Chapter 1827: Entering the Sacred Academy
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Today, the three heavenly deities of the sacred academy gathered their students together. Qin Wentian was a student of Goddess Dugu. He was naturally present as well.
Before the Divine Dao Platform, the most elite world overlord students of the academy were all gathered here today.
Right now, experts of the entire world have gathered. The Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy was going to be facing a storm of unprecedented magnitude. Most probably, the sacred academy’s heavenly deities gathered them because they have some instructions.
“Many of you have cultivated for a very long time in the sacred academy. There are even some who have cultivated for so long that you yourself can’t even remember how long it was. For those who have cultivated the least, they have spent at least several tens of years spent here. Right now, the sacred academy will be facing a crisis, we summoned you all here because we have some instructions.” At this moment, the oldest of the three heavenly deities spoke. His title was the Lifegovern Heavenly Deity.
The students listened quietly. Lifegovern Heavenly Deity continued, “You all should know that Qin Dangtian came to the sacred academy not long ago and challenged the three of us. He is very powerful and his purpose in coming here was for the legendary place in our academy. However, this legendary place isn’t what everyone in the world believes it to be, its entrance was barred to all, no one can enter casually. Also, when the entrance to that legendary place is opened to people of the world, the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms will welcome immense transformations.”
The hearts of many people shuddered. The opening of the legendary place would actually cause huge changes in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms? What sort of place was that exactly?
“Qin Dangtian, Heaven’s Son. Ziwei Divine Court, Heavenly Deity Mountain. All of them are pressuring our Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy. In fact, the other hegemonic powers from the other regions are also supporting them. Their intentions are obvious. Although our academy has many students, including some who originated from the peak powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, our sacred academy has never really cared about their hidden identities at all. But I understand it is almost impossible to conceal this from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.”
The Lifegovern Heavenly Deity stared at everyone, “Hence, the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy would rather gather the supreme geniuses from all great regions. What will come, will come. We might as well take the initiative to face it. Since they wish to compete, our sacred academy might as well expand the scope and allow all the supreme geniuses to compete. In this case, those with unfathomable motives would probably find it harder to achieve their objectives. But of course, we really hoped that the ones who would have some accomplishments in the legendary place, would be none other than you all, our students.”
The hearts of everyone trembled. The Lifegovern Heaven Deity has broken their conceptions about the legendary place and was going to allow everyone to enter. The students were to compete with the various supreme geniuses of the different regions, the sacred academy was placing its hope on them.
“Earlier, I’ve already said that this event that has happened to the sacred academy, wouldn’t be able to be concealed from people of the world. Even if you guys entered, the experts from the various regions would still come by. Qin Dangtian and the others would never give up. This is one of the reasons.” Lifegovern Heavenly Deity continued, “As for a more important reason, is that this was an instruction from the headmaster. Since this is the case, this decision is definitely the correct one. After you guys enter, you all should understand. I’m not very sure as the three of us have never entered the legendary place of the sacred academy before.”
“Even the three heavenly deities didn’t enter?” The hearts of everyone shook.
“The rumors spreading outside are just to create doubt that our Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy is selfish and holding on to the legendary place just for the heavenly deities, even elite students of the sacred academy are forbidden entry. This is simply ridiculous. The truth is that even us, as heavenly deities, have no idea what the legendary place is like.” Goddess Dugu calmly spoke. Some among the students felt shame in their hearts. It was true that when the malicious rumors circulated around the world, some of the students had thoughts about forsaking the academy.
“Dugu, forget it.” Lifegovern Heavenly Deity spoke. “The others can think what they want to, why bother with them? In any case, we gathered you students here today because we have an important thing to inform you all. This is something the headmaster himself has instructed me. He said that after you guys enter the legendary place, no matter what you encounter, remember to guard your heart. Do not forget yourself. If not, you would be embarking on a path of condemnation with no hope of reprieve.”
Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. Seems like the legendary place of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy wasn’t something like what many have imagined. It wasn’t some holy grounds for cultivation where one could attain the dao the moment they entered. The legendary place might be a location filled with immense danger. If not, the headmaster wouldn’t have intentionally asked the Lifegovern Heavenly Deity to remind them.
Everyone nodded their heads, taking note of this. The headmaster’s words would naturally have a deeper meaning behind them. They had to be careful and remember this.
“Okay, you guys can leave for now.” The Lifegovern Heavenly Deity waved his hand in dismissal.
Not long after, news circulated out saying that the reason why the sacred academy gathered the supreme geniuses of the world, was to allow everyone to enter the legendary place. This news caused another earthquake-level commotion. Qin Dangtian said that the sacred academy was selfish, keeping the legendary place for themselves while still under the pretext of transmitting the dao. Since that was the case, the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy seemed to want to use their actions to reply to him. What was transmitting the dao? Since you guys wish to enter, let every supreme genius here in the world enter then.
As expected, after this news was sent out, the various powers gathered at Daoask City all prepared to enter the sacred academy.
Today, in the surroundings of the Heavenly Dao Stairway, there were even more people gathered here compared to the time when Qin Dangtian came. But even so, the path leading directly to the stairway was still clear. No one dared to stand near there as only characters from the hegemonic powers would have the qualifications to ascend the stairway today.
Today, the sacred academy’s students were all gathered at the top of the stairway, watching as the experts from the various regions gathered here.
“They are here.” Someone spoke. From afar, droves of experts could be seen moving in this direction, each from different factions. All of them were extremely powerful and each group was led by a heavenly deity. Other than the heavenly deities, everyone else were world overlords. Those heavenly deities who usually didn’t show up also appeared here today. How could they miss out on this grand event given their identities as heavenly deities?
“The Ziwei Divine Court has arrived.” Countless people glanced at the experts from the Ziwei Divine Court. The person in the lead was a heavenly deity. Those behind him were clad in starry robes, exuding a majestic presence. They were a hegemon in the Mystic Region. With just a stomp of their foot, the entire Mystic Region would tremble.
Qin Wentian stared at the people from the Ziwei Divine Court. He actually saw Yue Changkong as well as Yue Changkong’s martial uncle. He felt somewhat curious, when he exposed Yue Changkong’s identity that time, he thought that the Ziwei Divine Court and the Donghuang Clan most probably wouldn’t spare Yue Changkong. Yue Changkong even dared to fool a heavenly deity, this was truly a great crime.
However, Yue Changkong was actually still in the Ziwei Divine Court and hasn’t died. Also, he stood behind that heavenly deity, clearly showing that his status in the Ziwei Divine Court was still extraordinary.
Yue Changkong also saw Qin Wentian with a single glance. Compared to Qin Wentian’s surprise, he had a look of intense vengeance in his eyes, and his gaze flickered with killing intent. Although he was still alive, the hellish agony and pain he had to experience was something Qin Wentian wouldn’t understand. He wanted Qin Wentian to die.
Staring at the unmasked killing intent in Yue Changkong’s eyes, Qin Wentian felt that this Yue Changkong was more direct compared to the past. However, Yue Changkong who was exposed by him actually hated him so much? How ridiculous was this? Back then he fooled everyone saying that he was the godking of time’s successor and even wanted to kill Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian couldn’t expose him?
“The experts from the Great Devil Divine Palace is here.” A voice suddenly rang out. A group of experts exuding tyrannical devilish aura appeared here. The person in the lead was naturally also a heavenly deity.
After that, the experts from the various locations appeared one after another. These people were all peak characters of the eight great regions of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms and were gathered here today for the sake of entering the legendary place in the sacred academy. From this, one could see how attractive the legendary place was. Qin Wentian silently mused that although the heavenly deities from the sacred academy have never entered the legendary place before, the various hegemonic powers would surely know of some secrets in the legendary place. If not, why would they all gather here today just because of an invitation by the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy?
It was unknown how many experts were here today. Everyone stared at these supreme experts from the peak powers. Qin Wentian glanced at the Luoshen Clan. Luoshen Lei also cast a glance in his direction and revealed a mischievous smile to Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian surveyed the people beside the Luoshen Clan. The Luoshen Clan was led by an old man who was a heavenly deity. Qin Wentian didn’t know if this old man has any relationship with him.
Other than the Luoshen Clan, Qin Wentian also paid attention to the Qin Clan. The heavenly deity leading the Qin Clan was naturally none other than Heaven’s Son Qin Dangtian. Although he was young, his status was transcendent.
The three heavenly deities from the sacred academy walked forward, they came to the stairway and stared at everyone below. “Since everyone could gather here at the sacred academy, this is truly an honor for us.”
“The Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy is renowned throughout the world. It’s a place where the dao is transmitted. This monk and my fellow colleagues have always been impressed. Since the sacred academy has issued an invitation, how can we not show up?” A monk in a kasaya pressed his palms together and spoke humbly. He was a heavenly deity and whether his humble attitude was real or fake, nobody knew.
“The purpose of the sacred academy gathering the supreme geniuses of the world here…is it because of the legendary place? Seems like the sacred academy has thought things through and is planning to allow the geniuses to enter.” A heavenly deity from the Ziwei Divine Court spoke directly, lazy to beat around the bushes.
“Dao friend Ziwei, why so impatient?” Lifegovern Heavenly Deity laughed. “Since everyone cannot wait any more, please enter the sacred academy then.”
These words undoubtedly confirmed the hopes of everyone. The various experts then walked up the Heavenly Dao Stairway and moved towards the sacred academy.
The experts from the sacred academy led them in. These peak characters all respectively entered, walking into the depths of the academy. Outside, countless other experts inclined their heads and stared up. Today, the supreme geniuses of the world gathered here and were preparing to enter the legendary place of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy. What sort of great waves would be created this time around?!
