401 Chapter 400 Weird Attitude

"Since our common people path wants all people to be equal, we must set the examples. Although the sect is split between direct, core, inner and outer disciples, but the cultivation conditions were all the same. Even I have similar conditions…"

When he heard those words, Zong Shou was slightly surprised, "Inner and outer disciples are treated the same? But since the cultivation methods they trained in were different, how are they treated the same?"

"Who said they were different?"

Hanfang smiled, his face was filled with a prideful expression, "Other sects treat the true pinnacle techniques of the sects as secrets and didn't pass it about. Only our common people path opens it all out and lets everyone learn it. We only look at their morals and personality, if the elders and seniors recognize them, then they would allow you to learn it. As long as you can understand it, then you can learn it. Teacher's senior brother Xi Zi set up these rules and they hadn't been changed in ten thousand years. That is why our common people path 3 sects and 6 schools are seen as the demon path. Our numbers far less than other sects, but we still produce so many talents. Using our own ability to go up against the Taoists, Confucians and Buddhism such that they don't dare to act too unrestrained…"

Zong Shou didn't believe him fully. He remembered that when Wei Xu spread to him the insight mysterious lightning body training art and the great sky changing meditation technique, that wasn't what he said.

However thinking about it carefully, it seemed like Wei Xu said that these 2 sect secret techniques weren't allowed to be passed to outsiders.

"...People who managed to cultivate it would be common people path inner sect disciples."

At that time, he understood that the final sentence as needing inner sect disciple qualifications to be able to learn these 2 cultivation methods. Now thinking about it, maybe what his senior brother meant was that after one learns it, they had the rights to enter the common people path inner sect.

Strictly speaking, these 2 grade 10 saint spirit level cultivation methods weren't things that normal people could cultivate in.

Zong Yuan was able to because he had enough comprehension into the power of lightning. As for Chuxue and Ruoshui. Even with his teachings, they were unable to truly grasp the technique.

On one side it was open, allowing you to choose until you learn all that you can learn. The other side was keeping it a secret and not passing it down, gathering resources to develop core disciples. Which one was the better of the 2 was hard to say. However, Xi Zi was truly magnanimous making one respect him.

Who knew if it was because of how he went all around to learn in the last life and didn't have a sect. However, he approved of and supported what the common people path did.

However, in the next moment, he heard that Hanfang laugh awkwardly," However it was also because of that which many top talents break away from our common people path. Even saint talents of the ancient times were like normal disciples in our sect. That's why there weren't many true talents who want to enter our sect. Luckily the disciples work hard and dare to train hard. In ten thousand years, they didn't show any signs of falling behind. Does junior brother regret anything today?"

When Zong Shou heard that, he broke out into a laugh, saying with a tranquil expression, "I don't know what others think but what I agree with what master's husband Xi Zi set!"

Hanfang was startled when he heard that, he originally thought that Zong Shou would grumble a little, even if he didn't say out he would feel uncomfortable deep down inside. He was also prepared to speak to persuade him and calm his heart down. Who knew that he would get such a reply, his expression was extremely happy. There was nothing fake about it at all.

People who were so talented were often arrogant and proud thinking that they were big shots. People like Zong Shou were truly a rare breed.

His junior brother was so weird!

Hanfang shook his head, casually instructing him about some rules of the common people path vast habitat before he was ready to leave. He originally wanted to bring Shi Ruolan along with him.

However in the end when he saw that this little brat wanted to follow Zong Shou and wasn't willing to leave. He could only helplessly give up.

The moment he just stepped out of the courtyard, Hanfang suddenly thought about something and suddenly turned around, "I forgot something. Junior brother needs to remember that it is best you don't tell other people about your name on the mysterious golden life book."

When Zong Shou heard that, his brows curved, "Junior brother is willing to hear you elaborate!"

"There is no reason. Apart from preventing the soul from being destroyed the book is also able to extend life. If not how can a god realm person like me with no special bloodline live from ten thousand years ago till now? Do you know junior brother that when your name is carved onto that book, you will have 50% longer life than other people?"

After Hanfang said that, he let out a self-mocking laugh before he took his leave.

Zong Shou was instantly startled, taking a long while before he was able to come back to his senses.

50%? Which means that with his current realm he could live for 300 years. Then the mysterious golden life book could help him live till 450 years old?

...No wonder this item would be the Sect protecting treasure of the common people path!"

Following which he squinted his eyes as he looked upwards.

He knew that the ancestral hall of the common people path wasn't within the building group known as the common people palace but hidden at the highest part, a place where the stars circled.

When he entered the vast habitat he could feel that that place, there was something within the ancestral hall which seemed to be connected to his soul, like it was calling out to him.

Was it the mysterious golden life book? No, it shouldn't be so intense. That's right, it was that sword! The celestial sword that senior brother called the god refined sword!

He got an urge to rush up and grab the sword in his hand. However, in his heart, he was feeling a little weird. Based on what senior brother Wei Xu said, didn't this sword need someone to be at the god realm to be able to grasp it?

Or was his feeling just an illusion?

He focused he didn't even notice that senior brother Han had left.

It wasn't until he heard something did Zong Shou come back to his senses. When he looked outwards, he saw that there were tens of people who were standing not far away, their expressions were extremely weird.

Who knows was it because it was night and the lectures had already ended, more and more people started to gather around. The gazes they threw over were all the same.

Zong Shou instinctively touched his face, there was nothing wrong with it. Following which he had an idea as he looked towards the signboard which wrote 1st Courtyard A.

When he came he didn't think much about it but now it seems like this courtyard or the name of this courtyard was special.

He wanted to find someone to ask but looking at the situation it most probably wouldn't work. Zong Shou decisively closed the door of the courtyard, cutting off all their gazes.

His brain swelled up. Who knows why, but after being stared at by the people like he was a monkey, that urge from before had disappeared.

Even that rough connection from before had disappeared.

Zong Shou couldn't help but mock himself, as expected it was an illusion...

...

The entire night was spent cleaning the place up. Who knew how long it had been without someone staying there. The dust was a feet thick. Luckily the few of them could use spells, using a wind talisman to sweep and they could blow the dust all away. Following Chuxue excitedly took out all kinds of beautiful furniture from the heaven and earth bag and placed it all around.

Zong Shou didn't mind much. He was similar to Zong Yuan, he just needed a bed and he could rest.

However, he definitely wouldn't oppose if he could live his days more comfortably.

A large part of his energy was spent on modifying the spiritual formation. Before this, he had asked Hanfang. Although the sect treated everyone equally and saw them as the same status, they didn't stop disciples from using their own money to modify their lives.

Zong Shou decided to go all out, placing spirit gathering formations all over this 3 branched courtyard.

Each day he would consume a total of 20 grade 4 beast crystal. Naturally, with such a high price, it caused the spiritual energy that was gathered here to pretty much reach the peak.

All of a sudden numerous spiritual energy waves swept over within this vast habitat, exceeding 3 times to normal levels before stopping.

The density of the spiritual energy within the vast habitat was 10 times that of the outside world. As for within this courtyard, it was 30 times more than in Gantian Mountain.

The most direct effect would be when he cultivated the insight mysterious lightning body training art and the great sky changing meditation technique.

Within a night even without using any pills to support, the cultivation effects were a huge 60% than usual.

Zong Shou tried to cultivate for half a night. Then he sighed. The effects of cultivating in this vast habitat were truly different.

The Hanyan Palace on the peak of Gantian Mountain could be said to have bountiful spiritual energy but he couldn't feel any effects usually.

Only the abundance of the spiritual energy of the spiritual houses and shrines could truly help one cultivate more efficiently.

With such precious land, no matter how average the talents of the disciples was, his future achievements would be no small matter.

On the early morning of the second day, Zong Shou allowed Zong Yuan and the others to do their activities. As for himself, he excitedly headed towards the Book Hiding Building B.

He borrowed the tens of books that he had craved for in the past. Then he headed to the scripture lecture hall which thought spiritual arts to listen in quietly.

Although they were just some basics, verifying them with what he had learned, he felt like everything was clicking perfectly.

At the start it was still okay, slowly Zong Shou felt that something was wrong. The people around him were originally focusing on the lessons but slowly they were in deep discussion, shifting their seats continuously.

It was like there was a poison around Zong Shou and they didn't dare to get close. The gazes they looked over with were different. Either envious, unhappy, shocked, pity or curious.

Zong Shou's heart slightly sunk, following which he had an idea and knew that this was most likely a continuation of what happened yesterday.

Unfortunately, this place wasn't Gantian Mountain and people around him were all people of the same sect. If not he could just grab one and he would know the reason.

The lectures here would have a 10-minute break every hour. A lecture hall will speak about the grade 1-5 basics, the other was about grade 6 and after, all the talismans, spells and cultivation path.

Based on what Hanfang said, the lessons here continuously cycled. If one was lucky and coincidentally the teacher in charge of teaching the basics was invited not long ago, then he could start from the top.

During the lecture, Zong Shou was able to pay attention to it, but when it ended, his heart sunk a little. He could feel the coldness and alienation in the eyes of the others.

Just as he was totally confused and didn't know the reason, he saw 2 extremely familiar graceful figures.

"Yanran, Yunlan?"
