Chapter 25: The ship is sinking
Although Murong Haoran had already told Qin Huayi that after arriving at Guangming Academy, the two of them were not in vain and pretended not to be a real master-apprentice relationship. But Murong Haoran considered that this was Qin Huayi's first time facing the outside world, and he did not understand the complexity of the relationship between people and the darkness of people's hearts at all. Anyway, time was enough, so he explained some of the internal information of Guangming Academy in detail.
The Guangming Academy is like the outside world, and there are also intrigues. His alchemy skills are good and his status is very high, but there are also many people who have offended them.
Not to mention anything else, the only ones of the heavenly alchemists in the academy often stumbling on him, so if he made it public that Qin Huayi was his disciple, he would definitely have big trouble in the future.
Furthermore, Qin Hua repeatedly studied systematically in the lower academy, which also benefits Qin Huayi. After all, Guangming Academy is the top top institution on the mainland. His cultivation of the mysterious skills of Murong Haoran is really not very good. He can teach Qin Huayi to refine alchemy, but he cannot systematically teach Qin Xie to practice the mysterious skills, so it is very necessary to study in the lower academy.
Although Qin Huayi studied in the lower court, the master and apprentice could still meet frequently. Qin Huayi could go to the upper court secretly in his spare time, or help when Murong Haoran needed an assistant. Just grasp the distance and not seem too close.
During this period, Murong Haoran would provide all favorable resources for Qin Huayi to grow up in the lower court. When Qin Huayi's wings are really hard and he has a certain amount of self-protection, there is naturally no need to conceal the real relationship between them.
To put it bluntly, Murong Haoran was just afraid that his baby apprentice would lose his life if he couldn't take care of him.
Qin Huayi certainly understood Murong Haoran's approach. In order to protect him, Murong Haoran had such a subtle idea that he could not help but move. Although he had not been together for a long time, he was still clear about Murong Haoran's pride. He was so cautious and careful that everything was for him.
"Huayi, the one hundred top Xuanhuang pills in your place should be enough for three months' dosage. You should not take more than one day, at most two. Xuanli needs to be nourished slowly, not just swallowed whole, and it will be successful in one go." Seeing Murong Haoran's instructions like an old mother, Qin Huayi was warm in his mind and listened with a smile.
"In three months, I will go to the lower court to find you, and then help you enter the bone tempering realm." Murong Haoran paused and thought carefully, there was something he hadn't told me.
"Also, if you offend someone in the lower court or are in danger of your life, you will no longer care about anything else. You will immediately report that I am your master and you should also go to me immediately. Just be the master and make the decision for you."
After thinking carefully for a long time, Murong Haoran suddenly leaned forward solemnly, stared at Qin Huayi's eyes, and explained seriously. No wonder he always felt that he had ignored something very important. It turned out that he had forgotten this. Although in the upper and lower courts, he was still a little clear about the suppression and exclusion of freshmen without backgrounds, not to mention that there were three Qin siblings who were eyeing each other.
"Teacher, do you... have any feelings for the Light Academy? Do you believe in the Light God? Have you ever seen the Pope of Light?" Looking at Murong Haoran who was dedicated to protecting himself, Qin Huayi finally asked the question he wanted to ask the most.
Because his ultimate goal is to subvert the Academy of Light, kill the Pope of Light, and make all this disappear completely. Murong was able to treat him like this, which made him even more worried. If Murong Haoran was very loyal to the Academy of Light and Pope of Light, what should he do?
He could not imagine how he would face the Murong Haoran, who taught him like a kind father, if it was really the day to challenge the God of Light, faced with the face of this Murong Haoran in front of him who taught him like a kind father...
"Haha, I have never seen the Pope. I can't talk about any feelings for the Academy of Light. I became a monk and came to the Academy of Light. Both sides just took their own needs. As for the God of Light?" Murong Haoran sneered and said, "That's all the charlatans who are lying to people. The church established a huge theocratic institution by gathering faith. This kind of theocratic power over imperial power is actually very dangerous. And I guess that after the light shining continent gathers the faith of countless billions of people, it will produce a very powerful will. Maybe the Pope of Light, or a person who is more powerful than the Pope of Light, is absorbing this kind of will for one's own practice."
"Of course, this is all speculation of the master. In fact, there are many strong people on the mainland, including some sects and families, and even royal families, who only believe in the God of Light on the surface. After all, the God of Light is just a myth. No one has seen him really come, and no one has ever really gained his benefits. Only those civilians, those suffering civilians, will be grateful to the God of Light on the ground and blindly believe in his existence after receiving some alms from the church's elucidation."
"Will human faith produce vows?" Qin Huayi's heart was finally completely put into his stomach. What he had been worried about was finally no longer a problem, which made him very happy.
"Well, this is a guess for the teacher. The church has stood for thousands of years and has developed so many believers, and they are disdainful of the imperial power in the world. It is obviously impossible without a goal."
Murong Haoran stopped talking at this point, waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't talk about these, be careful of the ears of the wall. Let's say these are already blasphemy of the God of Light, and it will be a big problem to be heard by others."
"Teacher, I heard Brother Jin talk about the Supreme Immortality. Is the Pope the Supreme Immortal?" Qin Huayi has gained some knowledge these days and even the Supreme Immortal knows it.
"It should be." Murong Haoran replied.
"What is the Supreme Immortal? Flying in the sky and hiding in the earth, omnipotent?"
"Of course not." Murong Haoran said: "I have seen a noble immortal, the ancestor of the Jin family. He came back once decades ago. As for his magical powers, I don't know, I only know that he is coming and going without a trace, flying in the clouds and fog."
"After the Ninth Stage of the Heavenly Level, it is the Supreme Immortal, which is actually called Xuanxian. Although we don't see them often, these Supreme Immortals do exist. The five empires have Supreme Immortals as backstages. The Jin family has not fallen for thousands of years, and it is because their Supreme Immortal Ancestor just doesn't know where this Supreme Immortal has gone now."
There was a hint of yearning, but then I felt relieved. Murong Haoran looked at his beloved disciple's shocked and expectant look and couldn't help but feel a little funny: "We have no way to know the world of the immortals. They are immortals and will not easily ask about ordinary things."
"So there are really great immortals in this world!" Qin Hua took a deep breath. The great immortals are not humans, but existences that transcend humans. They are very mysterious and powerful, so powerful that they can never destroy an empire.
"Teacher, how old is Xuanhuang Continent?" Qin Huayi asked again. He was like a sensible child, wanting to know everything.
Murong Haoran shook his head: "I don't know how big the master is. I only know that our five empires are all in the southernmost part of the fog forest. Over the years, only the immortals may have been to the northernmost part of the fog forest. What kind of world is there and what kind of empires there are, we don't know. The fog forest runs through the east and west and is connected to the five empires. No one knows how big the forest is. I have also heard of some strong men who have gone deep into the forest, but few people can come back alive. Even if some people come back alive, they just claim that they have never walked out of the fog forest. It seems that this forest is like a maze and will never reach the end. Even the strongest men who can fly in the ninth stage of the heavenly stage cannot fly over."
Murong Haoran said everything he knew to Qin Hua very much like this living encyclopedia. Although Qin Huayi had not told him his true plans and thoughts, Murong Haoran could vaguely guess a few points.
He knew that Qin Huayi's idea was crazy, but he did not find a way to persuade or change anything. Every man has his own ideals and ambitions in his heart. No matter how difficult and dangerous it is to realize this ideal, as an elder and a teacher, he must respect the other party's decision except to help him become strong.
"Of course, there are countless miracles, countless strange things, treasures, remains of powerful people for countless years, etc. So every year, countless people go deep into the forest to explore treasures through the borders of various empires. It seems that Jin Biao's ancestor got treasures in the depths of the forest, so he became the immortal."
"I'm so eager..." Qin Hua's mouth was dry and his heart beat like a drum when he heard it. He felt like he was listening to a book of heaven. He felt that this world was so magical.
In a flash, two days passed quickly. Qin Huayi and Murong Haoran chatted for two days and two nights. Qin Hua was like a traveler who had been trekking but endured the long hunger. He greedily absorbed everything Murong Haoran said, asking whatever he thought of, and Murong Haoran happily told him everything he knew without reservation, and told a lot of legends that had not been confirmed as jokes.
At noon on the third day of the ferry sailing, just as Qin Huayi and Murong Haoran were having an excitement, suddenly, the hull made a shocking sound, and then the ferry began to shake violently.
At the same time, a thick and powerful voice also sounded: "All new students obey orders, and they are still some distance away from the coast of the Yamato Empire, but now the ship is about to sink, so you must jump into the sea to swim to the Yamato Coast. Also, the top ten to the top one hundred to reach the coast will have a heavy reward, and the last fifty to the next fifty will directly cancel the qualification of the new students and send them back to the Tianxuan Empire. Those who were unfortunately drowned will be directly harvested back to the academy to feed the bears!"
