Chapter 357 The Revival of the Divine Forbidden Artifact
Li Nanyin looked up and saw a towering figure appear in the night sky. It was not clear, but it was very majestic. The martial arts aura emanating from its body was enough to shake the heavens and earth, making people look up in awe.
"It's the principal!"
"The principal even came!"
The instructors and students exclaimed in surprise.
The professors also lowered their heads, their expressions respectful.
Jiang Yuan looked up, his eyes narrowing slightly, and guessed the identity of the person who had come.
Hong Tian, the current president of Kunlun College.
He had already reached the Quasi-King realm fifty years ago, and was a highly renowned overlord of his time.
It's just that the battle with the Abyss in his early years left him with a hidden injury, which stopped him here. He was unable to make a strong leap to break through the shackles and reach the realm of the king, which still makes many people feel regretful.
Otherwise, he would probably have become one of the nine kings of the Great Xia Dynasty long ago.
Although he failed to reach the King realm, he was definitely among the top tier in the Quasi-King realm, and could be considered one of the strongest below the King level.
It is also because of his presence that Kunlun Academy has been able to reach its current level.
Many martial arts techniques, such as "Nine Hands to Shake the Heavens" and "Hongwu Collapse Fist," were created by him. It can be said that he was extremely talented in the field of martial arts.
He was also Cao Xi's teacher.
"It's just a legendary piece of equipment. Kunlun Academy accepts this bet."
As Hong Tian spoke, he raised his right hand, and a bright moon appeared in his palm.
To be precise, it was a bright, shining ball of light like a new moon, with a mirror suspended inside. It looked extremely soft, yet it exuded a powerful and terrifying aura, as if a beam of moonlight could pierce through the heavens.
"If you win, you may take this item with you."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Principal Hong is very generous. Then I won't stand on ceremony."
"You talk as if you're guaranteed to win..."
Bai Mo emerged from the pit, clutching his injured left arm.
The old man was still indignant.
"Since it's a bet, you should at least put up your own stake. You're not trying to get something for nothing..."
He hadn't finished speaking.
A flash of black and red light appeared in Jiang Yuan's hand, and the [Heavenly Curse Blood Flag] appeared in his hand. He held it with one hand, and terrifying blood-red curse power gushed out from the flag, as if a sea of blood was flowing, causing the surrounding instructors to change their expressions drastically.
Even in its dormant state, the power of this legendary weapon is still beyond what the fourth, fifth, and even third-tier students present can withstand.
Some people were so shocked by the evil aura that they collapsed to the ground, while most others were pale and had cold hands and feet.
"Is this enough?"
Jiang Yuan put away the [Heavenly Curse Blood Flag], and the mentors around him, including Qin Longyao, immediately felt a sense of relief and their pressure decreased.
Bai Mo had nothing to say.
Hong Tian spoke again, but his expression remained calm and composed.
"Since you've come from afar, Professor Jiang and everyone from Shenwu Academy are welcome to tour the place on your own."
After saying that, he left.
"I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's match."
After saying this to Jiang Yuan with a smile, Cao Xi turned and left.
After the professors left.
Qin Longyao looked at Jiang Yuan and lowered her voice, "Are you really going to fight?"
Why not take the legendary equipment that's offered to you?
"...You're really too confident. Professor Cao isn't so easy to deal with. No one has ever seen him at full strength."
"That's the same as me." Jiang Yuan stretched and said casually, "I hope he can please me a little."
"..."
"It's getting late, I'm heading back now. See you tomorrow," Jiang Yuan said, yawning.
Before Qin Longyao could react, he had vanished from the spot without warning.
……
Return to where you live.
Jiang Yuan soaked in the vast spiritual hot spring and took out the two treasures he had obtained that night.
【Star-Eating Insect】(Mutation) (Egg) (Legend) (To be hatched)
【Mysterious Green Vine】(Origin Unknown) (Forged with Divine Gold)...
"Master, what is this? I sense a rich life force. Is it food for Lanlan?"
The Void Divine Fish, Lanlan, swam around Jiang Yuan, its eyes curiously fixed on the [Mutated Star-Eating Insect Egg] in his hand.
After becoming a seventh-tier divine beast, it gained the ability to speak human language, its tone as childish as that of a three-year-old child.
"This isn't for you to eat. These are Star-Eating Insect eggs, your future little brother. Once they grow to their full form, they will have strength comparable to a king."
"Little brother...?" Lanlan tilted her head.
Jiang Yuan laughed and said, "To be precise, it's the third brother, and there's also a Ghost-Faced Immortal Burial Flower."
The Ghost-Faced Immortal-Burying Flower swayed slightly, conveying its dissatisfaction, as if to say that it was the boss.
The Star-Eating Insect Egg, sensing the divine aura emanating from the Void God Fish and the Ghost-Faced Burial Flower, instinctively trembled, as if in fear.
"It will still take some time before it hatches. Let's form a contract first..."
Jiang Yuan squeezed out a drop of blood and dripped it onto the insect egg. Then, he used the contract technique of the Ghost-Faced Immortal-Burying Flower to turn it into his third ferocious pet.
After doing all this.
Jiang Yuan put away the Star-Eating Insect Eggs and turned his gaze to the withered, copper-green vines, his eyes gleaming.
"This item is extraordinary!"
"It involves forbidden artifacts of the gods."
"It's probably related to ancient times, incredibly ancient."
"It's a pity that its spirituality has been completely lost. I wonder if using the [Hand of Miracles] can trigger a miracle to restore it..."
Jiang Yuan attempted to use the "Miracle Hand" to emulate the resurrection of the Ghost-Faced Immortal Flower, but this time the miracle did not occur.
It seemed to be blocked by a force of a higher level...
That power seemed to originate from the divine...
Jiang Yuan was deeply shaken.
It wasn't that the "Hand of Miracles" failed, but rather that the power he was currently wielding was insufficient to shake or influence things of that level.
hum!
The withered vine, covered in verdigris, shuddered, emitting a faint green glow, and then turned into countless copper dust particles, decaying and withering away.
A scene suddenly flashed into Jiang Yuan's mind.
On the ancient Blue Star, a mountain stretches across the starry sky. On the summit, a gourd grows from copper-green vines. Beneath the vines, a Taoist priest sits cross-legged. In the distant cosmic sky, a colossal dragon stretching for tens of thousands of miles soars. A blurry figure with twelve wings stands on the moon, gazing directly at the Blue Star, facing the Taoist priest from afar.
Beside him was a newly planted lightning willow tree...
The light and shadow flashed by in an instant.
"That is..."
Before Jiang Yuan could even process his surprise, the divine artifact within his body—the Blade of Blind Fools—suddenly trembled and burst forth, absorbing all the scattered copper shavings around him.
A strange rune appeared on the gray blade shrouded in mist.
Jiang Yuan was connected to it by soul, and immediately realized what had happened, a look of surprise appearing in his eyes.
The Blade of Blind Fools has absorbed a large amount of divine metal and recovered some of its power, enough to unleash a full-scale attack!
A devastating blow from a divine artifact.
Even a demigod would find it difficult to withstand, right?
