Chapter 5189 Divine Weapon Pavilion
After this matter was settled, the academy was shrouded in a deathly atmosphere. Many lives had been lost, and countless people were still paralyzed with fear.
No one had expected those virtuous and prestigious elders of the academy to have committed so many vile acts. Before Long Chen arrived, the first academy seemed like a shiny apple. But after his arrival, it was as if the apple had been cleanly sliced open, revealing countless disgusting maggots hidden beneath its beautiful exterior.
Although the offenders were punished, the surviving elders of the first academy were left in a heavy mood. After all, Long Chens methods were terrifyingly domineering and bloody.
On the other hand, the youngsters were won over by Long Chens decisive methods. It was their first time seeing someone so terrifying from the same generation as them. Unlike the old-timers, their thinking was simplethey respected strength. Hence, they directly idolized him and strived to be like him.
Every person wanted to become a true expert, and today, they found that Long Chens image suited the style of the peerless heavenly genius in their imagination. Their idolization of him far surpassed their fear of him.
Of course, the work was far from over. The people who were killed had been soulsearched to ensure no innocent lives were taken, but that didnt mean there werent some who slipped through the cracks. If their victims were already dead and there was no one left to report them, these perpetrators could easily escape justice.
Long Chen directly arranged for the Elders of the head academy to continue the investigation. The Dragonblood warriors remained on guard over the academy, preventing anyone from escaping.
Seeing that the situation was under control, the palace master directly returned to his seclusion. As for Bai Letian, with the seal in his hand, he could only thicken his face and continue according to Long Chens plan.
Long Chen then left with Lu Chengkong, along with Bai Shishi, Yu Qingxuan, Yue Zifeng, Xia Chen, and the other captain-level experts. There was an extremely well-hidden transportation formation within the academy that led directly to minor worlds.
Back then, to preserve power, the first academy had distributed their leftover resources throughout different minor worlds. After all, they couldnt afford to put all their eggs in one basket.
Through the transportation formation, they arrived at the High Firmament Treasure Pavilion. Long Chen, Bai Shishi, and Yu Qingxuan were all shocked.
The pavilion was as big as a city. When Long Chen and the others arrived at the city gates, they saw an elder sitting on a chair, leaning against the wall and dozing off.
When Long Chen saw the elder, his heart shook. The elders face was covered in wrinkles, and he looked incredibly old, but Long Chen could sense an Emperors aura from him. Although this fluctuation was extremely faint, it was unmistakably there, indicating that this person was at least a half-step Human Emperor. Moreover, the fact that he could suppress his aura to this extent meant his power far surpassed that of the two vice deans.
Yun Bo, wake up, Lu Chengkong carefully called out to the elder.
The elder was startled awake and drowsily looked at Lu Chengkong. After that, he casually took out a jade plate from his robes and tossed it to Lu Chengkong before resuming his nap.
Lu Chengkong seemed used to it and led them into the city with the jade plate. He placed the jade plate on the city gates, and countless runes lit up, causing the gates to slowly open.
As they walked in, Lu Chengkong apologetically said, Dean Long Chen, please dont be angry. Yun Bo cultivates the Soul Dream Heart Sutra. Sleeping is cultivation to him. Hes not trying to be rude to you.
Sleeping is cultivating? Theres such a cultivation technique? Bai Shishi was shocked. That kind of cultivation technique sounded amazingly effortless.
Its not too surprising. Doesnt Wilde rely on eating to cultivate? remarked Long Chen. Bai Shishi and Yu Qingxuan thought about it and nodded. Wilde never cultivated in the traditional sense; he just ate and slept, then slept and ate. Yet, his power continuously grew.
Lu Chengkong relaxed after seeing that Long Chen wasnt angry. He began to think that Long Chen was quite easy to get along with.
Feeling more at ease, Lu Chengkong continued, Yun Bos cultivation technique might seem nice, but its speed is incredibly slow. When I was still a youth, Yun Bo was already a half-step Human Emperor. Even after so many years, his cultivation base doesnt seem to have grown much at all.
Long Chen and the others laughed. If someone could rely on sleeping to rapidly increase their cultivation base, there would be no logic left in the world.
After passing through the passageway, they saw rows of giant buildings, different in size but perfectly lined up.
Divine Weapon Treasury.
Item Forging Pavilion.
Long Chen suddenly paused, noticing the two enormous buildings on the left and right with their imposing names written on them. The Divine Weapon Treasury, in particular, was exuding a terrifying murderous aura.
Guo Ran and Xia Chens heartbeats quickened. These two places posed a fatal attraction to them.
There must be some ferocious weapon in the Divine Weapon Treasury! said Long Chen, pointing. Yue Zifeng also nodded. After all, the murderous aura was incredibly strong. They could sense it even from outside the building.
Ive never been inside the Divine Weapon Treasury. If youre interested and not in a rush, we can take a look first, suggested Lu Chengkong.
Theres no rush. Lets take a look, said Long Chen.
Although Long Chen couldnt wait to see the final two volumes of the Nirvana Scripture, since he knew where they were, they wouldnt be able to run from him.
Lu Chengkong placed the jade plate on the gates, causing them to rumble as they slowly opened a crack. A sharp murderous aura immediately washed over them.
Other than Long Chen, everyone else involuntarily stepped back, overwhelmed by the murderous aura. As for Lu Chengkong, he had retreated so far away.
Clearly, despite being a Human Emperor, Lu Chengkong lacked the battlefield experience to withstand such a terrifying aura.
Dean Chengkong, why dont you wait for us here? Well be back soon, suggested Long Chen.
Many thanks for your understanding, Dean Long Chen, Lu Chengkong sighed in relief. This murderous aura was too much for him.
Long Chen nodded. Seeing that the gates only opened a bit, he pushed it open. A sharp aura instantly radiated out from within.
