Chapter 434: The Alchemy Ceremony Begins
After returning to Green Ink Peak, Xu Changshou packed up simply and moved into the new dojo.
Then, he spent a day refining the Wuxue Spirit Pen.
After waiting for another two days, the Alchemy Ceremony officially began.
early morning.
when!
when!
when……
As the morning sun rose high, the sect's immortal bell rang faintly. The immortal bell rang nine times, waking up all the people in the Green Immortal Sect who were in seclusion or sleeping.
Everyone knows that today's immortal bell is rung for the newly promoted Golden Elixir master, Xu Changshou.
Soon, sword lights flashed across the sky above Green Ink Peak, and long sleeves fluttered.
Xu Changshou's Taoist temple was decorated with red and colorful decorations, and the sound of salutes could be heard.
Xu Changshou, wearing a bright red Taoist robe, stood in the first courtyard, welcoming guests from all directions.
Zhang Daocheng placed a big red table at the entrance to the first courtyard. He sat behind the table and was responsible for filling out the gift list.
Ouyang Qingze, Zhu Tongyou, Si Chenhui, Yaoqin, Shi Yuzhu and others were at the gate of the first courtyard to welcome the guests.
In addition, many smart, capable and good-looking disciples were arranged in the first and second courtyards to serve the guests.
Today's guests include Jindan cultivators and Foundation Establishment cultivators.
The two have different identities and definitely cannot sit at the same table.
Xu Changshou planned to arrange the foundation-building cultivators in the first courtyard, and the golden elixir cultivators in the flower hall of the second courtyard.
Outside the first courtyard was a huge martial arts training ground. At this moment, many people gathered here, most of them were servants from Green Ink Peak, and some were from other peaks who came to watch the fun.
Today is a big day for Green Ink Peak. All the menial disciples will receive their salaries and have a day off.
At this time, Su Mo, Jiang Xiaochuan, Han Zong, Shi Wantong, and Zhang Feixian were all standing among the crowd in the martial arts arena.
The five of them held the invitations in their arms, each with an uneasy expression.
At this time, people had already started to enter the first courtyard. Without exception, all the visitors were foundation-building cultivators.
Talking and laughing are all building the foundation, and there is no need for chores when traveling.
Seeing this scene, Su Mo and others were a little confused.
Those foundation-building monks who seemed high and mighty in their eyes, now entered Xu Changshou's yard with humble smiles on their faces.
"Hahaha, Uncle Xu, long time no see."
"Congratulations, Uncle Xu."
"Congratulations to Master Xu on his great achievement in alchemy."
In the courtyard, the respectful voices of the foundation-building monks were heard.
Jiang Xiaochuan shrank his head and said, "Junior Brother Su, why don't we not go in? We are all great cultivators in the foundation building stage. It would not be appropriate for us to go in."
"Yes!"
Han Zong swallowed his saliva and agreed, "We are of low status, how can we sit with a great cultivator who has established his foundation?"
Zhang Feixian's calves cramped. "I'm scared. It's okay if I don't go."
Su Mo frowned: "What are you afraid of? We have Master Xu's invitation. Master Xu personally invited us here. Who would dare to stop us?"
Shi Wantong touched the invitation in his arms and couldn't help but feel his back straightened. He said, "Junior Brother Su is right. We have the invitation, so we are qualified to go in. Master Xu invited us to attend his alchemy ceremony. He is giving us honor. If we don't go, Master Xu will definitely be angry."
Han Zong nodded, then looked at Su Mo and said, "Junior Brother Su, shall we go in now?"
Su Mo scratched his head and said unsurely, "No hurry, no hurry. Let's wait a little longer."
"Okay, wait a little longer."
Everyone nodded and waited eagerly in the crowd.
The reason they were waiting was to see if there were any other errand disciples going in.
If Xu Changshou had other friends in the Qi Refining realm, it wouldn't seem too abrupt if they entered together.
After all, if there were only a few Qi-refining cultivators in a courtyard full of Foundation Establishment cultivators, they would seem out of place.
"Congratulations, congratulations to Master Xu on achieving great success in the art of alchemy."
"Congratulations to Master Xu for successfully forming the elixir."
"congratulations……"
More and more foundation-building monks came in.
Every time someone comes, they will be led into the courtyard by Ouyang Qingze and others, and then go to Zhang Daocheng to pay their tribute and write a gift list.
Only after the gift list is written will the visitors pay their respects to Xu Changshou.
The accompanying gift for a foundation-building cultivator usually ranges from one hundred to ten thousand low-grade spirit stones.
As for how much one can give, it depends mainly on one's financial resources. There are also many foundation-building cultivators who want to come but cannot afford the membership fee.
Some powerful foundation-building cultivators like Miao Ke, Qian Yuanming, Shi Wenlu, etc. all took a medium-grade spirit stone.
Huang Xuanqi, Zhang Liren, and Qin Muqing all took one thousand low-grade spirit stones.
There were so many people coming, far exceeding Xu Changshou's expectations.
Xu Changshou originally thought that only some familiar people such as Huang Xuanqi, Zhang Liren, Qin Muqing, Miao Ke, Qian Yuanming, Shi Wenlu, etc. would come, and others might not come.
I didn't expect so many people to come. All those who had built their foundation in the same session as Li Linhao came. Even Zhang Deyang, who went to guard the Guning Tower, came as a gift. Although he didn't come in person, he asked someone to bring over a thousand low-grade spirit stones.
In addition, all the foundation-building cultivators who went to the Demon Fairy Corridor with Xu Changshou in the past are here too.
In addition, almost all those who had reached the great perfection of foundation building who had entered the Fire Spirit Secret Realm with Xu Changshou were present, and each of them had a medium-grade spirit stone.
In addition, there were also many foundation-building cultivators who came, who I had only met a few times and exchanged a few words with and were not very familiar with.
There were even some foundation-building cultivators that Xu Changshou had never seen before.
This was the first time Xu Changshou held a grand ceremony. When he was building his foundation before, there was no one above him, so no one held a grand ceremony for him to achieve enlightenment.
The world of cultivating immortals is a world that values human relationships and reciprocity.
Even though he received so many gifts today, sooner or later he will have to return them.
In the world of cultivating immortals, no matter who you are, you must hold at least one grand ceremony.
There are only two relatively important things. One is to lay the foundation, which is called the ceremony of enlightenment.
The other is the retirement ceremony, which is held when one retires from the military and returns to secular life.
Of course, forming a pill is also a kind of enlightenment ceremony, called the Dan Dao Ceremony, which is the Dan Dao Ceremony. There are very few people who can hold the Dan Dao Ceremony, so it cannot be considered a major event in the life of an ordinary cultivator.
Only the ceremonies of enlightenment and retirement are given great importance; even when one becomes a Taoist or a Taoist couple, there are no grand ceremonies.
One of the reasons why so many people came to participate in Xu Changshou's alchemy ceremony was that all of them would one day return to secular life. When they did, Xu Changshou had to return the favor. Even if people did not go, they had to give their share, no more and no less.
You have to pay back as much as others take, and you can only pay more, not less.
Of course, Xu Changshou didn't plan to take care of this matter personally, so he left it to his disciples to handle.
……
Whoosh!
A sword light came from far away and landed at the door of the first courtyard. Then, a beautiful woman jumped down from the flying sword.
Her arrival attracted a lot of attention.
"It's Shopkeeper Ye, Ye Shanhu from Wanbao Pavilion."
