I have a mirror of two realms

Chapter 59 The Nine-Rank System of the Great Zhou Dynasty
After some small calculations, Wang Teng succeeded in making Yu Jizi rely on him to a certain extent.

In fact, this principle is very simple. If you can’t use your brain, then listen to other people’s opinions!
But Wang Teng obviously had more than that on his mind.

In the subsequent exchanges, he seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if he had something to hide.

"Brother Taoist has something to say, but there is no harm in saying it. A poor Taoist will definitely tell you everything he knows."

Yu Jizi's face straightened up and she asked first.

"this one"

Wang Teng smiled: "I would like to ask Taoist Brother Yujizi, what is the current general situation in the world and the situation in Liangzhou?"

He deliberately took a detour and waited for Yu Jizi to take the bait again.

"Uh"

Yu Jizi's face froze, and she scratched her head and couldn't answer.

"Forget it, I would like to ask Brother Dao one more question.

May I ask how the cultivation of ancient Dharma and new Dharma are differentiated in terms of realm? "

Wang Teng smiled slightly, did not continue to embarrass Yu Jizi, and asked his question directly.

He knew very well that if Yu Jizi could see through the general trend of the world and the situation in Liangzhou, why would he go to a desolate and remote place like Qingyuan County?
Therefore, his first question was purely intentional, paving the way for his next questions.

"Brother Hu Dao, this is the right person to ask!"

Yujizi let out a long breath and replied with a mysterious face: "As for the difference between the ancient method and the new method, if it exists, there is it; if it does not exist, it does not exist."

"Oh?"

Wang Teng was overjoyed and asked enthusiastically: "Why is this? I hope the Taoist priest will give you some advice."

"Haha, brother Taoist, you are too polite, but this is not a lesson."

Yu Jizi laughed and replied with a lively voice: "The practice of ancient methods has always been judged by magic power and Taoism. The realm of cultivation is like paper. In the eyes of ancient monks, it has always been unworthy of mention."

"The practice of the new method is usually based on one's own realm. After all, the new method does not pay attention to magic power or Taoism, but only pays attention to one's own cultivation realm. The higher the cultivation realm of the new method monks, the stronger their strength will naturally be."

Speaking of this, Yu Jizi became more enthusiastic: "But there are exceptions. For example, New Law monks have some good magic weapons, talismans, etc., and they can often fight across the ranks.

But this is usually an exclusive benefit for those disciples of high-level sects. It is completely different from monks from small sects or casual cultivators like us. "

"So, isn't there a clear concept of hierarchy here?"

Wang Teng seemed to understand, but his doubts only deepened.

"Except for the nine-grade system promulgated by the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is probably difficult to make a specific comparison."

Yujizi shook his head and gave a vague answer.

Nine-grade system?
Wang Teng's mind was a little swollen, and he felt that there were too many things that he had never heard of.

First it was the Demon Suppressor, then the City God, and now it is the Nine-Rank System of Lao Shizi. What on earth is the Great Zhou court going to do?
The imperial court cannot suppress the world with the Demon Suppression Division, supplement it with local city gods to protect the people, and then use the nine-level system to restrain the sects!

Thinking of this, Wang Teng couldn't help but feel a chill running down his spine.

If it was as he suspected, the game played by the Zhou court was not an ordinary one!

"Taoist Priest, what's going on with the Demon Suppressor and the City God?"

Wang Teng gathered his thoughts and gave full play to the spirit of asking questions when you don't understand.

"Demon Suppression Division? Brother Dao, it's better that we talk less about it."

Yu Jizi looked strange and turned to another question: "The City God is a god canonized by the imperial court. He relies on the power of incense and merit to practice. It is another practice system." "The power of incense and merit. If it is here If distracting thoughts are mixed into it, wouldn’t it cause the monks who follow this system to become insane?”

Wang Teng thought of the Western gods in modern society. They all seemed to follow the path of believers, and they were subdivided into several levels.

"Brother Taoist, this is totally wrong!"

Yu Jizi waved his hand with a solemn expression: "The power of incense and wish is the most pure power of the mind and soul. It can be easily identified by gods. How could it be faked?"

Okay, I'm showing my timidity again.

Wang Teng smiled awkwardly but politely.

He once again brought the topic back to the nine-grade system: "Taoist Master, according to the division of the imperial court's nine-grade system, which grade does the Heart-Eating Corpse Demon belong to?"

"Strictly speaking, the Heart-Eating Corpse Demon should be ranked at the eighth level, but some seventh-level experts may not be its opponents."

Yujizi pondered for a long time, and once again gave a plausible answer.

But this time Wang Teng didn't ask any more questions, and he almost understood the meaning of Yu Jizi's words in an instant.

The Heart-Eating Corpse Demon should be the top master among the eighth-level masters. Some seventh-level experts who are not good at dealing with it may also fall in front of it.

Without the control of Yu Jizi's Soul Suppressing Talisman Array, Wang Teng himself might not be a match for the Heart-Eating Corpse Demon.

In other words, he must at least use all his cards before he can defeat the Heart-Eating Corpse Demon, instead of hiding many tricks like now.

"In other words, the nine-grade system promulgated by the imperial court is essentially measured by comprehensive strength. Monks with outstanding strength in a certain aspect are likely to jump out of this barrier?"

Wang Teng looked thoughtful and briefly expressed his understanding of the Nine-Rank System.

"That's pretty much what it means."

Yu Jizi nodded, and then continued to talk about the advantages of ancient methods: "Actually, if you want to make a more precise comparison, it is usually more straightforward to use the magic power of ancient methods and the evil practices of demons."

"I would like to hear more about it!"

Wang Teng's lips curled up, and his curiosity suddenly aroused.

"No matter whether the ancient monks or the new monks, including those who follow other routes of martial arts, gods, evil spirits, etc., in fact, they cannot escape the barriers of magic power and Taoism."

Yujizi felt a little thirsty when he said this, so he took a sip of the tea.

Then he continued: "New method monks often have their own cultivation limits when practicing qi, foundation building, golden elixir, etc., which are completely consistent with the magic power and Taoism of ancient method monks, and are also applicable to blood and energy martial arts and demons and evil spirits. "

"This Yujizi doesn't seem to have a high level of cultivation, but he has a lot of knowledge. This time he really asked the right person!"

Wang Teng was very fascinated by what he heard, and this thought couldn't help but emerge in his heart.

For him, he never misses an opportunity to gain new knowledge.

"Pindao also has a partial understanding of the specific comparison, so he won't show off his shame in front of Brother Taoist."

Yujizi smiled and ended the explanation like an anticlimax.

"After hearing what I said, I was enlightened. Thank you for the Taoist Master's advice!"

Wang Teng stood up and thanked him with his hands, his sincerity beyond words.

Seeing that it was getting late outside, he invited Yu Jizi to stay in his house temporarily.

Then he ordered Aunt Hong Bohong to serve Taoist Yujizi well.
