"Am I too stupid? It's been three days and I still haven't opened my Spirit Ocean. I even spent so many resources on Young Master Gu and swallowed so many pills …"
Hearing Gu Changge's explanation, Xiao Ruoyin opened her eyes, looking a little disappointed.
Yan Ji's expression was very calm. He shook his head slightly and said, "Your aptitude is very good. Even the more outstanding geniuses take a few months to open their Spirit Ocean when they first start cultivating. You can already sense spirit energy on the third day. This speed is already very frightening."
"Based on your current speed, you will be able to open your Spirit Ocean in at most a month. Don't worry."
Hearing this, Xiao Ruoyin felt much better. She also had some motivation. She couldn't help but nod and say, "Yes, yes. I understand, Master. I will definitely work harder in my cultivation."
Saying this, she secretly glanced at Gu Changge, then lowered her head again.
She had also heard about the rumors about the outside world in the past few days.
She also clearly understood some of the general knowledge of this world and the general background of the forces.
Therefore, Xiao Ruoyin could feel how terrifying Gu Changge's identity was. She felt a huge pressure in her heart.
Because of this, she didn't dare to restrain herself in front of Gu Changge like before.
After all, the more she understood, the more she could feel the gap between them. It was like a natural chasm that was difficult to cross.
It was exactly like the saying, "the ignorant are fearless."
Xiao Ruoyin also admired her previous self for having the guts to speak to Gu Changge like that.
It was no wonder that Gu Changge found it interesting. It was the first time a woman had said such things in front of him.
That was because the women he had met before were not as ignorant as her. They were extremely afraid of Gu Changge and didn't dare to speak too much.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ruoyin felt somewhat lucky. If she wasn't a transmigrator and didn't have the mindset of a modern person, she was afraid that she wouldn't even have the courage to speak to Gu Changge back then.
Now, what qualifications did she have to listen to Gu Changge's guidance?
Which one of the girls by Gu Changge's side didn't have unparalleled beauty, terrifying talent, and powerful strength?
Only she was as ignorant as an idiot.
"Young Master Gu, may I ask how long it took you to open your Spirit Sea?"
However, Xiao Ruoyin was also very smart.
She guessed that Gu Changge found her interesting because she dared to open her mouth and talk to him about things that other women didn't dare to talk about.
Therefore, her eyes were filled with curiosity and she could not help but ask. She wanted to have a goal in her heart.
Upon hearing this question, Gu Changge put down the teacup in his hand and looked over.
However, that smile made Xiao Ruoyin feel that she had asked a very stupid question.
"To be honest, it didn't take much time for me to open up my Spirit Ocean, because my Spirit Ocean was already formed before I was born …"
Gu Changge smiled and answered her question seriously.
"…"
Xiao Ruoyin's expression froze. She really wanted to apologize to him. Was this the difference between a real genius and a fake one?
Before this, she really thought that her talent was very good. Now, it seemed that she had thought too much.
"Miss Xiao, you don't have to compare yourself to me. There are thousands of geniuses in this world, like carps crossing the river, countless. Your talent is already considered to be the best among them. Compared to them, your starting point is already very high. "
Gu Changge seemed to know what she was thinking and comforted her.
The smile on his face was still warm and elegant, standing out from the crowd. There was not a single flaw to be found.
Xiao Ruoyin glanced at him resentfully. Was this supposed to be consolation? Why did she still feel so hurt?
"After some time, Miss Xiao should follow Yan Ji to the Palace of Heavenly Immortals to cultivate. There will be many elders there to guide you. In addition, there will be many fellow disciples. You can spar with each other and verify each other's cultivation. It will be very beneficial for your cultivation."
Then, Gu Changge said, intending to throw Xiao Ruoyin to the Palace of Heavenly Immortals.
He couldn't keep her by his side all the time. It wasn't that she was an eyesore, but that he felt that she was useless before she recovered the memories of the High Priest of Destiny.
Moreover, it would take a long time for the Fateless Body to reach grand completion.
"Yes, yes, I will listen to Young Master Gu."
"Palace of Heavenly Immortals? What is that place? "
Hearing this, Xiao Ruoyin's eyes flashed with light.
She didn't know what Gu Changge was thinking now. She thought that Gu Changge felt that her cultivation was very monotonous and decided to let her join the sect. She felt touched.
The Palace of Heavenly Immortals, just from the name, it gave off an extraordinary feeling.
In the next few days, Black Jade sent many experts to clean up the battlefield. Of course, to outsiders, it was indeed so. After all, after the battle, many weapons, Sumeru Rings, and other things were scattered everywhere. It was an indescribable wealth, and someone had to clean it up.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Black Jade also followed Gu Changge's instructions and collected the sources that hadn't disappeared yet.
Unsurprisingly, after devouring and refining the sources, Gu Changge's cultivation base still hadn't broken through to the Quasi-Supreme Realm.
However, taking advantage of the opportunity to destroy the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird, the Son of Destiny, Gu Changge obtained a lot of Transcendence Bones.
After the matter was settled, Yan Ji brought Xiao Ruoyin to the Palace of Heavenly Immortals, while Black Jade led the Immortal Ancient army back to the Immortal Ancient Continent.
As for Gu Changge, she naturally led her followers back to the Immortal Academy with peace of mind.
After this incident, Lord of Purple Sun died tragically at the hands of Gu Changge, which indirectly led to the destruction of the Purple Mansion.
Six Crown King Jun Yao, Golden Cicada Buddha, Heavenly Phoenix Maiden, and the others all avoided him like the plague.
In the entire Immortal Academy, no one dared to go against Gu Changge. He could be said to be able to cover the sky with one hand and had great power. Even the Elders who had become Supremes had to be respectful to him.
After Gu Changge returned to the Immortal Academy.
Although the entrance trial ended early, after a discussion among the Elders, they still decided to give the disciples some rewards based on the points they obtained and the number of Yin creatures they killed.
Unsurprisingly, the one who obtained the most points was the Holy Maiden of the Human Ancestor Palace, Jiang Chuchu.
In this trial, the number of Yin-Terminating beings that had died at her hands was uncountable. Not to mention, she had even gotten rid of an Absolute Yin Disaster. Such ability made the Elders exclaim in admiration, thinking that she was indeed the Holy Maiden of the Human Ancestor Palace.
Jiang Chuchu actually wanted to say that she wasn't the one who had gotten rid of the Absolute Yin Disaster, but Gu Changge.
However, Gu Changge didn't seem to care about this false reputation. He didn't care about it at all, thinking that he didn't want to leave his name behind after doing a good deed. No, he wanted to throw the reputation to her after doing a good deed.
Jiang Chuchu didn't know what to say about him.
Moreover, after Gu Changge returned to the Immortal Academy, he seemed to have entered seclusion and didn't see any outsiders.
Although Jiang Chuchu wanted to ask him some questions, she couldn't find a suitable reason, so she didn't have the chance to see him.
After all, in the eyes of outsiders, what kind of relationship could there be between her and Gu Changge?
However, Jiang Chuchu still clearly remembered that Gu Changge had said that she had gained something for nothing. After that, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that Gu Changge was teasing her.
She took this to heart. Every time she thought about it, she wanted to bite him to vent her anger. She wanted to find him and ask him clearly.
After eating clean and wiping his mouth, this guy won't admit it again?
Gu Changge didn't know what Jiang Chuchu was thinking. After returning to the Immortal Academy, he naturally sorted out his gains after destroying the Violet Mansion.
Then, he chose many things that Yue Mingkong could use and sent someone to deliver them to her. After all, she was his fiancée.
Of course, the main reason was that he had something to ask of her.
In addition, during this period of time, Gu Xian 'er had nothing to do, so she always came to his palace and asked about this and that to show her presence.
However, Gu Changge knew what she was thinking, so he sent her away with a few saint tools and divine herbs.
After the Violet Mansion was destroyed, many orthodoxies saw with their own eyes that their countless years of accumulation fell into his hands. It would be strange if they weren't jealous.
With Gu Xian 'er's greedy personality, it was already good enough that she didn't clamor for a share after knowing that he had obtained so much wealth.
Perhaps the reason why he had been wandering around the palace these past few days was to think of the best way to knock him out so that he could snatch Gu Changge away.
Gu Changge believed that she could definitely do this kind of thing. She stared at him with eyes that were almost like a wolf's.
Of course, when sending Gu Xian 'er away, Gu Changge took advantage of her. That girl would be too embarrassed to show up in front of him again for at least ten days or half a month.
When she escaped from the palace, her face was as red as a cooked prawn. Even her steps were weak.
…
"Senior in a black robe, where are we?"
At this moment, they stopped in front of an ethereal immortal mountain. The speaker was good-looking, tall and straight, giving off a sunny and cheerful vibe.
It was Jiang Chen and the black-robed old man, who had left the territory of the Ancient Country of Vermilion Bird.
With the black-robed old man's strong cultivation, the two traveled millions of miles very quickly. They passed through several teleportation formations and finally left the range of the war.
What he was seeing gave Jiang Chen a feeling of immortality and indescribable nobility.
The atmosphere was peaceful. The trees were lush, and the pavilions were embellished. Waterfalls were flowing, cranes were flying, and auspicious beasts were roaring. It was a fairy-like place.
"This is the School of the Divine Ruins. It's the strongest force in the area. From now on, you'll practice in the School of the Divine Ruins. According to the inheritance I'll teach you, you'll become a Sea of Spirit State practitioner in a month. If you run into any accidents during this time, just crush the jade talisman. I'll show up to save you. "
The black-robed old man said, pointing at a giant cyan stone beside him. There were two words written on the stone, "Divine Ruins."
Jiang Chen nodded. He looked a little serious. "Got it, senior."
He had learned how powerful the Thousand Transformations Demonic Technique was. It was an extremely vicious inheritance of methods that required one to devour others' cultivation.
However, after receiving the inheritance, Jiang Chen felt relieved.
In this world where the strong preyed on the weak, nothing was more important than power. This was what the black-robed old man had taught him.
Jiang Chen was not an inflexible person. After struggling for a few days, he figured it out. With his modern mindset, it was easier for him to accept all of this.
In order to become stronger, what was wrong with harming other practitioners? In this world, being weak was a sin. Only the strong could survive.
"I hope you won't disappoint me."
The black-robed old man nodded. Then he disappeared quickly.
Then Jiang Chen took a deep breath. He strode toward the gate of the School of the Divine Ruins. He saw two youngsters kneeling there from a distance. They seemed to be begging for mercy.
"You'd better leave. Your talent is too mediocre. Even if you work hard, it won't work." An old Taoist in front of the gate shook his head slightly.
"Immortal Master, please give us another chance." The two youths kneeling there were very stubborn. They kept on kowtowing and wouldn't get up.
The old Taoist sighed. "You've been kneeling there for half a month. I'm not a heartless person, but rules are rules. Your talent is too mediocre. You won't be able to pass the test. You'd better leave the mountain as soon as possible."
The two youngsters were desperate. They realized that even if they kept kneeling there, they would not get any hope.
The School of the Divine Ruins was the best cultivation sect in the area. It was said that the School of the Divine Ruins was affiliated with the Daoist Sect of the Divine Ruins. The Daoist Sect of the Divine Ruins was an affiliated force of the reclusive Ji family.
As long as they could join the School of the Divine Ruins, even if they could only be a servant disciple, it would be enough for them to enjoy a lifetime of glory.
However, Jiang Chen remained calm and composed. He walked over quickly. He didn't feel any sympathy for these two youngsters.
"Master, please wait!" Jiang Chen spoke first while the others were looking at him with puzzled gazes.
"You are …" The old Taoist was about to leave. He frowned. Sizing him up, he was puzzled.
"Master, I'm here to join the School of the Divine Ruins," Jiang Chen said. He was confident in his talent for cultivation.
"You're too old. Even if you have a good foundation, it doesn't conform to the rules. The School of the Divine Ruins only accepts disciples under 18."
The old Taoist's voice was gentle. He did not drive Jiang Chen away because of his age. Instead, he tried to persuade him.
"You're over 18. Why are you here to join the School of the Divine Ruins? Don't you see the rules of the School of the Divine Ruins? "
The two youngsters sized up Jiang Chen's clothes. They found he was in rags. He did not look like someone from a big family at all. They looked at him with disdain.
Mortals who could cultivate in this world were either in power or extremely rich.
Someone like Jiang Chen, who was in rags and looked like a beggar, did not have enough money to buy many cultivation resources, even if he was talented.
"Master, I believe the School of the Divine Ruins will make an exception for me."
Jiang Chen did not care about the two youngsters' sarcasm. He smiled and spoke confidently.
"Make an exception? Why don't you take a piss and look at your reflection? That's ridiculous. "
Upon hearing this, the two youngsters started mocking him, and their words were filled with disdain and mockery toward Jiang Chen. "A beggar wants to cultivate in vain, and he even said that the School of Divine Ruins will make an exception for him. Do you want to make us laugh to death?"
Although Jiang Chen did not want to argue with them, he was still pissed off to be looked down upon in such a way.
However, he was good at maintaining his composure. He still looked calm and confident.
He believed the old Taoist in front of him should be able to see how extraordinary his body and foundation were.
"If you really want to join the School of the Divine Ruins, you should know the rules of the School of the Divine Ruins. If you're here to make trouble, don't blame me for not showing you any mercy …"
However, to Jiang Chen's surprise, the old Taoist in front of him suddenly changed his mild expression. He said angrily.
The old Taoist thought Jiang Chen had come to make fun of him. If he was so confident about his talent for cultivation, wouldn't he have joined another big school?
Why did he have to come to the School of the Divine Ruins?
"Taoist, please listen to me. I really want to join the School of the Divine Ruins. However, it's a long journey. We ran into many fierce beasts on the way. Many of our servants died. I'm the only one who survived. I could only eat wild fruits to satisfy my hunger. That's how I got here … "
Jiang Chen hurried to explain. He started to describe how dangerous and miserable his journey had been. The two youngsters who had mocked him were dumbfounded.
Although the old Taoist did not seem to believe him, he calmed down a lot.
However, he still insisted.
"Rules are rules. You're already past the best age for cultivation, so please go back. Since the School of the Divine Ruins was founded, we have never accepted a disciple who is over 18 … "
Jiang Chen frowned. He did not expect the old Taoist would not let him take the aptitude test even though he had said so.
Did he have to crush the jade talisman to ask the black-robed old man for help?
However, if he could not even solve such a problem, wouldn't he look too useless and useless?
"Ha!"
"I'll give him a chance."
However, at this moment, a melodious laughter came from the gate. It sounded like a piece of mysterious ice had fallen on a jade plate. It was like the sound of nature.
Jiang Chen was shocked when he heard the voice. He looked over immediately.
He saw a teenage girl. She was standing on a white jade staircase. Her hair was smooth. There were no decorations on it. It seemed to be shining.
This young girl was wearing a light yellow dress. She was tall and slender, giving off an otherworldly vibe like that of a fairy in the woods.
Her face looked very ordinary, nothing out of the ordinary, but her eyes were very big, incomparably clear and spirited, as bright and moving as the moon.
The old Taoist at the gate turned pale when he saw her. He hurried to salute her respectfully. "Greetings, young lady."
The teenage girl nodded slightly. She laid her eyes on Jiang Chen. Smiling, she said, "Beggar, why don't you come in?"
Jiang Chen was struck dumb. At this moment, he heard the voice of the spirit of the Celestial Boat of Fortune.
"Chen 'zi, this teenage girl is not simple. You should be careful."
"I'm not a beggar. My name is Jiang Chen."
Jiang Chen came to himself very soon. He smiled at the old Taoist at the gate. Then he strode into the gate.
The old Taoist was puzzled, but he did not have the nerve to ask.
"Immortal Master, who is that teenage girl?"
The two teenagers were also struck dumb. They did not expect the beggar they had been mocking to have entered the School of the Divine Ruins. They were jealous of him.
"Young lady, she … is not someone you can ask about?"
The old Taoist, who had been mild-mannered, suddenly looked very cold. He asked in a loud voice.
The two teenagers were given a scare. They did not have the nerve to stay there. Feeling jealous of Jiang Chen, they hurried down the mountain.
