The Mysterious Immortal, the Everlasting Lamp

"Waaaaah~~"

The bugle sounded.

Lu Wenze suddenly looked up and gazed at the door.

"The horn of the Taoist temple has sounded."

Unless something major happens, the Taoist temple will never sound this horn.

What constitutes a major event?

For example, an attack on the Fire Dragon Academy from another region!

For example, the change of Taoist priests in Taoist temples.

Generally speaking, Taoist priests are selected from within the Taoist academy.

However, as a direct disciple, Lu Wenze knew that there was a celestial sect above the Fire Dragon Academy.

The Fire Dragon Academy was founded by the patriarch of the Qin State Immortal Sect.

Lu Wenze stood up and walked towards the door.

The sect's horn sounded, and everyone was to assemble at No. 1 Courtyard Square without delay.

These are the rules; violating them will result in expulsion from the sect.

During normal times, no one except the true disciples of the Chi generation is allowed to set foot in Courtyard No. 1.

There are two areas within the entire Fire Dragon Academy that are absolutely off-limits to visitors.

One of them is Courtyard No. 1, and the other is the forbidden area of ​​Courtyard No. 7. Entry is not allowed without the Taoist priest's permission.

Passing through the courtyard and front yard of Courtyard No. 2, it was eerily quiet.

"Our eldest brother, Wen Yuliang, has left."

He left so quickly.

It is estimated that he is the only one in the entire Taoist academy who knows the specific details of his senior brother Wen Yuliang.

Without the slightest hesitation, he quickened his pace and hurried toward Courtyard No. 1.

Lu Wenze actually disliked these kinds of gatherings. He hadn't had time to look at the legacy his master left him before his ascension, nor had he had time to check what was inside the storage ring left to him.

Lu Wenze wanted to return to his room, close the door, and contemplate the legacy left by his master and carefully admire the items his master had left in his storage ring.

Courtyard No. 1.

In the spacious square, all the disciples of the Fire Dragon Academy gathered from all directions.

Lu Wenze walked to the front of the line and stood in the first position in the first row.

This is a private location within Courtyard No. 2.

The Master has passed away.

The eldest disciple left the Taoist temple.

The other senior brothers all died during the tribulation of the eldest brother's advancement to the Dao Dan realm.

The once glorious No. 2 Academy is now reduced to a lonely cultivator at the first level of the Dao Embryo Realm.

Moreover, just a few days ago, he hadn't even entered the Dao Embryo stage.

Their presence at the Fire Dragon Academy is extremely low.

Lu Wenze took his position.

Yang Conglin from the Third Academy walked over with twelve of his fellow disciples.

Seeing his junior brother Lu Wenze standing alone, he looked surprised, but quickly understood.

Could it be that Senior Brother Wen Yuliang has also run into trouble?

As the eldest disciple of True Man Chi Huo, Wen Yuliang ranked among the top five in the Fire Dragon Academy.

Wen Yuliang was even predicted by other outer disciples that he would most likely be the next Daoist Master of the Fire Dragon Academy.

The Second Courtyard produces extraordinary individuals, but its cruelty and bloodshed are unmatched by any other part of the Fire Dragon Academy.

When it was Wen Yuliang's turn, he had advanced to the peak of the ninth level of the Dao Embryo Realm, standing on the same starting line as the Innocent Ones. Coupled with his gentle and refined personality, he became the person in the eyes of many disciples of the Fire Dragon Academy who could shoulder this important task.

Yang Conglin never considered competing with Wen Yuliang.

Within the Fire Dragon Academy, the more dazzling a genius is, the faster they tend to die.

In particular, Wen Yuliang was the senior disciple of Courtyard No. 2.

On the contrary, Yang Conglin hoped that Wen Yuliang could take over this important task.

Could it be that Master Huolong is going to pass on his position to Wen Yuliang?

Otherwise, even if all the other disciples of the Second Academy were to die, Lu Wenze would not be able to stand in the position representing the Second Academy.

Yang Conglin also understood that although Lu Wenze had only been a student for a short time, he was honest, hardworking and low-key. He would never take the limelight on such an important occasion unless there were special circumstances.

After Yang Conglin joined the ranks, he simply nodded to Lu Wenze.

Lu Wenze quickly returned the greeting with a cupped-hand salute.

However, there was no verbal communication between them.

A faint fragrance wafted over.

Bai Yulan, the senior disciple of the Fourth Courtyard, led a group of junior sisters into the queue.

Her charming and alluring figure immediately drew everyone's attention away from Lu Wenze and towards this group of the most special disciples of the Fire Dragon Academy.

Master Chiyu only accepts female disciples.

Bai Yulan's cultivation has reached the ninth level of the Dao Embryo Realm.

She was also a veteran female cultivator in the Dao Embryo stage.

However, there has been no word of her preparing to break through to the next level.

Moreover, the Fourth Academy rarely interacts with other disciples of the Fire Dragon Academy, so much so that other members of the Fire Dragon Academy are unfamiliar with the people from the Fourth Academy.

Nine female cultivators!

Lu Wenze counted the number of people.

He only just realized that there were nine disciples in the Fourth Academy.

These nine female disciples all entered the sect earlier than him, so they were all his senior sisters.

Yang Conglin lowered his head slightly; he could feel the pressure emanating from Bai Yulan.

It wasn't just that the other party's cultivation level was higher than his.

More importantly, among the top disciples of the three academies, he was the only one whose cultivation had not reached the ninth level of the Dao Embryo Realm.

"I'm doing this just to be on the safe side," Yang Conglin thought to himself.

His informants were all over the Fire Dragon Academy, and he knew everything that had happened there over the years.

Summarize experiences and find patterns.

Entering the ninth level of the Dao Embryo realm is very dangerous.

Unless you are truly confident in advancing to the Dao Dan realm, you can leave the Fire Dragon Academy and head to the Qin State Immortal Sect.

Lu Wenze felt like he had thorns in his back, but the arrival of Senior Sister Bai Yulan and the others drew most of the attention, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

"Huh? Where's Senior Brother Wen?"

Bai Yulan looked at the lone figure standing in Courtyard No. 2. This excessively young boy must be the cowherd that Uncle Chi Huo of Courtyard No. 2 took in half a year ago.

"Your name is Lu Wenze? Junior brother, could you clear up my doubts?"

Bai Yulan's voice was cold and dignified, easily reaching Lu Wenze's ears.

Lu Wenze sensed that everyone in the dojo had turned their attention to him.

Lu Wenze's mind raced.

He knew best about the current situation of Courtyard No. 2.

In the past, when the second and fourth brothers were still around, even though there were fewer people, everyone else in the Fire Dragon Academy would respectfully call him Junior Brother Lu when they saw that he was from the Second Academy.

Now the second brother and the others are all dead.

The news spread.

After their master passed away, the eldest disciple used the Forgetfulness Immortal Technique to sever the root of his Daoist desires and left the Daoist academy.

With all this information combined, it's clear someone had ulterior motives. Lu Wenze didn't even know how he died.

In a fleeting moment.

Countless thoughts swirled in Lu Wenze's mind.

Soon, an idea popped into his mind.

No one knew anything about Wen Yuliang's situation.

As for the matter of Master's ascension to immortality, no one dared to ask or investigate further.

"The eldest brother overcame the demonic obstacle last night, his Dao heart reached perfection, and he advanced to the Dao Dan realm."

Lu Wenze said loudly.

"What?"

Yang Conglin suddenly looked up, staring at Lu Wenze in shock.

He knew something about the Dao Demon Shadow.

Although my understanding is not deep,

However, so many fellow disciples died in the Second Courtyard, and it was he who, along with his master and others, carried their bodies away and disposed of them.

The master discussed with Wen Yuliang several times how to join forces to fight against the unknown and strange events.

And now you're telling me that Wen Yuliang has already advanced to the Dao Dan realm?

There is only one person in the entire Fire Dragon Academy who has surpassed the Dao Embryo Realm.

That's Master Huolong.
