Chapter 39: Idle Job, Qi Training Level
"It's done!"
Seeing that the name could be used, Dugu Ying slapped his thigh and laughed out loud, and everyone else also looked relieved.
Only Jiajing remained calm and composed.
If this name doesn't work, then change it. These are not big deals and are not worth his emotional upheaval.
As an emperor, and an emperor who controls his subjects with political tricks and is a sophisticated egoist, he knows better what he wants.
Emperors are always result-oriented in everything they do, and he is even worse!
At this time, Dugu Ying looked at Jiajing again, and said with a more respectful and serious tone: "The sect's elegant articles are up to you, sir."
A suitable sect name and a set of appropriate sect rules can save a new sect at least 100,000 taels.
This amount of money is not much in terms of the sect, but at this moment when the sect is being built, it is naturally good not to waste money.
"Of course," Jiajing nodded slightly and looked at Liu Quan, "But the clan's elegant seal may take some time."
Naturally, Jiajing didn't need too much time. Although he didn't remember all of the Nine Musical Instruments of the Ming Dynasty, it was just a matter of going back to take a look.
But this thing cannot be taken out all at once, otherwise it will inevitably arouse other people's suspicion, and Jiajing naturally would not do such a thing.
What he meant by saying this was also to ask Liu Quan how long before the deadline it would take?
There is basically no need to ask Dugu Ying about these matters, as Liu Quan is the one who takes care of everything these days.
Sure enough, everyone else also looked at Liu Quan, the military advisor and the future grand elder of the sect.
"The academy requires that the application be submitted before the beginning of autumn in the year of Yichou and before the beginning of the year of Renzi. Although there is a year and a half to go," Liu Quan pondered for a moment, "most new sects are established in no more than a month at the latest."
As Liu Quan spoke, there was a considerate look on his face.
"We have already purchased the sect's location, and the spirit vein has been unsealed. If it is left unattended for a long time, I'm afraid it will attract the covetousness of some immortal bandits and independent cultivators."
"Although no one dares to mess around with the academy, I am afraid that some desperate people will cause trouble for no reason."
“So, it should be done within a month at the latest.”
"Okay, it's settled. Next, let's talk about the sect..." Jiajing then learned from Dugu Ying about the sect's specific location and various matters within the sect.
As well as other important matters of the sect that the senior leaders will take over in the future.
The two brothers Dugu Xiong and Dugu Han will be the left and right protectors of the sect in the future, responsible for the sect’s security defense and protection of its spiritual veins.
After all, for a sect, spiritual veins are one of the most important things and are related to future development.
The Great Elder Liu Quan will be responsible for the recruitment and assessment of all disciples in the future.
The second elder, Song Xinchai, was originally the steward of the mountain stronghold. In addition, he had impressive alchemy skills, so he was responsible for managing all the logistics of the sect, distribution of resources, cultivation of spiritual fields, etc.
The third elder Liu Yuan will be mainly responsible for the sect’s future trade.
After all, Liu Yuan has a pretty good skill in making flying shuttles, and such talent is only found in large sects.
A flying shuttle. Even though Liu Yuan was much inferior to those top-notch people who came from famous schools, the flying shuttles he made were still worth selling. One shuttle was worth at least 30,000 taels of spiritual energy.
These will be the main source of income for the sect in the future.
As for Jiajing, his knowledge, conversation, and genius-level cultivation speed are all worthy of respect from everyone.
He looked like a well-read scholar, so Dugu Ying put him in charge of the sect's "Inheritance Pavilion".
In addition to staying in the inheritance pavilion and doing registration on a daily basis, he is also responsible for the enlightenment of disciples sent by families outside the sect.
It was a sinecure, and Jiajing was quite happy with it.
Moreover, in his opinion, this position has other important meanings. All children born in the family in the future will be enlightened by him, and they will become his disciples.
Jiajing firmly believed that these disciples would be the key to his future and his unshakable position in the sect!
When any force first begins, it is natural for them to be united, work together and strive to develop.
However, as the size increases and power develops, the interests involved will become more and more complicated, and sooner or later there will be factional differences.
It is also the inevitability of the development of any force or country. No force can escape this law.
It’s nothing, it’s just human nature.
Afterwards, after everyone agreed on some details of the sect, they left and returned to their residences. During this time, Jiajing obtained 100 taels of spiritual source from Dugu Ying, which would be used as resources for subsequent cultivation.
Considering that Jiajing's destiny might be extraordinary, Dugu Ying not only gave him Lingyuan, but also gave him a bottle of "Xiao Peiyuan Dan".
A kind of elixir used to consolidate cultivation. Of course, it is doomed to be called "small". Its effect is limited to the foundation-building stage.
After returning to his residence, Jiajing did not start practicing immediately, but took time to return to the Ming Dynasty.
Following the example of the Ming Dynasty's Nine-Music Movement, he spent a day adapting it into the sect's elegant movement, and then he started practicing again.
Time flies. A month has passed.
In Jiajing's residence, the room was filled with spiritual energy and his Taoist robes fluttered without wind.
"Wow!" As the spiritual energy suddenly spread out, the Taoist robe was blown away with a rustling sound and then calmed down. Jiajing slowly opened his eyes.
"The fourth level of Qi training." Jiajing frowned, somewhat dissatisfied with the speed of training.
The day before, he had already guided Qi into his body and broken through the first level of Qi training.
With one or two spiritual sources, in the Ming Dynasty where there was no spiritual energy, it took fifteen days, or half a month, to break through to the second level of Qi training.
But this time, it took a whole month, and the training environment was a world of immortal cultivation with abundant spiritual energy. The spiritual energy consumed was as much as twenty taels, but he only broke through one realm and reached the fourth level of Qi training.
According to his estimation, this time it was the 'Small Peiyuan Pill' that would help stabilize his realm, and it was also one hundred taels of spiritual source, so the resources were abundant.
In one month, you must at least break through to the fifth level of Qi training, or even the sixth level, to be considered qualified.
As a result, he broke through a new realm in just one month!
In Jiajing's opinion, the gap between them was somewhat too big.
But he was not an ordinary person after all. After some self-adjustment in his mind, he quickly regained his normal state of mind.
With an idea in his mind, he raised his hand to remove the restrictions around him. After closing the formation, Jiajing picked up a stack of papers beside him and went out.
What was recorded on this stack of papers was naturally his copied and adapted version of the Nine Musical Instruments of the Ming Dynasty.
"Sir, has the sect's elegant rules been compiled?" As soon as he walked out of the door, Liu Quan's voice came from the sky.
A ray of rainbow light fell, this time directly into the courtyard.
Liu Quan, holding hay in his mouth, without even cleaning his stubble and looking unkempt, jumped down from the black flying carpet.
"There are nine chapters in total," Jiajing handed the sect's elegant chapters in his hand to Liu Quan, and then sat down at the stone table in the yard.
"Nine chapters?!" When Liu Quan heard that Jiajing had prepared nine chapters of the sect's elegant chapters, he exclaimed and, without caring about anything else, he took the sect's elegant chapters in his hand and began to flip through them.
"The first one is 'Yan Jing Kai Yun Qu'?" Seeing the name of the first movement, Liu Quan thought of the eight words "Yan Jing Kai Yun, Du Sheng Sheng Zhu" that Jiajing recited that day.
These eight words are indeed at the beginning.
"The flame spirit brings good fortune, and the Holy Lord is born."
"The immortal light shines in the world, tracing back to the ancient times. The spiritual spring is clear, the treasure mountain is auspicious, all things are flourishing, the disciples are healthy, and the great wilderness is blessed."
"The miraculous medicines are precious, the elixirs are fragrant. The golden bells and jade chimes are filled with the sound of immortals. The mind is peaceful, the qi is refined and the spirit is transformed, and the yin and yang are harmonized. You will enjoy immortal blessings forever, the years are endless, and the world will last forever..."
As he watched, Liu Quan subconsciously followed along.
"The second chapter, "Purple Sky Condensation Song"."
"Purple air comes from the west, and immortals wander around. In the blessed land of heaven, clouds and mists fly. The mind wanders in the sky, and the heart travels to the vast wilderness... The auspicious mist is flying..."
"The third chapter is "Song of Jade Purity and Brightness".
The truth is clear and the wisdom is bright. ... The truth is clear and the wisdom is boundless. The sect is prosperous and the learning is spread widely..."
"The fourth chapter, 'Golden Light Suppresses the Evil Sound'..."
"The fifth chapter is "The Voice of the Gathering of the Wise in the Jade Pool"... The sixth chapter is "The Sound of the Abundant Fruits in the Spiritual Field"..."
"The ninth chapter, 'The Harmony of All Things', all things are harmonious, heaven and earth shine together... The foundation of the sect is as solid as a rock. ... The prosperity of the sect is shared by all living beings. Harmonious coexistence, heaven and earth prosper together..."
"Hiss!" After reading the sect's elegant chapters compiled by Jiajing, Liu Quan's eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief.
"Sir, these nine chapters of the sect are absolutely top-grade," Liu Quan praised generously, saying, "According to my estimation, this memorial, if put on the market, is worth at least several hundred thousand taels of spiritual energy!"
"If this memorial is successful, it will be no less impressive than those thousand-year-old and ten-thousand-year-old immortal sects..."
In response, Jiajing just smiled without commenting.
This statement is a bit exaggerated. The sects that have been around for thousands of years have sect rules that are definitely no worse than ours.
Although the Nine-Part Music of the Ming Dynasty is worthy of praise, the world of immortal cultivation on Arcturus is controlled by Confucianism. How many great Confucian immortal cultivators can be worse than the Ming Dynasty in terms of cultural background?
"Show it to the headmaster. If possible, submit the petition to the academy so that the sect can be established as soon as possible."
Jiajing said in a calm tone.
"Okay, I'll just..." Liu Quan suppressed his excitement and was about to leave, but the next moment his eyes suddenly froze as he looked at Jiajing.
"Middle stage of Qi training?!"
"..."
