Chapter 255 Great Development

As the agreed time gradually ran out, the two sides exchanged and negotiated many times, and finally at the fifth negotiation, Xuanzong and Chicheng Sword Sect reached an agreement. The Chicheng Sword Sect was merged into Xuanzong and became a branch under the five sects of Xuanzong.

In the end, he couldn’t bear to let go and didn’t join the Star Sword lineage.

The name of this branch was Chicheng. All the Chicheng disciples were dispersed, half of them stayed in Chicheng Peak, and the other half were dispersed and merged into the sect.

After an inventory of the original Chicheng Sword Sect’s treasury, most of it was left at Chicheng Peak, and only a few special treasures were handed over to Xuanzong.

In addition, copies of all the martial arts manuals of the Chicheng Sword Sect were made and handed over to Xuanzong.

From now on, the Chicheng lineage can no longer recruit disciples freely outside. They can only recruit disciples through the sect and then select their own disciples from among the new disciples.

Perhaps now the disciples and elders in Chicheng Peak still cherish the old Taoist heritage, but as new generations of disciples enter and grow up, both the techniques and cultivation resources are supplied by Xuanzong. Over time, the former Chicheng Sword Sect will gradually be forgotten.

After the incorporation of the Chicheng Sword Sect, the sect’s strength improved slightly, with the addition of a Chicheng Sword Master and a dozen Jindan sword cultivators.

Chicheng Sword Master is in the early stage of Nascent Soul cultivation, and is an old Nascent Soul. His lifespan is about the same as that of the Su family’s ancestor, and he only has one or two hundred years to live.

This is also one of the reasons why the Chicheng Sword Sect gave up on migration. The ancestor himself did not have a high level of cultivation, and his life span was coming to an end. If he went out to fight for the fourth-level spiritual vein, he would definitely have to fight hard, and it would be easy to use up the little life he had left.

Once the ancestor passed away and there was no sect headquarters, the Chicheng Sword Sect would definitely weaken and might even be removed from the list of Nascent Soul Sects.

After the Akagi Sword Sect was incorporated, Su Ze ordered all sects to speed up their migration.

At the same time, a large number of disciples were sent out to take over the spiritual veins, markets, various spiritual mines or resource areas left behind by the sects after their relocation.

At the same time, Su Ze personally wrote a letter to each of the four branches of the Su family, asking them very directly to give up the resource areas and markets that they had secretly occupied before.

Without caring about their reactions, he directly sent Su Qing, who had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, and Xuanyu Taoist Master Su Dingfang to supervise their withdrawal.

With a multi-pronged approach, in the second half of the seventh year after his return, the flying boat of the last Nascent Soul sect took off and sailed away from the Qianlong Mountains.

At this point, the entire Qianlong Mountains were completely occupied by Xuanzong, without any opponent.

Then, it was the sect’s stage of great development.

Take inventory of all territories, send out fairy messengers to guide them, and send out fairy messengers to search for them to the hundreds of mortal kingdoms, large and small, around the Qianlong Mountains to recruit new disciples.

After completely unifying the Qianlong Mountains, a comprehensive inventory of resources left behind by various sects was conducted, and it was found that there were a total of more than 10 billion mortals in the hundreds of surrounding mortal kingdoms, large and small. Every year, the various sects recruited tens of thousands of immortal seedlings from all over the country.

Tens of thousands a year, this number is a bit high.

But if they are scattered among a Shenhua sect and a dozen Yuanying sects, plus many small and medium-sized forces scattered outside, there will not be many left. One Yuanying sect will be enough to get one thousand.

It is worth mentioning that all the Yuanying sects in Qianlong Mountains were driven away, and those small and medium-sized forces were no exception.

Families can exist, but sects are not allowed to exist. No matter how small the sect is, it must leave the Qianlong Mountains.

Although families can exist, they are also subject to strict requirements and are not allowed to recruit disciples from outside. They are only allowed to train their own people.

The development of a sect could threaten Xuanzong, but a family can only recruit its own people, and the probability of a genius appearing is extremely low, which will not affect Xuanzong’s rule.

For this reason, Su Ze issued a very strict decree that any family that dared to recruit disciples from outside would be uprooted.

Correspondingly, if the family discovers high-quality fairy seedlings outside, they can recommend them to Xuanzong, and the sect will grant rewards according to the level of talent.

There are tens of thousands of new immortal seedlings every year, and most of them have ordinary talents and limited future prospects. It is difficult for them to build a foundation with limited resources.

But if combined with the almost endless spiritual fruits in Su Ze’s hands, the probability of building a foundation will be very high.

With sufficient resource supply, there is absolutely no problem in having five out of ten people build a foundation.

Taking into account the supply of resources and the size of the territory, Su Ze stipulated that the number of disciples to be recruited each year would be 20,000, and they would be uniformly trained in the main sect for five years before being transferred to various places.

He developed a special contribution mechanism, dividing all disciples into three levels according to their talents.

Gear 1 is the highest and gear 3 is the lowest.

Third-level disciples receive one spiritual fruit every year for a total of five years. Combined with their own Qi training, if they work a little hard, they will at least reach the late Qi training stage after five years.

Second-level disciples receive two spiritual fruits every year for a total of five years. Combined with their own practice, it will not be a problem for them to reach the perfection of Qi Refining with a little effort.

After five years, no matter what your cultivation level is, you will no longer be supplied with free spiritual fruits. You will be sent to serve in various parts of the sect and use your contributions to the sect to exchange for spiritual fruits or elixirs for cultivation.

As for the first-tier disciples, they are the most talented, have the highest expectations, and the requirements are naturally very strict.

Three spiritual fruits are given every year for a total of five years, and the foundation must be established within five years.

The first-tier disciples are specially recruited by the elders and big men in the sect, and they are the future backbone and core of the sect.

It is worth mentioning that not all disciples can stay in the sect forever.

All disciples who are unable to establish a foundation before the age of 60 will leave the sect and return home to start their own families.

If one cannot form the elixir before the age of 200, he or she can still leave the sect and go home to have children. After forming the elixir, there is no limit, and one can stay in the sect until death, or apply to leave the sect before the end of his or her life to have children.

Moreover, as dismissed disciples, if there are talented descendants, they can enter directly without having to attend the annual Immortal Guidance Conference.

He made a plan and had his subordinates execute it, while Su Ze continued to go into the wilderness to practice in seclusion, and by the way, he used the divine water of the cosmic light to ripen the innate purple mansion fairy fruit tree.

Now that the Qianlong Mountains have been unified and Xuanzong is back on track, it is time to start training a group of super talented disciples.

The innate purple mansion immortal fruit, after taking it, can grant one a lifespan of ten thousand years, condense a flawless immortal body, and greatly enhance one’s root bone talent.

The Immortal Body without Leaks is a super talent that is not inferior to any of the holy bodies, which is equivalent to an artificial super genius.

If a sect wants to develop, it must have super talented disciples.

However, only a portion of the first batch of immortal fruits can be used to train new disciples, and most of them still have to be used by the veterans.

The leaders of each branch in the sect must have a few, whether it is Song Wan, Song Jia, or Old Man Xingjian and so on. Although some of them are in the Nascent Soul stage and some are in the Divine Transformation stage, they have almost reached their limit at this stage. Too many resources are needed to go further.

If one could obtain a flawless immortal body, not to mention the hope of attaining the Void Refinement Stage, at least achieving the Perfect Spirit Transformation Stage would be no problem, regardless of talent.

In addition, my parents and grandfather must each have one.

His wife and two concubines would definitely want one each. Although Lin Suxin’s talent is not worse than that of an average saint now, who would dislike having better talent? What’s more, the immortal fruit can increase his lifespan by 10,000 years.

In addition, the core subordinates who followed him at the beginning, including Su He, Yu An, Xu Zhang, Sun Jing and others, all need one.

Their talents have almost reached their limit when they reach the Golden Core Perfection stage. It is very difficult to achieve Nascent Soul Transformation and the success rate is not high.

After taking the immortal fruit, you will obtain a perfect immortal body, and there won’t be too many problems before you achieve complete spiritual transformation.

As for refining the void, we will talk about it later.

At least for now he has no method that can help people achieve stable Void Refining, so he can only wait and see if he can get better treasures in the future.

After the final count, it turned out that these alone would require fifteen innate purple mansion immortal fruits.

A purple palace fairy fruit plant can produce 36 fruits at a time, with 21 extra.

Of these 21, 10 are used to reward the most outstanding disciples, and the remaining 11 are kept as reserves to be used to reward elders or disciples who have made great contributions to the sect.

As for the Su family in Yuzhong, there is nothing.

They have already separated, what does this have to do with them?
Even the relatives who have been allocated here have to make contributions in order to get it.

He has now given one each to his parents and grandfather, but not to his uncle or anyone else.

Of course, the above are all plans. The fifteen coins were indeed distributed early, but the ten coins to reward the disciples have not yet been distributed.

Su Ze planned to wait for a while, ten years after the complete unification of the Qianlong Mountains, when the number of accumulated disciples was large enough, and then hold a sect competition to select a few with good character to be his disciples, and then reward them all.

Now that he has achieved Nascent Soul stage, founded a school, and established a family, it is time to accept disciples.

Qiangang Peak, formerly the mountain gate of Qiangang Sect, is now the Qiangang Villa of Xuan Sect.

The other prefecture is equipped with a prefecture lord, two elders in power, ten ordinary elders, fifty deacons, and five to six thousand disciples. It governs the main peak of Qiangang Peak, all resource areas within a radius of 20,000 kilometers, and more than a dozen mortal countries of varying sizes.

Jinling Peak, formerly the mountain gate of Jinling Sect, is now the Jinling Villa of Xuan Sect.

The configuration of each palace is the same, with a palace lord, two elders in power, a number of ordinary elders and deacons, and a variable number of disciples, usually less than 10,000.

The current palace masters are all at the late or perfect Jindan stage, the elders are all at the Jindan stage, and even all the deacons are at the Jindan stage.

That is to say, there are at least seventy Jindan cultivators in any private palace.

There are nearly a thousand Jindan cultivators in the dozen or so vassal states combined. This was unimaginable during the time when the Dragon Taming Sect ruled. At that time, even the Dragon Taming Sect, a sect that had achieved the God Transformation, did not have a thousand Jindan cultivators.

With the massive amount of cultivation resources continuously flowing out of Su Ze’s hands, the strength of the entire Xuan Sect has been growing rapidly.

Not only is the number of foundation-building cultivators a bit exaggerated, but even the number of Jindan elders has increased significantly.

He not only has low-level spiritual fruits in his hands, but also a lot of spiritual fruits that can improve the cultivation level in the foundation-building stage. It can be said that before forming a pill, one can quickly improve the cultivation level by taking a large amount of spiritual fruits.

This is also the main reason why Xuanzong’s accumulated strength surpassed that of Yulongzong in just over a decade, because of the abundant resources.

Otherwise, with only a dozen fourth-level spirit veins and one fifth-level spirit vein in the Qianlong Mountains, how could it be possible to support so many foundation-building disciples?

In just twenty years of development, the entire sect has developed 14 separate prefectures in addition to the main peak, which are exactly the original dozen or so sects in the Qianlong Mountains. There are as few as five or six thousand disciples and as many as nearly ten thousand, totaling nearly one hundred thousand disciples.

Together with the main peak, Qianlong Peak, and the four surrounding directly affiliated fourth-order spiritual veins, there are more than 30,000 disciples in total.

All together, there are 130,000 disciples.
