Chapter 1266: Blank (2 in 1)

“What?!”

Luo Tian’s heart sank.

He had come to Misty Cloud Academy holding onto this hope.

Misty Cloud Academy was the strongest institution on the Central Continent, filled with countless experts. Someone must know the formula for the Soul Poison antidote.

But now, Luo Tian felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His body swayed, and he could barely stand steady.

Was the lead broken, just like that?!

Illusion Fairy knew a little about the formula for the Soul Poison antidote, but it wasn’t complete. Moreover, Illusion Fairy had said that with her current understanding, she couldn’t fully deduce the complete formula.

Luo Tian clenched his fists under his sleeves.

Ren Xiaoyao didn’t know how important the Soul Poison’s antidote was to Luo Tian.

After all, how could something like the Soul Poison, which was rare even in the Ancient World, appear in a lower plane?

Could it be because the lower plane was an Origin World?

Seeing Luo Tian’s pained expression, Ren Xiaoyao said, “That old alchemist is definitely still alive; he might return any day. Additionally, his older brother, Tian Long, is the current Acting Dean. Maybe he knows something about the Soul Poison’s antidote.”

Luo Tian’s gaze instantly steadied as he looked at Ren Xiaoyao and asked, “Really?”

At this moment in time, it was as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw in the vast ocean. His shattered hope was reignited!

Ren Xiaoyao didn’t know what else to say, so he replied, “Don’t worry. I will speak to Dean Huangfu about this matter. He will definitely find a way to obtain the formula for the Soul Poison’s antidote. Your top priority right now is tomorrow’s ranking battle. Dean Tian Long has never thought highly of you. If you can take first place this time, perhaps he will see you in a new light. That would make it easier for you to ask him for the antidote’s formula later.”

Luo Tian nodded and said, “Don’t worry, I will definitely take first place tomorrow!”

No amount of difficulty can stop his steps!

No one!

——————————

Early in the morning, the academy was boiling with excitement.

The news that the Sky Mountain Holy Saintess had joined Misty Cloud Academy spread like wildfire, causing the entire Misty Cloud City to seethe with excitement. ℞𝙖𝐍О𐌱Ëṣ

It had been a full hundred years since the last time a Holy Saintess appeared in the world.

The last time was on the Four Divine Beasts Continent.

Starting from that time, the Four Divine Beasts Continent suppressed the Eurasian Holy Church forces, becoming the strongest continent among the five continents. And the Four Divine Beasts Clans became the strongest families.

Over the past one hundred years, no one had been able to shake the might of the Four Divine Beasts.

This time, she appeared on the Central Continent, and at Misty Cloud Academy no less. This instantly ignited a fire in everyone’s hearts.

It must be known that among the five continents, the Central Continent was in the middle of the other four. It had the smallest territory, was oppressed by the other four major powers year-round, and was the weakest power among the five continents.

This gave the martial artists on the Central Continent a glimmer of hope for rising up.

Where there were happy people, naturally, there were angry people.

“Pak~!”

“A bunch of trash!”

“You are all trash!”

“You didn’t find out about such an important matter like the Holy Saintess appearing in Misty Cloud City until now?! If Tian Long hadn’t released the news, we would still be in the dark! I really don’t know why the Hai family feeds you people!” Hai Tongtian was furiously angry.

Phoenix Sky Mountain was the number one holy mountain in the Ancient Continent. The spiritual energy within it was infinitely vast!

Rumors say there are gods on the Holy Mountain! Experts from the Domain of Gods!

There were also rumors that the Holy Mountain was the gateway to the Domain of Gods.

No force, not even the current Four Divine Beasts Continent, dared to show the slightest disrespect to the Holy Mountain.

Its power was unimaginable!

In the hall, numerous elders lowered their heads, especially the commander of the Shadow Group.

Too many things had happened in the past few days. Between the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and now the Holy Saintess of Phoenix Sky Mountain, he simply couldn’t investigate them all. Moreover, facing pressure from Hai Tongtian yesterday, he had sent all his manpower to investigate the Azure Dragon’s roar. Who could have expected a Sky Mountain Holy Saintess to suddenly pop up?

An elder stepped forward and said, “Patriarch, while the power of the Sky Mountain Holy Saintess is immense, Sky Mountain’s rule is not to interfere with worldly affairs. The Holy Saintess’s appearance at Misty Cloud Academy won’t change anything. If we can take over Misty Cloud Academy, wouldn’t she become one of our Hai family’s people?”

“That’s right!”

“The Holy Mountain treats its rules as absolute law; they will never break them. Once broken, her status as a Holy Saintess would be revoked.”

“This doesn’t hinder our plans. On the contrary, we can speed up our pace.”

The elders spoke up one after another.

Hai Tongtian looked at them with some helplessness. However, on second thought, it was exactly as they said. The Holy Mountain’s rule for their people was not interfere in worldly matters. They had their own objectives, and once those objectives were achieved, they would leave on their own.

However, Hai Tongtian was still a bit worried. The last time a Holy Saintess appeared on the Four Divine Beasts Continent, she didn’t interfere in the confrontation between the Four Divine Beasts Clans and the Holy Church forces either. Yet, the Four Divine Beasts Clans won inexplicably, and it was a complete victory.

This allowed them to lay the foundation for their dominance over the Ancient World.

Hai Tongtian narrowed his eyes while thinking to himself, “It looks like I need to let Huang’er out of seclusion early.”

The people from the Azure Dragon Clan had appeared.

The Holy Saintess of Phoenix Sky Mountain had also appeared.

Added to that was Luo Tian, whose popularity was like the sun at high noon. The current Misty Cloud Academy was becoming incredibly rowdy. Even the entire Central Continent was beginning to surge with undercurrents. That wasn’t all; after the Phoenix Holy Saintess appeared, the forces of the other four continents all began to stir.

Experts from all walks of life were quietly pouring into Misty Cloud City!

Misty Cloud Academy, on the training field.

The place was bustling with people, with heads bobbing everywhere.

There were several times more people than in the previous two days.

The ranking battles were certainly exciting, but many people just wanted to catch a glimpse of a Holy Saintess’s elegance. To see exactly what a legendary Holy Saintess looked like.

Luo Tian and Liu Zhan arrived at the field and were startled by the scene before them.

Liu Zhan clicked his tongue and said, “So many people. Could they all be here to see this Young Master?”

As he said that, he even adjusted his hairstyle.

He winked at the pretty girls passing by, revealing a smile he thought was very handsome and cool, but was actually quite perverted.

It scared the group of girls into running away quickly while shouting, “A pervert!”

Liu Zhan paid it no mind, wearing an expression of self-satisfaction. He then said, “Did you see that? Those pretty girls blushed when they saw me and ran away one by one. They must have been captivated by this Young Master’s handsomeness, hahaha…”

“Hey, hey, hey…”

“Boss, wait for me!”

Liu Zhan was daydreaming about a nonexistent romance, and Luo Tian couldn’t listen anymore. He had already walked far away.

“Luo Tian! Let’s see where you can run today!” Hai Xiao suddenly blocked in front of Luo Tian.

His face was full of disdain as he said, “If it weren’t for Uncle Fengtian’s arrangement, you would have already lost to my sword! Today is the ranking battle; let’s see where else you can hide!”

Huang Tianyu also sneered, “Luo Tian, if I were you, I would secretly leave and go back to whatever remote gully I came from. I would never come out for the rest of my life because only then might you escape this calamity.”

“What are you two being so arrogant for?”

At this moment, Huangfu Ya walked over as well. Her expression was ice cold as she said, “Hai Xiao, you seem to be quite arrogant, huh? Later on in the stage, let’s see if your ancient demonic beast bloodline is more powerful, or my Spacetime bloodline is more powerful.”

“And you, Huang Tianyu!”

“What kind of thing do you think you are? Do you even have the qualifications to be arrogant here?”

Huangfu Ya didn’t give them any face at all, making them sound completely worthless.

Huang Tianyu’s face looked extremely ugly, his fists making cracking sounds from being clenched tightly.

Hai Xiao’s brow tightened while he stared coldly at Huangfu Ya. He then thought to himself, “Today, aside from Luo Tian dying, you, Huangfu Ya, will also die. Just wait for me, and watch how I will ravage you to death, you damn slut!”

Huang Tianyu was extremely pissed off but only harrumphed internally, “Slut! Slut! Slut!”

Huangfu Ya pulled Luo Tian away.

This action made Liu Zhan, who was tagging along behind Luo Tian, envious once again.

Huangfu Ya put on the air of a privileged young lady and said condescendingly, “How are you going to thank me? If I hadn’t just helped you out of that situation, they would have humiliated you even more. I don’t need your thanks, just call me Big Sis so I can hear it.”

Liu Zhan immediately took a step forward and said with a smile, “Big Sis.”

Completely shameless.

Luo Tian smiled and said, “I didn’t ask you to help me out, and I didn’t need you to help me out. Those two won’t live past today.”

Huangfu Ya became unhappy instantly, pouting her small lips in anger. “Humph~! You think you’re so amazing, huh? So arrogant, huh? I’d like to see just how you’re going to make sure they don’t live past today. Someone actually asked me to pass on a message to you, but now that you made this Young Miss unhappy, I’m not going to say it anymore. Just wait to suffer.”

“Humph~!”

Huangfu Ya had only taken a few steps before she turned around to stare angrily at Luo Tian. “I will formally challenge you today, too. I will defeat you, humph~!”

She then left in anger after saying this.

Liu Zhan waved his hand with a grin and said, “Safe travels, Big Sis! Come again, Big Sis! Big Sis…”

Only when Huangfu Ya’s figure had completely disappeared did Liu Zhan turn his head and say to Luo Tian, “Holy crap! You actually said something like that to such a beautiful girl? Are you trying to break her heart? If she’s heartbroken, then I’m heartbroken. And if I’m heartbroken…”

“Hey, hey, hey… Let me finish speaking! Don’t walk away!”

In another area, Huangfu Ya was stomping her feet in anger while clenching her small fists. She had the feeling that she was going to go crazy!

Little did she know that her angry appearance was incredibly cute.

Still wearing a cloak, Yi Yunmeng couldn’t help but say, “Stop focusing on being angry. Did you tell him what I asked you to?”

Huangfu Ya replied directly, “Nope! Doesn’t Luo Tian think he’s so amazing? Doesn’t he like being arrogant? I want to see how arrogant he can be inside a cultivation-suppressing barrier! Let’s see how arrogant he is when he can’t release those powerful martial skills, humph~!”

Yi Yunmeng’s expression turned shocked before she said somewhat reproachfully, “Why didn’t you tell him? It’s not like you don’t know how formidable the suppression barrier is. Inside that kind of barrier, he won’t even be able to beat an opponent at the Great Diffusion 3rd rank, let alone fight against Hai Xiao, who is in the Myriad Illusion realm. He’ll die in there.”

Yi Yunmeng instantly became worried.

After calming down a bit, Huangfu Ya also realized she had gone a bit overboard. She looked like a child who had done something wrong when she muttered, “I’ll go tell him right now.”

Right at that moment, Liu Feng read out the list, “Luo Tian versus Hai Hong, barrier stage number eighteen!”

“It’s over…”

“The fight has started.”

“And it’s inside the number eighteen suppression barrier again.” Yi Yunmeng’s body went limp as she could barely stand properly.
