Chapter 20: Lingyun Pavilion
"What kind of great opportunity is it?" Bai Ran couldn't calm down anymore.
"I'm not entirely sure yet, but I can detect a faint glimmer of light in that beam...... The breath of the emperor. The little demon continued with a straight face: "Only by letting me enter the place where the light source is and perceive it up close, can I determine it." ”
"Emperor's breath!" Bai Ran only felt a rush of blood rushing to his head.
From ancient times to the present, all the things that can be related to the emperor character, which one is not enough to make the world tremble!
Like the Xuanlong War Emperor, the peak powerhouse of the human race a hundred years ago, he was able to defeat the Nine Demons of the Heavenly Desolation with the same strength as his mother's Bai Zhi alone, and there were as many as three heads! Although Bai Ran's strength was uncertain, he could still faintly feel that his mother was definitely an extremely top existence among the demons.
The little demon said that he felt a trace of the emperor's breath from this beam of light, so how could he not be excited.
"In short, if you have a chance to enter the beam of light, if it is really the breath of the emperor..."The little demon spoke slowly, and then said no more.
Bai Ran looked at the beam of light in the distance again, and the turmoil in his heart could not be calmed down for a long time.
Just when he was shocked, Zhong Yang beside him suddenly spoke.
"This bell..."His fat face was full of doubts: "The Lingyun Pavilion Conference is about to start?"
Among the Enlightenment Academy, the Spirit Cloud Pavilion is a place where the academy will only open urgently whenever there is a major event.
When it is about to be opened, the Xuanyang Bell, a treasure in the pavilion, will ring three bells to inform the disciples of the academy to go and participate immediately.
The last time the Xuanyang Bell rang was two years ago, after the unexpected fall of the previous dean, the academy summoned all the disciples to mourn in silence in the Lingyun Pavilion.
Perhaps it was because of the death of the dean last time that the sound of the Xuanyang bell was later passed on by the disciples of the academy, and over time, it actually had the nickname of "death knell", which means that once the bell rang, something must have happened.
"I was able to come out of the inner courtyard this time precisely because of the reason why this Spirit Cloud Pavilion was opened. Nan Li'er said with a slight worry on her small face.
Bai Ran nodded again and again when he heard this, and his heart became more and more affirmative, presumably the Lingyun Pavilion conference held this time must be related to the slaughter of the Zhonghuang Temple last night.
Then he looked up at the giant beam of light that the academy was in, and his mind was full of doubts.
The source of that beam of light is the hidden place in the academy, where the Zhenyuan Pagoda is located.
If it is said that Lingyun Pavilion is the highest hall in the Enlightenment Academy, where deliberations are held. Then this Zhenyuan Pagoda is the most precious existence in the entire Qiling Academy's cultivation place!
Under the ground of the Zhenyuan Pagoda, there is an extremely ancient and powerful spiritual power array, which has the wonderful effect of slowing down the flow of time, allowing junior disciples to get more cultivation time in the Zhenyuan Pagoda, which is really of great use for refining their own strength.
In addition, what is even more mysterious is that this tower is also filled with a treasure that is extremely precious to the Terran monks, the spirit of creation!
These body-making spirits are scattered throughout the Zhenyuan Tower, and their own effects can be described as incomparably mysterious.
Once the Terran monk incorporates the spirit of creation into his body, he has the great use of refining his own flesh and strengthening the meridians of the bones around his body.
Legend has it that there was a disciple more than ten years ago, who was originally extremely mediocre in his qualifications, but it was precisely because of the inclusion of the three body-building spirits in the Zhenyuan Pagoda that the body was extremely strong, and he was directly promoted to the inner courtyard by the academy.
It can temper the body of a mediocre person comparable to the flow of geniuses, which shows the anti-heaven effect of the body-making spirit in this tower!
However, although the effect of this body-making spirit is remarkable, the number is limited, and it takes a lot of time to slowly condense in the tower.
Therefore, this Zhenyuan Pagoda will only be opened once every three years, ensuring that each group of disciples can enter the tower at least once.
Looking at the beams of light connecting heaven and earth in the distance, endless spiritual light burst out from this Zhenyuan Pagoda every time it was opened.
Bai Ran thought quietly in his heart.
When he first entered the Qiling Academy, this Zhenyuan Pagoda had already been opened once, he had no spiritual root at that time, although the Zhenyuan Pagoda was infinitely useful to other disciples, but for Bai Ran at that time, it had no effect at all, although he was shocked by the extraordinary mystery of the Zhenyuan Pagoda, but he did not choose to enter it in the end.
Three years have not yet arrived, why did this Zhenyuan Tower open in advance?
"The Xuanyang bell rings, you and I hurry to the Lingyun Pavilion. Just as Bai Ran was meditating, Nan Li'er spoke.
Bai Ran nodded lightly, and only from this conference can these mysteries be solved now.
The three of them immediately set off and hurried towards the Lingyun Pavilion in the depths of the academy.
When the three of them arrived at the Lingyun Pavilion, they saw a solemn treasure pavilion like a giant temple sitting here, and after entering the pavilion, the Lingyun Pavilion, which was as spectacular as the Colosseum, was already overcrowded.
Bai Ran found a seat, and pulled Nan Li'er and Zhong Yang to sit down.
In the center of these seating clusters, a large circular table sits here.
The twenty seats around the table were already filled with teachers from the academy at this time, and they were obviously still waiting for something, and the conference had not yet begun.
On the seats not far away, nine male and female disciples sat quietly, and the seats next to them were empty except for the seats they were sitting on.
From time to time, the pavilion secretly looked at the nine people, and the expression on their faces was full of awe.
These nine people are the genius disciples in the inner courtyard!
As if sensing the gaze of the disciples, one of the male disciples turned his head and glanced coldly.
This young man is as plump as jade, with long black hair draped over his shoulders, above his ears, two golden lion and tiger pendants are constantly shaking, and his whole body is dressed in a fiery red robe, which is quite sharp and capable.
As Ji Fan's cold eyes swept over, a sound of agitation in the field sounded softly.
"That's Ji Fan, I've heard it, dressed in red, with two ears and a lion and tiger pendant, that's what I'm talking about!" a male disciple shouted.
"Last year, a second-order mid-grade mountain and river python came from outside Heyang City, causing constant nuisance and harming people's lives. At that time, the academy sent this Ji Fan out, and the flame spirit power in one hand was extremely domineering, and the spirit beast was directly killed!" "Beside the male disciple, a female disciple looked excited, her cheeks were full of redness, and her eyes glowed with light when she looked at Ji Fan.
When Ji Fan heard the whispers of these disciples, his long eyebrows froze, obviously extremely disgusted by what these disciples said.
Just when he was about to turn back, he suddenly saw Bai Ran and Nan Li'er in the crowd, and a sharp edge in his eyes suddenly flashed.
"Brother Ji, is that the boy from the outer courtyard that Li'er talks about every day?" Beside Ji Fan, a male disciple in a yellow robe noticed it, and then spoke.
The male disciple's left eye was covered with a hideous scar that was extremely terrifying, he was tall and muscular, his rock-like muscles seemed to be about to explode, and a chill swept through his eyes when he looked at Bai Ran.
Ji Fan didn't answer when he heard this, he thought for a moment, then suddenly got up and walked directly in the direction of Bai Ran, and the yellow-robed disciples on the side also got up and followed when they saw this.
"That Ji Fan, why did he come this way!" Seeing this, a female disciple turned red on her face, and hurriedly lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Ji Fan.
"This Ji Fan is not only strong, but I didn't expect to look like... It's so good-looking, too. The other female disciple was also very shy, secretly looking at Ji Fan's knife-like face.
Just when these female disciples were in a hurry, Ji Fan walked unhurriedly to the Bai Ran seat.
"Brother Ji Fan, you're here. Seeing this, Nan Li'er immediately smiled, her mind was innocent, and she didn't feel the hostility in Ji Fan's expression at all.
"Li'er, you came out of the inner courtyard early this morning and didn't say a word to me, so I don't have to worry. When Ji Fan heard what Nan Li'er said, he immediately felt a coldness on his face, and a smile crossed the corner of his eyes.
"It's hard to get out of the inner courtyard, don't you hurry up and run out to find my little brother. Nan Li'er smiled again, and looked at Bai Ran with a calm face on the side with disgust.
"You are the outer court disciple who saved her back then?" Ji Fan looked at Bai Ran again, and a sneer rose at the corner of his mouth.
Bai Ran saw that Ji Fan's face was not good, and he deliberately pointed out the identity of his disciple in the outer court, and immediately knew that this person was full of hostility towards him.
Bai Ran smiled slightly, and immediately spoke: "It's really lucky to be able to save Miss Nan once when she hasn't practiced. ”
Who knew that when Ji Fan heard this, his face became gloomy.
In the past three years, he has been in the same inner courtyard with Nan Li'er, and he has been in love with this innocent and lovely girl for a long time, but Nan Li'er has always remembered the disciple of the outer courtyard who saved him three years ago, which has always made him quite unwilling to be angry, and sometimes often hates God for being unfair, why didn't he save Nan Li'er's life in the first place.
Hearing Bai Ran's words, Ji Fan was even more jealous in his heart, and a wave of anger rushed to his head.
But at this time, after all, he was in the Lingyun Pavilion Conference, and he couldn't attack directly in front of all the teachers, so he snorted angrily at the moment, and then said: "Li'er, the seats of the disciples in the inner courtyard are all there, come with me." ”
"I..." Nan Li'er was embarrassed now, she looked at Bai Ran, who was looking at her with a smile on her face, looking like she was at her choice.
"I'm still... Let's sit with my little brother. Nan Li'er's face turned red, and she lowered her head.
When Ji Fan heard that Nan Li'er chose Bai Ran, and saw her shyness on her face, he felt a burst of loss and chagrin in his heart.
He has been with Nan Li'er for three years, when has he seen Nan Li'er's shy appearance like a little woman, and when he thinks that this posture is all for this low-strength Bai Ran, his eyes are so angry that he turns black.
"If you insist on doing so, don't hesitate..."Ji Fan held back the annoyance in his heart and said softly.
But the gaze that looked at Bai Ran became more and more cold.
