“It’s the swords instead of the people of the Heaven-Seeking Sword Palace that you must be wary of. The swords controlled by people are not horrifying. However, if you encounter the people controlled by swords, you must be very careful!” The young master said in rare seriousness after he understood the relationship between these two people and the Nangong Family.
With narrowed eyes, Fang Qi dug out a cigarette box from his pocket. Looking at the last cigarette, he suppressed his urge to light it and put the lighter back into his pocket.
He frowned at Tang Yu’s warning.
He savored the hidden meaning in Tang Yu’s words and began to understand the great depths and accumulation of the major forces in the Spirit State.
Then, he put away the cigarette and shrugged. “Why do people always like making trouble?”
...
( B oxnovel.c om ) – The Heavenly Academy –
In the rolling spiritual mountains, there seemed to be spiritual lights flashing and purple spiritual essence rising.
The Heavenly Academy was situated in the depths of the misty spiritual essence.
In fact, this year’s academy exam went beyond its original purpose. Due to its unusual importance, all the existing disciples of the Heavenly Academy would participate in the exam as well.
People still could enter the academy through this exam, but it would be extremely difficult to get the first place and become the Old Academy Master’s last disciple, thus learning the ultimate Heavenly Insight Scroll.
Of course, for some people, this wasn’t their concern since their goal was not the first place.
Nangong Zhuo’s eyes looked cold. “It’s said that that woman of the Li Family has obtained more cultivation strength with the assistance of Mystic Fate Jade?”
“Yes! Young Master!” the man wearing a black silk robe answered, “Besides, it’s said that she has learned a wondrous sword technique, and she can fly extremely fast while standing on a sword! The cultivators saw it on the Cloud Sea Square!”
“Fast?” Nangong Zhuo snickered. “How fast can she be? Can she fly faster than my sword?”
“What about that kid with her?” Nangong Zhuo asked, “Have you found out about his relationship with the Jiang Family and his background?”
“His background is not clear,” the man said, “I only know that he is close to the little princess of the Jiang Family. He has a shop in the city, but we can’t find out about his background.”
“He’s being secretive and trying to act?” Nangong Zhuo said, “You can go now.”
“Yes.”
After that man left, two ghost-like figures appeared from thin air behind Nangong Zhuo.
The two black-cloaked figures kneeled on the ground.
“Act after he leaves the city.”
The two figures shot out like two pitch-black sword beams.
Nangong Zhuo had cold glints in his eyes. “We’ll soon find out who you are.”
Meanwhile, Xun Yuan, who had been cultivating in his room, suddenly opened his eyes and saw that the sky outside the window had turned extremely gloomy.
Crack! A bolt of lightning shot down from the sky with blinding light in the dim sky, and the thunder rumbled.
“Who has forced the Nangong Family to use sword slaves?”
Fragrant flowers in front of the window bloomed, and several yellow birds frolicked around the eaves. A white-robed young master stood in the corridor in the courtyard and looked at the gloomy sky with an ancient scroll in his hand; the characters on the scroll looked ancient and complicated as if they were written in a language from a distant past. “A tiny petal of a flower or a leaf can change one’s whole life, or it would be meaningless.”
In the sky, with many engravings of strange array patterns, a pair of huge wings made with gold and jade spread out, and a black-robed young master faintly smiled. “I’ll set off before you guys!”
A flash of light shot across the sky!
Then, many spiritual lights shot up from Yuanyang City like fireflies in the gloomy sky; they used their respective powerful techniques and shot toward the northeast direction in the form of light beams!
( B oxnovel.c om ) “Boss! We’re setting off now!” On Cloud Sea Square, Jiang Xiaoyue waved her little hand.
“Let’s go to the school, Sister Lanruo!”
Then, they drew a long trail of sword beam and joined the magnificent river of spiritual lights.
“Don’t be smug. Our senior sister will be the champion of this year’s academy exam!” A voice mumbled in the crowd.
“Stop your nonsense.” In the crowd, a woman wearing a pure-white Daoist robe with a pair of cranes embroidered on the hem lightly pushed back her bamboo hat and glanced over. Then, she flew up elegantly riding on the wind. While looking unworldly and ethereal, she followed the crowd in a distance.
It was the first time that all the masters of the younger generation gathered so close together.
...
Stepping on her flying sword, Jiang Xiaoyue flew to the foremost of the group smugly. “Sister Lanruo, don’t worry. The items in the Boss’s shop are extremely awesome.”
“How many scrolls of the Heavenly Book have you read?”
“Ugh... Only three scrolls, and I haven’t fully understood them yet.”
“Don’t worry!” Jiang Xiaoyue patted her small chest and promised, “Just watch me!”
When she stayed in the shop, she was only an employee with a super powerful senior and a mighty boss above her, and she had never had an opportunity to show her abilities, Now, she couldn’t suppress the strong urge to show her hand.
She was extremely pleased. After all, her boss couldn’t come to the exam. The most he could do was watch from outside. It was her opportunity to show her abilities!
She almost jumped with excitement!
“Ay~ Hear me out. When we’re in the exam, just stay with me; I promise that I’ll bring us to victory! I’ve read all the scrolls of the Heavenly Book and mastered the sword control technique for many years. I can also use all the ultimate techniques including Magic Shield Spell and Ice Roar Spell...”
Li Lanruo’s eyes widened. “...”
Her brain went blank.
She had just encountered the super powerful Senior Fang and wanted to show her hand. However, seeing the super powerful princess who had just appeared, she knew that she had a long way before her.
The rolling mountains outside the Heavenly Academy were full of all kinds of demonic birds and beasts. In addition, the origins of these spiritual mountains could trace back to the distant ancient times. Although it wasn’t a forbidden zone where no one could pass, these mountains were a dangerous area for ordinary people to move through.
Meanwhile, these mountains were full of all kinds of spiritual flowers and herbs and even rare treasures.
( B oxnovel.c om ) At the same time, they were covered by all kinds of restriction arrays from ancient times. For this exam, the academy had put some other restriction arrays in the mountains.
The rule for this year’s academy exam was passing this huge area of spiritual mountains and reaching the mountain gate of the Heavenly Academy!
Of course, this was the basic requirement for passing the exam. The academy only had 81 spots, which meant that not all the cultivators reaching the gate would be accepted. They must find as many natural treasures in the mountains as possible, and the people who got the most treasures would rank higher on the list.
Treasure hunting had been a necessary experience and a common training method for all the cultivators and warriors. Whenever a mystical relic came out, it would draw large groups of cultivators to explore. This academy used this method to test the participants.
Of course, the dangers didn’t only come from the spiritual mountains; they may also come from the other participants in the exam.
