Ugly Cultivation Notes

Chapter 120 Assignment: Yaoyue County
Since her cultivation broke through the eighth level of Qi training, the spiritual energy in the spiritual soil could no longer satisfy Xu Chunniang's daily practice, and its efficacy had even declined.

She tried to continue to use the soil moistening technique on the spiritual soil, but the spiritual energy in this batch of spiritual soil had already been saturated, and even the slightest bit of spiritual energy could not be absorbed any more.

Since the quality of the spiritual soil cannot be improved, we can only start with the quantity.

Enough quantitative changes can cause qualitative changes.

Xu Chunniang forged 30 yuan of spiritual soil in one go, coupled with the power of the top-grade spirit-gathering formation, she could barely maintain her previous cultivation progress.

In just seven and a half years, from the early stage of the eighth level of Qi training to the late stage, the distance from the breakthrough is only a hair.

She spent a lot of effort building these spiritual soils, so naturally they couldn't be wasted.

The spiritual energy in the mortal world is thin, so it is of great use to bring this batch of spiritual soil.

Xu Chunniang skillfully dug out the spiritual soil, neatly stored them in the storage bag.

After finishing these, she put away the top-grade spirit-gathering array and the top-grade concealment array.

After putting away the high-grade concealment array at the entrance of the cave, the cave mansion is directly exposed.

Although the location of the cave is underground and the entrance of the cave is extremely hidden, there is no guarantee that it will not be discovered by other disciples.

Xu Chunniang thought for a moment, took out the mid-grade concealment array disk that had been idle for a long time, and re-laid it at the entrance of the cave.

Although the effect of the middle-grade hidden formation is not as good as that of the high-grade hidden formation, it is worse than nothing. Moreover, this place is deserted, so it is really unlikely that there will be disciples coming here.

Three days later, Xu Chunniang arrived at the Commissioning Hall as scheduled.

All the disciples who have accepted the mission will be arranged by the sect to be stationed in the ordinary world today to carry out the mission for a period of ten years.

When Xu Chunniang arrived, almost all the other disciples were there.

Most of them have cultivation bases above the seventh level of qi training, and they all look very old.

There are even a few of them with wrinkled faces and white hair, and they can tell that their lifespan is not long.

A middle-aged man was full of sorrow, "I have been trapped in the sixth level of Qi training for more than ten years, and I am about to reach my sixtieth year, but I have no hope of breaking through the seventh level of Qi training. I want to practice in this life, and I have come to the end .

It's better to go to the mortal world to marry a wife and have children, maybe I can give birth to a child with extraordinary spiritual talent, and walk this path of practice for me again.

So I went to ask the steward and gave me a recommendation quota. "

When the other people heard the words, they all felt sorry for them.

A white-haired old woman sighed, "The road to Taoism is difficult. I have been practicing Taoism for [-] years. I am already [-] years old, but I have stopped at the ninth level of Qi training, and I have no hope of breaking through."

Those who choose to send missions are either middle-aged male cultivators who know that there is no hope of breaking through and give up early, or they are like this white-haired old woman who doesn't have much life left.

Xu Chunniang was in her twenties, standing among a group of people, she looked out of place.

The others only glanced at her, then looked away.

They have stayed in the outer sect for a long time, so they naturally know that such disciples who are sent abroad at such a young age often end up like this because they offended someone.

These people have lived a long time, and they are all human beings. They stand far away from Xu Chunniang, for fear of causing trouble to their upper body.

They have suffered enough, and they can no longer bear any retaliation.

Xu Chunniang was so happy, these people were old enough to be her elders.Even if she really talked to her, she didn't know what to say.

After waiting for a while, steward Huang, who entrusted the hall, arrived late.

She glanced at everyone, "Is everyone here? Then let's start the distribution directly."

"Guard Huang, my hometown is in Wule County, please arrange for me to go to Wule County to carry out the mission of guarding the sect."

Before Guanshi Huang could speak, the white-haired old woman said with a pleading look on her face, "I'm getting old, and I just want to return to my roots, so I ask Guanshi Huang to be more accommodating."

As soon as the white-haired old woman finished speaking, the others pleaded one after another.

"Guard Huang, my hometown is in Shaodong County. I haven't been back to my hometown for more than 80 years. Please arrange for me to go to Shaodong County."

"My lord, I'm already fifty-six, I don't know if my parents in my hometown, Gao Tang, are still alive..."

"quiet."

Guanshi Huang frowned slightly, "Did you accept the mission sent by the sect, or did you go home to visit relatives and ancestors?"

Everyone fell silent in an instant, not daring to speak anymore, for fear of offending the manager Huang.

Manager Huang's expression softened slightly, "The sect has already made arrangements for this mission, so how can we let you pick and choose."

After finishing speaking, she distributed the assigned garrison order and map to each disciple.

Holding the garrison order, everyone saw clearly the place where they were garrisoned, their faces were gloomy, but they heard Guanshi Huang say again.

"However, if you want to exchange, you can negotiate with each other right now, and then come to my side to register."

Their faces suddenly turned from sadness to joy, and they all thanked Guanshi Huang.

"The steward is kind and merciful, and will surely be able to break through the ninth level of Qi training as soon as possible and build that supreme foundation."

"Guan Huang has a kind heart, even the golden elixir has a chance."

Xu Chunniang put away the map and looked at the garrison order in her hand. The whole body of the token was blue.

On the front is an extremely elegant character "Zhu", with the word "Xiaoyao" and a small emblem of Tai Chi Yin Yang fish on the lower right.

This emblem represents Xiaoyaozong.

Xu Chunniang turned the token over, and on the back was written "Yaoyue" in large characters, corresponding to Yaoyue County, the capital of the Great Qin Kingdom.

She breathed a sigh of relief. Xujia Village belongs to Wuchang County under the Great Qin State, and it is not too far away from Yaoyue County by two counties.

Before Yao Yue took office as a garrison, it happened to be time to go home.

Xiaoyaozong has three countries under its jurisdiction. In addition to Daqin, there are Dazhou and Dachu.

Fortunately, this time, he was not assigned to Da Zhou or Da Chu.

Zhou and Chu are located to the west of Xiaoyaozong, while Qin State is due east, which is not at all along the way.

Although Guanshi Huang has something to say, he can go to register and exchange after private negotiation.

However, everyone else treats Xu Chunniang like a snake and scorpion, so no one is willing to switch with her.

Right now, it would be the best result to be directly assigned to the county town of the Great Qin Kingdom.

Xu Chunniang's expectation was right. Everyone else was negotiating to change the county they were assigned to, and the scene was very lively, but her place was the only one that no one cared about, as if she had been forgotten.

She didn't care too much, thinking that she would leave Xiaoyaozong soon and go home, she couldn't help but look forward to it.

I haven't been back in 17 years, and my parents are almost fifty. I don't know if they met each other. Do they still recognize Xu Chunniang, the third girl who left home since childhood?
Xu Chunniang smiled slightly, presumably she could recognize it.

Although the color of the birthmark on her face has faded a bit, the size and position have not changed. With this birthmark, the family will definitely not mistake it.

After Huang Guanshi registered all the transfers, he gave instructions to everyone.

"All lined up, ready to receive contribution points. After receiving the contribution points, you can leave the mountain and go to the county where you are stationed. You must arrive at the county where you are stationed within six months without delay."

The rewards for assignments are extremely generous, one hundred points a year, and a thousand contribution points after ten years.

Zongmen will distribute half first, and the remaining half will be distributed after completion.

However, it is very likely that these monks with few lifespans will never wait for the day when they return to the sect to hand in the mission.
