Chapter 525 The Great Elder


    The few people from Mo Hua temporarily settled in the Five Elements School.


    They live in the most noble guest rooms in the entire sect, with elegant style and luxurious furnishings.


    All the food and daily life are the highest standards.


    Spiritual delicacies, century-old fine wine, cloud tea, and flower cakes, everything is available...


    The Five Elements Sect was very thoughtful, but the attitude was not friendly. It was just polite on the surface, with a fake smile on its face, its eyes were still cold, and its attitude was very distant.


    Although it is good to eat and drink, Mo Hua is not here to play, he has to learn the formation.


    He was concerned about the Five Elements Spiritual Formation.


    But the head of the Five Elements Sect ruthlessly said:


    "In theory, since it is the agreement of our ancestors, we naturally have no reason to violate it..."


    "But after all, it''s been hundreds of years..."


    The head of the Five Elements Sect showed a difficult look on his face, "Some of the senior elders in the sect have passed away. We juniors are not clear about the specific matters agreed upon, so we must discuss and consider related matters."


    "Please forgive me, Senior Zhuang."


    "After these days, please take a break in the Five Elements Sect and appreciate the inheritance and beautiful scenery of my Five Elements Sect..."


    "We will discuss learning formations as soon as possible."


    The head of the Five Elements Sect, Liao, has a golden crown and jade clothing, a white face and no beard, has a dignified appearance, and has a very demeanor of the head.


    The same is true for what is said.


    What you said is the same as not.


    Mo Hua curled his lips and was about to say something, but Mr. Zhuang said:


    "Then I will have Master Liao."


    President Liao was flattered and hurriedly said:


    "I dare not, this is what the younger generation should do."


    After another greeting, the leader Liao stood up and said goodbye.


    After the leader Liao left, Mo Hua said in confusion:


    "Master, are they trying to be fooled?"


    Mr. Zhuang nodded, "It is normal for others to learn the ultimate formation of the sect to be easily learned. It is normal to delay it..."


    "They won''t go back on their word, right?"


    "No, I dare not."


    Mo Hua said, "Then do we have to wait?"


    Mr. Zhuang nodded, "Wait."


    Mr. Zhuang took a look, frowned ink painting, and smiled gently:


    "The journey is exhausted and I just took a break. You can also take advantage of this time to have fun in the Five Elements Sect..."


    "Play?" Mo Hua was a little confused.


    "Yes." Mr. Zhuang said, "The scenery of the Five Elements Sect is good. You can take the opportunity to take a look. There is no need to worry about the formation."


    Mr. Zhuang looks like he has his own plans.


    Mo Hua couldn''t guess thoroughly, so she could only say, "Okay..."


    Then listen to Master and have a while to play...


    …


    Zhangmen Liao left the guest room and walked along the spacious corridor through the carved beams and painted buildings, but slightly deserted pavilions, through the rich but flashy palaces, and walked to a quiet mountain.


    A cave was built on the mountain.


    The cave is a bit old and obviously built earlier, but the details of the materials are also expensive, but it just looks a little low-key.


    The head of the Liao looked respectful and shaved the carved jade bell in front of the mansion.


    A crisp and pleasant jade sound rang out and came into the cave.


    Chief Liao stood up and waited.


    I don’t know how long it took, but a light flashed in front of the cave, the formation was untied, the gate was opened, and an old voice came from the door:


    “Come in.”


    Chief Liao was excited, tidied up his Taoist robe and walked into the cave.


    Inside the cave, it is also exquisite and luxurious.


    In the hall, there was an old man with white hair, with a strong breath and great prestige.


    This person is the great elder of the Five Elements Sect.


    He is also the only remaining one in the Five Elements Sect, a great cultivator in the Golden Dan Realm.


    The leader of the Liao bowed and said, "I disturbed the elder in seclusion."


    The elder opened his eyes, his eyes shining brightly, "Is that man here?"


    Chief Liao bowed, "Yes."


    The Great Elder frowned, his expression was solemn, silent, and he didn''t know what he was thinking about.


    Master Liao whispered:


    "The formation...will you pass it?"


    The elder''s eyes turned cold, "Can''t spread!"


    Master Liao hesitated a little, "This is the agreement of his ancestors. If you don''t pass on it, isn''t it... difficult to explain..."


    "You don''t understand." The great elder said in a deep voice, "The Five Elements Sect is no longer the same as before, and it is not the time to abide by such ancestral regulations."


    Master Liao was puzzled, but he did not dare to disobey the elder, so he had to bow down to him.


    The elder looked at the leader Liao and sighed in his heart.


    The Five Elements School is really declining.


    Once upon a time, there were many masters of the sect. In the late stage of foundation building, how could they be the head of the Five Elements Sect?


    My golden elixir was just an elder back then...


    But now is different from the past and cannot be chosen.


    This is already the most talented disciple among the descendants of the Five Elements Sect.


    Some things need to be explained to him clearly.


    The elder''s eyes sank and explained:


    "We built construction and built caves to benefit the sects and earned a lot of spirit stones. The root of this is because of the formation."


    "Only with the formation can we establish a sect."


    "The Five Elements Sect establishes a sect and seeks formation to gather the monks. Only when the mountain city is separated from the mountain city will be prosperous, and only when our mountain gate can we be rich in every inch of land."


    "Even if we are younger disciples, we will earn spiritual stones."


    The Great Elder frowned:


    "The problem now is that the formation of our Five Elements Sect has declined..."


    "The spirit stones are earned too easily, the oil and water are too fat, and the food is too full. From top to bottom, one by one, they all start to lose their ambitions, do not practice, and do not learn the formation..."


    "As long as the caves outside are there, the Five Elements Sect will have a steady stream of spiritual stones."


    "You don''t have to work hard, you will earn spiritual stones."


    "Who is still working hard?"


    "Our Five Elements Sect no longer establishes a sect based on formations, but uses Tumu to establish a sect."


    "But in this way, the formation attainments of the entire Five Elements Sect plummeted!"


    "Now let alone the second-grade formation masters, it would be good if you can produce a few first-grade formation masters..."


    President Liao said with a solemn look:


    "I also agree with this matter and have already figured out a way to solve it."


    "The decision within the sect is to rectify the atmosphere, innovate the Taoist cultivation industry, encourage disciples to study formations, cultivate formation masters, and make the Five Elements Sect a new formation sect..."


    President Liao''s tone was sincere.


    The elder looked calm and even a little cold.


    These empty words have been said for more than a hundred years.


    The interests are deeply rooted and one moves the entire sect, and no one dares to take action.


    The disciples in the sect have a weak mind. It is even more fantasy to let them endure hardships and learn the formation again.


    Real interests are difficult to change.


    The formation atmosphere involves the heart of Tao. Once it is corrupted, it is difficult to correct it.


    And over the years, the one who has obtained the most spiritual stones from it is the leader of the Five Elements Sect.


    The knife for slaughtering a pig is held in the pig''s hands.


    How could this meat be cut?


    The Great Elder said calmly:


    “This is not something that happens overnight…”


    "The most urgent task is to find a way to protect the inheritance of our Five Elements Sect."


    "Especially the Five Elements Spirit Array, which is the foundation of the sect, must not be spread out!"


    The Great Elder''s eyes shivered:


    "This ultimate formation must be firmly held in our hands and is monopolized by our Five Elements Sect."


    "It doesn''t matter if we can''t learn it, but no one can learn it outside the Five Elements Sect. Even if it rots, it can only rot in our Five Elements Sect!"


    "Even if it is lost, it must not fall into the hands of others."


    "Otherwise, it will be shaken, the foundation of my Five Elements Sect!"


    Master Liao''s eyes lit up, "The Great Elder has a far-sighted vision and has a proper thought!"


    This flattery is not painful or itchy.


    The expression of the Great Elder is neither salty nor light.


    President Liao thought for a brief moment, and then said:


    "However, this formation is extremely difficult. Over the years, few people have learned from the Five Elements Sect, and most of them are senior elders from the past."


    "Since the sect leader passed away, there have been no disciples among the descendants who can truly learn this Five Elements Spirit Array."


    "As long as our disciples of the Five Elements Sect are like this, can they really learn it?"


    A trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the Great Elder.


    "able!"


    President Liao was slightly surprised.


    The elder''s eyebrows pounded, "You don''t know that this man named Zhuang almost learned this Five Elements Spirit Array!"


    Chief Liao was startled, "How is that possible?"


    The elder remembered the past and was still scared:


    "I was just an ordinary disciple back then. I was at the scene, watching the man''s natural talent, and was amazing. In front of the leader of the Five Elements Sect and all the elders, I restored the array patterns of the Five Elements Spirit Array bit by bit, and understood the array pivot of the Five Elements Spirit Array bit by bit, and understood the formation of the Five Elements Spirit Array bit by bit..."


    "It''s only a little bit short, he really learned it, if it weren''t..."


    If not...


    The sect leader and elder at that time really learned how to deal with it...


    The elder''s eyes narrowed slightly, and he swallowed this sentence in his stomach.


    Master Liao was still a little unbelievable, "Refining Qi?"


    "Refining Qi!"


    Master Liao frowned and said, "The Five Elements Spirit Array, the first-grade thirteen-line pattern. Can he have the thirteen-line spiritual sense in the Qi Refining Period? This is impossible..." The Great Elder sighed, "His spiritual sense does not have the thirteen-line pattern, but he almost learned it..."


    Master Liao felt it was incredible:


    "If you don''t have enough spiritual consciousness, can you learn this formation?"


    The elder said with a solemn look:


    "Their sect has a heritage that can understand the origin and flow of formations. One can understand all kinds of ways. Even if they lack spiritual consciousness, they can still understand some formations that they could not understand!"


    Master Liao was stunned and lost his mind, "Can he have such a heritage?"


    The Great Elder looked awe-inspiring:


    "This is the most top-notch inheritance in the formation path, which requires extremely high understanding and top-level roots and bones. It is not something that ordinary monks can learn and learn."


    "And he is the best among all disciples of all generations."


    "So only in the realm of Qi refining can you understand it without any rules, and you almost understand it, the first-grade thirteen-patterned Five Elements Spirit Array!"


    The Great Elder sighed sadly:


    "Although the Five Elements Spirit Array of our Five Elements Sect is extremely rare, it is still much inferior to this true uneducated learning..."


    Chief Liao lowered his head, and there was greed and desire in his eyes.


    But his little thoughts cannot be hidden from the Great Elder.


    The elder''s face darkened and said in a cold voice:


    "Don''t have bad thoughts. Even if they are in a down-and-out position, we can''t offend us!"


    Chief Liao felt a stern and bowed his hands to say yes.


    But there was a little dissatisfaction in my eyes.


    President Liao pondered for a moment and said:


    "Great Elder, but this time, it''s not him who learned it... He came here to let his disciples learn it. Do we need to be so cautious?"


    The elder said lightly: "Be careful to sail the ten thousand-year-old ship."


    Chief Liao nodded, "The Great Elder said..."


    He recalled the scene in front of the mountain gate and sighed:


    "Among his disciples, that little formation master seems to be only in his teens, and he is already a first-grade formation master with a fixed grade. He is really talented..."


    "I don''t know where I found the good seedlings..."


    Why doesn’t we have no Five Elements School?


    Master Liao had some resentment.


    "After a teenager, a first-grade formation master..."


    The Great Elder frowned and shook his head, "This kind of talent is very good for ordinary monks, but in their sect, it is just ordinary."


    "Especially compared to those with the surname Zhuang back then, it is even more worth mentioning."


    President Liao was slightly stunned, thinking that the elder''s tone was so loud!


    First-grade formation master, not worth mentioning...


    But he didn''t dare to refute.


    He only has foundation building, and he is indeed not as knowledgeable as the great elder of the Jindan stage.


    The Great Elder thought for a moment and suddenly reminded:


    "What you should be more careful about than this small formation master is his senior brother and sister."


    “Senior brother and sister?”


    President Liao thought of Mr. Zhuang’s other two disciples.


    One with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and the other with lotus comes out of the water.


    It looks like a brother and sister. Although it is blocked by spiritual weapons and cannot see the truth of the spiritual sense, the demeanor of a big family, the strong cultivation, and the extraordinary temperament...


    It is flawless!


    He is the best seedling of Taoism!


    At the same time, you can tell at a glance that they are disciples who are not worthy of possession of the Five Elements Sect.


    The expression of the leader Liao also became solemn:


    "Great Elder, what do you mean is that they are Senior Zhuang and the real successor of the formation?"


    The Great Elder nodded and said, "Not bad."


    The elder pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up, as if he had insight into Mr. Zhuang’s intentions:


    "That little formation master is just the leader."


    "I am in my teens, the ninth level of Qi Refining, and the first-grade formation master wants to give us a warning."


    "But this small formation division should not be that important."


    "If he is really important, he will not dismount himself and will step forward and open the way."


    "It''s obvious that the really tricky one is the senior brother and sister of this small formation master."


    "His senior brother and sister are from a noble family and have a deeper cultivation than him, so the formation is naturally more advanced than him!"


    "And, there are two people."


    "If they really let them learn it, it is very likely that they will really learn the ultimate formation of our Five Elements Sect!"


    …


    The elder''s eyes were solemn, and the leader Liao looked worried.


    "Then the elder, what should we do? It''s impossible. I really stop him and prevent them from learning the formation, right?"


    To start a hand, it is equivalent to tearing the face apart.


    The result is hard to say.


    The elder was thick-skinned: "Drag first, drag it if you can, drag it until they lose patience."


    "What if you can''t hold it back?"


    The elder''s eyes were shining, "I can''t hold it back, so I''ll use other methods..."


    The leader Liao''s eyes moved slightly and he nodded.


    …


    The Five Elements School begins to delay time.


    Mr. Zhuang also looked leisurely and was not in a hurry at all.


    Mo Hua had no choice but to follow the master''s orders and started "playing" in the Five Elements Sect with his younger brother and sister.


    The Five Elements Sect is very large, with many caves, and even more caves than disciples...


    It seemed that it was very wide once, and there were so many spirit stones that could not be used up, so it was so squandering and building caves everywhere.


    In addition to the cave, other Taoist practice buildings, such as the practice room, meditation room, alchemy room, weapon room, array pavilion, etc., are also available.


    There are even a lot of buildings that are completely inappropriate.


    These buildings are neither used by monks nor used by monks, nor even of any function. The gate is closed and empty, and I don’t know what to build...


    Like most other sects, the Five Elements Sect is also divided into inner sects and outer sects.


    The inner sect is the main body of the sect.


    The inner disciples are one with the sect, and they all prosper and lose together.


    They studied the orthodox inheritance of the Five Elements Sect, followed the masters of the Five Elements Sect, bound them with the sect, and integrated their interests.


    The sect''s industries are also managed by inner disciples.


    The core positions of the sect are also held by inner disciples.


    Generally speaking, inner disciples are not allowed to leave the sect.


    The disciples of the outer sect don’t pay so much attention to it.


    They are more about crossing the sect and learning formations.


    The relationship with the sect is not strict; there is kindness, but not close.


    As long as you hand over the spirit stone, you can learn as long as you want, and you can leave if you don’t want to learn anymore. The sect is not restricted.


    The outer sect is more like an industry of the sect.


    The sect took out part of the inheritance and taught it to the outside world to expand the influence of the sect and earn Shuxiu and Spirit Stones.


    The Five Elements Sect is a third-grade sect, and it is very famous and is very expensive - at least for ink paintings, it is very expensive and he can''t afford it.


    The three of Mo Hua walked together and wandered around the Five Elements Sect.


    Most of the people I saw were elders and disciples of the inner sect.


    The elders in the sect turned a blind eye to them.


    On the contrary, some disciples, although they were instructed by the elders, would secretly point fingers and talk to them behind their backs without knowing the inside story.


    Mo Hua has a strong sense of spiritual consciousness, so they can hear clearly what they say behind their backs.


    What surprised Mo Hua was that the male disciples were hostile to them, but the female disciples were fine.


    Male disciples generally say unhappy:


    "It''s that little devil, riding a horse, stomping the threshold, and swaggering into the mountain gate, leaving the elders in the gate dull face!"


    “So arrogant!”


    "Relying on his first-grade formation master, he is arrogant!"


    "His senior brother, the one in white, is even more arrogant than him!"


    "I heard that there are several senior brothers in the sect who want to talk to him, but he ignores them."


    "No, I heard that there were several senior brothers who asked him to compete with each other, but he beat him up!"


    "That''s because he concealed his cultivation and won''t win!"


    "Although he has the ability to refine Qi, he doesn''t say it!"


    “It’s really despicable!”


    …


    The male disciple was filled with righteous indignation.


    What the female disciple said was another sentence:


    "That young man in white is so handsome!"


    "I heard that I am from a noble family..."


    "No wonder, your temperament is different at first glance."


    "I don''t know which aristocratic family it is. It''s not far away. If you marry, can you come back and have a look..."


    "There is also that little formation master, white and tender, and very cute!"


    "I heard that I am still a first-grade formation master."


    “So amazing!”


    …


    Mo Hua heard these words, and the male disciples also heard them.


    Mo Hua and them were therefore even more hostile to male disciples...


    Mo Hua sighed helplessly.
