Chapter 1136: Opening of the Sacred Academy

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

After killing Chu Qingyi, the path the Battle Saint Tribe opened up for him also began to collapse. Tyrannical attacks shot out, but at this instant, Qin Wentian actually didnʼt try to evade. He retracted all defenses and simply stood there, allowing the destructive attacks to rain upon him freely.

A feeling of death overwhelmed him. He felt his life force diminish almost to the point of completely snuffing out. Such a feeling of death was as clear as day, there was nothing illusory about it. In fact, even his consciousness was blurring gradually, to the point of complete dispersion.

In the external world, at the altar Qin Wentian was sitting on, a groan of extreme agony rang out. Qin Wentianʼs body was jolted off the platform as a sense of intense pain assailed his senses. This feeling of being revived from death was extremely clear, his consciousness reverted back and it was only after sometime before he could control his body again. Everything felt like a dream but that experience of true death just felt extremely mystical, he had no way to describe it.

”Hu…” Drawing in a deep breath, Qin Wentian felt extremely uncomfortable. He didnʼt know where the source of this uncomfortable feeling sprang from, in fact, this had something to do with his psyche. In the realm, his entire body was destroyed as he experienced death. Such a feeling was transferred to the original body, causing him to feel exceedingly suppressed and overwhelmed.

Several beautiful figures shuttled over. They were none other than Nanfeng Yunxi, Nanfeng Shengge and Purgatory. It seemed that they had always been in the surroundings.

”You were jolted off the platform,” Nanfeng Yunxi spoke in a low voice. Qin Wentian stood up and nodded to her, ”In there, I encountered some troublesome matters. Jun Mengchen was intentionally targeted by someone. I wonder if I can find the entrance that leads to the other sacred academies.”

”You want to head to other academies?” Nanfeng Shenggeʼs eyes flashed. Right now, they could all be certain that there truly wasnʼt simply a single sacred academy.

”Mhm, the Sky Connecting Realm is merely an illusory world, but those people had actually dealt with Jun Mengchen in the real world. I wonder if thereʼs a way for us to enter the other sacred academies.” Qin Wentian nodded as he spoke. Before this, he was in a dimension that had an ancient castle, allowing him entry to all four academies. But since he had already chosen this place, he didnʼt know if he could still return back to the castle.

”This sacred academy is incomparably vast, akin to an entire world. There are many secret realms here and maybe, a path to the other academies might exist. But right now, that path hasnʼt been discovered yet and since there exists four different academies, they would surely be in entirely different dimensions, it wonʼt be easy to find them.” Nanfeng Shengge analysed. Her words made sense, since the creator of the sacred academies split them into four different places, it surely wouldnʼt be easy to cross from one academy to the next.

Qin Wentianʼs eyes flickered, staring at this current academy. Seems like his best plan was to work hard and raise his own strength. If he did so, if he encountered some troubles in the Sky Connecting Realm, he could still have the strength to deal with it himself.

At this moment, at the altar of another sacred academy, Chu Qingyi was also jolted off her platform. Her eyes were incomparably frosty. Under the protection of so many experts, Qin Wentian actually managed to breakthrough all defenses and slayed her with a single strike. She was a supreme lofty character, the holy maiden from the Snowdrift Sage Hall, yet she couldnʼt even withstand the power of a lower-level opponent. This was simply a grave humiliation.

”Qin..Wen..Tian!” Chu Qingyi spat out the words one by one, the chill in her voice could seep deep into the bones of those who heard it.

”You got killed by my senior brother?” A mocking voice rang out. Chu Qingyi turned her head and saw the two people in charge of guarding Jun Mengchen. These two people were arranged by her and Lei Ba to monitor the situation.

”You can still laugh?” Chu Qingyi stared at Jun Mengchen.

”Why canʼt I? My senior brother already said, if you donʼt release me, he will definitely ensure your reputation is tarnished completely. You better tell these two dogs to scram.” Jun Mengchen sarcastically spoke. ”In fact I was thinking, what did my senior brother do to you exactly? Why are you filled with so much apprehension? However given his personality, he wouldnʼt care less for a woman with a character like yours.”

”Shut up!” Chu Qingyi stood up. A blast of cold qi gushed forth from her, into the body of Jun Mengchen. This caused Jun Mengchenʼs entire body to be covered with frost.

Jun Mengchen shivered from the cold. Because he was injured so badly, it was easy for the cold qi to invade his body. Despite his convulsions, he gritted his teeth and icily spoke, ”Do you want to go all the way? I can play with you.”

”Release him.” After some time, Chu Qingyi coldly commanded. The two behind Jun Mengchen froze but they still nodded their heads, walking away from Jun Mengchen.

”Scram!” Chu Qingyi waved her hand, the cold qi gushing from her slammed into Jun Mengchen again, sending him flying through the air. Jun Mengchen was knocked to the ground, his entire body covered with frostbite yet the resolution in his eyes never weakened. ”Cheap slut. If you have the capabilities, donʼt release me.”

”Do you really think I donʼt dare to kill you?” Chu Qingyi stepped forward upon hearing Jun Mengchenʼs insult.

”You can try.” Jun Mengchenʼs life seemed very tough. He stood up once more, inclining his head and staring at the cold figure before him.

”BOOM!” A violent coldness swept through this entire space. Chu Qingyi moved step-by-step closer to Jun Mengchen but at this very moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside Jun Mengchen, descending from the air. The eyes of this figure were as sharp as swords, able to pierce through the hearts of people. Staring at that terrifying aura of coldness from Chu Qingyi, the sword qi gushing from this person actually formed a barrier of sharpness around Jun Mengchen. The cold qi from Chu Qingyi had no way to penetrate through it.

Jun Mengchen froze. He glanced at the figure beside him for a moment before a smile appeared in his eyes.

This man, was also a disciple from the Heavenly Talisman Realm.

Although disciples from the Heavenly Talisman Realm would usually not interact with each other in public, how could they stand aside when they saw one of their own being shamed and bullied by others?

”You are at the fifth-level of immortal-foundation, yet you are bullying a second-level immortal? Do you even know shame?” That person was none other than one of the Heavenly Talisman Realm members who entered in that ancient mountain in the God Hand Mountain Manor with Qin Wentian. He was extremely powerful, and he stepped into the sacred academy with the identity of someone from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. Hence, even if he stepped out to help Jun Mengchen, no one would question anything.

”Who the hell are you?” Chu Qingyi stared at this man as she asked.

”You donʼt need to know. For this matter, you have to give me a satisfactory answer.” That person coldly spoke, his eyes boring into Chu Qingyi.

”Iʼm the holy maiden of the Snowdrift Sacred Hall. Why must I answer to you?” Chu Qingyi replied in a domineering tone.

”This woman was defeated by senior brother Qin in the Sky Connecting Realm and wanted revenge. She seduced some other men to act on her behalf, capturing me and venting her anger on me, wanting to force out the secret art of establishing a saint-grade immortal foundation. They even forcibly brought me into the Sky Connecting Realm to threaten senior brother Qin.” Jun Mengchen coldly stated.

”The Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy was originally already a place where the peak geniuses would compete and contend with each other. After entering the Sky Connecting Realm, you implicated an innocent simply because you were defeated by someone? Are you really that shameless?” That man from the Heavenly Talisman Realm coldly spoke. Stepping out, a fearsome sword vortex manifested, enveloping this entire space. Chu Qingyi instantly froze when she saw this scene, she could feel the sharpness of these swords biting into her skin. It felt like with just a single thought from that opponent, she would die with these millions of swords piercing through her.

”You really want to act against me?” Chu Qingyiʼs expression was like frost.

”Usually, I donʼt like to bully cultivators with lower cultivation bases. But since you were the one who refused to follow the rules first, why do I still need to be polite with the likes of you?” As the sound of his voice faded, that person abruptly stepped forth, piercing out with his sword finger, generating a beam of light. Chu Qingyi wanted to retreat but she had no way to make up for the difference in strength due to their cultivation levels. This was exactly the same feeling of despair Jun Mengchen felt when Lei Ba fought against him.

The sword finger landed on Chu Qingyi, the impact flinging her through the air as she slammed harshly onto the ground. Coughing out blood, her countenance turned pale white. Once again, she was humiliated gravely.

She was the holy maiden of the Snowdrift Sacred Hall and had never suffered such humiliation in her entire life. This experience of entering the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy, would surely be a memory she would never forget.

”Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Itʼs always better to maintain some bottom line.” That person from the Heavenly Talisman Realm spoke emotionlessly, no longer glancing at Chu Qingyi. He brought Jun Mengchen and soared away, flying on the top of a sword with great speed, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

”ARGH!” Chu Qingyi screamed. Her heart was filled with endless shame and anger. She vowed that she would definitely make these people pay a price.

Many in the surroundings saw the sorry figure of Chu Qingyi, as their hearts trembled. This was how cruel the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy could be. All the peak supreme geniuses from major powers in the immortal realms were here. So what if you are a holy maiden from a supreme power? You are merely one among the many stars in the sacred academy. Also, given the fact that the backgrounds of the vast majority of people here were similar, why would they show any restraint despite your status?

After a period of time, Lei Ba, Skymist Mu and the others slowly woke up on the platform. The five experts from the Battle Saint Tribe instantly retreated after Qin Wentian killed Chu Qingyi. Despite all their forces, they actually failed to do anything to the combination of those five experts. This made their impressions of the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect grow even deeper.

”Qingyi!” Lei Ba noticed the aura of Chu QIngyi fluctuating wildly, and also given how pale her countenance was, she seemed to be injured. He then glanced at the two at the side as he asked, ”What happened?”

”An expert from Jun Mengchenʼs sect saved him after injuring the holy maiden.” A person replied. Lei Baʼs expression sank as a fearsome rumbling sound could be heard as the might of thunder gathered.

”The strength of the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect isnʼt weak. This is especially true at the immortal foundation level. We once fought against them and I can assure you that their combat prowesses are all overwhelming. They simply wouldnʼt care about the dignity of the Snowdrift Sage Hall and the Thundergod Hall.” Skymist Mu spoke, with provocation clear in his tone.

”In that case, we will war with them since they wanted to war. I will gather experts from the other powers and we will make any from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect pay a terrible price as long as we encounter them.” Lei Baʼs voice boomed. His personality was as such, he had rarely suffered any defeat yet the ending today was clearly one. He initially wanted to act for Chu Qingyi yet in the end, Chu Qingyi was killed before his eyes and even injured further in the real world.

”What aura is that?” At this moment, several people inclined their heads and stared up at the sky as they exclaimed in shock.

Numerous figures rose up into the sky. At this moment, there was a flash of rainbow-colored light as a marvelous aura enveloped this entire dimension.

”BOOM!” The sound of a bell rang out, the sound jolting the hearts of everyone. On the Sky Connecting Altar, everyone sitting on the platforms gradually opened their eyes as a dazed look could be seen within. They were all awakened by the sound of that bell.

”BOOM…” The bell rang out once more, akin to the sound of the Great Dao. Far away in the horizons, a corporeal academy materialized before their eyes, shimmering with resplendent light.

”The twelve year mark has arrived. The Sacred Academy will open its doors, expounding on the Great Dao.” A voice thundered out, causing the entire dimension to tremble. The thunderous roaring might was so great that there were many who had no choice but to cover their ears. No matter which of the four academies people were in, everyone here heard that exact same voice.
