Chapter 2926: Towards the Great Wilderness
UƤdɑted by BʘXNʘVEL.CƟM
Although Yang Ruoxu did not join the Sword World, the Iron Crown Old Man still chose to impart two important Dharmic Daos to him.
“Senior…”
Yang Ruoxu did not know what to say for a moment.
At that moment, it seemed like no words of grat.i.tude could express his emotions.
The Iron Crown Old Man could tell Yang Ruoxu’s intentions and merely waved it off casually, saying in an extremely carefree manner, “After today’s matter, we’ll meet again if fate allows. If there’s a chance, come take a look at the Sword World.”
With that said, the Iron Crown Old Man turned to leave and vanished into the void.
After the Iron Crown Old Man left, some former disciples of the academy returned.
Everyone looked at the ruins before them with conflicted expressions and mixed emotions.
Heaven and Earth Academy, a heaven-grade faction and one of the four great immortal sects, was reduced to ruins in a single day.
This was the power of an Emperor expert!
It was as easy as flipping a palm to flatten a heaven-grade faction!
Although the Iron Crown Old Man did not start a ma.s.sacre and most of the academy disciples survived, there were only a few cultivators who were willing to return after all.
That was because all the disciples of the academy knew that without the Sect Master of the Academy and the elders being severely injured, Heaven and Earth Academy only existed in name.
In less than a day, this news would spread throughout the Divine Firmament Immortal Palace.
The three Immortal Kingdoms, the other three immortal sects and even Divine Firmament Palace might appear to split the territory of Heaven and Earth Academy.
Under such circ.u.mstances, who would be willing to return?
The three Immortal Kingdoms and three immortal sects were the best homes for many disciples of the academy.
“Senior Brother Yang, Senior Sister Mo Qing, what are your plans for the future?”
A disciple of the academy asked.
Yang Ruoxu shook his head gently.
Mo Qing was silent as well.
Neither of them had any plans or direction in their hearts.
Right then, a white-haired old man appeared out of nowhere.
Behind him was a pale and beardless gray-robed cultivator.
“Old Xuan?”
Many disciples of the academy quickly recognized the old man.
In Heaven and Earth Academy, Old Xuan was the gatekeeper of an Earth-grade Secret Pavilion on the surface and all the disciples of the academy knew him.
Of course, no one could read Old Xuan’s cultivation.
Furthermore, no one knew his ident.i.ty as Elder Ten.
However, Old Xuan was extremely experienced in Heaven and Earth Academy and all the disciples of the academy respected him.
“Yang Ruoxu.”
Old Xuan said, “If you guys have nowhere to go, why don’t you rebuild Heaven and Earth and reestablish the academy!”
“Rebuild Heaven and Earth and reestablish the academy…”
Yang Ruoxu murmured softly and asked instinctively, “But who will do this? The former elders of the academy have all escaped and the Immortal Kings have dispersed. I’m afraid they won’t return.”
“You.”
Old Xuan pointed at Yang Ruoxu. “You’re the only one qualified to rebuild Heaven and Earth Academy.”
“Senior Brother Yang, do it! I respect you!”
Xu Ye was the first to agree.
“That’s right, Senior Brother Yang. I admire you too.”
“Senior Brother Yang, I didn’t dare to say anything when they made things difficult for you earlier on. However, actually, I believe that you’re right.”
Many disciples of the academy spoke one after another.
“How can I do that?”
Yang Ruoxu shook his head gently. “My cultivation is crippled now. In terms of strength, I can’t compare to Senior Sister Mo Qing. In terms of experience and qualifications, I can’t compare to Old Xuan…”
Old Xuan waved it off and interrupted Yang Ruoxu. “You cultivate the Righteousness Sutra. You’re the hope of Heaven and Earth Academy.”
“You’re the only one who can shoulder the great aspiration of establis.h.i.+ng a heart for the world and a life for the people. A sanctuary for those who are keen on inheriting the ultimate techniques of the past and establis.h.i.+ng peace for all ages!”
“That was the original intention of the academy.”
Old Xuan knew that only a chivalrous person like Yang Ruoxu could set Heaven and Earth Academy on the right track as the Sect Master of the Academy.
Yang Ruoxu glanced at the surrounding ruins and smiled bitterly. “If we want to rebuild the academy, we’ll probably have to change locations. The Spirit Qi here has been severed by that senior and it’s difficult to cultivate.”
“It’s fine. As long as we cultivate together in the future, it’ll be the new academy!”
Everyone knew that it would definitely be difficult to rebuild the academy.
With no Immortal Kings presiding over the academy, they would only be the most ordinary earth-grade faction. They might even experience many hards.h.i.+ps.
However, at that moment, the disciples of the academy were filled with vigor and new hope!
“Old Man Xuan, what about me?”
Lin Xuanji sent a voice transmission with his spirit consciousness and asked expectantly, “My cultivation is not weak and I’m your personal disciple. Won’t I be an elder in the academy at least?”
“Elder your head!”
Old Xuan reprimanded mercilessly, “By inheriting my lineage, it’s your destiny to never see the light of day. You can only cultivate secretly. That’s the only way you can hide your ident.i.ty and protect the inheritance of the academy.”
“F*ck!”
Lin Xuanji clenched his fists and grit his teeth. “I fell for your trap, old man!”
Time flew.
More than 500 years had pa.s.sed since the earthshaking battle in the Evil Fiend Battlefield.
Up till now, the terrifying battle records of the Peak Master of the ninth Sword Peak of the Sword World killing more than 20 supreme Perfected Spirits alone were still circulating in the Perfected One realms of the various worlds.
Of course, the dozens of Kings who died in the starry skies attracted countless speculations as well.
After more than 500 years, no one knew who killed King Cold Eye and the others.
All these years, the medium chiliocosm had not been peaceful.
One of the ten Sin Grounds was shattered and countless Rakshasas fled. Their whereabouts were unknown and the Blessed Heaven World had already issued a bounty but they could not find any clues.
Conflicts between the major worlds happened frequently as well.
For example, the Dragon World, Parasol Tree World, Kun World and Peng World had already become like fire and water in recent years and wars between the worlds could break out at any moment!
Once a war between super large worlds broke out, it would definitely sweep through many greater worlds, middle worlds and even lesser worlds.
Fights and conflicts within some worlds were also happening intensely.
For example, in the Heavenly World and the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain, there were already three Immortal Domains that were under the lead of Immortal Emperor Dawn Twilight.
The Great Wilderness World was also filled with battles.
A mysterious faction called Blue fought everywhere and was unstoppable. It had already occupied more than half of the Great Wilderness World and there was little resistance left against it.
On this day, a purple-robed man with a silver mask came out of seclusion in a cave abode on an ancient star!
After more than 500 years of cultivation, the Martial Dao Prime Body fused the Dharmic Dao contained in the Three Pure Ones Jade Manual into the Martial Dao Purgatory and refined dozens of Grotto-heavens, fusing them into the Essence Martial Grotto-heaven.
The Martial Domain and Essence Martial Grotto-heaven finally broke through and were cultivated to the perfected realm at the same time!
At the major Martial Domain realm, he could already refine quasi-Emperor experts.
Right now, the Martial Domain was perfected. Burned and refined within it were too many cultivation techniques and secret skills from ancient times. In fact, there were several Taboo Mystic Cla.s.sics alone!
The Martial Dao Prime Body predicted that the perfected Martial Dao Purgatory might even refine Emperor experts who had just entered the Emperor realm!
Against the Sect Master of the Academy, even without the h.e.l.l Suppression Tripod, the Martial Dao Prime Body could fight him.
“It’s time.”
After the Martial Dao Prime Body came out of seclusion, he looked in the direction of the Great Wilderness World and took a deep breath before leaving..
