Thinking of this, Daoyang felt a surge of joy.
This is a great opportunity for him to shine.
He had already reserved a top-quality cave abode for this junior brother, complete with numerous amenities. Wouldn't the other party remember his kindness then?
What kinds of cave abode are available to choose from?
Han Xuanji asked.
He was thinking of choosing a suitable place that would be more convenient for him to sign in, preferably one where he could sign in on the spot.
There are plenty.
As Daoyang spoke, he deftly pulled out a jade plate from his robes that was clearly of a much higher quality than the one he had shown to the ordinary disciples before.
The starlight on the jade plate outlines a detailed three-dimensional picture of Purple Firmament Peak.
"Junior Brother Han, look!"
Daoyang respectfully presented the jade plate to Han Xuanji, his fingers slid rapidly across the map, skipping over the dense clusters of light points on the outer perimeter and the mountainside, and pointing directly to the areas near the summit dojo where the Spiritual Qi energy was most concentrated, as well as some special areas.
"These are the cave abode that True Disciple should have."
He pointed to a cave abode marked " Star-Gathering Cave " and said:
"This is the ' Seven Stars Cave,' located where starlight converges, where Spiritual Qi surges like a tide. It even has its own small star-guiding platform, which can help one comprehend the Dao of Stars!"
He then pointed to a place shrouded in seven-colored light and said, "This is ' Radiant Clouds Valley,' and within the valley lies the ' Seven Radiant Clouds Spirit Spring.' The spring water contains the essence of seven kinds of radiant light, which, when used to irrigate spirit medicine, yields twice the results with half the effort, and can even temper the alchemical fire!"
"And then there's this Grand Mysterious Grotto-Heaven... Although it doesn't have the same variety of strange phenomena as the previous two, it's backed by the core of the main peak, and the immortal spiritual energy is incredibly pure and abundant. What's even more rare is its extreme tranquility. Within the cave heaven, there's a place where ancient pines whisper in the wind. It was once the cave heaven of an High Antiquity powerful being, and it's not too far from the ' Purple Empyrean Pill Court ' Daoist temple where the chief resides."
Senior Brother Daoyang spoke with great enthusiasm, recommending these top-tier cave abode, each one far surpassing the places previously shown to ordinary disciples.
These are truly wonderful places; even a True Disciple wouldn't give such a detailed introduction.
Han Xuanji was taken aback by this enthusiasm, wondering if it was really necessary for an ordinary True Disciple like himself to take it so seriously.
Although True Disciple are rare, those who serve as stewards in this place should not be of low status, and they should receive quite a few True Disciple on a daily basis.
Han Xuanji's success can only be attributed to his appointment by the Chief, perhaps due to a misunderstanding that he had a connection with the Chief.
This introduction left even the nearby Deacon Xuanming speechless with astonishment, not to mention the newly initiated disciples, whose eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Daoyang stared intently at Han Xuanji:
"Junior brother, which one have you taken a fancy to?"
"Just say the word, and we'll process it immediately."
Han Xuanji looked at the several top-tier cave abode on the jade plate, where Spiritual Qi soared into the sky and extraordinary phenomena appeared, and his heart was slightly stirred.
These places are nice, but some are too conspicuous.
How is this place?
Han Xuanji pointed to a place.
At the edge of the main peak, in a relatively secluded and tranquil place, is a spot marked " Myriad Phenomena Garden ".
"This Myriad Phenomena Garden is meant to Myriad Phenomena. Ordinary Spirit Vein have a single attribute, either leaning towards one of the five elements or emphasizing yin and yang."
This place possesses a ' Myriad Phenomena Spirit Vein,' which is like the Chaos chaos, naturally capable of evolving, absorbing, and nurturing various types of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi with completely different attributes. It is said to be the cave abode of an High Antiquity powerful being, which was moved here by a powerful being from our sect... It's quite a nice place indeed."
Senior Brother Daoyang was somewhat puzzled, but still offered an explanation.
This place is nice, but it seems to be somewhat inferior to the previous places.
Han Xuanji was overjoyed upon hearing this.
This place is perfect for his cultivation.
For many cultivators, the Myriad Phenomena Spirit Vein might be a side effect, but for him, it should greatly increase his cultivation speed and be of great help in comprehending the Three Thousand Great Daos.
Moreover, it might even be a place rich in Daoist wisdom.
Deacon Xuanming frowned slightly, looking at Han Xuanji with a puzzled expression.
In his opinion, choosing this place over a top-tier cave abode seemed like a waste.
It should be understood that, without the favor of the head monk, an ordinary True Disciple would not be able to choose cave abode so casually.
This genius's thoughts are indeed hard to fathom.
Han Xuanji said calmly, "This place is quiet and elegant, just what I like."
Senior Brother Daoyang opened his mouth, looking at Han Xuanji's indifferent expression, and wondered what he was imagining.
He slapped his forehead suddenly, and a smile spread across his face again, this time filled with admiring realization.
"Junior Brother's unwavering resolve and profound cultivation are far beyond Daoyang's reach."
As he spoke, he deftly manipulated the jade plate, illuminating the " Myriad Phenomena Garden " spot and marking it as belonging to Han Xuanji. At the same time, he swiftly produced a vibrant green token and presented it with both hands:
"Junior brother, this is the restriction token for ' Myriad Phenomena Garden,' keep it safe."
"It costs 10,000 Immortal Spirit Stone per year. New disciples can stay for free for a hundred years initially, and can then change their cave abode or renew their lease."
Ten thousand?
Han Xuanji took the token, its surface smooth and warm to the touch, and was slightly startled.
He only has a net worth of 100,000, so this fine cave abode is really not cheap.
However, considering the extraordinary nature of these cave abode, the price is quite cheap.
The salary of True Disciple is three thousand Immortal Spirit Stone a year, which is not even enough to pay rent.
This was probably done intentionally by the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace to prevent its disciples from becoming too complacent.
"I will have someone deliver this year's True Disciple and clothing."
Daoyang said.
He nodded slightly. "Thank you for your trouble, Senior Brother Daoyang."
"I dare not accept such praise!"
Senior Brother Daoyang was all smiles.
Seeing that Han Xuanji had finished making her selections, Xuanming cupped his hands and said:
"Junior Brother Han, now that the cave abode has been decided, I shall take my leave."
"Alright, thank you for your trouble, Senior Brother Xuanming."
Han Xuanji nodded and bowed.
Afterwards, Han Xuanji left the Scripture Transmission Hall, watched by Daoyang and Xuanming.
Daoyang let out a long sigh of relief, wiped away non-existent beads of sweat from his forehead, and secretly felt smug:
"This junior brother Han... although his choice of ' Myriad Phenomena Garden ' was somewhat unexpected, his demeanor and his indifference to top-tier resources are extraordinary!"
He must be someone with an incredibly powerful background; I've now accepted this favor.
While Myriad Phenomena Garden may be slightly less desirable than the central location at the summit, it is still a pleasant place.
He was happily making plans when a commotion suddenly arose outside the hall.
A young cultivator, dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, with True Disciple teachings hanging at his waist, and a handsome face with a hint of arrogance, strode into the hall with the gait of a dragon and the stride of a tiger, surrounded by several attendants.
The young man exuded an air of superiority with his every step, and his gaze swept over the newly initiated disciples who were still waiting in line in the hall with a hint of disdain.
