08104 - Appropriate distance may increase intimacy
Shi Bolin: "I feel that the Shi family's long-term requiem business has also profoundly affected the thinking of the Shi family, making the Shi family very peaceful, resigned, and not forceful. It seems that they have already possessed the temperament of a small sect in the cultivation world. No The temperament of the first-rate sects is more secular than that of the Shi family, and the Shi family seems to have a bit of a third-rate sect."
Me: "And you are the Jindan Patriarch of the Shi family. At least you are a guest."
Shi Bolin: "In the future, if the Shi family really becomes a sect, wouldn't it be a little strange for me to be the guest elder of the Shi family? If the Shi family is a family of cultivation, it seems more natural for me to be a member of the Shi family?"
Me: "No. The two identities of the top-level cultivation base of the cultivation family, the ancestor, and the disciple of the sect are more likely to be incompatible. Relatively speaking, the two identities of the guest elder of the sect and the disciple of another sect are placed in the same place. There is no conflict in the individual.”
Shi Bolin thought for a while, and said, "It seems that the latter case is indeed much more common. I have never heard of a single case of the former case."
Me: "In today's world of comprehension, there are many visits and exchanges of information between sects and sects. However, although sects and cultivation families have superficial contacts, most of the time they can't talk about going together. The two sects can come up with their own sects. Dao comes to inspire each other, but family Dao does not exist in aristocratic families of cultivation. Families spread Dao on the basis of the same blood relationship. Even though monks from the same family sometimes have some commonalities in behavior and thinking, their Dao It could be very far."
Me: "For example, the Ke family, Ke Shicuo and Ke Fanyi, now both of them have excessively restrained the behavior of juniors, but Ke Fanyi thinks this is good for the Ke family, and Ke Shicuo subconsciously copied it after being used to being controlled. He didn’t agree with the way the elders used to do, he just hasn’t found the way he agrees with.”
Shi Bolin: "Doesn't find it means that fellow Daoist Ke Shicuo's Tao has not yet formed?"
Me: "It's only the foundation building period."
Shi Bolin: "What if you can't ascend to the Golden Core?"
Me: "Then he won't have a formed way in this life. It's just that imitating the elders of the Ke family failed to help him form alchemy, which means that his way must be different from that of the elders of the Ke family."
Shi Bolin: "It's hard to understand the way of thinking of the aristocratic family."
Me: "So in order to prevent you from drifting away from the Shi family, as the person with the highest cultivation level in the Shi family's bloodline at this stage and in history, you should actively encourage the Shi family to move closer to the sect rather than the aristocratic family. You can Tell the Shi family that too much emphasis on blood relationship may make family affection a burden, and if you put career first, the trust between relatives will become more precious."
Me: "Gripping too tightly may cause injury, but loosening properly can fly farther."
Shi Bolin: "The Shi family likes a relaxed atmosphere."
08105 - No specification
Me: "You must have moonlight before you are willing to hold a requiem ceremony. Do you really value moonlight so much, or is this an excuse to guarantee your holiday?"
Shi Bolin: "I don't know. There are supporters for both theories in the Shi family. Maybe it's because of both reasons? I think moonlight and holidays are both important, and it just so happens that after insisting, it not only maintains the ceremonies. Moonlight, and guaranteed my vacation, win-win."
Shi Bolin: "Is it difficult to establish a sect? What procedures are required?"
Me: "It's not difficult. There is no organization in the cultivation world to handle this procedure. Generally, a group has at least a foundation building period, and a relatively fixed activity field, and then puts up a signboard to declare that it is not a popular sect. "
Me: "In the same way, a relatively fixed activity field plus a school name plus a Jindan period, some foundation building and Qi training periods, is a third-rate school."
Shi Bolin: "Is it possible to go through this process to build a top school?"
Me: "Theoretically yes, but if a group of monks who are not in the same line barely form a group, it will be difficult to be recognized by the public. That is to say, although they can build a top-level sect framework by themselves, their world influence is far less than Top-notch. Lesser and third-rate sects can build a small territory to enjoy themselves, while second-rate sects have to consider high-frequency interaction with the world."
Me: "So generally the sects established directly are either low-rate or third-rate. After the first catastrophe, it is rare to hear that it is a top-notch, first-rate sect. Before the first catastrophe, the situation was relatively Many, but at that time the classification of sect ranks was very confusing, and it was more about comparing each other than directly classifying."
Me: "For example, at that time, the Yunxia Sect had the Mahayana stage, and the Hehuan Sect was only at the Nascent Soul stage, so it is said that the Yunxia Sect is stronger than the Hehuan Sect, but it is hard to say how powerful it is. Because at that time, all schools were still in their infancy. Many things such as the exercises, teaching, and the standard for accepting disciples are not yet systematic, that is to say, the organizational structure is still very fragile and may collapse at any time."
Me: "Actually, at that time, many so-called great sects with great power collapsed."
08106 - long process
Me: "Sects with a relatively complete system, even if there is a problem, generally weaken gradually. For example, the Peeping Heaven Sect fell from the top to the first-rate, and the Qizong fell from the first-rate to the second-rate. And the sects with a poor system, once there is a problem, they will die. Directly torn apart, without a buffer, the sect that happened closest to this situation should be the wine cellar. The disbandment of the unrefined sects is not included in this category, because the unrefined sects are already at the bottom of the cultivation world, and they did not go any further There is no leeway, and going back is tantamount to disbanding."
Me: "Actually, it's very difficult to directly build a big sect, because the content of the big sect is too much, and direct human design is prone to omissions. The safer way is even if there is already a great power in the gang of yourself. Yes, let’s build a third-rate sect first, run it for a period of time to solve all the faults of the third-rate sect, then promote to the second-rate sect, then continue to solve a wave of faults, then enter the first-rate sect, and finally enter the top level.”
Me: "It is to cultivate the sect as a human child, instead of creating a puppet of the level of a god to raise him into a living thing. It's not that the latter cannot be achieved, but generally speaking, the former will develop more smoothly .”
Me: "Our Yunxia Sect's founding patriarch should be regarded as the idea of raising children for Yunxia Sect. However, the patriarch's school level was too chaotic in that era, and the top and first-class can barely pull out a list. The second-rate and third-rate are simply a pot of porridge, not popular. Even if there is basically no record, so the data did not clearly say that Yunxiazong was a third-rate sect at the beginning, but there are various signs that the original Yunxiazong started from perfecting the Jindan-level exercises that have universal significance within a certain range of."
Me: "After accepting the first batch of disciples and raising these disciples to the Golden Core Stage, the Patriarch led this group of Golden Core Stages to make a start in perfecting Yunxiazong's Nascent Soul Technique, so the first batch of disciples The birth rate of the second group of disciples was relatively low. However, the birth rate of the second batch of disciples, who were about 50 years later than the first batch of disciples, has increased significantly."
Me: "However, none of the first five batches of disciples have emerged as gods of transformation—these transformation gods who live in the Yunxia Sect after they have cultivated beyond the Jindan stage in other ways are not counted—the number one of the Yunxia Sect. The first self-cultivated stage of transforming gods came out of the sixth batch of disciples, and from the seventh batch of disciples, except for the period of catastrophe, the law of Yunxiazong recruiting a group of new disciples every ten years was basically stable. The period has not been broken."
Me: "The interval between the seventh batch of recruits and the first batch of recruits was 190 years, that is, it took nearly 200 years for Yunxiazong to establish a third-rate sect and become a first-rate sect. Of course, it can also be directly described as, aside from In terms of preparation time, Patriarch spent nearly 200 years building a stable first-class sect."
Me: "If Yunxiazong can become a stable top sect in the future, and this entry into the top school is also in the plan of the patriarch at the beginning, then it can be described as that the patriarch spent more than 3 years building a stable top sect." School. Upgrading the school in the process is only one of the steps in the establishment."
08107 - key inside
Shi Bolin: "Can the establishment of other sects be understood in this way?"
Me: "Almost. Including those sects whose ranks have dropped, as long as their ranks may rise in the future, their temporary decline can also be regarded as a trial-and-error detour in the process of building sects. It's one thing."
Me: "They are all in constant development. Just like individual monks, they can only be summed up at the moment of death. The current first-rate sect may only get a second-rate comprehensive evaluation at the time of summary. Now a certain The third-rate sect may be at the top level when the coffin is closed."
Me: "The world is changing and unpredictable, so just do what you want, try everything, and wait to see what scores the future will give us."
Shi Bolin: "Is building a sect really something that can be messed around and has no pressure?"
Me: "Have you seen any two sects that have the same rules? Do you know that there are many unpopular sects that can make a new version every week? At the beginning of the establishment of the sect, you directly used the family rules of your Shi family as the rules of the sect. That's more than enough. The biggest obstacle for your Shi family to become a cultivator is cultivation, at least you have to have a foundation period of your own property before you can be considered a low-level sect."
Me: "When counting heads, you can't count yourself into the Shi family, because your head is counted into the Yunxia sect. Even if you want to leave the Yunxia sect for the Shi family, your cultivation method can only continue the style of the Yunxia sect. , but Yunxiazong has neither spellcasters nor independent array cultivators, so the style of Yunxiazong cannot be applied to the new school of Shijia who wants to take the road of reassurance. .”
Shi Bolin: "Second son, don't worry, I am loyal to Yunxia Sect and will never betray Yunxia Sect. Even if the Shi family conflicts with Yunxia Sect... why can't the Shi family think about conflicting with Yunxia Sect? I will not let the conflict occurring."
Me: "Don't be nervous. A proper conflict is not a bad thing. Yunxia Sect and Medicine Sect often conflict, and Chiwu Sect has conflicts with almost all sects. As long as there is no irreversible damage, everything is easy to talk about. Obviously, at this stage The Shi family is not very capable of causing irreversible damage to the Yunxia Sect, so the initiative is on the Yunxia Sect's side, so I don't worry about those who are inclined to the Yunxia Sect."
Shi Bolin: "Shouldn't I be too involved when the Shi family established the sect? lest my Yunxia Sect ideas affect the Shi family?"
Me: "In moderation, too much avoidance may also have negative effects."
Shi Bolin: "The more I talk about it, the more I feel that the Shi Family sect has already been established. Can the sect be named Shi Family? Will this make outsiders think that the Shi Family is a family of cultivation and not a sect?"
Me: "It's easy to say what outsiders think, the key is the internal thinking of the Shi family. If this name makes you unconsciously think of blood relationship and favor Shi family blood when allocating resources, then it won't work; but if the Shi family can do it right. If the blood of the family and the blood of the foreign are equal, then the name seems to be just molesting the public."
