“Let’s go,” Liu Qingzhu said. He then led the crowd to another area. As they entered deeper inside, the space became even more unfathomable. They would occasionally encounter cultivators from the academy, yet the space above them was completely sealed off.
In the distance, there was a desolate piece of land that was blocked off by mountain ranges. The other side of the mountain range was covered in mist. Ye Futian and the others could faintly hear a sound coming from beyond the mist.
“What is that?” Qin Qing asked as she peered into the mountain range. Through the mist, she could faintly make out an enormous skyscraping tower. It seemed taller than a mountain. On the tower, countless runes were lit up. It was as though divine light was penetrating the mist. The crowd could see the strange phenomenon from afar. A faint but terrifying aura emanated from the direction of the tower. The faint sound was also coming from there.
“That tower is also a treasure,” Liu Qingzhu said. He did not explain more as he continued heading in the direction of the tower.
“That is a restricted area,” Ling He said to Qin Qing in a low voice. He also seemed to be reminding the others. The crowd immediately acted more reserved and did not look in the tower’s direction. Since it was a restricted area, investigating it was naturally not allowed. However, their curiosity grew even stronger. They wanted to know what was inside.
Of course, some of them roughly guessed what was inside.
“Elder brother, there seems to be Demonic Qi coming from there,” Ye Futian said to Li Changsheng over transmitted thoughts. He sensed the Demonic Qi emanating from there. It seemed that the sealing power of the tower could not completely seal off the Qi.
A strange look flashed past Li Changsheng’s eyes. He had also cultivated for many years and had decades of experience. Having lived for so long, he had seen many things and knew more. Some things could only be known by experiencing them firsthand. The rumors that came after could not be easily discerned.
“It might be a Demon Sealing Tower,” Li Changsheng said. “It is used to suppress powerful demons.”
Ye Futian revealed a strange look. Why did Donghua Academy need to suppress a powerful demon?
However, Li Changsheng did not say anymore, so Ye Futian did not ask.
As they continued on their way, they saw another divine tree. The branches of this divine tree extended outwards, forming a huge forest. The terrifying destructive power of the Great Path was actually contained within the forest. This caused Ye Futian to reveal a bizarre look. Trees represented life and rich life force. However, the tree before him seemed to contain the power of destruction.
“It is a Deadwood. It already has a spirit,” said someone. “As we continue forward, this region still has many secret zones. Would all of you be interested in taking a look around?”
Before the crowd managed to respond, a loud sound suddenly came from afar. They turned around and gazed into the distance. Liu Qingzhu released his will and extended it outwards. Very soon, he saw where the commotion had come from.
The others looked towards him. After all, it was not convenient for them to release their wills. They did not know what was happening.
“The cultivators from Desolate God Palace have arrived. They are at the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels at the Path Seeking Stage,” Liu Qingzhu explained. The crowd revealed strange looks. Had the cultivators from Desolate God Palace, who usually kept to themselves, also come to Donghua Academy?
Before this, the academy members did not wait for the cultivators from the Desolate God Palace to arrive. That meant that the former did not know that the other party would come here. Now, they seem to have come uninvited.
“Let’s go take a look,” someone said. They were also very interested in the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels. What did the cultivators from Desolate God Palace want over at the Path Seeking Stage?
“Alright.” Liu Qingzhu nodded his head. The group immediately turned around and headed back at very high speeds.
It wasn’t just them. Many people in the region had heard the commotion. In Donghua Academy, many cultivators were traversing through the air, walking out from the mountain range below or floating down from the floating islands above. They were all headed in the same direction.
Not long after, the cultivators arrived at the Path Seeking Stage. Ancient peaks towering into the clouds above encircled the Path Seeking Stage. Over on one side, a group of cultivators dressed in black robes was standing there. They had frightening auras. The pressure that radiated from them was suffocating.
On the mountain peak across from them stood the cultivators from Donghua Academy.
In between them, above the Path Seeking Stage, two Renhuangs were currently engaged in combat. Their battle was intense.
Liu Qingzhu immediately headed over to where the cultivators from Donghua Academy stood. The other cultivators dashed off in different directions. Ye Futian and the cultivators from the Wangshen Watchtower landed on a mountain peak. The cultivators of Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow chose another, while the cultivators from Ling Xiao Palace in the Donghua Heavens chose a mountain peak beside them.
All of them stood at different locations.
At that moment, the sound of a violent collision could be heard. The matrix surrounding the Path Seeking Stage lit up with brilliant light, blocking off the residue shockwaves of the attacks of the two Renhuangs. The cultivator from Donghua Academy was knocked back. He appeared somewhat pathetic.
They are actually having a Law Battle, the crowd thought as they revealed strange looks on their faces. Liu Qingzhu looked at them and said, “Members of Desolate God Palace, why didn’t you tell us that you were coming? We could have been more hospitable.”
“No need to go to such troubles. It makes no difference if we just come over unannounced. Please forgive the intrusion,” replied an elder of the Desolate God Palace.
“You are all guests who have come from afar. Not long ago, I brought the other guests on a tour around the place. Now that the cultivators from Desolate God Palace have arrived, how can I help you? Feel free to ask me for anything,” Liu Qingzhu said politely.
“You can help me in anything?” said a voice as a cold, indifferent and arrogant aura spread out. The crowd shifted their gazes towards the person who had spoken. It was the top monstrous figure of Desolate God Palace, the next Desolate God—Desolation. He was renowned as the successor of the current Desolate God.
“I cannot promise anything, but I will naturally aid you in any way I can,” replied Liu Qingzhu, not paying heed to Desolation’s tone. Liu Qingzhu smiled casually. He was actually curious as to what request the other party would make.
Desolation stood on the high peak. His black robes fluttered in the wind. His gaze was extremely sharp as it landed on Liu Qingzhu. Even though Liu Qingzhu was a senior figure, Desolation did not respect him. He said, “Today, we have come to the Path Seeking Stage of Donghua Academy to challenge Ning Hua.”
Ning Hua!
Ning Hua was the top monstrous existence in the Donghua Domain, the most prominent figure of this generation of the Donghua Domain. He was the vice chief of Domain Chief’s Manor. He had too many titles and legends associated with him.
Desolation had actually come to Donghua Academy to seek Ning Hua?
However, this was somewhat understandable. Desolation from Desolate God Palace was also a powerful figure. Ordinary cultivators would most likely be unworthy of meeting Desolation.
There were multitudes of cultivators from Donghua Academy. However, only a few of them were qualified to exchange blows with Desolation. He had come specifically for Ning Hua, the vice chief of the Donghua Domain.
Liu Qingzhu smiled and said, “Currently, we do not even know where Ning Hua is cultivating at. If you encounter him, you can challenge him then.”
Liu Qingzhu immediately directed this request to Ning Hua himself.
Of course, the precursor was that the other party had to find Ning Hua.
Whether or not Ning Hua would oblige Desolation’s request, that was up to the former to decide. However, Desolation, who had come from afar, would most likely be left disappointed.
Currently, no one could find Ning Hua unless he himself decided to appear.
Many people in the academy believed that Desolation was somewhat arrogant. Although Desolation was currently also known as one of the four most prominent figures in the Donghua Domain, in their eyes, the difference between him and Ning Hua was still too great. Regardless of the list Ning Hua was ranked in, he was usually at the very top. That included the current four most prominent figures in the Donghua Domain. Ning Hua was still undisputedly the first.
“If that is the case, then today, having come to the holy land of Donghua Academy, I wish to experience the Way of the cultivators of the academy,” Desolation continued. His tone was extremely arrogant and insolent.
The cultivators from Donghua Academy felt that his attitude was extremely unsatisfying. This Desolation was practically presumptuous. Since Ning Hua was not around, he actually wanted to challenge the cultivators of the academy. His Great Path was flawless. Even in the academy, how many disciples could challenge him?
There would most likely only be a few in the entire academy. Desolation’s personality was apparent from this.
The cultivators of Desolate God Palace had come to Donghua Academy to challenge the other cultivators and challenge their egos.
“Alright.”
“If that is the case, we will happily oblige!”
A few Renhuangs answered one after another. They were cultivators from Donghua Academy. They also wanted to see how powerful this monster from Desolate God Palace was.
The atmosphere on the mountain peaks surrounding the Path Seeking Stage immediately became extremely tense!
