Chapter 440: The Five-Year Covenant
After letting go of Huangfu Longchen, Zhu Huang distributed dozens of ancient Shenzhou to the forces that came to support. Regardless of whether they contributed to this turmoil or not, as long as they were willing to come to Huaxia, they dared to confront the powerhouses of the Ten Thousand Souls Star Domain and stand on Huaxia's side. This kind of action alone is worthy of being reciprocated by Huaxia with great courtesy. The ancient Shenzhou came from a powerful family in the sea of stars that specialized in creating transportation tools, although this family has long been destroyed in the ups and downs of the sea, but these ancient boats have survived. In other words, every ancient ship is out of print.
As the host, the three guardians of Huaxia and Zhu Huang used the Shenwu Academy as a place to entertain everyone, and held a banquet to entertain everyone, in order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord. During the banquet, Ling Yu visited the hall master of the Qionghua Palace, and relayed the picture scroll he had obtained in the return to the ruins and the last words of the female cultivator who was lost in the return to the ruins to the hall master. Shi Qiongju and Xia Yao, who were in the Seven Evils of the Ruins, also returned to their own families respectively, drinking and chatting with them, and talking about the past. When they learned that they were rescued by Ling Yu, the patriarch of the Savage Land and the Shaking Light Ancient Star hurriedly thanked Ling Yu for his kindness. The Shenyin clan was originally a force that had the same breath as Huaxia, and this gathering after tens of thousands of years made everyone sigh with emotion and sigh. Back then, the Shenyin clan had a total of six forces, and now the five forces are all present to help, which is also something that the great powers of Huaxia did not expect. Among the six forces, only the Shenlong clan is missing, and when Zhu Huang asked about their whereabouts, the others shook their heads one after another, saying that they did not know. The Shenyin clan was a branch of China before ancient times, and the Shenlong was the totem of China.
The forces stayed in China for half a month, and after half a month, they left Huaxia one after another, and returned to their respective stars. Of course, there are also a small number of races that have negotiated with Zhu Huang and want to stay in Huaxia to practice, but for the sake of long-term consideration, Zhu Huang did not refuse.
When the matter came to an end, Zhu Huang found Ling Yu and told him that although the hostile forces in the Ten Thousand Spirits Star Domain had left Huaxia, the news of the Heavenly Que Key and his identity as a Heavenly Inheritance had already spread in the sea of stars. Zhu Huang reminded him to be careful in everything, because the real mastermind behind the scenes is still eyeing Huaxia, and in order to avoid another tragedy, Zhu Huang and the power beyond the world have more important things to do. They want to find out the details of the black man behind the scenes before he starts again, so they may not be able to interfere in the affairs of Huaxia for the time being.
When Zhu Huang left, he took Mr. with him. The two of them had made an agreement before, and the husband would complete the unfinished mission for his father. As for what he needed to do, Zhu Huang did not say. And before Mr. left, he also told Ling Yu some things, about Ling Yunuo, about Xuan Ling'er, and about the Xuanwu Divine Beast that lived in seclusion in the mountains behind the Mizusawa Divine City. Then, Mr. asked Ling Yu to practice well, and promised to help him bring a letter to his relatives in Lingjiazhuang to reassure them. At the same time, it will also let Zhu Huai secretly guard Lingjiazhuang, so that Ling Yu can rest assured.
Mr. Zhu Huanghe was the last to leave the Shenwu Academy, and before they left, Qi Rui, the guardian of Zhongzhou, and Yan Bei, the guardian of the Western Desert, had already left in advance. Although the people of Wanxing, led by the Boundless God Domain, were shocked by the desolation, and there should be no more trouble in the short term, there are still immortal realms and foreign lands that are ready to move. The unclear intentions of both forces forced the two Guardians to prepare for the worst. The identities of the three Shangguan brothers in the daylight make the whole thing even more confusing, and it is not an overnight thing to find out the truth. Therefore, the two guardians decided to leave first, and while discussing countermeasures with the other two guardians, they used their own methods to probe the reality of the powerhouses of the foreign land and the immortal realm. And when they left, the Shenwu Academy finally returned to calm, ushering in the seemingly calm years.
The Shenwu Academy suffered a lot of losses in this turmoil, countless houses were destroyed, and the ancient trees of the medicine field were also bombarded into powder by the air waves, and the accumulation of thousands of years, or even ten thousand years of hard work, was destroyed in one fell swoop, to say that it was not distressing, it was false. Except for the formation guarding the underground of the Shenwu Academy, the Cangshan Mountains surrounding the Academy have all been flattened, and some have even been broken into rocks and rolled down to the plains outside the Academy. After discussing with several supremes, Jing Yi decided to rebuild Shenwu, so that the Shenwu Academy that had survived the catastrophe would be washed away and reborn.
Since the Shenwu Academy was to be rebuilt, the disciples under the academy had become free laborers, and people practiced in the morning, and in the afternoon, under the command of the academy elders, they cut down wood and moved bricks and stones. After three months of reconstruction, the Shenwu Academy was finally completed with the concerted efforts of everyone. The newly completed Shenwu Academy is no longer surrounded by mountains that cover the sky and the sun, but stands directly in front of the eyes of the world, and people can see the splendid schools located on the top of the mountain dozens of zhang high at the foot of the mountain.
At this time, just after the beginning of spring, although it is February when the yang energy is warming, but Huaxia has a saying of "inverted spring cold" since ancient times, so even if the spring outside the house is bright, people still have to tighten their clothes to resist the biting cold. The rebuilt Shenwu Academy has a more charm than before, and the dormitories of the academy's disciples are the same as before, divided into different areas due to different faculties. Ling Yu, Xiao Hei, and Wu Dao still live with Shi Chen, while Yi Han and Bu Yunzhu still live next door to them. As for the Seven Evils and the Ambush, the academy set aside a separate small courtyard for them. Except for Gu Caiwei, Tang Jinxuan and others who live together, the other seven people all live in the same courtyard. Tang Jinxuan, Duanmu Yuhan and An Luoyan lived with Xuan Ling'er before, but now Xuan Ling'er has turned into a spirit beast and has not yet woken up, and the vacated room was given to Gu Caiwei.
The newly completed disciple's dormitory is no longer a small courtyard of four scattered houses as before, but has become a small two-story building, with the kitchen and living room of the people on the first floor, and the bedroom for the disciples on the second floor. Shenwu Academy is the number one institution in Zhongzhou, and its level of luxury is naturally not comparable to other colleges. In the small courtyard, many vegetables and fruit trees were planted for the disciples to enjoy. People are happy to fend for themselves in the academy. During this time, Ling Yu has been cultivating hard, hoping to break through the state of mind as soon as possible, in this era, his cultivation is far from enough to stand at the forefront of the tide. In addition to normal studies, as long as Ling Yu has free time, he will go to Xiao Ye to learn. Xiao Ye, as a powerhouse in the Immortal Realm, under his supervision, Ling Yu's cultivation is a thousand miles in a day, and I am afraid that the promotion to the state of mind is just around the corner.
During the period of rebuilding the Shenwu Academy, the powerhouses of all sides of the Ten Thousand Spirits Star Domain also returned to their own stars. And in the depths of the sea of stars hundreds of millions of miles away from Huaxia, above a star shining with golden light, the Great Elder knelt down on one knee in front of a man shrouded in golden light, and said respectfully: "My lord, that Huaxia's human guardian cultivation is extremely strong, he can even trigger Huaxia's will and arouse Huaxia's primordial power, even the three Shangguan brothers were left in Huaxia Ancestral Star by him. So, our operation failed this time. ”
Hearing the Great Elder's words, the man nodded and said softly, "The three Shangguan brothers are actually just chess pieces, they are being used by others, and now they are cocooning themselves, but they are to blame. The water in Huaxia is deep, and many terrifying existences in the sea of stars are inextricably linked to Huaxia, and it is simply a fool's dream to rely on three puppets to invade Huaxia. ”
"But...... Since you know that we are destined to return this time, why do you still acquiesce to us uniting the power of the Ten Thousand Souls Star Domain to conquer there?" The Great Elder knew how terrifying the man in front of him who they had become a "god" was, so he had to ask cautiously.
"Because, we can't afford to provoke the people who bewitch the three Shangguan brothers! You go doesn't mean the Boundless God Domain, as long as people of my level don't make a move, it won't be considered a grudge with Huaxia. But if even I go to Huaxia to snatch the opportunity, then the nature of this matter will change. When the time comes, not to mention the Boundless Divine Domain and the Huaxia Ancestral Star, even the entire Star Sea will be affected, be careful to sail the Ten Thousand Year Ship, I can't become a sinner of the Boundless God Domain through the ages!" The man put his hands behind his back and looked at the sea of stars from afar, a gloom loomed between his eyebrows, and he sighed softly.
In the afternoon of this day, just as Ling Yu had lunch and was about to meet with Xiao Hei and the others to find the Seven Evils of Guixu, Jing Yi's voice suddenly came from the nine-story tower: "The disciples of all the faculties have come to Shenwu Terrace to gather, and the Shenwu Academy will inform everyone of something important." ”
Hearing Jing Yi's words, Ling Yu was slightly stunned, the Shenwu Academy is now on the right track, what is the matter with Jing Yi asking everyone to gather at this time? This year is his last year of cultivation in the academy, he wants to make a breakthrough in this year, and he doesn't want to be disturbed by other things.
Just when Ling Yu was puzzled, two cultivators suddenly flashed in from outside the courtyard, they were none other than Ling Yu's friends, Yi Han and Bu Yunzhu. When the two walked into the courtyard, they both had smiles on their faces, it seemed that there should be something good, and this matter should be related to Jing Yi's gathering of everyone.
"Brother Ling, why are you still stunned, hurry up and go to Shenwutai to gather! You are lucky, you are just in time for this five-year appointment, presumably at this year's conference, with your cultivation, you will definitely be able to shine!" Yi Han came to Ling Yu's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile.
Hearing Yi Han's words, Ling Yu was even more puzzled, he didn't understand the meaning of the other party's words, thinking of this, he hugged his fist at Yi Han and asked softly, "Brother Yi, what are you talking about in the five-year covenant? Why have I never heard of it before?"
Seeing Ling Yu's puzzled look, Yi Han and Bu Yunzhu looked at Ling Yu with a look of looking at a monster. The two looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly. Bu Yunzhu took a step forward and said with a smile to Ling Yu, "Brother Ling, do you remember the scene when we first arrived at the Shenwu Academy three years ago? At that time, the Shenwu Academy was crowded with people, and countless people wanted to enter the Shenwu Academy to practice. Although Shenwu Academy is the No. 1 university in Zhongzhou, and there are countless people who come to participate in the assessment every year, do you know why there are so many people who come to worship the academy this year?"
"I don't know, does it depend on the number of years to enter the Shenwu Academy to practice? Also, what is the five-year covenant that Brother Yi said? Looking at your expressions, it seems that this five-year covenant is a great thing. Ling Yu handed the two of them a bowl of hot tea and asked.
"Of course, even if you don't know the five-year covenant, you should always know that there are three world-famous schools in Huaxia, right? They are Shenwu Academy, Wind Thunder Academy, and Fenglin Academy. Although there are several faculties in each of the three colleges, they all have their own characteristics. Shenwu is heavy, the wind and thunder are heavy, and Fenglin is beautiful. The martial arts department of Shenwu Academy is respected in Huaxia, the Taoism department of Fenglei Academy is world-famous, and Fenglin Academy is mostly women, they are not only advanced in cultivation, but also in appearance. Although the three colleges regard each other as rivals, they respect each other. Therefore, the founders of the three colleges made a five-year covenant at the beginning of the establishment of the university. The so-called five-year covenant means that every five years, the three major academies will gather in one of the academies and select several people from among the disciples who are about to graduate to compete. Therefore, the five-year covenant is a grand event that attracts worldwide attention, when the elders of the ancient worlds of various domains, the powerful and respectable, and even some old monsters that have been sleeping for many years will go to watch the battle. Moreover, if he can achieve a ranking in this grand event, then this person will definitely become the target of competition from all sides. Counting the days, this time the five-year covenant will be held this year. And this is also the reason why when we entered the Shenwu Academy, the Shenwu Academy was in full swing. Bu Yunzhu organized his language and explained to Ling Yu and the others.
"You mean, Senior Jing Yi asked us to go to Shenwu Terrace to gather just for this matter?, however, we have only just started school, so it's too early to talk about this matter, right?" Ling Yu nodded and asked the two of them.
"It's not early, the five-year covenant will probably be held around the summer solstice, and we, as disciples who are going to fight, will first have to go through the layers of selection from the academy, and then conduct pre-war training in a unified manner. The pre-war training was supervised by the teachers of various faculties and even the seniors of the Elders' Pavilion, and the training lasted for nearly five months. In this way, when the training camp is over, it is time for us to leave for the academy where the five-year covenant is held. The last time the five-year covenant was held in Shenwu, so this five-year covenant should be hosted by the other two academies, but which academy it is depends on how the principals of these three academies discuss. But no matter what the outcome of their deliberations is, it has nothing to do with us, all we have to do now is to get a place to attend the event. Yi Han also came up and added.
"Isn't it just a mutual competition between the disciples of the academy?How can you see that your expressions seem to be happier than the New Year, even if we get the ranking, what's the benefit?" Ling Yu asked puzzled when he saw Yi Han and the others' overjoyed expressions.
"Benefits, Brother Ling, you really can't afford to be early, you want benefits for everything. You, that simple heart has been polluted by Xiao Hei and Brother Wu Dao! However, if you get a ranking in this event, the benefits you will get are definitely beyond your imagination. Yi Han said jokingly. Then, a look of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he continued to explain to several people: "Although the prize of this five-year covenant is not known yet, in previous events, every time the disciple who won the first place will be rewarded with a blade of the highest grade of the immortal rank. In addition, there are also three immortal-level exercises to be given away, and every cultivator who can win the top ten in the disciples of the three major academies will be rewarded with three Snow Dew Divine Pills. Although this Snow Dew Divine Pill is not as good as the Heavenly Thunder Dew, it is not much different. ”
"Those prizes are really so rich, if you are not a disciple of the Shenwu Academy, can you participate in this grand event? If you can, we will also go, if not, we will go now, we will go to Lao Jingtou now and join the Shenwu Academy!" Hearing Yi Han's words, Xiao Hei and Wu Dao's eyes flashed with a green and faint greedy light. They don't care about being famous in the world at all, they want those elixirs, exercises and blades. Although they had explored the Jedi in the past to find exercises and treasures, if they could get a prize through the grand event this time, it would be much safer than exploring the Jedi.
"This is also what I was about to say, in addition to the disciples of the three major academies who participated in the grand event of the Five-Year Covenant, there were also many holy sons and descendants of hidden and famous families. Therefore, it is more appropriate to say that this five-year covenant is not so much an agreement between the three major academies, but rather a gathering of young heroes from all over the world. But...... Brother Wu Dao, as a teacher of Shenwu Academy, should not be qualified. And Brother Xiao Hei, although he is qualified to participate, it is just that among the cultivators who have participated in the grand event in the past generations, those who can achieve rankings are above the Delusion Realm, so ......" Yi Han looked at Xiao Hei and did not continue.
"I&*%#¥, Yi Han, you look down on people too much! Just say this to you, Xiao Yu, you go, you must come back with a ranking, and defeat those so-called Holy Son heirs for me!" Xiao Hei shook his head at Yi Han arrogantly, and yelled at Ling Yu with a red face.
"If that's really the case, then this event is not bad, at least, it's a good place to test your cultivation! Okay! I'll go!" Hearing Yi Han's words, Ling Yu licked the corners of his mouth, stroked his earlobe with his left hand, and said with a smile in his eyes.
