For Qin Fengming, the place where news flows best is the place where he must come to eat every day. On this day, Qin Fengming woke up early as usual and went to the kitchen. At this time, several disciples of the Weapon Refining Hall were eating. Qin Fengming is not the only three disciples in the Weapon Refining Hall. In addition to the three who help in the Weapon Refining Room, there are also more than twenty disciples who are responsible for inspection, duty, cleaning, catering and other chores in the Weapon Refining Hall. Just as Qin Fengming was sitting eating, he suddenly heard a disciple behind him say: "Senior Brother Wang, have you heard that in three months, our sect will hold a selection competition among low-level disciples. Listen. He said that the rewards for this competition are very generous.” "Of course I know about this. I heard that in this selection, the shortlisted disciples will not only get a top-quality magic weapon, but also a foundation-building pill, which is very important for breaking through the peak of the Qi Gathering stage and entering the foundation-building stage. Effective elixir." Another disciple said, with a hint of envy in his tone. "However, I don't have the slightest chance in this competition. If Senior Brother Wang works hard, there is still hope." "Haha, what hope can I have? Although I am at the eighth level, but if I have to compete with my brothers at the ninth level and the Dzogchen realm, I have no hope of winning at all. It's better for us not to have any illusions. " Qin Fengming was stunned when he heard this, what kind of selection? And the Foundation Establishment Pill? He had never heard of any recent choices within the sect, so he turned around and faced the two of them. He knew both of these two people, so he laughed and said: "Senior Brother Wang, I don't know what the selection you just mentioned is about? Can you tell me?" "Haha, it turns out to be Junior Brother Qin. I don't blame you for not knowing. You have been either practicing or helping Uncle Fei in the refining room, so there are many things in the sect that are not as well-informed as me. This is not a secret. Let me tell my junior brother." As the two disciples complemented each other, Qin Fengming finally listened carefully and understood what the so-called competition they just said was.
When it comes to this competition and selection, we must start with the world of immortal cultivation in Daliang Kingdom. There are three first-class sects in the entire Daliang Kingdom cultivation world, namely: Zhui Feng Valley, Wangting Mountain, and Xiaoyao Sect. In addition to these three first-class sects, there are five other sects whose strength should not be underestimated. That is: Luoxia Sect, Crouching Tiger Mountain, Expelling Spirit Sect, Blood Refining Sect and Taixu Sect. It can be said that the entire Daliang Kingdom is controlled by these eight sects. When it comes to cultivating immortals, it is inseparable from spiritual stones. The production of spiritual stones must come from spiritual stone mines. There are nineteen large spiritual stone mines in the entire Daliang Kingdom. The various spiritual stones produced by these nineteen mines, both in quantity and quality, are All are comparable. Of course, in addition to these nineteen large spirit stone mines, there are also many small spirit stone mines. The quality and output of the spirit stones produced by those small spirit stone mines are not the same as those of the large spirit stone mines. . These small spirit stone mines are shared by many immortal cultivating families and various sects. Two or three thousand years ago, over the ownership of the Lingshi Mine, the entire Daliang Kingdom's immortal world had a great war, resulting in numerous casualties among the monks. As the war continued, the senior monks from each sect finally realized that fighting each other was not the way to solve the matter. So we sat down and discussed it, and finally came up with a more feasible solution. That is, put three of the sects with the Infant Transformation monks into the same level, take out ten of the nineteen large spirit stone mines, and let them select disciples to compete in a competition. The winner will occupy four. , and the rest occupy three seats each. The remaining five sects are listed as one level and compete for the remaining nine. The first place will occupy three of them, the second and third will each occupy two, and the remaining ones will each occupy one. But this was not a permanent occupation, but rather contested every thirty years. The competition is for disciples from each of the five sects to participate in an on-site competition, and only disciples in the Qi gathering stage can be selected to participate each time. Each sect can only produce forty disciples at a time. The five factions took turns holding this competition. As a result, all factions had no objections. This method has been practiced for more than two thousand years, and the next competition between the five sects will be held at the Blood Refining Sect. The thirty-year period was about to expire, so the senior officials of the Luoxia Sect decided to conduct a competition among the disciples in the Qi Gathering Period to select the disciples who would participate in this battle. This competition is scheduled to take place in three months. The selected disciples will also receive special guidance from the Master during the Foundation Establishment Period for half a year before they can participate in the competition for the spirit stone mine a year later. In order to encourage capable disciples to participate, the Luoxia Sect's senior management negotiated and decided to take out the Foundation Building Pill as a reward for the winner. Use this as a means of motivation to stimulate those disciples at the ninth level and the Great Perfection level during the Qi Gathering Period to participate. Foundation Building Pill, as the name suggests, is a kind of elixir taken by immortal cultivators when building their foundation. This kind of elixir is extremely powerful and has a very high success rate in breaking through the bottleneck at the peak of the Qi gathering period. Although the Foundation Establishment Pill has such miraculous effects, for most monks, whether they can successfully build the Foundation after taking the Foundation Establishment Pill depends on the opportunity. However, since the monk has not taken the foundation-building pill, the chance of him being able to build the foundation is even lower. This is a well-known fact in the world of immortality. Refining the Foundation Establishment Pill requires extremely precious spiritual herbs, and even the major sects are unable to refine enough Foundation Establishment Pills for their disciples to take.
Therefore, if disciples of various sects want to obtain the Foundation Building Pill, they must either be extremely talented in cultivation and have excellent spiritual root attributes; or they must have made outstanding contributions to the sect, such as handing over an extremely precious material, or discovering a plant that is hundreds of years old or older. Thousands of cherished elixirs. For a sect with thousands of disciples, only one-two-tenth of the number of disciples who have the opportunity to take the Foundation-Building Pill, and those who can successfully build the Foundation are less than one-tenth of the number of disciples who have taken the Foundation-Building Pill. one. One can imagine how difficult it is for monks to build a foundation. But as long as the monks succeed in establishing the foundation, they will truly step into the door of cultivating immortals. Their lifespan will be more than doubled, and their magic power will be deeper. Ten monks in the late stage of Qi gathering stage will only compete with the previous monk in the foundation building stage. Mana, there is only one way to perish. Therefore, disciples in the Qi Gathering Stage are extremely eager for the Foundation Establishment Pill. This time for the selection of low-level disciples of Luoxia Sect, it is stipulated that only disciples who have reached the eighth level of the Qi Gathering Stage can participate, and they must not be over thirty years old. Although it is stipulated that all eighth-level disciples can participate, no one has any hope for eighth-level disciples. The competition between low-level monks, under the same conditions of magical weapons and spells, mainly depends on whose magic power is deeper. Therefore, in the past competitions between disciples from all walks of life, most of the disciples who were in the Dzogchen realm of Qi gathering stage won in the end. But occasionally there will be disciples at the ninth level of the Qi Gathering Stage who will win. As for the eighth level, it has never appeared before. There is no other reason. There are hundreds or even thousands of disciples at the peak of the Qi Gathering Stage of the Luoxia Sect. You can imagine how difficult it is to stand out among the many Dzogchen disciples.
