Chapter 594: Fellow Daoist Tang is Right
I am a security guard who protects the peace in the area. I love eating bear biscuits and I like the owner Xiao Dan.
Life as a security guard is comfortable.
Chu Ning sat in the pavilion and made himself a pot of fragrant tea.
This was his third year as a security guard at the Holy Temple. The entire bamboo forest was silent, and nothing happened either inside or outside.
Guarding the Holy Courtyard is a task that all disciples of the Holy Court are vying for, but Chu Ning still can't see what's good about this task.
It’s still early!
Chu Ning could only comfort himself in this way. After all, only a hundred years had passed. He should not be so unlucky to become one of the few disciples in his master's words who guarded the Holy Academy without any gain.
During these three years, he not only sat in this pavilion, but also inspected all the areas outside the pavilion. The area outside the bamboo forest was no different from an ordinary village.
There are creeks, ancient bridges, fields and forests. It looks like an ancient village, and there are even people living in the village.
After three years of observation, Chu Ning confirmed one thing: these people were not real living people, but traces left by people who once lived here.
Countless years ago, when the saint was in seclusion here, ordinary people lived around here.
These people built houses at the foot of the mountain, lived by the river, farmed and fished. Although their lives were hard, at least they had enough food and clothing.
The reason why these people can still appear here and this village can still be preserved after so many years is because of the saint.
The saint used his great supernatural powers to preserve all traces of the villagers' past lives. Chu Ning believed that when the next disciple of the Saint's Palace came in the next hundred years, he would see the same scene.
After a while, a woodcutter carrying a bundle of dry firewood passed by the pavilion. Seeing Chu Ning, a smile appeared on his face. "Mr. Ji, I heard that the baby of the old Li family was named by you. Mr. Ji, you are very knowledgeable. My grandson will be born next month. Please give my grandson a name as well."
"No problem, just prepare three glasses of light wine for Ji."
Chu Ning nodded. He had not been sitting in this pavilion idly during these three years. He had also become familiar with the villagers. Ever since he saved several villagers who were sick last time, the villagers had respected him very much.
When several villagers had newborn babies, they asked him to name them. He never refused anyone as long as they prepared three cups of wine for him.
"I know Mr. Ji likes wine, so I will go to Wang's house tomorrow to get two jugs of wine and prepare them for Mr. Ji."
"good."
Chu Ning nodded calmly, and the next moment he suddenly looked up at the sky in the distance, and said to the woodcutter: "It looks like it's going to rain soon, let's get down the mountain early."
The bamboo forest is located halfway up the mountain.
"Why is it raining today, Mr. Ji...it's really going to rain."
The woodcutter didn't believe it. He stopped talking halfway when he looked up at the dark clouds in the sky. It was the slack season for farmers and many villagers put some grain on the quarry to dry in the sun. The woodcutter said goodbye and hurried down the mountain.
Watching the woodcutter's back as he went down the mountain, Chu Ning formed seals with his hands, and soon there were lightning and thunder in the dark clouds, with shocking sound of thunder.
The small village became busy in an instant. The villagers were busy collecting grain and clothes, and occasionally they called out to the children who were playing in the village to go back home through the adults.
A quarter of an hour later.
The heavy rain fell.
The rainstorm was very heavy and all the villagers stayed in their homes. Because of the strong wind, every household closed their doors.
Fortunately, although the rainstorm was heavy, it gave the villagers enough time and no food was damaged. The children who loved to play were also called back home by their parents.
What the villagers did not realize was that the range of the rainstorm was only their village. No rain fell in the area outside the village. The rainstorm isolated the entire village from the outside world.
…
…
The sky in the distance.
Eight figures appeared from the sky, all with tired looks on their faces.
"How are you, fellow Taoists?"
Wanyan Rui swept his eyes across the crowd, focusing on Tang Ruowei. When he saw the paleness of Tang Ruowei's pretty face, he was moved.
This was the first time he saw fatigue on Tang Ruowei's face, and saw the fragility that was unique to a woman. This alternative side of her made him even more moved.
As the sixth prince of Zhongzhou, he could find any kind of female cultivator he wanted. He liked Tang Sining not just because she was a disciple of Taiyi Academy.
Although Taiyi Academy has a high status, it is more because of the dean. He does not need to rely on Tang Sining's status as a Taiyi Academy disciple to increase his bargaining chips in the family.
On the contrary, because his pursuit of Tang Sining was fruitless, many people in the family gossiped about him, saying that he made the royal family a laughing stock in Zhongzhou.
Tang Sining rejected him, and he continued to pursue Tang Sining. When the news spread, other cultivators in Zhongzhou had an illusion that the status of Taiyi Academy was higher than that of the royal family.
But he didn't care. As long as Tang Sining didn't find a Taoist partner, he would never give up.
"The power of this space is indeed extraordinary. If it weren't for this formation that weakened it, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to get here."
Yan Heng smiled bitterly. His clothes had been torn several times along the way. This was the fifth set. He also lost a top-level virtual weapon-level defensive magic weapon.
The others were similar, with a look of palpitations on their faces. They were deceiving heaven this time, and were not truly approved by heaven to be sent here, so naturally they had to bear the price.
Fortunately, although they lost a lot of defensive magic weapons, it was worth it to be able to arrive here. As long as they can obtain the saint's cultivation method to break through to the God Transformation Realm, they will not feel sorry even if they have to destroy all the magic weapons.
"I will rest for a while and recover before heading to the Holy Temple."
"Fellow Daoist Xu is too cautious. This Holy Palace and Holy Courtyard has always had only one Divine Transformation disciple in charge of guarding it. Are the eight of us really afraid of a Divine Transformation cultivator?"
The man from Hunyuan Sect had an arrogant look on his face. With the strength of the eight of them, they would not be afraid even if the Holy Palace arranged for powerful people at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm to guard the Holy Academy.
Each of them has the strength to compete with the average peak-level gods, let alone the eight of them.
"The Holy Palace has been gradually declining over the years. Among the disciples, only Fu Cang is still worthy of attention. The other disciples are nothing."
"Fu Cang has already guarded the Holy Court many years ago. According to the rules of the Holy Court, it is impossible for Fu Cang to guard it again. We don't need to be afraid."
Since the target was the Holy Palace and Holy Academy, those present had all learned about the situation in the Holy Palace in advance. The current Holy Palace was no longer as good as it had been in the past and was gradually going downhill.
The so-called chief disciples of the Holy Palace were naturally geniuses in front of other cultivators, but they were nothing in their eyes.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Among all the disciples of the Holy Palace who had reached the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm, only Fu Cang was taken seriously by them. However, Fu Cang had already reached the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm many years ago and it was impossible for him to guard the Holy Academy anymore.
This is also why, after the eight of them entered this place, although they lost a lot of magic weapons, there was more interest in their eyes.
Coming here means there is a great possibility of obtaining the saint's cultivation method.
"Since all of you Taoists feel that there is no need to rest, then continue on."
Wanyan Rui smiled. In his heart, he did not take the disciples guarding the Holy Academy seriously. He asked this question only because he was worried about Tang Sining.
The eight people turned into eight rainbow lights and moved towards the mountain village, but they stopped at the border of the river in the mountain village.
In front of them, a curtain of rain formed by heavy rain blocked their way.
"This is the Holy Palace. Non-disciples of the Holy Palace are not allowed to approach. Please go back."
A voice was heard from the rain curtain.
Wanyan Rui and the others were not surprised at all when they heard the voice. They had not concealed their aura when they came here, so it was normal for the disciples of the Holy Palace to notice their arrival.
"The Holy Academy is recognized by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and the Great Dao has also bestowed a foundation on your Holy Palace, in exchange for the entry of the geniuses recognized by Heaven and Earth. Your Holy Palace is blocking it, which is against the Way of Heaven. Don't do anything that goes against Heaven."
Yan Heng spoke slowly through the rain curtain. Everyone was not afraid at all that their arrival would be known by the Saint Palace's Dongxu experts, because even if the Saint Palace knew, they would not dare to arrange Dongxu experts to stop them.
There has to be a limit to going against the will of heaven.
It was even impossible for the Holy Palace to send Fu Cang in again.
Knowing this, they were not anxious at all. They even hoped that the disciples of the Holy Palace would inform the powerful Dongxu masters of the Holy Palace so that they could obtain the saints' cultivation methods under the noses of these Dongxu masters. These Dongxu masters could do nothing to them, which made them even happier.
Wanyan Rui and the other seven did not notice that the moment the voice of the disciple from the Holy Palace was heard, Tang Ruowei's pretty face was slightly stunned, and there was a hint of joy but uncertainty in her beautiful eyes.
"If you are really allowed to come here by the approval of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, I will not stop you." Across the rain curtain, the voice of the Saint Palace disciple was heard again: "I am afraid you know how you got here, but I don't know if my sect master will stop you if he knows about this."
"There is no need to threaten us with these words. For your Saint Palace Master and many elders, they dare not take the risk to try it."
Wanyan Rui shouted loudly, they did come in through the formation, but even the Lord of the Holy Palace did not dare to confirm it, because they did not get the approval of Heaven by coming in like this.
The Holy Palace would never dare to take such a risk.
Not only the Holy Palace, but any major sect would not dare to take such a risk.
"If you think I am not qualified, you can fight me. If I lose, I will never enter the Holy Academy."
Tang Ruowei, who had spoken very little from beginning to end, suddenly spoke. When she said this, the first people to be surprised were Wanyan Rui and others.
“Tang…”
"If you can't even defeat a disciple guarding the Holy Court, you won't get a chance even if you enter the Holy Court."
Seeing Wanyan Rui and the other seven people looking at her with puzzled eyes, Tang Ruowei explained with a proud look on her face.
Wan Yan Rui was stunned for a moment, then he agreed, "Fellow Daoist Tang is right. If you can't even defeat a disciple guarding the Holy Palace, then you are not qualified to enter. This emperor agrees."
Yan Heng looked at Wan Yan Rui with a strange expression. This...
But after Wanyan Rui and Tang Sining expressed their opinions, how could they be willing to lag behind?
