An ordinary spiritual cultivator's body that dared to withstand a Spirit Venerable's attack would probably be dead beyond any hope of survival, but Ji Jiuying withstood and absorbed it, which unconsciously increased everyone's admiration and respect.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth kept penetrating into her body. The endless spiritual energy swept in like a whirlwind, as if trying to absorb all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into her body. A huge storm was formed around her, catching everyone off guard.

The crowd looked at the girl in the storm, their bodies trembling slightly.

Rumble!

The sky darkened instantly, almost to the point where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and countless bolts of lightning wandered in the dark clouds.

This is!

The heavenly lightning that grants advancement to the Spirit Venerable realm.

I thought that a fourteen-year-old Spirit Saint was already defying the heavens, but who knew that on that day, in full view of everyone, she advanced from an unparalleled Spirit Saint to a Spirit Venerable!

This is simply a mythical existence, beyond description.

Not only Star Academy, but the entire Cangming Continent was shocked by this scene, and everyone was speculating which family's ancestor had advanced to the Spirit Venerable level.

This breathtaking spectacle attracted countless people...

Rumble.

A deafening clap of thunder shook the earth, as if the world was ending and everything was about to be destroyed. In an instant, panic gripped the hearts of the people.

Thick bolts of lightning raged wildly through the low-pressure clouds, seemingly poised to strike at any moment.

No one dared to get too close, for if they were hit by the lightning, they would likely be crippled even if they didn't die.

Within the storm of spiritual energy, the girl's eyes were tightly closed, her arms outstretched, as she frantically and recklessly devoured the spiritual energy. The energy continuously refined her meridians, forming essence that flowed into her dantian, causing it to expand continuously…

At this moment.

A bolt of lightning as thick as an arm streaked across the sky and struck the girl directly.

Click!

In an instant, countless electric currents surged around the girl in red. Ji Jiuying frowned deeply. Damn it, why does it hurt so much?

The laws of nature: I've already been very merciful to you~

Before she could react, another lightning bolt struck. Ji Jiuying gritted her teeth, cursing the laws of heaven countless times in her heart. She quickly activated the third level of the Divine Control Technique, Heavenly Thunder Fury, transforming all the lightning energy that struck down into Heavenly Thunder Fury for her use.

A pair of eyes flashed with surprise above the dark clouds, staring intently at Ji Jiuying. She actually dared to absorb his lightning!

Gong Mingyue sensed something, raised his deep, cold eyes to meet those eyes, and in an instant, lightning flashed across the sky, and the surrounding air dropped sharply.

The owner of the eyes above the dark clouds paused slightly. The man had noticed him; his icy pupils flashed. So that's how it is~

A figure appeared in the void and landed in Star Academy.

"The dean is back."

Upon hearing the sound, Shen Qingqiu hurriedly stepped forward, his brows furrowed. He could see the weariness in his eyes, and coupled with his travel-worn appearance, it was clear that he had returned in a hurry. What had stopped him in his tracks?

"Old Yu, you're finally back."

Shen Qingqiu didn't ask any more questions. Although he had known Yu Bugui for a long time, he found that sometimes he really didn't understand him at all. He never knew where Yu Bugui went or what he did, nor did he ask.

What he didn't know was that Yu Bugui valued this very trait in him: he knew how to behave appropriately and had a bottom line.

"If I hadn't come back, my academy would have been destroyed by these people."

Yu Bugui pouted, snorted coldly, but his gaze was fixed on the two people in the sky.

"After not seeing her for a while, this girl is truly surprising."

Yu Bugui narrowed his eyes. In all his years of life, he had never seen anyone with such extraordinary talent.

"Old Yu, what incredible luck you had to run into such a promising talent."

Shen Qingqiu sighed softly. If he had stayed in Cangyue Kingdom and waited for her, would she have become his disciple?

The answer is no. Old Man Yu took Ji Jiuying before him, so even if he waited for her, the result would be the same.

Old Man Yu's expression flickered slightly. Meeting her was not a preordained arrangement by heaven... but rather the result of karma that he had accumulated over hundreds of years.

Soon, the emotion in his eyes flashed by, and he returned to his original state.

"How could my judgment be bad?" Yu Bugui said proudly.

"But this girl has been keeping it pretty well hidden~"

Shen Qingqiu glared at him, but the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

At this moment.

Bang--

A crisp sound rang out amidst the storm and lightning, and Ji Jiuying was surrounded by dazzling light, instantly illuminating the sky that had been darkened by the clouds.

Spirit Lord, Star One.

Ji Jiuying smiled as she felt the spiritual energy and lightning cleansing her. The difference was that the lightning struck the aura around Ji Jiuying and was then slowly absorbed by her. Although this method was risky, the success rate of advancing was particularly high. She really had to thank that old man.

waste?

Having been labeled a good-for-nothing for ten years, he suddenly became able to cultivate, and in less than a year, he reached a level that many people could never reach in their entire lives. What kind of heaven-defying talent could achieve this? It is truly unbelievable.

Gradually, the lightning stopped, and the dark clouds dispersed, as if the scene just now was merely an illusion and had never occurred.

The Second Elder's admiration, which had just faded, rose again. If such a talented prodigy were nurtured on the Heavenly Domain Continent, their Feng family would definitely rise to an even higher level. It's just a pity...

He glanced at Ji Jiuying with pity. No matter he was Elder Feng, even if he were the head of the Feng family, he couldn't change the ancestral precepts passed down in the Feng family.

It's such a waste that such a talented person has to spend his whole life in the forbidden area of ​​the Feng family.

Everyone was astonished. This was a Spirit Venerable?

"Mommy is so great!"

Little Phoenix couldn't understand the emotions of the crowd, and assumed they were just shocked by their mother, so she danced around happily.

Feng Luo frowned slightly. What did that little girl call her? Mother?

"This girl is married?" Feng Yan stared wide-eyed in astonishment. Does that mean she can't... return to the forbidden area?

"That's impossible. She's only a few years old, while that little girl is seven or eight. How could she possibly be that girl's child?" Feng Luo denied without even thinking.

However, it wasn't just Feng Luo and his group who were surprised; everyone from Star Academy was also astonished.

Why did my senior sister go out and come back with a baby?

——

Star Academy, Guixu Palace.

"How did those people know that there was a divine artifact in the academy?" Shen Qingqiu asked in confusion.

Yu Bugui was also puzzled. Could it be that Tianmen Mountain had leaked the information, and that their massacre was related to the divine artifact?

"It was said by people from Tianmen Mountain."

Ji Jiuying picked up the spiritual tea on the table and savored it carefully.

"My dear disciple, how did you know?"

Yu Bugui narrowed his eyes. After hearing what she said, he roughly guessed that the Floating Life Mirror had not been born earlier or later, but it had destroyed Tianmen Mountain during the academy's holiday and thus became famous throughout the world.
