Chapter 15 Viper
update icon Updated at 2026/1/3 23:00:02

Located at an altitude of three thousand meters where the borders of the Western State and the ancient Ye Family North Domain meet, stands the head of the four strongest pavilions on the continent - The Wind Ling Pavilion!

(Water Whale)

"Wu wu wu!"

Dragon Ling teased as he sat opposite Juxi blowing air towards his face, trying to amuse him, "Wow wow wow, I have been the Pope for so many years and I have never seen such a beautiful man. If I can wake up one day, I will definitely take him as my concubine, hahaha!"

Of course, Dragon Ling was not referring to Juxi, but to Lin Ye Yun, who controlled the huge blue whale under his feet.

The new teacher with shoulder-length hair and a heroic air between his brows and eyes.

More importantly, she almost took Dragon Ling's soul away. It's hard to say if this is a metaphor, as she was actually a soul herself.

Juxi, who was immune to all this, found it annoying, feeling like throwing the trash away. Fortunately, he had a way to deal with this troublemaker.

Just as Juxi lifted the Dragon Ball with one hand, Dragon Ling was instantly swept away by an invisible vortex, still cursing before leaving, "You little brat, I curse you."

What a nuisance! Juxi suppressed the anger in his heart and complained.

But once Dragon Ling was gone, Lin Ye Yun's imposing manner made Juxi extremely nervous.

Indeed, a top power from the desolate mainland, his boundless level was a first for Juxi! (Except for Dragon Ling and the master at home...oh, that seems quite common)

To be precise, Juxi and Ye Na experienced the authority of a boundless level power for the first time. His heart was instantly tense.

Unlike Juxi, Ren quickly befriended Lin Ye Yun, chatting leisurely.

Ye Na and Juxi, not to mention Nine Hearts, were riding a Nine Hearts-level spirit beast!

"Don't be surprised, this illusion beast is actually a friendly non-combat auxiliary beast."

Lin Ye Yun called it an auxiliary beast? Juxi scratched his head and concluded, "Teacher, did you misspeak? It should be a spirit beast."

Juxi nervously corrected Lin Ye Yun's explanation.

"Hehe, Xi is really diligent and eager to learn. Comparatively, illusion beasts are much rarer than spiritual beasts."

Lin Ye Yun patiently explained, showing no signs of anger at Juxi's incorrect explanation, which warmed his heart.

"Don't underestimate illusion beasts, they can assist warriors at the same level in defeating boundless-level evil spirits!"

It seemed like the Water Whale was not just Lin Ye Yun's pride, but also the guardian spirit of the Wind Ling Pavilion.

Unexpectedly, this teacher's thorny and fierce style at first was completely different from a very fun person.

To break the silence, Ren asked curiously, "Does the master have someone they like?"

Juxi sighed inwardly, feeling that this girl had touched upon a sensitive topic.

As Lin Ye Yun talked about someone they liked, their expression changed from disdain to laughter.

Yet, there was no sign of anger as expected, but a gentle statement, "My big brother and I were once recognized as childhood genius brothers, but unfortunately, we both fell in love with the same woman. What do you think we should do?"

Juxi, keeping his past wisdom, knew he had to keep his mouth shut.

Ren and Ye Na, on the other hand, were completely clueless and curiously listened to Lin Ye Yun narrating his romantic story.

But it seemed he didn't want to share, as he steered the Water Whale with a sorrowful look, "Tsk! How can you little kids who haven't grown any hair understand? Hahaha!"

Yeyun has realized that he has some connection with these little brats.

"Oh! Are you my grandparents reincarnated?" he asked.

Unfortunately, every time Yeyun hesitated a bit, he would transform into a cute appearance and act spoiled, saying, "Teacher, tell us a story!"

"Uh... can I?"

Yeyun's face was as cute as a child, definitely having the temperament of a girl. He closed his eyes, scratched his head, and said, "I met my eldest brother when we were both enrolled in the Holy God Academy ten years ago."

As he continued, he recalled the past, "Back then, anyone above the age of twenty-five from the three major empires had to join the academy, though it's not as strict now. Our favorite thing was to bully the little leaders of some church, but we ended up annoying the church so much that they came looking for us! Hehe!"

Laughter echoed across the sky, leaving everyone else puzzled.

Yeyun simply yawned and said: "The former Godrealm was not called Godrealm, but the Holy Saints...”

"Teacher, you're changing the subject on purpose! Stop beating around the bush," Ren finally got tired of the extremely boring story and cried while grabbing Yeyun's ear.

Among the three present, Juxi and Ren were completely absorbed, but for little Yena, it was like water off a duck's back.

Yena, who was most afraid of the teacher, also raised her tiny fist at some point to protest like a primary school student.

"Yes, a teacher should be truthful and not deceive their disciples!"

The teacher was a bit more powerful, but in terms of character, he was quite amiable and close to his students.

"Girls! The narrative isn't finished yet, so be patient.” Yeyun tried to get to the point quickly to spare his ears.

"In the Anti-Ping Rebellion, we met the gentle, beautiful, and generous commander of the Holy Army, Miss Ailian."

The teacher's description of Ailian made Juxi shudder in disgust.

The dangerous aura in the clouds grew heavier, and the abundant spiritual energy could hide the Nebula.

In the clouds, countless heads seductively mesmerized everyone, with Juxi estimating their numbers to be at least a hundred!

"Guests of the Wind Hall! You've entered the territory of the Northern Domain, so you shall all stay forever!"

A sinister voice echoed in the air.

Just when everyone was in extreme panic, Yeyun resolutely stood at the front of his mount, hands clasped behind his back, and said, "I recognize the voice of the Second Elder of the Ye Family, Elder Ye Man, right?"

"...”

Yeyun sneered at the silence, "Correct guess, huh."

"And you are?”

The Second Elder thought, could the other party discern people just by sensing their aura? If so, besides the Chief and Deputy Chiefs of the Wind Hall, who else could it be?

"Ah, don't worry, I'm just a junior instructor at the academy, teaching and welcoming new students is my duty."

There was a chilling smile on Yeyun's lips, "So, please make way for us to pass, okay?"

As he finished speaking, the other party seemed to relax their guard against Juxi and the others. The illusionary Nebula formed by the spiritual energy slowly dissipated, and a hundred warriors equipped with mechanical wings had no place to hide in the vast sky.

Leading the group was indeed the old man Elder Ye Man.

Clear moonlight fell on Yeyun and the Second Elder, who, upon recognizing his appearance, suddenly had his pupils contract and tremblingly said, "How could it be... a... poison... snake?"

Without a scream escaping from their throats, the green flames almost instantly dyed the sky a faint green mist, with countless ashes seeping through the poisonous fog drifting between the night sky. Juxi knew in their heart that the Second Elder of the Ye Family had already paid the price of death for their self-serving actions.

The Second Elder, a peak Nine Hearts level cultivator who could be considered a quasi-Boundaryless level warrior, vanished in an instant without even being able to let out a wail, leaving no trace behind, not even their bones - this was why the Boundaryless level was revered by the people!

Beasts and Soul Artifacts were the two main techniques on the continent. Beasts excelled in group attacks, while Soul Artifacts were adept at concentrating their power to inflict the most complete damage on their opponents. However, there were also Spiritually Gifted individuals who possessed spiritual power but couldn't become Celestials, hence they were known as Saints, a prestigious profession that compensated for the shortcomings of Beasts and Soul Artifacts.

The fusion of Beasts and Soul Artifacts was difficult, but Arey had achieved it. Natural dual cultivators like him didn't fall short of the strength of Saints; on the contrary, they left the latter far behind by several streets!

“There are more competitors in your class, so make sure to get along with the other three,” Night Cloud introduced his specialized class, his face glowing with happiness, completely throwing aside the disturbance caused by the Second Elder just a minute ago.

“They are all geniuses considered monstrous among geniuses, otherwise, I wouldn't bother with a group of hopeless waste like you,” the teacher couldn't help but conceal his lies. Juxi sighed helplessly in their heart.

“As for my requirements for you... they are a bit demanding,” Night Cloud's words hid threats in every corner.

"In the future, you must reach the level of the Eighteen Glories of the Holy Imperial Empire."

The Eighteen Glories? Juxi stood up with a hint of confusion and asked, "What are the Eighteen Glories?"

This question left Night Cloud puzzled, as it was once his dream too. So he vaguely replied, "I don't know... but first, you must defeat one of the former Eighteen Glories, right? Of course, you must also be absolutely loyal to the Holy Emperor."

His passionate explanation immediately turned into an impassioned speech.

"You see, His Holiness the Holy Emperor is one of the only two quasi-immortals in the whole country, but... oh, what a pity, what a pity!"

Juxi, still confused, just nodded in agreement.

They didn't quite understand, but fundamentally only the peak Boundaryless experts could, right? The legend of the immortals has long been heard by them.

"What a tragic world!" Night Cloud suddenly spread his arms and embraced the sky, taking a deep breath, full of regret. "Ever since the death of the Pope of the Saints Association, Chaos has ensued among the three major empires, with the newly appointed Pope, Wuyan, far from the strength of the old Pope. The situation has spiraled out of control in the three empires."

So, Night Cloud's goal was to save this continent. Unfortunately, compared to the leaders of the three major empires, his extraordinary talent was nothing. Perhaps he couldn't make up for the gap in strength, but he hoped that his disciples could show their strength and restore peace to the empire.

"The strength of the three major empires is far beyond what we can currently contend with. I've heard that Xi's dream is to enter the Imperial Palace, isn't it?" Night Cloud looked gently at Juxi, who seemed a bit reserved.

"Yeah." Unexpectedly, there was no grand, powerful response, but Juxi's raised eyebrow and unwavering gaze revealed a mature man's confidence.

"I have my own goals, and I must reach that level. To be precise, that's just the first step!"

He clenched his fists in excitement, grateful that he might be the legendary figure who would likely overlook the earth and subvert the laws of the continent in the future!

Not bad, not bad. Maybe he would become an amazing lad in the future.

Night Cloud silently praised in his heart. The realm of immortals is not something ordinary folks can enter and control with ease!

"Haha, great! The Divine Lord will indeed not descend upon mediocre individuals!"
