"Strange." Lu Ping nodded as he listened to Zi Mu's introduction. As a storyteller, Lu Ping was definitely the type of listener that people didn't like. Although there would be some reaction from listening to the content, but it might not be too calm. A storyteller obviously hoped that the content of what he said could move the listener.
Luckily, Zi Mu wasn't a real storyteller, and was used to Lu Ping's dull attitude. He was already very satisfied that Lu Ping could reply.
"That's why!" He slapped his thigh, and cried out in surprise: "There's definitely something strange about the Big Dipper Peak's observatory!"
"How strange?" Lu Ping asked.
"This … there are many explanations." Zi Mu said vaguely. The storyteller on the bridge had fabricated many versions of this. The two of them were at the foot of Megrez Peak, and would soon ascend to the observatory. Zi Mu felt that it was better not to show off the content that would be exposed in the blink of an eye.
"Let's hurry up and go up first, they said that the newcomers have already gone." Zi Mu said. He had inquired about this, and said that the newcomers had all been summoned to the observatory.
The two of them hurried to the foot of Megrez Peak, and gradually ascended the mountain path. Looking up from here, one could tell that the saying that Megrez Peak was the lowest of the seven peaks of the Big Dipper wasn't false. The other six peaks were all hidden in the sea of clouds, and the height of Megrez Peak was obviously a bit lower.
In this way, the height needed to ascend the mountain was reduced by quite a bit. As the two of them ascended, they discovered that the layout of Megrez Peak was very different from the Alkaid and Alioth peaks they had been to before. Those two peaks both used the open space between the mountains as residences, and built houses. But starting from the foot of Megrez Peak, houses would occasionally appear between the mountains, unexpectedly unlike the other two peaks which had a unified plan.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and every house lit up with lanterns. As far as the eye could see, the entire Megrez Peak seemed to be filled with fireflies, with lanterns floating everywhere. And along with the lanterns was curling smoke. That scene. It didn't look like the peak of a cultivation academy at all. Instead, it looked more like a farmer's village where the sun was setting. Tens of thousands of lights were lit up and dinner was being cooked.
This joke. The storyteller didn't have it! Along the way, Zi Mu's horizons were broadened.
Just like that, the two of them walked to the end of the mountain path. At the peak of Megrez Peak, an enormous boulder was built up, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. A simple and unadorned stone platform that was more than ten meters tall appeared before the two of them.
"Stargazing Platform!" Zi Mu blurted out. The appearance of the North Style Academy's Stargazing Platform matched the storyteller's description.
Lu Ping stared blankly at the observatory. He subconsciously thought of the Soul-Pointing Platform in the City of Zhiling. The two stone platforms looked the same old and simple, but each gave off a different charm. After looking at the Star Observatory for a few more times, the impression of a village with a myriad of lights on Megrez Peak strangely vanished without a trace. He seemed to have subconsciously known who was the main character on this mountain.
"Let's go!" Zi Mu said at this time. Lu Ping nodded, and the two of them immediately came to the bottom of the Star Observatory. They saw two symmetrical stone stairs on the left and right, like two flying dragons, circling around the stone platform as they went up, adding some liveliness to the majestic stone platform.
Lu Ping and Zi Mu chose the stone stairs on the left, and went all the way up, finally arriving at the top of the platform. They saw that the newcomers had already arrived, and the platform was bustling with noise and excitement. There wasn't a trace of the solemnity that the two of them had imagined. The newcomers seemed to have become familiar with each other in these few days. Some were old acquaintances, and some were from the same academy. Some were from the same place, and some were of similar realms. In short, it could be seen that there were already countless small groups, chatting excitedly on the Star Observatory. No one stopped them.
And at the north end of the platform, there was another small platform. A person stood on it, looking towards the west. His face revealed a bit of reluctance, not knowing what he was reluctant to part with. But Zi Mu changed his angle. After seeing the seven Big Dipper stars on this person's back, as well as the brightest and most eye-catching Megrez star, he didn't dare to look anymore. He hurriedly pulled Lu Ping, who was beside him, and introduced, "Megrez star, Chen Jiu." He guessed that Lu Ping definitely didn't know.
As expected, Lu Ping nodded, not wasting Zi Mu's efforts. At this time, there were finally some newcomers who noticed the two people on the platform, and were slightly surprised.
The two of them had always been the talk of the town. Especially when all the newcomers came to Seven Stars Valley, and the two of them were called to Alkaid Peak. Although it was said that the two of them ate Ruan Qingzhu's rabbit and were called to be punished. But that was a punishment from the Seven Academicians! It wasn't easy for a mere newcomer to attract the attention of the Seven Academicians. Even if it was a punishment, they might be able to get some kind of opportunity. Therefore, there were those who rejoiced in their misfortune, but there were also many who were jealous. In many people's hearts, the Seven Academicians were unworthy of their association. To be able to leave a bad impression on the Seven Academicians was much better than having no impression at all.
But now, they saw the two of them on the observatory platform, each holding a rabbit. It was strange, but in the end, no one went up to ask.
At this time, the sun in the distance completely sank below the horizon, and night fell completely. Megrez star Chen Jiu, who was standing on the small platform, finally turned around to face the newcomers with melancholy. Very quickly, the people on the observatory platform came down.
In front of the Seven Academicians, normally, no one would dare to make such a ruckus. But previously, on the small platform, Chen Jiu instructed everyone to "do as you please," and went to watch the sunset. Who would dare to disobey the Seven Academicians' words? Therefore, they did as they pleased, which resulted in the bustling scene on the observatory platform. Seeing that Chen Jiu had turned around, and his expression didn't look too good, they immediately quietened down and listened to the new instructions of the Academicians.
Chen Jiu stood on the platform, and said listlessly, "Everyone is here." His first disciple, Jin Qi, was still following behind him, and could only smile bitterly. His teacher was just like that. He was addicted to sunlight. Every day after the sun went down, he would immediately become very unwell.
"Teacher, why don't I do it!" Jin Qi said as he stepped forward.
"Come." Chen Jiu only replied with one word, and looked like he was too lazy to speak.
Jin Qi bowed, and let Chen Jiu stand behind him, before walking forward.
"Everyone." He pulled himself together as he spoke, and his gaze swept across the corner of the platform. He also saw Lu Ping and Zi Mu, who had just come up, and were still in a daze with the rabbit in their hands.
"Those two." Jin Qi frowned slightly, "Why did you bring the rabbit up to the observatory platform?"
"Rabbit?" Before Lu Ping and Zi Mu could answer, Chen Jiu, who had just retreated, suddenly shot forward. Originally, after nightfall, he looked as if he had nothing to live for, but now, he actually had some enthusiasm.
"Yes! Who allowed you to bring the rabbit up to the observatory platform? Confiscate it! "Chen Jiu said.
Lu Ping and Zi Mu did not have time to answer Jin Qi. They did not expect that Academician Seven would actually rush up to confiscate the rabbit. Zi Mu was already dumbfounded. In the end, Lu Ping was still calm, and truthfully said, "Academician Ruan asked us to take care of this rabbit for a month. Then we will return it to her. If we can't bring it up to the platform, where should we put it first? It can't run away. "
"Put it here first." Chen Jiu said, and was about to jump down from the small platform. Jin Qi, who was beside him, hurriedly pulled him back, "Teacher, teacher …"
He stopped them. At the same time, he shouted to the people below the platform, "Someone come, take care of their rabbit first."
When Lu Ping and Zi Mu came up to the platform, they did not see anyone around. But after Jin Qi shouted, suddenly, there was an extra person behind them.
"How to take care of it?" When this person spoke, Zi Mu was shocked. Lu Ping, on the other hand, had already sensed it, so he was relatively calm.
On the small platform, Chen Jiu gave him a fierce look, while Jin Qi, who was beside him, held his forehead and waved his hand, "Take good care of it, and then return it to them."
His meaning was clear. That Megrez disciple nodded. He actually ignored Chen Jiu's look, and after taking the rabbit from Lu Ping and Zi Mu's hands, he disappeared again.
This baffling interlude caused everyone to be dumbstruck. They could not understand the division of power on Megrez Peak. Head disciple Jin Qi's words seemed to be more effective than Megrez Star Chen Jiu's? But seeing Jin Qi respectfully and respectfully waiting for Chen Jiu to dejectedly retreat to the side, it made people feel extremely awkward.
When Chen Jiu retreated, Jin Qi once again stood in front of everyone, and continued to speak.
"Next, everyone please listen to my arrangements."
"Everyone stand separately, front, back, left, right, maintain the exact same distance. Pay attention to your feet, it should be very easy to find traces."
Everyone lowered their heads. Previously, no one felt that there was anything special under their feet. Now that they heard the reminder and looked again, they really did see the traces in the next moment. Everyone stood together, maintaining a distance between them.
The newcomers quickly stood apart. Lu Ping and Zi Mu naturally stood at the furthest corner.
"Next, pay attention, don't move your feet, don't talk to each other, and don't try to use your abilities to transmit information. Everyone guard your own position." Jin Qi's expression was solemn. Looking at everyone, until everyone was ready.
"Everyone, please raise your head." Jin Qi suddenly waved his hand, pointing towards the sky.
Soul power!
The sensitive Lu Ping immediately sensed that there was actually the sound of soul power coming from above. The sound was very weak, but it was incomparably noisy. Lu Ping's state of mind was almost destroyed at this moment. Fortunately, these soul powers were only floating, and did not have any change or intention. They seemed to be very far away, but Lu Ping could sense that they were not the same, and there were even some that were clearly strong and weak. And those that were concentrated in the sky …
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven!
There were seven soul powers that crushed the other souls. The sound that was produced when they gathered together was the strongest and most unique sound that Lu Ping had ever heard. And when he concentrated on sensing these seven soul powers, his Soul Listening was actually disturbed and was repeatedly blocked.
Lu Ping was already used to using listening to make a judgment, but at this moment, he finally could not help but raise his head to look.
Starry sky!
When he raised his head to look, the pitch-black curtain of night had actually changed into a resplendent starry sky after Jin Qi's words. Right above his head, in the middle of the starry sky, the Big Dipper was bright and dazzling. It was surrounded by other stars, densely covering the entire sky.
"What you are seeing is the North Style Academy's Star Fate Chart, which is also known as the Seven Star Ranking." Jin Qi said while looking at the starry sky.
"On the day you joined the North Style Academy, your Star Fate was already lit up in the chart."
"And what you need to do now is to sense your own star, guide the star into your life, and become one with the light."
