Chapter 2025: Chapter 2025: While in Seclusion, The Day of Return
The group, including Ye Qiubai, who returned to the Longevity World,
immediately entered a state of seclusion.
Huang Qian, accompanied by Xiang Liu, the Bonewing Snake Tiger, and the Candle Dragon, approached the willow tree.
"It seems the harvest this time is bountiful," the willow branches swayed, and the willow tree spoke softly.
Huang Qian was just about to speak when a voice echoed over.
"Indeed, these individuals shone brightly in this war. Not only did they face the millions of troops from the Immortal Realm, but they also slew two Main Gods, and in the end, confronted a Creation Realm Middle Stage expert."
Liu Ziru emerged from the teleportation array, spread his hands under the willow tree, and watched in the direction of Ye Qiubai and the others in seclusion, with a helpless smile: "In just these few days, experiencing so many life-and-death crises, and gaining so much fortune, they haven’t even had time to go into seclusion to absorb the residual power.
It’s just a matter of time before they break through, it’s just a matter of how much they break through."
Xiang Liu smiled and said, "Given their talent, the commotion from this breakthrough won’t be small."
Liu Ziru looked at Xiang Liu, "How about we make a bet? Gamble on how far they can break through?"
Xiang Liu waved his hand, sitting cross-legged, "Forget it, I don’t have time."
No time?
Just about to ask why, Liu Ziru saw a breath swirling around Xiang Liu’s body.
"You’re going to break through too?" Liu Ziru rolled his eyes and then looked at the others.
He saw that around Huang Qian, the Bonewing Snake Tiger, and the Candle Dragon, there was also a swirling breath.
"Isn’t it???," Liu Ziru was dumbfounded, "You’re all going to break through? What about me?"
The willow tree laughed, "What, you didn’t participate in the war?"
"I did! But as part of the intelligence forces, I couldn’t be on the front line, could I?"
"Then that’s just it?"
Liu Ziru clenched his fist.
At that time, he’d become the weakest in the Longevity World!
Even this big dog (Bonewing Snake Tiger) and Xiang Liu would be stronger than him!
Originally, Liu Ziru’s strength was comparable to these two.
"No, where’s Senior Lu?" Liu Ziru looked left and right.
The willow tree replied, "He hasn’t returned yet, why do you ask?"
Liu Ziru glanced at these creatures nearby, gritting his teeth: "To see if Senior Lu has any new pills for me to try!"
Willow Tree: "..."
Remembering how the previous new medicinal pills turned people into ghostly figures, the willow tree remained silent.
Just as Liu Ziru finished speaking, a low rumble echoed in the sky above the Longevity World.
The spiritual energy between heaven and earth began to surge wildly, gathering from all directions as if responding to some invisible call, forming vortexes of spirit mist visible to the naked eye, swirling over the retreats of Ye Qiubai and his group.
The density of this spirit mist vortex was unmatched even in the Immortal Realm.
Not to mention this aura was of a higher grade than Divine Energy—it was Holy Qi!
With the Spirit Gathering Array set up by Lu Chang’sheng, the speed of gathering Holy Qi was astonishingly fast, with the spirit mist so dense it seemed ready to condense into water and even felt heavy as if it would fall.
The willow tree also acted at the same time, with eleven willow branches each descending over the retreats of Ye Qiubai and the eleven others, gathering a surge of endless vitality, enhancing the absorption efficiency for the eleven.
Liu Ziru looked up at the sky and softly said, "I wonder to what extent they can break through."
...
Wilderness Realm.
At this moment, the Wilderness Realm was unaffected by the war, and no one here ventured to participate in the Immortal Realm war in the Chaos Realm.
After all, the realm of cultivators here was too low. In the Chaos Realm, they played no significant role and could easily be killed by residual forces.
So it remained a flourishing scene.
Compared to the Chaos Realm, this was truly a land of peace.
Today’s Southern Region is drastically different from before.
It has transformed from the weakest region to the acknowledged center of the Wilderness Realm.
After all, Lu Chang’sheng, Ye Qiubai, Hong Ying, Ning Chenxin, Blackie, and Shi Sheng all emerged from here.
The Green Cloud Sword Sect, The Study Room, and the Cloud Phoenix Empire all reside here.
Naturally, it attracts numerous strong individuals and young prodigies.
All aiming to join these three forces, to climb this towering tree!
However, the Southern Region’s Hidden Dao Academy cannot be ignored.
It’s important to know that before the rise of the Green Cloud Sword Sect, Cloud Phoenix Empire, and The Study Room, they all had joined the Southern Region’s Hidden Dao Academy!
Although it would be several months before the admissions of the Hidden Dao Academy starts,
the entire Southern Region is already bustling with activity.
The cities near the Hidden Dao Academy have packed inns and taverns!
In the Hidden Dao Academy.
Dean Qin Tiannan sat at the head, looking at the elders of each hall below and said, "There are quite a lot of people here this time, and you all should have some favored candidates, right?"
The elder of the Pill Hall appeared a bit older, looked at the scroll in his hand, which had about a dozen names, and with a fond smile, stroked his white beard, "There are quite a few talented individuals this time, and I’ve taken a liking to a few promising ones."
The elder of the Sword Hall seemed troubled, "Currently, all the sword cultivators in the entire Wilderness Sword Domain would prioritize choosing the Green Cloud Sword Sect. They only try to join our Sword Hall if they can’t get into the Green Cloud Sword Sect first."
The elder of the Martial Hall laughed heartily, "Well, Ye Qiubai went and established his own force, didn’t he?"
The elder of the Sword Hall was so distressed that he lost a few strands of white hair, helplessly saying, "After witnessing Ye Qiubai’s talent in the Sword Dao, today’s young sword cultivators just don’t impress me anymore."
"Isn’t that the truth?" Dean Ru spread his hands and said, "The Study Room also poached a large portion of the Confucian Dao practitioners."
The elder of the Array Hall patted him on the shoulder, comforting, "It’s fine. After all, we are in an alliance with the Green Cloud Sword Sect and The Study Room, their students will come here to practice for a while, and our students will go there too."
The elder of the Sword Hall rolled his eyes, "You’re happy no one’s snatching your students, right?"
The elders of the Array Hall, Martial Hall, and Pill Hall all couldn’t help but burst into hearty laughter.
"Alright, alright," Qin Tiannan pressed his hands to interrupt, "Let’s not talk about this anymore. With so many people gathering at Hidden Dao Academy, and with many promising individuals, I think it’s time we expand the enrollment, don’t you think?"
The elders all nodded in agreement.
Among them, not only were there young prodigies from the Wilderness Realm, but also from other Great Realms.
"But many of them want to join The Cottage or go there to observe and see if they can catch any Dao runes left by that young Chang’sheng..." Qin Tiannan said.
"The Cottage? The entire mountain of the Cottage is gone! What’s the use of going there?!" Out of patience, the elder of the Sword Hall exclaimed.
"Huh? I’ve just returned once, and why do I already hear someone cursing me?"
A voice suddenly resounded in the grand hall.
Another elderly voice followed swiftly.
"Why, I’ve left, and this is how you’ve been getting by in the academy?"
Qin Tiannan and the others were startled, turning their heads towards the entrance.
There, a man in white and an elder emerged from the space.
