People kept coming down the mountain. Some were in high spirits, while others were in low spirits. Many people were discussing the appearance of the demon serpents.
The teachers had already made the decision. Some people who had seen it with their own eyes wondered if they had seen it wrong. After all, the demon serpents looked like dragons.
Ye Futian saw a familiar figure walking down the mountain. Feng Qingxue's fiery red robe was dusty, but her pretty face was still clean and radiant. She seemed to be in a good mood as she chatted with Murong Qiu.
Seeing Feng Qingxue and Murong Qiu walking down the mountain, some people couldn't help but look at Ye Futian. Ye Futian was very annoyed.
Feng Qingxue noticed this as well. She saw Ye Futian, but she quickly looked away. She seemed to be avoiding eye contact with Ye Futian and stopped talking.
Murong Qiu, who was next to him, seemed to have noticed something. His eyes followed the path down and landed on Ye Futian. His handsome 17-year-old face was tinged with arrogance, and his smiling eyes seemed to be filled with disdain. He only glanced at Ye Futian for a moment, then looked away.
Ye Futian did not pay too much attention to him. He said to Yu Sheng, "If it really is a dragon, will the academy hide it?"
Yu Sheng thought for a moment, then nodded and said seriously, "Yes."
"Let's go up the mountain before it's completely cleared," Ye Futian said. He took a step forward and ran up the mountain.
Many people were shocked to see this. Feng Qingxue stood there in a daze. She stared at Ye Futian, who was running towards her. Had he been traumatized?
Seeing Ye Futian almost reach her, Feng Qingxue stared at him. Her lips moved slightly. She wanted to say something, but Ye Futian ran past her. It was obvious that he was not going for her.
Yu Sheng's sharp eyes glanced at Feng Qingxue and Murong Qiu, who was next to her.
"What are they doing?" Everyone realized that they had misunderstood. Why would Ye Futian and Yu Sheng go up the mountain at this time?
"Are they crazy? They didn't go before, but now that the demon serpent has appeared, everyone is going down the mountain. Why are they going up?" Many people did not understand. Ye Futian did not know either, but he really wanted to see the legendary dragon. The Freedom Meditation could benefit from observing animals. What would happen if he could see a dragon?
Yu Sheng also wanted to see what a dragon looked like.
The main road to the top of the mountain was blocked. Senior brothers from Qingzhou Academy were there to keep watch. They could only go down the mountain, not up. Fortunately, Ye Futian and Yu Sheng were mentally prepared. They did not go up the mountain but took a detour.
Along the way, there were checkpoints everywhere, and the more it was like this, the more curious the two of them became, and the more certain they were of the guess in their hearts.
On the mountain, in the forest, the two of them sneaked around. Yu Sheng asked, "It's hard to find them like this. Where should we go?"
"I'll go to the place with the most people on lockdown." Ye Futian's eyes lit up. Yu Sheng's eyes lit up and he continued to sneak in the direction with the most lockdown.
Time passed bit by bit. The sun set and night fell, making it easier for the two of them to move.
"It seems like there are fewer and fewer people here. We might have reached the core area. Let's wait here and try our luck." Ye Futian leaned against a large tree and closed his eyes to rest. As the night deepened, the area was strangely quiet. It was as if no demon beasts were active in this area.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed across the night sky, illuminating the dense forest as if it were daytime. At this moment, the people guarding this area all raised their heads, their eyes solemn.
Was it coming?
Rumble … Thunder rumbled and bolts of lightning appeared one after another, becoming more and more frequent. Seeing this strange scene, Ye Futian was a little excited, but also a little nervous.
"Dragon, it's really a dragon!" Someone exclaimed. Ye Futian jumped up from the ground and looked into the sky not far away. There, a giant dragon thousands of meters long circled and danced. In an instant, it disappeared and reappeared in another direction. The rumbling grew louder and louder, and the area turned into a world of thunder and lightning.
"Dragon." Yu Sheng stared at the sky, unable to use words to describe the shock he felt at the moment.
In the sky, figures of cultivators appeared one after another. Their bodies were surrounded by dazzling light, and the dharma on their backs was extremely mighty. They stood proudly like peerless cultivators.
In the sky above, a figure descended like lightning. This person was middle-aged and extremely handsome. Seeing him appear, many cultivators bowed slightly. It was obvious that this person was of extremely high status.
"This is not a dragon." The figure put his hands behind his back and looked up into the sky. His first words made everyone's hearts tremble.
"This is the shape of a dragon, the aura of a dragon. It was deliberately released here." The middle-aged man's eyes were extremely sharp. "To have such a dragon shape and aura, it must be from a real dragon. Who exactly has come to Mount Tianyao?"
"No wonder it only revealed its aura and no destructive power. If it was a real dragon, I'm afraid we would have been destroyed a long time ago," someone in the sky said.
"Even if it's not a real dragon, the appearance of a dragon in Qingzhou City is a blessing or a curse." The middle-aged man's eyes were full of spirit. He looked down and saw several youths in different directions. He could not help but whisper, "What bold fellows."
Below, Ye Futian and Yu Sheng were not the only ones who had snuck here. There were others who had not left either. Youths were always full of curiosity, especially when it came to legendary things.
"These little brats," a cultivator beside him cursed. They had already sealed off this area, but these little brats had still managed to sneak in.
At this moment, Ye Futian had no distractions. All he could see was the dragon in the sky. Sometimes the dragon swung its tail, sometimes the dragon soared in the sky. The dragon could only see its head but not its tail. All these scenes continuously impacted his heart.
He activated Freedom Meditation. Endless lightning seemed to appear in his Life Palace, as well as the dragon's shadow.
Terrifying lightning Spiritual Qi gathered around him. Bolts of lightning swam around his body. He felt like his consciousness was about to fall. All that was left in his eyes was the dragon.
Everything in front of him seemed to be carved into his mind.
A bolt of lightning suddenly descended and pierced into his brow. The violent dragon's shadow was imprinted in his eyes.
Whoosh … Terrifying lightning power swam around Ye Futian's body, causing his body to withstand the extremely overbearing power. He could not help but let out a low roar. At this moment, he could not break free from this state. The dragon's aura was actually carved into his mind.
The dragon swung its tail. He saw the incomparably majestic dragon pouncing towards him. At this moment, Ye Futian's body trembled slightly, but he was unable to move an inch.
"Watch out!" Yu Sheng seemed to feel something. He roared, but it was too late. The terrifying dragon's shadow rushed into Ye Futian's brow. Ye Futian let out a terrible roar. It was as if a real dragon was rapidly drilling into his mind with endless lightning.
Boom. His mind shook violently. Ye Futian's consciousness gradually dissipated.
"You've finally grown up." A voice rang out in Ye Futian's mind. His body fell down stiffly. At the same time, the vision in the area disappeared.
"What happened?" The strong cultivators in the sky flashed over. They stared at Ye Futian. One of them cursed, "What just happened?"
"That unlucky guy seems to have been attacked by the dragon's aura," someone said.
"He's too bold. Hurry up and see if he's alright."
"He's fine," the handsome middle-aged man walked over. Yu Sheng, who was beside Ye Futian, looked up at him. The middle-aged man said, "Leave him to me. I'll take him back to have a look."
"Alright." Everyone nodded. Yu Sheng looked at him and asked, "Senior, can I go with you?"
"Don't worry. He'll be fine. I'll be in the academy," the middle-aged man said to Yu Sheng. The middle-aged man said to Yu Sheng. There was a strange magic in his eyes that made people want to believe him. Yu Sheng nodded and said, "Thank you, senior."
…
Ye Futian opened his eyes. He felt no pain in his body. He couldn't help but be surprised.
His consciousness entered his Life Palace. Indeed, there was an area of lightning above the World Tree. A dragon was circling there, extremely majestic.
"I actually entered the Life Palace." Ye Futian's heart trembled. After fainting, he seemed to have heard something but couldn't remember.
Ever since he'd started cultivating, he'd fainted twice. Thinking of this, Ye Futian couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was really unlucky. Of course, if he could gain something twice every time he fainted, he wouldn't mind doing it a few more times.
As if feeling something, Ye Futian sat up abruptly. He realized that the clothes on him weren't his. This was obviously not the courtyard he lived in.
Standing up, Ye Futian pushed open the door and walked out. He saw that he was in a very quiet and elegant courtyard. There was a pavilion in front of him. There was a girl sitting there quietly, as if she was drawing. Beside her, there was a middle-aged man drinking tea elegantly. It was a very peaceful scene.
Gently walking to the side of the pavilion, his gaze fell on the place where the young girl was drawing. It was a special piece of paper, and the young girl was not drawing. Instead, she was continuously drawing some mystical lines, and there was a faint spiritual aura coming from it.
"This is a spell scroll." Ye Futian was a little surprised. The girl in front of him could actually carve spell scrolls?
If that was the case, wasn't she an inscriber? Wasn't that a little too monstrous?
"You've seen it before?" the handsome middle-aged man put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Ye Futian.
"No, but I've seen it in books," Ye Futian said. "She's carving a shield on this piece of paper. It's drawn with metal-elemental Spiritual Qi. It should be a defensive spell."
"You can see it?" The middle-aged man was a little surprised.
"Yes." Ye Futian nodded. The Freedom Meditation made him extremely sensitive to Spiritual Qi.
"Do you want to learn?" the middle-aged man asked with a smile.
"Yes." Ye Futian nodded. Then, he bowed to the middle-aged man and said, "Your disciple greets the master."
Her movements couldn't have been faster.
Ye Futian, of course, knew the importance of an inscriber. It was a profession even rarer than sorcerers. Their status was extremely high. An inscriber must also be a sorcerer with extraordinary talent.
"You really are as shameless as the rumors say." The girl put down the brush in her hand and looked at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian smiled nonchalantly. Looking at the girl's stunning face, he said, "Fox, we meet again."
