"Those who have passed the three stages of the Golden Bridge can cultivate on Fangzhang Island and listen to my lecture.”
Kong Xuan's voice resounded outside Penglai Island.
There were three islands in total, Penglai Island, Sanctuary Island, and Fangzhang Island.
Penglai Island was Kong Xuan's residence, while Sanctuary Island was where Kong Xuan's personal disciples lived. Only Fangzhang Island had always been empty.
It was already a great grace for Kong Xuan to grant the right of residence on Fangzhang Island and allow the monks who had passed the three passes of the golden bridge to cultivate and listen to the training on the island.
There were about 30 cultivators who had passed the third stage of the golden bridge. They had planned to leave, but Kong Xuan's words gave them new hope.
"Thank you for your grace, Saint Kong!"
The 30 or so cultivators all bowed to the abbot of Penglai Island, thanking Kong Xuan for giving them the right to listen.
"Hmph, it's just a qualification to listen. Do you know what listening means? "We can only listen to the Dao. He won't give us cultivation techniques or guide us in cultivation. As for Numinous treasures, there's no need to think about it.
"That Sage Tongtian of Jie School teaches all without discrimination. I'm going to Kunlun Mountain to join Jie School. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come to Penglai Island. I don't care about a mere qualification to listen."”
"That's right. I'll also go to Kunlun Mountain to take a look. It would be best if I can join Jie School.”
There were also a few prideful cultivators who didn't like the opportunity Kong Xuan had given them. They left angrily, ready to try their luck with the other Sages.
An audit student was not even a disciple. He could only listen to Kong Xuan's sermon. Kong Xuan wouldn't even give them any guidance, let alone spiritual treasures. He wouldn't even give them cultivation techniques. No wonder some cultivators didn't care about the qualification to listen.
Among the thirty cultivators, five or six of them left Penglai Island decisively. Among the remaining cultivators, a portion of them felt that there was no future in listening, so they thought about it and left. In the blink of an eye, only nineteen cultivators remained, including Zhao Gongming.
Originally, Zhao Gongming had also planned to leave and try his luck with other Saints. However, Cloudsky had already become a disciple of Penglai. He did not want to be separated from his brother, so he stayed.
"But Bixiao and Qiongxiao, those two girls, have only passed the second stage of the Golden Bridge. They aren't even qualified to listen.”Thinking of Bixiao and Qiongxiao, Zhao Gongming couldn't help but feel troubled.
Although Bixiao Qiong Xiao was talented and kind, she was not stable and her Dao heart was not strong, so she was eliminated in the willpower test.
"Brother!"
The array formation of Penglai Island was opened wide, and Cloudsky walked out from it.
"Congratulations on becoming a disciple of a Saint. From now on, your Great Dao can be expected.”When Zhao Gongming saw Cloudsky, a smile appeared on his face and he hurriedly cupped his hands to congratulate him.
Yunxiao hurriedly returned the greeting." Elder brother, you don't have to be discouraged. At least you've obtained the qualification to listen. In the future, it's not necessarily impossible for you to achieve Dao."”
Zhao Gongming shook his head and didn't want to talk about this. He changed the topic,""I still have the right to listen, but the two little sisters don't even have the right to listen. Their cultivation levels aren't high. If they leave us and are bullied by others, what should we do?”
Hearing this, Cloudsky smiled and said," Don't worry, Elder Brother. I've already asked for a place for the two little sisters to listen. Today, we can cultivate under Master's tutelage." Hurry up and find the two little sisters so that we can pay our respects to Master together!”
The two of them found Jade Sky and entered Penglai Island with the remaining 18 cultivators to pay their respects to Kong Xuan.
"Greetings, Master. I wish you a long life!”
Outside the Dao Seeking Hall on Penglai Island, Kong Xuan and his disciples knelt on the ground.
In the front row were Shi Ya, Yuan Ming, Ao Ying, Yu Ding, Yun Xiao, and Lei Ling, the six direct disciples.
In the back row, there were twenty-one audit students led by Zhao Gongming, Bixiao, and Qiong Xiao.
Kong Xuan looked at the disciples and said,""Since you have joined Penglai, you must abide by three sect rules. First, respect your teacher. Second, you must not compete with each other. Third, you must not wantonly kill innocent creatures! If you violate the sect rules, don't blame me for being impolite!”
"We will obey your orders!" All the disciples said in unison.
Kong Xuan then looked at the twenty-one audit students and said,""Although you are here to listen, since you have entered my Penglai, I will not ignore you.”
Although these students hadn't passed the fourth stage of the golden bridge, they were all people with great moral integrity and perseverance.
For example, Zhao Gongming, Qiong Xiao, and Bi Xiao, their talents were actually not inferior to Yunxiao, Yuding, and the others.
Although Kong Xuan wouldn't accept them as disciples, she wouldn't really just give them a chance to listen. Ignoring them would only delay them.
" I'll give you the cultivation method," Kong Xuan continued." It's not a problem for me to give you some pointers. As for the spiritual treasures, they're not a problem either."”
When the group of audit students heard this, they could not help but become excited. In that case, wouldn't they be no different from personal disciples?
" But…" Kong Xuan changed the topic,""If you want me to personally guide you and give you a Numinous treasure, there are conditions!”
"Master, how can you personally guide us and bestow us with Numinous treasures?”Zhao Gongming cupped his hands and asked.
"Merit!" "If you want me to teach you personally and give you spiritual treasures, you need to earn merit points!" Kong Xuan said with a smile. Look!"
Kong Xuan stretched out her hand and pointed. A golden board appeared in the air, and words flashed on it.
[Low-grade Connate Numinous treasure: 1 million merit points.]
[Middle-grade Connate Numinous treasure: 1 million merit points.]
[High-grade Connate Numinous treasure: 10 million merit points.]
Top-grade Connate Numinous treasure: 100,000 Yuanhui Merit Points.
[Postnatal cardinal treasure: 200,000 Yuanhui merit points]
After that, there were also the prices of some rare spiritual fruits, spiritual materials, spiritual pills, and divine powers and spells.
When the disciples saw the words on the golden list, their faces could not help but twitch. Master was clearly listing the price. Everything had to be bought with merit.
Kong Xuan smiled and said," You really don't understand my painstaking efforts. The reason why I want you to earn merits is because you don't have great wisdom. If the tribulation comes, you will inevitably enter it. If it's light, your cultivation will be damaged. If it's serious, you will die. If you have merits, you may be saved when the tribulation comes."
As long as you earn so much merit, I will give you some pointers and give you a spiritual treasure. I don't want you to exchange your merit for a spiritual treasure.
Moreover, there are a limited number of Primordial Spiritual Treasures. The Spiritual Treasures I have are not enough to give you. Therefore, the Spiritual Treasures given to you must be refined by me. At that time, you can choose to add the Merits you have obtained to increase the power of the Spiritual Treasures.”
Hearing this, the disciples couldn't help but feel touched. It turned out that Kong Xuan wanted them to earn merit points to protect them.
"Thank you, Master." All the disciples said in unison.
