Huolian the Fire Spirit, Arrival, Dao Cheng, Yuan Yi
"This length definitely indicates a top -Second Tier interstellar warship, a vehicle that only a Grandmaster of the Purple Mansion can pilot."
"For some unknown reason, we were able to attract a true being to our small Cowherd Planetary System."
Just then, a shuttle flew out from the starport and approached the massive warship.
The giant ship broke open a passage, and two beams of light from the Dao Foundation pierced through the air and disappeared.
The person in charge of the Starport guarding this place narrowed his eyes upon seeing the familiar Blood Qi light.
"It's that Daoist Buzhen. What's his background? How does he have connections with the Purple Mansion Perfected Person?"
The black and red interstellar warship ignored the onlookers and disappeared into the Dark Universe in a short while. It then sank directly into the [Mysterious Billows Heavenly River] here and began its journey at more than 3,000 times the speed of light.
When Li Fan and Xu Xuan entered the interstellar warship, they were somewhat taken aback by the dense Spiritual Primordial Qi present.
There were also some Dharma Primordial Qi floating in the air, whose vastness made them feel that inhaling it would risk causing their bodies to explode.
And here, a fire spirit was already waiting.
This fire spirit manifested in human form, but its interior was still composed of fire energy.
Its aura was as vast as the sea. The two of them only glanced at it, but they felt an endless Sea of Fire about to rush towards them, so they immediately lowered their heads to look at it.
Since neither of them showed any satisfaction, Fire Spirit nodded and said, "Come with me, our master wants to see you."
Li Fan hadn't had much experience interacting with such beings, but he had read many novels in his previous life. Since his cultivation level was inferior, he naturally treated them with utmost respect to avoid incurring their annoyance and suffering undeserved disaster.
"I, Li Fan, greet you, sir. This is my friend Xu Xuan of Thunder Qi Dao. May I ask your name, sir?"
Floating in the warship's passageway, it observed with great interest the permanent defensive force field of black and red blood energy covering Li Fan's body. "This is Huolian, formed from a wondrous fire of heaven and earth created by Master Yuanlian."
"Li Fan, you do have some skill. You've managed to attract the attention of the Black Iron Academy. You should have no shortage of resources for Dao Foundation Establishment cultivation in the future, and breaking through to the Purple Mansion shouldn't be a problem."
Li Fan was surprised by the high praise he received and quickly replied modestly, "Huolian is too kind. My discovery was merely a small one, yet it has attracted the attention of a master like you. I am truly ashamed."
Huolian's gaze then fell upon Xu Xuan, who was walking behind Li Fan, and he clicked his tongue in amazement. "Hehe! Two new geniuses have emerged from just one corner of the planetary system. Judging from the quality of your Dao Foundation, they are probably top-tier as well. It's truly going to be a fierce battle between dragons and tigers in the future!"
Li Fan and Xu Xuan behind him exchanged a glance, both of them showing surprise.
Judging from his words, there were probably quite a few geniuses from other star regions as well, which made them feel a kind of inexplicable tension.
They soon arrived at the warship Cambridge.
This place is extremely spacious, as big as a football field, but it completely lacks the high-tech feel of a starship with its numerous information panels. Instead, it has a retro feel, with the style of a large fairy palace.
Perfected Yuanlian sat at the head of the table, cross-legged, meditating on the Dao.
Huolian led the two of them to bow respectfully. "Master, these two juniors have been brought here."
Perfected Yuanlian opened his eyes, and endless Metal and Fire images spread out towards the two of them. Almost instantly, they felt as if they had fallen into a stellar world, and the surrounding world was about to melt.
This change lasted only a moment, then vanished in an instant.
Immediately following was the arrival of a vast and boundless divine sense. The two felt that every thought or idea they had could be captured and interpreted. They immediately became alarmed and focused their minds, ceasing all thoughts and intentions.
Yuanlian nodded and laughed, instantly easing the tense atmosphere.
"Haha! You two young friends are quite interesting. One possesses the purest Blood Qi, and the other has the purest Tribulation Thunder Intent. Rare indeed!"
He didn't exchange many words with the two men, but looked at Huolian, who was standing at the lower end of the table, and instructed, "Arrange for them to stay. This voyage will last a month. Whether they choose to cultivate alone or travel around is up to them."
Huolian accepted the order and led them to the lower district to arrange accommodations.
A month passed quietly, without any special events occurring. The two of them simply strolled around the interstellar warship a few times to broaden their horizons.
Not far from the border of [Mysterious Billows Heavenly River], there is a planetary system that is extremely prosperous and powerful. 36 life-bearing planets are arranged in three layers, forming a quasi-third-order feng shui pattern, which maintains its key functions of guarding and transporting massive energy.
As Perfected Yuanlian's interstellar warship pierced through the Dark Universe, Li Fan and Xu Xuan gained a deeper understanding of the prosperity of the Academy Planetary System.
Returning to the reality of interstellar space, a dense swirling mass permeates the entire planetary system, enveloping 36 habitable planets and the central giant star. Within this space, there are also powerful spaces of considerable rank, revolving around the entire planetary system.
Based on what we've learned over the past few days, part of it is an artificial secret realm created by the Black Iron Academy, and the other part is Chaos blessed land established by various Purple Mansion Perfected Person.
Xu Xuan's yearning and curiosity about the world reached its peak, especially the Chaos Blessed Land, which could be inhabited by Purple Mansion Perfected Person. The light of laws Divine Ability that flickered in the Chaos was almost comparable to that of ordinary life in the Star Realm.
"Li Fan, this is the true spirit of a cultivator—dwelling in Chaos, transcending the mortal world."
Li Fan nodded, echoing the same sentiment.
"It is said that the concentration of Primordial Qi in these Chaos blessed lands has reached an inconceivable level. Only by independently nurturing spiritual beings at the Purple Mansion level and minimizing their needs from the human world can they demonstrate the Purple Mansion Perfected Person."
"This is just the Purple Mansion Blessed Land. If it were a cave world opened up by Golden Core True Lord, it would be unimaginably magnificent and unparalleled."
At that moment, a vast divine sense swept towards them.
"You two juniors can stay here; members of the academy will naturally receive you."
Li Fan and Xu Xuan had already arrived at the middle of the warship, waiting for the warship's gate to open. Upon receiving the divine message, they dared not delay and bowed in thanks from afar.
As the interstellar warship sailed out of the Dark Universe, two interstellar ships, one from Earth Immortal Star and the other from Heavenly Immortal Star, were already stationed at the university's central starport.
As soon as the two stepped out of the docked interstellar warship, two beams of magical light shot towards them.
They were a man and a woman. The male cultivator was elegant and otherworldly, holding a whisk and wearing a Daoist crown, dressed like a hermit. The female cultivator wore a plain white robe and a white jade sword at her waist. Her sword intent was evident between her brows, and her aura was fierce.
The Daoist priest spoke first, greeting the two of them. "Are you two fellow Daoists, Buzhen Pijie?"
Li Fan and Xu Xuan returned the greeting with clasped hands and nodded in confirmation. "It is indeed us!"
The Daoist priest introduced himself to them, "My Daoist name is Dao Cheng, Yusheng am a disciple of the Great Yuan Zhen and the Immortal Yusheng."
He then pointed to the female sword cultivator beside him. "This is my grandmaster uncle, Yuan Yi Yuanyi, from the lineage of the Great Spirit Sword Immortal of the [Heavenly Immortal Star]. She is not very good with words."
After this introduction, Li Fan and Xu Xuan both realized the other's impressive background.
