Dream Journey from Shaolin

Chapter 191
"Junior Sister Yuanjin, Junior Brother Yuanhua, what are you talking about?"

At this time, Tianzhu Peak's big brother Yuan Zhuo walked over, and asked Chen Jinyun and Jiang Ming in a soft tone,

"Brother Yuan Zhuo!"

"Brother Yuan Zhuo!"

Chen Jinyun led Jiang Ming to make a lecture to Yuan Zhuo first, and then replied:
"My junior brother and I are talking about something about the Fucheng Taoist Competition!"

Yuan Zhuo, senior brother of Tianzhu Peak, according to senior sister Chen Jinyun's previous gossip, is the oldest and highest cultivation among the senior senior brothers and sisters of Qifeng,

Now he has practiced Taoism for more than 50 years, and he is also in his sixties. It can be said that in the entire Xuanmu Sect, except for the head and elders, he is the most senior.

However, he is modest and courteous, even when dealing with Jiang Ming, who is only fifteen or sixteen years old, he never puts on airs, and seems to have a crush on Yuan Mei, the elder sister of Beizhu Peak,
Of course, this is just Chen Jinyun's guess, whether it is true or not is still debatable.

However, after the previous big competition and the current contact with the disciples of the Seven Peaks of the Xuanmu Sect on the dharma boat, Jiang Ming found that most of the disciples seemed to be relatively mild in character.

Although there are occasional disputes because of some spiritual problems, but basically stop at the mouth,

Moreover, it is rare for Jiang Ming to feel a series of imaginations that are very common in groups, such as intrigue, cynicism, and hypocritical flattery.
Most of these disciples of Xuanmuzong gave Jiang Ming the feeling of scientists who were obsessed with research in the previous life, but the scientists in the previous life were all immersed in the study of science, while they were immersed in the study of Taoism and the power of nature.
Moreover, this phenomenon is more common in the higher-level Taoists.
Jiang Ming guessed that it might be because of the Taoist way of cultivation, which is to comprehend the natural power of heaven and earth, to integrate into nature as much as possible,
And the Xuanmu sect cultivates more wood elements, and the most contacted is the green energy of vitality contained in the sky and the earth.
Therefore, under the long-term subtle influence, the personality will naturally be affected to a certain extent.

At the same time, Jiang Ming finally understood why the Daoist sect was so powerful but was replaced by a rising star court.

Maybe it's not only because of the strength of the imperial court, but also because most Taoists are not too keen on rights after they cultivated the power of heaven and earth with the Taoist sect, apart from studying Taoism.

You know, although the Confucians of Confucianism cultivate righteousness, but scholars, no matter how righteous they are, they always have all kinds of strategies in their minds, and they are the best at them.

For example, a Taoist is equivalent to a scientist in a previous life, and a Confucian is equivalent to a politician in a previous life. No matter how good a scientist is, he cannot become the leader of a power.

Of course, the Taoist’s practice method is only a potential influence, but it is not absolute. For those who are evil in nature, or have already struggled in the mortal world, and have a lot of experience, the effect may not be so good.

There are exceptions to everything!
Thinking of this, Jiang Ming thought of his unreliable master, Mu Xuanji, who might be considered a typical Taoist. Closed-door practice,
Seeing Chen Jinyun and Jiang Ming salute to him, Yuan Zhuo quickly waved his hands, indicating that you are welcome, then sighed and said:
"Fucheng Daoist Dabi! That's really a place where geniuses gather!"

"By the way, brother should have participated many times. Can you tell me about the strength of other sects?"

At this time, Chen Jinyun suddenly remembered that Yuan Zhuo, who had been the leader of the Xuanmu sect for the past 30 to [-] years, seemed to have participated in many prefectural competitions.

Although I haven't won the first place and won the Pojing Pill, I should have some understanding of the strength of Taoists from other sects every time I participate.

This time her goal is to break through the realm pill, which is to break through the sixth rank, so she still wants to know the strength of other sect disciples in advance.

Yuan Zhuo shook his head, with a slightly wry smile on the corner of his mouth, and said:
"I participated once at the ninth rank, and again at the eighth rank, and at the seventh rank, this is already the second time.
However, when I participated in the first three times, no matter whether it was the ninth rank, eighth rank, or seventh rank, I never entered the top ten once!
So junior sister, I advise you not to pay too much attention to it. You know, the main purpose of our Xuanmu sect sending disciples to Fucheng to compete is to gain knowledge and communicate with more like-minded fellow Taoists! "

After Yuan Zhuo left, Jiang Ming said with some doubts:
"Elder Sister, is the strength of our Xuanmu Sect the bottom among the six major sects in Fucheng?"

The most powerful elder brother of Xuanmuzong couldn't even get into the top ten of the Fucheng Grand Competition, which made Jiang Ming wonder if the overall strength of Xuanmuzong was worse than the other five sects.
Chen Jinyun stared,
"How is it possible? In terms of overall strength, my Xuanmu Sect is ranked among the top three among the six major sects in Fucheng!"

She then explained:
"Junior brother, I know you have heard the words of senior brother just now, so you feel a little confused. In fact, I think it is normal. I knew that senior brother Yuan Zhuo hadn't made it to the top three, but I didn't expect that he hadn't made it to the top ten.

In terms of individual combat ability, our Xuanmu sect is relatively weak against the other four sects except for the Taoists of Feiliumen.

Because our Xuanmu Sect majors in the wood system, and the Taoism tends to be entangled, there are not many Taoism with strong lethality, while the Tianlei Sect majors in the Thunder system, the Yangjian Pavilion majors in the Metal system, and the Yanyang Temple majors in the Fire system. The three sects are all famous for their powerful attacking and killing abilities in Taoism.
Pan Shigu majored in the soil system. Although the lethality of Taoism is not strong, it is not weak, and their Taoists are famous for their defensive Taoism.

The last one is Feiliumen, who majors in the water system. He has average attack power and average defense power of Taoism, but he is good at healing Taoism, so although his combat power is not strong, he is very popular! "

"Then since our Xuanmu sect's Taoism ranks last in combat ability, why can our overall strength be ranked in the top three of the six avenue gates in Fucheng?"

Jiang Ming was a little confused. Isn't this contradictory?

Chen Jinyun saw Jiang Ming's puzzled face, raised his brows, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a proud smile:

"Because we have a lot of people in Xuanmu Sect! The overall number of Taoists in our Xuanmu Sect is nearly twice that of other sects. Although our individual strength is not as good as them, in general, our strength is more than theirs. Quite a few!"

The quality is not enough, the quantity comes together!
Jiang Ming instantly understood what was going on,

A seventh-rank wood Taoist cannot beat a seventh-rank fire Taoist, but two seventh-rank wood Taoists will definitely crush a seventh-rank fire Taoist,
"But, why don't other sects recruit more disciples to train them? Could it be that there are far more children with wood aptitude in Zhentian Mansion every year than those from other five departments?"

Jiang Ming changed his mind and had new questions flooding his mind,

There are many people and great strength, and other Taoist techniques are obviously more powerful, so they must be the first choice, and it is impossible not to recruit disciples.
