Chapter 739 – A Chance
Chapter 739 – A Chance
Xu Chuniang was a bit surprised, her interactions with the mountain chief were limited to that one time back then.
Unexpectedly, the mountain chief would have high hopes for her.
She excused herself, “Although I’ve been in the Heavenly God Academy for thirty-six years, I don’t think I’ve made any outstanding contributions to the academy, instead, I’ve relied on the academy for a lot of things, so how can I be gifted by the mountain chief for no reason?”
“Scholar Xu shone brightly in the actual combat exercises, and should have been reused by the academy, but the situation has forced you to do so, and in turn, you have suffered a lot of aggravation.
This chance is a little compensation from the mountain chief to you, I hope that Academic Officer Xu won’t excuse himself, after all, strength is the foundation of everything.”
Saying that, Zeng Lao took out a purple-colored bamboo, and a rusty copper coin.
Looking at the color, the Purple Monarch Bamboo that Zeng Lao had taken out was much better than the one she had gotten, and the grade was as high as a Houtian Supreme Treasure.
Seeing the Purple Monarch Bamboo, the Skywatcher’s eyes lit up.
“You can ahaha, a Purple Monarch Bamboo of such a high grade is a rare sight. Xu girl, what is sent to the door, don’t want it for nothing, and he’s right, strength is the root of everything!”
“This Purple Monarch Bamboo, and this key that opens the Heavenly Heart Pavilion, will be gifted to Academician Xu, as for how far Academician Xu can go in the Heavenly Heart Pavilion, it’s up to your destiny.”
“The key to the Heavenly Heart Pavilion, good stuff wahaha, back in the day I wanted to go around in the Heavenly Heart Pavilion, I suffered from not having the key and was blocked out by those formations, this time I can finally get what I want!”
Staring at the rusty copper coin, Skywatcher had an excited look on his face.
“It is said that in the Heavenly Heart Pavilion, there is the Sea of Learning, the Mountain of Books, and the House of Gold, which can enhance one’s aura, divine sense, and physical body respectively… The Mountain Head of the Heavenly God Academy, he even took out the key to the Heavenly Heart Pavilion… that’s enough of a significance!
There is endless aura in the Sea of Learning, which is just right for you to remodel your Purple Mansion!”
In the end, Xu Chuniang received the Purple Jun Bamboo and the copper coins under the expectant eyes of the Skywatcher, and picked up the black insignia on the stone slab again, wearing it on her lapel.
Elder Zeng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with a flick of his beard, “When you leave the academy, we’ll pronounce a verdict to the public, saying that Scholar Xu is out on a study tour, and that his return date is undetermined.”
“Many thanks, Elder Zeng.”
“There’s no need to thank me, all of this was arranged by the mountain chief, when you come out from the Heavenly Heart Pavilion, go and thank the mountain chief personally.”
Xu Chuniang nodded slightly and bid farewell to Elder Zeng.
Just after leaving Elder Zeng’s small courtyard, Xu Chuniang felt the gaze of dozens of eyes, precisely the fifty scholars who were under her command not long ago.
Seeing her come out, the fifty scholars, led by Yi Lan and Ma Tianfeng, bowed in unison.
“We have come here specifically to thank Schoolmaster Xu for his gift of guidance! If it wasn’t for the set of formations that School Master Xu passed down, I’m afraid that we wouldn’t have been able to successfully complete our studies!”
“There’s no need to be polite, I’m just doing my fair share.”
“For School Master Xu, it’s just a duty, but for us, it’s a matter of whether or not we can successfully complete our studies.”
“Without School Master Xu’s guidance, I would have wasted at least tens of years in the academy, and with the war situation on the front line being so tight these years, I should leave the academy as soon as possible to serve the human race!”
Meeting the tender eyes of these schoolchildren, Xu Chuniang had mixed feelings, once they left the Heavenly God Academy, they would be heading to the battlefield.
Of these fifty people, I wonder how many of them, would be able to survive the battlefield?
In order to satisfy the selfish desires of those Mahayana Venerable Masters, countless fresh lives, before they had the chance to thrive, faced a withering end.
One day, if her cultivation was heavenly, she would definitely rewrite the situation of the human race!
Xu Chuniang calmed her mind and looked towards the group of students, “The killing opportunities on the battlefield are not as stable as the academy, in the future when you go to the battlefield, remember to do your best in everything and don’t try to be strong.”
“I honor the teachings of the academy officials!”
Xu Chuniang nodded her head slightly, her gaze swept over the crowd of students, and she activated the formation talisman on her badge, opening the spatial passageway that led to the Heavenly Heart Pavilion.
With a single step, she stepped into the spatial channel, her figure disappearing in the eyes of the crowd of scholars, and in the next moment, she arrived in front of the Tianxin Pavilion. Wang Tianhao was excited, “It is said that the sea of learning in the Heavenly Heart Pavilion has an inexhaustible supply of aura, I really want to go inside and take a bath!”
“You don’t have a form, going to the Sea of Learning would just be in vain.”
“So what, can’t you just get over the dryness?”
Skywatch Roar snorted lightly, “The Sea of Learning won’t work, that Book Mountain can condense divine sense, it’s just right for me to go! You have to be competitive, don’t even fail to cross the sea of learning, wasting this great opportunity.”
“Whether or not I can get through, I’ll have to try before I know.”
Xu Chuniang smiled faintly, took out the rust-stained copper coin, and shoved it into the lock eye on the gate of Tianxin Pavilion.
The coin slid into the locking eye with a tight fit, only to hear a “squeak”, the gate of Tianxin Pavilion slowly opened, and an ancient and solemn atmosphere came to the surface.
Under the influence of this aura, Xu Chuniang unconsciously slowed down her movements, and her expression became solemn.
This Heavenly Heart Pavilion, too, had been forged by the Seven Venerable Ones of that year, with their own hands.
Regardless of whether the seven great venerable masters came out of nowhere back then, whether it was a ploy or a coincidence, it was unquestionable that they had pacified the warring human races and founded the Heavenly Divine Academy.
Passing through the long passageway, Xu Chuniang arrived in front of a golden ocean.
This golden sea was none other than the Sea of Learning in the Heavenly Heart Pavilion.
The Sea of Learning contained a huge amount of spiritual qi, and once a cultivator stepped into the Sea of Learning, he would be subjected to the repulsive force from the Sea of Learning.
The longer one stayed in the sea of learning and the farther one traveled, the more repulsive force one would receive.
Only the Laws could dissolve the repulsive force in the Sea of Learning.
Therefore, the deeper the person who crossed the sea comprehended the Laws, the greater the chance of crossing the Sea of Learning.
Xu Chuniang took one step into the Sea of Learning, and auras from all directions surged madly towards her.
At the same time, a trace of unnoticeable repulsive force surged into her body along with the aura.
“What a pure aura!”
Xu Chuniang took a deep breath, her eyes revealing a strange aura, this Sea of Learning truly lived up to its name.
Skywatcher reminded, “Hurry up and take out all of the two Purple Monarch Bamboos, and while you’re at it, repair your Violet Mansion!”
Xu Chuniang complied and took out the two Purple Monarch Bamboos, following the guidance of Skywatcher, calcining the Purple Monarch Bamboos with the Meteoric Heart Flame.
The Meteoric Heart Flame was only a rank six lower grade, while these two Purple Monarch Bamboos, respectively, were a Houtian Supreme Treasure and a Houtian Spiritual Treasure, with grades as high as rank seven upper grade and rank seven lower grade.
After a full half day of calcination, the Purple Monarch Bamboo remained the same as before, not condensing half a drop of Purple Monarch Bamboo Liquid.
Skywatcher was speechless for a while and said in disgust, “Alright, put away that fire of yours and replace it with me.”
Xu Chuniang touched her nose in embarrassment and put away the Meteoric Heart Flame.
Skywatcher released a small cluster of black flame, carefully calcining the Zijun Bamboo.
Soon, on the surface of the Purple Monarch Bamboo, a fine layer of water droplets oozed out, precisely the Purple Monarch Bamboo Liquid.
Seeing this, Xu Chuniang hurriedly took out the porcelain bottle she had prepared long ago and carefully picked it up.
