Chapter 55: Yun Haiyan's Whereabouts

Yang Qi began to inquire about Yun Haiyan's whereabouts.

This was the first major task he had undertaken since arriving at the Tianwei Academy.

The Tianwei Academy was vast and expansive, with buildings stretching for hundreds of miles, and many mysteries within. Finding a person here was like looking for a needle in the sea.

"Yun Haiyan?"

Li He initially shook his head, seemingly unable to recall the name, but after a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up: "I've heard of this person. She's a woman who entered the academy a few months ago, but she wasn't a servant disciple. Instead, she was directly admitted as a key disciple and entered the Elite Academy for training."

"What? Directly into the Elite Academy?"

Yang Qi now knew that the Elite Academy was an extremely high-level institution within the Tianwei Academy, where all the disciples were "Life Seizing" realm experts.

Yun Haiyan definitely couldn't have cultivated to the "Life Seizing" realm, but what merit did she have to enter the Elite Academy? When Yang Qi first met this woman, her cultivation was only at the Sixth Stage of Qi Gong.

Of course, Yang Qi also deeply understood that Yun Haiyan's scheming was unfathomable, and she must have hidden a lot of strength.

However, even if she concealed her strength, she couldn't possibly be a Ninth Stage Qi Master, let alone a "Life Seizing" realm expert.

"It seems to be related to an agreement between the Tianwei Academy and the Sea God Academy." Li He shook his head. "Of course, it's rumored that Yun Haiyan has a special bloodline, making her a unique talent. But these great figures are beyond the reach of servant disciples like us."

"I didn't expect Yun Haiyan to actually enter the Elite Academy for training..." Yang Qi's face darkened.

This was no small matter. With Yang Qi's current strength, he could defeat even ten Qi Masters working together, but to cause trouble in the Elite Academy, where all the students were "Life Seizing" realm experts, would be courting death.

With his Eighth Stage Qi Gong cultivation, he wasn't sure if he could handle a "Life Seizing" realm expert.

"Alright, from today on, you are officially a servant disciple of the Tianwei Academy. I will introduce you to some new senior and junior disciples. We will practice and perform our duties together every day, and there will be a day when we can stand out."

Immediately, Li He introduced Yang Qi to over a dozen other servant disciples and warned him not to wander around. The Tianwei Academy was very complex, and servant disciples only had the right to be obedient and law-abiding, with their activities restricted. Their daily tasks included performing duties, practicing, and studying, with occasional guidance from Qi Masters.

In addition, they occasionally had the opportunity to go on missions arranged by the academy, earning merit points, which could lead to promotions.

Yang Qi also learned that the most important thing in the Tianwei Academy was merit points.

Merit points were earned by completing various sect tasks and making contributions to the sect. For example, if you went out alone and hunted a certain number of demon beasts, contributing their cores to the sect, you could earn merit points. Even wealthy benefactors who directly contributed Qi Gathering Pills to the sect could earn merit points.

These merit points were no small matter.

With enough merit points, one could go to the academy's scripture hall to learn supreme martial arts and Qi Gong, invite top experts to improve one's constitution with true qi, and with a large number of merit points, one could even exchange for various treasures, receive empowerment, and be taught skills by the sect.

This showed the importance of merit points.

Thus, Yang Qi settled down in the Tianwei Academy.

His daily life was very monotonous. Besides standing guard and performing duties, he would return to his room to practice, and occasionally, a few Qi Masters would come to guide his cultivation, which was of little use to Yang Qi.

Servant disciples were the lowest-ranking disciples and had the right to learn the official Qi Gong and martial arts of the Tianwei Academy.

However, Yang Qi didn't care much. He quietly practiced in the Tianwei Academy, refining the "Divine Elephant Imprisoning Hell" technique to greater purity, making his body stronger, and his breathing like a whale drawing water, even capable of absorbing the essence of the sun, moon, and the earth's qi.

For a whole month, he practiced quietly, with no significant events occurring.

During this month of practice, his divine sense grew stronger, and each time he practiced, his soul felt as if it was about to break free, transforming into a divine elephant, sweeping with its long trunk, plucking stars and capturing the moon.

In his room,

Yang Qi sat cross-legged, his true qi boiling within.

Faintly, one could hear the sound of true qi surging in his lower dantian, like boiling lava. If someone were to look at him now, they would see a faint golden layer under his skin, making him no longer a mere flesh and blood body, but a golden body.

The golden nature was imperishable.

An imperishable aura spread around his body.

Originally, the thin layer under his skin was transparent, but now it had turned a color like gold foil.

Clang!

Yang Qi opened his eyes, and with a mouthful of true qi, he swept out, causing a long sword hanging on the wall to unsheathe and continuously hum. Driven by the true qi, it flew over and landed in his palm. The sword was so sharp that it could cut hair, and a deep coldness emanated from it.

This was a treasure sword forged by the Tianwei Academy, containing rare metals, capable of slicing through iron like butter.

Holding the sword, Yang Qi cut into his palm.

A white mark appeared on his skin, but it didn't break.

This was even without the use of true qi.

Clang!

Yang Qi flicked his finger, and the sword broke into several pieces, falling to the ground as a pile of scrap iron.

"Divine Bone Fire, Hell's Flame."

Yang Qi's hand moved rapidly, and a powerful true qi friction generated intense heat, almost melting the ground. The true qi flame reached its peak, and the sword turned into molten iron.

The "Divine Elephant Imprisoning Hell" technique, refined to its extreme, could change the nature of true qi at will, transforming it into an icy hell, a fiery hell, a hell of blades and spears, a hell of mud and mire...

It could freeze a great river or evaporate it instantly.

Now, Yang Qi was practicing this technique, attempting to refine the broken sword and gain some experience in Qi Gong and object perception, to further try to investigate the "Blue Jade Ring" with Qi Gong.

By intuition, he knew the Blue Jade Ring was a treasure.

True qi merged with his perception, penetrating the molten iron of the broken sword. In an instant, Yang Qi felt that the sword contained at least thirty types of rare metals, arranged in a tight structure, making it extremely sharp.

Yang Qi was not a master of refining, but with his powerful true qi, he discovered impurities in the metal structure, making the sword less pure.

With a flick of his hand, powerful true qi erupted, extracting all the impurities from the molten iron, leaving a small pile of dust on the ground.

The molten iron gradually formed a small sword, only seven inches long, like a dagger, landing in Yang Qi's palm, radiating a brilliant light, no longer an ordinary weapon.

A light cut, and the hard rock on the ground split like tofu. The sword's aura, when released, could even penetrate protective true qi.

"What value does this sword have if sold?" Yang Qi carefully stored it away and took out the Blue Jade Ring again.

With a flick of his finger, the Blue Jade Ring floated in the air, supported by true qi.

Yang Qi exhaled, and the true qi formed a furnace below the ring, with flames rising fiercely, roasting the ring.

This time, Yang Qi used all his strength.

Sizzle!

Under the true qi flames, the Blue Jade Ring emitted a mist of water vapor.

The mist carried a strong sea scent, filling the room, and the sound of waves seemed to echo. The ring kept spinning, the mist becoming thicker, and under a strange force, it transformed into a tall human figure.

This figure had a human head and a snake body, holding a trident, looking extremely fierce, and suddenly lunged at Yang Qi with the trident.

With one thrust, a huge wave surged, and Yang Qi felt the entire room transform into a vast sea, with the monster, a sea deity, wielding a trident that seemed to pierce the soul.

He had never seen such powerful momentum!

This momentum had already surpassed the Qi Master realm, left behind by an expert far beyond the Qi Master realm, powerful enough to slay all.

"Bad!"

Yang Qi reacted quickly, his fingers spreading, and the "Divine Elephant Imprisoning Hell" technique burst forth, forming a spear of divine power in his hand. He struck with all his might, the spear transforming in countless ways, colliding with the trident.

"Suppress the hell, demons submit."

Yang Qi was majestic, the spear of divine power piercing through the air, the spear shadow like a mountain, black true qi rolling down like a sky.

"Boundless sea."

The human-headed, snake-bodied monster roared, the trident forming a whirlpool of the sea, huge waves surging, trying to engulf Yang Qi in the whirlpool.

The two experts clashed, and the furniture in the room exploded one after another.

After several moves, Yang Qi burst forth again, the spear of divine power piercing the sky, finally breaking the monster's trident and piercing its body.

The human-headed, snake-bodied monster was actually a human-shaped true qi, left behind by some expert. Not a real person, it was pierced by Yang Qi's spear, emitting a cackling sound, and suddenly rushed into Yang Qi's body along the spear.

In an instant, a cold intent penetrated Yang Qi's body.

It was trying to control his mind and soul.

This human-shaped true qi was of extremely high quality, far surpassing the Qi Master realm, and could even possess a body.

However, as soon as it entered Yang Qi's body, the "Divine Elephant Imprisoning Hell" technique erupted, the aura of suppressing hell flowing through his meridians. The human-shaped true qi screamed in agony: "What kind of Qi Gong is this? Damn, it has the aura of a divine-level Qi Gong..."

In this scream, it was completely melted.

Yang Qi's body, now infused with this human-shaped true qi, began to undergo strange changes.
