Chapter 45 Sect Privileges
When the elders heard that the monthly salary was going to increase, they were secretly delighted and immediately became motivated! They agreed.
"Well! Ye Ling must be rewarded! When Elder Liu of the Immortal Sect asks about it in the future, we can have an explanation."
"Hehe, in my opinion, your disciple Ye Ling has made great contributions to the sect. In addition to being in charge of the ice cave, he will not have to take on sect tasks in the future!"
"Yes, I suggest that the sect master can also include Ye Ling in the sect's elite disciples and enjoy more resources for cultivating immortals!"
Sect Master Zhao nodded repeatedly and smiled from ear to ear. His personal disciple Ye Ling showed his big face, which made him, as a master, also proud.
At this time, the sect's foundation building elder Zhou Chong had a gloomy face. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with lingering fear and immediately called his disciple Li Bao. He took out the words that Elder Liu of the Immortal Sect scolded him on this stupid disciple.
"You idiot! I sent you to monitor Ye Ling, how did you monitor him! Huh? Now it's good, even the elders of the Golden Core of the Immortal Sect know about it!"
Li Bao had a bitter face and could only endure Zhou Chong's anger, but he was secretly thinking about how to please his master Ye Ling. Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said embarrassedly: "Master is right! I will definitely make up for my mistakes. I will go find Ye Ling now!"
Zhou Chong said angrily: "What? You useless! Do you want to cause trouble for me? Don't you know that Ye Ling is now a popular person in front of the elders of the Golden Core of the Immortal Sect? If there is anything wrong with him, the Golden Core of the Immortal Sect will not be able to help him. The elder is going to hold me accountable!"
Li Bao nodded in a serious tone and said, "Disciple understands. Disciple intends to go and plead guilty to Senior Brother Ye! Let him eliminate his hostility towards Master. Even if the elders of the Immortal Sect ask about it one day, Master will be pleased."
Zhou Chong pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Well! It makes sense, that's about right. Go ahead. If you mess things up again and provoke the surname Ye, watch out for your head!"
"Yes, yes! Disciple will definitely please Senior Brother Ye. Disciple will take his leave!"
Li Bao laughed secretly in his heart, bid farewell to Zhou Chong, and secretly walked through the curved corridor to find the owner Ye Ling in the cave.
As soon as he reached the grass on the first floor of the cave, someone called him from afar: "Senior Brother Li!"
Li Bao was slightly startled. He had the lowest cultivation among the inner disciples who entered the cave, and someone called him Senior Brother, which surprised him a little. He quickly looked in the direction of the voice. It turned out to be Sun Erhu, an outer disciple guarding the Nangu herb garden. Li Bao couldn't help but wonder: "Sun Erhu, how did you come here? The sect master ordered that all outer disciples stay in the medicine valley, who was so bold to let you in?"
Sun Erhu nodded and bowed with a smile on his face: "Brother Li, you don't know, I told the inner disciples that it was Brother Ye Lingye who asked me to come, so they let me come and let me into the cave. So I was about to go find Brother Ye, but I was a step late! I heard that Brother Ye and his men had already flown to the ice cave in the dark forest with Elder Xuanqing's flying sword. I was just about to find Brother Ye. How can we get to the ice cave if there are monsters along the way? "
Li Bao sighed and said, "Isn't it? I was just about to go to see Senior Brother Ye. From what you said, with our cultivation level, we can never go deeper into the cave?"
Sun Erhu smiled and said, "I know Senior Brother Li has a wide range of contacts. Why don't you invite a few elite disciples of the sect and let them take us to visit Senior Brother Ye."
"That's the only way!" Li Bao nodded, and went with Sun Erhu to ask the elite disciples of the sect to escort them.
Several elite disciples in the late stage of Qi training were not happy to see that their cultivation level was too low.
In the end, Sun Erhu persuaded them, saying that he had a good relationship with Senior Brother Ye Ling, and took him to the ice cave, or if Senior Brother Ye was happy, he would let them go into the ice cave for training.
Li Bao also hurriedly said: "Yes, I have a good relationship with Senior Brother Ye. If you are willing to escort us, we will persuade Senior Brother Ye to allow you to enter the cave for training."
When these elite disciples heard this, they all showed joy on their faces. At this time, Zhuang Liangshou, the disciple of the sect master who came in a hurry, also came to seek the protection of the senior brothers in the late stage of Qi training. He said that he had the sect master's decree and wanted to go to the ice cave to see Ye Ling.
The group followed the map and jade slips and headed deep into the cave. They walked for dozens of miles. To their surprise, when they arrived at the dark forest covered with white snow, they found a lot of corpses of third-level monsters. Some of the fellow disciples who came earlier were collecting the corpses of the monsters and picking up valuable materials.
Sun Erhu's eyes lit up when he saw the corpses of monsters all over the ground, but Li Bao pulled him back: "Seeing Brother Ye is important! These dead monster materials can be picked up later."
Most of the sect's elite disciples looked down on the corpses of monsters all over the ground, and only yearned for the mysterious second-layer ice cave in the cave, and also urged to go quickly.
When they arrived at the entrance of the ice cave, there was a restriction blocking it, and no one could get in. While everyone admired the entrance restriction set up by the Jindan elder of the Xianmen, they looked for Ye Ling and others.
An elite disciple in the late stage of Qi training had sharp eyes and looked into the cave, saying happily: "Look! There seems to be a newly opened cave under the ice mound inside. Isn't the one who cleaned up the cave He Jingsheng, a disciple of Elder Tan? Why can't I see Ye Ling? Hey! Brother He!"
He Jingsheng heard someone calling outside the ice cave, asked the reason in the restriction at the entrance of the cave, and hurried to Ye Ling's Bingyan Cave to report.
Ye Ling was sitting cross-legged in the cave, studying the beast-taming art given to him by Elder Liu of the Immortal Sect. Upon hearing He Jingsheng's report, Ye Ling frowned slightly and thought to himself, "If there are fellow disciples who want to enter the ice cave to practice every day and ask him to open the ice cave restrictions, it will be very troublesome! It would be better to entrust the power of managing the ice cave to He Jingsheng or Meng Chang."
Thinking of this, Ye Ling picked up the forbidden jade slip, straightened his clothes, left the cave, and arrived at the entrance of the ice cave with He Jingsheng.
Ye Ling's appearance immediately aroused cheers from everyone outside the Ice Cave Forbidden Formation, all looking to please!
Even those elite disciples who are in the later stages of Qi training no longer dare to call themselves senior brothers. When they see Ye Ling, they all call him Brother Ye very politely!
When Ye Ling saw Li Bao and Sun Erhu coming with him, he guessed a little in advance and pursed his lips. When he saw Zhuang Liangshou, a direct disciple of the sect master, he was slightly surprised, but he still raised his hands and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Zhuang, you are here too!"
Zhuang Liangshou hurriedly returned the gift with his fists clasped. He was envious of Ye Ling and said with a smile: "Brother Ye, you're welcome! Now Brother Ye is also at the fifth level of Qi training, and he is highly regarded by the elders and masters of the immortal sect. My younger brother Gan Ju Ye I hope Brother Ye will take care of you in the future, haha. I’m here to convey the master’s decree. Brother Ye is richly rewarded! I wonder if I can go into the ice cave?”
His words immediately attracted the elite disciples who came with him, and they rushed to say:
"Brother Ye! I heard that only twenty people are allowed to enter the ice cave to practice every day. We all came here first and have enough cultivation. Can we enter the cave?"
"Hehe, I congratulate Brother Ye for taking charge of the ice cave and getting a generous reward from the sect, so please let me in!"
Ye Ling glanced at He Jingsheng and said through his spiritual consciousness: "Brother He! Tell them about the need for spiritual stones to maintain the forbidden formation."
He Jingsheng understood and hurriedly said: "Don't shout, everyone, listen to me! The forbidden formation at the entrance of the ice cave and the formation flag set up by Elder Xuanqing inside both require spiritual stones to maintain operation. Any disciple who enters the cave to practice , I have to hand over some spiritual stones, right?”
Ye Ling glanced at Li Bao and Sun Erhu who were outside the ban.
The two of them were so speculative and flexible in their thinking. They quickly responded: "Yes! Yes, this request is not too much! The senior brothers who went into the ice cave to practice should hand over some spiritual stones to pay for the maintenance of the formation light curtain."
All the elite disciples of the sect have some spiritual stones on hand, but they are afraid that they cannot afford them. If they can't earn these by hunting monsters and mining spiritual grass and minerals in the ice cave, wouldn't it be a loss? They all looked at Ye Ling eagerly and asked: "Brother Ye, how much do you want to pay? We still have some spiritual stones."
Ye Ling actually doesn't care about the number of spirit stones. There are 300,000 spirit stones in his Immortal Mansion Jade Pendant, and he still cares about maintaining the formation. Ye Ling just used this excuse to make excuses!
Ye Ling smiled slightly and said: "You are all my senior brothers, how can I have the nerve to ask you for spiritual stones! These spiritual stones will be reported to the master by me or Senior Brother Zhuang and asked by the sect to distribute them. You don't need to hand over many. Spiritual stones! If you feel sorry for me, you can share some of the spiritual grass and spiritual flowers you gained from practicing in the ice cave, which shows your kindness!"
The elite disciples outside the entrance of the ice cave were overjoyed and agreed repeatedly, praising Ye Ling for his loyalty.
Sun Erhu and Li Bao looked at each other. They had discussed along the way and wanted to get a good job in the ice cave. Unexpectedly, Ye Ling did not accept their money to enter the cave! However, the two of them thought about it again. The rules set by Ye Ling allowed the elite disciples to go into the cave to practice and keep some of what they gained. It seemed that the method was more clever! It’s more exciting than a fixed number of spirit stones! The profit was just a lot more, so the two of them smiled knowingly and looked at Ye Ling with admiration.
Ye Ling held the forbidden jade slip, opened the entrance to the ice cave, and let everyone in. These fellow disciples are all very grateful and wish they could go and practice immediately.
At this time, Zhuang Liangshou formally congratulated Ye Ling: "Master said that Brother Ye followed the elder Jindan of the Immortal Sect to occupy these natural caves and made great contributions to the Immortal Sect and our Yaogu Sect. In the name of the sect leader, I want to reward Brother Ye heavily!"
All the elite disciples who entered the cave quickly stopped and listened. Even Meng Chang and others from Bingyan Cave heard their loud noises and came to watch the excitement, and they also listened attentively.
"The sect leader said that Brother Ye does not need to receive sect tasks from now on! From now on, he will be included in the sect's elite disciples and enjoy all the benefits of the sect's elite disciples! The sect leader also said that brother Ye can return to the Yaogu Sect hall to find him at any time. There is also a big reward! According to my guess, it must be top-quality elixirs, magic weapons, robes and other items. Hehe, congratulations to Brother Ye!"
