Jianling College is different from many other colleges, large and small, in Jianling City. To be more precise, it is superior to all colleges in Jianling City.
The total number of people in the huge Jianling City exceeds 300 million, but the number of students in Jianling Academy is barely over 10,000. However, it is these tens of thousands of people who occupy one of the best areas in Jianling City, and their area is hundreds of times larger than that of other universities.
At Jianling Academy, students not only have to learn current scientific knowledge, but more importantly, they need to learn the way to cultivate immortality. Each of its students is a cultivator of immortality who has the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the earth. Therefore, Jianling Academy is also known as the "Immortal Academy"!
Of course, the conditions for entering Jianling Academy are also extremely harsh. First of all, you must have spiritual roots. This is also the threshold for entering the path of cultivating immortals. This alone limits 99% of people. Secondly, it also tests a person's understanding. If you want to achieve something on the immortal path, in some aspects, understanding is even more important than everything else. Finally, one must be loyal to Jianling Academy, or to be more precise, loyal to Jianling Sect. There are rumors that Jianling Academy is the place where talents are trained for the legendary Jianling Sect.
A few hours later, Bing Chen and Ling Xuan arrived in front of a magnificent gate. A door frame spans two hills, with four characters "Jianling Academy" written in a pen and dancing dragons and phoenixes!
Looking around, the mountains are rolling, auspicious and auspicious, full of spiritual energy, and it seems to have the charm of an immortal Taoist mansion.
When you step into the gate, you will be greeted by silence, and the occasional crane call makes this place even more fairyland-like.
In the distance, a few people could be seen walking with swords, and they all looked proud and leisurely.
Carrying the ice dust, Ling Xuan flew over several hills before stopping at one of the tops filled with green bamboos.
"My master's name is Qiu Yunzhu. He is a very gentle person. Brother, there is no need to be restrained." Ling Xuan gently held Bingchen's arm and said.
A touch of tenderness appeared on his face, he nodded slightly, and then followed Ling Xuan towards a courtyard on the top of the mountain.
After seemingly waiting for a long time, Ling Xuan knocked on the door gently, and a female voice came from inside.
"come in."
The voice was soft and seemed to have an evocative tenderness.
Looking back at Bing Chen, Ling Xuan smiled lightly, opened the door and walked inside.
Wearing a light green dress, a woman who looked to be in her thirties, with a slim figure and an outstanding appearance stood in the center of the living room. Seeing Ling Xuan and the others coming in, the woman smiled softly.
"Master!" Ling Xuan said with a slight salute.
"Well, you must be tired from traveling continuously. Let's sit down first."
With a wave of the woman's hand, the two chairs flew to the side of Bing Chen and the others.
"Hehe, thank you, Master."
"Junior Bingchen, greet Senior Qiu." Bingchen cupped his fists and bowed.
"No need to be polite, just sit down first." Qiu Yunzhu said softly.
Ling Xuan gently pulled Bing Chen, nodded slightly to him, and then the two of them took their seats one by one.
"Middle stage of concentration!"
Until now, Bingchen had no time to take a closer look at Qiu Yunzhu's cultivation.
"I heard from Xuan'er that my little friend wants to enter our Jianling Academy?" Qiu Yunzhu asked.
"Yes, this junior has longed for Jianling Academy for a long time. However, he has been searching for a way to no avail, so he has no choice but to shamelessly beg Xuan'er to bother senior. I hope senior will forgive me." Bingchen stood up and clasped his fists.
"It doesn't matter. As long as you meet the requirements, our Jianling Academy will open the door."
"This junior was born in Jianling City, and is currently studying at Qingyun College. As for the qualifications for cultivating immortals, I don't know the specifics, but I occasionally acquired some immortal cultivation techniques in my early years, and now I have entered the threshold of cultivating immortals. I wonder if this junior can meet the requirements?"
"Oh, my little friend's current cultivation is based on his own perception, not the guidance of others?" Qiu Yunzhu said slightly surprised.
"With no one to guide me, I'm in a daze. I've been practicing for several years, and I'm only at this level now. I don't dare to have any confidence in myself." Bing Chen sighed.
"Yes, yes, I see that my little friend has a strong aura. It is very difficult to achieve such an achievement without anyone's guidance. Can you please use your spiritual power to have a look with me?"
Bingchen nodded, and then made a gesture, a chill suddenly swept over him, and the temperature of the entire living room dropped sharply. And around him, ice crystals condensed in the air at a speed visible to the naked eye. Within a moment, they had formed into sheets.
"This is!"
"Ice-based skills! Are you Ice Spirit Root?" Qiu Yunzhu was surprised and asked quickly.
"This junior doesn't know why I have spiritual roots. This is the spiritual power I have developed since I obtained that technique."
Qiu Yunzhu was overjoyed, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.
The ice element goes beyond the Five Elements, and is also a very rare attribute outside of the Five Elements. As far as she knew, in this world, except for that sect, it was extremely rare for outsiders to possess such spiritual attributes. If this ice dust is the ice spirit root, then you have found a treasure this time!
"You come with me!"
After thinking for a while, Qiu Yunzhu stood up, took out his flying sword, called Bing Chen, and the two of them flew away into the distance.
Upon seeing this, Ling Xuan hurriedly followed, but there was a faint look of worry on her face.
A few minutes later, three people stopped in front of a simple and elegant building. Before Bingchen could take a closer look, Qiu Yunzhu called him to follow him in.
"Fairy Qiu doesn't come to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. I don't know which gust of wind brought you here today." A middle-aged man stood up to greet you with a smile on his face.
"Elder Zhou, I have a new disciple at Cuizhu Peak. Today I am bringing him to test his spiritual roots. I would like to do it for Elder Zhou's convenience." Qiu Yunzhu said with a slight salute.
Turning his gaze towards Bing Chen, after a brief inspection, Elder Zhou showed a bit of surprise in his eyes.
"That's him, he's already reached the third level of spiritual realm. Why, you still don't know his spiritual roots?"
"This disciple of mine used to be a casual cultivator from outside. He has only recently joined our sect and has not received any systematic cultivation guidance."
"Oh, that's it." Elder Zhou frowned slightly.
"Junior Sister Qiu, please be careful. You must know that these students are..."
"I don't need to worry about it now, Elder Zhou. I have my own sense of discretion. Please ask Elder Zhou to start the formation."
After taking a deep look at Bing Chen again, Elder Zhou said to him: "Step onto the stone platform and relax your mind."
Bingchen did as he was told, and when he stood on the stone platform, Elder Zhou immediately made a seal, and a mysterious light penetrated into the stone platform, and the entire stone platform suddenly glowed dimly.
After a moment, a ray of pale golden light suddenly shot out from the stone platform, forming four faint golden auras around Bing Chen.
"Well, it's not bad, the fourth-turn golden spiritual root." Elder Zhou said.
When Qiu Yunzhu saw this, a little disappointment flashed in his eyes.
A sly smile appeared at the corner of Bingchen's mouth. As soon as he thought, the stone platform suddenly became full of mysterious light, and then a strong white light shot out from the stone platform. It changed rapidly, and finally formed six icicles that exuded a deep chill around him.
"This is it! Sixth Turn Ice Spiritual Root!"
Elder Zhou exclaimed, staring excitedly at the six icicles.
Seeing this, Qiu Yunzhu showed a smile on her face, and she felt a bit relieved.
Similarly, Ling Xuan on the side also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She knew some of Bing Chen's secrets, but she was really afraid that Bing Chen's true spiritual roots would be detected, or that Master and the others would discover the special skills Bing Chen practiced.
"Okay, okay, Level 6 Ice Spiritual Root, Junior Sister Qiu's luck is really enviable to Senior Brother and I." Elder Zhou said with excitement.
"Elder Zhou was joking. This is the sect's luck, not my own luck. I don't dare to take the credit for myself."
"Well, you can't say that, it will make many old guys feel unhappy. Junior sister, you first took Ling Xuan, the sixth-turn wind spirit root, and now you take this kid, the sixth-turn ice spirit root, and both of them It’s a special spiritual root with such a high level. If it were placed in the sect, I’m afraid some unborn old guys would jump out.”
Speaking of this, he seemed to have thought of something again. Elder Zhou suddenly changed the subject, glanced at Bing Chen faintly, and said: "Boy, how about you become your teacher? I guarantee that you will get enough cultivation resources to help you." You grow up fast.”
"Elder Zhou, what do you mean by this?" Qiu Yunzhu asked softly.
"Junior Sister Qiu, don't be so stingy. Now that you have Ling Xuan, you can't be too greedy, right? Besides, do you have so much energy to teach another disciple? Don't miss this great cultivation qualification."
"Humph, I won't bother Elder Zhou about my affairs. The spiritual root test has been completed. I also asked Elder Zhou to register Bing Chen. From now on, he will be my disciple of Cuizhu Peak."
Hearing this, Elder Zhou's expression froze, with a hint of sinister expression on his face, he looked at Bing Chen and asked, "Boy, what are you thinking about? I am the elder of Jianling Academy, and my power is not comparable to that of some people."
"You! Humph!"
Qiu Yunzhu let out a soft hum.
"Elder Zhou has great love, and this junior understands me well. Senior Qiu and I have the kindness of knowing each other. I am willing to stay under Senior Qiu's disciples," Bing Chen said.
"snort!"
Elder Zhou snorted coldly, his face suddenly full of displeasure.
"Think carefully, it's not too late to regret now."
"Please forgive me, Elder Zhou." Bing Chen cupped his fists and bowed.
Bing Chen felt so disgusted that he didn't come over to test his spiritual roots, so he provoked this elder for no reason, and it was so embarrassing.
"Okay, okay, if that's the case, just go back and wait for the news." Elder Zhou said dissatisfied. Then he ignored Qiu Yunzhu and the others, turned around and walked towards the inner room.
"I'm sorry, Senior Qiu, for bringing you unnecessary trouble."
After exiting the main hall, seeing Qiu Yunzhu frowning slightly and looking unhappy, Bingchen quickly stepped forward to apologize.
Qiu Yunzhu's face softened slightly and she said softly, "Don't worry, it's none of your business. Go back first."
Back at Cuizhu Peak, Qiu Yunzhu made some arrangements and handed Bingchen to Ling Xuan.
Bingchen also had some leisure time, looked at Ling Xuan and joked: "Let's go, Senior Sister Xuan'er, take me to visit the legendary Jianling Academy."
Giving Bing Chen an angry look, Ling Xuan gently held Bing Chen's arm and said, "Go to Xuan'er's dormitory first, there is a surprise waiting for brother."
Ling Xuan's dormitory is located on Cuizhu Peak. It is more like a garden villa than a dormitory. In the center of a courtyard covering an area of several thousand square meters is an exquisite two-story loft. It's early spring, and the courtyard is dotted with flowers and light green buds, giving it a poetic feel.
"It's so annoying to compare people to each other. How many people live in an apartment of tens of square meters outside, and this, hey." Bing Chen pretended to sigh.
"Hehe, this will also be my brother's home from now on."
Seeing Bing Chen stunned, Ling Xuan continued with a slightly red face: "There are not many dormitories here, but Xuan'er spent more than a day taking good care of this place. From now on, my brother's dormitory will also be here, and Xuan'er will live in the building." Downstairs, my brother lives above."
Bingchen's face turned red. Doesn't this... mean...
