Li Er: I've become an inner disciple of the Jie Sect?

Inside a cave dwelling on Golden Turtle Island.

Li Er raised his head and sighed, putting down the jade scroll in his hand. He couldn't help but reflect, No matter what world I'm in, the ability to learn is always crucial.

Although his learning ability had indeed improved a lot after acquiring the Primordial Spirit, and his memory was impeccable, he had now memorized all the contents of these jade scrolls.

As for the content itself, he still needed to slowly analyze and understand it, because there were still certain limitations in his understanding.

Although he yearned to improve his strength, he couldn't rush things.

This was a characteristic of his personality: the more urgent the matter, the more cautious he became.

From these jade scrolls, he determined that this was just a third-rate sect, yet it boasted greatly, claiming to lead directly to the Sage realm.

But who didn't know that there were only six Sages in the Primordial World? There was a limit to bragging.

Moreover, to become a Sage, one needed the Primordial Violet Qi as a foundation stone to establish the Dao foundation.

This Primordial Violet Qi had long been distributed.

In the end, he chose three cultivation methods to practice: one called

Sword Sutra

, which was a method for cultivating the Sword Dao, seemingly the same as the Sword Dao that Pan Laosan was currently practicing, after all, he had witnessed its power with his own eyes.

Another was called

Supreme Emotionless Scripture

, which the introduction said was used to cultivate the spirit, allowing one to maintain a peaceful state at all times. This cultivation method was very much in line with his personality.

There was also the

Nine-Nine Mystic Art

, a body refining technique, claiming to allow one to achieve Sagehood through physical body alone.

It was a pity that it wasn't the

Eight-Nine Mystic Art

he had been longing for. He estimated that this

Nine-Nine Mystic Art

was just a high imitation version, and deliberately had one more number than the original, so fake it couldn't be faker.

As for the other alchemy scriptures and formations, although he had memorized them, he had not chosen to practice them for the time being.

He felt that formation cultivation was somewhat similar to the

Nine-Nine Mystic Art

, and planned to engrave divine patterns on his body in the future to comprehend formations, so he would not practice formations for now.

And alchemy required extreme concentration, so he planned to master the

Supreme Emotionless Scripture

first.

Moreover, alchemy required materials and resources to support it, which was not suitable for him now.

Soon, he determined what he should cultivate first in the future.

But the most important thing now was to find a way to join Jie Sect.

The hundreds of thousands of demons outside were a huge threat, and he could easily become food in their mouths if he wasn't careful.

Just then.

"Li Er! I'm coming in, okay?"

Li Er: ...

Bro! You've been dawdling at the entrance for a while, just be decisive... and come in.

"Brother Pan, how is it? Have you explored everything?" Li Er asked seriously, looking at Sect Master Tongtian with a smile on his face.

"Everyone is guessing that the Trial of Heart should open in the next few days, but there are many halls that cannot be entered, such as the Scripture Depository.

Li Er, have you guessed the reason?" Sect Master Tongtian said seriously, with expectation in his eyes, completely treating Li Er as an all-knowing person.

Li Er smiled slightly upon hearing this, thoroughly enjoying Sect Master Tongtian's attitude of inquiry.

After all, he had helped him so much, and now being able to do something useful for his Brother Pan, this feeling was very fulfilling.

Moreover, his guess about the situation gave him more confidence to survive in this world.

Coming to this kind of Primordial World, with no clue about anything, made him feel fear and extreme insecurity.

Since he had come to this fantasy-like Primordial World, he had to avoid those famous geniuses first.

Anyone who was famous in the Primordial World, he would avoid them all.

Finally, he would find a place to hide well, and live for a hundred or eighty years before talking about anything else.

After all, life is a hundred years, and he had to live to that age at least, he had to live long enough.

"That should be because after becoming a disciple of Jie Sect, you need some kind of token to enter.

I guess you also need to have contributions to go inside to study..."

Then, Li Er told Sect Master Tongtian the whole theory of sect contributions in the fantasy world, and also talked about some concepts related to economic operation.

Sect Master Tongtian was a Sage, and extracted from Li Er's words a set of rules that were very suitable for Jie Sect, and in more detail.

In order to avoid Li Er's suspicion, he made some changes to some rules, but the core content and ideas remained unchanged.

"Li Er, I'll pick you up tomorrow, let's go to become disciples together.

I'll continue to explore the situation." Sect Master Tongtian said confidently, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

He knew that this contribution system that Li Er gave him could save him a lot of thought.

After all, no sect in this era had such strict rules, which would create a template for the Primordial World.

Everyone was teaching disciples according to their own preferences, which was also the reason why his Second Brother Yuanshi Tianzun didn't approve of it.

Even the Demon Court in the sky now didn't have a complete management system, and still relied on management based on preferences, or management based on the bloodline of superiors, and the law of the jungle.

"Okay, be careful."

"Don't worry."

Inside Biyou Palace.

Sect Master Tongtian quickly organized the Jie Sect's rules, took out a piece of Nine Heavens Profound Iron he'd swiped from his eldest brother, and forged it into a stele. He then engraved the sect rules and contribution regulations onto it.

In an instant, a strand of Great Dao Merit Power descended from the heavens.

This strand of merit power split into two, with one part continuing to search for Li Er.

Sect Master Tongtian wore a look of annoyance. He hadn't realized that inscribing the sect rules on a Nine Heavens Profound Iron stele would earn merit. Why hadn't he used a supreme treasure to do it in the first place?

(Can't find the book title? Try searching for the author! Maybe it was just renamed!)

However, the strand of merit power that went to find Li Er returned to the Nine Heavens Profound Iron stele, instantly transforming it into a post-natal supreme treasure of merit.

"Second Brother, will you say I'm wasteful when you see this again?

Hehe~ He should be envious." Sect Master Tongtian infused his share of merit into the stele. After all, it was meant to suppress the sect's luck, and he had no use for it himself.

He wasn't like his eldest and second brothers, who both had supreme treasures to suppress their sects' luck.

Sect Master Tongtian casually tossed the stele onto the Biyou Palace plaza, instantly attracting countless demons to watch.

After reading it, some of them shook their heads helplessly and left, feeling that they couldn't abide by the rules and that the contribution system was unfair.

"Hmph~ Just like Li Er said, this system is to prevent those with ill intentions," Sect Master Tongtian said coldly, watching the departing demons.

The next day.

An authoritative voice echoed in the minds of everyone on Golden Turtle Island.

Countless demons rushed towards the Trial of Heart, all wanting to pass the trial first and become disciples of the Jie Sect, especially direct disciples.

They could receive teachings from a Sage at any time, and this Sage wasn't limited to Sect Master Tongtian. It also included the Grand Pure Saint and Yuanshi Tianzun, as these two were elders of the Jie Sect.

The key was that the Supreme Elder was Sage Hongjun!

That's right, this was what was stated on the sect rule stele. If you wanted to receive guidance from a Sage, you needed a certain number of contribution points.

Without a doubt, the Jie Sect would become the number one sect in the Primordial World in the future!

"Third Brother Pan, do you think I can pass?" Li Er asked worriedly, watching the demons rushing into the Trial of Heart.

Demons were constantly being thrown out, some vomiting blood, others simply fainting.

Those who could reach one-third of the way would become outer disciples.

Those who passed the Trial of Heart would await Sect Master Tongtian's selection.

Those who couldn't reach the designated position could choose to stay and become outer handyman disciples of the Jie Sect, with the opportunity to challenge the Trial of Heart every year.

Now, those who reached the corresponding position on the Trial of Heart would receive a Jie Sect token, becoming Jie Sect disciples.

Only those with a token could claim to be Jie Sect disciples.

"Yes, Li Er, you need to have confidence in yourself. See, the situation here is exactly as I said.

So this Trial of Heart is as easy as drinking water for you.

Li Er, what's your target position?" Sect Master Tongtian said confidently.

He had to be confident, because he controlled this Trial of Heart.

He needed to know Li Er's target position so he could make arrangements in advance.

To be honest, he didn't want Li Er to say he wanted to reach the top, because reaching the top meant there was a chance to become a direct disciple.

At that time, he would be exposed to the other Sages' sight, which was not the result he wanted.

"That position seems to be the position of an inner disciple, that's my goal.

What about you? Third Brother Pan, you have such good talent, you should be able to reach the top, right?" Li Er asked curiously.

"Definitely!"

Li Er was speechless.

For some reason, Pan Laosan was always so confident.

But thinking that he was a Sword Immortal, everything was clear.

A Sword Immortal was one who moved forward fearlessly.

"Alright, let's go!"

Li Er took the lead and walked over. Sect Master Tongtian followed beside him, to prevent those failing demons from harming him.

Soon, they arrived at the Trial of Heart.

Li Er gritted his teeth and stepped in.

He used too much force and almost lost his balance.

This? Where's the illusion?

There were no demons around, just a passageway of stairs, all he had to do was walk up.

Got it, this is? A cute little pig? The illusion I'm facing?

Li Er began to wonder after he steadied himself. Could this illusion be targeted?

Was he too weak, so the illusion was so weak?

Sect Master Tongtian watched Li Er stop in his tracks, stroking his chin as he muttered to himself, "This illusion shouldn't have any problems, right? There's almost nothing there, so a little pig shouldn't be a big deal, should it?

But why isn't he moving?"

Li Er thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so he started to walk forward.

After all, this was the Primordial World, and anything could happen.

A moment later.

Li Er looked at the token in his hand, stunned for a moment, with a sense of unreality.

It was a bronze token with the simple characters "Inner Sect" inscribed on it.

"I... I've become an inner sect disciple?"
