Chapter 393 These rumors inevitably reached Haotian Academy.
In the middle realm, the Four Arts appear to be thriving, with many masters of the Four Arts at the sixth and seventh ranks.
But those who reach the seventh rank or above are extremely rare.
Not to mention those of the eighth or ninth rank, they are truly extremely rare.
As for the four divine-level masters, there is currently one of each.
One is the Immortal Emperor Haotian himself, a top-tier immortal array master who is said to have set up god-level arrays.
The other three are all wives of the Jade Emperor.
The Divine Alchemist Zhu Yun was originally the wife of the Immortal Emperor Haotian. It is said that she lived for nearly a million years. The Immortal Emperor Haotian was able to live so long thanks to Divine Alchemist Zhu Yun.
Like the Celestial Emperor Haotian, Zhu Yun is said to have reached the end of her immortal lifespan and is about to enter the cycle of reincarnation.
The Divine Talisman Master Jian is very old, with a lifespan of about 700,000 to 800,000 years. With the help of Zhu Yun's divine pills, he is said to be still vigorous in his old age and can draw a divine talisman from time to time.
The artifact craftswoman Wu Meier is said to be over 500,000 years old, possessing immense strength; even more than ten Grand Luo Golden Immortals couldn't lift a single heavy hammer she wielded. It's rumored that she forged two divine artifacts: one is the imperial chariot ridden by the Jade Emperor, capable of both offense and defense, capable of obliterating a million immortal soldiers under its golden light; the other is the forging hammer Wu Meier herself uses, known as the "Ten Thousand Man Hammer," capable of killing one hundred thousand immortal soldiers with a single strike.
Jian Liao and Wu Meier were two great generals under the Haotian Immortal Emperor, often accompanying him on battles and making countless contributions.
Lu Zichen is a person who plans carefully before acting.
He wanted to learn the art of formations; he was eager to learn.
However, he was also aware of the current chaos in the Middle Realm. If he gained a certain reputation, he would probably have to choose sides and be used by a powerful force.
Otherwise, a rootless and powerless little immortal who had mastered a seventh or eighth-grade array formation would be like a child carrying a gold ingot walking down the street, with the possibility of being wiped out at any time, without the protection of any powerful force.
Therefore, Lu Zichen enrolled in the Divine Array Academy of the Imperial Capital Academy.
With his immortal age of nearly three thousand years, he was just at the age limit for admission to the Divine Array Academy.
His displayed Immortal Lord cultivation and fourth-grade Immortal Array Master rank were not unusual even in the Divine Array Academy.
After all, the Immortal Lord will become the Immortal King.
There is a fixed number of Celestial Kings; there can only be three in the entire Middle Realm.
Countless immortals at the Immortal Lord stage seek to transcend the Four Arts after reaching that stage.
Lu Zichen smoothly entered the Divine Array Academy and became an inconspicuous little array mage.
Yu Wuqing also gained admission to the Divine Talisman Master Academy of the Imperial Capital Academy with the score of a fourth-grade Immortal Talisman Master.
Both of them settled down peacefully in seclusion at the Imperial Capital Academy.
Zhong Lingxin, using the alias Lin Xin again, took advantage of the Imperial Capital Academy's admissions period. Using the Ruyi as a cover, she gained admission to the Imperial Capital Academy with the cultivation of a Luo Tian Shangxian and the achievement of a third-grade immortal array master.
With her bone age of over a thousand years, her current cultivation level and array formation skills are neither good nor bad in the Immortal Realm, which can be considered as average.
When Zhong Lingxin entered Imperial Capital Academy, Lu Zichen had already been studying there for nearly a hundred years.
Over the past century, his array formation skills seem to have remained stagnant, still at the level of a fourth-grade array master.
This is a normal phenomenon at Imperial Capital Academy.
Of the four arts, the improvement of formations is the slowest.
Lu Zichen's performance was not that of a genius, and he quickly faded from the teachers' sight, being regarded as just an ordinary immortal lord who fantasized about attaining the Immortal King realm through the Four Arts.
Not long after Zhong Lingxin entered the Divine Array Academy, she discovered Lu Zichen during one of the academy's classes.
She had intended to acknowledge him, but after several chance encounters over the next few days, she discovered that her master was diligently studying the basics of immortal arrays.
She changed her mind.
Immortals like her and her master, who ascended from the mortal realm, had never systematically studied the knowledge of immortal formations in the immortal world, and they definitely needed to catch up on their studies.
Moreover, Ruyi also told Zhong Lingxin that the management of the Imperial Capital Academy was lenient on the surface but strict in reality.
On the surface, it appears to be a peaceful and harmonious teaching scene.
In reality, there were immortals at the Immortal King level secretly monitoring the students' every move.
The students' learning progress, including fluctuations in their spiritual sense and immortal essence, is all under the surveillance of the Immortal King Realm.
Moreover, there is more than one such Immortal King.
If Zhong Lingxin wants to reunite with her master, she should find an opportunity to do so after leaving the academy.
Zhong Lingxin was a little worried about her master.
With her Ruyi (a magical artifact), she was naturally unafraid of others monitoring her spiritual consciousness and the fluctuations of her immortal essence.
Master and Yu Wuqing, however, did not.
Ruyi told Zhong Lingxin not to worry.
Lu Zichen and Yu Wuqing are both skilled in the Four Arts, and their spiritual senses surpass their own cultivation levels.
Even if they can't defeat the Immortal King who's monitoring them, they still have the ability to detect them.
Zhong Lingxin was relieved.
Now that she's enrolled in the Imperial Academy, she has to seize every opportunity to study.
Every day, she was either in the classroom or in the library.
The Imperial Capital Academy has a rule that students can only read jade slips that are one rank higher than their own.
The reason for doing this is to prevent the student's consciousness from being disturbed by the excessive number of ranks, which could cause unnecessary harm to the student.
Zhong Lingxin was extremely eager to learn and studied diligently, reading every book in the library.
There are many immortals like Zhong Lingxin.
Most of them are poor immortals who can't afford so many cultivation books at home. Now that they have the opportunity, of course they will study them as hard as they can.
Lu Zichen and Yu Wuqing were also mixed in with these poor immortals.
Occasionally, Lu Zichen and Yu Wuqing would exchange their learning experiences.
Most of the time, the two of them don't have time to contact each other.
In fact, if we set aside Emperor Yiren's selfish desire to consolidate power, his practice of establishing academies in various immortal cities was actually beneficial to the Middle Realm.
But once personal interests or power are involved, it becomes difficult to judge whether something is good or bad.
While dealing with the increasingly chaotic Middle Realm, Emperor Yiren was desperately searching for Zhong Lingxin.
During this time, he plundered the good fortune of two Five Paths Purple Immortals.
Both of these immortals with five purple halos were the focus of protection for their respective families and factions.
Emperor Yiren's evil deeds have been exposed.
He kept more than a dozen wives, which was originally a romantic affair, but it was also revealed that he used his wives to do things and make money, rather than for love.
In an instant, the image of Emperor Yiren plummeted among the immortals.
And his deceased wives, many of whom were once other men's wives or childhood sweethearts.
These rumors have exacerbated the decline in Emperor Yiren's image.
Just then, it was suddenly revealed that there was once a female immortal named Rui Rui, who was already an eighth-grade immortal alchemist, but was forced into the void by the immortal emperor Yi Ren.
These rumors inevitably reached Imperial Capital Academy.
After hearing this, Zhong Lingxin pondered for a while.
Although she wanted to seek justice for Rui Rui.
But she was now insignificant and her words carried little weight; she was terrified that if she spoke, she would be killed by Emperor Yiren's shadows.
Therefore, Rui Rui's information was not leaked by her.
The message reveals that others only know Rui Rui as an eighth-grade alchemist, but are unaware that she is already a divine alchemist.
They probably didn't know about Rui Rui's death.
