Chapter 151
The next stop was the Inner sect. I needed to know what the inner sect was, and how I would get my resources.
I was like everyone else. I needed the same resources to thrive with the other disciples. And now, as the winner of the Inner sect trial, I was going to get more than the others who joined with me.
I was at the border of the Inner sect. There was a clear barrier, and a single point of entry.
The deacon there looked at me and nodded.
“The fresh blood has finally arrived. I was waiting for you to come. It seemed like you were going to take forever.” he chuckled.
“The others have already come in?” I asked, surprised.
“Of course they did. While you were there, wasting your time loitering about, the other disciples already went in with their robes and have gotten their residences.” the deacon chuckled.
“Then I am afraid that I am going to have to trouble you to go through the introduction again. I am new to the sect, and unfortunately the last deacon has not been so kind to me. I do not understand how the sect works.” I sighed and looked at him with pleading eyes.
“Do not worry boy. The Inner sect and Outer sect are completely different. Every single disciple in the Inner sect is a gem that the sect wishes to polish. We will not treat you badly, as long as you remain filial.” the deacon smiled.
“And I will promise you that I shall remain filial to the sect.” I nodded.
“Well then, let us start with the resources. Those are the important part. That is why the Outer sect is nothing compared to the Inner sect. Every single Inner disciple has access to the seven grounds of Dao. These are havens to comprehend the dao. They are, forest of blades, Cliff of Unbreaking Winds, Thunder Valley, Garden of Iron Trees, Frozen Pond, Sword Mountain, and Sea of fire.” the deacon said.
“The thunder valley I have heard of before, but I was not fortunate enough to enter. What do I need to do to get in?” I asked.
“The contribution points. Do you think that the sect makes you work in vain? Why do you think that so many people went to the Pill towers in the twin cities? It takes ten contribution points to enter any of these grounds. And for the new Inner sect disciples, every one of them can visit one, and only one of these grounds for one time.” the deacon said.
“For one time? Is there any time limit?” I asked.
“Time limit? Let us see how you will last when the elements unleash their forces to batter you beyond your imagination.” the deacon chuckled.
“And deacon, what of the ranking? The elder mentioned that I was ranked one hundred. Does that give me any benefits?” I asked.
“Of course it does. Among the hundreds in the Inner sect, the top one hundred are allowed to enter two of these grounds per month. And the top twenty five are allowed to enter the havens without any restrictions. They are legendary after all.” the deacon said.
“I see. Are they existences in the Nascent Soul Realm?” I asked.
“Some things are best left to explore on your own. Now, let us continue.” the deacon quickly changed the topic, but I knew that he was hiding something.
“The top twenty five are probably at the Nascent Soul Realm, or at the peak of the Core Formation Stage.” I guessed.
“The resources that you get every month will be given at the start of the month. Luickily, even though the month has started a few days ago, you will still get your resources. As a person in the top one hundred, you will be given ten Core Guiding Pills. They can be used to supplement the Core and strengthen it. Few pills can truly increase the cultivation of a Core Formation Stage expert, and this is one of them.” the deacon said.
“Where can I get these resources, esteemed deacon?” I asked.
“You need to go to the Medicinal Hall. Don’t tell me that you don’t know that! You must have gone there for the resources in the Outer sect.” the deacon looked at me with black lines.
“Well…” I looked away.
“Impossible. I have never seen someone as wasteful as you.” the deacon shook his head.
“And where do I get the Inner sect robes, esteemed deacon?” I asked again.
“How do you not know this as well? You have received the robes for the Outer sect,” the deacon shook his head.
“…” I could not respond to this as well.
Shaking his head, the deacon gave me the instructions.
“Finally, I have one last question. When I became second in the trial to enter the sect, I was promised a treasure. But I still have not received it. Where can I receive the treasure, deacon?” I asked.
“This is obviously in the Weapons Pavilion. How do you not know anything of the sect? Just what hole did you sleep the last month that you were in the sect?” the deacon was getting irritated now.
“I was in an unfortunate incident and had to stay inside for the entire month. I could not even listen to the preaching of the elders.” I sighed and tried to keep the real story away from him. It was a secret that I was the sect leader’s disciple.
“I see. That is truly unfortunate. But do not worry. The elders care about the seeds in the Inner Sect. That is why, every week, one of the elders comes and gives a lecture in the Grand Dao Hall. Rarely, even Core Sect disciples come to listen to these preachings. You will benefit very much from those.” the deacon said.
“This has been very helpful, deacon.” I quickly bowed down to thank him.”
