Battle Through the Heavens: Exceptional Comprehension, Becomes Emperor at Ten Years Old

Chapter 131 Mang Tianzhi!

Canaan College.

A spatial rift appeared above the inner courtyard, and then Mang Tianchi's figure flashed out from it.

"Finally back. Seems like nothing's changed?" Mang Tianchi muttered.

Everything seemed normal inside the inner courtyard, and Mang Tianchi was very satisfied with the current state of the academy.

"Let's go find that brat Su Qian first," Mang Tianchi said, before disappearing from sight.

In a secret chamber in the inner courtyard, Su Qian was cultivating when he suddenly felt a spatial fluctuation.

The first thing Su Qian saw when she opened her eyes was a figure standing in front of her. "Dean, Dean?"

The old man in front of me, dressed in somewhat tattered robes, is none other than Dean Mang Tianchi, who left many years ago.

"You're back so soon?" Su Qian asked in surprise.

Mang Tianchi looked at Su Qian and chuckled, "These past years, thanks to you all at the academy, you've really worked hard!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of resentment appeared in Su Qian's eyes.

"Dean, you have the nerve to say that? You haven't come back to visit the academy once in all these years, but you came all the way back because of a prodigy!" Su Qian sighed.

Mang Tianchi laughed and said, "That's no ordinary genius. According to your assessment, even the top geniuses of the Thunder Clan can't compare!"

"You must know that the Thunder Clan members all possess the bloodline of a Dou Di (Battle Emperor), so their cultivation speed will inevitably surpass that of other thunder-attribute experts. This is a natural advantage!"

Su Qian then looked at Mang Tianchi and said, "Dean, there's one more thing I didn't explain clearly in the letter, and I need to tell you about it now."

"You're not trying to say that the person you're telling me about is someone you made up, are you?" Mang Tianchi stared at Su Qian with slightly wide eyes.

Su Qian waved his hand and said, "Why would I fabricate such a genius?"

"Who knows? Did they lure me back?" Mang Tianchi stroked his chin and looked at Su Qian suspiciously.

Su Qian said helplessly, "That's not what I meant, but you're definitely interested, Dean!"

"The Jiahe I'm telling you about is different from ordinary cultivators like us; he cultivates more attributes than most of us!"

"It seems that Jiahe has cultivated four types of energy: fire, wood, lightning, and ice!" Su Qian said, looking at Mang Tianchi.

Mang Tianchi's eyes widened in surprise as he looked at Su Qian and asked, "Really?"

Su Qian nodded and said, "It's true, I saw it with my own eyes!"

Mang Tianchi sat down on a chair and muttered, "That shouldn't be the case. Aren't fire and ice attributes mutually exclusive?"

"If it's both fire and wood attributes, then it's possible to be an alchemist. But that doesn't make sense. Isn't it said that alchemists have fire and wood attributes in their bodies, with fire as the primary element and wood as the secondary element?" Mang Tianchi sat in his chair, scratching his head in confusion.

Su Qian said, "Dean, why don't you come with me to the Imperial City now and get to the bottom of this?"

Mang Tianchi slapped his chair and said, "That makes sense. Let's set off now!"

Su Qian glanced at Mang Tianchi's robes and quickly said, "Dean, shouldn't you change your clothes?"

"Right, right, right, look what I told you, I'd forgotten!" Mang Tianchi said.

Su Qian then gave Mang Tianchi a set of robes to change into, and the two flew together toward the imperial city.

On the way, Mang Tianchi looked at Su Qian and said, "These past few years you've been so busy with affairs at the academy that you've neglected your cultivation!"

Su Qian smiled wryly, "There are many affairs in the inner courtyard, and I also had to suppress the Fallen Heart Flame. As a result, I have indeed become quite lax in my cultivation."

"If Nagahe is really as good as you say, and the Black Corner Region has become his domain, why not let Canaan Academy join him as well?" Mang Tianchi suddenly said.

Su Qian said, "I will follow the Dean's instructions!"

Mang Tianchi chuckled, stroking his beard, and said, "Back then, when I found this place in the Black Corner Region to establish Canaan Academy, it was not only on a whim, but also because of that Fallen Heart Flame in the inner courtyard!"

"The Fallen Heart Flame that appeared beneath the magma back then had already developed some intelligence. I originally wanted to subdue it, but due to the nature of my cultivation and the risks involved in devouring the strange flame, I decided to give up after much consideration."

"If the Yan Clan finds out that there is a Fallen Heart Flame here, they will definitely come and fight over it!" Mang Tianchi chuckled.

Su Qian said, "The reinforcement of the seal on the Fallen Heart Flame this time was done by Jia He. The Fallen Heart Flame is now much stronger than when the Dean sealed it before."

"That's how strange fires have always been. I just don't know if strange fires can devour each other. If so, the strange fires that are born would be quite terrifying," Mang Tianchi sighed.

Little did they know that it was Mang Tianchi's words that revealed the secret of the evolution of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor and Xiao Yan!

Su Qian looked at Mang Tianchi and asked again, "Does Dean know of the Medicine Venerable?"

Mang Tianchi suddenly stopped and looked at Su Qian, saying, "Master Yao? How do you know him?"

Su Qian said, "Uh, the soul of the Medicine Venerable is currently in my inner courtyard!"

"The soul? I see, I see!" Mang Tianchi suddenly realized.

Seeing the Dean's expression, Su Qian quickly said, "Actually, I learned this a year ago during the great battle with the Soul Hall. The original Medicine Emperor, Han Feng, seemed to be the disciple of the Medicine Venerable, but he betrayed the Medicine Venerable, and the Soul Hall wants the Medicine Venerable's soul!"

"The Medicine Venerable has taken on another disciple in recent years, a student of my Canaan Academy, named Xiao Yan!"

"When we get back, have Xiao Yan come to see me!" Mang Tianchi said, then flew off again.

Su Qian responded and then quickly followed.

Before long, the massive outline of the imperial city appeared before Mang Tianchi's eyes.

"What a grand gesture! In this Black Corner Region, the Imperial Prison is probably the number one power now, isn't it?" Mang Tianchi said calmly.

Su Qian said, "They are probably the most powerful force in the Northwest Continent!"

Mang Tianchi said, "If this boy goes to Zhongzhou, he will truly transform like a dragon amidst the changing winds. Let's see if he's willing to leave with me this time!"

Su Qian's expression changed slightly as she asked, "Is the Dean leaving?"

Mang Tianchi looked at Su Qianyi and sighed, "As you know, I'm a person who loves freedom and has always enjoyed traveling around. Canaan Academy won't have any other forces causing trouble in the Northwest Continent, but it's a different story in the Central Continent!"

"In the Central Plains, various forces are vying for power. Just those one palace, one tower, two sects, three valleys, and four pavilions are forces that Canaan Academy cannot handle."

"Not to mention the eight ancient clans. In recent years, the Soul Palace's behavior on the continent has become increasingly arrogant, secretly arousing the dissatisfaction of many, but there's not much that can be done. The Soul Clan is simply too mysterious and powerful!"

Su Qian glanced at Mang Tianchi with some surprise. Even the Dean found it so troublesome, let alone them.

The two figures swept across the imperial city and soon arrived outside the central hall.

Gah was cultivating with his eyes closed when he sensed an extremely powerful aura approaching, and immediately opened his eyes.

That aura was far more powerful than that of Venerable Qinghai. Jiahe murmured, "It must be Dean Mang Tianchi from Canaan Academy!"
