Chapter 281 The Black Lotus Saint Sneaking into the Taoist Temple
The Nanli Suzaku is a divine beast made entirely of formations, runes, spiritual energy, and many special materials.
It is so large that it stretches for several kilometers, like a towering giant perched on the Nanli volcano.
Even though Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye were in mid-air, they still couldn't see the full picture of this "special beast".
Moreover, neither Lu Chen nor Mu Xiaoye thought that this artificial beast created with psychic technology would be just a showpiece.
Because apart from anything else, Nanli Zhuque's terrifying size alone is enough to crush most Nascent Soul cultivators.
Lu Chen even vaguely felt an unspeakable pressure from this Nanli Suzaku.
The strength of this Nanli Suzaku is definitely comparable to that of a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage, and a top-level one at that.
"How is it? Shocking, right?"
Gu Jingwen looked at Nanli Suzaku in front of her, unable to hide the pride on her face.
It can be seen that the Nanli Suzaku is not only the guardian beast that protects the Lihuo Taoist Academy, but also the spiritual symbol of countless students in the academy.
After saying that, Gu Jingwen drove to a feather at the tail.
Nanli Suzaku's twelve mechanical feathers hung down from the volcano.
Like chains reaching the sky, they connect to the Lihuo Taoist Temple whose top is built on the body of Nanli Zhuque.
The location where the three of them were at this time was the north gate, one of the three gates of Lihuo Taoist Academy: north, east, and west.
"Brother Lu, Sister Mu, we are here."
When Lu Chen and the other two got off the psychic armored vehicle, what came into view was a large crowd gathered at the north gate of the school.
These people include senior students from Lihuo Taoist Academy.
There are also a large number of new students who will be enrolling this year, as well as their attendants and family members who are worried about the new students coming to the temple alone and accompany them.
Originally, Mu Xiaoye's father Mu Chengjun also wanted to come along.
But because Mu Chengjun is the captain of the Luocheng Law Enforcement Team, he really can't get away.
In addition, Lu Chen was accompanying them along the way, so Mu Chengjun finally felt at ease to let Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye come alone.
To Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye's surprise, after they got off the car, they felt that many people were looking at them.
This made Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye, who had just arrived, very uncomfortable.
But soon, Lu Chen discovered that those people were not looking at him and Mu Xiaoye.
But it was Gu Jingwen beside them and her wild and domineering car.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen looked at Gu Jingwen curiously.
It seemed that she noticed Lu Chen's gaze.
Gu Jingwen adjusted his glasses and said with a smile: "My father is not talented, but he is the chairman of 'Xuanhuo Heavy Industry' in Nanli City."
"Understood."
It turned out that he was a famous rich and immortal second-generation in Nanli City. No wonder so many adults looked at Gu Jingwen with a slightly flattering look.
Although those who can enter Lihuo Taoist Temple are basically not simple.
However, there is also a gap between those who leave Huo Daoyuan at the same time.
There is no doubt that Gu Jingwen's status is still among the best even in the Lihuo Taoist Academy where geniuses gather.
Perhaps he felt that Lu Chen could not understand the value of the four words "Xuanhuo Heavy Industry".
Gu Jingwen immediately added: "The Nanli Suzaku under your feet was partly built by our family business. So, you should understand, right?"
Lu Chen had thought that Gu Jingwen's family was very powerful, but he didn't expect them to be so powerful.
Although Gu Jingwen did not say it explicitly, Lu Chen knew that the part her family was involved in was definitely not just some marginal material.
These should be some of the more core parts of this guardian beast.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen felt that he still knew too little about the real world.
Before leaving Los Angeles, I was limited by the information channels of Los Angeles itself.
As a result, he actually knew very little about the Immortal Alliance.
Apart from anything else, the so-called "psychic technology" of Nanli City and the "psychic armor" that can allow low-level cultivators to burst out with strength comparable to that of high-level cultivators are all new knowledge that Lu Chen has never known before.
Just taking a glimpse of the whole thing, we can see that Qinghe Taoist Academy, Manhuang Taoist Academy, and Xuanshui Taoist Academy, which are as famous as Lihuo Taoist Academy, definitely have their own unique features.
And this uniqueness is by no means as simple as he had thought before.
If you think about it carefully, the time gap between the Immortal Alliance and the Zhongzhou Immortal Cultivation World in the game is at least tens of thousands of years.
After tens of thousands of years, there is no reason why the development of the immortal cultivation world has not only not progressed, but has regressed.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen suddenly felt that perhaps he should pay more attention to the Taoist temple in reality.
Perhaps he could gain unexpected rewards in these Taoist temples.
"Brother Lu, sister Mu, please follow me. I will take you to the sign-in office to report."
Under the leadership of Gu Jingwen, the three of them quickly passed through the north gate of Lihuo Taoist Temple and arrived at a square.
As soon as they arrived at the square, Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye were attracted by the lively scene before them.
The square is divided into several areas according to the type of college.
Among them, the one with the largest number of reports and the largest area is the 'Alchemy Branch' of Lihuo Taoist Academy.
And this is where Lu Chen is going to report.
As for Mu Xiaoye, although she possesses the Phoenix Tribulation Fire, she herself has no interest in alchemy.
Therefore, the place she reported to was the 'Practical Branch'.
However, the branch college is only to give students a relatively clear direction for their future, rather than to determine the future of students in the Taoist college.
Theoretically, if a student wants, he can even study all the courses in the college.
The prerequisite is that he has such energy and sufficient talent.
"Brother Lu, this is the reporting office of the Alchemy Branch. Once you report successfully, seniors from the same school will take you to the dormitory. Of course, given your situation, you can apply for a private cave residence on the first day of school. This is not a problem for you. It is up to you whether to do so."
"Ms. Mu's practical branch is a little far from the main campus, and she doesn't know the way very well. I will take her to the practical branch first. Is it okay for you to go alone?"
Lu Chen nodded, indicating to Gu Jingwen that he didn't need her help for the time being.
After getting Lu Chen's consent, Gu Jingwen took Mu Xiaoye towards the practical branch in the distance.
After the two men walked away, a senior from the Alchemy Academy couldn't help but step forward and say, "My junior, you are not the little sword fairy who appeared in Luocheng, Qingzhou this time, right?"
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then he immediately understood why the other party recognized him even though they had never met before.
I think he recognized Gu Jingwen and Mu Xiaoye beside him.
The former's special identity destined her to be quite famous in Lihuo Taoist Academy.
The latter's identity as a Phoenix Tribulation cultivator will certainly be the focus of attention of the students of Lihuo Taoist Academy.
As for me, it goes without saying what my identity is since I can stay with these two people for a long time.
"Senior, you are too kind. I don't deserve to be called the Little Sword Immortal. I just know a little bit about swordsmanship."
Hearing this, the senior's mouth twitched slightly.
What a great guy, he knows a thing or two, has the cultivation level of Jindan stage, and has the sword domain of Hedao realm.
You haven't even entered school yet, but you've already achieved something that most Taoist academy graduates can't achieve.
If you know a little bit about this, then what are we? Uncivilized upright apes? Although I want to complain, strength is respected in the world of immortal cultivation.
Lu Chen's strength at the Jindan stage meant that he was destined to be a freshman in name only.
But his status in the college is almost the same as that of a tutor.
Those who can be admitted to Lihuo Taoist Academy are not idiots, and naturally they would not think of offending a great cultivator like Lu Chen who is bound to achieve great things in the future.
So after hearing Lu Chen's inappropriate remarks, the senior student smiled awkwardly but politely.
"Junior Lu is indeed as humble as the rumors say. Although I don't know why you, with your sword skills, didn't go to Qinghe Daoyuan, which focuses on sword cultivation, but came to our Lihuo Daoyuan, I think Junior Lu has your own considerations."
"Here, this is our Taoist Academy's exclusive student watch. Junior Brother Lu, you just need to infuse your divine thoughts into it and fill in your student number, and you will have completed your enrollment registration."
"Brother, don't underestimate this watch. It contains a lot of the latest spiritual energy technology of our Lihuo Daoyuan. At the critical moment, the effect it exerts is even no less than a second-level magic weapon. It is a good thing that cannot be bought at all."
"And with your performance in the college entrance examination, Junior Brother Lu, I think you have accumulated a lot of points in your watch."
"Junior, if you have time, you can check the credit store in your watch to see if there is anything you need."
"In addition, credits also determine how long you can use special buildings in the academy in the future. They are the most valuable assets in the academy. Remember not to use them recklessly."
"But with your ability, it shouldn't be difficult to get credits, so how to allocate the credits is up to you, junior brother."
After saying that, the senior handed the watch to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen took the watch and looked at it curiously.
It was a special watch that was red and black in color and seemed to be made of lava stone.
Lu Chen only used his divine sense to sense it and found that there were hundreds of micro-array formations in this small watch, as well as many special materials that he had never seen before.
These things are linked together and finally form this special watch.
Lu Chen put the watch on his wrist and infused his spiritual thoughts into it.
The next second, Lu Chen saw a data panel similar to "Real Cultivation of Immortality" appear in front of him.
[Name: Lu Chen]
【Student number: 150101】
[Cultivation: First stage of Golden Core Stage]
【Credits: 1 million】
Lu Chen was a little surprised when he looked at his one million points.
Although he had thought that he had a lot of credits, he didn't expect it to be so few.
You know, he just took a quick look at the credit mall and found that the exchange price of a third-level spiritual treasure in the credit mall was just over 500,000.
In other words, he was able to directly exchange for two third-level spiritual treasures as soon as he entered school.
However, for Lu Chen at the moment, ordinary spiritual treasures did not bring much improvement to him.
Besides, he has not forgotten the agreement he made with the Lihuo Guidance Admissions Office.
At that time, they said that as long as they could get the top prize in Qingzhou, they would be able to apply to Lihuo Taoist Academy.
Then they will give themselves a fourth-level Taoist weapon.
Lu Chen did not doubt that Lihuo Taoist Academy would default on its debt. He was just curious about what kind of Taoist weapon Lihuo Taoist Academy would give him.
Just as Lu Chen was about to study the watch in his hand, he sensed something and suddenly turned his head to look in a certain direction.
I saw that it was a girl with outstanding appearance and extraordinary temperament.
While everyone was wearing modern clothes, the girl broke with her usual style and wore a white ancient costume.
She stood in the crowd, like a fairy who had strayed into the mortal world, seeming out of place with her surroundings.
However, what caught Lu Chen's attention was not her stunning appearance.
Rather, they were pure eyes that were ethereal and seemed to see through everything in the world.
Lu Chen had seen similar eyes not long ago.
That is the incarnation of the Black Lotus Buddha Mother who has achieved "Purity of the Six Senses".
If I hadn't felt the power of ancient magic from this girl.
Lu Chen even suspected that this girl was the newly condensed incarnation of the Black Lotus Buddha Mother.
The girl was originally walking towards the alchemy branch where Lu Chen was, but strangely, when Lu Chen looked at her, the girl suddenly stopped and looked at Lu Chen.
In an instant, Lu Chen felt that something in his body seemed to be aroused by the girl in front of him.
Fortunately, this feeling comes and goes quickly.
The girl looked at Lu Chen calmly and walked towards the reporting area next to him.
However, at this time, the seniors from the Alchemy Branch who were reporting to the office had already been captivated by the girl's beauty and were all in a state of obsession.
Even the senior students next to me were the same.
This is obviously abnormal.
This girl... is a little weird.
Lu Chen looked at the other person deeply, then walked towards the teaching building.
Because he had received a message on his watch from the counselor asking the freshmen of this class to gather somewhere in the teaching building.
Besides, it is not polite to investigate a person rashly.
But before leaving, Lu Chen deliberately heard the girl say his name when she reported... He Ziling.
Not long after Lu Chen left, He Ziling glanced at Lu Chen's departing back.
He Ziling, or the contemporary saint of the Black Lotus Sect, Ji Linghui, never expected that she would meet the scattered 'holy sons' of the Black Lotus Sect on the first day of school.
Although her master, the Black Lotus Buddha Mother, did not say much about Lu Chen.
But Ji Linghui still learned a lot about Lu Chen from the other 'Six Desire Vajra'.
There is no other reason. It is because in the history of the Black Lotus Sect, the Holy Son and the Holy Daughter are not only the second most important existence in the Black Lotus Sect after the Buddha Mother, but also the only two who can compete for the qualification of the Buddha Mother.
If we only look at the history of the Black Lotus Sect, then between her and Lu Chen... only one can survive.
For Ji Linghui, who was born with a "superior aptitude" and had no distractions.
She doesn't really care about life or death.
Therefore, he has no hostility towards Lu Chen, who may kill him in the future.
But there are some things that are beyond her control.
For example, the Black Lotus Fruit in her body had an urge to devour Lu Chen the moment it met him.
Although she had suppressed the Dao Fruit in her body at the first moment.
But Lu Chen must have also noticed the special sensation that occurred at that moment.
Ji Linghui didn't know whether Lu Chen could guess her true identity through this time.
But she felt that she might have to be more careful in the academy in the future.
After all, with her current strength, she is definitely no match for Lu Chen in a one-on-one situation.
She doesn't care about her own life.
But she must never let her master down.
After all, the master is the most important person in the world to her.
