Chapter 40: Eclipse Moon Peak
However, within a short period of time, the lotus leaves were filled with disciples of the outer sect wearing green robes.
Ji Yuenian and several other disciples who had cultivated to the Profound Sea took out a piece of spirit stone and handed it over. After the chauffeur tapped the spirit stone, he said with a smile, "Brothers and sisters, this is the spell that activates the lotus leaves. Let's go."
After the words fell, he took out several jade talismans and handed them to Ji Yuenian and the others. Then, he directly picked up the seal, and the mysterious light circulated around the huge lotus leaf, making it tremble ever so slightly.
This seal formula was extremely simple. After Ji Yuenian glanced at the information contained in the jade talisman, he followed the chauffeur disciple and others to activate the magic formula. The lotus leaf finally rose slowly into the sky and escaped from Service Peak.
"Senior brother got a lot of spirit stones from this trip, more than my annual resource share."
A disciple who handed in two spirit stones looked envious, looking at the chauffeur at the very front of the lotus leaf.
The chauffeur shook his head and said with a smile, "This junior brother, it seems that you are a new disciple who entered the Outer Sect ahead of time by virtue of your relationship. Although you can earn dozens of spirit stones from this trip, 95% of them have to be handed in. At most, I can only get half from the Sect Affairs Hall. What's more... this lotus leaf also belongs to the Sect Affairs Hall, and I have to pay five spirit stones every day to use it."
The disciple was a little stunned when he heard the words, and said, "After all, even if you run for a whole day, senior brother can only make enough stones to fit in a bag or two?"
The chauffeur nodded and said, "If you are busy from day to night, for a full twelve hours, you can only earn three or four spirit stones."
The other disciple of the upper level of the Profound Realm who was helping to steer the lotus leaf sneered and said to the new disciple, "You said 'only' just now? Don't underestimate these chauffeur, all of them have a profound background. They are 10,000 times richer than us, you only get two spirit stones a month, and they get three or four spirit stones a day. We can't even compare to them."
The chauffeur looked a little embarrassed and said, "As poor as I am, how can I have any background, senior brother must be joking."
The disciple in the upper realm of the Nascent Profound sneered and stopped talking.
If one had not cultivated up to the Profound Sea, then it would cost him two spirit stones to ride a lotus leaf. Therefore, after many new disciples arrived at their mountain peaks, they could go to Shanwu Peak at least once every two months with two spirit stones a month. The share of resources was only enough to pay for the ride and house, and there would not be even the slightest surplus.
Lotus leaves pierced through the clouds and mists in the mountains, stopping from time to time to drop the disciples on their respective peaks, but the speed was not very fast.
After so many intervals, it took about half an hour before the lotus leaves reached the side of the Eclipse Moon Peak.
"Senior brother, Eclipse Moon Peak is here." The chauffeur stopped the lotus leaf and said to Ji Yuenian.
Ji Yueniaodded, and took out his token and felt the light flashing on it.
He turned around and jumped off the lotus leaf, and a mysterious air flow appeared under his feet, making him land firmly on the ground.
"A new disciple?"
Some lazy voices drifted over. Ji Yuenian stood firm, looked up, and the person who spoke was a young man in his twenties.
"Yes, brother."
The young man was sitting on the open-air jade couch for cultivation. He first got up and glanced at the many courtyards surrounded by clouds and mist on the mountainside of Eclipse Moon Peak, and then looked at Ji Yuenian and said, "Go in, choose a courtyard that is unoccupied at will."
Ji Yuenian appeared to be confused and said, "Then what?"
"No then," the young man sat down again, "There are only a few dozen people in the Eclipse Moon Peak, and they take turns to guard here, just to guide you new disciples."
After saying this, he closed his eyes directly and entered cultivation.
Ji Yuenian looked up at the majestic gate tower of Eclipse Moon Peak, and then looked at the young man who was cultivating with eyes closed below, shook his head slightly, and walked directly past the gate tower towards the courtyard behind.
The Eclipse Moon Peak was full of vitality, and many medicinal flowers and spiritual plants were arranged neatly on both sides, making the scenery breathtaking. Each courtyard loft was extremely spacious, and there were at least ten feet away from each other.
Ji Yuenian didn't go to the deepest part, but found a quiet courtyard with no one, and walked straight in.
He entered the courtyard, and a blazing white light spread from the inside. The Outer Sect token in the White Jade Ring trembled slightly, and seemed to have a very sensitive response to this radiance.
Ji Yuenian took out the token, and the blazing white light surged towards the token frantically, and after a while, all of it encompassed the token, making a blazing white rainbow swirling on the black token.
An inexplicable induction rose from the token. Ji Yuenian moved the token, and a thick light shield appeared outside the entire courtyard, completely isolating the outside world's probe and profound energy.
Walking into the courtyard, there were several mysterious lights surging on the token one after another, which were a few paragraphs of extremely important information, and it was only at this moment that the courtyard was selected.
<em class="chakra-text css-0">Taiyu Holy Sect’s rules.
Ji Yuenian frowned slightly, ignored it for the time being, and turned to look at the information contained in the next piece of information.
A brief introduction to the upper court, the middle and the lower court of Eclipse Moon Peak.
What was recorded in it was the basic information of the three courts of Eclipse Peak and the mountain regulations of Eclipse Peak. After reading this article, Ji Yuenian's face darkened slightly.
Eclipse Moon Peak was not a good place. Not only did he have to hand over a spirit stone to the main hall on the peak every month, but he also had to plant and take care of the spiritual field for three days every twenty days.
Each mountain had different minor regulations. It was not a violation of the sect rules for the peak master to collect spirit stones from the disciples who lived in the mountain, but the vast majority of the peak masters did not do this, instead they paid the disciples who took care of the spiritual and medicinal fields.
There were also very few peak masters who treated the disciples within the mountain extremely harshly.
Obviously, the Eclipse Moon Peak assigned to Ji Yuenian was one of them.
Ji Yuenian suddenly thought of the look in the chauffeur’s eyes just now. He must have known that Eclipse Moon Peak was such a mountain, but the distribution of the mountain was decided when the token was bound, and he couldn't help it without authorizatioeeded to do anything about it.
There were several other pieces of information in the token. After reading them one by one, Ji Yuenian's face completely sank.
The peak master of Eclipse Moon Peak was so strict that he even privately asked the disciples who entered the peak by recommendation to retake the entrance examination in twenty days!
If he failed the assessment, he would be expelled from the mountain and demoted to a servant disciple!
