun.
The elders looked at Lin Du with love. Look, this child has suffered in the mortal world. No wonder he is so thin. He hasn't eaten enough in thirteen years.
"Elder, don't you want to eat?" "
We won't eat. We will wait for you to reach the Huiyang Realm, where you can directly use the energy of heaven and earth for your own use, and you don't need to eat."
The lowest of the elders of the Supreme Sect has entered the fourth stage of the Huiyang Realm, and the head has entered the fifth stage of the Qianyuan Realm.
Finally, after finishing a bowl of rice and a steamed bun as big as half a face, Lin Du stopped and praised sincerely, "The rice cooked by the head is really delicious."
The food in the cultivation world is more delicious than that in the mortal world, and the Supreme Sect is rich in spiritual energy and fertile in land, so the food grown here has a natural spiritual charm. Lin Du touched his stomach and thought that he had eaten too much.
Feng Chao's smile became even more intense, but the disciple behind him hesitated to speak.
"Will Junior Sister be in trouble if she eats so much?"
Feng Chao was stunned for a moment, "For example?"
"For example, she is going to advance."
Everyone looked at the green-robed boy in the middle in a daze, but saw that she rubbed her stomach and subconsciously wanted to guide the spiritual energy scattered from the stomach contents to the central meridian, so the spiritual energy continued to circulate, and finally gathered in the dantian, forming a faint white light ball.
The white light ball continued to grow larger, and the belly that was originally a little bulging slowly lost its excessive feeling of fullness, but Lin Du still couldn't stop.
He Gui Zhenren: You see! I said that it is easier for the geniuses in our sect to absorb spiritual energy than to eat and drink water!
