This is the Alien Immortal School!

A sharp light flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. The content of this jade slip was not much, but every word was a pearl, concisely expressing the system of the Alien Immortal School.

Although the specific method was not described in the jade slip, according to Xu Qing's understanding of cultivation techniques, he could also see one or two.

"This method is similar to the Spirit-Fusion School, but one is storing gods, and the other is fusing gods. The former is possessing a complete human body, outlining the god in the sea of consciousness, with the goal of borrowing the god-storing method to break through and achieve one's own alien immortal."

"And the latter is gradually abandoning the human body, replacing it with a divine body, and finally purely becoming a god, becoming a human god."

"This kind of thinking... is indeed amazing. No wonder Chen Yun said that the Alien Immortal School was once the number one school in the Imperial Academy."

Xu Qing pondered in his heart, then looked at the emptiness around him, understanding that this method must have a fatal flaw. This flaw was the reason for the decline of the Alien Immortal School.

"The requirements for cultivation are probably extremely high!"

"And refining the soul into silk to outline the god or divine creature is itself a huge risk, and the cultivation speed shouldn't be very fast."

"So Chen Yun would say that this school's philosophy is unrealistic."

"Perhaps, no one has succeeded?"

After Xu Qing analyzed it, he looked at the master who was searching for things and raised his own question.

"Who said no one has succeeded?" The Alien Immortal School master's voice carried dissatisfaction, and he hummed.

"Eight thousand years ago, Li Xuanfeng of our Alien Immortal School succeeded in weaving a god in his heart and mind, revealing it on the outside, adding to his combat power, incomparably astonishing."

Speaking of this, the Alien Immortal School master's tone carried pride, but as soon as the voice fell, among the three lazy disciples sitting at the door, one spoke faintly.

"Yeah, Ancestor Li Xuanfeng cultivated for a full thousand years and almost ran out of lifespan before weaving a divine creature god in the Spirit Treasury realm. It is indeed very powerful."

The Alien Immortal School master's eyes widened.

"Although it was slow, after Ancestor Li Xuanfeng succeeded, with the help of the god-storing technique in the sea of consciousness, his combat power was fierce!"

"Yes, yes, yes, and then he was beaten to death by an alien Spirit Treasury cultivator who had cultivated for five hundred years." Another of the three disciples sighed.

The master's eyes widened even more, revealing dissatisfaction.

"And five thousand years ago, Ancestor Chen Daoze of our school, didn't he also succeed? In a single thought, the divine creature stored in the heart and mind covered his whole body, heaven-shaking and earth-shattering."

"Yes, yes, yes, and then Ancestor Chen Daoze couldn't change back... The specimen is still placed under the white tower. Teacher, the Spirit-Fusion School wants to buy it. Should we sell it?" The one in the middle of the three sighed and tried to persuade him.

"Don't mention the Spirit-Fusion School to me. What kind of philosophy is that? Messy. If a monkey puts on human clothes, is it a human!"

The Alien Immortal School master flicked his sleeve, his words carrying strong disdain for the Spirit-Fusion School.

The three disciples sighed, and one of them looked at Xu Qing and sighed.

"This student, I advise you to go quickly. We three can't leave. We were stupid back then, thinking that a declining place must have treasures, thinking of picking up leaks, wanting to burn a cold stove... I didn't expect it, to be fooled by this old guy saying that only core disciples can learn, so we signed a lifetime contract."

"We can't leave, so we can only stay here."

"You shouldn't be from the Imperial Capital, so you don't know the inside story here. I advise you not to be impulsive."

Hearing this, the Alien Immortal School master, whether his masked face changed or not, hummed habitually and squatted down to continue looking for things in the pile of jade slips.

For a time, the entire white tower was quiet.

Xu Qing hesitated, looked at the three disciples, then looked at the Alien Immortal School master, and said goodbye.

Until he walked a hundred feet away, Xu Qing looked back at the Alien Immortal School white tower.

Clearly located in the east of the Imperial Academy, which is of extraordinary significance, and the location is also a prosperous place. It is conceivable that it was extremely lively back then, with many students coming and going.

But now it is empty, the former glory is just the past, and few people ask about it now.

The only three students, judging by their attitude, were telling the truth; they were indeed fooled, and they also contained very strong resentment. As for the master, he must also be guilty, so he could only hum habitually to retain the last bit of face as the master of the Alien Immortal School.

"I don't know what state those two successful ancestors they mentioned were in when they wove the god figure in the sea of consciousness and manifested it on the outside?"

Xu Qing pondered, walked into the crowd, and disappeared.

Time passed, and another half month went by.

For the schools in the Imperial Academy, Xu Qing had basically checked them all. His accumulation of knowledge was increasing day by day, but these were general. His time and energy made it impossible for him to understand every school in detail.

In the end, he didn't choose a school to join.

The point that influenced his choice was that in his mind, he was always pondering about Xia Xian.

These two words seemed to possess some kind of strange power, making his heart always linger around them.

Tracing the root, Xu Qing knew it was the sentence his master said to him after refining the Jin Gang Sect ancestor.

"Forged by the Xia Xian method recorded in ancient books, so I call this object an immortal artifact!"

At this moment, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. In Ning Yan's mansion, Xu Qing sat cross-legged in the courtyard, looking at the bright moon in the firmament, his mind floating with scene after scene since meeting his master.

"At that time, when Master said the two words Xia Xian, I didn't understand, thinking it was just a theory of forging magic tools."

"But after arriving in the Imperial Capital, the conversation with the Third Princess made me have initial doubts, until the experience of a month in this Imperial Academy, especially the Alien Immortal School..."

Moonlight fell on Xu Qing. In this night, it seemed to drape a thin gauze over him, making his whole body emit moonlight. It's just that when this moonlight spread outward for a foot, it became purple.

"Master, why do you know the Xia Xian method... and can master it skillfully."

"That sentence of his at that time, looking at it now, is very much like planting a thought in me, like a seed, making me sprout gradually in the Imperial Capital here as I understand more."

Xu Qing lowered his head, took out the iron sign, and stared at it carefully.

Time passed bit by bit. Half an hour later, footsteps accompanied by a small tune came from outside the mansion.

The Captain's figure returned, swaying.

He was clearly in a beautiful mood and had drunk wine. At this moment, stepping in the moonlight, passing by the courtyard and seeing Xu Qing, he grinned.

"Little Ah Qing, how is your learning in the Imperial Academy recently? I feel like I haven't seen you for a few days."

"Let me tell you, I discovered a good place recently. You know the Red Dust Tower, right." Saying this, the Captain, full of alcohol, walked to Xu Qing's side and patted Xu Qing's shoulder hard.

"The Red Dust Tower is quite good."

Xu Qing raised his head and looked at the Captain.

"I've been there. It was when I left there that I encountered the assassination. I told you."

The Captain blinked and laughed.

"That's right, I went to investigate the assassination you encountered."

After saying that, the Captain took out a pot of wine and handed it to Xu Qing.

In order not to disturb the Eldest Brother's elegance, Xu Qing didn't tell him that the Mud Fox was there.

At this moment, he took the wine and tasted it, feeling faint dizziness.

This is the Immortal Drunk of the Red Dust Tower.

"Something on your mind?" The Captain took his own wine pot, drank a mouthful, looked at Xu Qing, and asked curiously.

Xu Qing thought for a while and spoke softly.

"Eldest Brother, Master... what is his background?"

As soon as Xu Qing's words came out, the hand holding the wine pot on the Captain's side paused. After putting it down, he looked into Xu Qing's eyes.

The four eyes met. Noticing Xu Qing's serious expression, the Captain smiled.

"The old man's background is very mysterious. Look at the disciples he took."

"Me, the number one heaven-proud son of Wanggu Continent!"

Xu Qing blinked and nodded seriously to show agreement.

The Captain was proud and continued to speak.

"You, the number two heaven-proud son of Wanggu Continent!"

"Second Junior Sister, hehe, her marriage is extraordinary. You guessed it too, right? I was a bit suspicious before, but last time I returned to Fenghai County, I specifically verified it."

"And that bad embryo, Third Junior Brother. I tell you, don't look at his low presence now, but I tell you, he is full of tricks and has no small secrets. I suspect... he is related to the Ghost Emperor!"

"And the Ghost Emperor, no one knows his race and background, but his weapon has a God Domain imprint and has killed God Domain cultivators."

"You say, such a great expert back then, how could he have no background? But he just happened to be like this, so I have a bold guess. He might come from..."

The Captain said, raised his hand, and pointed to the firmament.

Xu Qing's pupils shrank. On the firmament, besides the god Remnant Face, there were others in the further starry sky.

"Holy Land!"

The Captain hiccuped and smiled.

"This is my guess. Also, about Master, let me tell you a secret."

"I once saw someone very similar to the old man in a previous life. Not similar in appearance, but that kind of indescribable feeling..."

Hearing this, Xu Qing's gaze narrowed.

"And, when I first apprenticed in this life, I also recalled, it seems I have seen him more than once, but many of my memories have actually been lost."

The Captain shook his head, stood up, and stretched.

"Little Ah Qing, don't think so much. You have to learn from me, just be happy. If you can be happy every day, that is the highest realm of living."

After saying that, the Captain swayed toward the house. After walking seven or eight steps, he paused, stood in the moonlight, and with his back to Xu Qing, a soft voice came out.

"Little Ah Qing, do you remember the words I said beside you when you apprenticed in the Seven Blood Eyes back then."

"One bow to the Ancient Emperor, three bows to heaven and earth, nine bows to Master."

"Ancient Emperor Xuanyou created great achievements, so one bow is needed."

"Heaven and earth are mysterious and yellow, carrying ten thousand things, so three bows are needed."

"But the Ancient Emperor is high and mighty, never favoring you. Heaven and earth are a sea of suffering for all living beings, never saving you. Only Master, in heaven and on earth, favors your present life, saves your next life, does his best, walks the Great Dao together, so you need nine bows!"

In the moonlight, in the courtyard, the Captain's voice contained the feeling of years, echoing in this life.

"In this life, not only are we walking together, but the master's sect is also walking together!"
