I flew on a sword at the magic academy

Although Wu Yang Shengzi didn't react much to what Si Kongqing said, the onlookers around him were all intrigued and started whispering among themselves.

Sikong Qing stared at Wu Yang Shengzi and said, "Don't you know? Fairy Xiyu gave her personal fragrant robe to one of our young brothers."

These words caused a stir among the audience.

"What did I just hear?! The Holy Maiden of Wuyang gave away what of hers?"

"A scented undergarment? Is it that amazing!?"

"There's some big news!"

Jiang Xiyu raised her eyebrows slightly, her graceful body like a wisp of smoke veiling the bright moon, making her seem as if she were in a fairyland.

"Sikong Qing, it seems you really have no intention of leaving here alive."

Those familiar with the temperament of the Holy Maiden of Wuyang know that her killing intent has reached its peak at this moment. If they weren't on the territory of the Celestial Academy, she would probably have already drawn her sword and started killing.

"Jiang Xiyu, what do you mean? You're already having an ambiguous, messy relationship with that young man in our line of work. We're practically family now. How can you still be thinking of killing us to cover it up? We're a prestigious family in the Desolate State, after all. Is becoming in-laws with us something shameful?"

"Sikong Qing, stop talking nonsense!" An elder from the Celestial Academy scolded Sikong Qing, warning that if he continued to spout nonsense, the situation would definitely get out of control.

"Alright, alright, I won't say anymore." Sikong Qing pouted and decided not to continue, wisely stepping aside.

The Holy Son of Wuyang was as gentle and refined as jade, his robes fluttering in the breeze, making him stand out even in a sea of ​​people.

As for Jiang Xiyu standing beside him, she was like a woman who had stepped out of a myth, beautiful to the extreme, with fair skin and delicate bones, every frown and smile could bewitch people's hearts.

"How hateful, young brother, how did you do that?!" Sikong Qing looked up to the sky and cried out in despair.

He said that the intimate clothing of the Holy Maiden of Wuyang was in the hands of their junior brothers, which was just a fabrication, but the intimate clothing of Shi Daohan of Shushan was indeed obtained by that junior brother.

"Shi Daohan is a once-in-a-millennium genius of Shu Mountain. Her talent surpasses that of ancient sages and worthies. Sooner or later, she will be appointed as a saintess. This young man is truly capable." Sikong Qing said with a bitter face.

At this moment, the holy son and holy daughter of Wuyang Mountain were led into the waterside pavilion.

Clearly, they were old acquaintances, and the authorities did not want them to be at odds with Sikong Qing.

In the distance, Shi Daohan let out a long breath. She really didn't want to meet the Holy Maiden of Wuyang. Because of Sikong Qing's fabrication, she had inexplicably become a lecherous thief who stole other people's personal clothing. She was truly caught in the crossfire.

She began to examine the nine stones again. There was definitely something inside these stones, and it certainly wasn't just a simple spirit stone.

Suddenly, Shi Daohan felt a jolt in her heart. She stared at the largest stone with her double pupils. Although she did not capture any useful information, she felt inexplicably uneasy. What was inside was definitely extraordinary!

This rock is three or four meters tall and weighs more than two thousand kilograms. If there is something inside, its weight must be considerable.

Shi Daohan really wanted to split it open to see what was going on, but in the end he restrained himself from the impulse.

These are stones provided by the Celestial Academy; she can't just do whatever she wants with them.

Afterwards, she used her double pupils to examine the smallest piece of stone closely. Suddenly, a blood-red color appeared in her eyes, as if they were covered by a red cloth.

Shi Daohan quickly averted his gaze, a chill running through him: "Is that blood?"

She only saw a blood-red color, which looked very eerie, and she didn't know if it was blood.

"This double pupil has not yet fully recovered its vitality, and the amount I can activate is too limited."

Shi Daohan felt utterly helpless. If his double pupils had fully recovered their vitality, they would surely be able to see through illusions and discern the true nature of things.

"These nine stones must have come from near the Immortal Spirit Ancient Domain. There must be something extraordinary inside them. The Heavenly Immortal Academy is really bold, daring to parade around our Desolate State with nine such stones." Not far away, Sikong Qing whispered to the bandits beside him.

"If they want to know what's inside the stone, why not just cut it open? Why go through all this trouble? What are they up to?"

"The fact that they did this further proves that these nine stones are not simple. The reason they dare not cut them open must be because they are worried about something."

The group of bandits, all with a fierce demeanor and considerable knowledge, were whispering amongst themselves.

"I think they're probably using the stone to find someone," one of the bandits said.

"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?" Sikong Qing pressed.

Have you ever heard of a Dragon Finder?

"Knowing geography, understanding feng shui, and finding dragon veins and gold are the basic skills that every cultivator needs to master. However, the Dragon Vein Master is the pinnacle of this field. It is a title, not referring to any one person."

"That's right. It is said that a long time ago, a dragon-seeking master came out of the mountains and entered the world, causing great losses to the major powers. However, he had a close relationship with the Celestial Academy and left behind many classic works."

"I think the Celestial Academy is probably facing some difficulties and wants to find the descendants of the Dragon-Seeking Celestial Master."

The descendants of these notorious thieves clearly knew many untold secrets.

"The Dragon Seekers, I've heard those old guys say before that they spend their whole lives deep underground, seizing the wonders of heaven and earth and revealing their secrets. Almost none of them have a good end in their later years. How could they have any descendants?" Sikong Qing muttered to himself, stroking his chin.

"That's hard to say. Maybe a few descendants really did escape divine retribution and survive?"

"Thinking about it carefully, the Celestial Saintess has already traveled almost halfway around the desolate state with these nine stones. She may have really encountered a thorny problem and is eager to seek the help of the Dragon-Seeking Celestial Master."

"To make even the Celestial Immortal Academy, one of the Ten Great Mystic Sects, feel troubled, I'm really curious what secrets those nine stones hold."

Listening to their conversation, Shi Daohan had many thoughts, but she didn't stay there for long.

Those nine stones were indeed very special. As for what they contained, it didn't matter much to her. She just wanted to improve her strength as soon as possible and didn't want to get involved in unnecessary trouble.

As soon as she left the Tianxian Stone Gambling Shop, she noticed that someone was following her.

"Since you're all determined to die, then don't blame me." Shi Daohan sneered, and after leaving the ancient city, she headed straight for the wilderness.

Once they reached the no-man's land, the people from Cangyu Residence behind them had no more scruples and all chased after them, each one sneering repeatedly.

The man in blue also chased after them. He knew that the sealed insect spirit stone that Shi Daohan had cut out at Ronghui Stone Gambling Shop was of great value. If it were auctioned, it would fetch a price of at least tens of thousands of yuan. This made him want to kill Shi Daohan and steal the treasure.

"Keep running! Why did you stop?" A group of people caught up and surrounded them.

"Weren't you very arrogant back at the Celestial Stone Gambling Shop? Now show us how arrogant you can be." A group of people approached with sneers.

"What are you trying to do?" Shi Daohan scanned them.

"You lowly wretch, you don't even realize you're about to die!"

"You dare to accept my spirit stones?" With a cold snort, Lin Hong followed up, unfolding his folding fan with a "snap" and sneering, "A lowly commoner should act like a lowly commoner. How laughable that you dare to dream of soaring to the sky."

"You keep calling yourself a lowly commoner, what makes you so noble?" Shi Daohan showed no fear on his face.

Lin Hong disdained to argue with her and ordered the servants, "Be careful not to kill her all at once. Break her bones one by one, and then skin her alive. I want her to die in endless agony."

"What a cruel method! But I'm afraid you don't have the ability to do it."

Before he could finish speaking, Shi Daohan had already made his move. With a slap, all the people who had rushed forward let out a shrill scream as they were sent flying like straws in the wind, their bones broken and tendons snapped.

"You!" Lin Hong's pupils contracted sharply. These were all Foundation Establishment cultivators, but they were so easily defeated in front of Shi Daohan. This made him realize that something was wrong, and he turned to run away.

Shi Daohan flicked his finger and unleashed a sword beam, emanating a terrifying killing intent.

"puff"

Lin Hong, who had just soared into the sky, had not escaped far before the dazzling sword light pierced his head, causing him to explode into a cloud of blood mist in mid-air, without even being able to utter a scream.

As for the man in blue, upon realizing something was wrong, he immediately fled dozens of miles away, his figure flashing like a shadow.

With a single step, Shi Daohan shrank the distance and instantly arrived beside the man in blue.

"Where are you going, brother?" She asked with an innocent smile. "Didn't you say I stole your brother's spirit stones and wanted them back? Why are you running away now?"

"Hehe, fellow Daoist is joking. Those spirit stones are yours for the taking, I won't ask for them back," the man in blue said with a smile.

"Give it away? I won it, how can you say it's a gift?" Shi Daohan's voice suddenly turned cold.

Knowing that this matter was unlikely to end well, the man in blue acted decisively. He unleashed his divine power and summoned four magical weapons to slash at Shi Daohan.

"Ding ding ding"

Shi Daohan tapped his fingers lightly on each of the four spiritual weapons, and a crisp cracking sound came from them. The four spiritual weapons shattered like glass or ceramic, extremely fragile.

"How is this possible?!" The man in blue was shocked. Those were four Xuanling seventh-grade spiritual weapons, and they were so easily broken and shattered?

He was utterly shocked. Just what level of cultivator was this person in front of him?

She felt a chill run through her body, and the aura emanating from Shi Daohan made her tremble uncontrollably.

"You...please let me go!" The man in blue knelt down and begged for mercy. Knowing that he was no match for Shi Daohan, he no longer had the indifference and composure he had before.

"You only dared to chase me down because I was dressed plainly and looked like someone you could bully, right? Why are you begging for mercy now?"

Shi Daohan looked down at him, saying, "If I weren't stronger than you, and I were just a low-level cultivator, I'd probably be tortured to death by now, wouldn't I? Why do you think I'd let someone who wanted to skin me alive go?"

"I'll give you a dignified death. Fight with all your might and die a bloody death." Shi Daohan stood with his hands behind his back, his face showing little emotion.

"Kill!" The man in blue knew that the other party would not let him go. His eyes were filled with ferocity, and his blood was burning. He wanted to self-destruct his Dao foundation and perish together with the handsome young man in front of him.

However, he ultimately underestimated Shi Daohan's realm and strength. Faced with the powerful energy impact of his Dao foundation collapsing, the latter did not make any extra movements, but simply raised his hand and covered down with a palm.

"Bang"

All energy fluctuations were enveloped and shrouded by Shi Daohan's large handprint, unable to stir up the slightest disturbance.

The man in blue was filled with despair. Faced with such an absolute disparity in strength, his idea of ​​mutual destruction seemed utterly ridiculous and ignorant.

His figure dissipated, turning into ashes, leaving nothing behind.

After erasing all traces of the place, Shi Daohan disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Before returning to China, she forcibly severed the connection and communication between herself and her original body.

She was merely a spiritual body, destined to be merged with the main body in the end, but she was unwilling to accept such a fate. She did not want to be transformed into a Dao fruit and merged with the main body; she wanted a life that might belong to her.

So she returned to China, severing the connection and communication with her original body, in order to increase her strength as much as possible on this ancient and mysterious land.

"I was created by you, but my fate should not be determined by you. Since you want me as your Dao fruit, then when my realm and strength surpass yours, why can't you become my Dao fruit as well?"

Shi Daohan thought to herself that one day she would not only be able to merge with the other spiritual bodies, but also be able to devour the main body.

The desolate land was uninhabited for thousands of miles, and Shi Daohan flew for three days before he finally saw a human figure.

It was a group of people riding camels, led by an elderly man in his sixties, followed by a dozen or so middle-aged men.

The group of people were all at the Foundation Establishment stage, and they were holding compasses as if they were searching for something.

Shi Daohan remained on the clouds, guessing that they were probably looking for spirit mines and wanted to see if the locals of this desolate state had any useful folk methods to find the spirit veins.

"Alas, Luhe Village is really going too far. They want us to hand over ten catties of spirit stones within three days. Where are we supposed to find that?"

"We have to search even if we can't find them. The strongest person in our village is only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. How can we possibly fight those bandits?"

"This is already the second day, and we've only found two jin of spirit stones so far. Time is really running out."

The group all looked worried. A middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and large eyes asked the old man at the front of the group, "Old village chief, you've been circling this stone mountain for so long, have you found anything?" (End of this chapter)
