Chapter 421: Chapter 245: So You, a dicine Grower, Also Want to Go to the Death Realm, Huh?_2
“By then, we should be able to control the wind and rain as Lord Wen spoke of, and the Spirit Plant Garden will definitely flourish.”
Wei Yilong nodded, “Very well, in that case, I’ll write you a letter of recomndation to the Jiuhe City Academy for further studies.”
“With your foundational Gu Book knowledge and understanding, if you study at the Jiuhe City Academy for so ti, you will certainly achieve great things.”
“Wait a mont, I’ll take you to see Mr. Zhan Tang for so self-defense training.”
“By the way, form a contract with a sword Gu, an Iron Skin Gu, and a Copper Bone Gu before you set off.”
After practicing with Mr. Zhan Tang for a month, Pan Wu finally packed his belongings and began his journey to Jiuhe City.
After just a few days of travel, Pan Wu encountered a tiger demon. At first, being sowhat afraid of the tiger demon, Pan Wu was reassured when he saw the demon wearing the academy’s robes.
“Where are you headed, brother?”
The tiger demon laughed heartily, “Jiuhe City, Jiuhe City has issued a decree, calling all Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection to report there. I just broke through to Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection a few days ago, so I’m on my way there.”
“And you?”
Pan Wu clasped his hands, “I’m heading to Jiuhe City as well, why not travel together?”
The tiger demon said, “Sure, having company makes the journey a bit smoother.”
After another half month of travel, Pan Wu and the tiger demon ca across several more people, and they all proceeded to Jiuhe City together.
Reaching a large river, they suddenly saw figures ahead, with hundreds of people flying over it, indicating that a large number of Cultivators were on the move.
Seeing them, soone glanced at their attire and stopped to invite them along.
“You are heading to Jiuhe City as well?”
“We are also heading to Jiuhe City, co, let’s go together!”
Naturally, Pan Wu and his companions agreed and went along.
At night, many Cultivators held their als and gathered in one place. Curiously, Pan Wu caught a Cultivator headed toward the crowd, asking, “What are you all going for?”
The Cultivator said, “You don’t know yet? Gongzi Dan is in the group, and we are going to listen to him preach.”
Pan Wu asked in confusion, “Gongzi Dan?”
“Are you referring to the son of Lord Wen, Gongzi Dan?”
“In this barren mountain and wilderness?”
The Cultivator laughed, “In the whole of Nanli, only one person dares to call himself Gongzi Dan now!”
“Anyone else who dares to call himself that, I would tear him apart!”
Pan Wu asked, “Gongzi Dan should be only about ten years old now, can he preach?”
The Cultivator explained, “You are quite ignorant.”
“Lord Wen holds the Cultural Fortune of the world, allowing him to write Gu Books!”
“Gongzi Dan is different; after ingesting the three Lotus Flowers from Haoran Temple, he too holds the Cultural Fortune of the world!”
“You might not know it, but the latest Gu Books are all annotated by this Gongzi Dan, though he is modest and doesn’t claim credit!”
Pan Wu finally understood, “I wish to go as well.”
Entering the crowd, Pan Wu indeed saw a charming child holding a Gu Book, preaching.
Listening for a while, Pan Wu realized that Gongzi Dan’s teaching was more detailed and clearer than that of his teacher.
Chen Dan finished speaking and sat down to chat with everyone, “If you have any questions, feel free to ask here. I will do my best.”
After thinking deeply for an hour, Pan Wu hesitantly stepped forward and said, “Gongzi, the academy teachers spend a large amount of ti preaching every day, leaving no ti for their own cultivation.”
“Could you please co up with a solution?”
Chen Dan curiously glanced at this turtle demon. He hadn’t expected the first to raise this question to be from the Demon Clan.
“I already have so ideas on this matter. I will start working on it when I return to Jiuhe City.”
After traveling for over a month, the group finally arrived at Jiuhe City, a vast and bustling place.
Jiuhe City was now far more prosperous than when Chen Qing left it.
For tens of miles around Jiuhe City, it was almost filled with Foundation Establishnts.
During this ti on the road, Pan Wu had also successfully broken through to Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection.
After asking the guards where to report for orders as a Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection, soone soon ca to lead Pan Wu to the courtyard where the Foundation Establishnt Great Perfections were gathering.
He was assigned a small courtyard to stay temporarily, and soon soone ca to help him fill in his details, origin, and the types of Gu on him, as well as his Martial Arts realm.
Pan Wu did not go to the academy; he still wanted to go to the Death Realm.
As a mber of the Demon Clan, his thoughts were simple. It took him twenty years to cultivate from early to mid Foundation Establishnt.
But with the academy, it only took him ten years to progress from mid Foundation Establishnt to Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection.
Lord Wen was a significant figure to him, and now, with the turbulent situation in the Death Realm, Lord Wen needed new soldiers.
He also wanted to enter the Death Realm to help Lord Wen seize the final victory.
There was a part of him that wanted to earn rits and another part that followed the inherent demon instinct to follow strong beings.
With too many mixed-up thoughts, he could not pinpoint a single one.
In any case, he wanted to go to the Death Realm, even though it had already claid the lives of more than half of the Ghost Face Realm cultivators of this world.
The forces not under Chen Qing and Ji Dang were almost wiped out.
Entities like the Taiping Sect and Yin Yang Sect, the rebellious forces, had been completely purged.
When Ji Dang and Chen Qing entered the Death Realm, they were just the most powerful of the forces, but now they were the only two left battling for power.
As for the Red Lotus Demon King, everyone knew that they were aligned with Chen Qing’s side.
After ten years of war, the forces under Chen Qing and Ji Dang had long since turned into mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
Three days passed, and soon a Dragon Cavalry reservist ca, “Are you Pan Wu?”
Pan Wu replied, “Yes, from South Sea Baihe Academy.”
The Dragon Cavalry said, “I’ve reviewed your situation, and based on your abilities, you lean towards production-based skills, which are unsuitable for the Death Realm.”
“You’re better off going to the academy for further studies. With your talents, the academy would offer a more promising future.”
Pan Wu, displeased, said, “I can wield a flying sword. Though I may not fight on the front lines, I can help Lord Wen defend the city!”
The Dragon Cavalry said, “According to the higher-ups, those in your situation are better off staying in the human realm for now.”
“By remaining in the human realm, you can nurture more Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection cultivators.”
“When the war ends, and rewards are given, you will surely have the opportunity to break through to the Mystic Gate Realm.”
“The current Death Realm is too perilous. Cultivators like you stand little chance of surviving if you enter.”
Pan Wu asked, “Didn’t the decree state that Lord Wen currently needs many soldiers?”
The Dragon Cavalry said, “That’s true, but Lord Wen needs combat power. Production-based cultivators entering the Death Realm now is akin to killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.”
“The Death Realm situation has reached a prolonged standoff, and it’s a test of endurance now.”
“You know that Lord Wen and Ji Dang never act recklessly; both are waiting for the right mont for a decisive battle.”
“For production-oriented cultivators like you, it’s really not suitable now.”
“I can request a recomndation letter from the General for you, to study at the academy. After completing your studies, you could secure a position in the Spiritual Departnt, accumulating rits.”
Pan Wu thought, he already had a recomndation letter, “Let’s wait until after the selection.”
…
Jiuhe City Academy.
Jiang Xinghe glanced at the list of those recomnded from various academies, then at the list of those who had arrived, and stared in disbelief, “Only three have co? Where are all the recomnded people?”
Miao Shun sighed helplessly, “They’ve all gone to the military to await orders.”
“At the military, they’re practically writing recomndation letters in a frenzy, a group of production-type cultivators stubbornly insisting on going to the Death Realm to fight.”
“At the military, General Ye Yuntian has no choice but to hold a martial arts selection contest. Only the strong can join the military and begin training.”
“Even these three couldn’t be recruited because they didn’t have a single combat-type Gu insect, according to the military’s explicit instructions.”
“Vice Dean, this journey to the Death Realm is evidently a deadly situation, yet why are they so enthusiastic?”
Jiang Xinghe chuckled, “It’s not a bad thing. It shows we have captured the hearts of the people.”
“Since Lord Wen’s governance, the entire Nanli is moving in a better direction.”
“Honestly, if I didn’t have significant responsibilities now, even I would want to go to the Death Realm.”
