Chapter 213 Lesson 1
Chapter 213 First Lesson
While Ju Yunhai was speaking, he took a sip himself and handed the gourd to Tian Lin.
Seeing the teasing in Ju Yunhai's eyes, Tian Lin smiled and raised his hand to take the wine handed to him by Ju Yunhai.
The wording of this immortal wine, which is displayed as 'Qingyun Wine', is an auxiliary medicinal wine for a technique called Qingyun.
Tian Lin didn't know what Qingyunshu was, but that didn't stop him from taking a big gulp.
When the wine entered his mouth, Tian Lin did not feel the sweetness or spicy taste. He just felt like he had inhaled a breath of mist, which made him feel like he was about to take off.
"Junior brother, you can't drink too much of this wine."
There was a hint of regret on Ju Yunhai's playful face, but then he became a little surprised.
After he took the wine gourd, he saw that Tian Lin looked normal, and couldn't help but praise: "Junior brother, your strength seems quite good, you can actually suppress the power of the wine.
You must know that if someone who has built a foundation drinks this wine, even those with the best alcohol tolerance will fall asleep immediately. "
As he spoke, he took Tian Lin towards the back mountain.
In the back mountain, apart from pavilions and towers, there are also densely packed caves.
Disciples of the Wendao Sect often come in and out of those caves.
The outer disciples who came in and out wore different attire.
Some of them recognized Ju Yunhai, but some seemed not to recognize Ju Yunhai.
"Because the outer disciples of the Daodao Sect choose to learn different magics, most of them live on the same peak but rarely meet each other.
Even if they took the same elective course, they were divided into four classes, A, B, C, and D, so they were not familiar with each other. "
Ju Yunhai looked at Tian Lin and said, "Junior brother, no matter which courses you choose, you must start from Class D. The treatment in Class D is very poor. You must work hard to practice and get good grades in the monthly exams. Only then will you have a chance to enter Class C.
If you can enter Class A one day, you will be able to receive personal instruction from the Yuanying elders."
According to Yunhai, all the instructors from Class B to Class D are elders who are at the Golden Core Realm.
"I don't know you, Brother Ju?"
"I am currently in Class B, and my electives are Divination, Alchemy, Equipment Refining, Talisman Making, and Mechanical Engineering."
Ju Yunhai said to Tian Lin: "Don't even think about divination. It would be best if Elder Yu comes back to teach you in person. But you must practice alchemy and refining.
In this world, whether it is the improvement of cultivation or the cultivation of supernatural powers, elixirs are needed to assist. If you can refine auxiliary elixirs yourself, why spend a lot of money to buy them from others?
The same is true for weapon refining, which is a discipline that can enhance one's ability to fight against the enemy."
Tian Lin nodded, and Ju Yunhai suddenly stopped in front of a cave.
The entrance of the cave was already overgrown with weeds, with only a sign hanging at the door with the words "Ding 160" written on it.
Ju Yunhai pointed at the cave and said, "Brother, stay here for now. I will get you a badge later."
Tian Lin saluted Ju Yunhai, and after watching Ju Yunhai leave, he took Yu'er and her sisters into the cave.
Contrary to Tian Lin's expectation, the cave was not small at all.
I saw four or five stone chambers carved out in the cave.
Those four or five stone chambers not only contained an alchemy room, but also a enlightenment room and a kitchen.
Yu'er glanced at the bedroom in the cave and said, "It looks like someone has lived here."
After she finished speaking, Ju Yunhai's voice rang out from the cave: "This is indeed the residence of a fellow apprentice, but he died some time ago, and this cave is now empty."
As he was speaking, Ju Yunhai, who had returned from his trip, had already entered the cave and handed the package in his hand to Tian Lin.
There were three jade plates pressed on the package.
Tian Lin picked up the jade plate at the top and touched it. It also said "Room 160 Ding" and it looked like a house number.
In addition, there are two other jade plates with the same shape, but they are obviously smaller.
"This jade token is for you, Junior Brother, to control the cave. The other two small jade tokens can be used for your sword to enter and exit the cave."
After he finished speaking, he took out a wooden card and handed it to Tian Lin: "This is your ID card, Junior Brother. You will need it when you enter and leave the sect in the future.
However, your studies are more important now. If it is not necessary, the elders will not allow you to abandon your studies and leave the sect."
Tian Lin put away the ID card and opened the package again.
There was a battle flag and an egg-sized bead in the package.
"These two flags will be placed at the entrance, and you can arrange the remaining forty-five flags as you wish.
This bead is the core of the formation. Once the core is broken, the formation will disappear, so Junior Brother must hide it well."
Tian Lin nodded and reached for the clothes in the package.
This needs no introduction, he knew that this was the Taoist robe of the Wendao Sect.
"There are more than a hundred schools of the Left Path, all of which are here. Junior brother, you can attend each of them in the next half month. But once you are selected, it cannot be changed in the future, and you need to take an evaluation every month.
So, be careful.”
After hearing what Ju Yunhai said, Tian Lin bowed solemnly to express his gratitude.
Ju Yunhai turned around again, looked at the Yu'er sisters and said:
"You are Junior Brother Tian's disciples, and the sect will give you spirit stones every month. But how many spirit stones the sect will give you depends on whether your master is a disciple of Class D or Class A.
Therefore, for your own future, you must take good care of Junior Brother Tian's food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and let him complete his studies with all his heart."
Sister Yu'er thanked them. After Ju Yunhai left, Cui'er said happily, "It is an immortal sect after all! Even servants like us can get spirit stones."
Yu'er glared at Cui'er and said, "Clean up the room first and put the bedding in place. Don't disturb the master." Cui'er took out the sword without any dissatisfaction, and went out of the cave to clean up the weeds outside the cave.
Tian Linze and Yu'er together inserted more than forty formation flags in each stone chamber, and left two formation flags at the entrance of the cave.
After finishing everything, he hid the eye of the formation in his bedroom.
As the formation was activated, the flags inside the cave, including those at the entrance, suddenly disappeared.
Tian Lin knew that this was a trick. In his true eyes, the more than forty flags were completely invisible.
"Among the five elective courses, I think formation learning is more suitable for me."
Yu'er heard this and said, "Master, are you planning to become a formation master? But I heard that formation masters are a side door among side doors, and they are not very helpful for cultivation."
Indeed, it is not as easy for a formation master to make money as it is for an alchemist or a weapon refiner.
Alchemists can not only make money, but also make their own auxiliary pills to help their own practice.
But it is different for formation masters. Apart from earning some hard-earned spirit stones by setting up formations for others, formation masters seem to be of little use.
"Let's wait and see. There are still more than ten days left. During these ten days, I will sit in on each of them one by one."
-
The Daoist sect does not mind disciples auditing classes, even if the classes they audit are not their majors.
The next morning, when the Taoist bell rang, Tian Lin followed many outer disciples out of the cave.
Most of those disciples were holding jade slips and running hurriedly towards their respective academies.
Tian Lin had visited Hulu Peak yesterday afternoon and knew that there were dozens of academies in the peak.
As far as he knew, among the 72 peaks of the Wendao Sect, except for a few dozen or so, each peak had at least dozens of academies.
Most of the courses in these academies actually overlap, but the teachers are different.
In addition to the teaching elders, those who teach will also include Class A disciples or inner sect disciples.
All in all, there are several thousand academies in the Daoist sect.
These academies are not only where the teaching elders give lectures, but also where the Class A disciples and inner disciples debate and expound their own "Taoism".
Tian Lin’s first class was at the Dingsi Academy in Hulufeng.
"The most important thing in refining weapons is not to identify the materials or control the temperature, but to identify the inscriptions. If you want to refine weapons, you must first start by understanding the 'inscriptions'."
Ju Yunhai, who was wearing a purple robe and had a casual attitude yesterday, has now changed into a blue Taoist robe and is standing on the podium with a serious face.
Below the podium, a dozen disciples of the Wendao Sect sat behind separate tables, staring intently at Ju Yunhai above them.
Ju Yunhai only glanced at Tian Lin and continued his lecture:
"The characters are unique to weapon refiners. They are easy to remember but difficult to write. What weapon refiners have to do is to engrave the characters on the material to give full play to the material's properties, and even stimulate the material to become a magical tool that can play a special role."
As he spoke, he suddenly picked up a piece of paper on the table.
"For example, the word 'li'."
He used his fingernails to carve words on the paper, and the paper, as thin as a cicada's wing, actually allowed him to write an inscription on it.
After successfully engraving the words, Ju Yunhai cut the piece of paper onto the bamboo slip beside him.
The piece of paper instantly cut the bamboo piece in half like a blade.
“Once an ordinary piece of paper has an inscription, its sharpness becomes very different.
Therefore, weapon refiners, like array masters, must first start by learning to read."
Ju Yunhai's class was about the "Tao" of weapon refiners.
According to him, heaven and earth are actually a magical instrument.
The top-level weapon refiners can control this "magic weapon" by observing it.
Controlling this magical weapon is equivalent to controlling the heaven and earth.
But Ju Yunhai's statement was quickly refuted by an old man, who walked in from outside and snorted coldly:
"The world is clearly a great formation, and this great formation controls life and death. Only the formation master can see through this great formation, use it, or even destroy it, and thereby destroy the world."
Needless to say, this old man must be a formation master.
But looking at the old man's attire, Tian Lin guessed that he was an instructor at the Jindan realm.
Unfortunately, Ju Yunhai was not practicing formations. Facing the sudden intruder, Ju Yunhai frowned and said:
"Elder You, I am the one giving the lecture today. If you want to debate, you should go find Elder Kong who taught me formations."
Elder You said angrily, "I just came back from Lao Kong. He was obsessed with refining weapons and magic, and he wouldn't listen to my wise words. In this case, I have no choice but to come to you to argue with him."
Everyone understood that Elder You had lost the debate with Elder Kong, so he came to debate with the half-baked Ju Yunhai.
But what if he wins the debate against Ju Yunhai?
"This old man's mind is confused! He wants to refute Ju Yunhai so as to strengthen his own mind."
Tian Lin looked at Elder You, feeling somewhat puzzled.
He personally felt that whether this world was a large formation or a magical weapon, what relationship did it have with the tiny living beings?
Whether it is the study of formations or the study of refining equipment, they are all unorthodox.
No matter whether this world is a large formation or a magical weapon, if one's cultivation has reached the utmost, one can break it with force.
