The ancestor is incompetent!

Chapter 11 Convocation
Li Yuan in the courtyard counted the bell, and when it stopped ringing after forty-nine, he heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not eighty-one, which would have been the fate of the sect.

Li Yuan closed the doors and windows, turned around and walked towards Fengxian Square. Not far away, many disciples performed light body skills to step on the mountains and forests, rushing towards the center of the mountain gate from all directions.

Without stopping, Li Yuan arrived at the square in less than an hour. He saw more than a hundred disciples. More disciples came behind him, and they were divided into four neat teams, with the deacon in front, the early stage in the back, Lingfeng on the left, and Qifeng on the right.

However, the number of deacon disciples was far less than that of initial disciples, and Li Yuanlai had arrived relatively early, so he immediately spotted Ruan Jinghu, who was standing at the front among the Lingfeng disciples.

At this moment, Ruan Jinghu is no longer the little disciple of the past. He is now the most popular senior brother in the sect and the most ruthless person ranked number one in the Baique Tower. Even Qi Feng's most outstanding junior Wang Lengchan is slightly inferior to him.

He was surrounded by five or six disciples, all of whom looked flattering and talked and laughed humorously. They often mentioned that Ruan Jinghu had suppressed Qi Feng, which boosted the morale of the Lingfeng disciples and they all called him "Big Brother".

Li Yuan was not moved by the current success of his former classmate, as he had earned it himself.

He stood silently at the back of the team of deacon disciples, scanning the disciples who were rushing over from all directions with his spiritual sense. After an hour, there were nearly four hundred people standing in Fengxian Square, and there were nearly a hundred deacon disciples.

However, many of them are quite old disciples, and there are many unknown disciples.

At noon, a crane flew over the square and let out a long cry, and all the disciples fell silent.

Then, more than ten elders came slowly, and Lingfeng Peak Master Helian Wei came riding a crane and landed in front of everyone.

All the disciples bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings to Peak Master, Elder!"

Helian Wei stood in front of all the elders and raised his hand and said, “Everyone, the Qi Ling Sect rules: When the bell rings forty-nine, it means death or approaching.

I called you here today for only one thing.

After many investigations, some disciples finally determined that a group of monsters had gathered somewhere in the Guangyuan Mountains. The number of monsters was so large that it had endangered the lives of many disciples who were traveling outside and the lives of many monks who were traveling back and forth.

This mountain is only two thousand miles away from our Qiling Sect, and is considered under our jurisdiction. Therefore, I have specially summoned you to gather here to fight the monster.

At that time, this peak master and ten elders will go together. The mountain gate needs disciples to guard it, but not too many people are needed.

Only 300 initial disciples and 50 deacon disciples are needed. When exorcising monsters, all spiritual objects, spiritual herbs, and even the corpses of monsters obtained belong to the person who obtained them, and do not need to be handed over to the mountain gate.

If you have anything useful for the mountain gate, you will be rewarded handsomely!
If you are interested, please light up your name on this spirit book with your identity token!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Helian Wei flicked his sleeves, and a scroll slowly spread out over the square. It was seventy or eighty feet long, visible to all the disciples.

Many of the disciples were eager to try after hearing this, but more of them found it abnormal.

Those who can cultivate immortality are definitely not fools. They all know that the monsters in Guangyuan Mountains are becoming increasingly scarce. If they were ordinary monster nests, there would be no need for such a big fuss.

It must be an extraordinary monster mountain and beast, for even the peak master who was in seclusion to break through the true cultivation had to come out of the mountain.

Some were cautious, some were radical, and many people who wanted to take a step further on the path took out their identity tokens and lit up their names.

Ruan Jinghu also took out the token and lit up his name, and Qi Hongzhi followed closely behind.

Li Yuan certainly wouldn't light up his own name. He just stood in the crowd and watched the movements on the stage silently.

As the names appeared one by one, Helian Wei on the stage looked unhappy.

Because there are too few people who volunteer to sign up.

He said with a dark face: "Elder Gu, there are more than 200 disciples who are willing to join the war in the early stage, but there are only a few people in their early twenties who are deacons. Especially Qi Feng, they are all like turtles. Do they really think that the mountain gate is a turtle shell?"

"Peak Master, calm down." Elder Gu said with a smile, "Let's add to our last suggestion."

"Well, you say it." Helian Wei nodded.

Then, Elder Gu stepped forward and said, "Everyone, if you are willing to participate in this battle, the monthly spiritual rice for the initial disciples will be doubled within a year! Afterwards, everyone will receive five spiritual stones regardless of how much effort they have contributed!

Deacon disciples, if you participate in this battle, your spiritual rice and spiritual stones will be doubled every month, and each person will be given an extra ten spiritual stones afterwards!"

As soon as these words came out, many disciples lit up their names one after another, like lights going off, and the list of 300 early-stage disciples was filled up in a short while.

But there is still a shortage of more than a dozen deacon disciples.

Helian Wei frowned and said, "We are still short of thirteen deacon disciples, so let's draw lots to decide."

He raised his hand, and thirteen white lights appeared. "The disciples who are randomly illuminated by these thirteen lights must participate in the battle and must not resist!"

After saying that, he raised his hand, and thirteen rays of light began to wander over the dim names of the deacons and disciples.

Li Yuan's heart tightened. He didn't know why, but the more he feared being picked out, the more a voice in his heart told him that it was him.

Helian Wei waited for three breaths on the high platform and said casually: "Sure!"

Suddenly, thirteen bright lights stopped on the thirteen dim names of the deacons and disciples.

Li Yuan looked up and saw his name, "Li Yuan", was lit up!
"I…"

The corner of Li Yuan's mouth twitched, and he felt darkness in front of his eyes. He sighed and accepted his fate.

Seeing this, the disciple beside him gloated and said, "Hahaha, Junior Brother, don't worry. With the Peak Master leading us, there won't be any danger."

Li Yuan glanced at the spiritual book, and it was obvious that the number of Qifeng disciples participating in the battle was far less than that of Lingfeng disciples. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that there were some problems with this matter, so not everyone would be blinded by the benefits.

Among those who practice Taoism, there are cautious ones, radical ones, those who hide their shortcomings, and those who are moderate, but there are no fools.

Seeing that everyone was present, Helian Wei continued, "The mountain gate is closed today. Not only is it forbidden to enter or leave the mountain gate, but also to leave the mountain with sound transmission notes.

Disciples not participating in the battle will leave immediately, and disciples participating in the battle will stand by."

As a result, the disciples who did not participate in the battle left one after another, and the spiritual books and magical instruments above their heads were also collected.

Helian Wei stretched out his hand and the token that appeared at the Deacons' Conference appeared in the air. He swept it towards the sky and it transformed into a huge light curtain that covered everything present. It was obviously a restriction to prevent sound and peeping.

He waved his sleeves, and a huge mountain appeared above everyone's heads, with the terrain of the mountains and rivers clearly visible.

"This is the place where we will kill the monsters this time, remember the terrain well.

Elder Gu, you lead your disciples to defend this place, and Elder Huang, you lead your disciples to attack in the northwest..."

The ten elders were dispersed to all directions of the entire mountain, and then each elder led five deacons, and each of the five deacons led six early disciples, forming a group of ten cultivators to kill demons and eliminate evil.

Li Yuan listened very carefully, fearing that he would miss any details and lose his life.

After Helian Wei finished explaining the distribution, he said again: "You have all read the true explanation of puppets and know how to control puppets. Each of the initial disciples will be given a black eagle puppet, and each of the deacon disciples will be given a giant puppet.

The Black Eagle puppet flew into the sky, and the Giant Wu puppet stayed on the ground, forming a puppet battle formation, waiting for the elders to give orders. Afterwards, except for the damage, all were returned to the mountain gate, and could not be hidden privately, otherwise they would be severely punished if they were found. Don't underestimate the elders' divine sense, if you hide any puppets privately, they will not miss a single one. If an initial disciple hides a puppet privately, the deacon disciple will also be punished, and the team the deacon disciple is in will also be punished..."

The more rules Helian Wei explained, the more Li Yuan felt sad. Such a thorough and detailed tactical arrangement showed how strong the enemy was.

At the end, Helian Wei threw the spirit book again, and the light on it moved and gradually divided into ten groups. The names of the ten elders were on the top, and then the five deacons were below, followed by the names of the six early monks under the names of each deacon's disciples.

After everyone went their separate ways and there was a moment of chaos, they formed ten groups.

At this time, Helian Wei ordered: "Release the Black Eagle Puppet!"

An elder immediately walked out and threw out ten storage bags. Suddenly the sky was full of black shadows. When he looked up, he saw black eagle-shaped puppets falling from the sky.

The three hundred early-stage disciples each took one, and in their hands it turned into a palm-sized wooden eagle like a building block. Each of them played with it in their hands with great joy.

Helian Wei said again: "Release the giant puppet!"

The two elders walked out and this time threw out more than twenty storage bags. Suddenly, fifty things like huge rocks fell down.

Li Yuan hurriedly used the object control technique and puppet manipulation technique to take over one of the pieces.

Looking at the ochre-colored round stone that was bigger than a watermelon, Li Yuan was a little puzzled. Is this the giant puppet?

Helian Wei on the stage said solemnly: "Don't underestimate the puppets in your hands. In the vast Guangyuan Mountains, only our Qiling Sect has this inheritance. Even though his Tongshan Wang Clan is known as the largest clan in the south, it is still our Qiling Clan that is most afraid.

A puppet is far more than a magic weapon or a magic talisman. The way of puppets is to control objects with oneself, turn objects into oneself, and take advantage of them. If the spiritual source is inexhaustible, then the power will be inexhaustible.

Elder Gu, give each of the initial disciples three Spirit Source Pearls, and each of the deacon disciples ten!"

After hearing what he said, Elder Gu hesitated for a moment but still said nothing. He just waved his hand, and nearly a thousand pearl-like things flew into the sky, and the disciples picked them up one after another.

Afterwards, the deacons and disciples also took ten pills each. No one dared to take more than that, after all, a dozen elders were standing in front watching.

"This Spirit Source Pearl is the secret of our Qi Ling Sect. The spiritual power contained in it is the source of the puppet's spiritual power. Just one pearl can enable an early stage puppet like the Black Eagle Puppet to fight for a whole day. It is comparable to the spiritual power of a mid-stage cultivator."

Elder Gu continued to explain: "There are five puppet inheritances in our sect. The Jiamu and Yimu puppets are both in the middle stage, and they are also very powerful against ordinary middle stage cultivators.

The Giant Puppet is also in the middle stage, but it is better in size, so it is more valuable than the previous two.

There are five types of fourth-order beast puppets, and the Black Eagle puppet is one of them, and its strength is only in the early stage. The strongest Black Chi Tiger is at the late stage, and it is difficult to make. There are less than ten of them in the mountain gate.

The last type is the psychic puppet passed down by ancestors. It has extremely high spirituality and even late-stage cultivators find it difficult to break its defense. It is only good at defense and not attack.

Those who have made outstanding contributions in this war can enter Qifeng Secret Hall and learn a puppet inheritance!
As long as you work hard for the mountain gate and learn a puppet inheritance, why worry about opponents of the same level? Why worry about not having spiritual resources for cultivation? ..."

The emotions of the cultivators were more or less aroused by Elder Gu, especially those early-stage disciples. As for the deacons, most of them remained silent.

By the time many matters were arranged, the sky was gradually getting dark, but Helian Wei did not delay and said directly: "Speed ​​is of the essence, set off immediately!"

Holding the decree in his hand, he solemnly said, "Disciple respectfully requests Xuanyuan to issue an order to allow the release of Baiqiao Secret Workshop!"

The next moment, black and white colors appeared on the sky, and a huge wooden boathouse slowly emerged above everyone's heads, and landed on the ground, shocking everyone so much that they retreated.

Helian Wei waved his hand and said without hesitation: "All disciples go to the secret workshop, and Elder Gu will take charge of the secret workshop.

The rest of the elders, follow me and explore the way ahead!
Set off! "

……

Li Yuan sat cross-legged inside the boat shop with his eyes closed. Behind him followed six early disciples, five men and one woman.

Among them, a dark-faced man whispered to the disciple beside him: "We are so unlucky. I heard that this deacon brother is the weakest in the mountain!"

"Ah? Will we be in danger?" the female disciple exclaimed.

Female cultivators are rare in the world of immortal cultivation, and there are few ugly ones among cultivators, so they are often sought after by low-level cultivators.

"Should we ask other deacons to help us?" a thin man suggested.

"If anything like this needs to be brought up, only Senior Brother Li Yuan can do it. How can we go?" The black-faced disciple declined again.

At this time, Li Yuan opened his eyes, looked at them, and said calmly: "My fellow apprentice brothers, instead of chatting, you might as well conserve your energy and prepare for the battle.

In the puppet army, don't expect others to help you. Just do your own job well."

As soon as he spoke, the six people shut up and said hurriedly, "Brother is right."

Even though Li Yuan is the weakest senior brother in the mountain gate, he is also a deacon disciple, and his status and strength are naturally higher than theirs.

A middle-aged early-stage cultivator in the team of six saw Li Yuan's calmness and seemed to be thinking about something.

The space inside the secret workshop is very large and can accommodate a full three hundred and fifty people. It does not seem crowded, but is a bit noisy.

Everyone sitting in it felt very stable. If not for the scenery and clouds outside the window, it would have felt like flat ground.

It only took one night for the flying boat to shake, and then the voice of Elder Gu was heard.

"Okay, let's get off the boat."

When the cultivators got out of the boat, they found themselves in front of a huge mountain. The Dharma ship behind them was also taken away by Elder Gu.

"Isn't this Chouyun Mountain?" A disciple who had traveled abroad recognized the place and exclaimed.

Elder Gu said sternly, "Everyone stand in line and don't make any noise."

The disciples stood in formation in a moment, and Elder Gu continued, "This mountain is called Sorrow Cloud Mountain. There were only some early monsters in the mountain, but a disciple died here. Later, the disciples who came to investigate came several times, but were all injured by the monsters.

So an elder personally investigated and found that there were groups of dark crows deep in the mountains. Nowadays, monsters are scarce in Guangyuan Mountains. If they can really capture the tens of thousands of monster crows in this cave, the value of the monster materials is inestimable. "

As soon as these words came out, all the cultivators were shocked. Tens of thousands? Tens of thousands of demon crows, could they kill them all?

"So this battle must focus on exterminating the demon crows! You must obey the orders of the elders. Anyone who disobeys the orders will be severely punished! As long as you work together and the peak master is there to support us, even ten thousand dark corpse crows will not be a problem. Do you remember this?"

"Yes!"

All the disciples responded one after another.
