Chapter 319 Red Pine Pill

Ji An nodded slightly, "Where are the disciples?"

Jia Yu and others had already made arrangements to accept disciples a few years ago.

Now the 'delivery' is coming to his door, obviously not wanting to give him any room to refuse.

Just take it, it will make Chiyan Peak more lively, and you can get a few free laborers.

Immortal cultivators attach great importance to the master-disciple relationship, which in some ways exceeds the blood relationship.

If you train them well, the disciples can be a great help.

Tian Qingbai turned sideways and said:
“They’re all waiting outside.

Uncle Zhang informed me that I have specially selected ten of the best disciples this year.

Their qualifications are all top-grade, not far from the earth-grade, and their hearts towards the Tao are also excellent."

This year, only the other uncle in the Chaoyuan period wanted to accept a disciple, so he brought the best conditions.

"Let's go take a look."

Ji An stepped out and saw the disciples standing in two rows.

Everyone is full of energy and their eyes are bright.

When we arrived, we were told that a Chaoyuan-stage cultivator was accepting disciples, and everyone was very excited.

Being a disciple of such a cultivator, breaking through the foundation-building stage will certainly be a piece of cake, and there might even be a chance to glimpse the Chaoyuan stage!
Ji An tilted his head slightly and asked:
"Have you told them the sect's purpose in asking me to accept you as a disciple?"

Tian Qingbai moved his lips and shook his head.

Of course, he didn't tell them that the talented disciples might not be willing to be a spiritual farmer.

Ji An raised his eyebrows slightly, facing the disciples, and said in a deep voice:

"I am Ji An, the Lord of Sinong Palace.

The main purpose of accepting disciples this time is to cultivate excellent spiritual farmers for the sect.

Therefore, if you become my disciple, the teachings you receive will mainly be about planting.

Before the planting spell reaches the perfect level, you are not allowed to learn other spells and cultivation techniques.

Even if you break through the foundation-building stage, you must first be a spiritual farmer."

He said it bluntly because his apprentice had to be a spiritual farmer first before he could choose to become an alchemist or something.

If the disciple's mind is not on the spiritual field, then his training will be wasted.

As soon as he finished speaking, many disciples' faces changed. Ji An's requirements were really too harsh.

"The purpose of my hard work in cultivation is to become a spiritual farmer?!"

These disciples all have top-grade qualifications. Even if they do not become disciples of Chaoyuan-stage cultivators, their future is bright.

You can become a disciple of the Equipment Refining Hall or the Beast Taming Hall, and it will not affect your opportunity to become a disciple of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Ji An glanced at the expressions on everyone's faces and said:

"The matter of becoming a disciple is of great importance. The master chooses the disciple, and the disciple also chooses the master. Those who have no intention of becoming a spiritual farmer can stand up now."

The disciples looked at each other, wanting to stand up but not daring to be the first.

Tian Qingbai sighed in his heart. He now thought that there was nothing wrong with being a spiritual farmer, especially since his master's name was 'Ji An'!
The sect's first Chaoyuan-level spiritual farmer, whose attainments in planting are unmatched in the entire Western Continent.

These days he had inquired about Ji An's news and learned that Chiyan Peak had a large number of second-level spiritual plants. He was shocked and could not calm down for a long time.

The silence didn't last long. A disciple stepped out and bowed, saying:

"My disciple dreams of becoming a sword cultivator. Master, please forgive me!"

He had a calm gaze and a straight scar, one inch long, on the left side of his forehead.

The tone is calm, neither humble nor arrogant.

"It's good that everyone has the power to choose and to follow their own inner voice."

Ji An waved his hand, motioning the other party to stand aside.

"Make your choice quickly. I'm busy."

"Grandmaster, I want to become a weapon refiner."

"Master, I love all kinds of spirit beasts and want to become a beastmaster."

Disciples stepped forward one after another, and soon only two were left.

A young man with a slightly dark complexion, and a pretty girl with lively eyes, were wearing starched Taoist robes that had turned slightly white.

Ji An smiled:

"Are you willing to take me as your master?

I won't change what I said, unless you break through to the Chao Yuan stage, you will first be a spiritual farmer."

The young man lowered his head and said simply:

"I've experienced the pain of starvation, and I think being a spiritual farmer is a good thing."

His parents were just casual cultivators. They both died after the demon disaster broke out, and he had a very difficult time.

The girl smiled sweetly and said:
"I don't like fighting, so becoming a spiritual farmer is a good choice."

Tian Qingbai nodded imperceptibly, thinking that the two disciples had seized the opportunity.

Ji An made the decision:
"There are just two of them. No need to pick, just the two of them."

This result is pretty good, saving me the trouble of comparison.

"Congratulations, junior brothers and sisters, for becoming good teachers!"

Tian Qingbai immediately changed the address and said:
"Uncle Master, I'm leaving now."

He took out the flying boat, pinched the magic formula to make it bigger, and then called out:
"All disciples, follow me and leave."

As the flying boat sailed away, Ji An said:
"You two, please tell us your names and ages."

The black-faced disciple said:
"Disciple Han Shan, fourteen years old, has reached the second level of Qi Refining."

"Disciple Lin Lan, fifteen years old, has reached the third level of Qi Refining."

Ji An smiled and nodded, "Everything is good, better than when I was your teacher.

From now on, Lin Lan is the eldest senior sister.

Come with me to meet your master for tea in the evening."

He succeeded in opening his meridians at the age of seventeen.

The three of them arrived at the next cave, and Ge Ying raised her eyebrows slightly:
"Is that the choice?"

Tian Qingbai visited her when he came to Ningcui Cliff and told her the purpose of his trip.

There is no choice, only two left!

Ji An nodded and turned back and said:

"Hurry and pay your respects to the Grandmaster."

"Disciple Lin Lan (Han Shan) pays homage to the Grandmaster." "Okay, it's your good fortune to be Ji An's disciple."

After talking for a while, Ji An bowed:
"Master, I still have to go to the Sinong Palace, so I'll take my leave first."

Ji An brought two disciples and rode a cloud to the Sinong Hall. He could feel his disciples' accelerated heartbeats.

"What kind of skills do you practice?"

"In reply to Master, we all chose the Qingyuan Sutra."

"Have you ever practiced magic?"

"Never."

At this moment, a gentle voice came:

"Palace Master, Lin Mao has something to report."

Ji An pinched his fingers to open the forbidden area and said:

"You two go to the next room to practice, and have lunch with the others."

"Yes, the disciple retire."

After the two disciples left, Lin Mao bowed and said:
"Palace Master, I would like to report today's arrangements to you."

Ji An listened quietly and said with a smile:

“Palace Master Lin has thought it through, I approve.

From now on, such daily arrangements can be discussed between you and Palace Master Kong.

I will be practicing in the back hall on weekdays, please take care of me."

What I mean is, don't come to me unless it's something serious.

He planned to lie low for a few years before carrying out his plan.

Reform must definitely take place, but not now.

Lin Maoren was old and experienced, so he understood the hidden meaning in his words and said with a smile:

"I will definitely live up to the Palace Master's expectations."

After chatting for a while, he found an excuse to say goodbye and leave.

Ji An lit a burner of soul incense, sat cross-legged on the cushion, and practiced the method of opening the Fire Element Divine Palace in the Five Elements Rotation Sutra.

With the help of the soul incense, he can persist in building his residence for a longer time.

When Ji An opened his eyes again, the soul incense in the incense burner had burned out and four hours had passed.

He came to the next door and said:

"Follow me, I will take you back to Scarlet Flame Peak today.

That is my dojo, and you will practice there from now on."

A second-grade, mid-grade spiritual vein is sufficient for two disciples to practice without the need for elixirs.

"Yes, sir," the two disciples couldn't help but be happy.

He rode on auspicious clouds and flew towards the northwest. The two disciples were only in the initial stage of Qi training, so it was dangerous for them to ride on the teleportation array.

After flying for an hour, auspicious clouds landed beside the cold pond.

Ji An called the other three disciples and held a simple disciple-taking ceremony with them as witnesses.

After drinking the apprenticeship tea, he said in a deep voice:
"Song Tao, tomorrow you will withdraw twenty spirit stones and give them ten each.

Also, take them to the General Affairs Hall to select planting spells and object control spells."

Wei Songtao responded immediately:
"As ordered."

He was filled with envy. These two disciples were truly lucky!

With the support of my master, I may be able to break through to the Chaoyuan stage in the future.

If we just give them some of the resources in Chiyan Peak, it will easily help them break through the foundation-building stage.

"Thank you, Master, for the reward."

The two disciples were also excited, as ten spirit stones were not a small number.

Ji An said seriously:
"Lin Lan, Han Shan, after you two get the magic jade slips, you must preside over it diligently.

At the beginning of each month, I will test your cultivation and mastery of magic, and I will also answer your questions."

"Thank you for your teachings, Master. I will definitely practice diligently."

Ji An turned around and ordered:
"Cuihua, you will take them to familiarize themselves with the situation here and arrange accommodation for them.

Give them a portion of the spiritual food you enjoy every month."

The three disciples who are in charge of miscellaneous chores receive spiritual food such as dried fruits, dried meats, pine nuts, honey, etc. every month.

With the help of spiritual food, the two disciples should be able to break through to the middle stage of Qi Refining soon.

With a certain level of cultivation, you will also have enough magic power to practice spells.

Zhang Cuihua lowered her head: "As you wish."

Ji An waved his hand and said:
"You guys keep busy, I'm going to eat some air."

After saying this, he flew away on a cloud.

Zhang Cuihua extended her hand and invited:
"Two junior uncles, please follow me. Today I will take you on a tour of the area surrounding the Lower Cold Pond."

three days later.

Han Yan and Jia Yu landed in the Sinong Palace, both with smiles on their faces and beaming with joy.

Lin Mao came forward and said with a smile:
"Uncle Jia, Uncle Han, I didn't know you were coming. Please forgive me for not welcoming you."

He wondered in his heart what the two people came for.

Jia Yu waved his hand and asked:
"Xiao Lin, now that you've received the mission from Sinong Palace, has it affected your cultivation of the spiritual fields?"

The other party is responsible for taking care of some very important spiritual plants, such as the soul-nourishing tree. These things are very important.

"Of course not. Disciple will cast spells at night."

"That's good. By the way, where's Ji An?"

"Palace Master Ji is cultivating in the back hall. Do you need me to inform him?"

"No need, let's go find him directly."

The two of them came to the back hall, and Jia Yu shouted:

"Junior Brother Ji, I need your help!"

Ji An invited the two into the hall and said with a smile:

"What good news can you tell me?"

Han Yan took out a jade bottle, her eyes filled with pride:
"This is the Red Pine Pill I refined. Please take a look, Junior Brother."
