Chapter 123: Setting off, be high-profile?
"Cen Yi, follow me."
Seeing that it was already dawn, Liang Xiao stopped comprehending the formation, put away his things, stood up and said to Cen Yi.
"Yes, Mountain Master." Cen Yi quickly stopped practicing, stood up and walked to Liang Xiao, waiting obediently.
Because his main role this time was to break the formation, and the fighting would mostly be handled by other people, Liang Xiao planned to bring Cen Yi with him to let the little maid broaden her horizons.
In addition, if an unexpected situation occurs, he can possess the maid and do it to conceal his tracks.
And the most important point is that there is a very precious Jianmu sapling in the little maid's dantian. In order to avoid accidents, it is better to keep it with her.
Thinking of this in his mind, Liang Xiao immediately opened the formation, took Cen Yi with him using his true energy, took a step forward, and arrived outside Lingxi Mountain.
He adjusted the formation to the mountain-sealing mode, then took Cen Yi and rushed towards the Blood Moon Pagoda at one thousand meter step.
Cen Yi, who was being taken on the journey, was full of surprise. As the granddaughter of a powerful Jindan master, she had been taken by her grandfather to fly at supersonic speed before, but the situation was completely different from now.
In her impression, under supersonic conditions, the ears will become deaf and the body will feel very uncomfortable.
But now she felt that her hearing was still normal, even though their speed had far exceeded the speed of sound.
It seemed that it was not them that were moving, but the space itself.
“Watch more, learn more.”
Liang Xiao reminded: "You also have a talent for space, so you can learn this set of techniques."
"Are you willing to teach this precious technique to Xiaoyi?" Cen Yi asked in surprise.
"why not?"
Liang Xiao said: "You are my personal maid, my spokesperson outside, and my face. The stronger you are, the more face I have."
"Thank you, Mountain Master, for your kindness!" Cen Yi was immediately moved to tears.
"This set of skills was originally called 'Zigzag Steps', but because it was incomplete and I modified it, I renamed it 'Incident Steps'."
Liang Xiao said: "The principle of "Zhi Chi Bu" is to fold space. You already have a basic understanding of space. If you watch more and sense more, it will be easy to learn."
"Yes." Cen Yi hurriedly and carefully sensed Liang Xiao's feet and surroundings, but her face was confused because she could not see anything.
"Don't worry, take your time."
As they were talking, the Blood Moon Pagoda was already in sight.
This speed is indeed much faster than normal flight.
What puzzled Liang Xiao was that there was only the red-haired principal under the Blood Moon Pagoda.
……
Below the Blood Moon Pagoda.
The red-haired principal saw Liang Xiao and the little maid flashing with every step, and he couldn't even see their movement trajectory clearly, so he felt uneasy.
But now that he 'knows the truth', he is no longer as surprised as before.
After all, as the holder of a Shinto status, it seems understandable that he is a little bit miraculous.
If what the Shadow Hall investigated is true, then it is not an exaggeration to say that Liang Xiao is now a young god!
Soon, Liang Xiao brought the little maid to the red-haired principal.
"Is this the Zigzag Step?" asked the red-haired principal.
"Yes, but because Zigzag Steps is incomplete, I modified the content a little bit. Now its name is Within Reach Steps."
Liang Xiao said: "This set of skills can only be learned by people with spiritual roots or other spatial talents. Of course, if you don't have the talent, you can also rely on your understanding to comprehend the power of space, and there is hope to learn it."
The red-haired principal suddenly understood and did not ask any more questions. Instead, he took out a bead and handed it over: "This is a self-defense item that I made specifically for you, the Moonlight Pearl. The strongest one can withstand three full-strength attacks from an ordinary God-Transforming Stage cultivator."
Liang Xiao's face lit up: "Um... do you want money?"
If this kind of treasure cost money, he definitely couldn't afford it.
“…No, it’s free.”
The red-haired principal was speechless. You are a young god, and you still care about money?
At this moment, he suddenly had an idea to record all of Liang Xiao's behaviors when he was weak now.
When Liang Xiao grows up, these records will probably be priceless and become the coveted collection of countless people.
"Thank you, Principal."
Liang Xiao happily took the bead, sensed it, and was immediately surprised: "Runes and formations, and even refining methods are combined to create it? It turns out that runes can also be combined with formations and refining methods."
"..."
The red-haired principal didn't know what to say. This bead was a unique technique he created himself. Even a strong person of the same level might not be able to figure out the principle. But he didn't expect Liang Xiao to see through it at a glance.
If nothing goes wrong, maybe it won’t be long before this guy can copy it and turn his unique technology into cabbage that can be seen everywhere.
"Is this a god? It's really, terrifying!"
With emotion, he said in a deep voice: "This Jindan Cave dispatch mission can be regarded as a joint action of the eight branches, and it is also a competition activity of the eight branches. In addition, the eight branches and the True Dragon Academy will take the opportunity to clean up the members of the Changsheng Sect, and the Federation will also get involved. You contestants are bait, so there is no need to hide your identity when you go out this time."
"Bait?"
Liang Xiao's heart trembled.
Also, the eight major campuses?
So there are eight branches of Daluo Academy in total?
"But don't worry, all you need to do is to travel in a high-profile manner and act in a high-profile manner to lure out the members of the Changsheng Sect. The rest will be taken care of by the strong men."
The red-haired principal explained: "The main function of this 'Moon Pearl' is also useful on the road. If you really enter the outer perimeter of the Golden Core Cave, its effect will be suppressed."
Liang Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He no longer had to directly confront the strong men of the Changsheng Sect.
"Let's go, the others are waiting for you outside Koro City."
The red-haired principal said, "I need to stay at the rear, but Shangguan Liang will follow you secretly. What you need to do is to be high-profile. Don't be afraid of the Changsheng Sect finding out, just be afraid that they dare not come out."
After a pause, he said in a serious tone, "You will be the leader of the Koro branch on this mission. Please be sure to protect all the students. I have personally assigned 360 people to you. If you can bring all of them back safely, I promise to give you 360 chances to enter the Enlightenment Tower."
Three hundred and sixty chances to enter the Enlightenment Tower? !
What a generous reward!
Liang Xiao was overjoyed.
"Don't rush to be happy yet."
The red-haired principal said sternly, "For every death, ten chances will be deducted. If all three hundred and sixty chances are deducted, not only will you have to pay a compensation of 10,000 Green Spirit Coins per person for all the deceased, but you will also lose the opportunity to be the focus of training at the main school."
Liang Xiao's face turned bitter: "Does the principal think too highly of his students? The periphery of the Golden Core Cave should be very dangerous, right? It's normal for people to die when exploring such a dangerous place, right?"
"That's your business."
It was rare to see Liang Xiao's expression like this. The red-haired principal flashed a barely perceptible smile in his eyes and said lightly: "At any time, the gains and losses are equal. Only when you have proved your value can I safely devote resources to you."
"Can I ask what the cultivation levels of the students you arranged are?" Liang Xiao asked.
"The lowest is the late stage of Qi training, and the highest is the peak of foundation building." The red-haired principal replied.
"..."
Liang Xiao was too tired to complain anymore.
That's the Jindan Cave. Why would a Qi training stage person like him join in the fun?
"Okay, let's go. The others are waiting for you ten kilometers due east of Koro City. If you don't know the way, ask Chen Lisong. He knows the way."
The red-haired principal warned, "You must be high-profile. This time, the elimination of the Immortal Cult is of great importance. Even if those lunatics know that you may be bait, they will definitely take action. You don't need to take action in the elimination mission, you just need to be high-profile and hurry on your way."
"……Yes!"
Liang Xiao made a bitter face, and with a thought, he disappeared from the spot with the little maid and left the Koro branch.
As soon as Liang Xiao left, several Yuanying stage teachers appeared.
Teacher Qingfeng couldn't help but ask, "Is it really okay to let them travel in a high-profile manner?"
Because her student Xiong Lifang was also in that team, she was a little worried.
The red-haired principal smiled grimly, "The more high-profile you are, the safer it is, because then the spies hidden in the major forces will not dare to take action. The real senior members of the Changsheng Sect in secret will not waste precious time and opportunities to take action against a group of Foundation Establishment Stage people. Those who dare to take action are basically a group of ordinary members who are regarded as abandoned by the senior members of the Changsheng Sect."
"I see."
"As expected of the principal, he even considered this."
Several people immediately understood.
"Then Principal, when will the plan start?" Teacher Qingfeng asked again.
"We have sent away all those who are not strong enough. Now, we are just waiting for the bad guests to come!"
The red-haired principal looked at the horizon with deep eyes: "Let's get ready. Before moving, we must get rid of the bad guests first."
Silently, a blood-red full moon slowly rose, dyeing the entire Koro branch cave red.
An oppressive atmosphere was brewing in this branch school, as if a storm was about to come.
Thanks to 08a and RaymondTai for their tips.
