Chapter 147 A Flower Inserted into Destiny [Four-in-one, 5,000 subscriptions plus ten more chapters! ]
More and more people gathered in the square.
The disciples in the front rows who were watching were still standing obediently, while the disciples at the back could only hover in the air with their swords and watch from afar, the further back they went the higher they flew.
The layers extend to the horizon, forming an inverted bell shape, surrounding the square like the Roman Colosseum.
Xiao Bai looked around. These people were wearing similar blue and white disciple uniforms. The men's and women's uniforms were only cut differently, but the colors were exactly the same. They were so densely packed that they looked like heavenly soldiers and generals, and were quite vast.
As expected of the students of the academy, although they were watching, almost no one made a noise. They just watched quietly. The order was well maintained and there was a great atmosphere.
From the looks of these disciples, it could be seen that some of the male disciples came to see Murong Yu, the legendary genius of Dahemen.
Most of the male disciples wanted to see the legendary Son of Destiny... who exactly was he, the one who could kill so many children from aristocratic families and even associate with Ling Zhouyue.
Some female disciples even came to see the legendary handsome man who was said to have married the female demon.
There are only a few disciples who want to see the local prodigy make a fool of himself...
From this we can see that the students in the academy are quite capable.
In the center of the crowd, a square platform a hundred feet wide was automatically cleared.
The place is not big, but it is enough for discussion.
Standing in the center of the arena were Xiao Bai and his four companions, Liu Changfeng and his three companions, and the Qi Shan brothers.
It was the first time for Mu Xiangzi to stand on such a stage that attracted so much attention. He wished that all these people could attack him together, so he shouted to the burly Qi Ming: "Human-shaped genius touchstone? Let me try!"
Seeing that a dispute was about to arise, Murong Yu shook his head and reminded Xiao Bai: "We are here to visit and learn, there is no need to pay attention to these people."
Liu Changfeng stroked his beard and smiled, "Miss Murong, you are wrong. This is part of learning. If you come to the academy and don't show off your skills, how can it be considered a visit?"
Yu Hu has never felt anything about this kind of thing. His eyes were as dull as still water, so he said to Xiao Bai:
"You play here for a while. I'm going to go to Teacher Gu Zhen's place for a cup of tea. Don't take too long."
Don't delay too long... that's what I said.
"good."
Xiao Bai nodded, pretending to be confident, and said to Liu Changfeng: "We can spar, but I'm not interested in being a teacher in the academy, and I'm too lazy to fight. Just be casual, but don't beat me up too badly."
"Xiao Tianming is too modest."
Liu Changfeng shook his head and smiled apologetically, but his face was not smiling. The reflection of the jade pot seemed to still linger in his eyes.
I thought to myself, this is really a flower hanging on the cross of fate!
You have to accept it even if you don't like it.
Murong Yu was not in the mood, so he stepped back, sat cross-legged on the roof of the Water Drop Palace, and watched the show from afar.
Xiao Bai turned her head and took a look, then she said, "I don't like fighting, I'll just watch."
Mu Xiangzi waved confidently towards Murong Yu.
"Don't worry, it's not your turn to play."
Immediately, he patted Xiao Bai on the shoulder.
"Brother Xiao, I will be the first to go into battle on your behalf. I promise to kill these arrogant academy disciples."
Xiao Bai spread his hands, not knowing what to say for a moment...
Liu Changfeng didn't say anything either.
So, Mu Xiangzi came to the center of the ring, looked around, pointed at the crowd and said: "Nanhai Mu Xiangzi is here, who dares to fight with this genius!"
The Qi Ming brothers were confused and didn't want to fight with Mu Xiangzi at all.
At this time!
One person stood up from the crowd.
He had a tall and strong figure, holding a long sword, with a student's bun on his head and wearing ill-fitting disciple clothes.
Suddenly he raised his hand and slapped the air——
Bang! A palm force of the void seal was slapped out, knocking Mu Xiangzi back ten feet away, and he fell to the ground spitting blood.
Mu Xiangzi turned over and stood up, holding his lower abdomen in pain, feeling that the wall of the Jiaodan was almost shattered.
"Who are you--"
The man just said:
"The Tianjiao Touchstone is written wrong. It should be the Destiny Touchstone. You are not qualified to play."
Xiao Bai took a look and saw that the blow was not light.
The wall of Mu Xiangzi's Mahayana Jiaodan was reconstructed after the infant was split open. In addition, the degree of fusion between him and the Jiaodan was not high, so its defense might not be stronger than his Fusion Realm Black Gold Jiaodan.
Even so, he wouldn't be beaten to the point of spitting blood and falling to the ground...
Xiao Bai looked carefully at the person who struck out with his palm.
It seems that he is at the initial stage of the Spirit Severing Realm, but in fact, he is at the initial stage of the Body Integration Realm! The seal that this person used to hide his cultivation was very high-level and very clever, but it could not escape Xiao Bai's eyes.
Especially the aura cannot be concealed.
He was tall, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. The disciple uniform he wore was obviously ill-fitting, and his bun was tied up with great difficulty. Rather than being a disciple of the academy, he looked more like a kendo teacher in the academy.
Even Liu Changfeng could hardly hide the respect in his eyes when he looked at this man.
The touchstone of destiny? Xiao Bai smiled and said:
"The Destiny Child is just a legend. Isn't it too expensive to try it?"
The man held the long sword and said coldly:
"Whether it's a legend or not, you won't know until you try it."
Xiao Bai had no intention of sparring with a kendo teacher who was at the fusion realm.
That would expose your own cards and make it easy for you to be targeted later.
But you can find some weaker opponents and try out Feiyue's soul-destroying firearms. It can also be considered an advertisement and a contribution to the revolution in the soulless world.
So, he changed the subject: "If it is true, it would be too cheap for me, the son of destiny, to compete with a bunch of you. At least we should let Sword Saint Li Xuanqing come."
In one sentence, the guest becomes the host.
The whole place was silent, and suppressed anger was evident in the crowd.
Xiao Bai thought, since we are going to compete, we have to do it quickly and decisively. How can we attract traffic and advertising if we don't make a big deal out of it?
He crossed his arms across his chest, very arrogantly, and simply said, "So, I will not accept a fight from an unknown person, especially a coward who hides his strength and identity."
The man frowned and further restrained his momentum.
"I am from the Pei family."
Soon, another young disciple with a long beard walked out from the crowd.
"I am from the Nanmen family."
Qi Ming also said:
"My last name is Qi."
The three of them then stood together.
The sword teacher in the middle who claimed to be a member of the Pei family stared at Xiao Bai and said, "Now, are you qualified?"
Pei family, Nanmen family, Qi family...
Xiao Bai understood.
“It turns out to be the Victims Alliance!”
"It seems that you are not only here to spar, but also to settle personal grudges?"
"Well, we, the Son of Destiny, are not demons. I understand the feelings of the victim's family. It's okay to spar with the academy's disciples, but don't be too ruthless."
Liu Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Just learn from each other, don't kill anyone, you can use any other tricks."
Xiao Bai didn't care. There was no one in the academy who could kill him for the time being.
The baby Qi Shan climbed on Qi Ming's shoulder, pointed at Xiao Baidao, and said in a milky voice: "Brother Ming, take his head off and let him experience the pain of having his head cut off!"
Xiao Bai shrugged and said, "I say, Qi Jianzong, how come your mind has become like that of a child? The one who chopped off your head was Ling Zhouyue, not me. If you have the guts, go find her!"
"——The wife's debt to the husband is tasted!"
Qi Shan's eyes were bloodshot and he screamed hysterically.
His brother Qi Ming suddenly started to swell up his muscles, and in the blink of an eye he turned into a ten-foot-tall giant.
Xiao Bai was a little surprised. This man's name was Qi Ming, but he was a strong martial artist, much stronger than Qi Shan.
Qi Ming's eyes were as bright as lightning as he stared at Xiao Bai, and suddenly he clasped his hands together.
Probably because he heard the news that Xiao Bai had killed Pei Nanfeng, Qi Ming, who was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, felt unsafe regardless of whether Xiao Bai had helpers or not.
So, he forced the baby elephant open again.
A muscle tank wrapped around a flaming yellow baby elephant.
In Xiao Bai's opinion, he looked like a Super Saiyan!
With his palms clasped together, eight arms came out at the same time.
"The All-Seeing Demon!"
Xiao Bai didn't give him a chance to use his full strength, he raised his hand and slapped him in the air -
Bang!
The thin sword energy condensed into a giant palm.
There was a sound as the sword energy gushed out, and there was another sound as the giant palm slapped the Super Saiyan.
Before Qi Ming could react, the eight arms he had just stretched out were instantly broken.
His eyes froze, and he was blown hundreds of feet away.
The alumni tablets of the academy were broken and the baby was buried in the mountain.
The infant elephant died, Qi Ming's ribs were broken, his internal organs were shattered, and his body was almost reassembled...
The bluestone floor was shattered, and almost all the students watching in the inner circle of the battlefield were knocked to the ground, numb.
Only a few strong men with Nascent Soul cultivation or above could barely stand, staring at Xiao Bai in surprise.
"Next one."
What Xiao Bai meant was, please invite the next victim to come on stage.
He didn't expect Qi Ming to be so vulnerable. One palm strike caused him to be like this, and he hadn't even used the Gatling gun yet.
Maybe I have become too strong...
The disciples watching were dumbfounded.
How could this guy be so strong at the early stage of Yuanying? His spiritual pressure just now was only at the Yuanying stage, and he did not hide his cultivation. His sword energy was also very thin, and there was no surging power at all. Why did he have such power?
This sword energy is his destiny power?
Not far away.
On the smooth top of the Water Drop Palace.
Mu Xiangzi and Murong Yu sat cross-legged, both with expressions of watching a show.
"Has Brother Xiao become so strong now?"
Murong Yu said:
"Don't you know that three months ago, he was just a mortal? What I'm curious about is why his level-up speed has slowed down..."
Mu Xiangzi looked surprised, thought for a moment and said:
"It shows that there is a limit to the two-day weekend."
Murong Yu said:
"Logically speaking, the female demon lord can at least make him reach the level of distraction."
Mu Xiangzi was extremely envious when he heard this and said:
"Maybe she's pregnant? Who knows."
Center of the arena.
Liu Changfeng's face looked grim, and he hurried to where Qi Ming fell to check the broken stone tablet.
He tried to restore it to its original state, but the strange shock force of the sword energy shattered the stone tablet into powder...
There was almost no possibility of repairing the stone tablet, so Liu Changfeng could only apply to the school for reconstruction afterwards.
And he was the referee of this competition. He did not warn the participants in advance. Now that this happened, the academy might deduct his salary.
He had a bitter face and said nothing . The Pei family swordsman looked at the young man from the Nanmen family.
This man also has the cultivation level of the Spirit Severing Realm! The young man understood what he meant and took a step forward, appearing on the ruins of the arena.
"Xiao Tianming, try the Southern Gate Sword Technique!"
As he spoke, the young man with a long beard suddenly drew his sword, pointing the tip of the sword at Xiao Bai. He moved his feet and the tip of the sword flashed.
A stream of sword energy was launched out and hit Xiao Bai directly in the mouth!
The whole audience was silent.
This guy used the sword as a gun.
Xiao Bai looked down and saw that his clothes were a little torn and his skin was red, but fortunately there was no injury.
He withstood a sword energy from the Spiritual Realm! There was a factor of underestimating the enemy, or there was a possibility that he really didn't react in time.
Xiao Bai thought to himself that at least he was using the hilt of the sword to fire the soul-destroying bullet.
Most people also release sword energy through chopping movements.
This descendant of the South Gate actually pointed the tip of his sword at people, which really caught Xiao Bai off guard.
"What kind of swordsmanship is this!"
The descendants of the Nanmen family were also surprised.
You know, this move of his always hits the mark every time, repeatedly inflicting heavy damage on his opponents.
Seeing that Xiao Bai was fine, he raised his sword and shot at Xiao Bai wildly.
"I wonder how long you can hold on!"
Xiao Bai took a look and realized that this sword technique no longer had any element of surprise, so there was nothing to worry about.
With his defensive power, he can completely use the Black Gold Dragon Pill to withstand these weak sword energies.
However, Xiao Bai still dodged the sword energy.
He took out the Gatling gun that Feiyue had asked him to promote from the air! He held the gun barrel and confronted the long sword of the descendant of Nanmen.
Under the interference of the explosion of the soul-destroying shells, the sword energy of the descendants of Nanmen was severely absorbed and interfered.
The descendant of the Nanmen family was hit by bullets continuously. Although he was still wearing armor and his dantian was not injured, his spiritual energy was blocked and absorbed step by step by the soul-destroying bullets...
Seeing that he could not hold on any longer, he dodged and ran away, preparing to attack Xiao Bai from behind.
As a result, densely packed concentrated fire soul-destroying bombs quickly tracked them down. No matter how the descendants of Nanmen dodged in the air, they were still caught up and surrounded by the soul-destroying bombs in the sky.
It was like a huge honeycomb ball surrounded by a group of poisonous bees.
And then...boom!
A gorgeous firework exploded in the air!
The charred descendants of Nanmen fell from the sky, stuck upside down in the ruins.
His dantian wasn't injured, but his ears were pierced and his whole body was burnt, emitting the aroma of barbecue.
Xiao Bai came up to him, holding up the Gatling gun. "This is just a cut-down version of the Soul-Extinguishing Bomb. If it was the full version... you would have been blown to death."
The descendant of the Nanmen family stood up, pointed at Xiao Bai and shouted -
“You cheated!”
"Some people use swords, some use guns, and everyone uses spiritual weapons, so how can it be considered cheating? Saying this, Xiao Bai raised the Gatling gun and circled around the ruins to show off.
While introducing to the academy disciples who were watching:
"This is the latest fully automatic burst-fire locking soul-killing gun launched by the Cambrian Nation. It can be activated by practicing Qi or attaching a talisman. It does not require manual control and will automatically fire with concentrated fire."
"This is the top-of-the-line version. The price may be a bit high, but there will be lower-spec versions later... If you like it, you can go to Chaoge City in the Cambrian Kingdom to make a reservation and purchase it!"
"There is also this high-end water drop palace. I just flew into the sky above the academy in it. It has a high speed, low spiritual power consumption, is fully automatic, and can fly in all terrains and weather conditions, including land, water, air, and the abyss. It can carry four people. It is really a must-have palace for home travel, murder, and escape."
The disciples watching were all stunned.
But upon closer inspection, these spiritual weapons are indeed extraordinary and are completely different in style from those of the Taoist Alliance.
Liu Changfeng frowned and said nothing.
The swordsman of the Pei family couldn't stand it anymore. He felt like he was a pawn being fooled by Xiao Bai.
"Are you here at the academy for promotion?"
Xiao Bai nodded and said seriously: "Would I fight with a bunch of you? Just think about it, it's impossible. I'm the son of destiny. I can make millions every minute. I won't fight."
"court death!"
The Pei family swordsman was about to draw his sword! "Wait!"
Xiao Bai had no intention of fighting with the fusion realm masters, as that would expose many of his cards and make it easy for him to be targeted later.
These three people claim to be the Victims Alliance, but even the teacher at the Fusion Realm has the audacity to show up. It is obvious that they have a family backing them up. Maybe it is to test him, and the real enemy may still be behind.
It's not that he is afraid of a strong man in the initial stage of fusion, but he cannot appear too strong, otherwise, there might be a strong man in the Mahayana stage who takes the risk and attacks him secretly during his visit, which would be bad.
Thinking of this, Xiao Bai pointed at the Pei family swordsman.
"I only said I was sparring with the disciples of the academy. You, a swordsmanship teacher at the fusion level, are you trying to pretend to be a student? Where's your face!"
you--
The Pei family swordsman's face froze and he tried to remain calm.
"What's wrong with the sword master? Is the master greater than the son of destiny? Besides, I am a member of the Pei family. You killed my brother, so it's not too much to ask you to spar with me, right?"
Xiao Bai refused to obey and continued to rant: "You have to understand that your cousin Pei Nanfeng is a heretic who has been humiliating the saint for a long time. I killed him to get rid of harm to the people. Besides, I am not the only one who killed him."
What Xiao Bai said was irritating, but he also vaguely showed that he didn't want to be an enemy of the Fusion Realm.
The Pei family swordsman shamelessly asked, "Is Xiao Tianming afraid?"
Xiao Bai said coldly, "How can I, the son of destiny, be afraid of you? Although I came to the academy to study, and gave the disciples of the Nanmen family and the Qi family an opportunity to spar with each other, I only had a conflict with Qi Jianzong and Nanmen Sheng. Pei Nanfeng is the one who blasphemed the Saint Girl... The Pei family is not qualified to spar with me."
"you--"
The Pei family swordsman's eyes were as sharp as swords, shining with cold light, and the hand holding the sword was shaking slightly.
"Of course, you can spar if you want."
Xiao Bai added.
Then, he took out the fully functional doll, Xuan Ji, from the ring.
"This is my puppet. She is proficient in the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. If anyone can beat her in these few areas, I will compete with you."
The disciples watching were dumbfounded.
The female Yan doll has beautiful facial features and is dressed in an otherworldly fairy outfit. She is pure and charming, just like a real person.
The academy disciples who had been watching the show quietly also joined in the fun.
The Pei family swordsman took a look.
I just felt that the spiritual pattern of this puppet was a bit complicated. Its appearance was realistic, but there was nothing special about it. It was just a puppet with low intelligence. How could it be better than professional academy disciples in music, chess, calligraphy and painting? "Are you serious?"
Xiao Bai nodded.
"certainly."
The swordsman of the Pei family said, "Calligraphy, painting, and the zither are, after all, arts. They are illusory and may not be able to distinguish the superiority. How about comparing chess skills?"
Xiao Bai said: "Okay."
The Pei family swordsman hurriedly called out to the disciples behind him:
"Go call some disciples from the chess academy!"
"yes."
Soon, when the chess academy heard that there was a beautiful chess player, dozens of male disciples came excitedly.
The Pei family swordsman waved his hand and rebuilt a smooth stone platform on the ruins.
Xuan Ji glanced at Xiao Bai, smiled at the disciples, leaned forward and sat in front of the stone platform.
The disciples of the chess academy rushed to sit opposite her, set out the chessboard and took out the chess pieces.
"Miss Xuanji, please give me some advice!"
An hour passed...
The chess academy disciples were sweating profusely.
These disciples asked for advice, but in their hearts they actually wanted to teach Nüyanou.
However, they were really taught.
They are all cultivators and are very fast at playing chess.
But Yanou plays chess faster.
Xuan Ji played super-fast chess against nine players in a row, but no one could hold out until the endgame, and all of them surrendered in the middle of the game.
Xiao Bai shook his head and said to the disciples:
"I thought the Academy represented the pinnacle of talent and wisdom in the Tianyuan Continent, but it turned out that a puppet swept through the Chess Academy. I think you are just a bunch of rough men and a bunch of rabble. Don't let the Academy be embarrassed. It's better to change the name to Martial Arts Academy."
The disciples of the chess academy were so angry that their eyes were trembling, but they had nothing to say.
Xiao Bai continued, "Force is for barbarians. Humans don't defeat the outer demons by brute force."
"The true civilization of mankind lies in science and art. In this regard, we still have to look to our Cambrian Country. If you like Xuan Ji, you can go to the Cambrian Country to order her."
"In addition to music, chess, calligraphy and painting, Xuan Ji also has some skills that can eliminate loneliness."
"If you don't like Xuan Ji's appearance, you can customize other types."
The disciples who were watching listened with solemn expressions and were filled with excitement...
What kind of magical place is this Cambrian country? Even the angry and humiliated chess academy disciples were attracted to Xuan Ji.
Liu Changfeng became angry and embarrassed.
The swordsman of the Pei family said with a sullen face, "You scoundrel, what do you think of the academy as?"
Without waiting for Xiao Bai to agree to spar with him, he suddenly drew out his sword and raised his hand to chop at Xiao Bai.
The sword flashed, and then -
The sword energy of the fusion realm arrived instantly and landed on Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai instantly turned into a pitch-black iron man, with fully automatic armor protecting him and blocking the sword energy.
This was given to him by Feiyue for his escape. Before he escaped, his defense was strong enough.
He took the opportunity to introduce the product to everyone:
"Did you see this? This is also a Cambrian armor spiritual weapon, which can easily withstand a blow from the initial stage of fusion... It is cheaper and more durable than the Dao Alliance armor. Most importantly, it does not require spiritual power to drive it, and does not require frequent spiritual recharge. It can be easily controlled by Qi Refining. If you are interested, go to the Cambrian country to make a reservation!"
The whole audience was silent and dumbfounded.
No one has ever seen such a scene...
The disciples watching were stunned. They thought the city guy was teaching the country bumpkin a lesson, but they ended up being taught a lesson instead.
Right now, the academy had lost all face. The leaders who had been prepared to mediate did not dare to show up. Only the Pei family swordsman and teacher Liu Changfeng had to endure countless gazes, with burning pain on their faces.
Xiao Bai immediately removed his armor and did not pursue the Pei family swordsman's sneak attack any further.
After all, this guy is a kendo teacher and he was so shameless as to attack him. The Pei family, Nanmen family and Qi family must be behind him, working together to test him.
It seems that this trip will not be peaceful...
Not far away, in the Water Drop Palace, Mu Xiangzi was also shocked and sighed:
"I almost forgot that he is the current emperor of the Cambrian Kingdom. He really works hard for the country."
Murong Yu frowned.
"These weapons are too dangerous... Is there anyone who dares to buy them?"
Mu Xiangzi said:
"Maybe Xiao Bai wants to sell it to places outside of Tianyuan City. For example, my Nanhai Mu family really wants to buy it!"
…
The academy is very big, even bigger than Chaoge City.
Teacher Gu Zhen’s butterfly garden is located on an inconspicuous hillside southwest of the academy.
The entire hillside is his butterfly breeding area. In addition to conducting research, it also produces a lot of butterfly honey.
Even after retirement, she would occasionally promote a few talented female students to be her assistants.
On the eastern slope of the hill, amidst a sea of flowers, sits a vine-covered wooden house.
The wooden house doesn't look big, but that's because most of it is covered with vines and a large part of it is underground.
Garden terrace on wooden roof.
In front of rattan wood table.
Teacher Gu Zhen, dressed in a plain white linen robe, was drinking tea with Yu Hu.
Yuhu held up the butterfly honey tea, and colorful butterflies landed on her shoulders.
This long-lost feeling instantly brought her thoughts back to a hundred years ago.
The relationship between the two is a bit complicated.
When Yu Hu was a human, she was Gu Zhen's teacher.
When Yu Hu was a half-demon, he became Gu Zhen's student.
And they are both the accomplices of the Demon Alliance...
Both of them are loyal to the Demon Alliance, but they are not only loyal to the Demon Alliance.
They are all disloyal to the Dao League, yet they work together in the League.
Teacher Gu Zhen has a scholarly look on his face and looks more like a teacher than Yu Hu.
But she knew that Yu Hu's research talent was far superior to hers.
"You just rejected the invitation letter from the academy not long ago. Why are you suddenly coming to the headquarters?"
Yuhu took a sip of Diemi tea.
"I'm here to relax."
Gu Zhen waited for a long time but did not see Xiao Bai.
"Where's Xiao Bai?"
Yu Hu smiled and said:
"You miss him?"
Gu Zhen's eyes moved slightly.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I thought you brought him here for something important."
Yu Hu then said:
"He is dealing with some trivial matters in the academy and will be here soon."
Gu Zhen knew Yu Hu very well. If it wasn't something important, this woman would never leave the alchemy room.
"You are willing to come to Tianyuan City, it must be because you have made new progress in your research."
Yu Hu put down the teacup and said, "Perhaps, we should secretly shut down that weapon."
Gu Zhen shook his head.
"Unfortunately, the weapon has merged with the human and has become human. We can no longer shut it down."
"Fortunately, the chief referee Luo Tian has not yet taken this weapon seriously. He only uses it as a backup plan and allows the child to grow freely. In his opinion, the Dao Alliance cannot be so weak as to need to use this kind of weapon."
Yu Huqing frowned slightly and said:
"That weapon is enough to affect the fate of the world. It is impossible for him not to take it seriously. Maybe someone is watching him. Maybe he has a bigger conspiracy."
"The plan to destroy all of humanity is too radical and involves unpredictable risks... I brought Xiao Bai here to see if there are any other options."
Gu Zhen was shocked.
"Why, after getting married, even you have become gentle?"
Yu Hu's eyes were calm, and he stopped talking and said directly, "I came here this time to meet Red Viper... himself."
Gu Zhen was slightly alert:
"Lord Red Viper's identity is top secret. You can tell me anything you want to say."
Yu Hu smiled sweetly: "Can you take a day off with her man for her?"
Gu Zhen:
"you……"
…
Tiancheng District.
Tiandao Palace.
Tiandao Palace is the headquarters of the Dao League.
It is similar in appearance and structure to the Jiandao Palace, but is a hundred times larger.
Tiandao Palace is the highest point in Tianyuan Continent, higher than the highest mountain in the Great Wilderness.
There are nine floors in total, each floor is a thousand feet high, and each floor is a small world with a teleportation array inside.
Some are closed, some are open. There are high-rise buildings, gardens and rockery inside. They look like buildings, but in fact they are half mountain and half building.
The top floor is open air.
Here there are white clouds floating in the sky and waves of flying cranes.
There is a high platform in the misty clouds.
There are mountains, water and fields on the platform.
In the neatly arranged fields, there are three or two ancient-style human-shaped armors working automatically, planting rice, plowing the fields, harvesting wheat, and growing vegetables...
A faint green light emanated from the Yan armor, and three or two birds were standing on it, making a creaking sound as if the wood was turning.
Green bamboos and ancient pines grow together on the mountain.
There is also a Taoist temple on the top of the mountain.
It is a very quaint courtyard Taoist temple, in the middle of which grows a peach tree that is who knows how many tens of thousands of years old. The trunk is as twisted as a coiled dragon, and it has no leaves, only flowers.
The strange thing is that the flowers keep falling, but they never stop falling...
The peach tree grows on a broken stone tablet.
The white inscriptions were disrupted and then strangely reassembled.
A young lady walked out slowly from the North Pavilion, holding two cups of hot tea.
The woman's facial features and figure were perfect, she looked celestial and out of this world, but her posture and movements were a little stiff, not like those of a human.
This is a female puppet.
"Dean, the tea is here."
Nüyan brought the tea to two old men who were playing chess under a peach tree.
A black hair.
A white hair.
The black-haired old man was wearing a gray gown and holding a palm-leaf fan. His facial features were shriveled, his body was thin, and his eyes were gray, giving people the illusion that he was about to die.
But this old man was very shrewd. His seemingly dry pupils were secretly wandering around Yan Ji, who was serving tea and watching chess nearby.
The old man is the dean of the academy.
Old Master.
He also has another identity, the Taoist leader.
That is, he is the number one person in the Taoist Alliance and the strongest person in the world.
However, he prefers others to call him the dean rather than the Taoist leader.
He hasn't stepped out of the top floor for a hundred years.
"You lose again."
The Taoist leader sighed.
Being the only one who seeks to be defeated in the game of chess does not make him feel a bit happy.
The person playing chess against him was an old man with white hair.
He has white hair and looks like an immortal, but his spirit is a little weak.
"I've said it before... the chess skills of immortals are not much better than those of mortals."
The Taoist leader waved his fan and said, "I don't believe it."
“Although I only got a glimpse of it, the inscription clearly contains some kind of computing power.”
"The inscription comes from the immortal world. How could an immortal lose to a mortal like me?"
The white-haired old man yawned continuously, resigned himself to the defeat, and didn't want to play another round.
"Maybe playing chess is too boring."
The Taoist leader still insisted:
"Just like it would be boring if you can't catch any fish, how can it be fun if you can't win at chess? Come on, you're almost there, and then you'll be happy, and I'll be happy too."
The white-haired old man stretched himself lazily and sighed, "I should go out for a walk."
The Taoist leader curled his lips.
"Luo Tian has managed the Dao League and the entire human world in perfect order. You have nothing to inspect. Why don't you compensate me by playing chess? Maybe you will realize the truth... Becoming an immortal is not the end, right?"
The white-haired old man said:
"You should know that I stayed in the human world not for inspection... but to protect a certain child of destiny."
The Taoist leader smiled.
"The seven sons of destiny can unite to kill that damned ultimate demon...Haha, does the immortal world also believe in the game of destiny?"
The white-haired old man asked back:
"You don't think that the Destiny Child is a human force, do you?"
The Taoist leader shrugged and shook his head:
"That's just hitting yourself."
The white-haired old man's face suddenly darkened.
"Watch your words, Dao Shou-sama."
The Taoist leader didn't listen to his threats at all.
"Your pretense is very similar to your chess style. You don't think that I don't know that you have an avatar living freely in the human world, do you?"

Dao Shou:
