Chapter 7

On the mountain path, people were constantly coming down, some looking spirited, others looking weary. Many were discussing the appearance of the python demon.

The teachers had already made a conclusion, and those who had witnessed it with their own eyes doubted whether they had seen it correctly, after all, those python demons that had cultivated to a high level did bear some resemblance to dragons.

Ye Futian saw a familiar figure walking down the mountain. Feng Qingxue's red clothes were a bit dusty, but her beautiful face was still clean and radiant, and her mood seemed quite good as she chatted idly with Murong Qiu beside her.

Seeing Feng Qingxue and Murong Qiu walk down the mountain, some people couldn't help but look at Ye Futian, which made him quite depressed.

Feng Qingxue clearly noticed this scene and saw Ye Futian, but her gaze instantly shifted away, seemingly avoiding eye contact with him, and she stopped talking.

Murong Qiu, who was beside her, seemed to sense something. His eyes followed the mountain path down and landed on Ye Futian. His handsome face at seventeen exuded a faint arrogance, and his smiling eyes seemed somewhat dismissive. He only glanced once before shifting his gaze away.

Ye Futian didn't pay much attention to them. He said to Yu Sheng beside him, "If it really is a dragon, would the academy intentionally keep it a secret?"

Yu Sheng pondered for a moment, then nodded seriously and said, "Yes."

"Let's go up the mountain before it's completely cleared out." Ye Futian said, and with a step, he ran up the mountain path.

Many people were stunned by this scene, and Feng Qingxue stood there in a daze, her eyes fixed on Ye Futian running toward her. Had he been affected by something?

As Ye Futian was about to reach her, Feng Qingxue's beautiful eyes stared at him, her lips moved slightly, and she was about to say something, but then she saw Ye Futian pass by her directly, clearly not heading for her.

Yu Sheng's sharp gaze swept over Feng Qingxue and Murong Qiu beside her as he passed by.

"What are they doing?" The others clearly realized they had misunderstood. Ye Futian and Yu Sheng were actually going up the mountain at this time?

"Are they crazy? They didn't go before, and now with the python demon appearing, everyone is going down the mountain, but they are running up?" Many people were puzzled. Ye Futian didn't know, but he really wanted to see the legendary dragon. The Great Freedom Contemplation Method could benefit from observing birds and beasts; what would happen if he observed a dragon?

Yu Sheng felt the same way, wanting to see what a dragon looked like.

The main path up the mountain was blocked, with senior students from the Qingzhou Academy guarding it, allowing only people to go down, not up. Fortunately, Ye Futian and Yu Sheng were prepared and didn't approach but instead took a small path to go up the mountain.

Along the way, there were checkpoints everywhere. The more there were, the more their curiosity grew, and the more they were convinced of their guess.

In the mountains, amidst the forest, the two quietly sneaked around. Yu Sheng asked, "It's hard to find this way. Which direction should we go?"

"Where there are the most people blocking, that's where we should go." Ye Futian's eyes gleamed, and Yu Sheng's eyes lit up as they continued to sneak toward the most heavily blocked area.

Time passed bit by bit, the sun set, and night fell, making it easier for the two to move.

"It seems there are fewer people. We might be in the core area. Let's wait here and see what happens." Ye Futian leaned against a big tree, closed his eyes, and rested. As the night deepened, this area was eerily quiet, as if no beasts were active here.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, illuminating the dense forest like daylight. At this moment, everyone in this area looked up, their expressions serious.

Is it coming?

"Rumble..." Thunder rumbled, and bolts of lightning appeared one after another, becoming more frequent. Ye Futian was excited and nervous at this strange scene.

"It's a dragon, really a dragon." A cry of surprise echoed, and Ye Futian jumped up, his eyes fixed on the sky not far away. There, a giant dragon, thousands of meters long, was circling and flying, disappearing and reappearing in another place in an instant. The rumbling sound grew louder, and this area turned into a world of lightning.

"Dragon." Yu Sheng stared at the sky, unable to describe the shock in his heart with words.

In the sky, figures of powerful individuals appeared, their bodies surrounded by brilliant light, with Dharma images on their backs, looking extremely majestic, like supreme masters standing proudly.

In the void, a figure descended like a bolt of lightning. He looked middle-aged, extremely handsome. When he appeared, many powerful individuals bowed slightly, clearly showing his high status.

"This is not a dragon." This figure crossed his arms and looked up into the void, his first words making everyone tremble.

"This is a dragon's form and aura, deliberately released here." The middle-aged man's eyes were extremely sharp. "To have such a dragon's form and aura, it must come from a true dragon. Who has come to the Tianyaoshan?"

"No wonder it only shows its form and aura without destructive power. If it were a real dragon, we would have been destroyed long ago." A powerful individual in the void said.

"Even if it's not a real dragon, the appearance of a dragon's form in our Qingzhou City is a blessing or a curse." The middle-aged man's eyes were sharp, scanning the area below. He saw several young people in different directions and muttered, "What bold guys."

Below, not only Ye Futian and Yu Sheng had secretly come here, but others had not left either. The hearts of young people are always full of curiosity, especially for legendary things.

"These little brats." A powerful individual beside him cursed, even though the area was sealed, these young guys still managed to sneak in.

At this moment, Ye Futian was completely focused, his eyes only on the dragon in the void. The dragon's tail swayed, it flew in the sky, and its head appeared but not its tail. These scenes continuously impacted his heart.

The Great Freedom Contemplation Method activated, and in his life palace, it seemed as if endless lightning appeared, and a dragon's shadow formed.

Terrifying lightning-type spiritual energy gathered around him, and bolts of lightning moved on his body. His consciousness seemed to be lost, and his pupils were filled only with the dragon.

The scenes before his eyes seemed to be etched into his mind.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning descended, piercing his forehead, and the fierce dragon's shadow was imprinted in his pupils.

"Zzz..." The terrifying lightning power moved on Ye Futian's body, making him endure an extremely powerful force, and he couldn't help but let out a low, deep roar. But at this moment, he couldn't break free from this state, and the dragon's aura was imprinted in his mind.

The dragon's tail swayed, and he saw the majestic dragon charging toward him. In this instant, Ye Futian's body trembled slightly but couldn't move at all.

"Be careful." Yu Sheng, sensing something, shouted, but it was too late. The terrifying dragon's shadow crazily rushed into Ye Futian's forehead, and Ye Futian let out a fierce roar, as if a real dragon was rapidly drilling into his mind, carrying endless lightning.

"Boom." His mind violently trembled, and Ye Futian's consciousness gradually dissipated.

"You have finally grown up." A voice echoed in Ye Futian's mind, and his body fell straight down. At the same time, the strange phenomena in this area disappeared.

"What happened?" The powerful individuals in the void flashed over, their eyes fixed on Ye Futian. One of them cursed, "What just happened?"

"This unlucky kid seems to have been attacked by the dragon's aura." Someone said.

"He's really too bold. Let's quickly check if he's okay."

"He's fine." At this moment, the handsome middle-aged man walked over and said. Yu Sheng, beside Ye Futian, looked up at him. The middle-aged man said, "Hand him over to me temporarily. I'll take him back and check on him."

"Okay." The others nodded, and Yu Sheng looked at him and said, "Senior, can I go with you?"

"Don't worry, he'll be fine. I'm in the academy." The middle-aged man said to Yu Sheng, his eyes having a peculiar charm that made people trust him. Yu Sheng nodded and said, "Thank you, Senior."

...

Ye Futian opened his eyes and felt no pain at all, which made him somewhat surprised.

His consciousness entered his life palace, and indeed, on the ancient tree, there was a lightning area, with a dragon coiling there, extremely majestic.

"Actually, it entered my life palace." Ye Futian's heart trembled. After fainting, he seemed to have heard something, but he couldn't remember it.

Since he truly started practicing, he had fainted twice. Thinking about this, Ye Futian couldn't help but smile bitterly. This was really quite unlucky, but of course, if he could gain such benefits each time he fainted, he wouldn't mind doing it a few more times.

As if sensing something, Ye Futian suddenly sat up and found that the clothes on his body were not his, and this place was clearly not the courtyard he lived in.

Standing up, Ye Futian pushed open the door and walked out. He saw that this was a very quiet and elegant courtyard. In front, there was a pavilion, and a girl was sitting there quietly, as if drawing. Beside her, a middle-aged man was elegantly sipping tea, and the scene was particularly peaceful.

Quietly walking to the pavilion, his eyes fell on what the girl was drawing. It was a special piece of paper, and the girl was not drawing but continuously etching some magical lines, with a faint spiritual energy emanating from it.

"This is a talisman." Ye Futian was somewhat surprised. The girl in front of him could actually etch talismans?

In that case, she must be a talisman engraver, which was too extraordinary, right?

"Have you seen it before?" The handsome middle-aged man put down his teacup and looked at Ye Futian.

"No, but I've seen it in books." Ye Futian said, "This talisman paper is etching a shield, using metal-type spiritual energy, which should be a defensive spell."

"Can you see it?" The middle-aged man was somewhat surprised.

"Yes." Ye Futian nodded. The Great Freedom Contemplation Method was extremely sensitive to spiritual energy.

"Do you want to learn?" The middle-aged man asked with a smile.

"Yes." Ye Futian nodded and immediately bowed to the middle-aged man, saying, "Disciple greets Master."

The action was incredibly quick.

Ye Futian, of course, knew the value of a talisman engraver, a profession rarer and more precious than a mage, with a very high status. A talisman engraver must also be a mage with exceptional talent.

"You are indeed as shameless as the rumors say." The girl put down her pen and looked at Ye Futian.

Ye Futian smiled indifferently, looking at the girl's stunning face, and said, "Fairy, we meet again."
