Chapter 29: Wind and Thunder Prefecture Shaken
After Zhao Wuji took the token, he suddenly felt a massive amount of Spiritual Qi surging into his Dantian as if without limit, and his eyes instantly widened.
Zhao Wuji, who was already at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, directly reached Nascent Soul Great Perfection under the impact of this Spiritual Qi.
He looked at Zhou Xinghe in disbelief, and Zhou Xinghe also looked at him in disbelief.
Zhao Wuji sighed at this moment, “It’s a pity I, Zhao Wuji, do not have a Rank 6 Cultivation Technique. If I did, I, Zhao Wuji, would have hope of Breaking Through to the Soul Transformation Stage within twenty years.”
At this moment, Zhao Wuji was filled with infinite longing for Soul Transformation, but also a sense of loss regarding the Cultivation Technique problem.
“The assessment is now complete. All Disciples, please keep your tokens safe. This will be the only proof of whether you can enjoy the special privileges of the Qin Family Immortal Academy.”
“Next is the Cultivation Technique issue. All Disciples can use their tokens to go to the Ten Thousand Paths Cultivation Method Pavilion to comprehend a Cultivation Technique. What kind of Cultivation Technique you can obtain depends on your own Opportunity.”
At this moment, Qin Xiong stood on the high platform and said indifferently.
Then he continued, “This person beside me is an Elder of the Martial Arts Academy of the Qin Family Immortal Academy. Currently, our Qin Family Immortal Academy only has a Martial Arts Academy. We will later establish a Pill Dao Institute, an Artifact Dao Institute, a Formation Dao Institute, a Talisman Dao Institute, a Sword Dao Institute, and so on, which will encompass various professions of the entire Profound Heaven Continent. Now, Elder Wuji Zi of the Martial Arts Academy will conduct your assessment.”
Upon hearing this, all the Disciples instantly became excited. It turned out that entering the Qin Family Immortal Academy was just the first step, and there were so many other professions within the Qin Family Immortal Academy.
And when Zhao Wuji heard the words “Martial Arts Academy,” he was completely drawn in. He had a premonition that if he could join the Martial Arts Academy, his life would undergo earth-shattering changes.
He made up his mind that he must join the Martial Arts Academy.
“This old man, Wuji Zi, is an Elder of the Martial Arts Academy of the Qin Family Immortal Academy. My assessment is very simple: no matter who it is, as long as they can pass through this Formation, they can enter the Martial Arts Academy to Cultivate.”
Although Wuji Zi’s voice was very soft, it echoed in everyone’s ears like a booming bell, full of endless majesty.
Then Wuji Zi waved his hand, and a Formation appeared before everyone, with countless mists swirling within it.
“Begin the assessment.”
Wuji Zi said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuji directly rushed into the Formation and then disappeared.
Seeing someone rush in, the others no longer hesitated and rushed into the Formation one after another.
When Zhao Wuji rushed into the Formation, he found himself in an endless desert.
Suddenly, the surrounding desert began to squirm, and Zhao Wuji vigilantly looked around.
Hundreds of thousands of desert illusionary beasts rushed towards Zhao Wuji, each with the Cultivation of a Nascent Soul Early Stage.
Zhao Wuji looked around gravely. Although he knew this was a Formation and the desert illusionary beasts were undoubtedly fake, the strength of these desert illusionary beasts was too realistic. He had a feeling that if he allowed these illusionary beasts to attack him, he would surely die.
Zhao Wuji did not dare to hesitate and thought to himself, “I must join the Martial Arts Academy. This might be the greatest Opportunity of my life. If I cannot join, I will regret it forever.”
Then Zhao Wuji took out his weapon and directly rushed into the desert illusionary beasts, beginning to fight them.
Before long, Zhao Wuji had several wounds on his body, and half of the desert illusionary beasts had been killed by Zhao Wuji. At this moment, the Spiritual Qi in Zhao Wuji’s body was almost depleted.
“What should I do? In my current state, I can’t possibly kill all these illusionary beasts, and I might even perish within this Formation. Why is this assessment so difficult?”
“No, I must pass the assessment.”
Having made up his mind, Zhao Wuji directly burned his Cultivation, and instantly, a terrifying Aura emanated directly from Zhao Wuji’s body. This was the Cultivation of a Half-Step Soul Transformation.
And those desert illusionary beasts, upon sensing the terrifying pressure of Half-Step Soul Transformation, showed a hint of fear.
Zhao Wuji no longer hesitated and once again rushed into the illusionary beast crowd. Under the crushing power of Half-Step Soul Transformation, those Nascent Soul Early Stage desert illusionary beasts were quickly slaughtered.
Zhao Wuji breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could recover, thousands of Nascent Soul Middle Stage desert strange beasts instantly appeared around him again.
At this moment, those strange beasts had red eyes and rushed towards Zhao Wuji again.
Zhao Wuji felt despair. Under the attack of thousands of Nascent Soul Middle Stage strange beasts, even if he was a Half-Step Soul Transformation, he would surely die.
“Even if I die, I’ll drag you down with me!”
At this moment, Zhao Wuji roared and once again rushed into the desert illusionary beasts.
Before long, Zhao Wuji was torn apart by the desert illusionary beasts and then lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, Zhao Wuji found himself standing beside Wuji Zi, and there were four or five Golden Core Cultivators beside him, but Zhou Xinghe was not among them.
Zhao Wuji checked his physical condition at this moment and found that he had not suffered any harm.
“Could it be that what was inside the Formation was really an illusion? But everything inside the Formation was simply too real. And that feeling of death, I really don’t want to experience it a second time.”
Zhao Wuji gasped at this moment and said.
Wuji Zi smiled and said, “Congratulations on passing the Formation assessment. You are now Disciples of my Martial Arts Academy.”
Zhao Wuji was overjoyed, then bowed and said, “Greetings, Elder Wuji Zi.”
Meanwhile, the other Disciples showed a sense of disappointment.
Qin Xiong said at this moment, “Disciples who did not enter the Martial Arts Academy will all be assigned to the Outer Academy, managed by Zhou Xinghe as the Outer Academy Elder.”
Zhou Xinghe was still bothered by not having entered the Martial Arts Academy just now, but he didn’t expect happiness to come so suddenly. He transformed and actually became an Outer Academy Elder. Although he didn’t know what Rank the Outer Academy was in the Qin Family Immortal Academy, even if it was the worst, he was still an Elder.
“Zhou Xinghe accepts the command.”
At this moment, Zhou Xinghe said excitedly.
Meanwhile, within the Wind and Thunder Prefecture, the mysterious disappearance of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect caused a stir throughout the entire Wind and Thunder Prefecture.
Anyone with a bit of strength in the Wind and Thunder Prefecture knew that there was a Human Immortal expert overseeing the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, and countless Undergoing Tribulation experts within the sect. It was truly one of the Peak forces in the Wind and Thunder Prefecture.
“Report, Prefecture Lord, your subordinate just received news from the teleportation array that the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect has moved their entire sect to Heavenly Origin City, and Mo San, the Saint of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, along with more than ten Body Integration Peak Elders, also went to Heavenly Origin City and have not returned.”
At this time, a guard knelt in a magnificent hall, speaking to a middle-aged man with sharp eyes sitting at the very front.
Around the hall stood dozens of people, the highest in Cultivation being Undergoing Tribulation Great Perfection, and the lowest being Soul Transformation Great Perfection. These people were the City Lords of various cities in the Wind and Thunder Prefecture. Evidently, due to the disappearance of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, all the City Lords were gathered in the Wind and Thunder Prefecture at this moment.
“Which one is the City Lord of Heavenly Origin City?” At this moment, Liu Xuanzhen, the Prefecture Lord of Wind and Thunder Prefecture, said indifferently.
But no one present responded.
At this moment, a guard said, “Prefecture Lord, the Divine Soul jade pendant of Wu Xiong, the City Lord of Heavenly Origin City, has already shattered. He must have perished.”
Liu Xuanzhen rubbed his forehead. To be honest, he was exhausted at this moment. Others might not know the true foundation of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, but as the Prefecture Lord, he knew that the Ten Thousand Demons Sect was one of the branches of the Wanmo Palace in Shuo Province.
The Wanmo Palace was one of the top forces in Shuo Province; even the Provincial Lord had to treat the Wanmo Palace cautiously. He himself had been carefully managing his relationship with the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.
Yet, he didn’t expect the Ten Thousand Demons Sect to simply vanish. How was he supposed to explain this to the Provincial Lord and the Wanmo Palace? A slight misstep, and the entire Wind and Thunder Prefecture would be destroyed.
Liu Xuanzhen said, “Envoy Huangfu, go to Heavenly Origin City and investigate the reason for the Heavenly Origin City City Lord’s demise. Also, find out why the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect went to Heavenly Origin City, and the whereabouts of Mo San, the Saint of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.”
