For him, the fact that Xiangliu's precious bone could be exchanged for so many things was the last remaining value of Chixieluo.
After leaving the Linglang Pavilion, Qi Shi'an changed his appearance again and blended into the crowd.
Although no one dares to cause trouble here, it's better to avoid trouble.
Before he knew it, he arrived at the magnificent gate of Tianyun Academy. This gate had stood there since ancient times, and it was carved with various auspicious beasts and divine birds.
Standing before the gate, a sense of ancient vicissitude washes over you, a testament to the passage of time and the profound heritage of the academy.
Without a doubt, Tianyun Academy is sacred and a holy place for cultivation that many people yearn for. Even elite disciples from some great families are willing to cross states to come here just to seek the Dao.
Within the academy are the Heavenly God's Dharma Hall, ancient sacred sites, and the sect leader's secret chamber; whoever gets the chance to enter will reap enormous rewards.
Because it contains the insights of ancient sages and records their cultivation experiences!
"boom!"
A vast expanse of smoke and mist rose from the depths of Tianyun Academy, accompanied by a colossal figure that seemed to fill the sky and soar into the clouds.
He made the heavens tremble, as if a supreme immortal had appeared, manifesting his true form in the world, preaching and chanting scriptures in the academy, shaking the entire ancient land.
The aura was so vast and awe-inspiring that many people couldn't help but kneel down in worship, their devotion unwavering, as if they wanted to become his followers and pay homage to him.
The shower of light brought almost a moment of enlightenment to everyone, and they all gained something, as if their bodies and souls had been purified.
It took a long time for people to come to their senses.
"Those are the relics of ancient sages. Inside are inscriptions left by true immortals, insights of sect leaders, and inscriptions of imperial clans. Even the leaders of other major sects are eager for a chance to visit them!"
"Who is this? To have such a great opportunity!"
"It must be the legendary person with double pupils, a talent fit for a saint. He has entered several times in a row, preparing for the grand battle of geniuses across the three thousand states!"
The crowd discussed among themselves, their faces showing envy. They could see the strange phenomena from outside the academy, and if they were closer, they might even gain some supernatural powers on the spot.
"Wow, a true immortal's inscription! I also want to go in and study it." Qi Shi'an's heart was filled with shock.
There, amidst the swirling mists, a colossal figure emanated an aura that soared into the heavens, lingering for a long time, rivaling even the might of the Yuan Emperor and the Eastern Heavenly Venerable.
"Ugh, it's him again. The gap between us is getting bigger and bigger."
At the entrance of the academy, a young man chuckled to himself, his attire clearly indicating he was a student of the academy.
Qi Shi'an looked at him and found that the man was tall and straight, but he looked very depressed, with dull eyes and lacking a spirited feeling.
He stepped forward to strike up a conversation, asking curiously, "Brother Dao seems to know someone with double pupils?"
The young man sighed, "Alas, I was defeated by him before, so I guess I'm considered one of his defeated opponents."
Qi Shi'an suddenly realized what was going on, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him, "It's alright, victory and defeat are common occurrences in war."
He started talking non-stop, exchanging a few words with the other person and learning that the person's name was Li Yuncong, a core disciple of Tianyun Academy.
At this moment, Qi Shi'an's heart stirred, and his eyes darted around, as if he had thought of a good way to infiltrate Tianyun Academy.
Chapter 145 Mysterious Boy
"Brother Dao, I've heard there's a sacred pool inside the academy. Why don't you take me in to have a look?" Qi Shi'an asked with a smile, his face extremely sincere.
He had already prepared a plan. It was rumored that there was a divine pool in Tianyun Academy, in which a sacred tree was planted, which could help people temper their primordial spirit.
The fruit of the Sacred Origin Tree can help cultivators comprehend the Great Dao, making it a priceless treasure.
His Myriad Dao Tree has already yielded several Origin Fruits. If he were to obtain another Saint Origin Fruit, the speed at which his Divine Soul transforms into a Spirit Embryo would be further enhanced.
Li Yuncong looked slightly puzzled. Was this person really that outgoing?
However, he still replied, "That is true, but only core disciples can enter that place. You... you shouldn't be a disciple of the academy, right?"
"Oh, isn't the academy a place for teaching students? Its doors are always open to me." Qi Shi'an patted his chest, his expression somewhat comical.
"Brother, take me inside for a bit, I want to check out the place first."
"what?"
Li Yuncong's mind suddenly went blank for a moment, and he didn't know whether there was something wrong with his ears or his brain.
Take me for a stroll around the academy? Tianyun Academy is a sacred place for cultivation; is it some kind of brothel where you can just walk in and wander around?
"Hey, isn't that Li Yuncong, one of the top five experts in the academy?"
"It really is true!"
At the same time, other people gathered around. Core disciples are not people you can see whenever you want; they are usually cultivating and rarely show their faces.
“Young man, if you want to enter the academy, you can climb the Heavenly Ladder.”
At this moment, a disciple dressed in the robes of Tianyun Academy stepped out from the crowd with a playful smile on his face.
Qi Shi'an glanced sideways at the young man who came out. He wanted him to walk the Heavenly Ladder? Wasn't that the same as joining the Heavenly Meteor Academy and putting a shackle on himself?
I'm just passing through, and I might as well find an opportunity to enter the Holy Yuan Divine Pool, not to join the academy.
"What are you doing here?!"
Li Yuncong's eyes flashed with a fierce light, his pale face changed color instantly, and his whole body was filled with murderous aura.
The young man sneered, "What? I am also a disciple of Tianyun Academy. Is there some evil spirit or curse here that prevents me from coming?"
“You…” Li Yuncong gritted his teeth, his blood surging like a primordial beast awakening, terrifying beyond measure.
But the next moment, he suppressed his aura, snorted coldly, and ignored him.
Qi Shi'an, standing to the side, had a strange expression. He could clearly sense that as soon as this young man appeared, Li Yuncong lost control of his emotions, and the killing intent in his heart was released involuntarily.
Qi Shi'an was perfectly aware of the murderous intent.
"Junior Brother Li, is this the helper you found?" The young man cast a disdainful glance at Qi Shi'an and said indifferently, "I advise you to give up. The last spot will only be mine."
"Why would I need help to kill you?" Li Yuncong said angrily, "Chu Qianxie, don't be so smug. You will surely be defeated in the competition in three days!"
Chu Qianxie gave a cold laugh and then fell silent.
Qi Shi'an was a little confused. He had only just met Li Yuncong, so how did he become an assistant?
At this moment, he was just like Louis XVI, completely bewildered.
He turned to look at Li Yuncong beside him and asked curiously, "Where did this idiot come from? Why did he treat me as your helper without any explanation?"
Li Yuncong chuckled and then explained the reason to Qi Shi'an.
It turns out that in order to improve the strength of its disciples and prepare for the Immortal Ancient Battle, Tianyun Academy will hold a grand competition in three days, and all participants will be core disciples.
To make the competition more exciting, the academy's higher-ups allowed each disciple to find a helper and have these people engage in a free-for-all before the main competition to warm up the atmosphere.
The final winner will grant the disciple who cooperated with them a bye.
A bye is a huge advantage for the first generation, as it allows them to observe their opponents from the sidelines and avoid wasting their energy.
Of course, if a disciple is confident in their own strength, they may also join the melee on their own.
The top five in the competition will receive a bone talisman that grants direct entry into the Immortal Ancient Realm, a Saint Essence Fruit, and the opportunity to comprehend the True Immortal's Legacy.
This is a chance for enlightenment that even the cult leader craves. Now, as long as they make it into the top five, they can obtain this precious opportunity.
Qi Shi'an suddenly realized and asked, "What benefits do those helpers get?"
As for the grudges and affections between Li Yuncong and Chu Qianxie, he didn't say anything, and Qi Shi'an didn't ask any further.
"You can visit the academy's scripture library, but you can only go to the first and second floors," Li Yuncong explained patiently.
"Can we go to the Divine Pool? I've heard that the Seven Immortals of Heavenly Demise often have the opportunity to bathe and cultivate there." Qi Shi'an blinked and said jokingly, "I want to go in and paint a picture of the Seven Immortals emerging from their bath; I should be able to make a fortune."
Laughter erupted from all around, clearly amused by the man's words, and everyone turned to look at Qi Shi'an.
"Young man, if you really manage to draw the Seven Fairies Bathing, remember to contact me. I'll pay a hefty price for it."
Everyone looked at him, especially some of the young men who were grinning and looking amused.
Some of the younger disciples in the academy also laughed, their expressions quite strange and varied, and some even gave him a thumbs up.
Some of the girls blushed, spat inwardly, and cursed in their hearts.
Clearly, no one believed that Qi Shi'an was after the divine pool; they all thought that this guy was after the Seven Immortals of Heavenly Fall.
Li Yuncong was speechless and replied, "No! Do you really want to get into the academy, or are you after her beauty?"
"To be baptized at the Divine Pool!" Qi Shi'an said without any hesitation, his words righteous and righteous.
Of course, these people clearly didn't believe it; most still thought he was doing it for the sake of the Seven Immortals who had fallen from the sky.
"boom!"
Suddenly, a loud bang came from the Heavenly Ladder. Someone was trying to break through!
"Who's trying to break through the barrier?!"
Everyone was shocked and found it unbelievable.
The so-called Heavenly Ladder is located inside the magnificent gate. Directly opposite the gate is a huge, imposing platform that is usually ignored and no one goes up to it.
It's been years since anyone has suddenly attempted to pass the test, because it's so difficult that it's almost impossible to succeed.
Soon, the dense crowd all looked toward the Heavenly Ladder, including cultivators from the market and students from the academy.
Qi Shi'an was quite surprised that someone was actually trying to pass the test, so he had to go and see what was going on.
hum!
At the foot of the Heavenly Ladder, a ragged boy who looked no more than ten years old was glowing all over, his hair fluttering in the wind. Although his face was covered in black soot, one could still see his delicate features, and his eyes were extremely resolute.
At that moment, the scene fell silent, completely still.
Qi Shi'an stood at a distance, watching the boy, who was like a god, with blazing flames all over his body, leaping and dancing around him.
He thought to himself, "Why does this person's demeanor feel so familiar? Have I seen him somewhere before?"
The boy's demeanor had a vaguely familiar quality that puzzled Qi Shi'an, but he couldn't quite place it.
"This guy is incredibly powerful, he feels like a young god on his journey!"
"Who is this person? Does anyone recognize him?"
This person appeared so suddenly that no one knew his true identity.
The young man moved with incredible speed, soaring like a roc across the sky, leaping onto the high platform and clearing seven challenges in a row.
"Clang! Clang! Clang..."
Seven consecutive bell tolls resounded, their thunderous sound echoing throughout the entire Tianyun Academy.
"So fast, passing seven levels in a row?!"
"Is this a monster?"
At the entrance of the academy, a group of people were already stunned, followed by a commotion and heated discussion.
Within the Heavenly Meteor Academy, many young supreme beings emerged from their secluded cultivation grounds to come and see who this future junior brother would be.
"jingle……"
A clear bell rang out, and a girl in white walked gracefully with a touch of coldness. Her pupils were as clear and cold as the silver moon, and her spirituality was imbued with a sense of holiness, drawing everyone's attention.
"It's Fairy Wanyue, one of the Seven Fallen Immortals. I never expected the bell to have alerted her!"
In an instant, the place became bustling with noise, and many men turned their eager eyes toward the beautiful yet cold figure.
Not only the men exclaimed in surprise, but some women were also moved and paid great attention to this woman who was as cold and aloof as ice.
"Was he the one climbing the Heavenly Ladder?"
The Moon Fairy spoke in an icy tone, her fair face radiating coldness as she stared intently at the spot.
“Junior Sister Wanyue, you’ve come at just the right time. There was another person who was planning to climb the Heavenly Ladder and bathe with you all just now,” Chu Qianxie suddenly said.
Upon hearing this, a group of people turned their gazes to the black-clad youth beside Li Yuncong, some with malicious intent, as they were all protectors of the Seven Immortals of Heavenly Fall.
Qi Shi'an sighed helplessly at the sudden stare. What had he done to deserve this? So what if Chu Qianxie didn't like Li Yuncong? It was none of his business.
He clearly didn't do anything; he was just talking big.
However, Qi Shi'an's expression remained calm and composed as he smiled faintly and said, "If you want to die, I don't mind building a grave for you."
He doesn't want to cause trouble, but he's not afraid of trouble either!
Chu Qianxie's gaze immediately turned cold, and he glared at her, saying angrily, "What were you just saying?"
"What, you're so young and your hearing is already failing you? Do I have to repeat myself?"
