Perfect Double Agent
Page 199
This was originally a good thing, but the people in Jiutian are not united, and many people do not want to see this situation.
"It's alright, it won't affect my ability to lead you to achieve great things." Bai Ye patted the red-haired man on the shoulder.
Afterwards, he asked Pudu to summon Taurus and the Witch. This trip had yielded an astonishing amount of gains, and he needed to meditate for a while to further explore the power of this stage.
He took the path of using his own body as a seed. The Immortal Academy ruined many heroes because of this path, and later this path was banned in the Immortal Academy. The three elders even thought that he had fused with the reincarnation seed.
The mountaintop was silent. By the small lake, the Five Immortals Tree remained, though a few of its fruits were missing. Beside it, a tiny sapling, barely an inch tall, radiated a dazzling power of the world.
Before him stood a myriad-path tree, a seed radiating divine light, and a ceramic jar.
Besides the Five Elements Immortal Seeds, the Myriad Paths Tree and the Five Demons Sealing Heaven Seeds are only a little time away from perfection. These seeds have great research value. They represent an invincible path and are true Immortal King seeds. After fusion, they may become Immortal Kings or even True Immortals.
"Boss, Big Sister isn't here. She went to the Heavenly God Academy." Taurus and Pu Du arrived and handed Bai Ye a beast bone engraved with runes of the Great Dao of Lightning.
"Thunder Emperor's Treasure Technique? Where did she get it from?" Bai Ye asked in surprise.
"It seems to have been obtained in the Five Elements Continent. Yesterday, she accompanied Yinling to visit an elder. I heard that it was built on an undeveloped immortal abode. The two of them probably wanted to try their luck."
"They went to the Celestial Academy?"
Chapter 327 Visiting Meng Tianzheng
Like the North Sea, the Star Sea is located in the Boundless Heaven. However, unlike the North Sea, this is a boundless star sea on land.
Legend has it that in a certain era, a powerful being once severed the sky with a single sword, causing countless stars to fall and submerge this region, turning the vast plains into mountains.
If it weren't for the existence of several immortal abodes underground, protected by numerous peerless formations, this area would have been destroyed long ago.
Over the long years, the countless large stars that once protruded from the bare earth have long since transformed into magnificent mountain ranges, teeming with life and radiating a misty aura. The only regrettable thing is that those few immortal abodes have also been submerged by the endless stars, and no one has been able to develop them to this day.
Several major forces once fought fiercely here, vying for control, but in the end, none of them gained an advantage. Finally, the various important figures negotiated and decided that this place would become the location of the Heavenly God Academy.
Today, the Heavenly God Academy is located in the best spot deep within the Starry Sea, and its construction has been successfully completed.
On this day, a hazy figure descended from the sky and landed deep within this sea of stars.
This is a place blessed by the heavens, with surging purple qi and auspicious light. The mountains are majestic and undulating, like tens of thousands of true dragons lying dormant, or like piles of imperial stars. It is full of spiritual energy and dense with divine matter. It is clear at a glance that it is a rare pure land in the human world.
At a glance, the medicinal herbs are like starlight, and the sacred herbs grow everywhere. Occasionally, you can even see one divine herb after another running through the mountains.
At the same time, there are also a great many living beings here, with countless handsome men and fairies, many of whom are famous talents or scions of various families.
The establishment of the Celestial Academy has long been a legend in the Nine Heavens. It is said that the strongest heroes from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were gathered into one academy, and they were jointly trained by some reclusive old monsters. The resources, immortal scriptures, and precious techniques were all top-notch, and they possessed unparalleled fortune.
Although the academy is not currently open to accept apprentices, some people have still been selected in advance, so some people hope that they can be selected as well.
The man, shrouded in a hazy, ethereal light, remained calm and composed. He wore a robe that seemed to be forged from the myriad paths of the Dao, and the runes and patterns on his body appeared to be naturally formed. At a single glance, many people couldn't help but be mesmerized and want to become lost in his beauty.
Even the old man who had been sitting cross-legged in front of the mountain gate, seemingly petrified, slowly opened his eyes.
"There have been rumors for a long time, but I've never seen you. Have those old guys finally decided to let you out?" The old man smiled, very kindly.
These were the elders, but Bai Ye didn't know that he hadn't brought anyone with him this time. Even the old demon was underground with two immortals, making arrangements for something.
"I just got back last night, and that's why I came so early this morning." Bai Ye smiled and handed over a pot of old wine, which made the old man's smile even wider. He then personally led Bai Ye into the Heavenly God Academy.
This left many men and women outside looking completely bewildered.
It's unimaginable. That old man could very well be a reclusive monster who has lived in seclusion for countless millennia. He wouldn't even glance at them, and even the important figures from several longevity families who came a few days ago treated him with great respect.
However, now he was personally leading a young man inside, showing him the way.
This scene, so simple, is like a picture, deeply imprinted in the minds of many people.
"How about it? My Heavenly God Academy is pretty good, isn't it?"
"It is naturally excellent; such a blessed place is hard to find in the world." Bai Ye looked around and saw rows of magnificent buildings, some perched in the clouds, some nestled against mountains and by water, and some standing in secluded places, waiting for their owners to move in. Every place they stood in was extraordinary, showing that the Heavenly God Academy had put a lot of effort into it.
"Why don't you come too? I'll set up a place for you to coach for a while."
"Senior, you're joking." Bai Ye shook his head.
“You are qualified. Whether it’s your understanding of immortal energy or your cultivation of immortal techniques, you are at the forefront of the younger generation. Those who will be able to enter in the future will all be arrogant and self-important. They need a young person to temper their arrogance.” The old man spoke seriously and was not joking.
In particular, this young man is no ordinary person. He has mastered many immortal techniques, heavenly skills, and the ten fierce arts. He even killed a member of the Jin family who was at the Self-Slaying Realm some time ago. At this age, he is about to catch up with the older generation. What will he be like in the future?
"Senior Meng is fishing inside; you can just go there." The old man led Bai Ye deeper into the academy before leaving.
Faintly visible in the distance is an ordinary thatched hut, devoid of any grand aura or celestial energy, surrounded only by some unconnected muddy ponds.
In front of the house, a tall old man dressed in hemp clothes sat on a large brown rock, holding a bamboo pole. He was fishing with the line drawn into the muddy pond, looking very relaxed and quiet. It was unclear what he was fishing for.
Bai Ye didn't disturb them, and floated down lightly, standing to the side, quietly looking at the muddy pond with a strange expression.
If he remembered correctly, those below were mostly small horned ants.
"Want to go fishing together?" Meng Tianzheng asked, his tone not authoritative, but more like that of an elderly neighbor.
“Okay.” Bai Ye nodded. He always had the Time-Space Book on his right arm, so he wasn’t worried that Meng Tianzheng would notice anything. In fact, the old man didn’t observe him too closely.
The brown stone was large enough for several people to sit together. Bai Ye took out a bloodline fruit and tied it with a branch with a very special medicinal fragrance. He connected them with orderly lines and placed it for a long time. After sensing a crack in the immortal array, he threw it down.
This scene drew the attention of an elderly person nearby, who couldn't help but look on in astonishment, exclaiming, "A branch of the longevity herb?"
"When I first came to Jiutian, I tried to fish for the Nine Nether Beast, but I failed. I think it was because the bait wasn't fragrant enough," Bai Ye joked, taking out two jade boxes as he did so.
One white and one purple, the former given by the Grand Elder, the latter by him. "Congratulations on the successful establishment of the academy, senior. This is a congratulatory gift sent by the Grand Elder."
Meng Tianzheng glanced at it but didn't take it. "He wouldn't be willing to give me the Longevity Fruit. The situation in the Nine Heavens is a bit complicated. The Epochal Tribulation is approaching, and I won't get involved in any struggles. I'm too old to withstand any more turmoil. If you want to bribe me, you've come to the wrong person."
"Actually, I don't like getting involved in all sorts of struggles either..."
But at that moment, Meng Tianzheng's gaze suddenly sharpened, as bright as two magic lamps, "Quickly pull the line, the fish is on the hook!"
Sure enough, Bai Ye also sensed the movement; something seemed to be deliberately tugging at his Order Line.
“What a pity…it’s already run away…” Just as Bai Ye was about to pull it back, Meng Tianzheng shook his head. However, when his eyes, which had not yet completely disappeared, fell on Bai Ye, he suddenly paused.
Although this young man was extremely well hidden and discreet, the way he resonated with the Dao around him was highly unusual.
In fact, that wasn't even a way of resonating with the immortal seed; it was very faint, and most people wouldn't even notice it. But he was different because he had gone the furthest and studied it the most deeply on this path!
Chapter 328 Putting Past Grudges Aside
At this moment, even Meng Tianzheng couldn't help but lose focus.
The old monsters of this era all believed that using one's own body as a seed was a dead end. He was also a hero in his time, but he too failed to succeed. If it weren't for a fortuitous opportunity, he might have already died.
Even the Immortal Academy forbids its disciples from taking this path, encouraging them to focus on cultivating ancient immortal techniques while the Holy Academy cultivates worldly methods. Whether it's a family of immortals or other lineages, everyone tacitly agrees that this is a path that cannot be followed.
However, the fact that this young man was a Void Daoist proves that he survived the most difficult hurdle, overcame the death calamity, and succeeded in using his own body as a seed.
Clearly, even the people from the Immortal Academy hadn't noticed this. If this young man hadn't revealed himself, it would have been very difficult to tell, and it wasn't just because he possessed a secret treasure.
"Senior, what's wrong?" Bai Ye asked, puzzled.
“You… the material of this clothing seems extraordinary. It doesn’t look like it was made later; it seems like it was made naturally.” Meng Tian sat up straight, his eyes fixed straight ahead, and continued fishing, but his beard twitched almost imperceptibly.
"It's considered innate, but if you're a little unlucky..." Bai Ye shook his head, recalling that scene from back then. With the Myriad Dao Diagram and the Execution Platform, it was truly a matter of life and death. Anyone would curse the heavens for being blind. Absolutely, whoever went up there would die. No one could withstand it.
Meng Tianzheng didn't ask any further questions. He looked at the jade box that Bai Ye was still holding in his hand and said softly, "No need for gifts. You can come and chat with this old man more often when you have time. The two courtyards are not far apart."
The fact that a simple-minded old man could say these words to a young man actually reveals a lot.
But Bai Ye wasn't there to bribe Meng Tianzheng.
He put the gift down; since he had already taken it out, there was no reason to take it back. Of course, he didn't go too far; he simply stayed with Meng Tianzheng fishing for a while longer before leaving on his own.
Old Man Horned Ant still has a lingering regret; there's a group of veterans below. You can fish for them occasionally, but not for too long.
Meng Tianzheng watched the departing young man's back out of the corner of his eye, his heart unable to calm down for a long time. He really wanted to ask, and wanted to know how the other party had gotten out of that path, but everyone has their own secrets, especially young prodigies, who do not want them, the seniors, to pry.
Just like, no one wants to be seen through and completely exposed to others.
……
The witch is located in the eastern part of the Celestial Academy. There is a secret artifact connecting them, which the witch usually doesn't hide, so it's not difficult to find her.
From afar, you can see a secluded valley stretching for several miles, where purple bamboo grows in abundance, emitting a faint tea fragrance that floats in the air with a hint of bitterness, instantly refreshing the mind.
"Oh my, it's been so many years. Sister, you've become more and more otherworldly. You live a simple life, drinking tea and drinking water, living alone in a secluded valley, eating and drinking on the path of immortality. You're so detached that I almost didn't recognize you. But you look a lot like you did after we parted ways at Tianyun Mountain."
"What are you trying to say? I don't remember us being this close."
"Sister, don't be angry. What bad intentions could I possibly have? We used to be neighbors, and now we're neighbors again. We're both from the lower realm, so isn't it only right that we help each other out?"
"Little Celestial, one of the six giants of the Immortal Academy, is said to only stab people in the heart. She has a beautiful appearance, but a vixen's heart. I don't want to get stabbed in the back one day."
The two female voices clashed fiercely, neither willing to give an inch. Their verbal sparring was more terrifying than a magical battle, causing a silver-haired woman on the side to look back and forth, glancing left and right.
She had never seen her best friend like this before. She was clearly grinding her teeth and about to bite someone, but she would always manage to say something unexpected in the middle of a conversation that made her old rival, who was usually aloof and unapproachable, raise her eyebrows repeatedly and feel a surge of emotion.
However, when she looked up, she also saw a young man strolling leisurely towards her in the distance.
Yinling nudged the witch, "Your junior brother is here!"
It was faintly visible that the witch's expression changed instantly, a faint smile appearing on her face, her eyebrows exuding charm, her red lips pursed, and her snow-white chin, supported by one hand, turned to reveal a face that could bring ruin to a country.
Even the woman opposite him turned her head, her face unchanged, aloof and ethereal, holy and noble, her beauty unreal.
"Long time no see," Bai Ye greeted Yue Chan.
“That’s quite a long time indeed.” The witch was calculating seriously. “It should be four or five years now. We’ve all grown up, but you, junior brother, you can still recognize me at a glance.”
“Yuechan looked exactly the same back then, so she hasn’t changed much,” Bai Ye said with a smile.
"If you dare bring up that incident from back then, I'll make you pay!" Yuechan was pouring tea for Baiye, but in reality, she was sending a warning through her voice.
Strangely, even though they had just met not long ago, they were now acting as if it were their first meeting in several years. Their tacit understanding was truly remarkable.
“Junior brother, look how thin Yuechan has become. Her waist is so slender. We came from the same place, so we should take care of her. Don’t we still have some divine medicine at home? Send her some tomorrow.” The witch was very generous, her eyes full of cunning.
Bai Ye nodded and asked, "Aren't you two here to visit your elders?"
Yin Ling picked up the conversation and laughed, "Yes, Xiao Tianxian and I will be going to the Flying Immortal Land in the lower realm with one of my clan's great-uncles and that senior. There seems to be a trace of an immortal abode there. Don't worry, we'll call Wu Tai and Xiao Peng along. I definitely won't let Xiao Tianxian take any risks."
white night:"……"
"Adventure is not necessarily a bad thing; it is beneficial for growth. It just so happens that I will be going to the Xu family in a few days to replace the elder."
"Imperial Emperor Xu's birthday? Are you going too, sister?" Suddenly, the witch looked at Yuechan, who had been calm all along.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, I don't plan to go." Yuechan pursed her lips, but she took out a two-inch-long purple dragon that was sleeping with its eyes closed from her sleeve. "Take it with you if you go to the Immortal Abode. It might be helpful to you. Remember to return it to me after you're done."
