C173 Don't Come Afraid of Death

Don't be afraid to die.

Hehe, master, it's not like what you think. As long as you become a student of the Azure Dragon School, you can still leave. Other than leaving the Azure Dragon School's exam every year, even if you have private matters, you can leave the Azure Dragon School.

Liu Mengchen had also thought of entering the Azure Dragon School, so she had asked for quite a lot of information about the Azure Dragon School.

"If that's the case, then I'm really interested in going over to take a look." Ye Feng decided to enter the Azure Dragon School. He felt that he had always been taking this unorthodox path, and since his cultivation wasn't too clear, he might as well enter the Azure Dragon School to look for some opportunities.

Every cultivator had their own direction of cultivation, or rather, a focused cultivation technique.

But then again, the cultivation level of the Wanghai Sect's Sect Leader was only aurine stage, how could the Wanghai Sect have any better cultivation technique? With the decline of the Wanghai Sect, some cultivation techniques passed down since ancient times had disappeared.

Ye Feng believed that he had only grasped the strange movement skill taught to him by Xue Rengui and the Spatial Compression Technique. In terms of attacking, he only relied on the combination of the strange movement skill and the powerful spirit energy.

If it was when his cultivation was low, then it would be fine, but as his vision opened up, Ye Feng felt that the skills he had mastered were too simple and he didn't have any skills to use in attacking.

Especially since every time he was chased around the world, he would want to obtain a cultivation technique that suited him.

Each sect had their own cultivation technique. Not only did they have secret movement techniques, they also had offensive techniques.

But which sect wasn't so loyal to their own treasures that they wouldn't let others see their secret technique. Ye Feng also didn't find any secret techniques among the several forces that he had destroyed, so he probably passed them down verbally to prevent them from leaking out one day.

It was said that in the past, most forces would record their cultivation techniques on a special spirit animal skin. Through this inheritance, one would be able to maintain their cultivation techniques in perfect condition, making it more suitable for the later generation to practice.

However, in an unknown era, a godly thief that could shake the cultivation world suddenly appeared. The appearance of this godly thief caused great waves in the cultivation world, even causing immeasurable losses.

The Divine Thief had stolen over a thousand cultivation techniques. He thought that they would be useful, so he decided to keep them. However, in his eyes, anything that would be of no use to him had been destroyed.

The loss of more than a thousand cultivation techniques had caused quite a shock. The entire cultivation world was rounding up the entire god thief, and he was now considered the public enemy of the cultivation world.

However, even after many years, he was still unable to capture him. Instead, the secret manuals of other sects were gradually stolen by him as well.

In order not to spread the sect's cultivation technique manuals, all the sects had to think of this method, which was to destroy all their cultivation technique manuals. If the younger generation wanted to practice their own sect's techniques, they could only learn from their seniors, and only those with strong super power defenses and no way to enter the sect could be preserved.

Of course, people from small sects like the Wanghai Sect were not interested in them at all. It was just a small power within the Liang.

After who knows how many years had passed, the remains of the God Thief were discovered, but the techniques he stole no longer existed, they were all destroyed before he passed away.

From his last words, people learned that back then, he was born into a low family, that his parents were not around, and that he had gone through many hardships in his life. He had been to countless sects, and he wanted to enter them to become a cultivator to change his fate.

However, to his disappointment, no sect took him in. It was said that his physique was rather special and not suitable for cultivation.

He was not willing to die just like this. After wandering for a few years, he finally joined a sect. He thought that with this, he would be able to become a cultivator that could fly in the sky.

Destiny had once again played tricks on him. That sect did not want to nurture him at all, but rather had an elder who had taken a fancy to his body. That elder cultivated a kind of demonic art and suffered certain bodily harm in order to use his body to accept his primordial spirit to become a strong warrior and nurture him as though he was a cauldron.

Later on, when the elder was trying to transfer his origin soul, something happened and the origin soul was devoured by him, resulting in his cultivation level becoming the result.

But after that, under the influence of demonic arts and humiliation, his character changed drastically.

The sects that had rejected him back then all suffered from his revenge, which allowed them to steal and destroy all of their cultivation techniques and secret manuals.

This was a secret passage from many years ago, but after that, the various sects changed their methods of passing down cultivation techniques. Most of them were passed down through mouth to mouth, to prevent the loss of their own cultivation techniques.

And the consequences of doing so were very serious. Some of the shocking cultivation techniques had gradually disappeared into the legacy, until they completely disappeared. It was said that before the appearance of the Divine Thief, there were many different types of cultivation techniques on the continent.

Following the disappearance of the cultivation technique, the probability of the strong appearing became smaller and smaller. Back then, cultivators with Infant stage could be seen everywhere on the continent, just like the current Foundation Establishment stage.

It could be seen how much of an impact the theft had on future generations.

As for Ye Feng and the others.

After leaving the Sunset City, they headed towards the Sword Stronghold.

The Jia Jian Prefecture was thousands of miles away from the Great He Province. Ye Feng did not stop on the road, but he still needed nearly a month to reach the borders of the Jia Jian Prefecture.

When he arrived at the borders of the Sword Sing Prefecture, he discovered something different.

Ye Feng discovered that many cultivators were rushing here from all directions, and should be rushing to the Azure Dragon School. After all, this was the academic hall of the cultivation world, and on the way, Ye Feng heard people talking about it.

This made Ye Feng yearn even more.

Even if he couldn't enter the Azure Dragon School, he could be considered to have participated in a great conference in the cultivation world.

This general assembly had a different meaning to it. The people that came here were all the young elites of the cultivation world. Each of them were the elites of their sects and clans, and they were all considered peerless geniuses.

Many of them would be the future leaders of their respective powers, and there would be even more famous experts that would appear on the continent.

There was no need to specially inquire about the location of the Azure Dragon School. As long as one followed behind other cultivators, one could find the Azure Dragon School's location.

Ye Feng, who was worried about not knowing the location of the Azure Dragon School, also followed the other cultivators.

Many days later, more and more cultivators flew by, heading towards the depths of the Jian Province.

This was a mountain range. As soon as Ye Feng entered this mountain range, he felt a unique aura.

What a dense Spiritual Qi. The Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth here is much denser than other places. Cultivating here for a year is comparable to cultivating elsewhere for a year and a half.

It seemed that the Azure Dragon School was truly a mysterious place. Even the location was so particular.

As he went deeper into the mountain range, Ye Feng discovered that it seemed endless. If he didn't follow behind someone else, he would definitely get lost. As he flew in the air, he could see mountains one after another.

The mountains were covered with dense, ancient trees. On the ground, there were all sorts of spirit medicines. At the same time, there were all kinds of spirit beasts living here.

An extremely terrifying aura came from the ground. Some of them were comparable to Infant stage experts, and some were even above the level of their Infant stage.

Suddenly, a cultivator with sharp eyes noticed a spiritual herb growing on the ground and immediately descended.

This was a peerless spiritual herb that could not be seen anywhere else. The cultivator excitedly descended his flying sword to pick it.

"Pfft!" With a flash of light, the cultivator transformed into a pile of flesh and blood before he could even react.

A ball of light shot out from the mouth of a huge deer-headed beast and landed on the cultivator's body.

Ye Feng quickly increased his speed and dodged the monsters.

"Master, there's no need to panic. All the spirit beasts won't attack us at this time. Rest assured." Liu Mengchen said.

"Oh? "Why is that so? But didn't the cultivator just die in the mouth of the monster?" Ye Feng asked in confusion.

"He deserves to die. He actually fell to his death due to his lack of greed. No one can be blamed for that." Liu Mengchen said.

"What do you mean?" Ye Feng didn't understand.

"Although the cultivation of the Spiritual Beasts below is extremely high and we would usually be attacked when we passed by, it's different now. Every time the Azure Dragon School opens, the Spiritual Beasts would obediently lie on the ground and let us pass through in the air." Liu Mengchen explained.

"So you're saying, we can fly in the sky but we can't land on the ground. As long as we reach the ground, we will be attacked." Liu Mang asked.

"Right, it's like this. The Azure Dragon School has set a rule for the Spirit Beasts here. As long as the Azure Dragon School opens, all Spirit Beasts are not allowed to harm the cultivators flying in the air until the Azure Dragon School closes." Liu Mengchen was quite familiar with the Azure Dragon School.

It seemed that the cultivator from before had died due to greed.

Ye Feng was also a money grubber, but he knew what he had to do at this time. He had come for that Azure Dragon School, not to steal treasures, so he had no interest in the spiritual medicines on the ground.

Most cultivators knew of this rule and only a few didn't understand it. Moreover, at this moment, there were also some who were greedy and were attacked by the spirit beasts on the ground.

Ye Feng discovered a very strange phenomenon. Most of the cultivators flying in the sky were all alone, and there were no high-level cultivators protecting them.

Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case since they entered this mountain range. Many cultivators had people protecting them, as if the parents were sending their children to school. Could it be that this was the school's territory and parents were not allowed to enter?

He passed the doubts in his heart to Liu Mengchen.

Liu Mengchen smiled. "Actually, it's very simple. It's not that they don't want to enter, but it's because of the rules set by the Azure Dragon School."

"Oh? Could it be that the Azure Dragon School does not allow anyone other than the cultivators who have come to register? " Wu Liang asked, if that was the case, then it would be troublesome, they could only enter Ye Feng's internal world to hide.

That's not true. The Azure Dragon School and the Spiritual Beasts agreed that as long as the Azure Dragon School closes, all of the cultivators would be dealt with by the Spiritual Beasts and if one wanted to enter the Azure Dragon School, they would need to go through a necessary exam. Those who failed the exam could not enter, and once the exam ended, the Azure Dragon School would close.

Liu Mengchen looked at the few of them and said, "Look at the rules. Who dares to enter? Who knows when the Azure Dragon School's exam will end. If you come out a little bit late, wouldn't that just be killing you here?"

"What about those who haven't passed the examination?" Liu Mang was quite quick-witted and immediately thought of the most important problem.

"The Azure Dragon School doesn't care that you can't pass the exam. You can leave on your own, but the prerequisite is that you have to pass through this endless mountain range and not get killed by the spirit beasts."

"Heavens, this rule is truly ruthless. Doesn't that mean those who can't pass the exam become food for Spirit Beasts?" Wu Liang had a look of disbelief in his eyes.

"It won't be that easy to enter the Azure Dragon School. First, it will be a fair competition. If you can't pass the exam with your ability, then there's only one way out. Death." This is also where the Azure Dragon School is different from others. Not everyone accepts this place. If you don't have this confidence, don't come.

Ye Feng thought silently. It was just as Liu Mengchen had said. If one did not have the confidence and confidence to win, and lacked the determination to not fear death, coming to the Azure Dragon School to register was truly a dead end.

Even before arriving at the Azure Dragon School, Ye Feng's interest had already increased.

The Azure Dragon School was indeed different.
