Cultivation begins with separation.

Chapter 13 School starts

January 1, 863rd year of Qiantian.

This day is the first day of school at Zijinshan University.

After several months of preparation, the campus of Purple Mountain University was finally completed.

On this day, Gu Jie also came to Zijin Mountain.

"How about coming here, let's do something together, brothers."

"Adong, to be honest, I envy you, but my family has already arranged a Taoist partner for me, so I won't be alone anymore."

"The Gu family is big and powerful, and the support you get won't be that great. Why stay in the family? Wouldn't it be more fun to go out and make a living?"

"But Yuan'er has been waiting for me for six years. I really can't bear to let her down."

"Foolish, a man of heaven should aim to become an immortal, how can you waste your time on love affairs?"

"Okay, Adong, I've made up my mind. I've already contacted a few classmates for you, namely Zhou Xiang, Chen Yu, and Dongfang Hong.

We originally contacted ten people, but after hearing that you had not formally established a junior Taoist temple, the remaining seven declined."

Hearing that Gu Jie only recruited three students, Yi Dong sighed and said:
“Brother, your Gu family is similar to my Yi family. The family relationships are complicated and they will not use their resources to support a modern cultivator. Even if you can become a foundation-building cultivator or a golden elixir cultivator, you will die in four or five hundred years. I really don’t want to see this.

To be honest, although the Yi family members on Zijin Mountain share the same blood with me, the brotherhood between you and me is totally incomparable to them.

If you change your mind, Purple Mountain will always be open to you."

Gu Jie was very moved.

"Needless to say, when you come to the county town, you must come to see me."

Until Gu Jie left.

Yi Dong put away his expression of brotherly love.

"Gu Jie is a poor student after all. Even with my support, he still failed to get into the upper-level Taoist academy."

This is also normal.

There are hundreds of assessments at the higher-level Taoist academies, and one assessment is nothing more than an elimination.

In Qingzhu Taoist Academy, there are only three to five students who can be admitted to the higher-level Taoist academy every year. It is normal for the entire class to be wiped out, and the total number of students in each class is about three to four thousand.

Without Gu Jie, Yi Dong has now cut off the source of knowledge from the Taoist temple.

Yi Hao is ready to enter the Taoist temple.

But how could Yi Dong possibly believe Yi Hao.

Fortunately, he has been promoted to the fourth level of Qi Refining and does not need to break the mirror for the time being.

Today's breakthrough is not the faster the better. In the middle stage of Qi Refining, it is normal for each level of breakthrough to pause for several decades.

Although there are hidden dangers from Yi Hao and the remnant soul, Yi Dong is not worried that they will pose a threat to him within a hundred or so years.

Modern practitioners can easily transform into ancient practitioners because the foundation of modern practitioners is relatively perfect.

However, it is extremely troublesome to convert ancient repairs into modern ones. It is not easy to repair a broken jar perfectly.

It is not easy for Yi Hao to become Jin Xiu.

Moreover, among cultivators of the same level, cultivation is never the decisive factor in terms of combat effectiveness; knowledge is.

In today's cultivation, within the same realm, what matters is not the level of cultivation. A cultivator in the early stage of the Great Dao Golden Elixir may not be stronger than one in the late stage of the Great Dao Golden Elixir.

In the Qi Refining period, the reason why the late Qi Refining period is stronger than the early Qi Refining period is not because of the cultivation, but because the late Qi Refining period has generally lived for hundreds of years and the time for knowledge accumulation is different.

So Yi Dong won't be too anxious.

At the opening ceremony, five hundred students with spiritual roots and five hundred ordinary students entered Purple Mountain College together.

At the opening ceremony, Yi Dong said many inspiring words.

He came from another world and had no deep-rooted understanding of the difference between immortals and mortals.

He also treats mortal children equally.

This is an era in which there are all kinds of magical instruments invented by modern cultivators that can be used by mortals, such as firearms, which have greatly narrowed the distance between mortals and cultivators.

Most of the children who enter school are six or seven years old. Children of this age can be easily aroused.

"Students, the primary school system is six years, this is stipulated by the Empire, but as long as you work hard, you can continue to study in Purple Mountain. If you don't work hard, you will be held back.

The future belongs to you, the power of the fairyland needs you!"

Yi Dong gave a passionate speech.

The core idea is that it will be difficult for them to leave the college after six years.

How could Yidong easily allow such skilled and cheap "workers" to continue their studies or graduate?

Therefore, Yidong established a strict system of repeating a grade.

According to the system, a student may repeat a grade for decades, get married and have children in elementary school, and it is normal for father and son to be classmates.

Of course, after Yi Dong's speech, the students were all excited, completely unaware of the dark future that Yi Dong painted for them.

Yi Dong simply divided the cultivators and mortal students into sports specialty classes and literature specialty classes.

The opening ceremony concluded successfully.

After school started, Yidong became busy.

Literature was not his forte, so he left the education of mortals to professional teachers. However, he had more ideas about immortal cultivators than many people.

Jin Xiu is basically a full-time professional, covering everything from planting, refining, formation, beast taming, etc.

Because Jin Xiu's research is all-encompassing.

However, none of the immortal cultivators at Zijin Mountain have natural spiritual roots, which means that these students cannot quickly establish spiritual power circuits in their bodies and change them at will.

Therefore, he began to develop various "specialized" skills.

Those who refine equipment traditionally construct the spiritual power circuit related to refining equipment, while those who refine pills construct it differently and will not easily change the spiritual power circuit.

Many of the spells of modern cultivators are basically not usable by ancient cultivators, because the spiritual power of ancient cultivators only flows through meridians, and there is no spiritual power circuit like modern cultivators. Therefore, many of the magic tools and formations of modern cultivators cannot be used by ancient cultivators, because they cannot use the related spells.

The current practice of modern exercises pursues perfection.

Because a lot of the magic knowledge that I'm cultivating now is learned by analogy, and I don't have enough knowledge, I can't even figure out how to construct the relevant spiritual power circuits.

By the way, there is no such profession as talisman master in this world.

From ancient times to the present, there has been no such thing as a talisman master.

There is no talisman in the world that can carry magic on any kind of paper.

There is a kind of magic medium among the current refining products.

It was made by a weapon refiner, and the whole thing looked like a panel full of machinery and technology. It could be said to be a disposable magic weapon and had nothing to do with talismans.

"Principal, this kind of thing doesn't match the core of today's cultivation method, right?"

Dongfanghong is a tall woman who was born into an aristocratic family in the county town. She failed to pass the entrance exam to the upper-level Taoist academy. If she returned to her family, not only would the family not provide her with a path to continue her current cultivation, but they would probably also use her as a tool for marriage and make her give birth to a large number of children.

In this era, people with natural spiritual roots are very popular candidates for Taoist companions.

It is not impossible to form a Taoist couple with the children of Zhouwang family.

But Dongfanghong was obviously not satisfied with the family's arrangement, so he came to Zijin Mountain, even though the reward offered by Zijin Mountain was not generous.

"You are right. This is just an incomplete method of cultivation. If you build a method along this route, you will not be able to cultivate a perfect physique.

However, you all know the nature of the students at Zijin Mountain. They all have mixed spiritual roots, and they cannot achieve any results by practicing according to the current cultivation methods handed down from the Immortal Kingdom.

Instead of doing this, it is better to let them practice this one-sided modern cultivation method. At least in this way, they can also use part of the modern cultivation magic. "

"But if you don't build a perfect physique, your life span won't increase significantly. In this case, why not practice the ancient cultivation techniques?"

Dongfanghong didn't understand what the point of cultivating such a defective product was.

Zhou Xiang and Chen Yu also spoke out to persuade them.

Zhou Xiang and Chen Yu were both from prominent families in Zhouzhou. Their plan to form a Taoist couple did not receive support from their families, so they ran away.

Yi Dong knew that Zijin Mountain was just their temporary place of stay, so he didn't think highly of these two people.

"Well, you will know later."

Yi Dong didn't want to explain too much.

Dongfanghong looked at the exercises one by one.

She originally didn't like Yi Dong, a classmate who dropped out of school, but now she has some respect for him.

There were various ingenious ideas for constructing spiritual power circuits in the exercises, some of which she could understand, but for others she had no idea what the principles were.

However, the overall practice can really allow cultivators to rely on this fixed spiritual power circuit to use some of their current magic spells.

To be honest, Dongfanghong believed that he could not create this kind of martial arts.

Next, not only Dongfanghong admired Yi Dong, but even Zhou Xiang and Chen Yu were also convinced by Yi Dong.

Because they followed Yi Dong to refine all kinds of strange magical weapons.

They had all looked at the resources for the magic weapon, but they were confused by the information. If the three of them were asked to refine the weapon, they would definitely end in failure.

From this, we can imagine that although Yi Dong was a student who dropped out halfway, his knowledge of modern studies far surpassed the other three. Therefore, they began to have more blind trust in Yi Dong's decisions.

During the refining process.

Yi Dong also had a general understanding of the three members of Dongfanghong.

Although Zhou Xiang and Chen Yu were from prominent families, they were just average Taoist academy graduates, not much better than they were before they gained wisdom.

Dongfanghong, on the other hand, is a woman with good comprehension. She can quickly learn and understand new knowledge.

If this woman was born in a prominent family and had strong family support during her six years in the Taoist academy, she might have had a good chance of being admitted to a higher-level Taoist academy.

With his superhuman understanding, it is no wonder that Dongfanghong is unwilling to give up Jinxiu's path.

For these three people, Yidong decided to train Dongfanghong to be his own agent.

Once the production line is established, let this woman gradually replace my job.

After all, he needs to keep improving on the path of cultivation today, so as to avoid being "returned as the king" by Yi Hao or the remnant soul in the future, and he will not have so much time and energy to manage the students.

Half a year passed.

Workshops were also established one after another.

Dozens of production lines basically drained all the spiritual stones that Yi Dong had.

At this time, the cultivators who enrolled in the school had basically built the relevant spiritual power circuits and were able to conduct internships on campus.
