Searching for the best path, starting from Renjia Town

Chapter 80 Departure
After the ordination ceremony was over, Longhu Mountain provided a lunch, and the people from Maoshan and Gezhao Mountain went down the mountain.

"Congratulations, Master Li and Master Lu."

At the foot of the mountain, Uncle Jiu, Taoist Qianhe, and Aunt Zhe stopped and suddenly bowed to Li Kunshan and Lu Ming, performing the greeting as equals.

"Master, what are you doing?"

"Disciple Zhesha."

Li Kunshan was confused and Lu Ming was even more frightened, so they both quickly dodged away.

"Haha, as the saying goes, there are differences in the order in which people learn the Dao. Since you have been ordained, it is only natural for you to address me as Taoist Master."

Uncle Jiu smiled and continued to explain.

The ordination is divided into initial ordination, promotion ordination, additional ordination, promotion and further ordination, which are respectively the sixth or seventh grade, fourth or fifth grade, third grade, second grade and first grade priesthood.

Those below the fifth rank are called immortal officials, and those above the fifth rank are called immortal ministers.

But generally speaking, those who are initially granted the title of Taoist priest are called Taoist priests, those who are promoted to Dharma masters are called Dharma masters, those who are given high-level skills are called immortals, and those who are given the title of Heavenly Master after adding the knowledge of the Qing Dadong Sutra are called Heavenly Masters!

After being taught by Li Kunshan and Lu Mingchu, they were indeed qualified to be called Taoist priests.

In fact, Taoist Qianhe, Taoist Simu, and Zhe Gu were all still at the beginner level. In terms of the level of ordination, they were all at the same level.

Only Uncle Nine is the strongest, he was just promoted last year and is called a magician.

"That being said, it's not bad."

Li Kunshan and Lu Ming suddenly realized, and then both looked happy.

From now on, they are also Taoist priests.

"Don't be happy too early."

At this moment, Shi Jian and Shi Shaojian passed by, glanced at the two of them, and his face was gloomy.

"Don't think that just because you were lucky enough to receive the ordination, you're truly remarkable. Without your teachers' protection, you're out there on your own. The world is treacherous these days, and you're still very young."

"Don't worry about that, Senior Brother. We will teach you."

Uncle Jiu spoke, stood in front of Li Kunshan, and looked directly at Shi Jian.

"Humph."

Shi Jian snorted coldly, without saying anything else, and left with a flick of his sleeves.

"嘁~!"

It was not until Shi Jian walked away that Li Kunshan curled his lips and snorted in dissatisfaction.

I didn't know his depth before, but now I know that Shi Jian, who has been granted the power, has a cultivation level comparable to that of a Qi Refiner. Not to mention the younger generation like them, even if they add Uncle Jiu, Taoist Qianhe and others, they may not be his opponents.

"Yes, Master."

Coming back to his senses, Li Kunshan hurriedly asked.

"What did Shi Jian mean by going out on his own just now?"

"You have already been ordained, and it is time for you to go out as a disciple."

"What? Departure!"

Li Kunshan and Lu Ming's eyes widened instantly, both of them looked surprised.

Then they looked at their respective masters, their faces full of anxiety again.

"My disciple's cultivation is so low, how can I become a disciple?"

"You have already been ordained, and your cultivation level is the same as Master's, so how can you be considered insignificant?"

Taoist Qianhe smiled and continued.

"Besides, if you keep following Master, how can you earn Dao Merit?"

"Tao Gong?"

Li Kunshan and Lu Ming were stunned again.

what is that.

"The so-called Dao Gong refers to your achievements as a disciple of Zhengyi."

Uncle Jiu took over and explained further.

After the initial award, there are promotions, additional awards, etc. Who can be promoted and why others cannot? There must be an evaluation standard, not just looking at years of experience. This standard is Taoist merit.

The so-called Taoist merit refers to the achievements made by a disciple of Zhengyi and an envoy of the Heavenly Court in the mortal world.

First of all, slaying demons and benefiting the people is the most basic thing. As long as you do it, you will accumulate Taoist merit.

In addition, according to the different priesthoods and responsibilities, if one does one's job well, one will also accumulate merit.

When one's merits are complete, one will be promoted.

This is also why, among Uncle Jiu and Taoist Qianhe, who are brothers of the same generation, only Uncle Jiu was promoted. This is because Uncle Jiu has the most Taoist skills and meets the requirements for promotion.

Li Kunshan and Lu Ming had already been granted the Dao talisman, and would of course also receive upgrades and additional grants. If they continued to follow their master, most of the credit would go to the master, so when would they be able to accumulate enough Dao talismanic power for the upgrade?

So, for their own sake, it's time for them to go out on a mission.

"so."

After listening, Li Kunshan and Lu Ming nodded again, as if thinking about something.

After a moment, Li Kunshan spoke, somewhat worriedly. "But I still have a lot to learn. If I start out now, as Shi Jian said, I'm afraid I'm too young to be a disciple."

"Don't worry about that. Even though you've graduated, you're still my apprentice. Of course, you can continue learning from me."

"That's good."

Hearing that he could continue to learn magic from Uncle Jiu, Li Kunshan breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he has external cheats and his strength is far beyond his peers, he has been practicing for too short a time and knows too few skills and spells.

The magical powers of Taoism are as vast as the sea of ​​sand, and he has only taken one grain of it.

"Speaking of which, now it's time to teach you how to set up the altar and perform rituals."

Taoist Qianhe said this and looked at Uncle Jiu.

The sun was already setting when the group left Longhu Mountain. Before sunset, they arrived at a small town about ten miles away and found an inn to stay in.

In the evening, Uncle Jiu and Taoist Qianhe called Li Kunshan and Lu Ming into their respective rooms.

"Tonight, I will teach you the rituals and precautions required for opening the altar."

Uncle Jiu took out various magical instruments and placed them on the table with a serious expression.

Li Kunshan nodded, also very seriously.

Only by setting up an altar can one communicate with heaven and command the heavenly soldiers and generals in the talisman.

Just like before at sea, Uncle Jiu performed a ritual, which enabled him to command the ghosts and summon a large number of water ghosts to create huge waves and offset the tornado.

Li Kunshan has now been listed in the Heavenly Court, a sixth-rank divine position, and can command some heavenly soldiers and minor officials.

Therefore, how to set up an altar and perform rituals was exactly what he urgently needed to learn.

Next, Uncle Jiu talked and gave a general demonstration while Li Kunshan listened and took notes.

As a time traveler who had received modern education, Li Kunshan had a good ability to understand and had grasped the general idea in just two hours.

"very good."

Uncle Jiu wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded with satisfaction.

After a slight pause, he continued.

"You are about to become a disciple. I will teach you two more spells."

"Thank you Master!"

"You keep an eye on it."

Uncle Jiu picked up the red brush and started drawing on the yellow paper.

Li Kunshan immediately recognized that one was a soul-suppressing talisman and the other was a corpse-suppressing talisman!
The soul-soothing talisman is used to exorcise ghosts, and the corpse-soothing talisman is used to subdue corpses. One is pasted on the ghost-sealing altar, and the other is pasted on the forehead of the zombie.

Then, Uncle Jiu began to explain in detail, teaching Li Kunshan everything from the required materials to the mantras when drawing talismans.

【Learn the Soul-Calming Talisman! 】

【Learn the talisman to suppress corpses! 】

Two hours later, the system prompt sounded.

Li Kunshan showed a look of joy, as he finally mastered two more talismans.

[Detected that the host has learned the Puppet Talisman and the Corpse Suppression Talisman at the same time, and can comprehend the Corpse Control Talisman. Yes/No! ]

At this moment, what Li Kunshan didn't expect was that another system prompt suddenly appeared.

"Understand!"

Li Kunshan blinked his eyes and asked, "Is this even worth considering?"

[Successfully comprehended the Corpse Control Talisman! ]

As the command was given, the system prompt sounded again.

At the same time, Li Kunshan's personal page changed again.
