Chapter 592 Chu Ning: The End of Cultivation Is Security
Three days later.
In the mountain courtyard, Chu Ning held a small banquet.
Originally, according to Chu Ning's original temperament, he would have invited most of the disciples of the Holy Palace, if for no other reason, just to receive more gifts.
But in the end, Chu Ning gave up this plan.
In the Cangtian Realm, it is better to have some face, and he is not like before. He has no shortage of ordinary treasures. The treasures that he likes may not be available to these disciples of the Holy Palace, and even if they do, they will not give them to him as gifts.
Therefore, in the end, only a small-scale banquet was held, and all the guests were disciples of Uncle Chang, and there were no other outsiders.
Hong Rongduan also prepared a heavy gift for Xu Ruobing at the banquet, a top-level defensive virtual weapon: Wudingyi.
When wearing this robe, the spiritual consciousness and qi of the incarnation cultivators cannot lock it, and it can also withstand ten attacks from the peak of the incarnation.
Even when facing the cave virtual strongman, it can buy a few breaths of time.
But the most important thing for the Dongxu strongman is to inform the other party that there is also a Dongxu strongman standing behind Xu Ruobing.
Wu Ding Yi, only Dongxu strongman can refine it.
…
…
The next month.
After spending a month of honeymoon with Xu Ruobing, Chu Ning went to the main hall of the Holy Palace alone.
The Palace Master Fan Taichu was already waiting there.
"Palace Master, the disciple is ready."
"Well, follow me."
Fan Taichu nodded, raised his right hand, and Chu Ning felt the surrounding space fluctuate, and the space of the entire hall rippled like water waves.
The Palace Master also mastered the way of space?
Yes, the existence of the Palace Master's level can no longer be understood by common sense.
"Let's go."
Fan Taichu took Chu Ning to walk in the hall, and Chu Ning could feel the changes in space with every step he took.
So now he actually crossed a space with every step he took, but the strange thing is that the surrounding scene did not change at all. He was still in the hall, just walking a few steps in the hall.
The Holy Courtyard is hidden deep in the overlapping spaces of the main hall.
Sixty-four steps!
Chu Ning silently counted the steps, and at this moment he had already walked from the main hall entrance to the center of the main hall. After taking this step, the surrounding environment changed instantly.
He was no longer in the main hall, but appeared outside a bamboo forest.
Chu Ning's eyes could see some eaves from afar through the bamboo forest, but his spiritual sense could not see the situation inside through the bamboo forest.
Is this the Holy Courtyard?
Why does it feel so similar to the scene of a literary master's retreat in the previous life?
"This is the Holy Courtyard. The one in the bamboo forest is the Holy Courtyard built by the Saint."
Fan Taichu gave Chu Ning a definite answer and explained with a smile: "When the Saint came to the south, he built a bamboo forest here. There are three courtyards in it. One is where the Saint lives, one is where the jade slips are stored, and one is where the Saint practices."
"Back then, the Saint did not intend to establish a sect. He stayed here for three thousand years. A foundation-building cultivator accidentally broke into the bamboo forest. The Saint thought it was fate and taught him to practice. This was the Saint's first disciple and the first Palace Master of my Saint Palace."
The Saint is the ancestor of the Saint Palace, but the Saint did not serve as the Palace Master. With the body of a Saint, how could he spend his mind on the construction and management of the sect.
Originally, Fan Taichu, the Palace Master, did not need to tell Chu Ning about these past events of the sect, but Fan Taichu had a good impression of Chu Ning. He also heard about the Nine-Fold Spring, so he personally took Chu Ning to the Holy Courtyard.
"The first palace owner founded the Holy Palace, but the Holy Courtyard is the most sacred place in the Holy Palace. Only the five disciples of the saint can enter the Holy Courtyard."
After listening to the introduction of his own palace owner, Chu Ning knew how the Holy Palace was formed.
After the first disciple of the saint left the bamboo forest, he became famous in the southern part of the Cangtian Realm. In the end, he had a conflict with several major sects in the south and was hunted down by the strong men of the other sects.
Finally, the saint took action and the strong men of these sects were directly wiped out. Only then did the cultivators in the entire south know that there was such a terrifying existence in the south.
Many forces came to the disciple of the saint, and finally the disciple of the saint established the Holy Palace. The saint also accepted four more disciples in the following ten thousand years. Under the leadership of these five disciples, the Holy Palace soon ruled most of the southern area.
In the tens of thousands of years that followed, when the Holy Palace was at its most glorious, it once ruled the entire southern part. However, any power would decline from prosperity. Although the Holy Palace did not decline, it could not reach its peak again. Until the last tens of thousands of years, the Nirvana Sect began to gradually rise and compete with the Holy Palace, forming the current situation of two strong powers.
"The Holy Courtyard has some traces left by the saints who realized the truth in the past, but it is not a good thing for you disciples to step into it. Only the elders of my Holy Palace can enter, and they can only enter once every thousand years. As for you disciples, you can only guard the Holy Courtyard outside this bamboo forest."
Chu Ning scratched his head in confusion when he heard this: "Master, does this Holy Courtyard still need someone to guard it?"
With so many overlapping spaces deep in the center of the main hall of the Holy Palace, Chu Ning didn't think anyone could break in. If someone could really break in, it would definitely not be something that a disciple of the God Transformation like him could guard.
So the task of guarding the Holy Courtyard is purely to give the disciples of the God Transformation a benefit?
"Don't think that the sect asked you to guard the Holy Court just to give you a chance to get close to the Holy Court."
Fan Taichu saw what Chu Ning was thinking and said with a smile: "The saints gained enlightenment here in the past, and their realm was heavenly, leaving traces of the Great Dao."
"In the Cangtian Realm, the Great Dao is common. If there happens to be a lucky person who has a breakthrough in the understanding of the Dao and resonates with the Great Dao of heaven and earth, there is a chance to appear here, and what you have to do is to prevent the other party from entering."
"Resonance of the Great Dao?"
Chu Ning frowned: "Master, those who can get this level must be at least Dongxu strongmen, right? Can the disciples stop them?"
"Dongxu level, even if you master the entire Great Dao, you don't have the opportunity to come here. Here. "Fan Taichu looked into the depths of the Holy Academy: "People call a hundred-year-old Nascent Soul a peerless prodigy, but will a thousand-year-old Divine Transformation be called a prodigy?"
"No."
"In the Cangtian Realm, the recognition of a prodigy is often the recognition of a prodigy by the Way of Heaven. To attract the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and enter the Holy Academy, one must be below the Void Realm. This involves the rules of the Way of Heaven, which cannot be changed by human power."
Fan Taichu did not explain the reason to Chu Ning too much. As the saying goes, if the realm is not high, the more you know, the more it will interfere with your cultivation. When the realm is high enough, you will naturally understand it.
"But you don't have to worry too much. This situation rarely happens. In the history of the Holy Academy, only nine Divine Transformation masters have come here. "
As for whether these nine Divine Transformation masters have entered, Fan Taichu did not say, and Chu Ning did not ask.
He understood the purpose of his own sect asking these disciples to guard the Holy Academy.
To put it bluntly, this is an opportunity given by heaven to those top geniuses at the level of transformation of spirits, to enter the Holy Academy to observe the traces of the great way left by the saints, but the Holy Palace is unwilling to do so. How can their own treasures be given to outsiders? They arranged them to stop it.
Chu Ning thought about it and thought that if he were the Lord of the Holy Palace, he would do the same, because those who can appear here are geniuses at the level of transformation of spirits who already have their own sects, and it is impossible for them to join the Holy Palace again.
This kind of thing of using one's own resources to cultivate strong people from other sects must be stopped unless there is a hole in the brain, or the saint left instructions in the past.
"Lord of the Palace, if this is the case, why don't you arrange for the elders to come... to guard and not let outsiders in?"
Chu Ning believed that those elders would definitely be willing, and being able to stay in the Holy Academy would also be attractive enough for these elders.
Fan Taichu smiled when he heard Chu Ning's words: "This is a gift from Heaven. What our Saint Palace can do is to question the strength of those lucky people. If Elder Dongxu is allowed to stay in the Saint Academy, it will be against Heaven."
Chu Ning understood it immediately.
Going against Heaven will not benefit the Saint Palace.
Now sending a disciple of the God of Transformation here to stop it is not called going against Heaven.
It's like a top university. The higher-ups want to arrange for someone to enter without passing the college entrance examination. They say that this person is a genius. The school is a little dissatisfied with him occupying the admission quota, but they can't refuse him openly. Since the higher-ups say that he is a genius, they will arrange a set of test papers. If you can pass it, you will be recognized as a genius and can enter.
But the questions of this test paper cannot be too beyond the syllabus, otherwise a set of doctoral-level test papers will not prove whether he is a real genius, but deliberately use it to slap the higher-ups in the face.
If the higher-ups are angry, it will naturally do more harm than good to the school.
It is the same in the Holy Palace. Letting the disciples of the God Transformation to stop them is not considered to be competing with the Heavenly Dao. It is just to verify the Tianjiao who came in. This is also the right of the Holy Palace.
Chu Ning also understood why the Palace Lord did not tell him how to notify the Palace Lord and the elders if someone broke in. There was no need to notify him at all. He was the last gatekeeper.
If he defeated himself, he could go in, and the Palace Lord and the elders would not stop him.
I don’t know how many of the nine Tianjiao of the God Transformation who came here in history have entered.
“For a hundred years, no matter what happens, you are not allowed to enter the bamboo forest. If someone really appears, you don’t have to stop them. Just let them in.”
After the final explanation, Fan Taichu left, leaving Chu Ning alone outside the bamboo forest.
Outside the bamboo forest, there is a pavilion with a stone table inside. There is nothing else. Chu Ning glanced around and finally stepped into the pavilion.
Isn’t this a standard security booth?
It’s also good to be a security guard for a hundred years.
…
…
Zhongzhou.
Taiyi Academy.
Several men couldn't help but look at the red-dressed female cultivator in the courtyard. The hot red dress matched with the frosty expression. This extreme contrast was hard not to attract attention. However, the red-dressed female cultivator's eyes were cold and her delicate face did not show any emotional fluctuations.
"Ahem, you should have heard a saying that the Saint of the Holy Palace is the first person in the Cangtian Realm who deserved to be transformed into a spirit and enter the cave void. The traces of the great way left by his enlightenment in the Holy Academy will be of great benefit to us in entering the cave void."
In the courtyard, a late-stage spirit transformation expert glanced at everyone: "This is also the reason why we are gathered here."
