Xu Zii pondered for a mont, then said with a smile, "It seems that your Heavenly Dao Academy really doesn’t have what I want."
His purpose for coming to the Heavenly Dao Academy was for the Nine-Bend Godly Flas, and now he was helping to guard the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.
The Divine Fire was surely in his grasp.
As for other things, unless there was sothing that would greatly increase his strength in the Heaven Beyond Heavens, they were not very significant.
"What do you an ’your Heavenly Dao Academy’? You’re a part of it too, rember to have a sense of honor and disgrace," the girl in the white dress retorted with a cold huff.
"You surely have a way, right? Don’t even think about the True Martial Holy Sect," Xu Zii said.
In truth, everyone was well aware that the Heavenly Dao Academy must have had a thod to deal with the Heavenly Cang Demon Roc.
But the cost of that thod was another story.
Otherwise, why would they have waited until the Heavenly Cang Demon Roc had erged? They would have left long ago.
To knowingly undertake an impossible task!
"I won’t hide it from you. Before the ten Ancestral Masters left, they also prepared a way to deal with the Heavenly Cang Demon Roc, just in case," the girl in the white dress said, nodding her head.
"This is connected to the origin of the Heavenly Cang Demon Roc."
Xu Zii listened quietly and did not interrupt.
"Legend has it that a long ti ago, there was a Golden-Winged Roc in the world.
This Golden-Winged Roc ate dragons and python snakes daily and was extrely powerful.
It lived for countless years, until one day its life ca to an end.
The Golden-Winged Roc refused to perish and, after soaring up and down seven tis, it finally ascended the mythical Vajra Wheel Mountain.
However, by that ti, its body had completely combusted, leaving behind only a Beast Primordial Glazed Heart.
By a fortuitous twist of fate, this Beast Primordial Glazed Heart rged with the Nine Heavens Sha Qi suppressed by Vajra Wheel Mountain, giving birth to the Heavenly Cang Demon Roc."
"Wait, the Nine Heavens Sha Qi?" Xu Zii frowned slightly as he asked.
He naturally understood how formidable this Qi was.
There were once Three Energies between heaven and earth, one of which was Spiritual Energy.
It was the initial Spiritual Energy essential for the cultivation of all beings.
There was also Evil Qi and Mysterious Qi.
Of course, so people preferred to call Mysterious Qi, Pure Energy.
According to legend, these were the three strongest energies born at the beginning of the separation of the Yuan Central Continent’s world.
Mysterious Qi surged to the heavens, Evil Qi fell to the earth, and Spiritual Energy spread far and wide among the people.
"That’s right. After the Nine Heavens Sha Qi rged with the Beast Primordial Glazed Heart, it broke through its chains and reached the Nirvana Realm," the girl in the white dress said.
"These are things the Ancestral Masters told , whether they’re true or not, I have no way of knowing."
"What do you an by ’the way’?" Xu Zii asked, nodding his head.
"It’s still about these Three Energies. Legend has it that Spiritual Energy is neutral and suitable for the cultivation of all things without conflict.
But between Mysterious Qi and Evil Qi, they are naturally adversaries, much like fire and water, mutually restraining each other," the girl in the white dress explained.
"The Ancestral Masters left secrets saying that we could use Nine Heavens Mysterious Qi to suppress the Heavenly Cang Demon Roc and then reseal it.
If soone in the Nirvana Realm were to assist, it might even be possible to kill it.
However, we currently lack soone in the Nirvana Realm on our side, so sealing it would suffice."
"It seems you are already prepared," Xu Zii said.
"But I’m not very confident, so I will still need your help when the ti cos," the girl in the white dress stated.
Xu Zii thought for a while. He was guarding the Myriad Treasures Pavilion as part of the deal to acquire the Nine-Bend Godly Flas, which hardly counted as helping.
After all, he was now a student of the Heavenly Dao Academy, and he had also found the Pen of Life and Death here.
Helping out wasn’t really much to ask.
"Alright," he nodded slightly.
"Before we suppress the Heavenly Cang Demon Roc, let’s clean up the academy first," the woman in the white dress said with a smile.
"One person takes on two?" Xu Zii replied.
"Ancestor Aolong and Nine Suns Loose Man are yours to deal with; I’ll take on Thunder Dazzle Ancestor and Heaven Burning War General," the woman in the white dress declared.
Then she and Xu Zii headed in two different directions.
Xu Zii surveyed the surroundings and quickly got his bearings.
The location of Ancestor Aolong should be in the Glazed Glass Palace, where he was fiercely fighting with Venerable Ming.
When he arrived, gliding through the air, he found the place had evidently been through a bloody battle.
The losses suffered by the Heavenly Dao Academy this ti were probably incalculable.
Apart from the Glazed Glass Palace still standing on the ground, everything else around it had been annihilated into the void.
A desolate scene, with ruins and broken walls.
And the roaring of dragons was still audible not far away.
At this mont, to the north of the Glazed Glass Palace, countless snakes surrounded a purple Thunder Dragon.
Although there were many snakes, they were still far weaker in strength.
Thunderbolts shot straight up to the sky, transforming the rolling thunderclouds overhead.
Endless lightning cleaved through the heavens and the earth, annihilating all the surrounding snakes in the furious thunderbolts.
"Venerable Ming, once I’ve eradicated these vermilion snakes, your doom will follow," the Thunder Dragon spoke in human tongue, its voice laden with the intent to kill.
"If I can make one last contribution for the academy before I die, my life will not have been in vain; it’s worth it," Venerable Ming said with a light laugh.
Even in the face of life and death, he remained as calm as still water, joking and laughing.
This ti, the Old Masters of the academy had all gone to suppress the Heavenly Cang Demon Roc, and they had to fight for as much ti as possible.
The vermilion snakes were nothing but a manifestation of his Spiritual Energy, which now was being depleted endlessly by Ancestor Aolong’s relentless slaughter.
His body’s Spiritual Energy was exhausted, and it was nearly impossible for him to manifest more snakes.
If one were to look closely, they would notice his complexion was slightly pale, with even sweat trickling down his forehead.
Behind him, the True Fate Vermilion Snake coiled.
The number of spreading vermilion snakes around him was dwindling, and even the True Fate was starting to blur.
"Now is the ti," Ancestor Aolong suddenly roared aloud.
Seizing a mistake, his long, winding body instantly transford into a thunderbolt.
It pierced through layers of space, rushing towards Venerable Ming’s abdon.
The speed of the thunderbolt was too fast for the naked eye to see, and Venerable Ming had no ti left to dodge.
Just as the Thunder Dragon was about to strike him, a sudden explosion roared in front of him.
Dust filled the torn space before him, the remnants of the thunderbolt remained, with occasional flashes of purple sparks passing by.
With resignation in his heart, Venerable Ming slowly lowered his head.
He saw a hand appeared in front of him at so point, blocking the massive dragon claw that was hurtling towards him.
Although the hand was less than a tenth the size of the dragon claw, the power it contained was awe-inspiring.
Then, with only a slight exertion of force, the hand smashed forward, a dragon cry echoed, and the Thunder Dragon’s enormous body was sent flying back.
Venerable Ming swallowed and looked up, only to see Xu Zii’s figure approaching him.
"Take a rest. I’ll take it from here," Xu Zii said, shaking off his arm with a smile.
"You...," Venerable Ming started to say sothing but didn’t know what to say.
"Be careful."
Eventually, he stood to one side, starting to recover and regulate his breath.
At that mont, he had no strength left and no desire to show off anymore.
"Who are you?" the Thunder Dragon, with its massive body, looked over again and asked.
