When the elders heard this, they were all puzzled.
According to the original intention of the Academy Patriarch, he should have taken Su Zimo in as a personal disciple directly. Why did he become an in-name disciple at the last minute?
The elders naturally did not know what happened during this period that caused the Academy Patriarch to change his mind.
The Grand Elder's expression changed as he looked at Old Xuan on the altar thoughtfully.
"Su Zimo."
The Academy Patriarch had a gentle expression as he looked at Su Zimo with a smile. "Are you willing to be my in-name disciple temporarily?"
"I'm willing."
Su Zimo bowed and replied in a deep voice.
Although he was only an in-name disciple, there were no disadvantages for him to be able to become the disciple of the Academy Patriarch and he had no reason to refuse.
Many cultivators present revealed deep envy in their eyes.
Even if he was just an in-name disciple, his status far surpassed that of an inner sect disciple!
This was the in-name disciple of the Academy Patriarch. As long as nothing unexpected happened, he would definitely become the Patriarch's personal disciple in the future!
At that moment, Tang Peng had already woken up and was unable to accept the scene before him.
He did not expect that he had merely fallen from the Dao Heart Stairs and fainted.
By the time he woke up, the Heaven Immortal who had just entered the inner sect had already soared into the sky and his status was even above his!
The flow of fate seemed mysterious and cruel at this moment.
"Senior Brother Fang, how could this be?"
Tang Peng was still in disbelief as he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "How did this person jump above us?"
"Don't panic, don't panic!"
Fang Qingyun's expression was calm as he sent a voice transmission. "This Su Zimo is only an in-name disciple and not a true personal disciple. We still have a chance!"
Right at that moment, the Academy Patriarch retracted his smile and looked around. Every disciple of the academy had a feeling that the Patriarch was looking at them.
"Everyone of Qiankun Academy, listen up."
The Patriarch of the Academy said slowly, "What happened today is about the Taoist Heart Ladder and Su Zimo's nominal disciple. Without my permission, no one is allowed to spread it out!"
"Those who intentionally leak the information will be punished with the same crime as those who harm their fellow disciples. Kill without mercy!"
Ever since the Patriarch of the Academy showed up, he had always been gentle and polite. He even smiled from time to time, giving people a feeling of closeness.
But now, after the Patriarch of the Academy said those words, his body exuded a kind of pressure and killing intent that belonged to a superior!
Not to mention the disciples present, even the nine elders' expressions turned cold.
Fang Qingyun's expression froze, and his face turned ugly.
Initially, he was still thinking about how he could turn the tables and scheme against Su Zimo.
But now, the words of the Patriarch of the Academy caused his heart to tremble, and all the thoughts from before vanished instantly!
Fang Qingyun even had an illusion that the Patriarch of the Academy had seen through his thoughts and that his words were a warning to him!
"Patriarch, what is the meaning of this?"
Liu Ping couldn't help but ask.
"If news of what happened today were to spread, it would definitely cause a huge commotion in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain."
Elder Zhong explained, "At that time, countless gazes and the attention of countless people will converge on Su Zimo. This is equivalent to pushing Su Zimo to the cusp of the storm!"
"In that position, who knows how much danger and hostility he will have to endure."
"Now, the Patriarch of the Academy forbids the people of the Academy from spreading this matter. It is actually a form of protection for Su Zimo."
Liu Ping nodded while seeming to understand.
Princess Chi Hong frowned and asked, "But the matter today caused such a huge commotion, and so many people of the Universe Academy witnessed it with their own eyes. Even if someone intentionally leaked it, how would we know who did it?"
"Haha, this is the strength of the Patriarch."
Elder Zhong smiled and said, "He has supreme wisdom and can see through the secrets of the Heavens. He is omniscient. Who has the confidence to hide from the Patriarch's senses and risk being killed to leak this matter?"
"Moreover, even if one or two people leaked it, others would definitely not believe it."
"A Stage One Heaven Immortal passed the nine-step Dao Heart Staircase trial and even created the tenth step. He was accepted as an in-name disciple by the Patriarch of the Academy. If we did not witness it with our own eyes, who would believe it?"
Princess Chi Hong and Liu Ping hurriedly nodded and felt deeply moved.
Even though they had witnessed it with their own eyes, an extremely unreal feeling arose in their hearts and did not dissipate for a long time.
"Everyone, you may leave. Su Zimo, stay behind."
The Patriarch of the Academy said plainly.
The nine elders retreated at the first moment. Their figures all disappeared into the void. Their methods were astonishing.
The other cultivators also left quickly. Not long after, only the Patriarch of the Academy, Elder Xuan, and Su Zimo were left on the altar.
"You can understand my intentions, right?"
The Patriarch of the Academy looked at Su Zimo and asked gently.
Su Zimo hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind."
The Patriarch of the Academy said, "Your current cultivation realm is too low. It won't do you any good if this matter is spread."
"When your cultivation realm is enough to withstand all of this, I will naturally announce this matter to the public."
Su Zimo said, "I understand."
The Patriarch of the Academy nodded slightly and continued, "Since you are an in-name disciple, you should first train in the inner sect. Of course, if you have any doubts about your cultivation, you can look for me anytime. "
"You can look for me too!"
Elder Xuan suddenly interrupted from the side.
Su Zimo was slightly stunned.
Elder Xuan was only an old man guarding the secret pavilion. This action seemed to be a little overboard and inappropriate.
However, Su Zimo saw that the Patriarch of the Academy's expression was normal and did not have any intention of reprimanding him. He could not help but mutter in his heart.
Su Zimo did have one doubt about his cultivation.
It was the strange runes of more than six hundred words in the "Yin Yang Talisman Scripture".
These runes were very similar to the runes on the Steps of Wisdom on the Dao Heart Ladder.
Su Zimo was almost certain that the Patriarch of the Academy definitely recognized these strange runes and could solve his doubts.
However, the "Yin Yang Talisman Scripture" originated from the Taiyi Horsetail Whisk, and the Taiyi Horsetail Whisk originated from the real body of Qinglian.
Su Zimo was worried that the "Yin Yang Talisman Scripture" would contain some information about the creation of Qinglian and expose the existence of the real body of Qinglian!
Although he was already a disciple of the Patriarch of the Academy, Su Zimo was still in the Upper World. Out of caution, he did not take this risk.
"Hey!"
Old Xuan glanced sideways at the Patriarch of the Academy and raised his brows. "An in-name disciple is still a disciple. No matter what, you have to give him a gift!"
The Patriarch of the Academy pondered for a moment and smiled. Suddenly, a small jade token appeared in his hand.
The token was engraved with a few exquisite patterns.
When Old Xuan saw the token, he nodded in a rare manner and urged Su Zimo, "This is not bad. Hurry and accept it. It can save your life at a critical moment."
"This is a teleportation jade token."
The Patriarch of the Academy said, "As long as you're in the Heaven realm, no matter where you are, as long as you encounter danger that you can't resist, crush this token and you will be able to return to Qiankun Academy at any time."
This teleportation jade token was equivalent to the Major Transference Talisman of Tianhuang Mainland.
However, in the Upper World, only Immortal Kings whose cultivation had reached the Grotto-Heaven realm had the ability to travel freely in the void!
In that case, this teleportation jade token was indeed a life-saving jade token.
It was extremely difficult to refine such a teleportation jade token.
Generally speaking, only the most prized and favored successor disciples of Immortal Kings would be able to obtain one.
