Chapter 179: First Encounter with the Immortal
"... Taoist companion?"

Ke Luo was stunned: "I'm not interested, and I don't have time."

The crisis in the world of cultivation is imminent, so how could he have the mood to find a Taoist partner?
Women will only affect his cultivation speed.

Liang Xiao did not stop there, and continued: "You should know that I can help people tailor-make exercises, right? Are you interested in getting one?"

Ke Luo, who was about to go down, was startled, and then his breathing became a little rapid: "You can now tailor a technique for people of my level?"

"It's still a little short for now, but if the Enlightenment Tower helps, it should be done within a month."

Liang Xiao had a premonition that once his special golden elixir method was perfected, he would undergo a huge transformation.

Only then, perhaps I can be considered a true god.

And now, his special golden elixir has been woven into seventy layers. As long as he weaves eleven more layers, it will be complete.

"Tower of Enlightenment? That's easy."

Ke Luo said impatiently: "Hurry up and build the ninth branch. The principals of our eight branches are eligible to use the Enlightenment Tower at any time. As long as you build the ninth branch, you will also be eligible."

"Really?" Liang Xiao's heart moved.

"Nonsense, how can this be false? I never joke."

Ke Luo smiled and said, "Establishing a branch school is simple. The only problem is recruiting students. Now that the True Dragon Academy is undergoing reforms and is establishing the True Dragon Dynasty, we are recruiting peerless geniuses everywhere. If you want to recruit students for the ninth branch school, you have to show some real skills."

"Are geniuses rare?" Liang Xiao asked.

"Nonsense, isn't it rare to be called a genius?" Ke Luo was speechless.

Liang Xiao asked back: "What factors do you think Tianjiao possesses?"

"Physical talent, comprehension talent, in addition, there are skills and magic... uh..."

When Ke Luo said this, he was suddenly startled and looked at Liang Xiao in disbelief: "Can you directly shape these factors?"

He suddenly thought of the five people sent by the Eli branch school before. Now those five people have become geniuses.

Especially Cen Yi who followed Liang Xiao. He had roughly looked at Cen Yi's talent at the beginning. It can be said that it was as bad as it could be. He would never be able to reach the foundation-building stage in this lifetime.

The results of it?
After following Liang Xiao, the child is now in the early Nascent Soul stage.

Stronger than his most valued disciples.

Although Chen Lisong has made great progress, he is only in the middle stage of the Golden Core now and is completely incomparable.

Liang Xiao smiled and did not explain: "So you don't have to worry about the enrollment problem."

Liang Xiao said: "The procedures for establishing a branch school and various other matters are, to be honest, very troublesome to me. If possible, I don't want to be the principal of this branch school."

Ke Luo touched his chin and said, "How about this, I'll ask someone to help you deal with it, and you just need to be a hands-off boss."

"Being a hands-off manager...is that okay?" Liang Xiao hesitated.

"If it were anyone else, the headmaster would definitely disagree, but it's different for you."

Ke Luo said: "Although we are considered the best in the world, our only role besides killing enemies is to stay in charge and intimidate the enemy. As for you, you don't even need to kill the enemy. If you occasionally reveal something, it will be enough for countless people to worship you. It's decided."

Holding Liang Xiao's forearm, he quickly descended with Liang Xiao to the top of Xinlingxi Mountain and landed under the pagoda.

"I will ask the headmaster to grant you access to the Enlightenment Tower."

He pointed to the pagoda in front of him and said, "This is a replica of the Enlightenment Pagoda that the headmaster asked me to give you. It was originally a one-time use, but as long as the headmaster gives you the qualifications, you can use it at any time."

"Am I the only one qualified? Can it be given to others?" Liang Xiao asked.

"That's definitely not possible. Because of some special power, after other people enter the tower, they appear in the normal pagoda space and cannot appear in the range of the Enlightenment Tower."

Koro took out his principal token and operated it, probably to communicate with the head principal.

About half a minute later, Liang Xiao suddenly discovered that the pagoda in front of him seemed to have changed and was shrouded by an inexplicable force.

"This is……"

Liang Xiao was doubtful and asked: "The will of the world?"

"The will of the world?"

Ke Luo was surprised and asked, "Are you sure you sensed it right?"

Liang Xiao said uncertainly: "Now this pagoda is covered by a force similar to the will of the world, but unlike the will of the earth, this force is completely incommunicable."

Ke Luo frowned and communicated with the principal using the principal token.

About half a minute later, an astonishing power appeared.

When Liang Xiao looked up, he saw a shadow walking out of the void.

It was a young man wearing a moon-white robe. He was clearly standing there, but he gave people the feeling that he didn't exist at all, as if he was out of this world. "Headmaster."

Ke Luo saluted quickly: "The person next to me is Liang Xiao. Liang Xiao, this is the founder of our Daluo Academy."

"I've met the Headmaster."

Liang Xiao also hurriedly saluted. It was the first time he saw an immortal.

However, he could see that the young man in front of him was just a clone.

"No need to be polite."

The young man smiled a little abnormally, as if he rarely smiled on weekdays, so his smile looked very unnatural: "Liang Xiao, I have heard of you for a long time. After seeing you today, I find that you are indeed extraordinary. I heard from Ke Luo that you can see the nature of the spirit of the Enlightenment Tower?"

"The Spirit of the Enlightenment Tower?"

Liang Xiao was surprised and said, "So that's how it is, but I can only see that the power is very similar to the will of the world, and both contain mysterious power."

The young man nodded: "If I hadn't known the true identity of the Enlightenment Tower long ago, I might not have believed your guess. Perhaps your guess is the truth, and it is also the truth that has troubled me for hundreds of years."

Ke Luo couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Principal, what exactly is the Enlightenment Tower?"

Liang Xiao also listened attentively.

The young man waved his hand, completely shielding the area, and then said: "Liang Xiao should also know about Sanqing Mountain, right?"

"Yes, Principal Koro has already told me." Liang Xiao nodded.

The young man spoke again: "In fact, Sanqing Mountain is inside the Wudao Tower."

"what?!"

Ke Luo was shocked: "Sanqing Mountain is so huge, how is it possible? Didn't you say that the Enlightenment Tower was obtained from Sanqing Mountain?"

The young man ignored Ke Luo and said, "The Enlightenment Tower is a treasure passed down to us by our ancestors. The space inside is almost infinite. I once suspected that the Enlightenment Tower might be the fairyland in myths and legends."

"...The fairyland is inside a pagoda?"

Ke Luo was stunned when he heard this: "How high is the level of the Enlightenment Tower?"

The young man still ignored Ke Luo and looked at Liang Xiao: "I heard that you can communicate with the will of the earth, then can you communicate with the spirit of the Enlightenment Tower? If the spirit of the Enlightenment Tower is also the will of the world."

Liang Xiao carefully sensed the invisible power on the replica of the Enlightenment Tower he had obtained, and shook his head and said, "Compared with the will of the Earth, this will is very dead. I have never really entered the world inside the Enlightenment Tower, but I guess that there should be no living beings in the world inside the Enlightenment Tower, right?"

"Indeed."

The young man nodded: "When I accidentally opened the Enlightenment Tower, I checked it and found no living creatures inside. Could this be related to the will of the world?"

Liang Xiao explained: "According to my guess, the world will does not exist independently. It needs to rely on the thoughts of the creatures in that world. In other words, the world will is actually an external collection of the thoughts of all living beings. The thoughts of all living beings in that world can affect the world will, but if there are no living beings in that world, the world will will disappear, leaving only a shell and instincts. The will that I sensed seems to be this remaining shell."

"I see. The will of the world is actually related to the thoughts of all living beings?"

The young man seemed very surprised.

Although Liang Xiao was just a child who had not grown up to him, because of Liang Xiao's identity as a "god", he still chose to believe him and did not think that Liang Xiao was talking nonsense.

After thinking for a while, he looked at Liang Xiao again: "You don't have to worry about the matters in the cultivation world for now. This seat and the one at the Red Flame Cultivation Pavilion can still calm things down. Before your strength reaches the immortal level, don't expose yourself to the immortals in the cultivation world, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

"Yes, I know the importance of this." Liang Xiao nodded.

"By the way, your contribution to the Federation regarding the Jindan Cave is enough to earn you this set of 'Escape from Heaven' techniques."

The young man suddenly took out a jade slip emitting golden light and threw it to Liang Xiao: "Although "Duntian" cannot transcend the heaven and earth like "Xiaoyao" and cannot exceed the speed of light, it can travel through space and enter and exit various secret realms. It should be of reference value to you."

"Thank you, Mr. Principal." Liang Xiao took the jade slip and expressed his gratitude.

Ke Luo next to him reminded: "Liang Xiao, although this simplified version of "Escape from Heaven" cannot be compared with the complete version, it..."

"What are you talking about? This is the complete version." The young man interrupted Koro.

Koro: “……?”

The young man asked again: "Liang Xiao, do you think that if I release living beings into the world inside the Enlightenment Tower now, is it possible to awaken the spirit of the Enlightenment Tower?"

"This... I dare not guarantee it, but there should be some hope."

Liang Xiao said: "But if the world inside the Enlightenment Tower is really infinite, the number of living beings needed to awaken the world will of that world would be frighteningly large."

"That's good."

The young man breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I will not disturb your practice anymore. Become stronger as soon as possible."

As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared, just as silently as when he came, without even a ripple in the space.
