Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start
Chapter 1086 - 128: Land of Holy Melody, Innate Divine Object

Nowadays, the entire East Profound Region is discussing the event of Yun Zishu joining Qingyun Academy.

As a top prodigy listed on the Dao Gold List, upon meeting today, the three from Zhenyuan indeed felt Yun Zishu's extraordinariness.

However, at this moment, Yun Zishu was sizing up Gu Chen. For some reason, he vaguely felt that he couldn't quite see through him.

This made Yun Zishu somewhat surprised.

Just then, a young man suddenly appeared here.

It was Chu Liufeng who had looked for him numerous times while Gu Chen was in seclusion.

Chu Liufeng seemed not to have expected that so many people would be gathered here, and to see the highly-talked-about Yun Zishu present, he was momentarily stunned.

"Who might this be?" Yun Zishu turned his gaze and looked over.

"I am Chu Liufeng."

After recovering from his surprise, Chu Liufeng quickly gave a fist and palm salute to Yun Zishu as a greeting.

At that moment, Gu Chen looked at Chu Liufeng, wondering why he had sought him out so persistently.

"Brother Gu, sorry to disturb you," Chu Liufeng said with an apologetic smile.

"Is there something you need?" Gu Chen asked directly.

"It's nothing particularly important," Chu Liufeng replied with a smile. "I just have some questions regarding cultivation that I would like to discuss with you, Brother Gu. If it's inconvenient, then never mind."

Having said this, he glanced at Yun Zishu standing beside him, obviously somewhat surprised.

"It's no trouble," Gu Chen shook his head, signaling to Chu Liufeng that it was no problem.

"If that's the case, then I thank Brother Gu greatly," Chu Liufeng said upon hearing that, and he bowed respectfully to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen did not mind, and thus, they all moved to the garden on the outskirts and began discussing some issues regarding cultivation.

During this time, it was mainly Gu Chen and Yun Zishu who spoke, answering questions for everyone, and both had profound insights into the practice of cultivation.

The others didn't think much of it, but Yun Zishu and Chu Liufeng were quite surprised.

The former was surprised because he recognized the extraordinary insights and experience of Gu Chen, which astonished him.

The latter, on the other hand, did not expect that on certain matters, Gu Chen could actually hold a discussion on par with Yun Zishu, something he had truly not anticipated.

"Today, I thank everyone for resolving my doubts," Chu Liufeng stood up after the discussion and bowed deeply to Gu Chen and the others.

"There's no need for politeness," Yun Zishu said with a smile that was as refreshing as a spring breeze.

At that moment, Chu Liufeng hesitated for a moment, looked at Gu Chen and the others, and said, "I wonder if I might trouble everyone again for the next time."

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen exchanged glances with Princess Xidie and the few others from Zhenyuan, then nodded slightly and replied, "No problem."

"That's great!"

At this response, Chu Liufeng's face lit up with joy, and he seemed very exhilarated, thanking Gu Chen and the others repeatedly.

…

In the depths of Qingyun Academy, a group of Great Powers and eminent figures had gathered together once again.

And all this was because of a single sentence from the head of Qingyun Academy.

"Unlock the Saint Rhyme Land, and let this be the test to decide the candidate for the successor."

This was the message that the head of Qingyun Academy sent to the high-ranking officials of the Academy, and upon hearing this, they were all taken aback.

They had originally thought that Yun Zishu would be the final candidate for the succession, but they didn't expect the head to actually unlock Saint Rhyme Land and use it as a test to select the ultimate heir.

"Is this necessary? Even if we unlock Saint Rhyme Land and let all the students enter, the final victor will still only be Yun Zishu," declared one of the Great Powers.

As soon as these words were spoken, the rest of the senior officials naturally agreed.

After all, Yun Zishu's strength was too outstanding among his peers, surpassing other students by a large margin. It was said that even the previously rumored number one, Gu Bai, would not be a match for him.

Although they also knew that Gu Bai might be concealing his true strength, they were aware of Yun Zishu's reputation as a figure listed on the Dao Gold List, an entity whose fame had spread across the 3,600 domains of the upper world.

Gu Bai was strong, but these senior officials believed that perhaps he could be compared to Bai Yu. Despite being impressive, he was still far from being Yun Zishu's equal.

"Why would the head do this? Could it be that he believes someone among the students has the capability to match Yun Zishu?" Many of the officials were puzzled.

At this time, one of the Academy's heavyweights spoke up, "The head has his own considerations for doing this. Yun Zishu has just joined the Academy, and perhaps this is merely a test for him by the head."

Upon hearing this, the senior officials couldn't help but nod in agreement.

In the crowd, the Great Power Cui Ji's eyes flickered as he felt that the head's thoughts might not be so simple.

If he had settled on Yun Zishu, he would have simply appointed him outright. Why go to the expense of unlocking Saint Rhyme Land?

After all, it was a once powerful person's place for enlightenment, originating from the last era's Azure Cloud Sky, and was of immense value, being one of Qingyun Academy's most treasured sites.

Not to mention that it contained various fortunes, including a treasure that even he, a Great Power, and other heavyweights of the Academy coveted.

That particular treasure, nurtured by Qingyun Academy for countless years, was finally about to emerge?

It wasn't just Cui Ji who thought of this; the others had also considered it.

"The Saint Rhyme Land, with its abundant opportunities and that divine object within, is it not too hasty to open it so soon?" One of the Great Powers frowned.

They had all originally thought that the head would assess the situation over a period of time before possibly deciding on the heir. Such a move was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.
