Chapter 242: Xuan Fang Sect
Through this post, Jinjiu learned a lot about the metaphysics exchange conference.
The purpose of this metaphysics exchange conference is the same as its name, which is mainly to allow domestic metaphysics masters to come and exchange ideas.
Competitions are held at every metaphysics exchange conference. There are many contents in the competitions, some are direct exchanges of metaphysical techniques, some are competitions to see who has more powerful talisman paper, and some are competitions to see who has a higher level magic weapon... In short, they all involve these things.
Since it is a competition, there will naturally be winners and losers.
Different competitions will produce multiple first place winners, and the first place winner will receive rewards from the organizer.
The rewards that each first place winner can get are different. For example, the first place reward for the sparring competition is usually a magic weapon; the first place reward for the talisman paper competition is either top-grade yellow paper or top-grade cinnabar...
These rewards will be somewhat related to the content of the competition. All in all, it is quite interesting.
As for who organized the Metaphysics Exchange Conference and why it was such a big event, Jinjiu also found the answer in the post.
The organizer of the Metaphysics Exchange Conference is not official, but a sect called "Xuanfang Sect". This sect is not the most powerful in the domestic metaphysics circle, but it is definitely the most respected.
This is because the ancestor of Xuanfang Sect is said to be the only one who successfully ascended to heaven after the collapse of spiritual energy.
Jinjiu was somewhat interested in this, so he went out of his way to learn about this "Xuanfang Sect".
The Xuanfang Sect once had an exceptionally superior status because it had an ancestor who had ascended to heaven.
However, after the ancestor ascended to heaven, the Xuanfang Sect, which was originally the largest sect in the metaphysical world, suddenly became low-key, no longer accepting disciples, and no longer appeared in the world.
Some people think that they have other intentions, others say that it is because the ancestor of Xuan Fang Sect ascended to heaven, and there are no masters to protect the sect. Xuan Fang Sect is afraid that the things in their sect will be stolen and they will be unable to resist, so they gradually keep a low profile.
Because of this reason, many people covet the things in Xuanfang Sect.
But the first person who took action had not even had time to step into Xuanfang Sect, and even the people of Xuanfang Sect did not notice his arrival, this person had already been struck to death by lightning.
That's right, he was struck to death by lightning.
This man's death caused a huge uproar, and the flames of hope in many thoughtful people were extinguished.
However, there are always those who are not afraid of death, or who think they are smart and say that all of this is directed and acted by Xuanfang Sect for the purpose of self-preservation. Many people think that it makes sense, so many people come one after another to invade Xuanfang Sect, but they all end up being struck by lightning.
Although some people managed to survive, their strength was greatly reduced and they also started to become a little crazy.
From then on, no one dared to provoke Xuan Fang Sect, and Xuan Fang Sect was gradually buried in the river of time.
It was not until about twenty years ago that the Xuan Fang Sect suddenly publicly announced that it would hold a metaphysics exchange conference. At that time, the Xuan Fang Sect's reputation had been almost completely destroyed, so no one responded. It was not until the Xuan Fang Sect took out the legendary top-level elixir that could revive the dead that everyone flocked to it.
Before the first Metaphysics Exchange Conference was held, some people had tried to obtain the elixir through unconventional means, but they ended up getting electrotherapy. It was also at this time that some people remembered what kind of sect Xuanfang Sect was, and that someone had tried to take advantage of the situation and seize the treasures in Xuanfang Sect, but was also struck by lightning...
Knowing that elixirs cannot be obtained through abnormal means, everyone can only participate in the metaphysics exchange conference. Originally, they just went there for the fun, until they found that this metaphysics exchange conference seemed to be really something. Anyone who participated in the metaphysics exchange conference and did not cause any trouble, even if they did not win the elixirs, still gained a lot.
What you gain specifically depends on the individual.
After all, the first Metaphysics Exchange Conference was held very smoothly, so much so that when the Xuan Fang Sect said it would hold a Metaphysics Exchange Conference for the second time, even though it did not directly say that it would give out any treasures as rewards, many people still went.
The Metaphysics Exchange Conference is held every three years. This year marks the 21st year since the first Metaphysics Exchange Conference, so this year's Metaphysics Exchange Conference is exactly the seventh.
Seeing this, Jinjiu did not have any interest in the Metaphysics Exchange Conference, but instead became interested in the Xuanfang Sect.
Putting aside the only ancestor who ascended to heaven, Jinjiu found it very interesting that Xuanfang Sect would summon heavenly thunder to strike anyone who invaded Xuanfang Sect.
Because if we ask who in this world has the most dealings with Tianlei, if she says she is second, no one would dare to say they are first.
After all, she used to be a frequent victim of lightning strikes.
It's just that the lightning that struck her was real heavenly thunder, which was due to her special physique. Plus, she came from another world full of energy. Otherwise, with the number of times she was struck by lightning, she would have been cleansed and reborn long ago.
After carefully learning about the Metaphysics Exchange Conference and the Xuanfang Sect, Jinjiu began to prepare to attend the Metaphysics Exchange Conference.
The Xuanfang Sect does not have many restrictions on who can participate in the Metaphysics Exchange Conference. As long as one understands metaphysics, one can participate. As for the venue, it will not be announced until one week before the Metaphysics Exchange Conference.
By then someone will definitely post the address on the forum, so Jinjiu is not worried that he won’t be able to find the location by then.
When it came to a week before the Metaphysics Exchange Conference, Jinjiu did see the venue on the forum. What was somewhat surprising was that the venue this time was in City A, but it was far away from the center of City A, in a place very close to City C.
Jinjiu looked at the address and calculated the distance. It would only take five or six hours to drive there, so she was not in a hurry.
But just because she is not in a hurry doesn't mean others are not in a hurry either.
Perhaps because of the metaphysics exchange conference, there are fewer bounty missions during this period, so Jinjiu simply stopped accepting the missions and chose to continue setting up stalls outside.
When setting up the stall these days, Jinjiu could clearly feel that the atmosphere on the street was a little different.
It’s not that something big happened, but because there are too many metaphysical people coming from all over the world, which has driven the flow of fortune in City A, so Jinjiu can clearly feel that something is different from the past.
And Jinjiu also found that there are more and more peers around.
In the past, you might not be able to meet a truly capable colleague even if you walked around the street every day, but in the past two days, no matter where I go, I can always meet one or two.
No matter how strong or weak he is, he really knows something and is not just a charlatan.
