"Thank you, Palace Master Mo and all the elders."
Lin Ye bowed to Palace Master Mo and the elders present and said.
No matter what, he was still a student of Paladin Academy. Entering the Dragon Blood Pool to recuperate and cultivate was also unanimously approved by Palace Master Mo and the other Elders. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to have the opportunity to enter the Dragon Blood Pool.
Without the Dragon Blood Pool, his Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon wouldn't have reached the second transformation so easily.
"You are a student of Shengwu College."
"With your talent, you are qualified to enter the Dragon Blood Pool."
"Being able to defeat HuangFu JingLei with ease has indeed surprised us. You've done well. You must have obtained a lot of opportunities in the secret realm. Now, go to the Saint Martial Palace and pay your respects to the previous Palace Lords of the Academy."
Palace Master Mo waved his hand with a smile on his face.
Shengwu College was indeed lucky to have such a monster in Shengwu College.
If it wasn't for the new secret realm, Shengwu College wouldn't have known that there was such a monster in Shengwu College. At that time, everyone knew that Lin Ye was an incredible genius.
Now that Lin Ye had defeated Huangfu Jinglei, survived the sneak attack of a Manifestation Realm cultivator, and even seriously injured him, it was even more unexpected. Such a monster was too heaven-defying.
He was definitely not comparable to a genius with an Emperor Physique.
The elders and Palace Master Mo already suspected that Lin Ye was a Saint Physique.
"Disciple obeys."
Lin Ye nodded and addressed them as disciple.
What he didn't expect was that Palace Master Mo and the elders would personally follow Lin Ye to the Martial Saint Palace.
Naturally, he didn't know the reason why Palace Master Mo and the elders went to the Martial Saint Palace. It was because the Martial Saint Palace had something to investigate Lin Ye's identity. If Lin Ye was a spy sent by other sects, Lin Ye's true identity would be revealed.
This was also Shengwu College's strict attitude towards the identity of a super genius. It was to prevent them from helping enemy sects cultivate a super expert.
Martial Saint Palace
It was actually right behind the Sacred Martial Palace.
In other words, the Martial Saint Palace was an ancestral hall where the memorial tablets of the past Palace Masters and Elders of Shengwu College were enshrined. It was related to the fate and future of Shengwu College.
Soon, Lin Ye and the others arrived at the Martial Saint Hall.
Upon seeing the Martial Saint Palace, Lin Ye was shocked.
It was a tall statue that exuded an aura of disdain for the world. The entire statue was lifelike. In front of the statue, it gave people a feeling that they could not hide. It was as if the statue could see through everything.
Lin Ye was shaken. He felt that he wasn't facing a statue, but a god, a god that could destroy the heavens and earth.
"This is the first Palace Master of Shengwu College."
"Later generations called him the Holy Martial Emperor."
When Palace Head Mo and the rest saw that Lin Ye didn't have any reaction to the statue, they were elated. This meant that Lin Ye wasn't a spy. At the very least, Lin Ye wasn't a disciple of another sect.
Of course, in fact, Shengwu College had already investigated Lin Ye's identity.
The only thing they didn't find out was where Lin Ye came from. They only found out that Lin Ye came from the Hundred Thousand Mountains and knew nothing else.
"Junior disciple Lin Ye pays his respects to the Holy Martial Emperor."
Lin Ye bowed respectfully to the statue.
In his heart, he was extremely respectful.
This was the first Palace Master of Shengwu College, known as the Holy Martial Emperor. Just this title alone wasn't something that a peerless powerhouse could have. One could imagine how powerful the Holy Martial Emperor was at that time.
He was in awe of powerhouses.
This was a cycle. If he didn't respect the powerhouses, he wouldn't be respected by others in the future.
"Except for the first Palace Master."
"Shengwu College has gone through 1,380 generations of Palace Masters."
"Every Palace Master has made great contributions to Shengwu College. This Palace Master left Shengwu College 50 years ago and hasn't appeared since. Some time ago, the Palace Master's life card was destroyed."
Palace Head Mo pointed to the memorial tablets in the ancestral hall.
In every era, there would be a Palace Master, a Deputy Palace Master, and ten elders.
Over the years, there had been tens of thousands of memorial tablets in the ancestral hall.
In the ancestral hall, only the Palace Master had an image. No one else was qualified to leave an image.
Lin Ye looked at the memorial tablet of the current Palace Master. When he saw the image on the memorial tablet, he was completely stunned.
"Sir."
Seeing the image on the memorial tablet, Lin Ye was stunned.
This was because he found that the image was his Sir. His Sir, who had lived with him for 15 years, took care of him since he was young, taught him how to be a good person, and was also his only family.
However, he didn't expect that his Sir was the Palace Master of Shengwu College.
Moreover, his Sir had passed away.
Only a Palace Master who had passed away would leave a memorial tablet in the ancestral hall.
"You know the Palace Master?"
Palace Head Mo and a few elders couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Lin Ye's appearance.
"Yes."
"He is my Sir. He taught me for 15 years."
"Palace Head Mo, when did Sir pass away?"
Lin Ye was sure that the image on the memorial tablet was his Sir. After living with him for 15 years, he naturally wouldn't be mistaken.
"About half a month before the college recruited disciples."
"Although the Palace Master has disappeared for 50 years, his life card has always been intact, which proves that he is still alive. However, some time ago, his life card was discovered to be destroyed."
"The destruction of his life card means that the Palace Master has passed away and is no longer in this world."
Palace Head Mo said.
He looked at Lin Ye and was extremely surprised.
From Lin Ye's eyes and tone, he knew that Lin Ye wasn't lying, and there was no need for him to lie. He didn't expect that this heaven-defying monster was the disciple of the Palace Master.
No wonder the Palace Master had disappeared for 50 years and passed away, but a heaven-defying monster appeared.
"How is this possible?"
"When I left, Sir was still fine."
"Calculating the time, the time I left was the time when Sir passed away."
Tears rolled down Lin Ye's cheeks.
A man doesn't cry easily unless he is heartbroken.
His only family member who lived with him disappeared just like that. He wasn't a heartless person, so he was naturally sad. In his heart, Sir was like a father and a brother.
"Where did you and the Palace Master live?"
Palace Head Mo was also a little puzzled.
He didn't know what the Palace Master had been doing for the past 50 years.
Since Lin Ye appeared in the Yunshui Kingdom, the Palace Master should not be far from Shengwu College. However, why didn't the Palace Master return to Shengwu College? Moreover, Lin Ye came out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
It was also possible that the Palace Master had been in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
"Sir and I have been living in the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
"We haven't left for 15 years."
"This time, it was Sir who asked me to leave."
Lin Ye explained briefly.
There was no need for him to hide it. The Hundred Thousand Mountains were so terrifying that even if someone wanted to go in, it was impossible. He wasn't worried that someone would find the place where he and Sir lived.
"It's really the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
"Go to the place where the Palace Master meditates."
"See if there are any clues."
When Palace Head Mo heard Lin Ye mention the Hundred Thousand Mountains, he couldn't help but come to a realization.
Because the Palace Master had mentioned the Hundred Thousand Mountains a long time ago. Not long after that, the Palace Master disappeared, but they couldn't enter the deepest part of the Hundred Thousand Mountains to find the Palace Master.
Not to mention them, even with the Palace Master's cultivation, he might not be able to enter the deepest part of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
The other elders had also confirmed that Lin Ye was the disciple of the Palace Master.
The cultivation places of the previous Palace Masters were all in the Palace Master's Hall.
Lin Ye, the elders, and Palace Master Mo came to the Palace Master's Hall.
However, other than Lin Ye, the others stayed outside the Palace Master's Hall because they were not qualified to enter. Only the Palace Master and the personal disciples of the Palace Master were qualified to enter.
The Palace Master's Hall was empty.
Although no one had lived here for decades, this place was still spotless.
Lin Ye stepped into the Palace Master's Hall and immediately sensed a familiar aura.
In the Palace, a shadow appeared.
Seeing this shadow, Lin Ye was extremely excited, but then he was sad.
"Sir."
Lin Ye shouted.
This was Sir's shadow. It was left behind by Sir. However, Sir had already died and left behind this shadow.
"You came here."
"It means that I have disappeared."
"This is the only thing I left for you. I didn't contribute much to Shengwu College and have let Shengwu College down. In the future, help Shengwu College and treat the people of the Sky-sea Realm well."
The shadow was calm and there was no emotion in his tone.
As his voice fell, the shadow gradually dissipated. At the same time, a sword-like light appeared out of thin air. The light ignored everything and entered between Lin Ye's eyebrows and finally entered his mind.
At this moment, Lin Ye was completely stunned. Everything in the outside world seemed to be isolated.
"The God of the Sword Domain, the World of Nothingness."
"Where the Sword Dao is, it is invincible."
"If the Twelve Swords are at the pinnacle."
"If the Sword is merciless, all things will be destroyed."
"If the Sword is merciless, all things will be revived."
"…"
In Lin Ye's mind, a fine sword light was spinning.
Streams of information were emitted from the sword light.
Although it was called a sword light, it was actually a fine sword, a mini sword. However, it gave people an obscure and profound feeling. It could destroy everything. It gave people a feeling of invincibility and indestructibility.
He was in the Palace Master's Hall. The people outside did not know the situation inside the Palace Master's Hall.
However, Palace Master Mo and a few elders heard a faint voice.
"This old man has contributed nothing to Shengwu College."
"However, this old man will give you a future."
"A new era is about to arrive."
A few elders and Palace Master Mo were very familiar with this voice.
This was because this voice belonged to the current Palace Master. Although he had died, he had left behind a will. Hearing the Palace Master's words, the elders and Palace Master could not help but be stunned.
Immediately, they understood the meaning of the Palace Master's words.
A day later, Lin Ye left the Palace Master's Hall.
His entire person was filled with a trace of loneliness and sadness.
Mister was no longer here.
In the future, he would never see Mister again because Mister had died. As for how Mister died, he did not know. The only thing he knew was that Mister had long known that he would come to Shengwu College.
The elders and Palace Master Mo outside the Palace Master's Hall were very curious when they saw Lin Ye come out.
