Book 3: Chapter 9.1: Mystery Academy
After returning to Nine Provinces, Bai Qiuran and Huangfu Feng chose to separate to act.
This was not the time to care about the dispute between Righteous and Evil, so he divided the images recorded on the stone tablets and the inscriptions, as well as the energy stored in the blank spirit stone so that Huangfu Feng would take one back to the Evil Alliance to study. Bai Qiuran himself ran all the way to the Mystery Academy, the sect with the most technical ability among the five major gates of the Righteous Alliance.
The headquarters of Mystery Academy located in Liang Province. It’s different from the other sect’s headquarters, which was the higher the better. The headquarters of Mystery Academy was built in a plain, surrounded by mountains and complex and dense formation protection, fully showed the lonely and awkward character of the tech geeks.
After presenting the jade pendant representing Qingming Sword Sect to the guarding disciple, Bai Qiuran was taken to the reception room by him and then waited for the disciple to report.
A moment later, the disciple came back and respectfully returned Bai Qiuran’s jade pendant to him, and then said:
“Senior, sorry, the dean said he had no time to see you.”
“No time?”
Bai Qiuran blinked.
“As I remembered, he has mastered the spell of making incarnation. If his main body is not free, I can just meet one of his avatars.”
“The dean said that all his avatars are doing very important research work…”
“Then who did you meet?”
“…”
This disciple’s face was embarrassed by struggle and hesitation. After tangling for a moment, he looked around and whispered the truth to Bai Qiuran:
“Well, senior, the dean is actually reluctant to see you. He said that every time you come to Mystery Academy, there is no good thing happens.”
“Really? That’s all right.”
Bai Qiuran took out the shadow stone that recorded the influence of the stele and threw it, and said loudly:
“Since Qiu Yuxuan, the dean of Mystery Academy does not want to see me, our little sect, who has no technical background, can only rely on ourselves to study this image that records the energy and formation of Land Immortal. I wonder if the Jade Tower and Saint Buddha Sect would be interested…”
As he spoke, he turned around, left the reception room, and walked outside the door of Mystery Academy. After two steps, a panic shout came from Mystery Academy.
“Sword Patriarch, please wait!”
The rumbling shock came, and a large group of people ran over from the inside of Mystery Academy towards Bai Qiuran. They were wearing the same clothes and their faces were exactly the same: a handsome young man wearing a single piece of golden glasses.
This group of guys ran to Bai Qiuran, surrounded him, and some even shamelessly hugged Bai Qiuran’s thigh, shouting at him:
“Sword Patriarch, please give me a glance!”
“Qiu Yuxuan.”
Bai Qiuran found the main body among these many incarnations at a glance and said to him:
“Don’t you have no time to see me?”
“Who says that! It’s an honor that Sword Patriarch came to visit, how can I not see?”
Qiu Yuxuan looked at the informed disciple with a straight face.
“Are you slandering me behind my back?”
The disciple panicked and quickly waved his hand:
“Sir, not me, I don’t dare to!”
“Anyway, nevermind these little things. Sword Patriarch, photo stone?”
Countless Qiu Yuxuan around Bai Qiuran reached out to him at the same time, revealing the eyes of longing.
“Please show me.”
“Now you really look like a dog who sees a bone… forget it.”
Bai Qiuran threw the photo stone and blank spirit stone together into Qiu Yuxuan’s hands.
“It’s important. I’m not fooling around with you. The inscription on it has been translated by the fourth elder of our Qingming Sword Sect. Your Mystery Academy has the strongest technical ability. I hope you can find out the efficacy and running situation of the formation, and what is the energy to maintain the operation of the formation in this blank spirit stone. After figuring it out, I hope you can inform me.”
“Of course I will.”
Qiu Yuxuan took two things carefully, and then the surrounding avatars dispersed at once and went back to the Mystery Academy.
“I will summon the elders and disciples to start studying these two things.”
“Then I leave it to you.”
Bai Qiuran nodded to Qiu Yuxuan. Although people have no temperament, as the head of Mystery Academy, his research ability and creative ability were almost unrivaled in Nine Provinces.
“I will go back to Qingming Sword Sect first to see if anything strange has happened in Nine Provinces and Ten Places in the past two days. If you have found any results, you can send someone to notify me.”
