Jiang Xiu sat crossed legged in a quiet room while holding the Longevity Stone in his hand. The red characters appeared and disappeared like a glowing lamp as if it was exposing an unspeakable heavenly mystery.
The blood and energy within Jiang Xiu's body also surged in tandem with those flickering characters. It seed as if thunder was booming inside him as a vortex of divine force got absorbed into his bloodline and enhanced its divinity factor.
During this month of bitter cultivation, he had awakened divine regalia each day. Now, there were already a total of 62 divine regalias on his left arm.
The characters were already clear for the most part, but a tiny bit still hadn't revealed itself at the bottom. Jiang Xiu didn't recognize the script, but according to his inference, it was either a primal Godhead or a new Godhead which didn't exist on the Immortal Martial Continent.
He wasn't anxious about this unknown final letter as he would be able to pronounce this character once the entire thing was completed. When he does that, there was no doubt it would produce an extraordinary reaction.
He looked at his appearance in the mirror. It had gone through a huge change. His facial features had beco sharper and aura mysterious, seemingly containing boundless nether energy.
"Boooommm!"
The blood and energy inside Jiang Xiu's body reached the summit with quite the montum once again and broke through another barrier. The Godhead condensed together after exploding.
Awakening Stage's 36th Mythical Realm.
As Jiang Xiu reached a higher level of cultivation, his progress had beco slower. This too was an inevitable thing, and nothing could be done about this. Another problem was that as his powers grew stronger, the effect on the world due to his cultivation also beca larger. He was most troubled by this.
"Why hasn't it still ford a complete Divine Regalia!"
After becoming a God, he would be able to handle the divine force with complete mastery. Luckily, he had this Longevity Stone or else he would have been troubled to find a source of energy for breaking through the Awakening Stage.
"I wonder how many more Divine Regalia are needed?"
Jiang Xiu wished to continue cultivating, but he had no choice but to stop as there was no point in continuing. He had shut himself inside his ho for over a month, and the university term was also nearing so he had to go to the university to report.
After refusing his parents as well as everyone else who wished to send him off, Jiang Xiu left for the Imperial Capital via a plane.
He was setting foot on this land where he had suffered endless humiliation after 3 millenniums. Only, in the previous tiline, he had co here to seek shelter from his relatives like a stray dog, but this ti, he was setting foot here with a dominant look.
As the new term of university begins, the place is filled with a sea of people. Many students who were returning from ho, as well as the freshn, ca to the university.
The mory of him entering the Imperial University for the first ti in the previous tiline was etched into his mory. It possessed an extraordinary style as an educational establishnt which was constructed over a hundred years ago. Even parents felt excited when entering here, let alone the students.
And just like any other university, the seniors were standing at the doorway to welco the new students.
All the girls were quite popular. Three to four of them targeted girls who could be marked as a 70-80 while over a dozen of them targeted outstanding girls who could be marked as a 90 and had excellent figure and appearance. Two of them were even striving to gift things to her.
The boys were relatively miserable. No one went towards them if they weren't handso and none dared to near those who were handso.
"Junior, which departnt are you from?"
Jiang Xiu turned back to look at who had called out to him. It was a pretty, graceful girl who had light makeup on her face. She spoke to him with a smile on his face while two female students shyly discussed among themselves at a distance behind her.
"? Archaeology Departnt."
When Jiang Xiu had filled Archaeology on the form, Jiang Yi and Lin Yueling were very shocked. When they asked him for a reason, he told them that it was because he was interested in it.
"Archaeology Departnt, why did you enter such a neglected departnt?" The girl continued, "It doesn't matter. I know where it is, do you want this senior sister to lead the way there?"
"Thank you, but I'm waiting for soone."
The girl was put in an awkward situation. The two girls behind her also started giggling. She complained to him, "Junior, you're really not giving any face… Ahem, alright. Goodbye then…"
Jiang Xiu was waiting for Cheng Lingran here as she told him she would co to receive him.
After waiting for 30 minutes, Jiang Xiu finally called her. The first thing our Eldest Lady Cheng did after answering the call was to apologize, "Little Xiu, I'm sorry. Susu's new term began today as well. I ca to Huaxia University along with my parents. I forgot to tell you."
Life was really unpredictable. Jiang Xiu didn't think he would join the sa university as Cheng Lingran and though he had already prepared himself to bear the pain of losing her, he felt a sense of loss when she forgot him so lightly.
"It's fine since you are busy. I'll try to find a senior to guide ."
"It's sister's mistake this ti, I'll invite you to a al later."
"I'll set things up for Susu here first."
She quickly hung the call after saying that.
…
"Excuse , which way is the Archaeology Departnt?"
The Archaeology Departnt was too neglected. Jiang Xiu asked a few seniors, but they were all in a hurry to go play soccer so they couldn't guide him and just pointed the way.
He found his way there by asking around.
"Excuse , where is the Archaeology Departnt?"
Jiang Xiu asked a group of boys as they ca out from the building before him.
"You've also chosen the Archaeology Departnt?"
The boys asked helplessly.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
A boy on the side said, "Hah. Another buffoon who has joined the Archaeology Departnt to chase after Qiu Yinru."
"Tsk-Tsk. Our Queen Qiu is that aweso."
The boy at the front pointed towards the building behind him, "That's the building of the Archaeology Departnt. Brother, let give you so advice. Qin Yinru isn't soone we can chase after. You'll just waste your future prospects this way so better transfer to another departnt while you still can."
Jiang Xiu didn't bother to correct their criticism as he didn't find it worthwhile to explain anything to strangers. He thanked them as a gesture of courtesy then walked over towards the building.
A group of people assembled inside the building. There was an old professor writing sothing on the blackboard as an introduction. The students were sitting in scattered positions, and so of them were listening to the professor while the others chatted with each other.
"As our Archaeology Departnt is special as we spend most of our ti off campus on expeditions. I advise the students to prepare yourself for this."
"These are the issues we'll be solving this term. The 3-6-9 water pass remnant at Yellow River, this is Linrong Village of Western Sichuan which had appeared due to drought and was completely intact, and this is…"
"This year, we have also invited a lot of archaeologists as well as have fortunately invited Mr. Qian Deshen as the adviser…"
Jiang Xiu entered the building at this mont, "Excuse , is this the Archaeology Departnt?"
The professor looked at Jiang Xiu's luggage then said, "Are you a new student? How co you are here with your luggage? Go to the dorm and get settled first. Did you et your seniors at the entrance?"
Jiang Xiu shook his head.
"Let it be. Keep the luggage to the side and listen to this term's objective first. Do you know what place this is?" The professor pointed the laser pen towards the image on the blackboard.
After returning from Xie Sanxian's place, Jiang Xiu had researched into Sahagan Ancient City. This image was of a corner of the city. Though it was a blurry image, Jiang Xiu could recognize it, "It should be Sahagan Ancient City."
"Right. You're right, new student!"
He was placed in the lilight instantly, all the others gazed at him when in actuality, he had just guessed it from his observation.
"This is an ancient desert city which was subrged under the sand several years ago. Many people doubt its existence, but according to the research I have done on it, this city definitely exists."
The professor beca quite excited and thus continued speaking for over 20 minutes.
After everyone left, Jiang Xiu asked him, "Professor, are we planning to go to this ancient desert city?"
"Are you interested?" The professor asked him. This professor wore spectacles and had ssy gray hair yet his eyes were quite lively. One look at him was enough to tell he was an intellectual person who has read a lot of books and delved into history.
"We are indeed planning to go, but we have already organized an exploration team." He picked up a list from the table, "It's just that you're a first-year student and the crew is already full, so you'll have to wait for the next year."
It wasn't a problem for Jiang Xiu to live in the desert but it was as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack to locate that ancient desert city. He had to rely on these experienced archaeologists for that.
"Professor, can you do sothing? I'm quite interested in that ancient city."
The professor muttered to himself, "Why don't you go find Qiu Yinru? This plan was made by her. If she says you can co then you can or else you'll have to wait."
