Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

After escaping from the Blood Moon Tower, Jiang Wang had never slept a full night's sleep, so he slept particularly long this time.

He had many dreams, dreaming that he was killing people on the Sword Fighting Platform, dreaming that he was practicing and breaking through the clouds, dreaming that the sky was endless and the five streams of light were fast and unparalleled...

He woke up.

He sat up silently, leaning against the headboard, unable to distinguish whether the sudden feeling was palpitations or sadness.

He shook his head and calmed his mind.

At this time, it was already night outside the window, and he was the only one in the dormitory.

Jiang Wang frowned.

It was normal for Du Yehu to drink for a few days and nights, but Linghe had always followed the rules and was not likely to stay out all night.

The dormitory outside the Maple Forest Taoist Academy was a row of connected bungalows. He put on his clothes and went out. The door of the dormitory opposite was tightly closed, and the left and right neighbors were quiet, and the corridor was inexplicably cold.

"Linghe? I haven't seen him." The person replied in a very dull voice, shaking his head.

Bang!

His head suddenly broke off and fell to the ground, rolling a few times.

He broke his head!

Looking at the headless body that was just talking, Jiang Wang felt a chill rising from his tailbone and rushing to his head.

But he had experienced many battles after all, and he subconsciously took a step back, preparing to retreat to the dormitory first and at least take out his weapon.

But the dormitory door suddenly closed tightly and couldn't be pushed open! It seemed that there was someone in the room blocking the door and not letting him in.

At this time, the headless body turned around, opened its arms, and ran towards him! The head that fell on the ground suddenly bounced up after rolling a few times and hit Jiang Wang first! It had disheveled hair, twisted and fierce face, collapsed nose, and two bulging eyeballs.

The evil spirit of midnight, the vicious soul of death.

"Stop playing tricks!" Jiang Wang shouted, hoping to alert other disciples outside the dormitory, and jumped back.

This was the Maple Forest Taoist Academy, with Dong A, who had a fifth-grade cultivation base, sitting in town. Once he sensed any abnormality, he would definitely suppress it! No matter what strange and evil things, they would not dare to make too much noise. If he could escape directly, it would be the best plan.

But the speed at which the head bounced was too fast, and Jiang Wang couldn't escape in time.

So he took a few steps back, suddenly jumped into the air, poured one of the only two Dao Yuan in his meridians into his right leg, and then turned around and kicked back in the air!

With the explosion of Dao Yuan, his leg had far greater strength than before.

The image of gods, ghosts, and demons is not just a legend. Although Jiang Wang had not completely transcended, he had already seen the world beyond transcendence. He had killed people and seen blood, and had already sharpened his courage.

He told himself in his heart that it was a ball, not a head, just a ball!

Bang!

The sole of his boot collided with the head, and the head bounced back even faster than before, hitting the headless body that was running forward and causing it to stagger.

At the same time, Jiang Wang felt a sharp pain in the sole of his foot. It turned out that while he was kicking, the head opened its bloody mouth and bit off a piece of flesh from his shoe!

The wound was faintly blue.

Jiang Wang knew it was not good. It was probably the effect of corpse poison.

But his goal of attacking and blocking the enemy had been achieved, and he didn't hesitate anymore, turning around and running.

He ran a few steps to the end of the corridor, but was blocked by a transparent barrier of Yuan Qi.The force was not strong, but it was very resilient, firmly blocking his way. This was an ambush!

Jiang Wang's mind raced as the last Dao Yuan in his meridians burst and condensed on his right shoulder.

He exerted all his strength and rammed his shoulder forward!

"Open up!!!"

Jiang Wang felt his body lighten, and he had already escaped the aisle between the two dormitories.

Then he heard the sound of the wind, the chirping of insects, and the voices of the outer disciples returning at night... the sounds of the night.

The tranquil environment was shattered.

"Senior Brother Jiang Wang, what are you doing?"

"Senior Brother, how did you get injured?"

Some outer disciples who saw Jiang Wang came over to greet him.

Jiang Wang heard the familiar greetings from his fellow disciples and realized that he was safe. He turned back and rushed back to the aisle, which was indeed empty.

The headless body and the head had disappeared.

Someone pushed open the doors on both sides of the dormitory and asked in confusion, "What's going on? Why couldn't we open the door just now?"

And there was a frightened voice shouting, "Dead... someone's dead!"

Jiang Wang was the first to rush into the dormitory where the screams came from, and he discovered the missing headless corpse. He and his head were lying quietly on the ground, their appearance still fierce.

His roommate was trembling in the corner, obviously panicked.

The opponent had at least used the Necromancy technique that leaned towards the Left Path and the orthodox Water Dao technique. Or rather, there was more than one opponent.

Jiang Wang's mind raced, and he decisively spoke up, "A demonic person broke into the outer court at night and committed murder, practicing Dao techniques and already transcending the mortal realm! Their strength should be within the ninth-grade range. All fellow disciples must take care of themselves and move in groups of five, responding to each other! Starting now, seal off the dormitory area and do not allow anyone to enter or leave. I will immediately go to consult with the senior brothers in the inner court!"

The panicked outer disciples suddenly had a leader and followed his orders.

Jiang Wang turned around and ran towards the inner court.

The entire east side of the city was the affiliated industry of Fenglin Daoist Temple and the Daoist Temple, but strictly speaking, only the courtyard surrounded by high walls in the middle of the east city could be considered the real Fenglin Daoist Temple. Outer disciples like Jiang Wang lived scattered around the Daoist Temple.

Compared to the tall archway and the luxurious jade lion in front of the outer court, the door of the inner court was much smaller, barely enough for four people to walk side by side. Just from the halo of light and the carved dragon and phoenix on the plaque hidden in the night, one could see the exquisite craftsmanship.

There was a small pavilion in front of the door of the inner court, with only two flowing cloud lanterns hanging in front and a single ice grass cushion inside. A handsome Daoist in a hemp robe was sitting on the cushion, practicing with his eyes closed. This was Li Jianqiu, the inner disciple on duty today.

Jiang Wang rushed here and bowed hastily, "Senior Brother Li, a demonic person from the Left Path is committing murder in the outer court, and one of our fellow disciples has been killed! Please take charge of the situation!"

For outer disciples, every inner disciple who embarked on the path of cultivation was a star-like figure. Having been in the Daoist Temple for so long, Jiang Wang was naturally familiar with them. As for Li Jianqiu, as someone who had boldly initiated a Daoist challenge and attracted the attention of the dean to officiate, he was naturally not an unknown person. Moreover, as the one on duty, it was his responsibility.

Therefore, he only listened to one sentence before drawing his sword and standing up.

"No need." A majestic voice sounded, causing Li Jianqiu to immediately sheathe his sword and bow.

Dean Dong A appeared at the door of the inner court, with a cold and even ugly expression. "I'll handle this.""Corpse Qi." He looked at the wound on Jiang Wang's foot that was torn open by the flying head's bite, and raised his index finger. Without any other movement, a blue spike had already formed.

It was only then that Jiang Wang noticed that the wound on his foot had already become infected and was now oozing black blood, causing fear to well up in his heart.

"Third-grade middle-level Dao technique, Poison-Devouring Spike. This technique is very practical and can be used in the middle stage."

Dong Ayi explained casually while lightly tapping his index finger.

Besides transcendental Dao techniques, general Dao techniques were divided into four grades and twelve levels. The vast ocean of Dao techniques could never be fully explored in one's lifetime. Every Dao cultivator who embarked on the path of transcendence must be clear about what kind of Dao technique suited them best, and form their own battle system through continuous fighting and exploration.

The spike was inserted into Jiang Wang's foot wound and rapidly turned black to the naked eye. In just a few breaths, the blue spike had turned completely black, and the wound was no longer blackish but was now bleeding red.

Jiang Wang quickly tore off a piece of his clothes and bandaged the wound.

Li Jianqiu watched silently, lost in thought.

It was only then that Dong Ayi asked, "What happened?"

Jiang Wang briefly recounted the incident in the simplest language and did not express any further opinions. He believed, and could only believe, that the dean of the Maple Forest City Dao Academy would give him justice for the incident of him being assassinated in the academy.

Dong Ayi's lips curled slightly, and his serious expression made his smile particularly chilly.

"Those who practice unorthodox methods dare to come to the Maple Forest City Dao Academy to cause trouble. They don't put the academy and me, Dong Ayi, in their eyes!"

He spread out his Dao robe, opened his five fingers, and pressed down on the ground!

"Jade Cage!"

With his five fingers as the center, the invisible wood-based power spread in all directions.

The entire academy's gates slammed shut and branches grew out, wildly expanding.

The ivy on the academy walls shot up like snakes and intertwined in mid-air.

All wooden objects in the academy underwent strange changes.

Chairs sprouted branches, windows grew claws, giant trees broke through the soil, and thorns danced wildly!

In an instant, the entire Maple Forest Dao Academy had turned into a blue cage under the cover of night!
