Chapter 722

The more concentrated light energy is, the more terrifying it becomes.

Fang Yu also had many insights into light. In the Shrouding the Heavens world, the Radiant Sacred Land he destroyed was world-renowned for its Sacred Light Art. Back then, whenever the Lord of the Radiant Sacred Land went out, he was surrounded by 108 rays of light, appearing like a deity.

Of course, that seemingly miraculous Lord of the Radiant Sacred Land had already been wiped out by Fang Yu, and their Extreme Dao Imperial Weapons had all been seized by Fang Yu.

The great divine ability known as the Sacred Light Art had also been obtained by Fang Yu.

Fang Yu had also obtained several variations of the Primordial Heavenly Dao from Feng Yao-guang. One, the Eye of the Imperial Heaven, was actually a profound mystery of light, while another, the Armor of Bright Light, was an even greater application of light.

By condensing endless light to form rays of light runes, which were then layered to create a suit of Bright Light Armor, the defensive power was unimaginable.

In this human society, light was also one of the most terrifying weapons of destruction.

Just as Fang Yu was pondering, the passenger plane came to a halt. The God of War Lu Gang and Zhu Xi were already waiting below, and as for Hong, he also descended from the plane.

Hong had his own exclusive passenger plane; it was a blood-red triangular fighter jet with smooth lines, looking extremely aesthetically pleasing.

Fang Yu’s expression stirred, and he also walked down from the passenger plane.

As far as his eyes could see, the three disciples he had taken this time—Luo Feng, Deng Jian, and Yan Yan Ruxue—had also descended, looking around the legendary Hongning Base with great curiosity.

"Daoist, please."

Hong walked over and said to Fang Yu.

"Senior, this time we are heading to the 'Elite Training Camp' under the Pavilion Master. This is the world's number one training camp, also known as the 'God of War Preparatory Camp.' Only the most outstanding geniuses in the world have the possibility of coming here to study. Generally speaking, in all of China, only one genius has the opportunity to come here to study each year."

Zhu Xi, an existence who had surpassed the God of War level, added, "If the Daoist sees any geniuses you wish to cultivate, you can say so directly; we will never obstruct you. Being cultivated by the Daoist is a blessing for all of humanity."

"Then I am indeed very curious."

As Fang Yu spoke, he entered the "Elite Training Camp" ahead with Hong, Zhu Xi, and Lu Gang. As far as his eyes could see, there was a giant dragon sculpture at the entrance. A nearly fifty-meter-tall giant black dragon stared at everyone who arrived with a pair of huge dragon eyes, emitting a strong aura of darkness, as if this statue were not a statue at all, but a truly living black dragon.

"It looks like its eyes must be the eyes of a real black dragon for it to emit such an aura. Pavilion Master Hong, I presume you were the one who killed a black dragon?"

Fang Yu’s expression was calm. As he looked, he discovered something different: the rest of the black dragon statue was fake, but its eyes were real.

The ancients spoke of "dotting the eyes of a painted dragon." Now that the eyes of this sculpted black dragon were real, it naturally possessed a powerful pressure, enough to make ordinary martial artists feel a shock to their souls.

"The Daoist has a sharp eye. I once encountered a black dragon on a volcano and killed it. Later, I kept its two eyes and built a sculpture, placing its eyes within it. This allows those youngsters to know the pressure of a King-level monster, preventing them from becoming too arrogant and looking down on others."

Hong laughed.

Both of them looked at the black dragon sculpture. On the dragon scales of the sculpture, there were many display screens recording one name after another.

"No. 1 Renates & Bridge (530321)."

"No. 2 Chu Fang Fang Qiang (540601)"

"No. 3 Eben & Pass (520916)"

……

From top to bottom, each dragon scale had a name, totaling over 180 names.

"Senior, this is the ranking of the entire Elite Training Camp. After elite geniuses from all over the world arrive here, we rank them. The higher the ranking, the more benefits they can obtain. If there is only one unique treasure excavated from ancient civilization ruins, it naturally goes to the number one genius. And if a genius ranks in the bottom three for three consecutive times, they will be eliminated. Our Elite Training Camp does not need geniuses who rest on their laurels. Everyone here needs to train hard so that they can shoulder the mission of maintaining human safety."

Zhu Xi’s voice rang out again.

"This method of cultivation is quite good; it can stimulate a person's fighting spirit."

Fang Yu nodded, expressing his approval of the Elite Training Camp's cultivation method.

This kind of cultivation method was different from that of the Feathered Sect. In the Feathered Sect, as long as one could enter, one would receive the protection of the sect; there was no such thing as an elimination system for those at the bottom.

Clearly, the circumstances of the sects were different.

If Fang Yu were to implement an elimination system for true disciples in the Feathered Sect, he couldn't even imagine to what extent the Feathered Sect would develop or decline.

It was highly likely it would decline.

After all, once an elimination system was implemented, the disciples of the Feathered Sect would have to go out to gain experience and seek opportunities, making them very susceptible to being killed by the Immortal and Demon paths outside.

Of course, having said that, the cultivation speed of the Immortal path was inherently slow. In the original Feathered Sect, it might take hundreds of years to cultivate through a single realm, and for tribulations like the Wind and Fire Great Tribulation, one had to be fully prepared. Implementing an elimination system in an Immortal sect was immature.

This also went against the carefree artistic conception of the Immortal path.

Such a mechanism was not suitable for the Feathered Sect, but it was quite appropriate for this Elite Training Camp. It could make each genius more competitive, and the human race in this world today needed to be competitive to survive better.

The group moved forward.

The entire training camp, while called a training camp, was actually magnificent, making one feel as if they had arrived at a group of ancient palaces. In the distance, one could see all kinds of flowers, trees, and small bridges over flowing water everywhere.

Apart from a few palaces, one could see many pavilions with elegant designs, and from time to time, one could see some young people wearing loose training clothes walking out of the pavilions.

These young people were male and female, of various races, clearly showing that the Elite Training Camp recruited humans from all over the world.

"Daoist, please look. Those young people are all students of my Elite Training Camp. As for that Nine-Story Building, it is where all students learn and train. Some special training rooms are also there."

Zhu Xi pointed to a nine-story giant tower-shaped building in the very center of the training camp. Although that nine-story tower-shaped building only had nine floors, it could compare to an ordinary building of more than twenty stories. It was very tall and looked full of an ancient atmosphere.

"I am Chinese and I really like ancient Chinese culture, so this entire Hongning Base, as well as this training camp, were built according to the style of ancient architecture."

Hong laughed. "In this training camp, the furniture is all ancient furniture. Some students arrive here and find that there are no sofas, not even televisions. Some of them are not used to it."

"However, the Pavilion Master is reasonable and allows everyone to be equipped with a laptop."

Zhu Xi added from the side.

"Truly a good place that combines the ancient and the modern."

Fang Yu praised.

"Daoist, we can go to that Nine-Story Building now. I think there are some things the Daoist might be interested in."

Hong spoke, leading everyone toward the Nine-Story Building.

Any students seen along the way were shocked repeatedly upon seeing Hong arrive. It seemed they had not expected this legendary figure to actually come. Each one of them was very excited because in the Elite Training Camp, Hong, this legendary existence, did not come often; the Elite Training Camp had enough teachers to instruct them.

They had not expected Hong to come in person now.

Suddenly, the entire training camp became excited.

And at this moment, Hong had already brought Fang Yu to a room.

In this room, there were only two sofas, and on these two sofas, there was a deep blue helmet placed on each.

"These two helmets are what we spent a lot of effort to imitate. They mimic the consciousness sensors of the virtual space equipment excavated from ancient civilization ruins. By putting on the helmet, one's consciousness enters a virtual space with 100% simulation, which can be said to be the same as the real world."

Hong spoke. "I don't know if the Daoist is interested in it. Perhaps the principles the Daoist wants to comprehend can be comprehended in this virtual space."

"Indeed... it is a good thing."
