Chapter 993 Sword Crown’s Leaving, Penglai Island Appears, The Academy’s Action

“Master, I wish to leave,” the Sword Crown said after a slight hesitation.

“Alright. I understand,” Chu Kuangren replied with a nod.

“Master, aren’t you going to ask me where I’m going?” “Oceanic Sword Grave, am I right?”

The Sword Crown nodded. “You’re right. I have to settle the score between the Saber Crown and me once and for all.”

Many years ago, his defeat traumatized him and left him with a mental hurdle that he could not overcome. He and the Saber Crown were destined to fight each other again in a rematch.

Two days later, the Sword Crown left.

His trip to the Oceanic Sword Grave held many uncertainties as he might not even make it back alive. However, there was no turning back for him anymore.

“If I can make it back alive, I will come back to you again and follow you to the edge of the world without a doubt.”

The Sword Crown smiled before he left.

Nevertheless, Chu Kuangren rolled his eyes at him.

He had never seen someone forecasting their death so obviously.

After the Sword Crown left, Chu Kuangren was greeted with a pleasant surprise. The Godly Awakening Wine that he brewed earlier was done.

Looking at the ten urns of Godly Awakening Wine, he could not help but lick his lips excitedly. “This wine can put one in a state of epiphany and deduce all the knowledge learned. It’s going to be helpful for me at this

stage.”

He then took all ten urns of wine and went into closed-door meditation.

While he was away cultivating, a fierce battle happened on the sea somewhere in Planquilon Immortal World.

Several cultivators were fighting an oceanic beast. The terrifying energy from the battle wreaked havoc across the surface, causing the waters to rumble violently.

A while later, the cultivators finally managed to kill the oceanic beasts.

“Phew, we finally did it,” one of the cultivators said.

After that, the group harvested the beast’s blood, skin, meat, bone, and every other material that could aid their cultivation.

However, one of the cultivators then screamed in shock and pointed in a certain direction. Horrified, he shouted, “Look! Look at that! What is that?!”

An enormous shadow slowly emerged from the misty ocean, and they could feel a surge of vast yet ancient energy in the air.

When the shadow finally emerged from its mysterious veil, the scene caused everyone to gasp in shock.

It was an enormous island.

Immortal Sparks glimmered across the island. Countless fragmented and intact restriction seals were set all over the place. From time to time, all kinds of rare treasures and mystical beasts could be seen, arousing one’s jealousy. “What island is this?!”

“Why haven’t I heard anything about this before?”

“This ancient energy… This is not rare. Could this be the legendary Immortal island, Penglai Island?!” exclaimed one of the more knowledgeable cultivators.

At the mention of the Immortal island, everyone’s pupils trembled in awe. As they looked at the island, their eyes grew fanatic.

“The Immortal island, Penglai… This is the place where Immortals and Buddhas would come for pilgrimage! Oh my god, why would it show up here?!”

“Penglai Island… According to the rumors in the ancient Immortal World, this place is the Daoist ground for the Heavenly Grandmaster, the ruler of the largest sect in the Immortal World, the Jie Sect. I thought it was destroyed during the Immortal War! Why is it here?”

“This isn’t all of Penglai Island. It’s just a fraction of it. Even so, it must hold unimaginable Opportunities of Fortunes… Hurry up. Let’s go in there…”

All the cultivators that witnessed Penglai Island’s emergence were deeply shocked, and every one of them flew towards the island for an expedition.

Although the island was just a fragment of the whole, the restriction seals around it were not something common cultivators could break. Many died trying to get in.

Despite the risk, many cultivators went over like a flock of birds just to seize the Jie Sect’s Opportunities of Fortune.

The news of Penglai Island’s emergence spread across Planquilon Immortal World like wildfire, and all the orthodoxies reacted to it almost immediately.

Planquilon Immortal World was once again in turmoil.

The Battle of Destiny had not even begun, and yet Penglai Island had emerged.

The consecutive events put the entire Planquilon Immortal World into chaos.

Back at Hundred Academy, Chu Kuangren was living a dreamy life with his ten urns of wine. He did not care about what happened in the outside world.

However, the higher-ups of the academy dared not delay their response to the emergence.

The emergence of Penglai Island shook even the ancient immortal orthodoxies, especially those Immortals who had lived long enough to know what the island represented.

The pilgrimage of a myriad of Immortals and Buddhas!

That particular sentence had enormous weight in it.

Although there were voices that questioned the exaggeration, it was enough to describe how grand Penglai Island once was back in the day.

Even if only a fraction of the island emerged, no one knew what it contained. It might even contain the inheritance left behind from the ancient times when the island was whole.

At Heaven One Court, the teachers were talking about the emergence.

“Penglai Island is an important issue. It cannot afford any delay. I suggest we bring Gu Liufang, Gu Wuqing, and the other students along in the expedition,” the Seventh Master said.

“The other orthodoxies might already have responded to this.”

“If so, we must hurry.” “Should we bring Thirteenth?” the Fourth Master asked.

Thirteenth was referring to Chu Kuangren, the Thirteenth Master of the academy.

“Has Thirteenth come out from closed-door meditation?”

“I’ll go have a look,” the Fourth Master said in a rather helpless tone.

When the Fourth Master arrived at Chu Kuangren’s place, he saw Lan Yu and Lil Fox. However, Chu Kuangren’s room remained closed. There were no restriction seals outside, and he could even smell the scent of alcohol in the air.

No one knew what Chu Kuangren was doing inside.

‘Could he be drunk?’ the Fourth Master thought.

Chu Kuangren was not an alcoholic, at least not to the Fourth Master’s knowledge.

She shook her head to discard the thought. The Thirteenth Master of the academy had too many secrets, and it was not easy trying to learn more about him.

“Ms. Lan Yu, has the Thirteenth Master come out of cultivation?”

The Fourth Master usually called the other teachers whose ranks were lower than her by their numbers, such as Eleventh, Twelfth, Old Seventh, Old Sixth, and more.

However, she added master when addressing Chu Kuangren. The other Masters did the same as well because Chu Kuangren was very knowledgeable. Even though they were Masters of the academy that others believed to be the most knowledgeable teachers, they were still in awe of Chu Kuangren’s knowledge.

Ever since Chu Kuangren became a Master of the academy, he was not just a Master to the students but to his fellow Masters as well.

“Not yet.” Lan Yu shook her head before she added, “I heard about Penglai Island’s emergence. Are you here for that matter?”

The Fourth Master nodded. “Yes. The Eldest Master, Seventh Master, and I will bring some students over for an expedition. The Opportunities of Fortune on Penglai Island are huge. Even the academy cannot turn a blind eye to it.”

“I want to go along too,” Lan Yu said after glancing at Chu Kuangren’s closed doors. She could not remain a follower to her master forever, so she ought to seize the Opportunities of Fortunes herself and become stronger.

Penglai Island would be a great opportunity for her.

“I want to go too!” Lil Fox jumped around happily.

The Fourth Master thought about it for a while and nodded. “Of course.”

Lan Yu could already rival other Immortal Progenies in terms of strength. Even Gu Liufang and Gu Wuqing might not have the confidence to win her in a battle.

She was already on her way to becoming an Immortal.

As for Lil Fox, her divine talent in ignoring restriction seals might be of great help to the expedition to Penglai Island.

With that, Lan Yu and Lil Fox prepared themselves and left with the Fourth Master, the Eldest Master, and Seventh Master.

All the other orthodoxies in Planquilon Immortal World reacted to the emergence in their own ways. Countless cultivators headed towards Penglai Island, and it was as lively as when the Ancient Immortal Battlefield emerged.
