2197 Zhang Feng’s visit (1)
Zhang Feng sat there with a frown. Zhao Hai had been in closed-door cultivation for half a year. Naturally, he had not received any pills or supplies for half a year. This made his plan not go very smoothly.
However, Zhang Feng did not blame Zhao Hai for this. After all, closed-door cultivation was very important to a cultivator. She was just worried that something might happen to Zhao Hai. Fortunately, the undead creatures were still outside Zhao Hai’s cave. Otherwise, he would be even more worried.
However, he was still a little anxious. He didn’t know when Zhao Hai would come out of seclusion. If Zhao Hai went into seclusion for a few years, it would greatly affect his plans.
Just as Zhang Feng was thinking about this, Zhang Hao’s voice came from outside the door. He said, ” “Senior brother, little hai has sent a letter. He has come out of seclusion.”
Zhang Feng was stunned and stood up immediately. Without waiting for Zhang Hao to come in, she quickly walked out and said in a deep voice, ” “Follow me.” After they entered the teleportation formation, they arrived at the invisible Valley in a flash of white light.
As soon as the two of them appeared at the invisible Valley, they saw Zhao Hai standing there waiting for them. Upon seeing them, Zhao Hai’s face revealed a smile. He came forward and greeted the two of them, ” “Zhao Hai greets the two senior brothers.”
Zhang Feng looked at Zhao Hai and smiled. &Quot; “Not bad, you’ve improved quite a bit. It seems that this closed-door training was effective. That’s good. Let’s go in and talk.” &Quot; yes, ” Zhao Hai replied and led the two into the cave.
After the three of them sat down in the cave, Zhang Feng said, ” “Little hai, I’m very worried about you. This time’s closed door training was too sudden. Next time, you have to tell me so that I can send someone to protect you.”
Zhao Hai quickly smiled. &Quot; thank you, senior brother Zhang. Actually, I had a sudden realization this time, so I went into seclusion. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely let you know next time. &Quot;
Zhang Feng nodded and said in a deep voice, ” that’s good. I can see that you’ve gained a lot from your closed-door cultivation. This is good. Cultivators should focus on cultivation. &Quot;
Zhao Hai replied, then looked up at Zhang Feng and said, ” “Senior brother, can you find some formations that are unique to the cultivation world? I want to take a look, it’s useful.”
Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment before she nodded and said, ” “There’s nothing we can do about that. The sect has a special formation Atlas, and the formation there is very complete. I’ll have them send it over to you that day. You’re going to refine a magic tool?”
“There’s no need for that,” Zhao Hai shook his head,”I just like to study formations.”
Zhang Feng nodded. &Quot; okay, I’ll send you the array. But you have to be careful too. Don’t delay your cultivation because of studying these things, understand? ” Zhao Hai nodded.
Zhang Feng said in a deep voice, ” it’ll be half a year after you finish your training. In two months ‘time, it’ll be the competition between the inner and outer disciples. You have to prepare well. During the competition, don’t be too conspicuous and don’t lose too badly. Do you understand? ”
Zhao Hai really did know about this outer disciple competition. In fact, in the black Tiger Gang, whether it was the outer disciples, inner disciples, or even the core disciples, there would be a competition. It was usually held once a year. The top ten outer disciples could enter the inner sect, while the bottom ten of the inner disciple competition had two more chances. If the bottom ten were ranked three times in a row, they would be demoted to the outer disciple. The same was true for the outer disciple. The top ten servant disciples would be promoted to outer disciples, while the top ten inner disciples would be promoted to core disciples. Core disciples would not be demoted.
Because reaching the level of a core disciple already required the sect to put in a lot of effort. If they were demoted from a core disciple to an inner disciple, their cultivation would most likely regress, and then the loss would outweigh the gain.
However, although there would not be any demotion in the great competition of the core disciples, there was a difference in the treatment. The last ten core disciples would receive the same treatment as the inner disciples, while the top ten core disciples would have the right to build their own sects and use the Tiger boats.
The black Tiger Gang had hundreds of millions of service disciples and millions of outer disciples. One could imagine how fierce the competition was for the top ten among millions of people. What Zhang Feng meant was that Zhao Hai should not fight for the top ten, but he should not end up in the last ten either.
Zhao Hai really didn’t want to compete for the top ten. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, nor that he didn’t think he was strong enough. It was just not the time yet.
If he were to become an inner sect disciple in his first year in the cultivation world, it would definitely cause a sensation. It wouldn’t do him any good.
Zhao Hai nodded at Zhang Feng and said, ” &Quot; yes, don’t worry, senior brother. I know what to do. &Quot;
Zhang Feng turned to Zhang Hao and said, ” Xiao Hao, you don’t have to fight for it this time. I will promote you directly to the inner sect. Don’t worry. &Quot;
Zhang Hao was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed. He bowed to Zhang Feng and said,”Thank you, senior brother.” Zhang Feng only nodded. If he wanted to promote Zhang Hao to an inner sect disciple, it was completely possible, because he had opened his own sect.
In the black Tiger Gang, after the core disciples opened their own sect, they could recruit 1000 handyman disciples, 300 outer disciples, and 100 inner disciples. Each year, they had the authority to let 10 handyman disciples become outer disciples, 3 outer disciples become inner disciples, and even 1 inner disciple become a core disciple. However, in order to turn an inner disciple into a core disciple, they had to go through a test. There was no need for an assessment.
In the entire Black Tiger Gang, other than some sect-opening elders, only the top ten core disciples and Zhang Feng had such power, and this power gave them the opportunity to openly rope in inner and outer sect disciples.
Besides not being able to use the tigerboat, Zhang Feng was treated the same as the core disciples. This was why the top ten core disciples always targeted him and Zhang Feng.
In Zhang Feng’s opinion, he had the ability to become one of the top ten core disciples, so he should have the right to use the tigerboat. However, he did not have the right to use the tigerboat, which made Zhang Feng hate the top ten core disciples.
In the eyes of the top ten core disciples, Zhang Feng, the number one inner disciple, had no right to open the mountain Gate. However, he did it, which was a provocation to them. Because of this, the conflict between the two sides became deeper and deeper.
Zhang Feng turned to Zhao Hai and said, ” little hai, because you are here, this bujian Valley is very important to me. That’s why I have to keep you here. But don’t worry, I will make you an inner disciple or a core disciple in the future. I, Zhang Feng, am not a person who will kill the donkey after it has served its purpose. &Quot;
“Yes, senior brother. Don’t worry, I understand,” Zhao Hai bowed.
Zhang Feng looked at the time and said, ” I’ll have Xiao Hao send you the formation map you want in two days. I can’t stay here for long. Be careful. &Quot;
&Quot; yes, ” Zhao Hai replied. &Quot; don’t worry, senior brother. There won’t be any problems here. &Quot; Zhang Feng nodded, stood up, and left.
Seeing the two of them leave in the formation, Zhao Hai waved his hand and Laura and the others appeared beside him. Laura said to Zhao Hai, ” “Big brother hai, what do you want the cultivation world’s array for?”
Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; of course we’re going to use it. The cultivation world is one level higher than the world of cultivators. I believe the Dharma comparisons used here will be better than the ones in the lower realm. If we can turn the Dharma arrays they use here into three-dimensional Dharma arrays, it will be very useful for us. &Quot;
Lola nodded and asked in confusion, ” “Then why did you call us out, big brother hai?”
“What’s wrong?” Zhao Hai smiled. Don’t you guys feel annoyed staying in the space all the time? I’m planning to go out with you guys to play. The black Tiger Gang’s territory is so big, it shouldn’t be hard to find a fun place, right?”
Hearing Zhao Hai’s words, Laura and the others were dazed for a moment before becoming overjoyed. Cai ‘er said,”Big brother hai, I want to go to the seven-colored Flower Valley.” “Alright, let’s go to the seven-colored Flower Valley,” Zhao Hai nodded.
The seven-colored Flower Valley was a forbidden area in the black Tiger Gang’s territory. It was a very large Valley, but there were seven-colored flowers growing in that Valley. These seven-colored flowers were not as big as Cai ‘er’s body, and the flowers that bloomed were also not as big as Cai’ er’s body. However, the toxicity of this flower was very terrifying. An ordinary golden core cultivator would die from poisoning there. Such a powerful poison was really rare, so the seven-colored Flower Valley slowly became a forbidden area.
Of course, this so-called prohibition was only relative. From time to time, some people would go to the seven-colored Flower Valley. However, most of the people who went there were cultivators above the Golden core stage. They went there to pick some seven-colored flowers and bring them back to concoct poison.
Cai ‘er had already stored the seven-colored Flower Valley in her spatial zone. As a seven-colored flower, she liked the valley even more. Therefore, when she heard that Zhao Hai was going out to play, she was the first one to say that he wanted to go there. Laura and the others naturally didn’t object.
Zhao Hai waved his hand, and the group disappeared. In the next moment, they appeared in a Valley. The valley was huge, and there were mountains thousands of meters high on all four sides of the valley. It was also because of these mountains that the valley was warm all year round.
The climate was warm and the flowers were blooming everywhere. It was simply too beautiful. No one would want to leave this place, but if you were below the Golden core stage, you wouldn’t be able to leave even if you wanted.
As soon as they landed in the valley, a notification sound came from the space. The valley was filled with poisonous gas, and they were all poisoned. Fortunately, the antidote appeared in the space. They drank a cup each and were fine.
They had always seen the seven-colored flowers in the medium. Cai ‘er’s body was still coiled up in the villa. However, when they saw the scenery here, Laura and the others couldn’t help but cheer. They landed in the valley and kept flying around the seven-colored flowers like beautiful butterflies.
Although the seven-colored flowers in the valley were poisonous, they were very fragrant. The fragrance wasn’t very strong, but it was very pleasant. Of course, if you couldn’t detoxify it, this fragrance would be a curse.
Zhao Hai looked at them and stood to the side, smiling. The valley became incomparably beautiful at that moment, like a poem, like a painting!
