(Sorry for posting a bit late, I have been quite busy recently, so please understand!)
Two years ago.
In the royal family of the Hongyu Empire, in a luxurious courtyard adjacent to the emperor's palace, Dai Xin, a strong man in the immortal realm and the guardian elder, was pacing in the hall with deep thoughts.
These years have been rare and peaceful years for the Hongyu Empire. With the strong men of the Holy Domain and many immortals sitting in charge, the powerful Hongyu Empire has forgotten the war. The country is rich and the people are strong, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
Apart from cultivating and pursuing the holy realm so far away, this Protector Elder originally had no other worries. However, in recent days, there have been some unusual movements in the empire, which made him uneasy.
"Report! Elder, the chief steward of the Royal Academy wants to see you!"
"Huh? Mr. Zuo, what's he doing here? You're welcome!" Elder Dai's eyes flashed slightly, he stroked his beard with one hand for a moment and then shouted loudly.
The Royal Academy is the pride of the Hongyu Empire, one of the strongest academies in the continent. Countless outstanding disciples have continuously come out of this academy, contributing to the empire's national defense generation after generation. Even Elder Dai himself, after his breakthrough to
Before immortality, he had taught in the academy.
Precisely because of the strength of this college, in order to keep it firmly in its hands, the royal family did not set up the position of dean. Instead, the royal family personally arranged stewards to take charge of the overall situation of the college.
Manager Zuo is the new General Manager who has just taken office. When a new official takes office, he always has to show his prestige. Manager Zuo has recently been searching for and selecting talented disciples throughout the empire, hoping to inject fresh blood into the academy.
But he obviously went too far. Recently, many complaints have reached Elder Dai's ears. It is said that this left steward is bullying others and forcibly poaching people from academies in other small cities in the empire. But after all, the status of the Royal Academy is there.
Many small colleges dare to be angry but dare not speak out, and can only rely on their connections to complain to the royal family in private.
Elder Dai himself is not a disciple of the Royal Academy. He was born in Hongxi Academy, a monastic academy in a medium-sized city in the west of Hongyu Empire. Not long ago, he received a letter of complaint from the dean of the academy, saying that General Manager Zuo went to Hongxi Academy to forcefully poach
The two genius disciples left and wanted to ask Elder Dai to make the decision for the college in terms of their relationship with each other. Before he had time to ask about this matter, he didn't expect that General Manager Zuo actually came to the door himself.
"Mr. Zuo, how are you? I heard that you have been busy lately. Why do you have time to come to my place?" Seeing a fat middle-aged man dressed as a scholar walking in quickly, Dai Xin asked with a sneer.
road.
According to the official positions in the empire, the director of the Royal Academy and the elder protecting the country are considered to be at the same level, but elder Dai has no intention of giving him much face.
"Hey, Elder Dai is really joking. Zuo is just doing his best. How dare you call him the master of all things." Manager Zuo looked like a good old man, smiling and narrowing his eyes, "I'm here to see you this time.
Elder, it's because of a new disciple!" As he said that, he made a big move and wrapped the two of them with a spiritual shield. It seemed to be an extremely cautious posture. This General Manager Zuo was actually a strong man in the immortal realm!
"New disciple?" Dai Xin said angrily, "Could it be that Director Zuo has forcefully recruited a disciple from another academy, causing controversy? These household matters should not have happened in the first place. Director Zuo is so close to the Royal Academy.
If the big tree doesn't give the small college below a way to survive, the old man won't be able to solve whatever trouble it causes! Please do as you please!"
"The elder's words are serious! These are all students' voluntariness, there is no such thing as forced recruitment!" Manager Zuo's expression changed, as if he was really innocent, "Elder Dai must not listen to slander!"
"Hmph! I heard that I could go to the Royal Academy, which disciple would refuse?" Dai Xin snorted again, his expression extremely ugly.
"This... let's not talk about it for now, I will just mention it, and the elders will know the seriousness of the matter!" Manager Zuo said with a serious expression, "Have you ever heard of Jue Tian Spirit Body?"
"What?!" As soon as Mr. Zuo finished speaking, Dai Xin stood up with a whoosh, "Juetian Spirit? Have you found such a disciple?! Where is he? Take me there quickly!"
"Hey, elder, don't worry, let me speak slowly!"
"Slowly talk nonsense!" Elder Dai's beard was almost crooked with anxiety. The calm and unhurried expression just now was swept away, and he shouted loudly, "Do you know what Juetian Spiritual Body means? If someone were to
If you seize the body, can you bear the loss? Where is that disciple? Have you sent a garrison to protect him? Who else knows about this matter?"
"Elder, apart from you and me, no third party knows about this matter. Even the disciple himself has no idea at all!" Director Zuo said seriously, "This is so powerful, I know it best!"
"Are you sure? The recent period has not been peaceful!" Elder Dai stared at the person in front of him, "A few days ago, I heard from the old guy Green Soul in the capital that an organization called the 'Devil Hunting Group' robbed
Fenghai Demon Sealed Prison, and he also discovered space fluctuations near the Demon Sealed Sea Area. It is said that someone has been introduced to the Demon World! I didn't pay much attention to these things at first, but now you say that the 'Jue Tian Spirit Body' has appeared.
Disciple, how can I not be worried?!"
"I don't know about these things," Manager Zuo was startled. "So many things happened in the capital? But it shouldn't have anything to do with me as a disciple. Elder Dai will know this after he comes with me!"
"Huh?" Elder Dai, who was still impatient at first, suddenly changed his expression when he heard what he said, and sneered, "General Manager Zuo, I'm afraid it's not that simple? What else is General Manager hiding from me? Please tell me!"
"What are you talking about, Elder Dai? How could Zuo be deceiving such a big matter as Juetian Spiritual Body?" General Manager Zuo paused and said anxiously.
"Hmph! Juetian Spiritual Body is uniquely endowed with cultivation, and its secret attribute talent, 'Nirvana', is even more amazingly powerful. The most important thing is that people with Juetian Spiritual Body can have their bodies taken away once in their lives. After taking away their bodies, their physical constitution will
It will also be assimilated with the innate attributes of the person who seizes the body, greatly increasing the strength of the person who seizes the body! This spirit body was born to make wedding clothes for others! If you get such a good treasure, you will easily take it out and share it with others.
Do I share it?”
"This... Since Elder Dai is so aware of the wonderful functions of this spirit body, Zuo might as well tell him directly." Manager Zuo was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "To be honest, this boy's name is Zhang Lingfeng, and he is a twelve-year-old boy.
.After confirming that he was a Jue Tian spirit body, Zuo was indeed greedy and wanted to guide him in his cultivation privately, and then take his body and replace him after he had grown to a certain level."
"But just after I brought him into my secret room, I had the same strange dream for three consecutive days, and every time I had it, my whole body's holy power would be completely empty. It took me a whole morning on the second day.
Make up for it!" As he said that, Manager Zuo showed a look of lingering fear.)
