Chapter 76: Boss, Please Accept My Knee
Butcher Old Man knew that Chen Luo's talent in the Array Field was astonishing, and he had always wanted to bring him into the Orthodox Sect. However, after discovering that Chen Luo's talent in cultivation wasn't bad either, he temporarily gave up on the idea. Now that he found out Chen Luo opened up a Dead Sea, he began to persuade him with a bitter tone.
Chen Luo knew that Tu Lao was doing it for his own good, but what could he do? He couldn't say that he had opened up the Spiritual Ocean of the Border, even if he wanted to. Now, Tu Lao probably wouldn't believe him anyway. In desperation, Chen Luo finally said that he would go take the Central Exam first, and then make other decisions if he didn't pass. Hearing this, Tu Lao sighed and agreed, thinking that it was good for Chen Luo to hit a wall and give up on his dream of becoming a great wizard, so that he could devote himself to the Array Master's career later on.
The next day, Wei Tiangong saw him off. The two of them drank freely and told Chen Luo that the Tianqi Pavilion had already established a foothold in the Golden Water Domain. Their next target was the Central Academy's location, the Central Domain. Wei Tiangong said that he had already begun to lay the groundwork in the Central Domain more than a year ago, and once the timing was ripe, the Tianqi Pavilion would descend upon the Central Domain.
Chen Luo didn't know how great Wei Tianlong's abilities were, but he knew that since Wei Tianlong said so, he must be able to do it. As he was about to leave, he gave a gift to Wei Tianlong, which was the Huoyun Essence refined in secret at the small Lingyun Spirit Realm. Seeing this gift, Wei Tianlong became excited and thrilled, almost wanting to shout three times. He only said one sentence to Chen Luo: With this Huoyun Essence, the Heavenly Enlightenment can be advanced by a year, and I will make a bold statement - when you enter the Central Academy, it will also be the time of the Heavenly Enlightenment's descent into the Central Domain.
On the fourth day, Chen set out for the Central Domain to attend the assessment at the Central Academy.
The Central Academy is the most powerful academy in the world, where geniuses from all over the world gather. The wizards who graduate from here are basically the leaders of the major Glory Guilds, Radiant Guards, and Merchant Guilds. That's why the Central Academy is the holy land for all wizard apprentices. Every year, countless apprentices participate in the academy's trial assessment, as long as they are under 18 years old and have reached the second realm, they can participate.
There is still half a month left before the registration deadline for the Central Trial Assessment, and apprentices from all over the place have set off, with some people having arrived in the central domain as early as a month ago.
Chen Luo set out alone this time, because only he in the entire Xiao Jinguo had reached the assessment criteria. Niu Meng had been stuck at the Seven Spiritual Veins for three years and still couldn't open it up. Tu Lao said that after dealing with the Array Tower's affairs, he would take him to find friends to see what was going on.
Early morning, the sun just rises.
Chen Luo set off with only a simple bundle, which contained just a few changes of clothes and some daily necessities, including some spiritual elixirs. Apart from these, he didn't bring anything else. Oh wait, there was one more thing - a token, given to him by Wei Tianlong, which said that the Heavenly Enlightenment Pavilion had a branch in the Central Domain, and as long as he showed the token, he could take spiritual stones from the branch without any limit.
Hush!
The sky-high price of the blue mouse monster, Chen Luo casually took out a spiritual pill and sent it to its mouth, saying: "Later we will take the transmission array, for your safety, this is a sleeping pill, swallow it first and sleep for a while." The blue mouse monster swallowed the spiritual pill and called twice, its head tilted, and fainted.
Arriving at the transmission square, Chen Luo couldn't help but get a headache. From Changxin City to Yuandu, it took more than ten transmissions, and he couldn't imagine how many transmissions it would take to reach the Central Domain, which was 108,000 miles away from Jinshui Domain. Taking this thing was absolutely torture. Although the Array Society had repeatedly announced that the transmission array had been perfected to the extreme and would not cause accidents, these lies could deceive others, but for Chen Luo, a master of array techniques, he knew very well that there was no such thing as an absolutely perfect array in this world, especially this kind of transmission array. If nothing went wrong, it was fine, but once something happened, you couldn't even run away.
But if you don't take the transmission array, what can you do? Even with a flying spirit crane, it's unknown when you'll arrive at the central domain, especially for Chen Luo, who is a road idiot and can't even understand the route on the ground, let alone in the sky.
"Settle down!"
Suddenly hearing someone calling his name, Chen Luo looked around and found that not far away a young man was sitting cross-legged, with a luxurious carriage beside him. The young man wore a white robe, held a long sword in his hand, and had an indifferent expression on his relatively handsome face.
Chen Luo still remembered this guy, who seemed to be called Bai Jian or something.
"I've been waiting for you here for sixteen days, and I finally waited for you." Bai Jian stood up, walked over, and said: "Since you appeared here, it seems that the Sea of Destiny has already been opened."
"What are you waiting for me?" Chen Luo and he were not familiar with each other, they had only met two or three times.
"I, Bai Jian, have also successfully opened up a Spiritual Sea, although it's not as good as your Netherworld Spiritual Sea, but at least it's a rare variant Spiritual Sea that only one in ten thousand people can possess. Moreover, my variant power is very rare and powerful, it's the power of sharpness."
"What's next?" Chen Luo couldn't make out what this guy wanted to do.
"Then? There is no then." Bai Jian said coldly: "I just want to let you know that my mutation power is very formidable."
"You waited for me for over ten days just to say this? Has your brain been kicked by a donkey?" Chen Luo was too lazy to bother with this seemingly brain-damaged guy, and turned to leave, but Bai Jian suddenly darted out to block his way.
Chen's eyebrows rose slightly as he calmly said, "You want to get beaten up or what."
With a "pa" sound, Bai Jian was seen kneeling on one knee, his right hand holding the sword upright, and he said with his head bowed: "Lao Da, please accept my younger brother's kneel."
"Are you kidding me?" Chen Luo was somewhat shocked and couldn't imagine what kind of trick White Sword was playing.
"From being abandoned to starting from scratch, in just five months, he opened up the Five Spiritual Veins, and with each transformation, his powers changed. At Qing Shi Tai, he fought a battle using the Five Spiritual Vein transformations, defeating Zhuo Wei Dong and Gao Fei one after another. Inside the stone room, he used the Seven Spiritual Vein transformations to take on four opponents at once, successively defeating Gao Fei, Wan Li Qun, Fang Hong Guang, and Ye Qing. He intimidated Ding Zi Xuan into speechlessness. At the Jin Shui Conference, he used the Thirty-Six Tiger Soul's power to scare Ye Qing into losing control of his bowels, and with the Thick Earth Soul, he instantly knocked out Ding Zi Xuan. With the Five Great Perfect Spiritual Incantation, he battled Mu Huang, and with the Eight Spiritual Vein transformations, he shocked him so much that blood flowed from his seven apertures."
"I, Bai Jian, have only worshipped two people in my life. The first is Tongtian Laozu, and the second is you. Tongtian Laozu's divine powers are vast and mysterious, coming and going without a shadow or a trace. I, Bai Jian, am not worthy to meet him. You are my second idol. To show my sincerity, please accept my kneel."
It is said that Tongtian Laozu, Chen Luo was really crying and laughing, and hurriedly let him get up. However, Bai Jian said he wouldn't take his knee, and he wouldn't get up. With so many people around, Chen Luo felt a bit embarrassed, and angrily said: "You cut off your own knee and give it to me."
Bai Jian's mouth twitched slightly as he said, "When I told you to take my knee, it wasn't that I wanted to cut it off and give it to you. It was a sign of my respect and admiration for you, and I hope you'll follow me from now on."
Chen Luo turned his head and walked away, but just as he lifted his foot, Bai Jian wrapped his arms around Chen Luo's thighs. Chen Luo's expression froze, and he shouted: "What do you want to do, kid? So many people are watching, they'll think we're made of glass!"
"Please accept my kneecaps as a gift, boss!"
"How am I supposed to take this?"
"As long as the boss agrees, little brother will follow closely and consider it settled."
Looking at the crowd pointing and whispering around him, Chen felt somewhat embarrassed. He nodded reluctantly and agreed. Bai Jian then stood up, pulled over the horse carriage, and said: "Lao Da, get on the carriage. This is a high-end horse carriage I bought at a high price, with twelve formations set up inside. The horses have been trained and can transmit freely."
Chen Luo didn't stand on ceremony and directly got into the horse carriage. Bai Jian raised his whip and shouted loudly, as the horses charged into the transmission array.
The transmission array is transferred with the help of spatial forces. When it was first created, only high-ranking sorcerers could withstand the pressure of space transmission because the transmission array was very simple and had no protective measures. During transmission, the body would be distorted by the pressure of spatial forces, becoming a blur, and would disintegrate into countless particles of light. If something went wrong, the body would be blown away like dust. However, after thousands of years of development, the transmission array has been largely perfected, with many protective measures in place. Now, when transmitting, the body not only won't disintegrate but can also move within a small range. As long as there are no natural disasters, accidents rarely occur.
For several days, Chen Luo and Bai Jian had been transferring through countless transmission arrays. Whenever they were tired, they would find a place to rest. After several days of contact, the two men became familiar with each other. Since Chen Luo accepted his knee, Bai Jian had been serving him wholeheartedly, allowing Chen Luo to live a life of luxury, which was quite comfortable. However, soon enough, Bai Jian expressed that he only admired and wanted to follow Chen Luo, not be his servant or slave. He said that providing a place for Chen Luo to stay and arranging grand meals were already enough, but Chen Luo actually asked him to go fetch water to wash his face? Bai Jian felt that as someone who had opened up the variant spiritual sea, he should have some dignity and not be treated like a slave.
