From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS - Chapter 498
Chapter 498 – 498 Chapter 498-Is The Sect Master Ready To Take In Disciples?
498 Chapter 498-is the sect master ready to take in disciples?
In front of the mountain Gate.
A stone tablet stood tall with the words ‘sky origin’ written on it.
!!
A black-robed man was sitting cross-legged beside the stone tablet.
Instantly.
Gong mingze’s expression turned serious.
The sky corpse Jiang Feng!
In the world, any cultivator with a bit of knowledge would know that there was a celestial being sitting at the mountain Gate of Yuan sect.
As for the origin of this heavenly being …
He was the previous sect master of the heavenly corpse sect, Jiang Feng.
…..
Although he was a late-stage divine martial realm cultivator, he still felt a strong sense of threat when facing a celestial realm expert.
Especially from the black-robed man.
Gong mingze could sense the brutal aura hidden in the black robe, which made him extremely afraid.
a celestial being guarding the gate? what a great move by Yuan sect!
At this moment, he was also feeling emotional.
Just from that faintly discernible aura, Gong mingze knew that he was no match for Jiang Feng.
On the other side.
When ning Meng saw Jiang Feng sitting cross-legged, she was about to bow to him when Gong mingze pulled her back.
“Don’t be rash!”
“Senior?”
this black-robed man is not the master of Yuan sect that you think he is. Don’t disturb him for your own sake. Otherwise, even I might not be able to save you. Gong mingze said with a serious expression.
If Jiang Feng really wanted to go berserk …
Not to mention saving Ning Zheng, even he himself might not be able to escape.
This was the foundation of a top sect.
The divine martial realm was considered an expert in the cultivation world, but it was still not enough in front of these sects.
Upon hearing this.
Ning Meng had no choice but to stop what she was doing. She looked at the black-robed man and saw that there was no one else at the mountain Gate. She didn’t know what to do.
It would be rude to shout directly.
He didn’t know how long he would have to wait.
Gong mingze could read ning Meng’s mind and said, “”Don’t worry, the people from Yuan sect will be here soon.”
The other sects had disciples guarding their mountain gates.
On the other hand, Yuan sect did not even have a single disciple to guard the gate.
He had wanted to say that Yuan Zong was too arrogant and did not even need to guard the mountain Gate.
However, when he saw Jiang Feng, Gong mingze stopped thinking about it.
That was true.
There was a celestial being sitting here, so why would there be any disciples? anyone who dared to barge in would be beaten to death if they were not celestial beings.
He didn’t hide his aura at the moment.
The experts of the sky origin sect would definitely sense the appearance of an unfamiliar divine martial realm cultivator.
It wouldn’t be long before someone came.
Sure enough.
Within a few breaths, a person came down from the cool mountain.
However …
After seeing the other party, Gong mingze’s expression changed slightly.
This was because he realized that he could not detect any clues as to how the other party had come or how he had appeared.
While Gong mingze was still in shock.
Ning Zheng also recognized Qin shujian.
He opened his mouth, but he suddenly didn’t know what to say.
He called me master the moment he opened his mouth?
It didn’t seem appropriate.
Ning Meng realized that she still did not know Qin shujian’s name. She did not even know how to address him.
On the other side.
Gong mingze cupped his hands and said with a serious expression, “”May I ask if your Excellency is sect master Qin?”
“Have you asked for guidance?”
Qin shujian’s gaze also fell on Gong mingze.
The other party’s aura was not weak either.
In the late stage of the divine martial realm, he was a famous powerhouse in the cultivation world.
However, compared to Gong mingze, he was more surprised that Ning Zheng could be escorted by a divine martial realm cultivator.
Gong mingze’s heart trembled when he heard this, but his attitude became much more respectful. “I’m gong mingze, a rogue cultivator. Greetings, sect master Qin!”
“Your Excellency is too polite!”
“Ning Zheng greets sect leader Qin!” Ning Meng immediately bowed as well.
At this moment, he had already understood the identity of the person who had given him the token.
Sect leader Qin!
Who else in the entire Yuan sect could be called the sect head?
Ning Zheng didn’t know much about the sky origin sect, but he had heard the name ‘Qin shujian’ more than ten times.
The reason for this was because Gong mingze would whisper a few words in his ear from time to time.
Over time.
He also knew that Grandmaster Qin of Yuan sect was a top expert in the cultivation world.
Qin shujian’s gaze also moved away from Gong mingze and landed on Ning Zheng. He nodded and chuckled. you’re not bad. I thought you wouldn’t come. I didn’t expect a mortal to come here. You’ve surprised me.
“Ahem, sect leader Qin, there’s something I’m not sure if I should say.” Gong mingze coughed and said.
I’m fine. Qin shujian smiled. please feel free to speak your mind.
Ning Zheng’s root bone is fixed now. If he steps into the cultivation world, it’s estimated that he won’t have much achievement.
Gong mingze said after a moment of silence.
“I’m not talented, but I happen to have a cultivation technique that is suitable for ning Meng’s physique. If she cultivates this cultivation technique, she will have a chance to reach the divine martial realm in the future.”
“Do you mean that you want to contribute this cultivation technique?”
Qin shujian retorted.
er … Gong mingze didn’t have time to say what he was going to say before he choked.
How was he supposed to answer?
His original intention had been to get Qin shujian to not accept Ning Zheng, but the other party had turned the tables on him.
Whether he nodded or shook his head, it would be a difficult answer.
Then, Gong mingze said awkwardly, “”This Gong’s cultivation method is only passed down from my master. Without master’s consent, it is really difficult to make the decision to pass it on.”
That’s right, without his master’s consent, he couldn’t make the decision to go out and practice.
As for his master …
…..
Gong mingze thought for a moment. The corpse of a divine martial realm cultivator shouldn’t have turned into bones so quickly.
Upon hearing this.
Qin shujian shook his head and laughed. He immediately put on a serious expression and said, “”Cultivation is all about luck. It’s Ning Zheng’s luck to be able to reach this point. As for the fixed root bone, so what?
There were many methods in the world that could cleanse one’s root bone.
Since Ning Zheng is my sect’s disciple, you don’t have to worry. Three years of true martial arts and ten years of comprehension are too far away.
In the sky origin sect, I can give him one year of the true martial state and three years of the spiritual martial state.”
These words were said.
Gong mingze’s expression became even more awkward.
It was obvious.
The words he had said to ning Meng earlier had been heard by her without missing a word.
This was like stealing and being caught by the person in question.
It was definitely awkward.
However, Gong mingze recovered quickly.
He had been in the cultivation world for thousands of years. What kind of embarrassing things had he not encountered? these were all trivial matters.
As for Ning Zheng …
He stood by the side and listened to Qin shujian’s words.
sect master! he immediately bowed. disciple Ning Yan greets the sect master!
“Get up!”
“Thank you, sect master!”
When he saw this.
“Since you’ve already joined the sky origin sect, I have nothing else to say,” Gong mingze said helplessly.”I still have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first.”
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Sir, ” Qin shujian said. why are you in such a hurry to leave? ”
“Is there anything else, sect leader Qin?”
“I can see that your strength is extraordinary. It would be a pity if you were to only be an itinerant cultivator. If you have any thoughts of entering my sect, I, Qin, am willing to take on the position of an elder.”
Qin shujian said.
He could tell that Gong mingze was very reluctant to part with ning Meng.
Other than that.
A late-stage divine martial realm wandering cultivator had moved his heart.
Now that sky origin sect was not weak, the only thing they lacked was a high-end combat force like Gong mingze.
A year later, when the restrictions of heaven and earth were lifted, Yuan sect would definitely be attacked.
Under such circumstances.
The stronger he was, the better.
Hearing this, Gong mingze hesitated for a moment before shaking his head and rejecting, “”I’m naturally used to being carefree and not suited to be bound by the sect’s rules. It seems that I’ve let down sect master Qin’s good intentions.”
you don’t have to reject me so quickly. You can rest in Liangshan city for a few days and think about it.
Qin shujian wasn’t in a hurry. He smiled and said, ” the Imperial court is about to break through the restrictions of heaven and earth. When the time comes, the eastern continent will link up with the other three major continents. It will definitely cause many twists and turns. It won’t be easy to stay out of trouble in this world of struggle.
If I’m not mistaken, you’re also a great cultivator who’s about to reach the peak of the divine martial realm.
However, there were only a few itinerant cultivators who were qualified to reach the Deva realm, and none of them succeeded.
If you join my sect, I can’t guarantee that you’ll be able to break through to the Deva realm, but I can still give you a chance.”
It was a chance to break through to the Deva realm.
Gong mingze’s expression kept changing.
He had to admit that Qin shujian’s last words had indeed moved him.
Everyone who entered the cultivation world hoped to break through to the celestial realm.
Even the wandering cultivators wanted to take this step.
However-
Breaking through to the Deva realm was simply too difficult.
In the thousands of years since the establishment of the great Zhao, there had been many Devas in the cultivation world, but none of the individual cultivators had broken through to the Deva realm.
In the end …
It was also because the inheritances of itinerant cultivators were uneven.
It was possible to cultivate to the divine martial realm, but it was far from the celestial realm.
Apart from this, the other reason was the lack of resources.
He had broken through to the Deva realm.
It was not enough to have cultivation techniques, but to have enough resources.
Just as Gong mingze was hesitating.
Qin shujian spoke again, ” you don’t have to be in a hurry to answer me. You can stay in Liangshan city for the time being. I’ll give you a month’s time. If you’ve made up your mind within this time, you can come back at any time.
“If that’s the case, this Gong will have to thank you!” Gong mingze took a deep breath and cupped his hands in thanks.
Qin shujian’s words had moved him. However, he had been an itinerant cultivator for more than 1000 years. He couldn’t make a decision immediately when he suddenly wanted to join a sect.
Since that was the case …
It would be better to think about it carefully.
On the other hand, ning Meng remained silent.
He couldn’t get a word in the conversation between Qin shujian and Gong mingze.
He had never heard of breaking the restrictions of heaven and earth and connecting the three continents.
These things.
It was only circulated in the cultivation world, and some low-level cultivators might not even know about it.
As for mortals like Ning Zheng, it was normal for them to not know.
After Gong mingze cupped his hands and left, Qin shujian brought Ning Zheng into the sect.
“To be honest, I really didn’t expect you to be able to reach the Liangshan spirit domain. It’s not easy for a mortal to cross the domain and reach here.”
Qin shujian walked in front while Ning Zheng followed behind him respectfully.
Upon hearing this.
“If it wasn’t for Elder Gong’s help, I wouldn’t have made it here,” he explained.
“It’s your fortune to have Gong mingze’s help.” Qin shujian smiled faintly and continued, ” after entering the cultivation world, in order to reach the end, other than relying on talent, luck is especially important.
“Lucky chance?”
“Not bad.” Qin shujian nodded and explained, “”For example, if you’re successful in your cultivation in the future and go out on a mission, you might be lucky enough to find the remains of a powerful cultivator’s immortal’s cave.
If you’re unlucky and encounter some powerful danger, even if you’re talented, there’s still a possibility of death.”
“Opportunity is also fate!”
don’t ever look down on the word ‘luck’. If you’re lucky, even a pig can fly if it’s standing in the wind.
on the contrary, if one’s luck is low, it’ll be difficult to walk to the end even if one is extremely talented.
Qin shujian used a more appropriate description.
In terms of luck.
Now that he had the Dharma Eye, he had more authority.
Back then, Lian guming had been a great Deva realm cultivator, but he had died on the spot after his luck had been reduced.
At this point.
Qin shujian stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked at Ning Zheng. His eyes had already turned into stars.
In an instant.
When ning Meng met Qin shujian’s eyes, she was instantly stunned.
Very quickly.
On the other hand, Qin shujian retracted his gaze. His eyes, which had originally been like stars, had once again turned into black and white pupils.
When he turned around again, ning Meng finally came back to her senses.
Ning Meng opened her mouth as she looked at Qin shujian’s back. However, she did not say anything.
What happened just now.
He also thought it was an illusion.
After all, how could a human’s eyes become like that?
“Good boy, your luck is really extraordinary.”
Qin shujian’s expression was calm as he continued to walk forward. However, he was truly shocked in his heart.
Yellow fate!
The world’s fate was respected by purple, and below it was green fate.
But that did not mean that purple luck was definitely stronger than cyan luck.
It was because purple represented the emperor’s Qi, so it was ranked before the green luck.
Strictly speaking.
The limit of luck that cultivators in the world could reach was green.
Below the green color was yellow.
Most of the commoners were grey mixed with white, and there were not many who were pure white.
To be able to possess a red fate, one was not weak.
The Lord of a city only had red fate.
However, in Qin shujian’s eyes, Ning Zheng’s fate was yellow, and the density of it was not bad at all.
The first time he met the other party, he had not yet cultivated the Dharma Eye and was unable to observe the strength of the other party’s luck.
Now that he had cultivated his Dharma Eye, he looked over again.
Only then did he know how extraordinary Ning Zheng’s luck was.
yellow destiny. As long as you don’t deliberately seek death, you will definitely have great achievements in your cultivation in the future.
I just don’t know if he had such luck in the first place, or if it was because he met me that his yellow luck was born.
Qin shujian’s thoughts spun.
Destiny was illusory and ever-changing. It was not static.
There were many factors that could affect the strength of one’s luck.
For example.
A person with gray destiny was suddenly valued by a Deva and accepted as a disciple.
However, that was due to the influence of the destiny of the Deva.
The other party’s luck would also advance accordingly.
For the same reason.
If a person’s luck wasn’t strong, but as his cultivation level grew higher, his luck would slowly increase.
However, if he wanted to cause the fate to transform, he had to have a high cultivation level.
In the case of Devas.
Almost all of the cultivators who had broken through to the Deva realm had either a rich yellow or green fate.
Such luck.
This meant that the Deva supremacy was feeding the cultivator’s own body, causing his luck to transform.
In the entire Yuan sect.
There were only a few yellow ones.
As for the thick yellow luck like Ning Zheng’s, there was not a single one.
Of course.
Qin shujian was the sect leader and a Deva realm great cultivator. He naturally had a green fate that no one else could compare to.
“I’ve picked it up this time.”
When he thought of this, he smiled faintly.
Geniuses were easy to find.
Most of the time, it was just a problem of root bone.
These things were just as Qin shujian had told Gong mingze. They could be improved with a little effort.
Such a method was a difficult thing for other sects.
However, with the foundations of a top sect, improving a person’s aptitude was not a big problem.
However, it was impossible to improve it on a large scale.
Ordinary disciples.
It was not worth the price.
However, Qin shujian did have some ideas about someone like Ning Zheng.
yellow destiny. He’ll at least be a divine martial expert in the future. He might even have the chance to break through to the celestial realm!
Those who were born with Azure luck were extremely rare.
Most of the Deva realm cultivators only had yellow luck.
It was only after he became a celestial that his luck broke through to the green Level.
In other words …
To a certain extent, Ning Zheng already had the capital of a celestial being.
Initially, Qin shujian had said that he would spend one year in the true martial realm and three years in the spiritual martial realm only to spite Gong mingze. He did not want that old fellow to belittle Yuan sect behind their backs and deliberately elevate his own status.
But now, it seemed like …
He had the confidence to do so.
Ning Zheng did not know what Qin shujian was thinking. He had suddenly stopped talking, so he could only follow him silently.
Along the way.
Along the way, there were also many sect disciples passing by.
When they saw Qin shujian, they couldn’t help but stop and bow. “Greetings, sect master!”
“Disciple greets sect master!”
“Sect master!”
Qin shujian let out a soft ‘uh-huh’ in response.
Ning Meng, who was following behind him, did not even dare to breathe.
Unlike Qin shujian, who had a reserved aura and looked like an ordinary person, these disciples all had an overbearing aura. They gave off an extremely oppressive feeling.
In comparison.
Ning Zheng was just a mortal, and in the face of such a tyrannical aura, he couldn’t help but feel his heart tremble.
However …
The more his heart trembled, the more excited he felt.
These sect disciples were so powerful, but they still had to bow respectfully when they encountered Qin shujian. One could imagine how powerful he was.
The fact that she was able to obtain this opportunity proved that her rejection of Gong mingze back then was not wrong.
However-
Ning Zheng wasn’t sure if Qin shujian would accept him as a disciple.
After the two of them were far away.
Only then did some disciples start discussing.
who is that person? for the sect master to personally bring him in, could he be someone of high status? ”
I don’t think so. He’s only dressed a little better than a beggar.
“You don’t say, even the beggars I’ve met were dressed much better than him.”
“The aura on his body is weak, and he doesn’t seem to have any cultivation. Could he be a mortal?”
Many people were confused.
Even with just a glance, they had already seen through Ning Zheng’s confidence.
However, the more it was like this, the more puzzled these people were.
If it was a powerful cultivator or someone with a noble status, then it was fine.
What qualifications did a mortal who looked like a beggar have to be personally led in by their sect master?
There were not many people who could receive such treatment.
Suddenly.
what do you think? ” one of the disciples said sourly, ” do you think the sect master has taken a fancy to him and is ready to take him in as a disciple? ”
“That’s impossible!”
“There are so many talented disciples in the sect, why would the sect master choose a mortal?”
“Yes, yes.”
As soon as these words were spoken, they were immediately opposed by a group of people.
However …
As time passed, the voices of opposition gradually died down.
“Cough, cough, do you think the sect master is really going to take in a disciple?” One of the disciples asked with uncertainty.
If he wasn’t taking in disciples.
Why would he be so nice to a mortal?
For a moment, the others also felt a little sour in their hearts.
There were at least 8000, if not 10000, disciples in the sect who wanted to become Qin shujian’s disciples.
He was the only Deva-level cultivator in the sect.
Everyone knew.
Once one entered the other party’s sect, they would be considered the first disciple of the sect. The resources and treatment that they would receive were needless to say.
Furthermore, his future achievements would definitely not be low.
In the cultivation world.
It was not as if there were no Deva realm cultivators taking in disciples. Every single one of them would at least reach the divine martial realm in the future, and it was even possible for them to break through to the Deva realm.
It could be said that …
Having a celestial as a master was a great opportunity in itself.
However, what they felt was a pity.
From the beginning to the end, Qin shujian did not show any signs of accepting a disciple.
Even if there were some extremely talented disciples, the other party did not express anything.
In this regard.
Many people thought that Qin shujian had no intention of taking in a disciple.
But now that they saw Ning Zheng, many of them overturned their original guesses.
“Accept disciple!”
Ji He’s expression darkened when he heard the words.
As an inner sect disciple with physical invulnerability, he was one of the top disciples in Yuan sect.
His goal had always been to become a disciple of Qin shujian.
However, after such a long time, there was no progress at all.
If no one could succeed, it would be fine. At most, Ji He would feel a little unwilling.
However, if someone else beat them to it, it would be a completely different story.
A wave of jealousy rose in his heart. Then, he looked at the people beside him and said coldly, “”Investigate this person’s background for me. I’d like to see just what kind of divine being is able to suppress me, Ji He.”
“Senior brother Ji …”
“Go!”
Ji He’s expression was gloomy as he shouted in a low voice.
Instantly.
The man didn’t dare to say anything more.
On the other hand, compared to the jealousy of the local disciples, the players were much better.
Although there were also people who were jealous of ning Meng.
However, to them, whether or not they acknowledged Qin shujian as their master was secondary. It was fine as long as they were given enough resources for the mission and were able to improve their cultivation.
After all, their home ground was not here, but in the real world.
