Three-dimensional space has six vertical directions.
Up and down, left and right, front and back.
Or.
Southeast, northwest, heaven and earth.
However, there are seven divine pillars. In addition to the six pillars in the three-dimensional space, there is also a fourth-dimensional central pillar.
The central pillar is the core of the Seven Divine Pillars. Even if the other six pillars are destroyed, the central pillar alone can maintain the basic stability of the Three Realms.
Center pillar.
The virtual river inside the pillar wall.
The rolling empty river, the vast water, swallows everything, without beginning or end.
At an unknown place, there is a thin white cloud that remains motionless in the river water, isolating the corrosive river.
The clouds cleared and the sun appeared, and a three-dimensional space appeared.
There is a floating mountain in space.
The mountain is neither big nor high.
The white clouds are lingering and the flying cranes are flying.
There are neat fields at the foot of the mountain, and three or two simple human-shaped armors are working automatically, transplanting rice seedlings, plowing the fields, harvesting wheat, planting vegetables...
There are green bamboos and ancient pines on the mountain, and the tree trunks are like coiled dragons and knotted knots.
There is a very simple Sihe Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, with a peach tree that is thousands of years old planted in the middle.
The flowers keep falling, but they never stop falling.
Academy.
According to legend, there is an existence more powerful than the Palace of the Gods.
The chessboard in the gym stopped at the decisive moment.
The teacher stood on the wooden steps, wearing a gray cloth, holding a cattail leaf fan in his left hand, and his right hand behind his back.
Next to her, the delicate Yan Ji was holding tea.
The teacher is called Old Master.
He is one of the three direct disciples of Qian Yuji and is known as the leader of the Three Pure Ones and the true dean of the seminary.
His cultivation is unfathomable and he has maintained the body of a boy for tens of thousands of years. Few people have seen him do anything.
He only had eleven direct disciples in his life, all of them were boys and had strong fighting prowess, so they were called the Eleven Lone Walkers.
In the garden, beside the peach blossoms, stood seven of the eleven people.
The odd numbers are on the left, the even numbers are on the right, and they all stand respectfully.
They are respectively.
The third disciple, acting dean of the seminary, was named Xuanzi.
The fifth disciple, Thin Monkey.
The seventh disciple is the sword-toucher.
The eighth disciple, the Red Pig Fairy.
The tenth disciple is Lian Chengzi.
Eleven disciples, three of them walking together.
Except for the sixth disciple "Evil Spirit" who only survived in the abyss of Lu Ya's sea of consciousness, the number of ten disciples reached six.
This is the first large-scale gathering in the academy in ten thousand years.
The topic is about the plan of Lu Ya and the Seven Underworld Gods.
The atmosphere was a bit solemn, and even the peach blossoms fell slower than usual.
The old master looked around and saw that six of the ten people had come.
He was really surprised. He didn't expect that his old bones still had such great appeal.
These disciples of his are usually rebellious, but unexpectedly, they are still united enough when something happens.
I was pleasantly surprised, but my wrinkled old face was very gloomy, and my dark eyes were filled with dark clouds, and I said reproachfully:
"So many people didn't come?"
Lian Chengzi, who is in the last row, is the staff officer and liaison officer among the Eleven Lone Walkers. It was he who convened this meeting.
"Fourth Senior Brother is already on his way."
The teacher nodded and looked at the remaining three empty seats.
"Forget it, Di Li... Gelan and Yao aren't here either?"
Gelan is the elder brother of the academy.
Yao is the second senior sister of the academy.
Xuanzi, the third oldest person in the front row, is tall, has a loud and powerful voice, and speaks very nicely.
"This is a good thing. If Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister come, it means that the God Realm is already quite dangerous. If they don't come, we will have the meaning of discussion. If they come, the only way is to fight."
The teacher frowned slightly. The words sounded nice, but I always felt that there was something wrong with the logic.
He reached out to pick up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, glanced at Yan Ji, and suddenly asked:
"By the way, why didn't the evil spirit come?"
Lian Chengzi's voice was low.
"Sixth Senior Brother is dead."
Although this was not the first time he heard the news, the teacher was still furious and broke the quilt with a snap.
"Everyone is dead, why are you still discussing?"
Everyone understands.
The teacher was a virgin who was tens of thousands of years old. He had held back his anger too much and would inevitably have a bad temper, not to mention that the person who died was an evil spirit.
In ancient times, this is the first time that the academy has lost its combat power.
Ming Xuanzi explained:
"The Holy Lady's Palace has recognized Lu Ya's status as the Holy Emperor. There is no reason for us to fight anymore."
With the support of the grumpy teacher, the trio shouted:
"The God King has been missing for so long, and the Holy Lady Palace has seriously neglected its duties. Do we still need to look at their faces?"
As the first academy disciple Lu Ya defeated, seeing the senior brothers fall into Lu Ya's hands one by one, the trio felt much better.
The Red Pig Fairy also echoed:
"Lu Ya has only been in the God Realm for a few days, and it is said that he has already killed two gods. He went on a rampage all the way, defrauding people of food and drink, and even went to the Saintess' Palace to molest the Saint. He committed a heinous crime."
A few days ago, the Red Pig Fairy was trying to start a fight with Lu Ya. He was respectful and obedient to Lu Ya, so that he could save the Yuwen family. But now he shook his head and struck out hard. He must still be worried about the pork issue.
The three of them saw the situation and immediately proposed.
"I am willing to go with the Eighth Senior Brother to catch Liu Xuanye. After catching Liu Xuanye, we can ambush him and set up a perfect trap, and we will surely capture Lu Ya in one fell swoop."
The fifth disciple, Shouhou, who had been dozing off, was awakened by this embarrassing plan.
"Have the Eleven Lone Walkers fallen so far that they need to join forces to deal with an immortal? Or even capture his wife?"
The thin monkey is not a monkey fairy.
It's just that he is too thin, with a short body, long arms, a straight bone shape, short hair, and deep sunken eye sockets, like a monkey, so he is called a thin monkey.
"There are even people who don't dare to take action after meeting each other? They went to the Star Tomb to practice for half a year and still didn't say a word... Where was the pride back then?"
He took the opportunity to ridicule the sword-toucher.
In his opinion, this seventh junior brother should be the strongest player among the academy disciples that Lu Ya has come into contact with.
As a result, he did not dare to take action and failed to effectively test the enemy, which led to him having to attend such a boring gathering despite his busy schedule.
The man who touched the sword said calmly:
"If you meet that man, there are only five people present now."
The thin monkey grinned.
"You don't have much respect for your seniors."
"The only way I respect people is with the sword."
After touching the sword, the man drew his sword and struck the thin monkey on the back of the neck.
brush--
The thin monkey raised his right hand, pinched it twice, and stopped the blade.
The moment of fighting, a huge amount of spiritual pressure was set off, and the clouds and mist dispersed in the direction of the sword blade.
A large amount of water from the Void River poured in, but was evaporated by the even greater spiritual pressure that followed.
The thin monkey was slightly surprised.
"You're close to a higher god. It's amazing. It's amazing. I hope you can keep this decisiveness in dealing with the enemy."
The man who touched the sword said coldly:
"If I use the same sword I used against that man next time to deal with you... you will already be dead."
Thin Monkey smiled exaggeratedly and said:
"Will the next time be one hundred thousand years from now? Your strength can't keep up with your pride."
There was silence in the yard.
When the three of them were walking together, he whispered to Lian Chengzi beside him:
"Can you tell? Which one of them is stronger?"
Lian Chengzi responded softly:
"It is said that the fifth senior brother is no worse than the dean and is good at practical combat skills. If he hadn't climbed the sacred tree to pick peaches..."
Before he finished speaking, Ming Xuanzi shouted loudly.
"Now is not the time for internal strife!"
Many times, Ming Xuanzi has higher prestige than his teacher.
Thin monkey loose fingers.
The man who touched the sword sheathed his sword.
Lian Chengzi remained silent.
Ming Xuanzi continued:
"Leave Lu Ya aside, we still have powerful enemies like the Seven Underworld Gods. These people are mysterious and unpredictable. If we focus all our energy on Lu Ya, these seven people will definitely take advantage of us to achieve our goals."
The trio asked curiously:
"So, what is their purpose? Even taking down the fairy world can't satisfy their appetite?"
Ming Xuanzi sighed.
"No matter what their real purpose is, their first goal must be to destroy the Seven Divine Pillars. We must defend against the enemy in advance."
The thin monkey suddenly laughed.
"Without this Lu Shenghuang to attract attention, these seven people are just a ragtag group of people. How dare they destroy the Seven Divine Pillars?"
The old master shook his head and shook his cattail leaf fan at the same time.
"Although Lu Ya is hateful, we can still talk about it after all. What I'm more worried about is the young man who defeated Di Li."
"young people?"
All six of them were very curious.
At this moment, an old voice came from the horizon.
"No one seems to have informed me of the meeting...Has the old man been expelled from the academy?"
Everyone turned to look.
A sword shadow split open in the clouds.
Following the shadow of the sword, the space was opened like a curtain.
An old man staggered in along the space curtain. His hands and feet seemed not very agile.
Behind the old man, a doll girl arrived first, jumped down, and jumped into the academy space first.
The doll girl looks about five or six years old. Although her figure and facial features are very cute, she is too human-like, which triggers the uncanny valley effect and makes her look particularly scary.
The old man followed behind the puppet, wearing a tattered reed hat and a wooden sword on his waist, and walked slowly from the clouds.
"This is really a rare visitor!"
The skinny monkey doesn't say a word when sleeping, and doesn't even snore. But when he wakes up, he is very chatty, and he especially likes to ridicule his juniors.
Among the eleven lone travelers, the ninth disciple, Di Li, is a very special one.
He is the only person who practices in the true form of a god!
In front of a group of brothers who are clones of gods, there is no doubt that he is the eldest person.
But the time he came down from the sacred tree to practice was only more than five thousand years. According to the time of practice, he is the youngest descendant.
The original gods are not suitable for cultivation. Even Ning Zhongzi, who is as powerful as Ning Zhongzi, can only cultivate to the Immortal Sect under the influence of Lu Ya's pure spiritual power.
Even though Emperor Li is the most talented person among the seven billion gods, compared to ordinary gods, this talent is not even as good as the abandoned people.
Di Li's face, which is older than his teacher's, is precisely because he has put in tens of millions of times more effort than others and has gone through many hardships and hardships.
Hard work pays off. Two thousand years ago, Emperor Li overcame all difficulties and finally reached the demigod realm, and immediately began to complete the task.
His first mission was to go to the abyss to track down the Seven Underworld Gods. However, he was defeated by the leader of the Seven Underworld Gods in the first battle. He relied on the academy's special escape skills to save his life.
After that, he began an even more inhuman practice. Five hundred years ago, he suddenly gained enlightenment and his cultivation advanced so rapidly that the academy was no longer sure of his true strength.
Just because it was too embarrassing to lose to the Seven Underworld Gods, he practiced in the abyss all year round, tracking the Seven Underworld Gods, and rarely returned to the academy.
This time, Lian Chengzi didn't even contact him.
That's why Thin Monkey calls him a rare guest.
Last time, at Shenqu Mountain, because he didn't want to fail easily again, he didn't attack Lu Ya.
But he was sure to fail before taking action, which shows that he is already quite strong.
Unfortunately, only teachers understand this.
"So it turns out that Sixth Senior Brother is dead?"
Di Li slowly walked into the courtyard, looked at the vacant evil spirit position, and sighed.
Then he asked everyone again.
"Didn't some people say that this Lu Ya might be a secret figure in Tianwai Palace or Shenwang Palace?"
The teacher frowned slightly.
Mingxuanzi also noticed that Dili's aura had become much stronger, and his body skills and spiritual pressure were even more subtle.
Lian Chengzi hurriedly explained:
"Sixth Senior Brother's body is still on the sacred tree."
Di Li smiled, only a low laugh was heard, but the smiling face under the bamboo hat was not seen.
"He practices the art of separating evil spirits. Once the evil soul is dispersed, not only will his cultivation be lost, but his tens of thousands of years of memory will not be synchronized. How is it different from death?"
The thin monkey crossed his hands on his chest and sneered.
"Sixth Junior Brother, it's better to take action after all, than someone who pulls the sword halfway and then puts it back into its sheath."
Di Li was not angry either and smiled lovingly.
"As your ancestor, I only have one life. Isn't it common sense not to dare to take action when facing a certain death?"
"Death ending?"
The thin monkey couldn't laugh or cry.
"You are a person who can even defeat the God of Hades. Whoever you meet will not be destined to die?"
Just for a moment.
A rough and withered old hand tore open the space wall in an instant, forcing the thin monkey to lie down. The calluses from the tiger's mouth pressed against the vital gate of the back of the thin monkey's neck, forcing it to lie on the ground, unable to move.
"You really have a sharp tongue, senior!"
"you--"
Thin Monkey was shocked, he couldn't believe his eyes. As a hard-core master of physical arts, he was actually held down by someone with his bare hands, and someone even saw through the position of the life gate, the force and the spiritual pressure.
The whole place was silent.
Despite the element of sneak attack and luck, everyone finally understood what the teacher said before.
Di Li is terrifyingly strong!
It's almost like he's a different person, but looking at his skills, they are indeed the teacher's physical skills...
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Di Li let go of the thin monkey.
"excuse me."
The polite bow made the thin monkey lose his temper and fight back.
Then he said to the teacher:
"Actually, it's very simple. Since this Lu Ya is really strong, why don't the teacher catch him personally?"
Ming Xuanzi's eyes were slightly cold.
"What do you mean?"
The Red Pig Fairy also echoed:
"When the teacher leaves the academy, who will protect the Seven God Pillars?"
Di Li smiled and spread his hands.
"Then please invite Lu Ya to come over."
Everyone fell silent, staring at Di Li without saying a word.
The reason is simple.
The academy has never allowed outsiders to set foot.
Although the teacher is the strongest among the Three Pure Ones, if he takes action personally, there is a high probability that he can capture Lu Ya.
But if they can't take it, the opponent can use the location of the Eye of the Seven Divine Pillars in the academy and take the opportunity to destroy the Seven Divine Pillars.
Although this possibility is extremely small, if it happens, it will be the day when the Three Realms will be destroyed.
It is impossible to take such a risk!
As a disciple of the academy, it is impossible for Di Li not to know this.
The old man named Xuanzi had a slightly gloomy face, showing no anger and self-importance.
"are you serious?"
Di Li smiled and said:
"Didn't you let me come? Aren't you worried at all?"
"what are you saying?"
"Do you think that by working hard step by step and extracting all the energy by exploiting the weak, you can touch the way of heaven and reach eternity? If you want to reach the way of heaven from strength, you are going in the wrong direction, right? Strength is originally prescribed by the way of heaven.
"
"What the hell are you talking about!"
"This guy has rebelled."
This time, Shouhou took action himself, spreading his fingers like a dragnet to catch Di Li.
Di Li drew his sword, and without hesitation or slowness, he cut the thin monkey open with one stroke.
The rushing blood dyed the clouds red.
The cracked Sendai, the sea of qi churned, setting off huge waves.
The thin monkey was killed on the spot without even saying his last words...
The whole audience was shocked!
The teacher closed his eyes and shook his head.
Ming Xuanzi's divine power rose violently and shouted sternly:
"Aren't you a god?!"
The man who touched the sword immediately drew his sword and looked at Di Li indifferently.
"If you really want to rebel, this is your worst moment."
Di Li smiled and opened his bamboo hat, revealing an ordinary young face.
"Listen to the singing of the pines in my hometown."
