The Sect's First Assembly

On this day, Lin Xiao summoned everyone in the sect's main hall to prepare for the sect's first general meeting.

Standing on the high platform of the sect's main hall, looking at the assembled crowd below—the demons, the souls, and even his father— Lin Xiao felt a tiny bit nervous.

He swallowed hard, took a deep breath, and then announced loudly to everyone:

"The first Lingxian Sect Tournament is now beginning!"

The crowd was puzzled and waited for him to continue.

"There are three main points to this conference," Lin Xiao said, holding up three fingers.

"The first thing is about Yigao and Jianghe He's upcoming trip."

As he spoke, he first took out the eleven peach wood swords he had made three days ago:

"These are the weapons our sect has provided to everyone so far."

He manipulated ten peach wood swords and presented them to the crowd.

Looking at the peach wood sword floating in front of them, everyone marveled at Lin Xiao's current high level of cultivation. They reached out and took the sword, only to find that as soon as they held it, they felt a surge of energy emanating from it! They were greatly surprised and examined the sword carefully.

Seeing that everyone else had one except for itself and the piece of black wood next to it, Xiaoluan protested unhappily:

"Hehehe! Me too! Me too!"

Lin Xiao looked at its short, fat chicken wings and said helplessly:

"You can't wield a sword with those wings, so what's the use of giving them to you?"

Xiaoluan looked down at her wings, then looked up at the nimble hands of the crowd holding sword hilts, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"I'll be just like them soon!"

Lin Xiao could only nod and smile:

"Alright, alright, I'll give you a sword when you've grown your hands."

Then he addressed the crowd:

"In consideration of the safety of Jianghe and Yigao while they are away from home, as well as the inconvenience they may encounter in their cultivation, each of them will be provided with an additional accessory that can conceal their cultivation level so that outsiders cannot tell that they are cultivators, and a small Spirit Gathering Formation that can be used for cultivation by only one person."

Since Jianghe is going there to open up new avenues of revenue for our sect, I've given him the money left over after we distributed everyone's salaries as start-up capital. It's not a lot, but it's all the money our sect currently has."

As they spoke, Lin Xiao presented two Peach Leaf Pendant and Peach Blossom Spirit Gathering Formation to Sun Yigao and Qin Jianghe, and then presented a bag of copper coins to Qin Jianghe.

After briefly explaining the uses of the Peach Blossom Spirit Gathering Formation and the Peach Leaf Pendant to the two of them, he cleared his throat and continued to everyone:

"This is the current situation. If any new members join our sect in the future, they will need to exchange contribution points to obtain these items."

"This is the second thing I want to talk about."

Contribution points are the points earned by each person based on their contributions to the sect. In the future, in our sect, in addition to the basic equipment, members will need to exchange points based on their contribution points.

Of course, if you take on your own apprentices in the future, what you want to give them will be unrelated to your contribution level.

At this point, Lin Xiao suddenly winked and chuckled at everyone, saying:

"Currently, in our sect, Fuzi is my only true disciple. Is there anyone else who wants to be my disciple? I have lots of good stuff!"

Lin Xiao's eyes first went to his father, but Lin Dayou, sitting below the stage, completely ignored the longing in his eyes and looked down at his peach wood sword.

Lin Xiao said this because he felt that he had only taught Fuzi and had seriously discussed the issue of the master-disciple relationship with Fuzi, and had not done so with anyone else. So he took this opportunity to clarify things so that everyone would not be confused about the relationship.

After all, if the sect really grows bigger and stronger in the future, these relationships won't be easy to mess up.

At this moment, Sun Yigao, who was sitting in the audience, suddenly spoke up:

"Apart from Senior Liao and Xiaoluan, all of us have learned our cultivation methods from you, so it wouldn't be wrong to say that we are all your disciples, would it?"

Upon hearing this, the crowd, momentarily at a loss for words, quickly nodded.

"Yigao is right, that's how it should be."

"Yes, yes, that's it."

Of course, Lin Dayou was not among those who nodded.

He felt a little awkward; how did he, the father, suddenly become his son's apprentice?

But now that everyone is so supportive, he wouldn't embarrass his son at this time. He thought to himself, "Hey, he's just an apprentice. Does he really think that just because he's an apprentice, this kid will dare to act arrogantly on his head?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao said somewhat embarrassedly:

"That's not entirely true... but since that's the case, I'll take the liberty of becoming your master. However, I won't accept disciples so easily anymore. But if you take a fancy to someone and want to take them as your disciple, that's your prerogative. I only require one thing: they must have good character. We don't want people with crooked minds. Just remember, those who aren't disciples of our sect cannot cultivate our sect's cultivation methods."

The audience listened attentively and took his words to heart, but they felt it was too early for them to take on apprentices.

After all, apart from Lin Xiao and Sun Yigao, how advanced are their cultivation levels?

Everyone was very self-aware and didn't think that taking on apprentices had anything to do with them now.

Of course, Xiaoluan and Liao Pantu are not included in this category.

Xiaoluan was already thinking about which wild pheasant from the back mountain she should take as her eldest disciple.

Liao Pantu also planned to ask Lin Xiao after the conference if he would be willing to accept the position of Sun Yigao master.

Lin Xiao still remembered the topic, and he continued:

"However, our sect currently only has the number of people here, so I plan to gradually improve the sect contribution points system later."

No one would disagree with that.

So Lin Xiao immediately said:

Finally, there's our sect's recent construction plan.

First, let me tell you something.

Generally speaking, there are four main auxiliary techniques in cultivating immortality: alchemy, weapon crafting, talisman making, and formation techniques. These four techniques are an indispensable part of the cultivation process.

Seeing the puzzled expressions on the faces of everyone in the audience except Liao Pantu, Lin Xiao patiently explained:

"Let me give you an example. Everyone knows about alchemy, right? I was saved because I learned how to make antidote pills from Senior Liao, thanks to Yigao. There are thousands of pills in the world, not just antidote pills. If everyone could make some kind of longevity pill for their elders, they might be able to live much longer."

The so-called "refining of tools" is, of course, not the Qi Refining we are Qi Refining Stage, but rather the tool itself. This refining of tools involves imbuing ordinary objects with spiritual energy, giving various items, tools, weapons, etc., the ability to withstand the Spiritual Power of cultivators, and thus unleashing greater power.

For example, if we refine the hoes we have at home, we might be able to obtain a spirit hoe! And this spirit hoe is different from our ordinary hoes. With a spirit hoe, you could hoe an acre of land in the blink of an eye!

After hearing Lin Xiao's example, the villagers of Xiushui Village were originally confused, suddenly understood.
