Stars fall and locust trees grow

Chapter 153 Do you also want to practice dual cultivation? !

As the main peak, Xingjie Peak is naturally the largest among the 29 peaks. Among the mountains, you can vaguely see various buildings scattered in an orderly manner, like falling into the mist.

After leaving the square, Hu Di led Gu Chuanlin, Li Chi and Zeng Muhan up the stairs.

Along the way, the breeze was blowing gently and the green trees were shady, which made people feel relaxed and happy. Li Chi felt both novel and comfortable to see such scenery in the Gobi Desert. He pulled Gu Chuanlin's sleeve and chattered non-stop.

The young man's smiling face always makes people feel itchy. If there were no one else around, Gu Chuanlin would have dragged him into his arms and kissed him fiercely.

While Hu Di led a few people towards the meeting hall, he briefly introduced the basic situation of the Twenty-Nine Mountains.

"In order to facilitate management, the sect has specially set up two sect masters, the chief and deputy sect masters, as well as a supreme elder, thirteen elders, twenty-nine peak leaders, and several managers."

"Of course, among these thirteen elders, the three of us were sent to the Jiangzhou branch."

"The twenty-nine peak leaders are each stationed at a mountain peak. They are directly under the jurisdiction of the two sect masters. Unless it is a matter of life and death for the peak, they are not allowed to leave the peak for the rest of their lives. The remaining elders and managers are responsible for some of the sect's daily affairs."

Hearing this, Li Chi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Although each of your twenty-nine peaks looks majestic and tall enough, it would be too hard for a person to stay on one peak for his entire life, right?!"

How is this different from when I was in the inner courtyard of Juyun Sect? !

"Being able to endure what ordinary people cannot endure is also a part of cultivation." Hu Di said with a smile: "However, as compensation, the sect also provides them with the best cultivation resources, which are far beyond the reach of us so-called elders."

Li Chi sighed, "Maybe I was scared of being locked up in my previous life, so I prefer to be free now."

"In fact, in addition to guarding the peak and daily training, the peak leaders still have a lot of things to do. It's not as boring as you think."

Hu Di continued to introduce: "When the founder of the sect first established the sect, he divided the peaks into different functions. Among them, three peaks are for alchemy cultivation, four peaks are for talisman cultivation, fifteen peaks are for weapon cultivation, two peaks are for trial, two peaks including the main peak are for activities, one peak is for treasure pavilion, medicine pavilion, material pavilion and book pavilion, etc., and the remaining two peaks are the forbidden areas of the spiritual ancestors."

"So, those peak leaders are always busy every day."

"I see." Li Chi nodded. Thinking back to when they were in Shuozhou, Gu Huaiyi had said that Maoqiu was the future spiritual ancestor of Mingyuejian, so he continued to ask: "Your 29 Yue actually have two spiritual ancestors?! What kind of spiritual beasts are they?!"

Hu Di pursed his lips helplessly, "Little friend, you really don't read books normally?! The development history of the various high-level sects in the Spirit Realm is common knowledge."

"Hehe..." Li Chi laughed awkwardly twice, "I really started to study recently, but now I have just finished learning the knowledge of our Mingyue Sect. As for the knowledge of other sects, I don't have time to read it yet."

Hu Di stopped, stood on the bluestone steps with his arms folded, and said quietly: "Although your theoretical knowledge is somewhat lacking, your strength seems to be improving."

He glanced at Gu Chuanlin, then looked at Li Chi, and said, "Could this be the benefit of dual cultivation?!"

"Puff..." Before Li Chi could start to scold him, Zeng Muhan was the first to spit out words in embarrassment. Seeing that everyone was looking at him sideways, he coughed twice and said, "Um... I choked on my saliva..."

Hu Di seemed to have suddenly remembered something interesting, and he jumped directly to his side, put his arm on his shoulders in a very familiar manner, and said with a smile: "Xiao Zeng! Do you also want to practice dual cultivation?!"

Zeng Mu was sweating profusely and tried to escape from the other person's arms. "I... I don't want to..."

"No, you want to." Hu Di held him tightly, "Tell uncle, do you like boys or girls?! Do you like those who are older than you, or younger than you?!"

"Hey! You pervert! Can you please stop bullying Senior Brother Zeng?!" Li Chi couldn't stand Hu Di's wretched look any more, so he grabbed Zeng Muhan's arm and lifted him up the stairs.

Zeng Muhan, who had finally escaped from the clutches of the devil, had just taken a breath when he caught a glimpse of his junior master staring at his junior brother's hand that was holding his arm, so he quickly took three steps at a time and fled to the top of them.

Woohoo, little master’s eyes are so scary…

After walking for another quarter of an hour, they finally arrived at the meeting room. As soon as they entered, four old men came to greet them.

The leader had an immortal look and was none other than Shen Changlin, the current leader of the Twenty-Nine Mountains. Beside him was the second elder, Wu Qinghao.

The last two looked obviously unfriendly. One of them was Elder Zhao Shaoji, whom Li Chi had met in the Jiangzhou branch, and the other was Elder Li Ming, who had been tortured by Hu Di with the "Comfortable Crawling Talisman".

After Hu Di introduced them one by one, Ming Yuejian and the other two immediately greeted them politely.

Shen Changlin spoke first, "I've heard that a remarkable descendant appeared in Mingyue. Not only did he activate the clan emblem on his own, but he was also born with a dragon-like appearance and outstanding demeanor. Seeing him today, I can see that the rumors are indeed true!"

Gu Chuanlin was not very good at dealing with such a situation, so he just replied calmly: "I am unworthy of this position."

"If even you are not worthy of it, then who else can?!" The second elder Wu Qinghao also stepped forward and sighed sincerely: "After all, the clan mark on your forehead is not simple!"

After a few people surrounded Gu Chuanlin and exchanged pleasantries for a while, Shen Changlin set his sights on Zeng Muhan again, "I remember that during the last sect competition, you won the first place among the weapon cultivators of the same realm. You really deserve to be the chief disciple of Mingyuejian."

"The last competition was just a fluke." Zeng Muhan replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, "I'm still far behind Senior Brother Shen."

The Senior Brother Shen he was talking about was none other than Shen Jue, the chief disciple of the Twenty-Nine Yue and also one of the direct descendants of the Shen family.

Li Chi originally thought that such a high-level meeting between two high-level sects should have nothing to do with him. He just needed to stand quietly behind Gu Chuanlin as a background. However, just when he was daydreaming, he saw Shen Changlin suddenly looking at him with a smile.

"This young Taoist friend is not very old, but his realm is not low. His body also looks a little different. Most importantly, his temperament is somewhat similar to that of Elder Xiao Gu."

His eyes were shining brightly, as if they could see through the body and directly into the soul, which made Li Chi feel a little uncomfortable. But out of courtesy, Li Chi still bowed and said, "Greetings, Sect Master Shen."

"My disciple and Senior Brother Zeng are both disciples of the head master. On weekdays, we often practice with the young master, so we are influenced by him and our behavior and temperament are similar."
