Qin Wentian could sense the feeling of amicability from Divine Sound. He didn’t reject it and smiled, “Wentian pays my respects to Senior Divine Sound.”
“Good. Junior brother Qin. On the other side of this peak, there’s an empty courtyard. Why don’t you stay there and become my neighbour? I heard that you have brought plenty of friends and family with you on this trip. Do you want them to enter the sacred academy for cultivation?” The Divine Sound World Overlord asked.
“I did think of this. Among them, there are some with very high talents.” Qin Wentian didn’t conceal anything. “Naturally, I will listen to the sacred academy’s will. Temporarily, I’ve arranged for them to stay in the Daoask Lodge. If the sacred academy isn’t willing to accept them, they would temporarily remain in Daoask City. It’s also more convenient for me to meet with them if I want to.”
“Mhm, I will send some people to the Daoask Lodge to test their talent. If they pass the test, they can enter the sacred academy to cultivate too. It’s just that it’s impossible for them to also have a heavenly deity as their teacher.” Divine Sound spoke.
“That’s natural.” Qin Wentian nodded. How would he be so unaware of the good intentions of others? Naturally, those who he felt were more outstanding in his group, also had the guidance of heavenly deities although they were merely ancient wisps of wills that had survived. As for him, he would be able to meet with a real heavenly deity as the heavenly deity transmitted dao to him.
“It’s impossible for heavenly deities to guide you at every moment. They would only transmit their daos occasionally. You should be able to understand this, right?” Divine Sound spoke again. Qin Wentian naturally understood. Heavenly deities also needed to cultivate, they also aspired to grow stronger, wanting to reach that unparalleled level as a godking. How would they be so free to use all their time to teach juniors?
“Hence, only once every three months would the heavenly deities give a dao lecture.”
“So frequent?” Qin Wentian felt a little taken aback.
“Haha.” Divine Sound laughed, he knew that Qin Wentian must have misunderstood. He smiled, “Although it is impossible for heavenly deities to transmit their knowledge of the Great Dao at every moment, but Wentian, do you think that it’s their true bodies transmitting the dao here?”
Qin Wentian started, but he soon laughed. That’s right, how could heavenly deities be so free? Why would their real self need to be in the sacred academy to transmit the dao? The true bodies of heavenly deities would surely roam the world to seek the true meaning of the heavenly daos, pursuing the supreme point of cultivation. Just leaving behind a strand of their immortal sense here would already be extraordinary enough, the projection formed from their immortal sense could naturally transmit their understanding of the daos.
“Naturally, other than heavenly deities transmitting the daos, there are still plenty of secret realms in the sacred academy where you can cultivate in. You can enter them freely, just try not to disturb the cultivation of others. In the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy, there’s nothing forbidden. In fact, sparring against each other is allowed as conflicts would often happen within the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy. Those supreme geniuses here are all filled with pride and arrogance. Spars are permitted but one has to stop before seriously injuring the other one. Friendly competitions would only serve to stimulate the battle spirit of the students here.”
Divine Sound smiled and glanced at Qin Wentian, as though his words were filled with a deep meaning. Qin Wentian’s fame has shaken the Mystic Region and now that he has also become a ranker on the Heavenly Dao Ranking and was also in the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy, many people might be unconvinced and seek him out for a fight. Qin Wentian need not dream about having peaceful times in the academy.
The other world overlords at the side also laughed. In truth, when Qin Wentian entered the sacred academy earlier, news was already swiftly circulated out. Many extraordinary world overlords in the academy already knew about this. Not only was the Qingcheng Realmlord going to cultivate in the sacred academy, he was also going to be assigned a heavenly deity as a teacher. Also, his name was already on the Heavenly Dao Rankings.
“Divine Sound, I heard that a new dao seeker just came to our Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy? This person is now extremely famous and is also a ranker on the Heavenly Dao Rankings. Is this him?” At this moment, a voice rang out in the air. However, the person who spoke seemed to be in a palace situated extremely far away.
“That’s right. Junior brother Qin’s talent is supreme and I admire him very much. Hence, I gave him the recommendation to join the sacred academy.” Divine Sound laughed.
“Haha, he would soon be in for a lot of trouble. Those battle fanatics would surely hound his door everyday.” That person laughed. “Especially so for those other rankers on the Heavenly Dao Rankings.”
The eyes of the Divine Sound World Overlord flashed with light as he thought of a person. This person wasn’t from the Mystic Region but was from the other regions instead. He intentionally claimed that he was here to seek the dao but other than doing so, he had another purpose. He wanted to spar with the other famous world overlords in the Mystic Region. Many famous world overlords in the sacred academy have been challenged before. Out of the ten rankers on the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy, he has also fought with three before.
Now that Qin Wentian has entered the rankings and was also in the sacred academy, that person would surely seek him out for a battle.
“Also, this young man was inducted by you into the sacred academy. Things would be even more troublesome for him.” That person laughed. Clearly, his status was also extraordinary. If not, it was impossible for him to speak so casually to the Divine Sound World Overlord.
Qin Wentian had a strange look on his face as he stared at the Divine Sound World Overlord, his expression was filled with curiosity.
“It is a battle fanatic that absolutely thirsts for battles. He is from the Desolate Region. Our sacred academy would always accept everyone with talent irrespective of backgrounds. This man is extremely famous in the Desolate Region, both his talent and combat prowess are extremely outstanding, so he was allowed to enter the sacred academy. However, he is simply too arrogant and only has disregard for everyone. Back then when he fought against me, I taught him a lesson.” Divine Sound replied. Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. It was actually someone who came from the Desolate Region?
The Luoshen Clan was also a power from the Desolate Region.
“A world overlord that is actually extremely famous in the Desolate Region? He should be very strong, right?” Qin Wentian spoke.
“He is different from you. He is famous because of the clan he is from, which was a hegemonic power. He is treated as one of the future successors of his clan and is heavily nurtured while also receiving the supreme inheritance from his clan. His combat prowess is truly exceptional and he was born with a dao bone.” Divine Sound replied.
Qin Wentian’s eyes gleamed again. Born naturally with a dao bone? The dao bone in his body was considered an inheritance too, something the godking of time left behind. But this person, actually was born with one naturally.
“Senior brother Divine Sound, I still have a question. Given the majestic reputation of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy, why would it choose to appear in Azure Mystic? The strongest characters there, ancient emperors, were merely at the empyrean realm. To the sacred academy, empyreans should be extremely insignificant, unworthy of a mention, right?” Qin Wentian asked.
“Not only will the sacred academy appear in Azure Mystic, it would also appear in many other immortal realms of the lower worlds. The mission of the sacred academy is to transmit the dao, and as for Azure Mystic, it suffered a calamity and was sealed, isolated from the outside world. People there being able to enter the empyrean realm, was already considered extremely excellent.”
The Divine Sound World Overlord laughed, “Naturally, there is one more reason. In the sacred academy, there’s an extremely powerful world overlord who originated from Azure Mystic. He has given his all to the sacred academy. If there’s a chance to do so, I will introduce the both of you to each other.”
Qin Wentian nodded, so there was such a reason. The Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy did take special care of Azure Mystic.
Although Ancient Azure Mystic was destroyed, the current Azure Mystic has not yet completely disappeared yet. Through countless years, there would definitely be some people who managed to leave there and come to the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. An example was Yi. In that case, how many people were there before Yi?
But it is truly not easy for someone from Azure Mystic’s poor cultivation environment to become a supremely powerful character that has an exceptionally high status in the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy.
Above the world overlord realm was the heavenly deity realm. Out of all the thirty-three immortal realms, how many heavenly deities are there?
“A senior from Azure Mystic. If I have a chance to do so, I must definitely pay him a visit.” Qin Wentian nodded. He had very deep sentiments about Azure Mystic. After all, that was the place he grew up in.
“Oh, there should be a place in the sacred academy which you will be extremely interested in.” The Divine Sound World Overlord laughed.
“Where is that?” Qin Wentian asked.
“The Heavenly Dao Library.” Divine Sound replied. “The Heavenly Dao Library is the largest library in the Mystic Region and has countless treasured dao tomes and ancient recordings of history stored in there. If you wish to read them all, I’m afraid you would need a hundred years of time at the very least.”
There were simply too many major incidents that happened in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms and the other thirty-two immortal realms. Through the accumulation of countless years, this led to the current Heavenly Dao Library. And even now, many people would still compile the major events in the universe and add on to the records.
“This time around in the convention of the myriad realms, the appearance of the Time King and him leaving a sentence behind to his successor, would also be recorded. In the recording, it has information about you and your past deeds.” Divine Sound laughed. Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed with light. However, it wasn’t because the Heavenly Dao Library would record his achievements. In that case, the major incidents that happened to his parents back then, the incidents of the Luoshen Clan, the Qin Clan, and the world-ending battle in Ancient Azure Mystic…would all these have records too?
Also, this would allow him to gain a more thorough understanding of the thirty-three immortal realms and the supreme experts there. At the very least, he had to be familiar with the various peak powers in the different immortal realms.
“Looking at your reaction, you do seem to be extremely interested in it.” Divine Sound laughed.
“Indeed, I’m already feeling impatient and want to rush there now.” Qin Wentian laughed.
“Mhm, there is nothing here for you to do anyway. If you want to go there, allow them to lead you over.” Divine Sound gestured to the world overlords who escorted Qin Wentian here.
“Right.” The world overlords nodded. One of them then spoke, “Brother Qin, let’s head to the Heavenly Dao Library then.”
“Mhm.” Qin Wentian nodded. After he bid farewell to Divine Sound, they left immediately. All the world overlords felt somewhat envious of Qin Wentian, “Brother Qin, you have a heavenly deity as a teacher and Senior Divine Sound as your senior apprentice brother. We are so far below when compared to you.”
“I’m merely lucky. I still have to thank Senior Divine Sound of his recognition of me.” Qin Wentian humbly spoke.
“How can that be called luck? Clearly, you have displayed and proved your talent in the convention. Even if you had chosen the Ziwei Divine Court or other hegemonic powers, you would also be heavily nurtured. In fact, your benefits there might be even better than the benefits the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy can give you.” These world overlords weren’t jealous, they were just casually stating facts. Given Qin Wentian’s talent, they were indeed left behind in his dust.
The Heavenly Dao Library was built in between mountain peaks. It was imposing and majestic and has a total of thirty-three levels. The peak of the library touched the clouds and it also exuded a stately aura.
“Thirty-three levels.” Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed.
“The thirty-three levels here should correspond with the thirty-three immortal realms. Every level should have recordings of the various immortal realms. As for the top-most level, it corresponds to the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms and each level is further divided into different areas.” A world overlord by the side introduced. Qin Wentian nodded. The Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy was really impressive indeed. The largest library in the Mystic Region, it definitely lived up to its reputation!
